BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103 Dire State
Zick's mind was in a dire state, there was a very low chance of him stopping until his body was totally destroyed at this rate.
If Zick was aware of this flaw he would have labelled his surviving chances to be lower than 5%.
There was no way Zick, in his current state, would stop for no reason.
"Guhhh!" Lifting up his head, Zick roared with his dragon eyes shining.
Zick rushed towards Zrector who seem to be preparing for something. His wound were healing even as he madly rushed towards it.
At that instant, the clouds in the surrounding started gathering around Zrector's hooves and slowly started covering it's whole body.
The black cloud swirled around making it look like a tornado. They condensed as more and more clouds gathered.
Zick rushed right at Zrector without caring about anything. Black aura swirled around his hand, which looked like a claw.
He swung his claw like hand at Zrector's face after reaching in front of it like a wild beast. The cloud had already formed a layer of protection on Zrector's head by now, making Zick attack land upon it.
Zick looked like a bug when compared Zrector's Humongous body, it was like seeing a ant trying to challenge a elephant.
BANG!!
Zick's hand perfectly landed upon Zrector's head creating an huge air impact. But his hand was not able to break the defence of the black cloud, just pushing Zrector back by a few metres.
The red lightning in the black cloud barrier started resisting him violently. But Zick's scales were easily able to defend against the lightning.
CRACKLE!!
Zrector whole body started radiating red lightning, this lightning had a mysterious effect on the black cloud, making them stronger by another level.
This was a move created by Zrector which increases both its defensive as well as offensive power tremendously.
Lifting its head up violently, Zrector pushed away Zick. All the clouds had already formed into a transparent black armour which protected it by now.
The endless starry sky was revealed, making the sea water shine from the reflection of the stars. It was still in the middle of night at this time.
ROAR!
Zrector roared and started moving it's leg in a running motion, it accelerated at such a speed that its figure blurred for a second, before appearing again in front of Zick who was trying to balance himself.
BANG!!!
Zrector clashed against Zick head first making him fly like a cannonball in the sky. The scales on his chest cracked, falling to the ocean.
The current Zick never tried to dodge and just attacked following his instinct. Making him an easy target for Zrector to attack.
Zrector shooted out the invisible attack again, not giving Zick any time to retaliate.
Zick was flung aside, colliding with the invisible attack and started falling down rapidly.
But surprisingly, Zick suffered zero damage even after getting hit by the invisible attack!
His dragon scales were fully able to block it.
Even his height had increased a little, with his scales growing larger and tougher, shining glossily.
Zick had started diving deeper into the bloodline instinctually feeling the strength of the enemy to be higher than his own. The potential from the dragon heart was being expanded at a rapid rate at this moment.
The dragon lord's heart which looked full of life and beated full of vitality, now looked a little weak with its vitality being extracted like this. It even thumped at a slower pace compared to before.
Stabilizing in the air, Zick started gathering breath at a full speed.
He was preparing for a breath attack!
And this time, the breath attack was formed from a higher form of energy used by the grandmaster instead of aura.
Zick's surroundings started to blur, starting to collapse, not being able to withstand the chaotic power coming from his black aura. His aura had always been on the destructive side from the day it was born, now this weird chaotic power started showing its power to the limit.
People seeing it would feel an ominous sensation rising within them.
Usually, normal humans and knights die instantly when exposed to the higher form of energy.
Zrector flew towards Zick using its full power, it could feel the amount of power behind that attack. If it hit him directly, it would die without leaving behind a corpse.
This threatening sensation was experienced by it a very long time ago. It was when an dragon used one of it's strongest ability-
Dragon breath!
A breath attack to a dragon was considered as a Trump card. Fully showing the value of such an attack.
And Zick was also using the bloodline originating from the dragon Lord, so the breath attack was without a doubt stronger than the one performed by the other dragons.
Zrector created hundreds of red lightning spear in the sky, sending them towards Zick not holding back at all. All of this spear held enough power to kill many master swordsman at an instant.
