Dismembering the Red Dragon (Part 2)! Second Update
--"Sword Momentum: Whirlwind Dance!"

What should Soren do when the Red Dragon is being brutally beaten to the ground by the Frost Giant?
Without a doubt!
He had to use this time to inflict as much damage as possible on the enemy and then drag the Red Dragon into Heavy Injury Condition. The Dragon's Hit Points was astonishing; despite the long fight, it was only just approaching Heavy Injury Condition. However, Soren did not approach the Red Dragon's upper body because he believed that the most powerful of the Chromatic Dragon, the Red Dragon, would not be so fragile and would not be rendered helpless by a single burst of attacks from the Frost Giant. Besides, its large head could bite.
Aww!
At the same time, piercing screams rang out.
There was Adult Red Dragon severely wounded by Soren, and a female Frost Giant caught in the crossfire, her arm caught in the Red Dragon's gaping maw. Even with her strong natural armor, the Frost Giant was nearly torn apart, skin and bone shattered. Dragon possess an astonishing bite force; in fact, their bite force is easily overlooked due to their many other abilities. However, Soren naturally remembered how deadly Dragon 'Dragon bite could be, as he had once had an arm bitten off.
In the end, they could only seek help from a high-ranking priest to cast [Limb Regeneration].
The female Frost Giant's attack was finally interrupted. The Red Dragon opened its massive jaws and bit down hard, struggling to get its enormous body up. Given their sheer size, the battle resembled a Jurassic-era Dinosaur war, specifically a battle between Tyrannosaurus Rex and a Spinosaurus. The ground shook violently; if Soren were to be accidentally crushed or stepped on by either of them, he could be severely injured or even killed on the spot.
Because Soren couldn't withstand a weight of tens of tons!
Pfft.
A large amount of Dragon Blood gushed out.
Soren, his expression grave, brandished his Scimitar, thrusting forward while carefully Dodge the sweeping Tail Sweep and the Red Dragon's thrashing body as it twisted and turned in combat. Without specialized Dragon Slayer weapons, fighting Dragon would inevitably be inconvenient. Both Dragon-Slaying Sword- Dragon-Slaying Spear were specially designed Legendary Equipment, capable of effectively attacking the Dragon's vital organs. Unlike Soren, whose weapons' length made it difficult to injure the Dragon's internal organs, Sauron's current predicament was different.
However, he wasn't completely without options!
Soren swung his Scimitar, tearing open the Red Dragon's scales. Then he sliced through the muscle tissue into the enemy's body, severing the Red Dragon's tendons.
A row of documents appeared:
"Combat Realization!"
"You've gained some insights during the battle! You've mastered some information about the Combat Skill Sword Momentum: Tendon Sever!"
"Combat Realization!"
"You've gained some insights during the battle! You've mastered some information about the Combat Skill Sword Momentum: Laceration!"
Two consecutive data prompts appeared.
However, Soren had no time to look, because relying on his powerful Legendary Scimitar Mastery Feat, he successfully pierced the Red Dragon 'Red Dragon body, severing its tendons and cutting the blood vessels in its legs with remarkable precision. This was something he couldn't have done before, as he never possessed such accuracy in his attacks. But now, with his Legendary Scimitar Feat, his strikes against his enemies had become increasingly precise and deadly.
"Sword Momentum: Tendon Sever (Combat Skill): Through special combat techniques, sever the tendons and ligaments of the enemy in battle, which can greatly reduce the combat ability of ordinary enemies. It is also very effective against some supernatural creatures. The enemy must undergo a mandatory Constitution resilience test, otherwise they may suffer negative statuses such as paralysis or crippling."
"Sword Momentum: Laceration (Combat Skill): Through special combat techniques, sever the enemy's blood vessels during battle. This will worsen the enemy's bleeding condition, potentially leading to death from excessive blood loss in a short period of time."
The scalding Dragon Blood spilled across the earth.
