Chapter 185: Terrifying Gravity

"You have such a temper? I haven't even spoken yet, and you already started attacking?"

Watching the black gas gradually enveloping himself, Su Hao couldn't help but let out a light laugh.

Originally he was still thinking, seeing if he could extract some of the black dragon's purpose from the Shadow Priest's mouth.

Anyway, Su Hao didn't believe that the black dragon went to all that trouble just to kill the Shadow Priest.

Moreover, from what the Shadow Priest had said earlier, Su Hao could confirm one thing.

The grudge between the black dragon and the Shadow Priest is absolutely not as simple as the black dragon claimed.

However, looking at the Shadow Priest's current state, it was obvious he had no interest in talking, and Su Hao also didn't want to waste the effort.

If the Shadow Priest can withstand the Black Dragon Breath, we can have a good chat later.

Afterwards, Su Hao stopped thinking further, seeing the black gas around him, he was about to wrap his own body inside it.

He immediately took out the Dark Dragon Pearl from his bosom, generating a black light shield on his body's surface, firmly blocking all the black gas outside his body.

Then, relying on the protection of that black light shield, Su Hao slowly walked toward the direction where the black cloak was.

"Not bad defensive power; it seems that black dragon hasn't been idle these years."

Looking at that black light shield outside Su Hao's body, the eyes of the black-clad figure couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, and he took a deep look at the black dragon pearl in Su Hao's hand.

It was obvious that he had realized that black light shield was emitted by that dragon pearl.

And the reason he felt a black dragon's aura on Su Hao was precisely because of that dragon pearl.

However, after observing for a moment, his gaze shifted from surprise to contempt.

"Alas, the black dragon's condition has been declining these years, while my injuries have been gradually recovering."

"Now I have recovered to Supernatural Fifth Rank strength; you, a mere Supernatural Second Rank, even with that treasure in hand, cannot hope to withstand my attack."

As he spoke, an even more terrifying pressure emanated from above the Shadow Priest's cloak.

The black gas drifting around Su Hao also became more imposing at this moment, and Su Hao felt that the attacks within the black gas were constantly changing.

After a moment, Su Hao felt as if a great mountain were pressing on his body, making his steps difficult.

With each step he now took, he could leave a deep footprint on the ground, half of his lower leg sunk into the earth.

The closer he got to the Shadow Priest, the greater the pressure on Su Hao's body became, and his movements grew increasingly inconvenient.

Even later, under this heavy pressure, strands of bright red blood seeped out from Su Hao's pores.

Damn it, whether from the name Shadow Priest or from this village shrouded in darkness, shouldn't this be a Supernatural capable of controlling shadow power?

How did this turn into using the power to control gravity? Before I came, the black dragon never told me about this!

But soon, Su Hao understood the reason.

Actually, his thought wasn't wrong; the Shadow Priest's main ability is indeed controlling shadow.

It's just that this dragon pearl crafted by the black dragon was specifically made to counter the Shadow Priest's main ability.

Under the protection of this black light shield, even if the Shadow Priest's momentum kept increasing, the surrounding black gas could not affect Su Hao in the slightest.

However, the Shadow Priest was once a peak Supernatural Sixth Rank, and now he still has Supernatural Fifth Rank combat power; how could losing the means to control shadow render him completely combat incapable? Controlling gravity for attack is likewise a specialty of the Shadow Priest.

After all, the shield emitted by the Black Dragon Shield is not merely capable of resisting shadow energy attacks.

This shield itself possesses extremely strong defensive power.

For an ordinary Supernatural Fifth Rank, before the energy inside the pearl is exhausted, wanting to break this shield is an extremely difficult task.

Thus, after several attempts, the Shadow Priest resorted to using gravity control as an attack method.

Although the Black Dragon Shield has decent defensive power, ordinary Supernatural Fifth Rank attacks struggle to break it.

However, besides perfectly blocking shadow energy attacks, the Black Dragon Shield cannot completely block other attacks; some energy will seep through the shield.

Among them, the most effective is the gravity control attack method, which is also why the Shadow Priest uses this attack method.

Under the continual gravity attacks from the black gas, Su Hao reached a point about ten meters in front of the Shadow Priest where he could no longer move forward, his body's surface soaked with bright red blood.

As for the skeleton warriors Su Hao brought in, they all turned into piles of black bone powder under the corrosion of the black gas and the ever-increasing gravity.

Crack!

At that moment, a series of cracking sounds came from Su Hao's body, and numerous cracks appeared in his internal black bones.

If this continues, before long Su Hao's internal bones will break apart, collapsing like a puddle of mud.

"You're truly foolish, not even weighing your own strength, daring to meddle in a Supernatural Sixth Rank's affairs, really thinking that the magic treasure the black dragon gave you makes you invincible?"

Seeing Su Hao even struggling to move, the Shadow Priest couldn't help but let out a mocking laugh.

In his view, Su Hao had already reached his limit, and the gravity he could still release had a bit of leftover power, but he also didn't let his guard down because, logically, the black dragon had prepared for many years.

Even if it's because in the dark dungeon he hadn't encountered anyone of higher Supernatural rank, which forced him to reluctantly send a Supernatural Second Rank to carry out the mission.

But the black dragon certainly wouldn't just hand over a pearl capable of emitting a shield to that person and let him come to die.

The Shadow Priest was quite certain that Su Hao still had other trump cards given to him by the black dragon.

And this trump card likely needed to be used at close range, which is why Su Hao has been constantly approaching from the start.

Su Hao, this Supernatural Second Rank, the Shadow Priest could disregard, but the black dragon, once a Supernatural Sixth Rank, he had to be wary of.

Precisely because of this concern, the Shadow Priest did not let his guard down at all, continuing to apply gravity without cease.

Gradually, Su Hao's internal bones broke one by one, his entire body firmly pressed to the ground by the powerful gravity.

Flesh, bones, and organs mixed together into a puddle of meat, tightly adhering to the ground, and the black dragon pearl sank into that meat puddle.

"Tch! I thought it would bring me some surprise, but I didn't expect it to be just this level!"

Looking at that puddle of weakly breathing meat on the ground, the Shadow Priest couldn't help but shake his head, his heart growing ever more contemptuous.

Seeing the meat puddle's breath grow ever weaker, the Shadow Priest gradually stopped paying attention to it.

After that, another ten or so minutes passed, and the black dragon pearl wrapped in the meat puddle suddenly emitted a faint light.

Su Hao endured all that beating, waiting precisely for this moment! (End of chapter)
