Chapter 534: Volume 13: Sea Rain and Heavenly Wind - 4: Roar of the Hegemon
The dragon tail shot up and down, striking twice consecutively and causing heavy casualties among the jellyfish warriors hiding in the water. Meanwhile, two streams of sword qi, which had been biding their time invisibly, finally rose again. No one could ignore such a sight, especially when their own kind were being slaughtered in such a manner. Even though they knew appearing like this was ill-advised, it seemed there was no choice left.
The blue sword qi once again tore through the water’s surface in a fierce attack from beneath the dragon’s belly, but the Ice Dragon, well-prepared, deftly deflected this sharp strike with its dragon foot. The indestructible sword qi collided with the dragon foot, leaving only a deep imprint. Though the pain was excruciating, it failed to inflict substantial damage on the Ice Dragon.
The dragon’s foot is the hardest part of a dragon’s body, its specially thick keratinous layer fearing no external impact. Even the highest level of human martial arts could only leave a mark.
The Ice Dragon laughed triumphantly with a wide-open mouth, cackling strangely. It had finally forced these two ants into the open. As long as it dealt with these two, even at the cost of a few poisoned arrows, it would kill all those who dared challenge the great Ice Dragon, serving as a warning to those ignorant fools!
The white sword qi also finally reached from afar at this moment. The dazzling sword shadow emitted a strange silver light, and as it neared the dragon’s body, it suddenly split into three sword shadows, elusive and resplendent. The Ice Dragon, rushing in with its foot, had not expected the adversary to reveal such an intricate sword technique of mixing illusion with reality upon approach. Caught slightly off guard, its dragon foot forcefully missed its target.
By the time the Ice Dragon realized its error and wanted to twist away, it was too late. The emergent sword qi within the illusion burst forth, penetrating beneath the Ice Dragon’s wing into the ribs. Its thick flesh could not withstand the attack, infused with the highest yuan force. The skyrocketing blood wave, rapidly rotating with the sword qi, became a blood mist filling the sky like a cinnabar flame barrier, stretching across the surface of the water.
"Woo!" For the first time in its life, the Ice Dragon experienced such a grave injury. Its painful roar caused the water surface to ripple with huge waves, and even the depths of the sky seemed to echo with a thunderous resonance. This mournful cry that originated from the depths of the Ice Dragon’s gut spread like a super-sonic wave, fiercely expanding in all directions.
In the moment the dragon roared while blood sprayed from its body, Komer sensed danger. He suddenly kicked a confused Set into the water to hide, and at the same time wrapped Grace tightly behind him, bellowing, "Hold onto me tight! Close off all your senses!"
