I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

A dragon\'s roar that shook the Intersecting Boundaries came from the distance, so clear that even the sisters, nearly deaf, looked up in search of its source.

They saw it, a figure wielding a long sword, engaged in an aerie battle with the awe-inspiring Great Dragon God.

This was a scene utterly beyond their comprehension, a spectacle that defied their understanding.

A mere human was fighting on equal terms with the Great Dragon God?

Even more, wounds continuously opened on the Dragon God\'s body by the blade, while the human deftly dodged every attack, never getting hit.

"He... he\'s overpowering the Great Dragon God?"

Dottia covered her mouth with her hands, speaking in disbelief.

Feeling a vague sense of pride, Renea boasted, "Impressive, right? I told you he\'s very strong!"

Dottia: "Huh? What did you say?"

With her eardrums ruptured, she had not heard the remark clearly.

Renea shouted into her ear, "Sister, let\'s go back for now, all we can do is wait!!"

Upon hearing this, Dottia nodded, placed her hands over her full chest, and assumed a prayerful stance towards the battling duo in the sky, hoping the Dragon Slayer would emerge victorious and return safely.

After casting one last hopeful glance at Xue Jing, the sisters, supporting each other, limped back toward their country.

...

Time slowly passed, and before they realized it, nearly five hours had slipped by.

The sky darkened, and a full moon gradually emerged.

During these five hours, Xue Jing had been locked in a relentless death struggle with the True Dragon.

The man and dragon had moved from above the Roaring Great Waterfall to another location, still fighting fiercely.

Xue Jing hadn\'t noticed at first, but soon realized that the True Dragon was purposely guiding their battle\'s trajectory.

They ended up in the territory of the three Guardian Dragons they had previously encountered.

Obviously, the Dragon had not found the reinforcements it expected; all its efforts were in vain.

All the Dragon Breeds within the Intersecting Boundaries had been eradicated by Xue Jing in advance.

The True Dragon understood that this was a planned, organized, premeditated assault against it!

It plunged into madness, hatred surging, throwing itself wholly into the fight with Xue Jing.

In the intense battle, Xue Jing remained under high mental stress, and inevitably, mistakes occurred, and the True Dragon hit him several times.

His physical strength was insufficient compared to the Dragon Breeds; any hit was a near-fatal injury, but fortunately, with the Life Fire stoking rapid regeneration, as long as he wasn\'t instantly killed, he could recover.

However, the expended life force was tangible, and in contrast to the True Dragon, which had been incessantly injured over continuous hours, Xue Jing was nearing utter exhaustion.

Amidst a roar, a flurry of blade glows passed, gouging a deep cross-shaped wound on the True Dragon\'s neck, carving out a large chunk of flesh. Xue Jing caught his breath, dodged the retaliatory sweep, and thought:

"Troublesome..."

Just like the True Dragon with its Dragon Thunder, his Shadow Flame was almost utterly depleted, and almost thirty Plant Pact seeds had evaporated in a previous eruption of Dragon Thunder.

All that remained for him to rely on were his martial arts skills.

But now, with life force nearly spent and physical strength insufficient for sustained intense fighting, he was gradually being cornered.

The Mirror Person noticed this and, clasping its small hands tightly, said with a tense expression:

"Hold on, Xue Jing."

"It\'s almost over. This is about endurance now. It\'s almost at its limit too. Whoever gives in first will lose!"

The Mirror Person said, looking toward the cherry blossoms entwined around the True Dragon\'s horns.

Unlike the increasingly weakening True Dragon itself, the Dragon Horn Cherry, which had previously been somewhat yellow and wilted, was now reviving.

"Something\'s not right," the Mirror Person said, an expression of concern in its eyes.

"Be careful, Xue Jing,"

"This Pureblood hasn\'t used its Core Organ\'s ability from the start. While it may not be able to due to \'claw issues,\' we can\'t be too vigilant!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Jing\'s gaze shifted, also focusing on the only incongruity on the True Dragon\'s body — the Dragon Horn Cherry.

He instantly dashed forward, stepping lightly on thin boards, closing in on its head, and swung his sword at the dragon horn.

But the True Dragon, which had endured all his attacks without dodging, now quickly lowered its head to evade his strike.

With its cover blown, the True Dragon bellowed, utilizing its barely recovered core ability. The cherry blossoms on the dragon horn proliferated rapidly, blooming incessantly and detaching to scatter through the air.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Jing was engulfed in an endless sea of petals.

Under the night sky illuminated by the Full Moon, the infinite petals swamped him, covering him entirely, so vast there was no chance of escape.

"Xue Jing!!"

The Mirror Person cried out.

With each petal that touched Xue Jing, they immediately began draining his dwindling life force as well as his flesh.

Endlessly engulfed in petals, in just under a second, he was reduced to a skeletal husk; even his skin was pulverized and absorbed, the marrow within his bones sucked dry, leaving nothing but a brittle skeletal frame without essence.
