The Silver Dragon King Finally Learns Her Lesson (Continued)
and...
This scene felt strangely familiar. Gu Yuena recalled how, not long ago, she had been ambushed and poisoned on Sea God Island because she had underestimated her opponent.
However, reality gave her no time to think or regret.
What troubled her even more, and even terrified her a little, was the strange sensation coming from the palm of her hand.
With the Dragon Clan's unparalleled regenerative abilities, even if the punches just now cracked her finger bones, they should have healed completely in the blink of an eye.
but...
She looked down and saw that her right hand was twisted in an extremely unnatural way.
The muscles and fascia seemed to be violently forced and misaligned under some external force, and the bones were forcibly fixed at an awkward angle. The whole hand looked strange and bloated, completely unable to exert force, and it couldn't even make a normal fist!
Her hand was forcibly "healed" into a crippled state by a strange "healing" energy!
Healing abilities... can be used like this?!
Gu Yuena attempted to mobilize her Soul Power to forcibly correct the misaligned bones. However, the muscles and fascia inside her palm had already grown and taken shape in the wrong position. Forcibly repositioning them would be tantamount to tearing the healed wound open again, causing only secondary damage and excruciating pain, and would be pointless.
This powerful "healing" ability was actually used as the most insidious and disgusting Soul Skill!
Even though she underestimated her opponent at the start and fell into a disadvantageous situation, Gu Yuena, as the Silver Dragon King, still demonstrated amazing strength.
She abandoned close-quarters combat, and her elemental power surged wildly around her!
Fire, frost, storms... all sorts of violent elements, like docile subjects, were at her command, transforming into a devastating torrent that crashed down on Cai Wenji!
These attacks shattered the shield provided by Yao and landed squarely on Cai Wenji, spraying blood everywhere.
However, before the splattered blood even hit the ground, the deep, bone-revealing wound on Cai Wenji's shoulder was instantly healed in the rich green light, leaving it smooth as before!
It was as if that fierce attack just now was merely an illusion.
Cai Wenji didn't even flinch, using this opportunity to close the distance before charging forward with another punch!
This fighting style, which involved trading blows for blows and using near-immortal regeneration to withstand damage, completely stunned Gu Yuena.
In theory, this tactic is indeed feasible, but in practice, the process is extremely painful and cruel.
The wound may heal, but the pain transmitted by the nerves is real!
Constantly getting hurt, healing, and getting hurt again... This requires an extremely high tolerance for pain, even to the point of numbness; otherwise, the mind would have long been destroyed by this endless cycle of suffering.
Yao detached from Cai Wenji and landed, transforming into a pure white divine deer that shimmered with seven-colored light.
She moved with light steps, her antlers radiating an even more powerful and warm auxiliary glow that enveloped the entire area, further enhancing Cai Wenji's and the surrounding Soul Beast ' combat power and recovery speed.
············································
"Roar--!"
Seeing their master suffer a setback, Xiong Jun and the other Ferocious Beast roared in anger, wanting to rush forward to help them.
But the instant they set off, a massive demonic blade, Entanglement with the phantom of a blue dragon and radiating endless killing intent, suddenly tore through the void and slashed down at them with an unyielding will to sever everything!
A figure clad in Azure Dragon Demonic Armor, with flowing silver hair and an imposing aura, descended upon the battlefield like War God!
Xiong Jun's dark golden pupils contracted sharply the instant the cyan-blue blade light struck him.
A long-forgotten sense of fear, stemming from a life-or-death instinct, washed over him like ice water! His monstrous defense, which he was so proud of and could withstand the attacks of most Titled Douluo, seemed to have lost all meaning in the face of this blade.
You'll die! Getting hit by this sword will definitely kill you!
This thought surged uncontrollably. It roared and unleashed the full power of the Sky-Tearing Claw, the dark golden claw shadow colliding fiercely with the azure blade light!
"Boom--!"
