Chapter 2918 - 2917: A Baffled Dracula
Chapter 2918: Chapter 2917: A Baffled Dracula
In the depths of the Azure Water Abyss, this mysterious realm shrouded in dense black fog seems to be the darkest corner of the world, where even sunlight cannot penetrate the layers of black mist, leaving only a dead silence and oppression.
In this domain, Lin Dong is currently gathering the power of ’Sword Two’.
Dracula, standing aside, thought Lin Dong was really crazy, using Sword Two just to kill this Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile.
"Could it be, he’s not afraid I’ll just take advantage of the situation? Does he trust me that much? Or, does he have other reliance?"
"Or perhaps he feels that I need him, that I want him to help me break the array formation restriction of the Ancient General’s Tomb? So I won’t harm him?" Dracula wondered.
Meanwhile, opposite Lin Dong, the momentum on the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile also changed.
As the overlord of the Azure Water Abyss, its massive body is mountain-like, covered entirely with scales that shimmer with a ghostly glow, each seemingly imbued with endless power and mystery.
Its eyes were like two cold stars in the abyss, twinkling with cruelty and cunning. A skull hung at the corner of its mouth, a trophy from a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist it killed before retreating years ago.
Lin Dong stood opposite him, facing this terrifying demon beast. His silhouette appeared particularly lonely yet resolute in the faint light.
He gathered the power of Sword Two, his figure flickering with a faint blue light in the darkness, like a glimmer of hope from a distant sky, contrasting sharply with the surrounding darkness.
The might of Sword Two grew increasingly strong, making the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile more and more uneasy.
It unleashed an even more terrifying momentum than before.
"Humans, daring to provoke me, do you see these skulls between my teeth? These all come from you human warriors. The weakest of these skulls belonged to Earth Realm martial artists."
"There are quite a few Heavenly Realm martial artists as well. Your skull will soon join them... I’ll place you in the most visible gap between my teeth."
The Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile uttered these words, and afterward, its momentum became countless times more terrifying, pressing toward Lin Dong.
When Lin Dong felt the overwhelming pressure from the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile, he took a deep breath, his gaze blazing, and his entire momentum surged dramatically.
He had already used Sword One earlier to test the defense of the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile.
"With four layers of Sword Two’s power, I could break through its defense just now. But to be safe, better use five layers of power!"
Thus, he made up his mind, bringing the gathering of ’Sword Two’ to a halt.
"Sword Two, Sword Comes Out Like a Dragon!"
"Whish~~~"
Lin Dong swung out Sword Two, utilizing the five-layer power of ’Sword Two’.
A Sword Light capable of igniting daylight traced a graceful arc from his hand, with the sword tip pointing directly at the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile.
"Hah!" With a furious shout, all his strength seemed to be fully unleashed at this moment, and the ’Sword Two’ in his hand, like an unbridled wild horse, slashed fiercely toward the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile with an unstoppable momentum.
This slash embodied Lin Dong’s deep understanding of Kendo, as well as the ultimate exploration of his strength. Wherever the sword light passed, space seemed to split apart.
The Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile sensed the power of this slash, not daring to underestimate it, and quickly summoned its strongest defense.
Its scales shone with a golden luster, enveloping its entire figure in a dazzling glow, making it appear as if draped in a layer of golden armor.
"Boom~~~"
At the same time, Lin Dong’s slash landed on its defensive scales.
The seemingly indestructible scales emitted a ’crack’ sound under this slash.
Its star-like cold eyes revealed an expression of disbelief for the first time. It felt that the power contained in this slash was a world apart compared to Lin Dong’s previous use of ’Sword One’.
It was not only a physical impact but also a mental shock, as if some mysterious power had pierced through its defense, striking directly at its soul.
"Is this... really a slash that a human Third-Layer Heavenly Boundary Martial Artist can unleash?"
The Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile murmured to itself, filled with shock and incomprehension. It had never seen such a powerful sword technique, nor imagined that one human Third Layer Heaven Martial Artist could unleash such astonishing power.
In this moment, it felt the threat of death for the first time, an unprecedented fear and unease.
It hadn’t felt this way for many years.
"No~~~~" As this thought surfaced, it watched helplessly as its own scale defense split in two.
Moreover, the life force within it was slowly dwindling. It wanted to gather demon energy to counterattack, but plainly couldn’t do it.
Not to mention gathering demon energy, even its consciousness was beginning to blur.
Lin Dong then took one step after another towards the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile.
After approaching, he mumbled something: "I actually underestimated you. I initially thought four-layer power would take you down. But to be safe, used five layers of Sword Two."
"Unexpectedly, even with five-layer power, it didn’t kill you immediately. I still have to give a finishing blow..."
Lin Dong shook his head, feeling that among the demon beasts, the Demon Emperor in the first tier under the Secondary Ancestor had unbelievably tough skin and strong defense.
Even with a slash it wasn’t killed, still needing a finishing blow!
If this were used against a human warrior, whose defense could withstand it? Perhaps only myself? Or someone using secret method defenses like the White-clothed Blood Monk.
Unexpectedly, this casually encountered Four-star Peak Demon Emperor could withstand it.
Hearing these words, in its dying moments, the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile spat a mouthful of black-red blood.
It really wanted to curse.
It thought the opponent had used all his strength in that one slash, bringing it to the brink of death, not realizing the opponent only used five-layer strength.
Learning this news at its moment of death, it simply made it even more unable to die in peace.
It wanted to curse Lin Dong, but had no chance.
Lin Dong acted directly.
"Sword One!" Finally, Lin Dong used ’Sword One’ to strike the heart exposed after breaking its defense.
"Whish~~~" This time, Sword One wasn’t deflected but instead pierced straight through its heart.
"Bang~~~"
The massive body of the Netherworld Devouring Sky Crocodile fell heavily to the ground, dead on the spot.
As it died, its eyes were wide open, unable to die in peace.
Witnessing this scene, Dracula stood stunned, unable to help asking Lin Dong: "Brother Lin, weren’t you only able to use Sword Two once?"
"Yes, I only used Sword Two once." Lin Dong replied with arms spread.
"But didn’t you just use Sword One again?" Dracula queried once more.
"Indeed, but now I can’t use Sword Two again. So, Brother Dracula, do you perhaps, wish to gain from others’ battles?" Lin Dong looked at him and asked casually.
Dracula’s face changed slightly, and he quickly said: "What are you saying, Brother Lin? I’ve never had such thoughts."
He looked at Lin Dong, not showing any signs of exhaustion, clearly still having trump cards.
Hastily clarifying his standpoint, not wanting Lin Dong to misunderstand.
Meanwhile, mentally shaken, he thought: "It seems that previous intel on Lin Dong is outdated. His strength now has grown much stronger.
"Perhaps he’s no longer limited to using Sword Two just once. Such strength, it’s terrifying and dangerous. Even some weaker Secondary Ancestors wouldn’t dare say they could defeat him."
