The black sheen covered the entire body, spreading over every dragon scale.
The black and gold dragon circled high in the sky, an oppressive and profound aura crashing down like a tidal wave. Even the abyssal prisoners watching from afar felt their breath catch, despite not being the dragon’s target. The pressure was immense.
At the same time.
The Elf King took a deep breath, his face solemn, the flames in his eyes growing more intense.
Facing the terrifying might of the black and gold dragon, the Elf King couldn’t help but recall the unfathomable divine power he had felt when battling an avatar of the main god.
“To encounter such a powerful legendary creature in the Casserly Abyss, it’s my fortune.”
Saga’s strength did not make the Elf King retreat.
His fighting spirit soared even higher.
A red radiance flowed like water from the Elf King’s body, transforming into armor that covered him entirely, even hiding his eyes behind a faceplate.
Almost simultaneously, a blood-red longsword appeared in his hand.
Crystal clear, as if formed from blood-red crystals, it seemed capable of cutting through anything.
“I will give my all to defeat you.”
In an instant, the Elf King’s body vanished from his original spot, appearing before Saga in the blink of an eye.
Though his normal-sized body seemed tiny compared to the black and gold dragon, the Elf King swung his blood-red longsword.
Blood Sun Slash!
The blood-red sword light, round like a great sun, slashed towards the black and gold dragon’s eyes.
At the same time.
In the golden dragon eyes, a black sheen gathered in the depths.
Zzz!
Two beams of condensed, high-compression gravitational waves shot out instantly, piercing through the blood sun sword light with greater speed, pressing towards the Elf King.
The Elf King’s body was small.
Saga’s eye beams almost enveloped his entire form.
The Elf King twisted his body, dodging the direct shot of the eye beams, moving as fast as lightning, and in an instant, he was at Saga’s side again. The round, blood-red slash reappeared, slicing upwards towards the dragon’s more vulnerable waist and abdomen.
However.
The expected scene of the sword light tearing through the abdominal armor and causing blood to flow did not occur.
The sword light struck the black and gold dragon’s abdomen but seemed to hit the most indestructible substance in the world, intercepted by an invisible force field covering the dragon’s body.
At the same time.
A massive counterforce suddenly surged from the sword.
Whoosh!
The blood sun sword light flew out, slicing a few unlucky legendary prisoners in half and continuing to sweep across the towering mountains.
Caught off guard, the Elf King’s arm was yanked by the sword, and in a self-slashing motion, the blood-red longsword slashed towards his own neck.
Clang!
The sword, cutting through his skin, trembled.
The Elf King narrowly stopped the sword, avoiding a forced self-decapitation, feeling a slight cold sting on his neck.
Just as he gathered his focus and strength, narrowly avoiding the forced self-slash, a silent black and gold tail shadow appeared in the corner of his eye, striking the Elf King before he could dodge.
An irresistible force hit him.
His armor shattered, and the Elf King was sent crashing towards the ground at an angle.
The piercing sonic boom followed.
As the Elf King crashed into the ground, causing a violent tremor and countless cracks to spread, the mountains previously sliced by the sword light began to collapse, their cuts smooth as mirrors.
The black and gold dragon folded its wings, descending like a meteor of destruction, with an unstoppable and all-destroying momentum, towards the Elf King.
Boom!
The earth shook.
The surrounding mountains cracked and collapsed, terrifying ravines crisscrossing the land like twisted scars.
Amid the flying dust, a blood shadow shot out diagonally, rising into the sky.
The Elf King’s dust-covered face was tense, looking at the world below, obscured by the rising dust.
Universal Attraction!
Suddenly, it was as if an invisible hand emerged from the void, gripping the Elf King tightly, trapping him in a quagmire, unable to move.
Buzz!
The endless dust parted, revealing a blank void trajectory, rushing towards the Elf King.
Struggling, a strong sense of impending death surged in his heart.
The Elf King’s eyes filled with blood, his golden pupils turning into blood-red, his golden skin also fading to a more sinister and ferocious blood-red.
The once handsome and noble golden sun elf.
Transformed into a blood-red elf, exuding evil and violence.
“Blood Sun Manifest! I am the Abyss!”
With a violent roar, a deeper, more intense radiance burst from the Elf King, countless red lights falling from the sky, forming a blood sun centered on him.
Buzz!
The blood light broke through the gravitational control.