The black sky got filled with the red spear, making it look like red stars were falling at an immense speed, giving it a charm of its own.
But it was already too late, Zick breathed out black flame at an unprecedented speed. The red lightning spear was destroyed just from getting near him.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Hundreds of explosions occurred in the sky like crackers when seen from a distance.
The breath attack created such an air pressure that it even affected the sea which was more than a kilometre below it. Large tides rose and fell, even the wildlife environment was being affected.
The power of this breath attack had gone up to a horrifying level. It was strong enough to blow up a whole kingdom now.
The breath attack expanded in width at a rapid pace, already surpassing 10 metres when it reached Zrector.
Without any hesitation, Zrector used everything it had to dodge the breath attack. It started flying higher hurriedly, But even with its speed, it couldn't dodge it fully in the end.
Many factors led to it being hit like this.
Zrector's body was larger than Zick so it could not dodge as easily as he did and right now it was very near from Zick's position. The breath attack was also just too fast, all of this attributed to this result.
"Rooaar!" Zrector roarred both from the anger and the pain.
Zick's higher form of energy had forcefully entered its body, making it go through immense pain.
Zrector's back leg had actually degenerated coming in contact with the breath attack. The black cloud barrier wasn't able to block it at all. Zrector continued flying upwards, wanting to gain as much as distance possible from the black breath attack.
But it didn't seem like Zick had any intention of stopping at all. He moved his mouth, following Zrector's figure.
An unknown amount of potential was already used up keeping up this breath attack.
GROWLL... Seeing Zick not giving up on pursuing him, Zrector growled in anger, Its eyes were filled with fury.
It actually also felt fear rising within itself, this made it even more flustered.
Zick's dragon fear was also being enhanced as he grew stronger causing this effect.
At that instant, Zrector suddenly turned around and headed towards Zick. Just when the breath attack was about hit Zrector, its body turned into red lightning and moved in a speed which was hard to follow.
Zrector had used another one of its special abilities. This ability could turn it into red lightning and increase its speed temporarily, but this move had many flaws accompanying it.
If an attack landed on it now, it would suffer damage double than usual.
Maintaining this form also consumes a lot of its higher energy. It can't keep this up for a long time.
And once it reverted back to normal, a lot of its energy would be drained instantly.
There was no ultimate move in this world, there would always be a flaw in a move without exception.
What matters is how this power is used and nurtured.
Zrector transformed into the shape of a eastern dragon.
Zrector in its red lightning form dodged the breath attack easily by twisting around it and headed towards Zick swiftly.
SWISH~
It reached in front of Zick in a second, leaving behind a train of red light. It opened its mow and tried attacking Zick from the right side.
Zick stopped using breath attack and moved away from that spot instinctually immediately, dodging the dragon made of red lightning by hair's breadth. But the very next moment, a huge tail slammed into him, flunging him away.
This time, Zick was able to balance himself soon. There was a long scar in his chest from which blood spilled out profusely.
''Grrrrr!!!!" Zick attacked Zrector covering his whole body in black higher energy.
Zrector turned around and moved towards Zick at full speed too.
Their speed had reached an unbelievable level, allowing them to move hundreds of metres in a second.
BANG!!!
Zick and Zrector clashed causing air pressure to form. The whole ocean below them started spreading to all the sides.
They were now evenly matched.
Only attacks covered in aura or higher form of energy could damage the current Zrector.
Not stopping they started clashing again and again, moving towards an unknown direction.
Ten minutes went by with them only exchanging moves, trying to gain the upper hand.
But, at last Zick had reached his limit. He had used up all the potential which could be extracted from the dragon heart. Making the future profit he would gain from it also vanishes.
The strength that Zick gained was vanishing slowly.
And on the other hand, Zrector had stopped using the special ability to turn its body into red lightning six minutes ago and used its qilin form to fight. There were many scar all over its body, but it still had a little higher energy left within it.