A piercing sound of energy tearing apart exploded, Xiong Jun was actually slashed backward by this blow. The claws that had once left wounds on Di Tian's body were now cut with a deep wound that exposed the bone. Dark golden blood dripped down, and at the wound, wisps of Sisi -green energy, like a bone-deep sore, prevented the wound from healing!
Not only Xiong Jun, but also Ferocious Beast such as Myriad Demon King and Scarlet King felt the same chilling warning deep in their souls when faced with Kai's murderous gaze and sword intent that seemed capable of cutting through everything.
This human's attack is very dangerous!
Every time Kai swung his sword, he forced these overlords who had dominated the Star Dou Great Forest for countless years to go all out, either dodging in a sorry state or enduring the blow head-on.
Even Xiong Jun was injured, so the Ferocious Beast naturally dared not underestimate this human's attack.
Meanwhile, the Soul Beast aided by Cai Wenji and Yao were enacting a scene of utter despair. They roared as they charged at the Ferocious Beast, only to have their bones broken and tendons snapped by a casual blow, sending them flying backward with injuries severe enough to instantly render any Soul Beast incapable of fighting.
However, along their trajectory, an intensely green aura of life and the seven-colored purifying light showered by Yao enveloped them. Bones returned to their places, flesh and blood regenerated, and the fear and suppression in their minds were instantly soothed... When they landed heavily, they were completely recovered, with no fear in their eyes, only an even stronger fighting spirit, and they charged forward again fearlessly!
The battlefield had completely transformed into a chaotic and bizarre millstone of immortality.
Despite possessing overwhelming strength, with each attack capable of inflicting massive damage, Gu Yuena's side seemed to be trapped in an indestructible, stubble-like swamp.
The damage they inflicted was healing at a visible rate, while the opponent's momentum grew stronger with each "death" and "rebirth."
Of course, the Ferocious Beast wasn't without treatment as well.
The Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, possesses unparalleled healing abilities. With a flap of her wings, soft emerald light falls upon wounded Ferocious Beast, rapidly healing their injuries.
Then an exception occurred.
Cai Wenji "kindly" healed the wounds inflicted on her enemies, something even Bi Ji couldn't do to a healthy person.
All the wounds inflicted by the Azure Dragon Demonic Blade, regardless of size, retained a layer of stubborn blue-green energy.
This energy, like the most vicious curse, clung tightly to the wound, preventing the penetration of Bi Ji's boundless life force. No matter how much Bi Ji activated her Soul Power, the wound could only barely stop bleeding, and the healing speed became extremely slow. It even showed a faint tendency to be further eroded and expanded by the blue-green energy!
What's even more troublesome is that Kai himself possesses two Soul Skill: teleportation and invincibility.
This means that his deadly attacks are extremely difficult to predict and dodge, and it is even more difficult to injure him.
He was like a ghostly grim reaper, appearing and disappearing on the battlefield unpredictably. Every time he appeared, he was accompanied by a glint of light that terrified the Ferocious Beast.
············································
Kai's combat strategy is simple and efficient, completely unconstrained by the conventional tactics of "prioritizing to eliminate support" in this world.
In his mind, healing support characters like Cai Wenji and Bi Ji are naturally countered by his abilities. Their "healing" effects and powerful recovery abilities are greatly reduced in front of him, so they are not worth worrying about and there is no need to pay special attention to them.
After several more head-on clashes with Xiong Jun and other Ferocious Beast, successfully leaving several terrifying wounds on their bodies that were deep enough to expose bone and swirling with blue-green energy, greatly weakening their combat power, Kai's cold gaze once again locked onto his true target— Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena.
He noticed that this woman seemed completely unconcerned about the lives of her subordinates, focusing all her attention on her deadly struggle against Cai Wenji and Yao, as if she harbored some kind of irreconcilable obsession.
"Snort."
Kai snorted coldly, and a flash of light appeared beneath his feet as he teleported across space like Gui Mei, appearing directly above and to the side of Gu Yuena.
