Chapter 1213, Obliterated with a Single Punch

Translator: Silavin

 

The Flame Dragon’s expression was solemn as he addressed the group. “All of you need to be careful. Those vines are basically impossible to guard against. They are also extremely tough. Although I am not a Bronze Dragon adept at close quarters combat, my physical strength is still not to be underestimated. But when I was bound just now, I felt as though I had absolutely no hope of breaking free from those vines. Even my flames were easily absorbed by the vines, rendering them useless. These two are tough opponents.”

 

The Shadow Dragon King nodded at this, agreeing. “They are indeed unusual, different from the other Dragon Carcasses. My attacks could only just barely manage to cut through them. If those vines were any thicker, I fear even I would need to exert several times more effort to cleave through them. So, do be wary of those vines. It will be a challenge to break free of them once you get trapped.”

 

“Heh! How interesting!” The Bronze Dragon King rolled her neck and shoulders, as though her competitive spirit had been roused.

 

*Crack crack crack.*

 

“I’d like to see just how difficult this thing really is to deal with. Don’t tell me you believe it could keep me trapped?”

 

With that, the Bronze Dragon King charged forward.

 

The Shadow Dragon King had wanted to stop her, but then reflected that he seemed to have rather little standing to speak before the Bronze Dragon King, and could only let her do as she pleased.

 

He was confident that with him present, the Bronze Dragon King would not actually be harmed by this thing.

 

They were Dragon Kings, after all. To actually injure them it would surely require the Desolate Ancient God to personally intervene, right?

 

Having the Bronze Dragon King go up and test the limits of the two Life Dragon King Carcasses was actually fine. After all, the Bronze Dragon King was strong, and there was no danger of things going wrong.

 

And at the same time, letting the Bronze Dragon King burn off some of that brute strength meant less would come crashing down onto him afterward. In short, he would get fewer punches and scoldings if he made a ‘mistake’.

 

While the Shadow Dragon King was thinking along these lines, the Bronze Dragon King had already charged into the fray.

 

As the Bronze Dragon King burst from the group and hurled herself toward the two Life Dragon King Carcasses, the latter naturally were not simply going to sit and wait for death.

 

Their bodies heaved, and several vines were commanded to drill up from underground, aimed straight at the Bronze Dragon King.

 

The Bronze Dragon King remained every bit as ferocious as ever, throwing a punch with a sonic boom.

 

*Boom!*

 

Those vines, which had left the Flame Dragon completely immobilised and unable to break free, encountered absolutely no surprise whatsoever, and were directly obliterated.

 

The Bronze Dragon King’s close-combat technique was also superb. She appeared to have already grown thoroughly accustomed to her Human body. She unleashed a continuous string of moves, now a punch, now a kick, her attacks dense and unrelenting like a whirlwind pressing forward.

 

Blast after blast of pressurised gale was launched by the Bronze Dragon King, each strike accompanied by a sonic boom.

 

*Boom! Boom! Boom!*

 

One could well imagine just how terrifying the Damage Output of each of those blasts was.

 

The Bronze Dragon King had practically entered a state of Invulnerability. Every vine that drew near her was smashed apart with a single move; there were no exceptions whatsoever.

 

The Flame Dragon watched with his jaw dropped. Although he had already known, from the earlier incident, that there was a considerable gap between his own strength and that of a Dragon King like the Bronze Dragon King, he had never imagined the gap to be this staggering.

 

Those vines that had rendered him completely helpless were, before the Bronze Dragon King, practically like papier-mâché, with no resilience whatsoever.

 

Never mind those vines. Even if he himself charged up there, he would probably be obliterated by a single punch from the Bronze Dragon King!

 

The oppressive force the Bronze Dragon King exerted landed far more heavily on the Life Dragon King Carcasses than on anyone else.

 

The two Life Dragon King Carcasses, seeing their opponent this ferocious, appeared, despite having no intelligence whatsoever, almost as if they had taken fright, retreating backwards, evidently yielding the path leading to the Valley of Life.

 

At this point, however, now that they had appeared, Lu Fan and his companions naturally had no intention of letting them off and simply entering the Valley of Life.

 

The Bronze Dragon King surged past the Transport Array leading into the Valley of Life and continued charging forward, her target set directly on the two Life Dragon King Carcasses.

 

Faced with a Bronze Dragon King this ferocious, the Life Dragon King Carcasses abandoned all thought of engaging with her. The two of them simultaneously retreated, looking as though they intended to flee.

 

“Trying to run?! Not a chance!” The Bronze Dragon King roared, no longer bothering to obliterate vines, and instead directly extending a hand to seize one vine in her grip.

 

Then, with a mighty exertion of strength, she actually wrenched the vine clean out from the ground by sheer force.

 

This vine appeared to have drilled up from underground, but in reality, it was connected to the Life Dragon King Carcass’s body.

 

The moment the vine was seized, one Life Dragon King Carcass found itself restrained as well. The Bronze Dragon King gave a violent pull, dragging its body into a backward flight, sending it crashing toward the Bronze Dragon King.

 

“Get back here!” The Bronze Dragon King let out a furious roar, then released the vine in her hand, pushed off with one foot, and charged straight at the Life Dragon King Carcass.

 

*Boom!*

 

A sonic boom, and the Bronze Dragon King had already collided with the Life Dragon King Carcass in midair.

 

The Bronze Dragon King threw another full-force punch, landing squarely on the Life Dragon King Carcass.

 

*Boom!*

 

A tremendous blast, and the Life Dragon King Carcass exploded in midair, turning into countless fragments that scattered everywhere.

 

The Bronze Dragon King landed, shook the mud from her hands, and said with disdain: “*Hmph!* That’s it?”

 

The Bronze Dragon King looked toward the other Life Dragon King Carcass, and noticed that upon witnessing its companion slain, the latter had not chosen to continue fleeing, but had simply stopped where it stood.

 

“You want to die together with your companion? That’s fine. Then I’ll send you off to join it!” The Bronze Dragon King gave a cold laugh and made to walk toward the second Life Dragon King Carcass.

 

At this moment, however, Lu Fan suddenly noticed something amiss.

 

The body fragments of the Life Dragon King Carcass that had just been obliterated showed no signs whatsoever of any Ancient God Power dissipating. The Ancient God Power remained within those fragments.

 

Clearly, the Life Dragon King Carcass had not been truly killed with a single punch, and still had a move in reserve!

 

Lu Fan immediately warned. “Be careful! Those fragments on the ground…”

 

*Slither. Snap. Pa!*

 

Before Lu Fan’s warning could even leave his mouth, the fragments on the ground instantly transformed into vine after vine, and with the speed of thunder entangled the Bronze Dragon King.

 

Although Lu Fan had already called out a warning, the Bronze Dragon King had still not had time to take any precautions against those ground fragments, and was immediately bound fast by several vines in the first moment, transformed directly into a great cocoon.

 

Those vines were simultaneously writhing and twisting, clearly constricting without pause, intent on cinching the Bronze Dragon King inside directly to a pulp.

 

*Pa! Swoop! Criiiiik!*

 

Seeing this, Lu Fan was instantly alarmed.
