Mr. Dragon Knight, the dragon girls are chasing you!

In just a few breaths, a jet-black dragon with a wingspan of over twenty meters reappeared in the night sky!

Her dragon wings spread wide, blotting out the sky, and her scales gleamed with a cold, deep metallic luster under the moonlight.

Her molten gold vertical pupils burned with fierce fighting spirit, fixed on the giant bear below.

Although it is still far from the colossal, sky-covering dragon body of her prime, this appearance is enough to make any creature tremble from the depths of its soul.

A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the Earth-Splitting Bear King, but it was quickly replaced by ferocity.

"bluff!"

It suddenly stood up on its hind legs and slammed its two huge paws hard onto the ground!

boom!!

The overwhelming rock spikes fell like meteorites, carrying a terrifying force capable of crushing city walls, crashing down towards the direction where Elvia and Luo Ye were!

"Hold on tight!"

Without turning back, Eluvia spread her wings wide and, at the critical moment, suddenly soared into the air. Her dragon body, like a black lightning bolt, sliced ​​through the gaps in the rain of rock spikes, tearing a path to survival.

Large shards of rock crashed down where the two had been standing, creating numerous deep craters in the ground, sending debris flying and dust billowing into the sky.

However, she was still recovering from serious injuries, and her flight speed was slowed down by half a beat.

A rock spike grazed the edge of the dragon's wing, its sharp edge slicing through several dragon scales, and dark golden dragon blood splattered in the air.

Eluvia let out a muffled groan, her dragon body trembling slightly for a moment, but she quickly regained her balance and turned around without showing any weakness, her dark dragon breath beginning to gather wildly!

The next second—

"Breath of Destruction!"

A jet-black, extremely concentrated dragon breath erupted from her mouth!

This dragon breath was much thicker and deeper in color than the one used in the battle against the Shadow Panther in the forest. Wherever it passed, the air twisted and groaned, as if even space itself was being torn apart!

A hint of seriousness flashed in the eyes of the Earth-Splitting Bear King, but it did not flinch; instead—

It took a deep breath, crossed its arms to protect its chest, and the earth element around it gathered wildly. The rock armor on its back layered and spread to its arms, instantly forming a rock shield several meters thick.

Then, it charged straight into that destructive dragon breath!

boom!!!

The dragon's breath collided violently with the rock armor, unleashing a blinding light and a deafening roar!

The energy shockwave spread out in a ring, destroying all the trees within hundreds of meters and carving deep furrows into the ground!

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

The figure of the Earth-Splitting Bear King reappeared.

Its rock armor was mostly shattered, and its exposed fur had many charred burns, with blood even seeping out.

but--

It did not fall.

It withstood Eluvia's dragon breath.

"Hehehe..." The Earth-Splitting Bear King let out a low laugh, its dark red pupils filled with ferocity.

"Your dragon breath is much weaker than it was back then. It seems you're quite badly injured, Eluvia. Really—" It bent its thick hind legs, slowly gathering its strength,

"Pathetically weak!"

The next second, its massive body shot out at a speed completely disproportionate to its size, crashing into Eluvia in mid-air like a flying mountain!

Eluvia rapidly gained altitude, barely avoiding the fatal blow, her voice remaining calm: "You can withstand one, but can you withstand ten?"

"You don't have that chance anymore."

The Earth-Splitting Bear King suddenly raised its head and let out a deafening roar!

"roar--!!!"

The roar pierced the clouds and echoed endlessly throughout the entire mountain range.

A new warning suddenly popped up on the system panel:

[The Earth-Splitting Bear King activates its domain skill: Ancient Beast King's Command]

[Skill Effect: Uses the power of a King-level magical beast to forcibly command all flying magical beasts within a radius of 100 miles that are lower in level than the user. Duration: 30 minutes.]

[Warning: A large number of air units are rapidly converging on this area.]

In the sky, the starlight and moonlight were obscured by rapidly approaching dark shadows.

Luo Ye looked up, her pupils contracting sharply.

It is a horde of flying magical beasts.

Countless flying magical beasts are taking flight from every corner of the mountains, converging on this valley.

There was the Iron-Feathered Eagle King, with a wingspan exceeding ten meters, its entire body covered in dark feathers with a metallic sheen. There were flocks of Gargoyle Bats, their withered wing membranes gleaming with a cold, grayish-white light under the moonlight.

There was a two-headed, bipedal dragon whose mouth shimmered with interwoven red and blue elemental flames...

Hundreds, no, thousands! They were everywhere!

Like puppets controlled by an invisible hand, their scarlet eyes filled with bloodthirsty madness, they surrounded Eluvia's airspace layer upon layer, completely sealing off her movement space from all directions!

"You—" Elva's pupils suddenly contracted.

The Earth-Splitting Bear King stood on the ground, looking up at the Black Dragon King who was trapped in the sky and unable to move forward or backward, and slowly opened his huge mouth full of messy giant teeth.

"Centuries have passed, and you've grown weaker, Eluvia. So weak that you no longer arouse my interest whatsoever. Where has your former power gone, when you trampled on my head and made me kneel and beg for mercy?"

Its voice was full of mockery and cruelty: "You think I'd be stupid enough to fight you one-on-one? I've tamed half of the flying magical beasts in this mountain range."

"You can kill a hundred, a thousand, what about five thousand? Ten thousand?"

"I have waited hundreds of years for this moment when you are at your weakest, most vulnerable, and most vulnerable—hand over your dragon origins, and I will bite you gently."

It spread its arms wide, as if embracing the night sky: "Elvia, you have no chance of escape today!"

Eluvia hovered in mid-air, her chest heaving violently, the dragon flames around her flickering.

The forced unleashing of dragon breath and high-speed maneuvering placed a tremendous burden on the already weakened essence.

Luo Ye's heart sank to the bottom as he looked at Eluvia.

Her dragon breath had indeed become stronger, but her physical strength was still severely depleted.

That dragon breath attack just now probably consumed most of the energy she had painstakingly accumulated.

If all those flying magical beasts really pounced...

"Your Majesty!" Luo Ye shouted, "Retreat! Don't fight!"

Eluvia gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with resentment.

She knew Luo Ye was right.

In her current state, it's impossible for her to fight against a lord-level BOSS and tens of thousands of flying magical beasts at the same time.

but--

She was unwilling to slink away like that!

In that instant of hesitation, the flying magical beasts surged up like a tidal wave!

Leading the charge were hundreds of pterosaurs, their massive jaws filled with sharp teeth slamming into Eluvia!