Soren was covered in blood, because when he severed the Red Dragon's Achilles tendon, he also severed an artery. Although supernatural Hit Points with strong Constitution wouldn't die quickly from this, it would exacerbate their bleeding. The Dragon Blood from Soren's body was from accurately hitting the artery. He gripped his Scimitar and applied force along the Red Dragon's leg muscles, slicing off more than three hundred pounds of Dragon Meat in just a few seconds.
That scene was a bit creepy!
Wherever Soren's blade flashed, chunks of flesh fell away, and finally, the Red Dragon's legs revealed bare white bones.
It was as if it had almost been skinned alive by Soren!
The Frost Giant seemed to have regained some of her senses due to the Red Dragon's attack. As a near- Legendary Northern Witch, she decisively chose to sever her own arm, which the Red Dragon had bitten. Then, with her remaining arm, she gripped the Red Dragon's neck and straddled it. This was its weak point; by pressing down on the Red Dragon 'Red Dragon narrow neck, it wouldn't be so easy for it to turn over, just like holding a snake by its vital spot.
Soren seemed to have entered a very strange state!
It can't be called a breakthrough in battle, but he did indeed make a significant improvement in his combat skills.
A row of data prompts reappeared:
"Combat Realization!"
"You've gained some insights during the battle! You've mastered some information about the Combat Skill Sword Momentum: Tendon Sever!"
"Combat Realization!"
"You've gained some insights during the battle! You've mastered some information about the Combat Skill Sword Momentum: Laceration!"
"Combat Realization!"
"You've gained some insights during the battle! You've successfully mastered the Combat Skill Sword Momentum: Whirlwind Dance!"
Bang!
The thick, long dragon tail lashed out with a whistling sound, then with astonishing agility, it coiled around the Frost Giant's neck, tearing her off. The Red Dragon roared in fury, flapping its Dragon Wing as it struggled to its feet. Adult Frost Giant are on par with young Dragon in Challenge Rating, so it's not uncommon to encounter Frost Giant battling Dragon in the wild, though most of these are White Dragon from the same cold region.
It's not uncommon for Giant and Dragonkind to clash!
Therefore, the Red Dragon also inherited combat skills for dealing with Giant. After shaking off the Frost Giant, it took a deep breath and then suddenly opened its mouth to spew out a scorching Dragon Breath.
The power of frost permeated the air.
The scorching flames raged.
The Frost Giant and the Red Dragon are incompatible, and when they collide, even the elemental forces in the air fluctuate violently.
Red Dragon struggled to his feet.
Suddenly, its body swayed again, and its massive form staggered, almost falling to the ground. Only then did the others notice that over 500 pounds of flesh had been cut off from the Red Dragon's right thigh, and the white bone was visible on half of its leg. The entire battle had lasted less than a minute. The Red Dragon felt the pain of the attack, but it certainly hadn't expected its enemy to inflict such damage!
Soren is dismembering the Red Dragon.
Although he couldn't deliver a fatal blow, he severed one of the Red Dragon's legs and also unleashed two Sword Momentum: Whirlwind Dance on the Dragon Wing.
"Awooo! Roar! Bang!"
The Red Dragon flapped its enormous Dragon Wing in an attempt to regain its balance, but unfortunately, one of its legs was half skeleton.
Clang!
Soren's Scimitar flashed with chilling light as he moved around the Red Dragon, tearing away large chunks of flesh. The dragon's incredibly tough Dragon Scale seemed utterly useless, as Soren pierced them with deadly precision time and again. Some wounds, once they bled slightly, only required further enlargement.
Therefore, when Soren's second round of attacks ended...
Large patches of white bone were visible on the Red Dragon's legs. Most winged creatures have a kicking motion before taking off. That's why legendary masters can neutralize the force of a bird's kick, preventing it from flying out of their palms. Although the Red Dragon in front of them could still stand, it would be extremely difficult for it to take flight again.
Its body was swaying slightly.
The massive blood loss, Soren's damage, and the Frost Giant's attacks were gradually dragging it towards a near-death state.
