Su Lu's Ambition Doubled
After descending the mountain, Tang Miao paused, then summoned Little Wind Ji and handed her the sword. Looking at Mu Ningxue beside him, he said, "Take Little Wind Ji and leave first. I'll go check on things and then come find you."
As long as Wind Ji is by his side, he is certain he can find Mu Ningxue no matter where she goes. Even if she encounters any danger, he can sense it immediately through his telepathic connection with Little Wind Ji.
"What are you going to do?" Mu Ningxue asked Tang Miao, puzzled.
"Let's go and see the magnificence of True Dragon," Tang Miao replied.
Come to think of it, when he came here with Asha Ruiya, he didn't really get to see it for himself. After all, he was just too insignificant back then.
Now that we have the opportunity, we should naturally go and see for ourselves.
Mu Ningxue said with some worry, "I don't want you to go. But if you really insist, I'll go with you. My Ice Crystal Brake Bow can even hold its own against a Super Level Mage."
"Before you reach the Transcendent level, the Ice Crystal Brake Bow was merely a way to unleash your power by consuming your soul. Do you think I need you to risk your life to fight alongside me?"
Before Mu Ningxue could say anything, Tang Miao continued, "Besides, with my Shadow Element, I won't be discovered if I just go to take a look. Don't worry."
Mu Ningxue knew she couldn't persuade Tang Miao, so she chose to remain silent...
"Take Little Wind Ji with you and leave. Trust me, I'm just going to take a look," Tang Miao added.
Mu Ningxue knew Tang Miao was determined to go, and she had no chance to stop him, so all she could do was say, "Then be careful."
Don't worry.
After responding, a swirling Black Mist rose around Tang Miao, and then he vanished from the spot.
Wind Ji obediently perched on Mu Ningxue's shoulder. Like Flame Ji, it wasn't afraid of humans and showed no hostility. Of course, the main reason was that Tang Miao had it follow Mu Ningxue.
Heading towards the giant mountain range, Tang Miao looked around cautiously. He was still somewhat puzzled; the person who had appeared earlier was truly terrifying, managing to conceal their presence without any apparent hostility. Even he hadn't been able to detect them...
As we gradually reached the highest point of the mountain range, we found ourselves on a long, rugged mountaintop with jagged rock ridges. The entire summit resembled the spine of a dragon, and at the other end of the slowly ascending summit stood a Long Cliff rising above the clouds, like a heavenly path leading to the kingdom of the gods—majestic and solitary.
As he slowly came to a stop in the distance, he noticed that there were quite a few people on the cloud cliff. Most of these people were wearing the robes of the Magic Association, and from the emblems inlaid on the robes, he knew that these people held important positions in the Magic Association!
And among these people, the guy who had just blocked their way was also here.
At this moment, it seemed the ceremony was about to be completed? Su Lu, looking full of pride, walked towards the summit of the cloud-covered shore.
"In the past, people on the European continent called dragons a scourge, because they were so powerful that they could destroy the entire effort of a tribe or a nation overnight. From that time on, people hoped for a power of their own to descend, one that could stand against the dragons head-on..."
"Then, people mastered magic. But only after gaining their own power did they fully realize just how powerful dragons truly were. Magic was merely a gentle breeze before them, and even the supreme power that people revered could not penetrate the dragon scales. Thus, no matter how far magical civilization developed, even now, the ancient dragons remain a sacred and inviolable force. Fortunately, the laws of nature never favor any particular race; the ancient dragons' reproductive capacity was almost zero. Those dragons mentioned by people are actually all sub-dragons, mixed-race dragons... and thus they dare to call themselves dragon slayers."
"The dragon beneath my feet is a True Dragon, with its own name, its own history, and its own supreme dragon power. From ancient times to the present, this wish of humankind—I, Su Lu, will not only fulfill it, but I will also utterly reduce True Dragon to a subservient race! Ancient gods, ancient demons, ancient monsters... those who rule this world are not them, but us humans!"
Su Lu atop the Cloud Cliff, atop the highest Tyrant Mountain Range in Europe, Su Lu's words were filled with power, seemingly capable of resounding throughout the entire continent.
After his grand pronouncements, several high-ranking figures from the Asian Magic Association present offered their congratulations...
It seemed they all saw in this ceremony of conquering the True Dragon a future where Su Lu would dominate the world... If Su Lu could control the five continents, then these people, to put it simply, would be his loyal subjects!
Although major battles rarely break out among humans due to the presence of Demon Beast everywhere, they do occur.
However, someone with such enormous ambitions as Su Lu is, for now, only the first one...
