Like a dark cloud pressing down from above, a massive shadow rapidly enveloped the ground.

Xu Yang was startled by the thunderous noise and shadow. At the critical moment, he had no time to turn his head and see what it was. He directly tossed the corpses of the two monstrous bull beasts behind him, then curled up with the speed of someone who had practiced it countless times, plunging into the forest like a Spinning Top.

Bang! Bang!

A powerful force shoved against his back. It was the impact of the monstrous bull beast corpses being struck and smashing into his back!

Xu Yang did not resist the force. Instead, he followed its direction and fell toward the ground even faster. With Xu Yang's size, he directly smashed down several Ancient Woods, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.

Cough, cough.

Xu Yang did not dare delay. The moment he landed, he sprang out of the crater he had created.

Only then did he clearly see what had launched the Sneak Attack on him.

A deep-blue Flood Dragon!

Its body was coiled, so Xu Yang could not determine its exact length, but it looked to be no less than fifty meters long. In other words, the Flood Dragon was at least three times his size!

"Roar—"

The Flood Dragon looked at Xu Yang with arrogant swagger. Its undisguised gaze plainly treated him as prey.

Planet Level, eighth rank?

After sensing the aura emitted by the Flood Dragon In the Air, Xu Yang realized that this Flood Dragon was truly powerful. Still, it can't possibly be as absurd as me and have a domain too, right...?

Xu Yang felt no fear. Now at the sixth rank of the Planet Level, he also possessed a second-layer domain. It was hard to say who was truly the prey.

"Roar!"

Xu Yang retreated slightly and lowered his forelimbs, putting his entire upper body into a defensive pouncing stance. He wanted to first show weakness to the enemy. Ideally, he could lure the Flood Dragon down to fight on the ground; otherwise, how could his agility In the Air possibly compare to the Flood Dragon's?

Sure enough, when the Flood Dragon Molenta saw the wolf on the ground baring its fangs in a defensive stance, its Moods relaxed considerably. Its vertical pupils reflected the desire to hunt deep In Its Heart.

Sixth rank of the Planet Level? So what? It was a noble member of the Flood Dragon race, and its strength had reached the eighth rank of the Planet Level!

The advantage was mine. How could I lose?!

"Rip—"

Boom!!

The sound of tearing air and a sonic boom rang out almost simultaneously as Molenta dived straight toward Xu Yang.

Crushing the wolf with sheer power was the most satisfying thing!

At the Bottom of His Eyes, where Molenta could not see, Xu Yang revealed a faint smile. It had taken the bait.

Eight hundred meters, four hundred meters...

Violent bursts of air Stir up rings of white mist. Xu Yang's posture subtly shifted, his hind legs tightening like springs as his jaws moved slightly in preparation for the coming bite.

Eighty meters!

Now!

"Rip—"

Boom!!

Xu Yang shot out like a bolt of lightning.

Mockery flashed through Molenta's eyes as it boldly extended its claw.

Xu Yang met it head-on. As they crossed paths, his silver-white wolf claw, like metal and iron, thrust out as well, faintly carrying an enigmatic claw technique.

Boom! Boom!

One large and one small beastly silhouette clashed fiercely In the Air. Thick Origin Power spread out like tidal waves as dragon claws and wolf shadows, accompanied by howling winds, crazily interwove. Amid the surging deep-blue and Light Cyan glow, both their attacks were forcibly shattered and neutralized by the other.

Seeing his attack so easily dissolved by the silver wolf, Molenta was startled In Its Heart and felt that something was wrong. But for now, it still held the advantage. Thinking of this, it relaxed again.

Xu Yang, meanwhile, did not use his domain to restrain the Flood Dragon. He was waiting for an opportunity.

An opportunity to land a sure-kill strike.

As the Flood Dragon and wolf fought, their altitude slowly decreased under Xu Yang's repeated displays of weakness. The treeline was now clearly visible...

Now!

Boom!!!

The second-layer domain erupted Without Reservation, like a massive wind wheel tearing through the air and releasing a shrill, howling screech!

The Miniature Planet in Xu Yang's lower abdomen spun so fast it left an afterimage. Taking advantage of the instant the Flood Dragon was slowed by the domain, he instantly broke through the defense of its sharp claws and pounced directly onto its body. He fiercely extended his wolf claws, stabbing with utmost precision toward the Flood Dragon's neck from behind.

Unlike the feel of his previous prey, Xu Yang felt as though his claws had struck metal. His wolf claws paused, then rose again. Azure Radiance gathered thickly around the claw tips, which became like four gleaming blades that tore through the air and slammed viciously into the Flood Dragon's neck.

At once, four crisp sounds Sounded In the Air.

"Crack."

"Crack."

The deep-blue scales shattered into countless fragments. Beneath the scales lay tender Flesh and blood, its defense drastically weakened!

"Pfft!!"

Enhanced by the domain, the sharp wolf claws plunged into the flesh as though piercing jelly!

"Roar—"

The pain pierced straight through its heart!

Flood Dragon Molenta had never suffered such a grievous injury. Its scales, which had always blocked everything, were smashed and torn apart like tofu, scattering like dead leaves and cotton scraps.

But Flood Dragon Molenta was no pushover. In terms of bloodline alone, what flowed in its Bone Marrow was somewhat nobler than that of the silver wolf.

Smack!

Blue light surged across its entire body. Its sword-like tail, soft as silk, instantly tensed and lashed viciously toward the silver wolf on its back. With this strike, it intended to break that damned silver wolf's spine!

Xu Yang's 290-degree Field of vision gave him a complete grasp of the situation. Facing the Flood Dragon's fierce counterattack, he merely smiled. Rather than retreating, he advanced. With a kick of his hind legs, his body tore through the air, producing a piercing sonic boom as he shot straight toward the Flood Dragon's head!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Ultimate explosiveness brought ultimate exhilaration.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Yang produced three sonic booms. The Origin Power within his six Miniature Planets erupted Without Reservation, and for a brief moment, even the sky seemed dyed cyan. His sharp claws pushed off the Flood Dragon's body for leverage, and crisp clashes and sparks erupted in an instant.

"Roar!!"

Using his domain to successfully suppress the Origin Power the Flood Dragon was trying to force out of its body, Xu Yang opened his bloodthirsty maw. His upper and lower jaws spread nearly ninety degrees, carrying a stench as they bit toward the Flood Dragon's throat!

At the same time, Light Cyan Origin Power gathered In the Air, forming the majestic, ferocious shape of a wolf's head. This Origin Power wolf head made the same motion as Xu Yang's Main Body, lunging down to bite viciously!

The blade-like gale pressed down the mane around Flood Dragon Molenta's neck until it lay flat, like frost-stricken grass.

Everything happened in the span of a spark.

Flood Dragon Molenta's sword-tail struck empty air, grazing Xu Yang's afterimage, while Xu Yang's lunge bit solidly into the Flood Dragon's neck!

Surging Origin Power immediately entered the Flood Dragon's body through his teeth in a peculiar manner. Then the Flood Dragon's neck burst open, blood pouring out like pillars. Two fountains of blood, like Light Cyan wind tornadoes mixed with huge amounts of shredded flesh, rapidly entwined and shot into the sky.

"Roar!!"
