The Innkeeper Chapter 1234 Heel

Lex had always excelled at defense, even after he stopped using Regal Embrace. Even without the cultivation technique, the foundation and understanding it gave him were beyond what could be so easily achieved.

Upon that foundation he built a deep and thorough understanding of defense by studying various powerful techniques, formations and various associated concepts. He was quite confident that his defense would not be so easily overturned.

He was correct. It was not easy. It actually required a dragon with a powerful heritage to beco serious to break through his defenses.

In the entire Origin realm, the number of Earth immortals who could have achieved that were not many compared to the whole. They were all exceptional - each and every one of them.

Under ordinary circumstances, Lex would not encounter such beings. But the problem was, the more he pursued the extraordinary, the more he would encounter such unique and exceptional beings.

In that case, building a defense that, for example, 80% of those in his realm could not overco was actually incredibly impressive, but for Lex specifically it was a catastrophic failure. That ant he was still weak to those 20% of beings.

He did not need to be more powerful than just the masses - he needed to be the absolute best. Otherwise, in situations like his current one, where the best from across the realm were gathered together, there were bound to be those among the 20% who could break through his defenses.

That distinction between amazing, and the absolute best, was being able to overco even those exceptional races who had unfair advantages that humans lacked - such as the dragons themselves.

The dragon seemingly made of purple flas was not surprised that his assault worked. Instead, the fact that he had to get serious just to break through a asly barrier confird for him that taking on Lex when he was weak was the smartest solution.

He covered the distance to Lex in an instant, his body tense under the strain of the strength it was using.

There was a massive explosion, shattering the landmass once more and causing an enormous dust cloud to fill the air. The region around Lex had been protected by his formation, but now that it was finally broken, a volcano erupted here as well, and lightning bolts began to rain from the sky as if fighting against the lava.

It looked like an epic battle between the ground and the sky was being raged, and everyone else was suffering the consequences. By now, the relatively stagnant laws of this zone had also begun to tremble. Compared to energies, which were in a constant state of flow, laws were usually firm and fixed.

But what made this palace so dangerous was that enough stimulation could cause the laws to waver, which is when the real chaos happened. For better or for worse, it seed that was the direction the zone was going in.

Jeffrey, who had distanced himself from the dragon, looked out at the region of the explosion with a frown. Eliminating a dragon would be tricky. Yet his failure to do so would reveal his true identity as a Wyvern. If that happened many things would be in jeopardy.

Yet if it made the situation any more dangerous in an attempt to eliminate the dragon, his own safety would co into question.

The Wyvern was already considering its future plans when its pupils constricted as the dust cleared.

He had expected to see devastation, of which there was plenty, but what he had not expected to see was the image of the purple dragon pressed into the floor in front of Lex in a prostrated stance.

The dragon was trying to get up. It was genuinely doing its best to resist, but an invisible force kept it down.

The pure montum of his attack had caused him to crash into Lex. Considering the sharpness of his claws and the heat of his flas, it was no surprise that a hole was burned into Lex's suit. That was the extent of the damage though - Lex was still unhard for the most part.

It was uncertain if his charred skin on his chest was due to his own Fire tribulation or the dragon's attack. Either way, such minimal damage would do nothing to even a mortal let alone Lex.

The reason the situation had turned out like this was simple. Lex had lost complete control of his body as he felt like even his mories were burning. As a result, his body let go of all its restraints, and a ten feet region around Lex beca his absolute domain.

His Domination, which he had trained and honed for so long, using not just a Heavenly Immortal dragon but various other powerful auras as well, not to ntion the natural enhancents his aura received from the boost in his personal rise in the Cosmic Ascendance Spectrum from bonding with Lotus and absorbing the Amber Chaos Resin, was completely unleashed in this region in full force.

Much like when Lex encountered Pelvailin's body for the first ti, and was faced with his Dragon's Might, the purple dragon encountered Lex Domination. The difference was that at that ti, Pelvailin's Dragon Might had been in a relaxed state, not to ntion the complete and total loss of its soul, which was the only reason Lex could even tolerate it to begin with. Lex was far from being relaxed, as his entire being was burning, which resulted in his Domination being unleashed in full force, albeit in a smaller region. Lastly, since Lex knew he had pissed off dragons, he had been specifically training to make his Domination more effective against them.

All of that resulted in the fact that, through sheer, unconscious aura alone, Lex had caused a dragon to heel.

Any semblance of sanity Jeffrey had reclaid completely evaporated as he saw the sight. He knew that, as was his habit, he had provoked Lex excessively. The difference was, unlike every other weakling and human he had ever provoked, Lex actually had the capability to hurt him.

A dangerous glint flashed through his eyes as he began contemplating sothing desperate. But he was so focused on Lex, he did not notice that in the distance, another human was slowly approaching him - one with a tallic sheen.
