The Mountain Falls
The next moment, a thunderous thud echoed in the sky, like a bolt from the blue, and a powerful Shockwave spread out rapidly once again.
"Boom!"
Keosius's burning dragon body slammed straight into the chest of the Abyssal Dragon, creating a shower of sparks, a violent explosion, and thick Gunsmoke.
The two colossal beasts, each over a hundred meters tall, became entangled and wrestled in mid-air, causing the sky to tremble and the space to shudder.
Jierlazarax is nearly 300 meters long, much larger than the Red Dragon which is only a hundred meters long, and should have an overwhelming advantage in strength.
However, compared to the emaciated and decaying body of the Abyssal Dragon, Keosius's dragon body was much stronger and more solid, with clearly defined, knotted muscles like iron balls, and surrounded by the power of laws.
Almost instantly, the Red Dragon regained the upper hand by taking advantage of the momentum of its dive, pressing down on the chest of the Abyssal Dragon.
"Aww—"
Eat, I'll eat you!
Jierlazarax roared madly, struggling with its claws, wildly waving its tattered wings, twisting its head and biting wildly, spitting out foul-smelling saliva.
"Tsk tsk. A dying beast!"
Seizing the opportunity, Keosius nimbly dodged the giant claws and sharp teeth high in the air, leaping in a few steps to the back of the Abyssal Dragon and biting down hard on the wing bone.
With a crisp "crack," the wing bone of the Abyssal Dragon snapped, and its wings, hundreds of meters wide and capable of Sky-Shading, drooped limply.
"Aww!"
Jierlazarax stretched out his neck in agony, howling to the sky. His eyes had turned bloodshot as he frantically scratched and clawed, leaving bloody wounds on his own body.
The Abyssal Dragon struggled endlessly, its body covered in wounds, its purplish-black dragon blood and dark red scales splattering in the air.
But Keosius was not afraid at all. Instead, he stepped on the back of the Abyssal Dragon, tightened his wings, and Ground Spike its flesh, suppressing it.
He grinned, revealing a sinister smile, and whispered, "Now, Jierlazarax, I've got you!"
"Roar--"
The Red Dragon roared, his veins bulging, the Law Power swirling around him, and the surrounding gravity suddenly increased tenfold, as if a mountain had suddenly pressed down on Jierlazarax.
The power of [Empire Domain: Sealing] extinguished the raging chaotic winds, rendering them unable to support the Abyssal Dragon.
The broken-winged Jierlazarax flapped its remaining wing with all its might, but it was no match for maintaining the balance of its massive dragon body, let alone enduring the Red Dragon's impact.
"Boom——"
The next moment, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound as the air was torn apart, the two enormous beasts, entangled together, fell from the sky like a giant meteorite.
These two colossal dragons, weighing nearly a million tons combined, crashed together onto the mountainside of Tieri Peak! "Boom!"
With the mountain trembling and the earth and rocks exploding, the billowing dust generated by the impact soared into the sky, carrying broken rocks and sand, sweeping in all directions and covering the sky and ground for dozens of miles around.
A huge crater, hundreds of meters in diameter and tens of meters deep, has been created on the mountainside of Tieri Peak, as if a piece had been gnawed away by a terrible beast.
It wasn't just the Tieri Peak, nor just the Anstica Mountains; the entire Anzeta Great Wasteland was shaking and trembling!
The sheer force of the battle between the two giant dragons was so powerful that it sent shivers down the spines of onlookers dozens of miles away, filling them with fear and awe.
"What a terrifying display!"
"Gods, this is nothing short of an apocalyptic catastrophe!"
"By Bahamut, such a duel between dragons has not occurred for tens of thousands of years."
"Look! Look at that Tieri Peak! How, how is this possible?"
The cracking sound of rocks breaking became more and more obvious. Around the giant crater, deep cracks gradually appeared on the towering mountain of Tieri Peak, which was thousands of meters high, from which molten lava gushed out.
Under the dragon's onslaught, the rock strata inside the mountain were already too heavy to bear, and thus it broke and crumbled.
"Boom--"
That was the earth's long lament, the mountain peaks' final elegy.
Countless rocks tumbled down, and the mountain, like a giant about to fall, leaned helplessly backward. The dust generated by the collapse swept across the land once again, surging and billowing.
Tieri Peak, the highest mountain in the the North that had existed for countless millennia and revered by the Scania People for centuries as the "King of Snow Mountains," collapsed with a deafening roar.
Yet, amidst the ruins of that mountain peak, in the sand and dust that filled the earth, two enormous black shadows still entangled and fought.
"Roar--"
They roared in anger, causing billowing smoke and dust, and the earth, now a ruin, still trembled.
However, at this moment, the Abyssal Dragon was covered in wounds. Half of its body was buried in the soil and rocks, and its left wing drooped limply. It was no longer the fierce creature it had been just moments before.
Even in this state, Jierlazarax could easily crush countless mortals and destroy a human city.
Unfortunately, His opponent was Keosius —and Keosius, who held supreme authority within the Empire Domain.
With the Abyssal Dragon acting as a cushion, Keosius was unharmed from the fall.
Flames surged in the Red Dragon's pale golden pupils, and a terrifying pressure emanated from its powerful dragon body, along with a faint wisp of Gunsmoke.
Ignoring everything, Jierlazarax crawled up from the ruins, countless rocks and sand falling from his dragon body, the ground rumbling, and he dragged his badly wounded body toward Keosius.
"Boom!"
Smoke and dust billowed up again, and soil and rocks flew everywhere.
However, in his berserk state, Jierlazarax's attack intent was so obvious that his movements appeared to Keosius's Calamity Dragon Eye in slow motion.
Keosius simply flapped his wings and took off, dodging the attack and arriving above the Abyssal Dragon.
"Whoosh—"
The sharp claws slashed down from mid-air, striking the Abyssal Dragon squarely on the back. Broken scales flew everywhere, and purplish-black blood stained the Red Dragon's face.
Several long, narrow claw marks, deep into flesh, appeared on the back of the Abyssal Dragon, causing it to let out a painful howl.
Jierlazarax struggled frantically, twisting his Limbs in an attempt to roll over and pin the Red Dragon beneath him, but the immense pressure rendered him immobile.
Keosius grinned menacingly, clinging relentlessly to the back of the Abyssal Dragon, and biting at its remaining left wing bone. The sharp teeth engaged, and the dragon's head swung violently.
"Sizzle—"
Blood splattered as the Abyssal Dragon's wings, as wide as the sky, were torn off, leaving jagged cracks stretching for hundreds of meters on its Wing Membrane.
"Aww—"
Another piercing wail rang out, and Jierlazarax stretched out his neck once more, his massive dragon body trembling violently.
At this point, the Abyssal Dragon's wings had all fallen off, and blood splattered from its back like rain. In its Sealing state, the resurrected flames could not even heal its injuries.
At this moment, Jierlazarax no longer resembled a dragon; he was more like an incredibly thin Terrestrial Dragon Beast.
The Red Dragon stood atop the back of the Abyssal Dragon, his eyes piercing, his mouth dripping with blood, and he hissed, "Jierlazarax, how does it feel to be prey? Rest assured, this is only the beginning, Revenge Devil, I will repay you tenfold for everything you have done to me!"