The Elf King soared, narrowly avoiding the Annihilation Dragon Breath.
The black and gold dragon shadow, faintly visible in the dust, turned its neck, the Annihilation Dragon Breath following, chasing the Elf King, annihilating everything in its path, turning it into a blank void.
The Elf King maneuvered, flying around the Annihilation Dragon Breath, then diving into the dust-covered area.
The dragon breath ceased.
The black and gold figure and the blood-red light clashed continuously, the ground cracking, mountains collapsing, and the abyssal prisoners retreating further and further.
Surrounded by a solid red light.
The Elf King’s attributes were greatly enhanced, seemingly with endless energy to squander.
He moved with extreme speed, his body creating countless afterimages, attacking the black and gold dragon from all directions.
Countless fierce slashes capable of tearing the sky and earth surged from all directions, sealing off all escape routes, continuously landing on the black and gold dragon.
Each strike was like raindrops hitting a lake, causing faint ripples on the dragon’s body.
Some areas, repeatedly struck, even showed slight crack-like patterns.
Though unable to completely break through.
The damage to Saga’s Force Field was evident, proving the Elf King’s fierce slashes. Ordinary high-ranking Legendaries wouldn’t withstand even one strike.
Yet, the Elf King always managed to evade the black and gold dragon’s counterattacks.
From the outside, it seemed the Elf King had the upper hand.
But only the Elf King knew he was at an absolute disadvantage.
No matter how strong his attacks, he couldn’t truly harm the black and gold dragon. Though he dodged the counterattacks, it wasn’t effortless but rather difficult.
The black and gold dragon, despite its large size, was not sluggish but incredibly swift and fierce in its attacks.
The Elf King, always on edge, narrowly avoided each attack.
The key issue was the immense power of the black and gold dragon’s attacks. One hit would be devastating for the Elf King. The dragon could afford countless mistakes, but the Elf King couldn’t afford even one.
“I can’t continue like this.”
“Any mistake could be my end.”
Under immense pressure, the Elf King remained calm and rational, unwavering, seeking a chance for victory in the slim opportunities.
“My attacks aren’t useless.”
“Repeated hits on the same spot can break its defense.”
“.”
Like dancing on a tightrope, the Elf King narrowly avoided the dragon’s attacks, landing slashes on the black and gold dragon, carefully analyzing the invisible force field covering the dragon.
Minutes later.
The dragon’s claw, carrying the threat of death, struck towards the Elf King.
But unlike before.
Near the dragon’s neck, the Elf King didn’t dodge first and then counterattack.
His eyes were resolute, ignoring the dragon’s attack, raising his arm, gathering endless red radiance on the blood-red longsword, making it look like a blood-red crystal, its edge fully retracted.
Ten Thousand Slashes!
Veins bulged on his arm, his skin cracking.
The fierce slash, exceeding the Elf King’s limit, struck the dragon’s force field.
Before the counterforce could erupt, waves of fiercer slashes surged like tides, appearing almost simultaneously, all landing on the same spot.
Crack.
A visible crack appeared on the force field, rapidly expanding.
“Emperor Dragon, I have won!”
The Elf King roared, his blood-red radiance brighter than ever, five thousand slashes breaking through the force field, the remaining five thousand slashes aiming to decapitate the dragon.
However.
Clang!
In the Elf King’s stunned gaze, a crisp clash like metal rang out, the blood-red longsword striking the golden dragon scales covered in a faint black sheen, only cutting into the surface. The re-emerging force field defense stopped further progress.
At the same time.
The dragon claw, covering the sky, came towards him. The Elf King hastily used his sword as a shield.
Crack!
The longsword shattered, countless fragments embedding into the Elf King’s body, leaving him bloodied and wounded.
However, this momentary block allowed the Elf King to dodge the dragon claw and create distance.
“So close, just a bit more.”
Gazing unwillingly at the black and gold dragon, the Elf King murmured.
He thought his slashes were too slow, allowing Saga’s force field to reactivate.
“Elf, you’re too naive.”
“You did well, causing me some trouble, but that’s all.”
Saga spoke calmly.
The Elf King truly believed he could break the Force Field.
But in reality, sometimes to conserve his Power Essence, Saga didn’t fully activate the Force Field, leading the Elf King to think his attacks could reach its limit.
Moreover, even if he broke the Force Field, Saga’s dragon scales, especially in the Superheavy Battle Form, had incredibly strong defense.
