Wizard: I crush legends with martial arts.

Chapter 178 Challenging the Dragon

The giant python and the dragon did not engage in combat.

It was a completely one-sided, brutal killing.

The enormous python seemed to submit, offering no resistance whatsoever, as if it had become a sacrifice to ensure the survival of its kind.

The dragon merely swung its claws a few times, and the giant python was sliced ​​into several pieces, twitching on the rocky ground.

That was an instinctive reaction, not a form of resistance.

Should we ambush it while it's devouring the giant python's flesh?

The thought suddenly occurred to Alphonse.

We'll have to wait a bit longer. Those two giant pythons shouldn't have gone far yet. It would be quite troublesome for the dragon to summon them back to help in the battle, as it's difficult for him to deal with three giant beasts all by himself.

After breaking through the realm, one can more truly sense the power of this giant dragon; it is the king of this cave.

It's not comparable to the fire dragon in the lava lake.

While he was pondering, the dragon had already picked up a piece of flesh and was gnawing and chewing on it.

Alphonse was pondering how to launch a sneak attack.

Suddenly, a voice, as if roaring, exceptionally rough and grand, rang out, uttering a strange howl with a rhythmic cadence.

The dragon turned its head and looked over, its orange-yellow vertical pupils gleaming with ferocity.

Alphonse couldn't understand what its roar meant, but it already knew that its whereabouts had been exposed.

That roar was filled with malice.

The method of concealing one's presence is definitely not a problem!

There's only one explanation: smell!

I stayed in the second-level lava lake for so long without taking a shower.

Alphonse could imagine how slovenly he looked.

I've gotten used to the smell myself, so I didn't find it strange.

Even the best-laid plans can have flaws!

Depend on!

The strange roars continued to thunder, as if the air itself was vibrating.

The dragon actually made an extremely human-like expression; its mouth, with its fangs exposed, seemed to be laughing.

A hideous and terrifying grin!

Alphonse, on the contrary, calmed down.

Although it was somewhat rushed, the decision to fight them had been made long ago.

Let's go then!

The moment the thought crossed his mind, the shadow of the fire dragon suddenly appeared.

In an instant, countless jet-black magic circles appeared in the air, shooting out beams of dark light that attacked the dragon.

At the same time, black smoke also rose from the crater-like holes on the dragon's back, and countless black orbs of light suddenly flew out to join the attack.

The simultaneous activation of these techniques at this moment can be considered quite impressive.

Although its power is far less than before, and it no longer has the high temperature, it has a corrosive effect.

The prerequisite is that it can hit the target.

The dragon seemed startled when it saw the shadow of the fire dragon appear, but it quickly recovered in the face of the barrage of attacks.

It has an extremely strong ability to dodge and is incredibly fast.

Its movements could even be described as elegant.

Alphonse has extensive combat experience and is extremely confident in his agility, but he was still somewhat shocked after witnessing the dragon's dodging techniques.

This was almost martial arts-like dodging and weaving; if it weren't for its enormous size, the Shadow Fire Dragon's attacks would have missed completely.

It was only grazed a few times, which only corroded some of its shell and did not cause any real damage to its body.

While dodging, the dragon also launched a counterattack.

Without warning, many thick, sharp rock spikes emerged from beneath the Shadow Fire Dragon and shot into the sky.

In an instant, the shadow fire dragon's figure was blasted apart.

Alphonse is in the same position.

But Alphonse, with his keen senses, had already sensed something was wrong and leaped away, dodging the attack of the earth spikes.

A thought crossed my mind.

With a loud "hum", it resonated.

A colossal, dark vortex appeared before the dragon, from which incredibly sinister black sword energy shot out.

There's no need to test it anymore; summoning the Shadow Fire Dragon is merely to restrain its movements.

The ultimate move is still the invisible sword energy that pierces through the body!

If Alphonse runs out of necromantic energy and still can't defeat the dragon, he will immediately turn and run away.

Faced with the fierce and domineering necromancer's sword, the dragon seemed to sense the danger, opened its blood-red maw, and spewed out a burst of fierce breath.

A shockwave suddenly rippled outwards from the point where the breath and sword energy clashed.

Suddenly, thunder and lightning arose from the flat ground, and a fierce wind arose.

Countless stalactite columns collapsed and crumbled.

A layer of the ground was scraped away.

The fierce wind swept Alphonse away, sending him flying as he tried to rush forward.

With a single breath, he shattered the sword energy formed by the necromantic aura.

This is the first time that the formless sword energy that shatters the body has been defeated since it appeared in this other world.

Black smoke was still billowing from the dragon's mouth, and its breath seemed unable to continue continuously, but it was already chasing after them with incredible speed.

Having failed to strike, Alphonse dared not use the Body-Piercing Invisible Sword Qi again so easily.

If you can hit its body, the invisible sword energy that breaks through its body will definitely damage it. However, if you just attack randomly, it will be neutralized by its breath and you will return empty-handed.

The dragon was skilled in earth magic, and ripples rippled across the ground, while countless thick, enormous spikes shot out from Alphonse's location.

Alphonse could no longer land.

But this difficult predicament only fueled Alphonse's fighting spirit, pushing the speed of the "Toe Sword" to its limit.

With a flick of his finger, a surge of pure necromantic energy rose and entered Alphonse's body.

In the blink of an eye, two giant shadow pythons appeared out of thin air and coiled around the dragon.

The fire dragon's shadow has also reformed, unleashing various spells and breathing fire to stop the dragon from pursuing Alphonse.

Alphonse stopped retreating and charged towards the dragon instead.

As long as there is even one chance for the formless sword energy that breaks through the body to hit!

The Shadow Serpents' strangulation attack was thwarted by the dragon's tail whip, which ripped both serpents apart.

To deal with the Shadow Fire Dragon, use the same method: ground spikes!

Simple, yet highly effective.

The Shadow Fire Dragon had no chance to react or dodge before it was pierced again and vanished once more.

Alphonse's hands moved in a blur, unleashing a continuous barrage of sword strikes: the Overlord Sword, the Soft Sword, and the Flicking Sword.

Not to harm the enemy, but to find a glimmer of opportunity for battle.

When they met before, the various sword energies of the Innate Formless Finger Sword could not cut through the dragon's scales. Now, however, the Overlord Sword and the Gentle Sword were able to cause some damage, causing the scales to fly and forcing the dragon to dodge.

Alphonse's first consecutive sword strike failed, so he followed up with another combined sword attack. A giant pillar of dark purple lightning, like a rainbow piercing the sky, crashed down.

The dragon suddenly opened its mouth wide, and a huge cross-shaped star-shaped light burst forth from its mouth.

It seemed to have grown impatient and exhaled another breath.

This violent breath not only shattered the lightning pillar of the Overlord Sword, but its momentum continued and blasted towards Alphonse.

Alphonse's body suddenly sank, and he quickly dodged away. At the same time, his palm glowed with a metallic black light as he grabbed at the air.

To rule the universe!

This move, however, is not intended to pull the dragon over.
