Chapter 1215, Absolute Power

Translator: Silavin

 

Fortunately, after taking such terrifying Damage, the Life Dragon King Carcass ultimately failed to reassemble.

 

Within the range of Lu Fan’s perception, he could clearly sense the Ancient God Power within the Life Dragon King Carcass rapidly dispersing, flowing back into the surrounding mud.

 

It was possible that the Ancient God Power within the Life Dragon King Carcass had not been entirely wasted. It must just have been reabsorbed by the Desolate Ancient God, with only minor losses.

 

But the Life Dragon King Carcass itself had thoroughly lost the ability to reconstitute itself.

 

At least for now.

 

There was no helping it. However formidable the Desolate Ancient God might be, its Ancient God Power still required a vessel. Even after a vessel was shattered, it could still use Ancient God Power to patch it back together and restore it. But there was a limit to this.

 

Like now, the Life Dragon King Carcass had been reduced by the Bronze Dragon King’s single blow to the point where it could no longer even bear Ancient God Power. So even if the Desolate Ancient God wished to reconstitute it, the Ancient God Power would find nothing to contain it. Without a vessel, the effort would be useless.

 

One could say that the Bronze Dragon King’s single blow had utterly destroyed the Life Dragon King Carcass’ ability to reconstitute their body, meaning she had thoroughly defeated them.

 

In time, after making enough repairs, the Desolate Ancient God might still be able to reconstitute a new Life Dragon King Carcass. But this would require time.

 

Watching the Life Dragon King Carcass fail to come back, the Bronze Dragon King let out a cold snort, mocking, “So this is all you amount to. You hurt me just now and I thought you had something impressive, but this is all you can show for? In that case, I shall tidy all of you up, so you stop becoming stumbling blocks on our path forward.”

 

With that, she turned her sights on the remaining Life Dragon King Carcass.

 

The remaining Life Dragon King Carcass immediately sensed the immense threat bearing down upon it. Without the slightest hesitation, it turned and fled at once.

 

If earlier, when they had retreated, it must just have been a trap, a scheme to lure the Bronze Dragon King in and ambush her. But now, it was running away purely for survival.

 

After all, when the Bronze Dragon King could shatter their bodies with a single blow and leave them unable to reconstitute themselves, staying here was simply seeking death.

 

The Life Dragon King Carcass, however limited its intelligence, at least understood that much.

 

What a pity that trying to run now was a little too late.

 

The moment the Bronze Dragon King reverted to her Dragon Form, its fate had been sealed.

 

Seeing the enemy attempt to flee, the Bronze Dragon King did not rush to give chase.

 

Lu Fan could only see the Bronze Dragon King arch her body, like a drawn bow ready to release its arrow.

 

The air around her seemed to congeal, and along with it, the Principles of Time and Space gathered and solidified, becoming as hard as stone.

 

Lu Fan felt it clearly. He could not explain why, but he had the distinct sense that the passage of time around him had slowed, and the Life Dragon King Carcass’ retreating speed had become peculiarly sluggish.

 

Just as Lu Fan was struggling to understand what was happening, he suddenly saw that the Bronze Dragon King had already moved, surging forward in a single burst.

 

Everything in the world, beneath that slow passage of time, appeared as sluggish as tortoises.

 

Only the Bronze Dragon King’s form remained as agile as ever, her surging speed undiminished from its peak. Even Lu Fan could only barely track her movement.

 

Comparing that speed against the passage of time made it abundantly clear just how terrifying the Bronze Dragon King’s velocity was from the perspective of the Life Dragon King Carcass.

 

As the Bronze Dragon King surged out, the Principles of Time and Space around her were suddenly smashed apart, allowing the passage of time to return to normal.

 

But by then, the Bronze Dragon King had already arrived before the Life Dragon King Carcass and brought her claw down upon it.

 

*Boom!*

 

In an instant, one claw descended. The Life Dragon King Carcass had not the slightest chance of avoiding it and was directly obliterated on the spot by the Bronze Dragon King, annihilated to particles so fine they were nearly invisible. It was as though it had vanished into thin air.

 

And with that, both Life Dragon King Carcasses had been completely destroyed by the Bronze Dragon King.

 

Though at the outset, the Bronze Dragon King had appeared to nearly fall into a disadvantaged position, having been ensnared by the Life Dragon King Carcasses’ scheme.

 

But in truth, even that had simply been the result of the Bronze Dragon King not taking them seriously.

 

Once the Bronze Dragon King got serious, transforming into her Dragon Form, she crushed them with absolute power in a straightforward display of dominance, shattering both Life Dragon King Carcasses.

 

The gap in strength could only be described as an unbridgeable chasm.

 

After destroying both Life Dragon King Carcasses, the Bronze Dragon King’s body rapidly shrank, and she soon reverted to her Human Form once again.

 

It seemed that for her, her Human Form was the one that felt most comfortable.

 

“*Hmph!* Seriously. So weak, yet those Skills are so insufferable.” The Bronze Dragon King was still somewhat put out, and gave another wave of her hand.

 

*Boom!* Beneath that tremendous force, a blast of powerful wind erupted, blasting the spot where the Life Dragon King Carcasses had perished into a massive crater, as though grinding their very bones to dust and scattering the ashes.

 

Lu Fan stared in astonishment. Seeing the Bronze Dragon King come casually walking back, he could not help but ask, “What Skill did you use just now? I had the feeling Time itself had slowed. It was almost as though it was some Skill for manipulating Time Principles?”

 

The Bronze Dragon King heard this and much of her earlier anger faded. She looked at Lu Fan with a smile and asked, “You are a Dragon Tamer, no? Are you not familiar with each Dragons’ Traits? Our Bronze Dragon Clan fights in battle using only our physical bodies. We do not even possess Dragon Language Skills. How could we possibly command the Principles of Time?”

 

“But…” Lu Fan frowned, because he had clearly felt the passage of time slow just moments ago. Surely that had been caused by some Skill?

 

Seeing Lu Fan’s puzzlement, the Shadow Dragon King said from nearby, “She did not use any Skill. The reason you felt Time Principles being affected is because her power has already grown formidable enough to alter the fabric of time. Not only the Time Principles, even Space Principles are influenced by her power. This is just the Trait of the Bronze Dragon Clan. Though they have no ability to unleash Dragon Language Skills, on just raw strength alone, they can achieve many things.”

 

“What? Through raw strength alone, she can alter the Principles of Time and Space!?” Lu felt his entire worldview teetering on the edge of collapse.

 

The Bronze Dragon King saw that expression on Lu Fan’s face, and her smile deepened. “Yup. Through sheer strength. It’s just like any Skill. As long as it is powerful enough, any Skill is able to cause Space Principles to collapse. Easy to understand, no? After all, with your abilities, unleashing a Skill on that level should not be difficult.”
