Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

A vast expanse of red earth appeared before her, the air thick with the smell of sulfur. She looked up and saw a massive volcano erupting in the distance, billowing plumes of smoke rising into the sky and crimson lava cascading down.

Now...

It wasn't cool under the skirt, but rather burning hot.

Immediately.

Tender green grass sprouts from the soil, spreading like a carpet across the red earth. Towering trees rise from the ground, swaying gracefully, and grow into ancient, towering trees in just a few breaths.

A refreshing breeze blew in from the southeast, neutralizing the dryness in the air, and Melville clearly felt the temperature drop.

Finally, a tree shimmering with golden light grew behind Zuo Chang.

Each leaf on it is a dazzling golden leaf.

The two realms overlapped, each displaying its unique power. This area currently possesses all the characteristics of both "fierce volcanoes" and "whispering forests."

If the two parties have a conflict in one of their characteristics—

The high temperature and dryness of the ferocious volcano are clearly inconsistent with the style of the Whispering Forest.

Then, the two domains will clash. The final result will be determined by the priority of each domain.

The level of "priority" depends on the rarity of the domain.

The Whispering Forest is already a top-tier domain technique, and with the "Tree of Heaven" guarding it, it's far superior to the ordinary Ferocious Volcano!

Dragon clearly felt the air becoming cooler and more humid. He frowned and thought to himself, "His domain is superior to mine. If this drags on any longer, the volcano will be swallowed up, and this place will become his home turf!"

It must be resolved quickly!

He roared and transformed into a bright red fire meteor, crashing wildly!

Zuo Chang looked at him, his heart at peace.

He had experienced the battle for the Grand Order and had also been defeated by the half-dragons, so he naturally knew a thing or two about them.

With 80% dragon blood in his body, Dragon's strength is undoubtedly formidable, but...

A thick tail, with prominent dragon scales.

The more proficient a half-dragon is in magic, the more similar they appear to humans.

Only fighters who diligently train their bodies and enhance the numerical advantages brought by their "race" are more inclined to fight dragons.

Dragon's dragonification features are too obvious; he is most likely a physical type.

If it's just about numbers, then Zuo Chang has something to say—

"Before entering, I deliberately leveled up to the seventh realm. With the blessing of the Heavenly God Emblem, I actually have the combat power of the eighth realm, and my stats are already a cut above all other participants."

"Plus the 40x stat boost from the decisive weapon..."

Even if you were a real dragon, you wouldn't necessarily be able to defeat me! Besides, you're only a half-dragon!

boom!

A thunderbolt struck, and Zuo Chang's body was surrounded by golden light. He had used his "Decisive Weapon" on himself, and its stats soared to the limit!

Chapter 197 Melville: This is not an area I should be involved in.

"Danger!"

During the charge, Dragon felt a sudden, inexplicable pang of fear.

At a certain moment, an extremely terrifying power suddenly erupted from Zuo Chang's body.

That feeling...

It was just like the feeling I had when I met the "Dragon Queen" before I appeared.

Absolutely powerful.

Absolutely domineering.

"If this continues, I might die."

Without any rhyme or reason, such thoughts popped into Dragon's mind.

The arrow is on the string and must be fired.

Dragon charged at full speed, but stopping now would only hurt him. Zuo Chang had already launched a counterattack, and that human was full of fighting spirit, wanting to fight him head-on.

We cannot back down.

But the danger he had clearly sensed could not be ignored, and Dragon was willing to trust his "intuition".

and so--

"True Dragon Form"

The fiery meteor that sprinted across flat ground underwent a change.

An indescribable power erupted, expanding, expanding, expanding, and during the charge, Dragon revealed his true form, transforming into a bright red dragon with a wingspan of thirty meters!

he……

No.

It roared at Zuo Chang, spewing out pillars of fire as high as mountains and as deep as the tide. Wherever the flames passed, the grass and trees withered, and even the earth turned into a glassy color.

The pillar of fire was probably over thirty meters in diameter, truly like a wall of fire, descending head-on upon Zuo Chang!

Melville was dumbfounded.

The howling wind, whipped up by the flames, was about to lift her skirt, but she paid no heed.

Looking at the raging flames, she wondered, "This level of attack... is it really something a seventh-realm adventurer could pull off?"

Hello there.

Yes.

Once Dragon transformed into a true dragon, he could no longer be viewed by human standards.

With a single breath, it inflicted damage that even a tenth-realm human might not be able to achieve. What happened?

This is what a dragon is like.

"Zuo Chang...could he be dead?"

Melville looked at the relentless, burning breath with some concern.

At that very moment, a figure burst through the flames, covered in soot, and rushed in front of Dragon—

Zuo Chang!

With the boost of forty times the attribute, Zuo Chang withstood the fire damage with his bare flesh and blood.

He braved the intense heat, running a hundred meters through the flames, and successfully closed in.

Human emotions were revealed in Dragon's crimson dragon eyes.

That was shocking!

It couldn't understand why its fiery breath hadn't harmed Zuo Chang. He should have been reduced to ashes by now, not even bones left!

The Moon Crown Sword shimmered with light.

Zuo Chang swung his sword, and a crescent-shaped sword aura swept out, easily severing half of Dragon's body.

"Ow!!"

Amidst a deafening, horrific roar, blood rained down, crushing the withered grass.

A dragon claw and a dragon wing spun away from Dragon's body and landed one after the other.

The "numerical value" that dragons are so proud of is utterly worthless in a head-on collision with Zuo Chang!

With his physical body bearing the dragon's breath, he cleaved the dragon's body with a single sword strike.

The crescent-shaped sword energy, after severing the dragon's claws and wings, still had lingering momentum.

It flew horizontally for hundreds of meters, carving deep furrows in the earth, before dissipating into particles against the backdrop of a volcanic eruption.

Melville was so astonished by the sight that he became almost indifferent.

Are these two fighting in front of her really adventurers of the seventh realm, just like her?

It feels like...

She doesn't deserve to be here. Even ten of her combined wouldn't be as strong as that "Dragon".

As for comparing him to Zuo Chang—

No comparison, no comparison.

Even taking one more look would be considered an honor.

The battle is not over yet.

Dragon lost a claw and a wing, and was in excruciating pain! Its instinct was to return to the 'volcano' and immerse itself in the lava.

As the master of this territory, it has certain privileges.

As long as it is immersed in volcanic lava, any injury it suffers can be restored, even a disability.

but--

After Zuo Chang swung his sword, it keenly realized that the "dangerous" aura had disappeared.

"So that's it! It's an enhancement spell! This human just cast a powerful enhancement spell on himself, which is why he has the strength to fight me!"

opportunity.

In dire straits, Dragon calmly observed and thought things through, and found a glimmer of hope.

What needs to be done now is not healing.

Instead, they gathered their last strength and took advantage of Zuo Chang's "skill gap" to kill him!

"This may be the only chance."

With a roar, Dragon advanced instead of retreating, his remaining dragon claws gleaming with a fierce light as he swung down!

Zuo Chang was somewhat surprised by its actions.
