The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming-Chapter 688 - 684: The Hidden Path
Chapter 690: Chapter 684: The Hidden Path

“Not bad, but still not fast enough. Even I can see your sword-swinging posture, as if you were dancing,”
“Put in more effort, and when your slashes are so quick that even my naked eye can’t see them, that’ll mean your Dragon Slaying Swordplay has reached an Excellent standard,”
David Jones encouraged, patting the Gluttonous Beast on the head.
Azr: “???”
Is that even human language?
As the Sword Spirit of the Chaos Emperor Blade, Azr hadn’t expected that a mechanical Emperor Dragon could master the Dragon Slaying Swordplay to an Excellent Level within just a few seconds after being empowered, so much so that it hadn’t even had the chance to act and earn Dragon Crystals before the Gluttonous Beast, relying on the sharpness of the Chaos Emperor Blade, instantly killed twelve Black Sun Worms.
“Roar!” (I’ll give it my all next time!)
The Gluttonous Beast nodded earnestly, its face still showing a bit of dissatisfaction.
According to the empowerment description, the Dragon Slaying Swordplay of an Excellent Level should be so fast that it couldn’t be caught by the naked eye or Psychic Perception of a same-level opponent. If David Jones could see its slashes, that proved that its Dragon Slaying Swordplay truly was lacking.
Azr: “…”
What would Dragon Slaying Swordplay of an Excellent Level look like, as if it, the Sword Spirit, didn’t know?
Though it didn’t know the specific Level of the Illusion-Piercing Eye, being able to clearly see the First Style of the dancing sword with its Class VI strength indicated that David Jones’s Spiritual Eye Talent was not low, with an Illusion-Piercing effect comparable to the legendary skill of an Emperor Beast.
So, it was no wonder that even Excellent Level Dragon Slaying Swordplay could be seen clearly.
If we really went by what David Jones said, needing to hide from the perception of the Illusion-Piercing Eye to be considered Excellent, the Dragon Slaying Swordplay would likely have to be trained to a Perfect Level.
“No worries. Practice a few more times, and proficiency will quickly increase.” Seeing the Gluttonous Beast take his words to heart, David Jones suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
He knew about the uniqueness of the Illusion-Piercing Eye, but since the Gluttonous Beast had begun learning swordplay, setting a high goal might not be a bad thing.
The way of the sword is to dare to climb to the utmost heights.
“With the rise of Machinery Pets, the times have truly changed!” Lilith Hoyle watched the Gluttonous Beast with interest.
From the previous battle scenes, she could more or less envision the beautiful scenes of the Emperor Dragon reaping souls with a sword in close combat and executing evil with a cannon from afar!
Rosalind Louise took a deep breath and admired, “Your Dragon Pet’s swordplay is really strong. In that moment you struck, I almost thought I saw a Sword Master. It seems you haven’t spared any effort in training the sword on regular days!”
Hearing this, David Jones’s expression became a bit odd.
He couldn’t exactly say that he had spent fifteen Dragon Crystals on microtransactions, Azr had empowered it for two and a half seconds, and then the Gluttonous Beast had suddenly possessed a considerable sword cultivation.
And this is the power that microtransactions bring!
“Roar.” (You have a good eye.)
The Gluttonous Beast looked at Rosalind Louise with a delighted expression and quickly moved forward to take care of its spoils of war.
The precious Magic Core belonged to the Trainer, and the remaining Class VI blood and flesh naturally served as its own fodder for Infinite Integration.
…
The obliteration of the Black Sun Worms was just a minor episode, not even warranting a break as David Jones and his companions continued on their way.
On the road ahead, aside from the Black Sun Worms, David Jones and his party encountered several more Beast herds.
Unsurprisingly, the Species Level of these Beasts was only that of the Commander, but under the strengthening power of the Dragon Force of the End, they broke the norm, becoming irascible and easily angered Class VI Beasts.
