Facing a Grandmaster Alone: Kratos's Strength! (Continued)
"The Red Dragon is immortal, it will burn everything to ashes!"
The red dragons roared in Wrath before being overwhelmed by the horde of orcs and hacked to death with axes.
Some red dragons were shot down in mid-air by ranged units, turning into burning fireballs that crashed to the ground, causing the earth to tremble.
Although Shen Xing's side also suffered considerable casualties, most of them were orcs, Infernal, and Black Moon Knight, so the losses were still within an acceptable range.
At that moment, a legion that glowed brightly appeared on the side of the territory.
Leading the group was a white-armored knight riding a light elemental warhorse, and a guard dressed in golden armor.
"Shen Xing, I've brought some people to help."
Xia Wanyin's voice came through the communication crystal, quickly adding, "Xiao Guang and Golden Spear are both Tier Four heroes, and their combat power is very strong."
"The other unit types are also Light Spirit archers, who can provide some ranged damage."
With such a large commotion on Shen Xing's side, Xia Wanyin, as a neighbor, naturally couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
In fact, she wanted to rush over and help as soon as the battle began.
But Shen Xing was afraid that the scale would be too large, and her small force wouldn't be enough to fight them all.
Therefore, we should let them remain inactive.
Now that the situation has stabilized, she immediately led her troops out.
This time, Shen Xing did not refuse and replied, "Alright, then send those two heroes to fight in the sky, and the other Light Spirit archers to the city walls."
"You shouldn't come out; just stay hidden in your territory."
"Mmm!" Xia Wanyin obediently responded, and then quickly got to work.
With the addition of two Tier Four heroes, the battle became an even more one-sided and overwhelming affair.
Shen Xing also switched to his blue dragon form and joined the team besieging the Crown Rank dragon.
He assessed his mental state and thought to himself, "I was so close to breaking through to the third level of mental power— Manifestation."
"Such life-or-death battles can indeed have an excellent training effect."
"Too bad, Conrad interrupted us."
"But it's alright, I have the Lotus Pond anyway, I should be able to break through after some practice back home."
With that in mind, he continued to channel the arcane power within his body, relentlessly bombarding the Crown dragon!
"Bang! Bang!"
The corpses of Lava Dragon fell from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground.
Looking around, the territory was littered with the corpses of dragons.
Each one smashed a huge crater into the ground, and the Magma Eruption out, turning into pools of magma.
Of the original six Hero Rank dragons, only the last two remain, struggling to hold on.
Even the Crown Rank dragon was badly wounded and on the verge of collapse under the combined attack of Hellscream and Kratos.
"Roar! Great monarch, we can't hold on any longer!"
The Crown dragon finally couldn't hold back any longer and sent out a cry for help into the sky.
If things continue like this, their entire Lava Dragon Legion will be wiped out!
Deep within the Firmament at this moment.
Two terrifying creatures, each as large as a star and possessing an aura that shook the heavens, were locked in a fierce battle.
Each collision of the dragon claws caused countless cracks to appear in the space.
Each breath of Dragon Breath wiped away vast swathes of clouds and mountains from the sky.
One-third of the Blackwing Mountains has completely collapsed, with lava gushing out of the cracks in the ground like pillars.
The entire Blackwing Plains trembled violently, but the Blackwater River remained calm, as if unaffected.
After another collision, the two sides briefly separated.
"Kazdoreth..." the Red Dragon Sovereign said coldly, "I didn't expect that the little fellow you chose is stronger than I imagined. Even my Red Dragon Legion couldn't defeat him."
"Hehe, I didn't expect that either."
Seeing the battle below, the Black Dragon Lord smiled smugly, "This kid actually managed to do this much. Glomark, you've really messed up this time."
"Fallen?" The Red Dragon Sovereign sneered. "They're nothing but a Red Dragon Legion without even a Grandmaster Rank. I can easily create a new batch by paying a price."
"No, you've got it wrong," the Black Dragon Lord replied. "When I said you've fallen, I didn't mean you've lost a Red Dragon Legion; I meant you've offended that brat."
"There is a power within him that even I cannot fathom."
The Red Dragon Sovereign paused slightly upon hearing this, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.
But soon, he scoffed dismissively, "So what if they're special? Over the years, I've encountered more than just one or two special beings."
Before they grow up, they are nothing but ants!
