Semua Bab The Way of the Dragon: Bab 161 - Bab 170

Dragon Lizards were rare creatures, and not many knew of their existence. Though, rumors of them roaming about persisted throughout. Not even the most skilled fighters would dare cross this beast. ‘Spirits and Alchemists can’t even take on seven-tiered beasts, much less an Agile!’ Zephyr thought. He had to run, and fast. His body trembled in fear, he did not expect to meet such a monster in such a place. Zephyr ignited Lightfoot, preparing to speed away. “If this thing gets out, all of Ahi will be in trouble!”A great roar came, its vibrations travelled and stopped Zephyr in his tracks. He had not gotten far. Zephyr spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, before collapsing to the ground. Zephyr would not so easily escape from its clutches. The Lizard roared once more, blowing away boulders. Zephyr covered his ears by the loudness of the roar. He felt as though the whole place was about to explode. ‘F*ck! Am I really going to die here?!’ Zephyr thought. He felt as though his muscles and te

“What do you think? You’re lucky I’m just an ounce of what I am, otherwise that thing would be dead by now! Give me your body, only then will I be able to slay it!” the Serpent answered. “Not to worry, I’d find you a new body for your spirit!” It continued. “You want my body?” Zephyr laughed. “Indeed. I want it, you should be honored! It is something most can only dream of!” the Serpent replied coldly. Zephyr could not stop laughing at that.The Winged Serpent’s power was undeniably strong. It was able to retain its intelligence through a bit of spirit stolen from the Dragon Lizard. Were it to be at its full power, it would be absolutely devastating. However, Zephyr knew if he had offered his body to it, the Serpent would no doubt absorb his spirit too. It would never honor its word!“Have you thought it over? I promise I’ll make it worth your while!” the Serpent pushed. It was obvious it was unable to resist the Lizard’s resistance much longer. The Lizard itself was in a difficult p

Zephyr’s third scale was not as strong as the others, due to it being a gift of sorts. Zephyr slowly closed his eyes, and assessed his well-being. He realized he had been severely injured. He was suffering from great internal bleeding, and many of his veins had been ruptured. If it were not for The Way of the Dragon, his body would have given up earlier.Without the threat of either the Dragon Lizard or Winged Serpent, it was the best time for Zephyr to train himself. As he controlled his Might, Zephyr’s body lit up once more. His body was like a black hole as it swallowed the energy from the Dragon Lizard. With this boon, Zephyr’s rune improved drastically. Finally, the rune fully manifested itself upon Zephyr. It glowed a mystical, faint blue color. On top of it, electrical sparks could be felt. It rested upon Zephyr’s forehead, signifying his increase in power. Zephyr’s Might itself improved by manifolds too. After the training, the third scale also looked to be more materialized.

Suddenly, right as Samson finished, a sharp burst of energy rushed forward. Its aura was palpable. “Watch it! We’re under attack!” Samson reacted quickly, immediately gathering his energies for a counterattack. A round of agonizing screams rang out. Not long after, the sound of four bodies had hit the floor. All four of them were bloodied and filled with holes, it was truly a horrible sight to see. However, the holes themselves were an even more of a strange sight. This was because it had burn marks on it. Within, the pop and sparkle of electricity could be heard. Even the blood on the surface looked to be evaporating from the heat.“Who are you!!” Samson demanded, screaming to the heavens. The men who were just killed were Strengths of level nine. They were even the prized members of his team. Any loss of one would have angered Samson, much less four. After all, they were his greatest help. “Who are you?! Show yourself!” Samson screamed once more.Suddenly, a streak of light rushed

“Pathetic!” Zephyr laughed as he watched Samson Leed look back at him with a wide-eyed stare. Zephyr was way stronger than Samson ever could be, he had made sure of that. He proceeded to loot the bodies, thus gaining a total amount of 80,000 points thereafter. Zephyr was shocked. “Samson was good, I guess. Most could only get 10,000, yet here he was with eighty!” Although Zephyr had way more points, he still kept Samson’s. Apart from points, Zephyr also kept some tools and skills from them.Suddenly, Zephyr noticed a black bottle. The bottle looked to be carved from stone, and on its surface were strange engravings. As he reached for the bottle, he was shocked to find it to be extremely heavy. He figured it was about a couple hundred pounds worth of weight. This led Zephyr’s curiosity to grow. He opened the bottle cap, allowing a stream of energy to flow out. Its properties were almost dream-like. Zephyr took one whiff, and felt his body’s energies churn.“Rejuvenating Springwater?”
