Wizard: I crush legends with martial arts.

Chapter 163 The Dragon?

Alphonse felt a chill run down his spine just by getting close.

All the hair on his body stood on end involuntarily.

A feeling of fear welled up inside me.

The oppressive aura emanating from it is likely even greater than that of Queen Junon, a member of the Sword Saint class.

There must be a terrifying creature dwelling in that huge cave.

Alphonse's curiosity had been completely suppressed by fear.

Just as I was about to slip away, a series of roaring sounds came from my ears.

A particularly rough and loud voice, like a roar, uttered rapid and strange syllables in a rhythmic and varied manner.

Alphonse couldn't understand it, but he could tell that the voice was full of malice.

The pressure intensified, causing Alphonse's body to stiffen.

Heavy footsteps sounded, shaking the earth, and a giant beast, eight or nine meters tall, emerged from the cave entrance.

Alphonse finally saw the entire shape of the giant beast clearly.

dragon?

This was the first time Alphonse had ever seen a creature resembling a giant dragon in another world.

But it is not the legendary Western dragon with a pair of bat-like fleshy wings, resembling a large lizard.

It only has a dragon-like head, but only a single, enormous horn on its head, with its fangs sticking out.

Its entire body is covered with a dark carapace, but it is not scales. The carapace is layered, arranged very closely and regularly.

It was cold and shiny, radiating a metallic luster, just like armor forged through countless hammer blows.

Dragons certainly don't wear armor; that's just their own shell.

Alphonse also saw sharp, pointed spikes on his back, like steel crystals, growing upwards and extending down his back.

What's most terrifying is its pair of eyes.

His pupils were dark gold, with a dark vertical line running through them. Just being stared at made Alphonse feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body chilled.

Incomparably majestic and awe-inspiring, indescribably ferocious!

Just looking at it gives you the creeps!

Earth dragons in Western fantasy anime don't look like this.

The strange syllables continued to ring incessantly, reaching Alphonse's ears.

I can't understand a word of it.

Alphonse suddenly had an idea.

Could this awe-inspiring pressure be the legendary dragon's might?

The strange dragon was accelerating; it was moving incredibly fast, and its enormous size did not hinder its speed.

With its mouth full of sharp teeth open, a flash of white light appeared, and a large breath filled with ice crystals shot out like lightning.

Alphonse shrank back in alarm, stepping on the sword light and dodging with a swift turn.

Instantly, a fierce wind rushed towards them, and huge, sharp claws slammed down.

There wasn't even a chance to dodge it.

It seemed to be waiting for me to dodge.

In the nick of time, a shadowy warrior suddenly appeared in front of Alphonse, wielding his dark longsword to meet the giant claw.

It is the shadow warrior formed by Riske.

Because of his powerful combat strength, when Alphonse unleashed his Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi, he deliberately preserved him and did not condense him into sword qi as well.

At the same time, Alphonse transformed into a silver-haired, red-eyed form and activated his protective aura to shield his body.

Riske, who possessed seventy to eighty percent of the Sword Saint's strength, was actually torn to shreds in the instant he clashed with the claws.

It was as easy as tearing a piece of thin paper.

The claws slammed solidly into Alphonse.

With a loud "boom," Alphonse was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

A sweet taste rose in his throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, spraying through the air.

My mouth tasted like rust.

Every part of my body aches.

There was no time to release the force.

Fortunately, Riske blocked the attack first, and his protective aura also served its purpose, so Alphonse was only injured by the incredibly powerful force.

The dragon gave chase.

Alphonse made a sudden thought, and a deep, dark vortex appeared out of thin air, from which a fierce, black sword beam shot out.

The invisible sword energy, capable of piercing through the body, struck the massive claw that was swinging towards it with perfect accuracy.

With a deafening roar, a flash of dark light appeared, and clearly visible spatial ripples spread more than ten feet from the center of the sword energy.

The surrounding hard ground was shattered into dust by the aftershocks of the sword energy.

Within a radius of several feet, many deep ravines have been cracked open.

This invisible sword energy, capable of piercing through the body, finally injured the giant dragon.

It injured its claws, shattered its outer shell which resembled steel armor, revealing the flesh and bones with a metallic sheen.

Bright red blood gushed out like a fountain.

The dragon followed suit with a deafening roar.

It seemed to be furious that it had been injured by a human the size of a tiny insect.

Alphonse's eardrums were so vibrated that he completely lost the ability to distinguish sounds.

This is a very bad situation.

Human reason, and the cry from the depths of the soul, are both warning me.

This is not an opponent that can be defeated by force.

There is absolutely no chance of winning.

In the eyes of this dragon, he was nothing more than prey, like a tiny insect.

Without further hesitation, he waved his hand and retrieved the Shadow Warrior, who had reformed his form.

A surge of blood-red light erupted from his body, enveloping him instantly.

Alphonse transformed into a streak of blood-red light, like a crimson rainbow, and fled with incredible speed.

This is the Blood Escape Technique of the Ten Directions Holy Sect, which is not easily used unless one's life is in danger.

The price to pay is severe damage to our vitality.

But to be able to save one's life is a stroke of luck.

Alphonse flew aimlessly for a long distance, the bloody light gradually dissipating, but he still dared not stop, using all his strength to desperately flee with his toe sword.

They didn't know how far they had run, but when their senses could no longer detect any signs of being pursued, they finally stopped.

Alphonse bent over, his hands on his knees, breathing heavily, cold sweat streaming down his body.

My lungs still felt burning hot, and my muscles were throbbing with pain.

I've never been this disheveled since I transmigrated to this other world.

This place is actually inhabited by such a terrifying giant dragon.

The faint call still lingered.

It did come from that cave, but Alphonse was certain it didn't come from the dragon.

It seemed that the giant dragon was guarding something strange.

Alphonse, however, had given up on the idea of ​​finding out more.

Natural treasures belong to the capable.

If you can defeat them, the treasure will naturally be yours.

What can you do if you can't beat them?

This trip was a huge loss!

I just peeked in.

It then used up almost all of the remaining necromantic energy.

Even after killing so many demonic beasts and accumulating a massive amount of necromantic energy, it was only enough to unleash three intangible sword energies that pierced through the body.

With insufficient cultivation, he could not fully unleash the formless sword energy that pierced the body. Although its power had increased in this other world, it was still far from his peak.

Unless he can find a place to cultivate properly and break through his cultivation level, he can consider fighting that dragon again.

Right now, I need to treat my injuries first.