"I do not believe in fate; I only believe in absolute power!"
"As long as I continue to grow stronger, no one will be able to stand against me!"
"Roar!!!"
It let out a deafening roar, its giant wings flapped violently, and two enormous clumps of lava fell.
The two clumps of lava plummeted downwards, transforming in mid-air into two Flame Dragons with wingspans exceeding five hundred meters and a Crown- like phantom on their heads!
The difference is that these two giant dragon heads have three stars surrounding the Crown on top of them.
This means that they are Crown Three-Star Dragons, and their strength has exceeded the limit of the Tier Four.
That is to say, Grandmaster!
At that moment, the aura emanating from the Red Dragon Sovereign instantly diminished.
"You... you actually overdraw your own life force and source power to create two Grandmaster Rank dragons?" Incredulity appeared in the eyes of the Black Dragon Lord.
"Hmph!" The Red Dragon Sovereign's gaze remained icy. "As long as we can kill that brat and absorb his life force, these losses can naturally be recovered."
"Kazdoreth, I will show you the truth of this world!"
"Fate, rules—they're all illusions, merely tools to bind the weak!"
Only overwhelming power can dominate everything!
As soon as they finished speaking, the two Grandmaster Rank dragons increased their speed dramatically and rushed towards their territory below!
The Black Dragon Lord tried to stop him, but the Red Dragon Sovereign held him back tightly, making it impossible for him to break free.
At this moment, on the battlefield of the territory below.
Everyone could already sense that two terrifying auras were constantly approaching!
The sense of oppression he brought far surpassed that of Master, completely stepping into the Grandmaster Realm.
The mere scent emanating from it makes one feel a tightness in the chest and stiffness in the body.
After all, that was a Grandmaster Rank dragon, whose strength far surpassed that of Master Rank creatures.
Even among Grandmaster, they are among the very best.
Apart from Old Fordring, none of the people on the field had experience dealing with Grandmaster, nor did they know what kind of power they possessed.
Even Shen Xing felt somewhat uncertain.
"This is a bit troublesome... Two Grandmaster Rank dragons, and their potential is at least Crown- level."
"Hellscream's activation of the Orc Titan Domain, combined with the Desperate Brawl, can amplify his power by 13.5 times, which should be enough to contend with a Grandmaster."
"As for the other Grandmaster Rank dragon, no one can defeat it."
After a moment's thought, he quickly made a decision. "Since we can't win one-on-one, let's have a righteous group brawl!"
"Old Fordring was resurrected with memories of his past life and has experience dealing with Grandmaster, so he should be able to hold out for a while."
"With the other heroes joining forces for a fierce attack, even a Grandmaster couldn't withstand such concentrated fire."
Thinking of this, Shen Xing was about to give the order.
Just then, a gray-white figure soared into the sky!
"Boom!!"
He shot into the sky thousands of meters high like a human meteor.
The target was none other than one of the Grandmaster Rank dragons!
"Hmm? Kratos?"
Shen Xing looked surprised. "This guy, is he planning to take on Grandmaster one-on-one?"
He instinctively wanted to call Kratos back, after all, that was a Grandmaster Rank dragon, whose breath could kill Tier Four Crown!
But after thinking about it, he gave up on the idea.
Kratos is clearly no ordinary hero; he likely harbors a great secret, much like Fordring.
But so far, we haven't seen him go all out.
Even when dealing with that Tier Four Crown dragon, they joined forces with Hellscream to crush it.
This is a good opportunity to see his full strength.
If he really dies by accident, you can just revive him using the 'King Altar'.
With that thought in mind, he commanded, "Hellscream, activate the Orc Titan Domain and engage another Grandmaster Rank dragon."
"Fordring, along with other heroes, are ready to support both battlefields."
Everyone's expression hardened, and they said in unison:
"Yes, my lord!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hellscream was the first to soar into the air.
He spread his enormous black bat wings, and an invisible wave swept out.
At this moment, all the orcs within a radius of several thousand meters felt their power being drained, leaving them extremely weak.
Many orcs couldn't hold on and collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, Hellscream's aura was rising steadily, and his size was growing rapidly!
20 meters...
30 meters...
50 meters...
In the blink of an eye, it broke through the hundred-meter height and transformed into a colossal giant wielding a battle axe and with bulging muscles all over its body!