Just as Tang Miao was observing his surroundings, he suddenly noticed a man dressed in a dark leather jacket standing quietly on the summit of a side peak of the Tyrant Mountain Range. He was gazing at the ever-changing sky in the distance, and a hint of determination shone in his deep eyes!
This man was naturally Norman of Parthenon. As one of the people who knew the black dragon, Tang Miao was not surprised to see him here.
"Rumble rumble rumble...~!!!"
At that moment, as a ritual began, the entire mountain range trembled... not just one mountain range, but the entire Tyrant Mountain Range was completely shaken!
"Roar~!!!"
Immediately afterwards, a sound that seemed to explode the sky and shatter the mountains rang out... Even though he was prepared, Tang Miao still felt as if he was about to lose consciousness.
This is a form of auditory and psychological torture...
There, even the top-tier combatants of this world were in pain, but somehow, their pain appeared and disappeared quickly...
The next moment, a huge claw descended, shattering the mountaintop in an instant. A shocking claw mark appeared in one spot, and the area that had extended into a large rocky area completely disappeared!
The sea of clouds, which was originally a vast expanse of white covering everything below the mountain peak, is now riddled with holes and churned into an unrecognizable shape.
Higher up in the sky, thousands of black destructive beams crashed down, creating a wide-ranging impact. The mountains were massive, with peaks connected one after another. Almost every black destructive beam that fell could break the peaks of these Tyrant Mountain Range. In an instant, the majestic and precipitous Tyrant Mountain Range seemed to have been flattened!
The moment the black dragon appeared, Tang Miao retreated some distance to avoid being caught in its crossfire...
Although this might attract attention, Su Lu's eyes were only on the Black Dragon! Even if the aura emanating from it was detected, he wouldn't care at all!
The deep black light of destruction emanated from the very top of the sky, where the air became extremely cold, and even powerful mages would be quickly frozen solid.
In the frigid sky above, where the light of day and night seemed to emanate, a colossal black dragon spread its terrifying wings. It was like part of the night, enveloping all the mages on the mountain. Its majestic aura, which ruled over heaven and earth, was enough to make the souls of the insignificant people below tremble!
Dragon wings blotted out the stars and blocked out the moon, its body dominated the sky, and a massive black dragon's tail hung halfway down beneath the clouds, the other half disappearing into them. The divine might of humankind could hardly describe this powerful body; it seemed to come from another universe...
If Su Lu hadn't learned of the Black Dragon's weakness, no matter the era, probably no one would dare to challenge such a colossal creature.
"Awooooooo~!!!"
Suddenly, a roar swept across the land, as if a small planet had hurtled down upon it, causing mountains to crumble, the earth to split, and storms to rage!
Clearly, the Black Dragon Emperor is about to unleash his Dragon Breath!
The most terrifying thing about True Dragon is its Dragon Breath. Dragon Breath sweeps across the land, there is no survivors. Even Forbidden Curse Mage will perish under its Dragon Breath. This is why True Dragon are not to be trifled with!
While some pseudo-dragons also possess Dragon Breath, their power is likely less than one ten-thousandth of that of True Dragon...
As dust swirled in the storm, the Black Dragon Emperor stood tall in the sky, raising its head, its belly and cavities beginning to throb.
The airflow began to reverse, and this area of high altitude resembled a giant vortex cavity, sucking all objects into it...
Seeing this, Tang Miao fled far away. Although a restraining ritual had been set up here, who knew if he could actually expel the first breath?
What Tang Miao found strange was that Norman, who was also hiding here, not only didn't retreat, but instead headed towards Su Lu.
"Our chance has come!" Su Lu smiled as he watched the black dragon continuously absorbing the energy.
It seemed that the moment it absorbed the substance, Su Lu was already certain that the other party wouldn't be able to expel it!
Below the cloud-covered cliffs atop the mountain, a deep green gas rose up, forming a worm-like shape that did not dissipate even under the powerful aura of the sea.
These worm-like gases were quickly absorbed into the Black Dragon Emperor 'Black Dragon Emperor abdomen, and a strange, dark green color suddenly appeared in his chest cavity...
Immediately afterward, Dragon Flame seemed to be emerging, but beneath the rising green gas, the Black Dragon Emperor realized that his devastating Dragon Breath, capable of overwhelming everything, was unable to be unleashed!
"Awooooo~!!"
Countless flames surged from between the Black Dragon Emperor's fangs, yet the most powerful Dragon Flame failed to materialize. That potentially world-destroying Dragon Flame was inexplicably choked back, causing the Black Dragon Emperor to roar in agony!
Upon seeing this, Su Lu burst into wild laughter, seemingly believing he was about to conquer the world... His manic demeanor almost made him appear to be a complete lunatic!
