Chapter 263 : 167: Reborn Xue Jing, Heavenly Blade Mystique - Cherry Full Moon, Slaying the True Dragon! (4K)
The form, slightly smaller than before, with its withered and shriveled body was far from the plump beauty of its previous healthy state, the cherry blossoms atop its Dragon Horn yellowed and withered as if they could rot away at any moment.
The once proud and dominating presence that seemed above all creatures, detached from the food chain, had vanished without a trace, and in the dark golden vertical pupils, there was not even room for anger, only the visible exhaustion.
However, when it looked down and noticed Xue Jing standing with his arms crossed, appearing nonchalant, an endless hatred ignited in its pupils.
Then... it turned around and flew off into the distance.
Xue Jing was startled.
"Hey, it thinks it can run away?"
"This Intersecting Boundaries is so tiny, where can it escape to? Chase!"
The Mirror Person immediately said.
Xue Jing nodded, pushed off the ground, and shot out, stepping consecutively on the dark platforms formed by the Shadow Flame in midair, closing in on the True Dragon with extreme speed.
The True Dragon, now reduced to extreme weakness, flew at nearly one-tenth the supersonic speed it started with, constantly having the distance between it and Xue Jing narrowed.
"You need to be careful, it\'s not running because it thinks it can\'t beat you, it\'s afraid you still have \'claws\'!"
The Mirror Person warned.
"Even on the verge of death, a camel is still bigger than a horse. Its combat power now is at least on the level of those three Guardian Dragons; you absolutely can\'t let your guard down!"
Xue Jing\'s eyes slightly narrowed: "Don\'t worry, I understand."
He touched the Crouching Rabbit Sword at his waist, and looking at the True Dragon, still hundreds of meters ahead, he stepped on the dark platform beneath him and activated Twin Speed directly.
"Whoosh—!"
It was as if, all of a sudden, a rocket booster was strapped to his tail, and he closed in on the True Dragon immediately.
"Stop, beast, where are you running!?"
With a shout, Xue Jing\'s figure spun twice in the air as he gathered momentum, drew his sword from its sheath, and slashed at the True Dragon\'s back.
"Hiss—"
As the blade entered flesh, feeling only slight resistance, it smoothly cut through the bark-like scales and deep into the flesh, leaving a deep wound.
By now, the True Dragon, having suffered the hellish pain of the Serpent Slayer Spearhead, did not count this wound\'s pain for much.
But once again offended by this presumptuous little insect, its inner hatred and savage fury immediately overcame its reasoning, no longer caring whether the opponent had another of those \'foreign objects,\' it immediately stopped, turned around, stretched out its claws, and tried to swat Xue Jing as if swatting at a mosquito.
Xue Jing stepped on the platform, dodged the strike with a push in midair, sheathed the Crouching Rabbit, and watched the True Dragon\'s claws with his silver-white Divinity eyes. Then he gathered strength again, drew his sword, and swiftly executed dozens of slashes.
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss—"
The flesh on the True Dragon\'s claws was carved out like butchering meat, leaving only the dark golden claw bones.
Xue Jing pushed off again from midair, plummeted down, the sword flashed, and he appeared below the True Dragon, tearing open a huge wound from its left shoulder to its right waist.
Dark golden blood gushed out, and the True Dragon roared furiously, its body lit up with specks of golden lightning, but the Dragon Thunder had barely emerged before it fizzled out.
Having used up almost all of its Dragon Thunder to deal with the Serpent Slayer Spearhead that had penetrated the Core Organ, it was left with no choice but to chase the elusive Xue Jing with claws, teeth, and tail, as if a flak cannon attempting to swat a mosquito.
Even the True Dragon, weakened to an extreme, still possessed immense power and speed in its movements. The race favored by the heavens did not lack the basic physical abilities.
But Xue Jing was small in stature, a smaller target, endowed with sharp Five Senses and reflexes, as well as Visualization True ability keeping all his surroundings imprinted in his heart, he was unbelievably agile.
He not only managed to perfectly evade all of the True Dragon\'s assaults but also often found opportunities to counterattack in the intervals of its attacks, leaving new sword wounds on its body.
The two continued to engage in close combat, directly attacking each other.
...
On the ground, within a shattered golden shrubbery sphere, Renea\'s eyes opened, blinking in confusion.
Her eardrums, punctured by the intense pain, were suffering along with scrapes and fractures all over her body.
But it seemed... she had survived.
As her vision cleared, Renea, groaning from the pain, struggled to get up and looked around.
Soon, she saw her sister Dottia lying quietly beside her.
Barely lifting her right hand, Renea placed it on Dottia\'s ample fruit, relieved to feel her sister\'s heart still beating, and a joyful smile spread across her face.
"Sister... we\'ve survived."
She gently nudged Dottia\'s body, trying to wake her.
With her hearing greatly reduced from the burst eardrums, to the point she could hardly hear her own voice, she spoke much louder than she intended to.
Dottia was soon awakened from unconsciousness by her shaking.
The sisters, overjoyed at seeing each other alive, embraced tightly and wept with joy.
Only after a good while did the two with diminished hearing speak loudly to each other and communicated with hand gestures, pried open the golden shrubbery sphere, and stepped out into the outside world.
