Survival in an apartment, starting with a stroke of luck on a plane

The sword energy struck Archimonde's skeletal body, bursting with dazzling light, but leaving only a shallow scorch mark.

His diamond-level defense was indeed beyond his capabilities.

Archimonde seemed enraged, and his massive bone claws slammed down towards Lin Yu's head with astonishing speed.

Lin Yu quickly dodged.

boom!

The ground where they were standing was blasted into a bottomless crater.

Unable to fight head-on, Lin Yu had to go all out. Without hesitation, he instantly absorbed two dragon essences and activated [Dragon Transformation].

At the same time, he also fully activated the [Molten Flame Demon Body].

Boom! Roar—!

The monstrous dragon reappeared, and this time, with the blessing of the Molten Flame Demon Body, its body surface seemed to have lava flowing, and its aura was even more violent and terrifying.

While it still can't compare to true diamond-level quality, it's very close.

"Insects! Futile struggle!" Archimonde roared, pointing his scepter at the dragon, and a huge red light burst forth.

The Finger of Death

The dragon neither dodged nor evaded; it opened its mouth, and its Shadow Breath collided with the Death Finger, unleashing a devastating energy shock that wiped out a large number of undead in the surrounding area.

The next moment, the two behemoths collided violently!

The Skeleton King was even stronger. Every swing of its bone claws or the scepter that struck caused the dragon's body to tremble violently, its scales to shatter, and its dark red flesh and lava-like energy to scatter.

However, the Wraith Dragon is more agile, and the powerful physique and resistance granted by its [Molten Flame Demon Body] allow it to withstand many attacks.

Dragon claws tore through the air, scattering large chunks of bone, while the dragon's tail lashed out like a warhammer, its shadowy breath surging forth as it fiercely clashed with the Skeleton King's bone claws and scepter.

Each collision caused the earth to shake violently, and the energy surged outwards, tearing apart any approaching undead.

Lin Yu attacked frantically while continuously absorbing dragon essence to sustain his energy and repair his injuries.

Archimonde's skeletal body was also torn into large pieces, and his dark red soul fire fluctuated violently.

This is a brutal war of attrition.

The undead army below was still frantically attacking the vine defense line. The flower fairy had given it her all, and the vines kept breaking and regenerating.

It's only thanks to Archimonde choosing this place as the battlefield that the aftershocks of their battle killed a massive number of low-level undead; otherwise, the Flower Fairy probably wouldn't have been able to withstand it.

On the other side, Golden Feather finally broke through the bone cage and joined the battle, but its damage to Archimonde was extremely limited.

They could only rely on their own speed and Lin Yu's cover to harass the enemy.

Time passed second by second, and Lin Yu had only two Dragon Essence pills left in his hand.

The dragon's body was also covered with cracks and signs of corrosion, and its movements were noticeably slow.

Archimonde's arm was ripped off, and there was a huge hole in his chest. His soul fire had dimmed considerably, but he remained ferocious, and his attacks became increasingly frenzied.

"No! We're doomed if this continues!" Lin Yu thought anxiously. His dragon form was about to reach its limit, and his magical power was once again on the verge of exhaustion.

As Archimonde gathered powerful death energy once again, preparing to deliver a fatal blow, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Leverage resources!

This is undoubtedly a crazy idea. The dragon form itself is filled with the resentment and destructive will of the evil dragon, which is completely opposite to and even conflict with the divine power attribute of the True Monarch.

If not controlled properly, it could harm oneself before harming the enemy, potentially leading to the collapse of the dragon's body.

"Fine, let's take a gamble!"

Lin Yu didn't think for long, and the current situation didn't allow him to think about it.

Soon, he focused his mind, forcibly suppressing the instinctive rejection and violence of his dragon body, and through the connection with the apartment, he sent a prayer to the statue of the True Lord.

In an instant, a golden beam of light shot into the sky from the direction of the apartment.

An invisible force poured into the enormous body of the strange dragon!

"roar--!!!"

Lin Yu let out a dragon roar that was completely different from before, a roar that was both painful and transformative.

The divine power clashed violently with the filthy energy of the dragon itself. The writhing tumors and twisted scales on the dragon's body peeled off and melted away in the golden light, as if they were the first snow under the blazing sun.

The intense pain nearly made Lin Yu lose consciousness, but he clung to a sliver of clarity.

Under the golden light, the twisted and ferocious form of the strange dragon began to undergo a dramatic transformation.

The black scales shed their filth and transformed into a dazzling and noble gold, with iridescent rays flowing around their edges. Dragon horns grew out, and the dark red flames in their eyes extinguished, replaced by pupils as white as molten gold.

The aura that was originally filled with resentment and death was replaced by the pure and majestic dragon's might.

In the blink of an eye, the originally sinister and terrifying dragon was transformed into a majestic true dragon under the cleansing and reshaping power of the True Lord.

Although it was slightly smaller than the Ghost Dragon, the pressure it exuded had already firmly entered the threshold of the Diamond level, and it exerted absolute suppression on the surrounding death energy.

The soul fire in Archimonde's eye sockets flickered violently; he actually felt a suppression emanating from the person in front of him.

"Evil spirits, vanquished!"

The true dragon speaks human language with a voice as loud as a bell. It no longer needs to breathe, as its body itself is the embodiment of ultimate yang and strength.

The dragon transformed into a golden lightning bolt, instantly piercing through the layers of bone shields and death barriers hastily erected by Archimonde, its claws slicing through like blades.

A dazzling golden line flashed by.

Archimonde's massive body suddenly froze. It looked down in disbelief at the beating dark heart in its chest—and the rapidly expanding golden crack on its heart.

"No...it...is...possible..." The mental fluctuations came to an abrupt halt.

The next moment, golden light burst forth from the crack, completely purifying and annihilating Archimonde's diamond-grade skeletal body from the inside out.

Together with the Soul Scepter, it transformed into the finest specks of light and vanished into the world.

[Final Boss Defeated!]

[Successfully held on for the tenth week!]

With the death of the Skeleton King, the remaining undead army seemed to have lost its source of power, and they scattered and turned to ashes.

The dragon form dissipated, and Lin Yu landed back on the ground, kneeling on one knee, panting heavily. His face was as pale as paper, and he was in excruciating pain in many parts of his body. His magical power was almost exhausted.

But his eyes were full of excitement.

Winning this battle was secondary; the main thing was that he found an even stronger skill combination.

On the other side, with Archimonde's death, the weaker undead were no longer a threat, and with Lin Yu's assistance, the massive number of undead were quickly eliminated.

……

About half an hour later, the cleaning was completed.

The flower fairy's vines slowly retreated into the ground, and her true form also appeared extremely exhausted.

Jin Ling landed beside him and nuzzled him affectionately; she also had many scars on her body.