"Buzz--!"
His aura surged, and nine Soul Ring— purple, purple, black, black, red, red, red, red, red—simultaneously emitted dazzling light!
Especially that alluring 100,000-year-old red Soul Ring, which exuded a terrifying aura!
Seventh Soul Skill - Martial Soul Avatar - Azure Dragon Demonic Blade!
His Azure Dragon Demonic Armor emitted a high-pitched dragon roar, its form becoming even more ferocious and domineering. Sharp bone spurs extended from his joints, and his entire body swelled up, as if a real Azure Dragon had possessed him!
The Azure Dragon Demonic Blade in his hand also swelled up, transforming into a giant cleaver that seemed capable of severing everything in the world!
Without further ado, Kai gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, channeling all his killing intent and Soul Power into it, and slashed down at Gu Yuena below!
That strike was swift, ruthless, and decisive!
Wherever the blade passed, the space itself seemed to tear apart under the strain!
Having suffered two defeats at Cai Wenji's hands, Gu Yuena finally learned her lesson.
Sensing the deadly and terrifying killing intent and sharpness above her, alarm bells rang in her mind. No longer caring about attacking Cai Wenji, she instantly raised her defense to the limit!
"Roar--!"
She let out a dragon's roar, and her hands instantly transformed into dragon claws covered with dense silver dragon scales, with dazzling silver dragon scales appearing on her arms, neck, and even cheeks.
At the same time, she mobilized all the elemental power she could control... Layer upon layer of elemental defensive halos instantly condensed in front of her, like the most solid fortress!
"Boom--------!!!"
The giant, azure-blue blade of light clashed fiercely with the layers of elemental defenses erected by Gu Yuena!
A deafening roar, accompanied by a devastating shockwave, spread wildly in all directions, shearing the ground down a level!
Gu Yuena's forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat. She clearly felt that the power contained in that demonic blade and its will to cut through everything far exceeded her expectations!
"Sizzle--!"
A piercing tearing sound rang out.
That cyan blade actually managed to forcefully break through her outer elemental defenses! It was as if those powerful elemental barriers were just fragile pieces of paper, sliced open with a single stroke!
The blade's speed decreased slightly, but its momentum remained undiminished, and it slashed fiercely at her indestructible silver dragon scales!
"Clang!!!"
Sparks flew everywhere! Accompanied by a teeth-grinding sound of bones grinding together!
Gu Yuena let out a muffled groan as a piercing pain shot through her arm.
She was horrified to see that the invincible dragon scales had been cut open by the demonic blade, leaving a deep gash!
final...
The blade slammed into the bone of her arm, the blue-green destructive energy frantically corroding the wound and preventing it from healing.
A chill ran down my spine and straight to the top of my head.
Gu Yuena had a clear premonition: if her physical body hadn't originated from the Dragon God and possessed the strongest physical strength in the world, that strike just now would probably have cleaved her and her defenses in two!
············································
Having taken a direct hit from Kai's earth-shattering blade, the excruciating pain brought Gu Yuena back to full consciousness.
She realized that the terrifying figure opposite her, clad in Azure Dragon Demonic Armor and whose attacks contained the power of law-level killing, was no ordinary Soul Master, but most likely a Godhood Inheritance!
If the fight continues, not to mention the seemingly invincible Cai Wenji and the strangely powerful Yao, the armored warrior in front of her, whose attack power is ridiculously strong and can ignore most of her defenses, is enough to pose a fatal threat to her.
Moreover, all the Ferocious Beast subordinates she brought were injured, especially the main force such as Xiong Jun, whose wounds, wreathed in blue-green energy, were shocking and greatly weakened their combat power.
We can't fight anymore!
Once the thought took hold, it could no longer be suppressed. She gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes.
"Roar!"
She let out a dragon's roar, feigning a fierce attack, and a silver beam of light, imbued with immense elemental power, slammed towards the armor, attempting to force it back and create an opportunity to escape.