Honestly, even a newly crowned King Trainer could swiftly crush these faux-Class VI King Beasts in a one-on-one fight.
But the Fire-type Beasts mutated within the tunnel were social creatures. When gathered together, they posed a threat that even veteran Kings dared not underestimate. Without careful handling, there was a real risk of a disastrous loss.
Fortunately, the mutated Beasts within the Relic were of both fire and dragon Types.
“`
With the Chaos Emperor Blade and type restraint, the Gluttonous Beast and Rainbow took turns sweeping through, and in just half a day, a large volume of pseudo Class VI King resources were brought to David Jones.
And these Pet Resources were all very valuable, requiring only part of them to be sold, David Jones’s wallet, which became deflated after purchasing Time Stones, would soon be plump again.
“Sister, this is a Fire-Resist Bead.”
Noticing the discomfort on Rosalind Louise’s face, David Jones proactively took out a bead the size of a fish’s eye, emitting a purple glow and giving off a cooling sensation.
As they got closer and closer to the Dragon of the End, the temperature around them also rose higher and higher, so high that eventually, even Rainbow became lazy to make a move, preferring to hide in David Jones’ arms to cool off.
“No need, I still have a Five Fire Ruby on me.” Rosalind Louise, clad in a high-temperature protective suit, refused.
The temperature inside the Relic today was far higher than the last time she was there, but as uncomfortable as it was, she didn’t want to use up her precious favors over such trivial matters.
She was well aware that the searing temperature around her would only make her breathe a little heavily and wouldn’t lead to dehydration.
“Three feets.”
Lilith Hoyle commanded, and the dazzling divine bird gently spread its wings, releasing its skill to give Rosalind Louise a constant temperature status.
“Thank you, Teacher.” Rosalind breathed out a puff of hot air.
Another half an hour passed.
Rosalind looked at the increasingly familiar corridor nearby, her expression starting to become tense.
“After passing through this rocky bend and crossing that Lava River ahead, we will reach the Dragon of the End’s location.”
Upon hearing these words, David Jones, who had been reaping Beast resources along the way, had a flash of anticipation in his eyes.
As the Ultimate Emperor of the Fire type, unlike the Firewood Kylin in the Mesona Space, which was equivalent to a human infant in age, the fully matured and apex Dragon of the End possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.
Since he had come all this way, he had to catch a glimpse of such a formidable being.
“Meow-wow!”
Daphne’s heart raced as she, too, flashed a bit of curiosity in her pupils.
According to what Rosalind had said, the Dragon of the End could be considered her ancestor, and she wondered if the Essence Blood of such an ancestor could make her and David Jones stronger.
Lilith Hoyle glanced at the Circle Map sent by Gees Goldsmith, her brow slightly furrowed, always feeling that there would be some twists and turns on this Relic journey.
Being a powerful trainer at Lilith Hoyle’s level, intuition was often more accurate than the five senses, and in her view, the Peony Colledge-dreaded Dragon of the End definitely posed many issues!
Walking along, Daphne in David Jones’ arms suddenly looked towards the dead end on the right side of the Lava passageway, a direction quite different from the one pointed out by Rosalind.
“What’s wrong?” David Jones asked.
“Meow!” (There’s something!)
Daphne gazed intently at the Lava rock wall, her heart beating even more fiercely.
“Let’s go check it out first,” decided Lilith Hoyle.
“It seems like a dead end here!” Relying on the protection of the Fire-Resist Bead, David Jones forcefully slapped the Lava rock wall in front of him, and even using his Illusion-Piercing Eye, he could only see ordinary Lava stone inside.
Lilith Hoyle and Rosalind both turned their gazes towards Daphne.
“Meow!”
When Daphne raised her paw slowly and touched the Lava rock wall, the ground began to tremble, and the water level of the Lava River at their feet crazily receded.
The next instant, an illusory fiery corridor slowly appeared in front of everyone.
