Just as this overwhelmingly powerful presence was about to launch an effortlessly devastating attack, it suddenly halted its movent, allowing the trembling night tribe girl kneeling at the cliff’s edge to live a few seconds longer. Then it turned its attention to the phantom figure it had previously scorned.
This was because that figure had suddenly undergone a complete transformation. A being with imnse vitality had replaced it, descending from an unknown distance, intriguing the presence greatly.
"Not bad, a suitable sacrifice."
The Abyssal Bone Dragon’s hollow eye sockets fixated on the human youth who had arrived, satisfied with the life force emanating from him, as if realizing that it had incorrectly judged the girl; this was the true offering for it.
anwhile, Wang Zhifan, who shifted from the underground wilderness to his avatar, was also observing it. He wore a Wind Concealing Conical Hat on his head and wielded a dark sword, scrutinizing the massive entity within the abyss.
"You’re not bad either, quite suitable for feeding my sword."
He spoke with an effortlessly casual tone towards the unbelievably powerful presence ahead, as if he were looking at a re dish.
"Hehehe..."
The massive bone dragon’s head laughed upon hearing him, the laughter containing disdain and a hint of offended anger.
Then, in the next instant, it suddenly launched its attack! A terrifying, invisible energy burst out from within its gaping jaws, directed right at Wang Zhifan at the cliff’s edge— a severe punishnt upon a sacrificial offering that dared offend it!
But as Wang Zhifan faced this overwhelmingly formidable presence, he felt a bit disappointed. Raising the dark greatsword in his hand, he slashed upwards.
"Still so temperantal with nothing but bones left; not even close to the one in the tower."
It turned out he was comparing this creature with the Magma Sea Giant Dragon inside the dark tower. Though this one might have a slightly stronger aura because its body was rely bones, causing its energy to overflow and seem more intense, its actual strength wasn’t necessarily greater than the Magma Sea’s. Besides, the other creature was smart enough to act subservient to ensure its survival, yet this one didn’t seem to recognize strength differences, which was a considerable flaw.
Knowing that Wang Zhifan didn’t co here through dream traversal to give himself a challenge but had determined through his avatar that this Bone Dragon was rely a superficial threat, he decided to co and harvest it. Otherwise, he would continue slaying monsters and feeding his sword in the usual area. This was why he arranged for his avatar to follow the girl, to minimize risk and maximize gain.
"You dull giant, let test the Sinful Greatsword’s power on you!"
Feeling sowhat disappointed, Wang Zhifan then unleashed all his power onto the Sinful Greatsword he wielded. Using advanced swordsmanship, he activated the greatsword, sending a resplendent blade light slashing upwards towards the bone dragon’s breath.
Don’t think the action of using a sword like a blade is absurd; it is very much in line with the cultivation of an advanced swordsman. Ultimately, a swordsman’s strength lies within themselves and not on whether they have a sword or weapon in hand. For a truly skilled swordsman, the impact of external tools isn’t decisive. As long as a swordsman holds a blade in their heart, anything can beco their knife!
BOOM!!!
At the junction of the dark underground wilderness and the abyss, an explosive sound echoed as two mighty forces collided, creating a chaotic vortex mid-air, seemingly on even terms.
"Not nearly as powerful as the Blade of Ti; it seems this sword hasn’t matured yet."
After the first wave of confrontation, Wang Zhifan remained firmly standing at the cliff as he stated his assessnt.
In the past, he had slashed with all his might in the tower, instantly killing a colossal head sculpture boss; the scene then was much more explosive than now. There’s no denying that, in terms of power augntation, the Sinful Greatsword still falls short compared to the Blade of Ti.
While Wang Zhifan felt dissatisfied with his attack’s intensity, the Bone Dragon was different. If its enormous, hollow eye sockets could express emotion, they would surely show an astonished look.
The reason being, it had been a long ti since it had encountered such a powerful human, so strong that it felt a genuine sense of danger, and the opponent seed to attack effortlessly.
"Human, I have never seen you, nor your power, before. State your na."
Profoundly puzzled, it imdiately initiated an inquiry, as often happens after a stalemate.
Initially intending to continue his attack, Wang Zhifan saw the enormous bone dragon montarily hold back and express a desire for dialogue, so he prepared to gather so intelligence.
"Bone Dragon, if you want to know my na, first tell where the Demon King is. It’s a very fair trade."
Upon hearing his query, the enormous bone dragon didn’t answer imdiately but slightly parted its jaws in a smile.
"Demon King? Which one do you want to ask about? I was once the Demon King! If you an the despicable demon who stole my power, it’s still locked up in the prison! Hahaha!"
ntioning this topic made the Bone Dragon slightly agitated, hinting at so painful mories related to the term "Demon King."
"This creature was once the Demon King? If I kill it, will it be a straight pass for the quest?"
Excitent welled up in Wang Zhifan as he thought about it. He was confident that if he spared no effort, he would undoubtedly kill the Bone Dragon ahead, and although it might cost him, the opportunity to clear the quest was surely worth it.
"Human, you reminded of unpleasant things... The despicable demon is about to break free from its prison... I could have continued to endure it all, but you’ve shown a new possibility..."
The massive bone dragon in the abyss said with its eye sockets blazing with intense blue flas.
"Work with ! Human! I’ll tell you how to defeat that demon! After success, I’ll support you in becoming the new Demon King, letting you enjoy imnse power and glory!"
The Bone Dragon was nearly losing control of its emotions at this point, speaking loudly with an almost hysterical excitent.
"The thod to defeat the Demon King?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhifan stopped his attack intentions. To be cautious, this information was hugely significant for him, provided the Bone Dragon wasn’t bluffing.
"Yes! Do you know why that despicable demon can remain long in the material plane? Do you know why it cannot be killed? It’s all because it stole my power, dragging to this state! I am the one who understands its existence the most! And you have the power to assist ! Human! Together we can end its shaless life once and for all!"
The Bone Dragon spoke loudly and continuously, heedless of its words echoing within the surrounding area, reminiscent of a loud but foolish conspiracy.
"Quit with the nonsense! Just tell how to take it down!"
Feeling that this creature might be sowhat ntally unhinged, making it increasingly prone to deviations, Wang Zhifan wasted no ti, demanding the creature get straight to the point.
Yet the Bone Dragon beca shrewd at this mont, not providing a direct answer but offering a general strategy:
"The thod is to lure that despicable demon into this abyss! I will assist you in dealing with it! Once we defeat it together, it will forever lose the Demon King’s power! It’s the only successful thod!"
"That simple?"
After hearing its proposal, Wang Zhifan displayed a doubtful expression, mainly feeling that if the Demon King were that easily defeated, humans in this world should have resolved it long ago; it couldn’t be knowledge exclusive to him.
"Could it be that the creature is more dreadful after regaining its Demon King status? Thus no human faction could possibly ally with it?"
After pondering a mont, Wang Zhifan felt this possibility was substantial.
