A Grandmaster Duel: Kratos's Strength!
The figure was raising its two thick arms and forcefully withstood the dragon's claws as they struck!
"No... impossible!"
The Lava Dragon cried out in disbelief, "How... how could a human possibly contend with the power of a dragon!?"
The other party did not answer, but stared at it with those indifferent eyes, then suddenly exerted force in their waist and lifted their arms with all their might!
At that moment, the Lava Dragon felt an unimaginable force, and its center of gravity instantly lost its balance.
It was like a giant wave, a thousand meters high, crashing down and overturning it!
Everyone else was also stunned.
This was the first time they had ever seen a creature so tough that it could withstand the attack of a dragon of the same level, and even overturn it.
Just how terrifying power does this guy possess?
Before it could react, another figure had already arrived in front of the Crown Dragon.
The Mad Demon Battle Axe rapidly enlarged, then slashed down with the force of splitting a mountain!
"Puff!!!"
The dragon was Heavy Strike, its body instantly curled up, and it crashed heavily to the ground.
Then, two figures surrounded it and began a one-sided crushing attack!
Conrad, standing some distance away, was completely stunned.
Tier Four Crown Rank dragon is already invincible below the Grandmaster level.
But he was utterly powerless against those two figures, which completely overturned his understanding of the world.
In his bewilderment, he suddenly felt a tearing sound of wind coming from his face.
Looking closely, I immediately saw a dark figure rushing towards me at lightning speed!
His long black hair flowed in the wind, his handsome face was filled with cold killing intent, and a jet-black dragon claw gleamed with a cold light!
"Shen Xing!" Conrad exclaimed in surprise, then quickly regained his composure. "He actually dared to charge up alone?"
"Very well, I'll end you myself!"
The black-haired figure ignored him, its dragon claw still reaching straight out, aiming for his heart!
"Overestimating yourself!"
Conrad also saw Shen Xing's determination to kill him, and at that moment he quickly assumed a fighting stance!
Its body was quickly covered with red dragon scales, and Magma Eruption out, while its dragon wings unfolded on its back!
"Clang!"
He suddenly stretched out his dragon claw, which collided with Shen Xing's dragon claw in mid-air.
A powerful burst of energy erupted on the spot, and both of them retreated more than ten steps!
It must be said that as the strongest of the Five Chromatic Dragons, the Red Dragon Origin, Conrad demonstrated extremely strong combat power even after absorbing only a portion of it.
"Heh." Conrad sneered, "Arrogant fellow, you think...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Xing's second wave of attacks arrived.
A black energy cluster rapidly condensed within the jet-black dragon claw, transforming into a black vortex that instantly unleashed a terrifying suction force!
Conrad's body began to move uncontrollably closer to him, and his expression changed drastically!
This skill is one of the Black Dragon's combat techniques— Black Hole Grasp!
"Drink! Stop it right now!"
Conrad stomped his feet on the ground and squatted down, managing to briefly resist the terrifying suction force.
Unbeknownst to him, four dark metal spheres had appeared around him and were hurtling towards him with terrifying force!
Conrad's pupils contracted sharply, and he twisted his body quickly, barely dodging the bombardment of the two dark metal spheres.
But two bullets still hit him in the back and waist!
"Bang! Bang!"
A dull thud resounded, and Conrad felt as if he had been hit head-on by a large truck, his mind going blank for a moment!
Before he could react, a sharp pain shot through his heart.
"Puff!"
Conrad stood there, stunned, looking down.
At that moment, a jet-black dragon claw pierced through his chest and emerged from his back, clutching a burning hot heart in its hand.
"Hiss—"
Scalding lava dripped from the wound, making a scorching sound as it hit the ground.
Conrad stared at the scene in disbelief. "Impossible... this is impossible!"
"I possess SS-level talent and have also absorbed the Red Dragon Origin, making me destined to reach the pinnacle!"
"How could I possibly die here, die at the hands of a Xiao Xiao Expert Rank... Pfft!"
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Xing had already crushed the heart, severing Conrad's life force.
Then, he lifted the man's body with one hand and pierced his chest with the other.
With a sudden burst of force, he used both hands.
With a "ripping" sound, the body was torn in two on the spot!
Along with the gushing blood, several glittering objects also emerged.
Shen Xing saw a glittering Talent Crystal, an ancient-looking backpack, and a burning flame.
He carelessly discarded the body, then put the first two items into his backpack.
[Obtained: Talent Crystal - Rage (SS)]
[Obtained: Dragon-Patterned Bag (Gold)]
Chapter 301: Kratos's Strength in a One-on-One Grandmaster!
[Obtained: Talent Crystal - Rage (SS)]
[Obtained: Dragon-Patterned Bag (Gold)]
Looking at the spoils displayed before him, Shen Xing's heart stirred slightly.
Then he threw Conrad's mangled body onto the ground.
"Not bad, the backpack dropped too."
"This kid must have some money to burn; hopefully he'll give me a surprise."
Shen Xing did not immediately open his backpack to check, but instead looked at the burning red flame beside him.
He sensed an extremely attractive aura within it, which filled him with an intense longing.
Clearly, this is the Red Dragon Origin within Conrad.
"Suck--"
Without the slightest hesitation, he took a deep breath and swallowed the ball of Red Dragon Origin.
It felt like swallowing a mouthful of lava; a terrifying burning sensation shot through my stomach, and excruciating pain quickly spread throughout my body.
His skin instantly turned bright red, and pain flashed in his eyes.
However, Shen Xing quickly adapted.
"Fortunately, because I often communicate with Leina, I've developed strong fire resistance."
"Furthermore, my physique has recently improved significantly. Although this flame is terrifying, it won't cause the near-explosion that I experienced when absorbing the Blue Dragon Origin."
With that thought in mind, he stood still and began to absorb the primal power within his body.
A system notification then appeared.
[Absorbing...]
[Current progress: 0.54%...]
[1.14%...]
[2.34%...]
[3.54%...]
[5.72%...]
The progress bar kept increasing, eventually stopping at 15%.
"Only this much?"
Shen Xing was slightly taken aback, then cursed at the corpse on the ground, "Useless trash. I thought you had a lot of primal power within you, but it's not even enough to fill my teeth."
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
He was able to reach 100% progress and successfully awaken the [Dragon Lord] class by directly draining the Blue Dragon Lord Maragus to death.
That was the complete essence of a Five Chromatic Dragons, which he absorbed all by himself, almost causing it to burst.
If it weren't for later absorbing the physical essence of the Black Dragon Lord Kazdoreth, which greatly enhanced his physical abilities, even Shen Xing wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
This Conrad is only Tier Three combatant. Without other powerful individuals to strengthen his physical body, he simply cannot withstand the complete primordial power of a Dragon Lord.
While the Red Dragon Sovereign could do this, he clearly wouldn't pay such a high price for it.
"15%... 85% more is needed to awaken the third form..."
Shen Xing couldn't help but raise his head and look at the two twinkling stars deep in the Firmament.
"If Kazdoreth can kill the Red Dragon Sovereign, the primal power within it will definitely be enough for me to reach 100%..."
"I just don't know if Old Black can actually do it..."
He muttered to himself, then casually released a burst of Shadow Dragon Breath, completely reducing Conrad's corpse to ashes.
After doing all this, he turned his gaze back to the battlefield ahead.
At this point, the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.
Although the Red Dragon Sovereign's Red Dragon Legion was powerful, it lacked any Grandmaster Rank experts, making it easy prey for Shen Xing.
Unless you have a large enough number of Master Rank experts, they will not pose any threat to your territory.
"Pfft! Pfft!"
"Roar! The monarch will avenge us!"
