Chapter 519: Chapter 282: Ascending to the Extreme

"Azure Sky Stream—Fourth Form: Forgetfulness Instant Void."

The golden fist passed straight through Lu Cang, whose body flickered and vanished for an instant.

The Fourth Form previously had a fixed cooldown time.

Otherwise, he would be lost in the Void.

But in this battle, Lu Cang had also made an improvement to this Combat Skill.

In reality, he didn’t need to Escape into Nonexistence for very long to dodge an attack. He just needed to do it for a crucial instant.

An attack launched with what could almost be called its full strength missed completely!

Instead, it was Lu Cang who had closed the distance!

"Dragon!"

"Do you still think your physical body is stronger than mine!"

The Golden Dragon had few scales left on its body. Though it was still regenerating, it was not Lu Cang. The speed of its Rebirth was nowhere near comparable to Lu Cang’s.

To an ordinary person, the Golden Dragon’s speed of Rebirth might have seemed fast enough.

But in Lu Cang’s eyes, this speed of Rebirth—which took nearly half a minute to regrow all its scales—was as slow as it could possibly be.

BAM!

Lu Cang’s knee strike slammed into its abdomen!

Immediately after, hundreds of fist-shaped craters appeared on the Golden Dragon’s abdomen!

"Human!"

"Dragon!"

One man, one dragon, fist meeting flesh!

"Human!"

"Dragon!"

The two were still fighting, but only the Golden Dragon was taking damage.

minutes!

After ten minutes, Lu Cang would only take one ten-billionth of the damage.

This meant his opponent would need to use an attack ten billion times stronger just to land a normal blow on Lu Cang!

At this moment, no matter how the Golden Dragon surged with power, no matter how it erupted.

It could no longer break through Lu Cang’s defense.

No matter how much it surged, it couldn’t unleash an attack ten billion times stronger...

Besides, even without factoring in the damage reduction, Lu Cang’s current physical strength was already over ten thousand times greater than before.

Perhaps even hundreds of thousands of times greater.

"Do you yield?!"

Finally, the Golden Dragon’s ferocity diminished, its attacks growing weaker. Lu Cang could clearly feel its power waning.

It tried to surge with power, doing everything it could to kill him.

But it was too late.

If it wanted to truly threaten him, it would have had to go all-out from the very beginning of the fight—like throwing down your ultimate trump card at the start of a card game.

Once his combat Time had stacked up.

Even if it were ten times stronger, it couldn’t do anything to him anymore.

’A tenfold damage reduction plus a thousandfold physical enhancement is truly an overwhelming combination.’

But in truth, even if it had gone all-out from the start, Lu Cang estimated he could have stalled for time.

’Although at my initial strength, I definitely couldn’t have beaten it in a head-on fight.’

’But when it came to stalling for time and just surviving...’

’Lu Cang considered his survival skills to be top-notch, no matter the situation.’

The eleventh minute began!

The Golden Dragon no longer had the strength to fight back. Lu Cang broke its wings. Its punches collided with Lu Cang’s tiny fists, only for its own bones and tendons to be shattered by Lu Cang’s immense strength!

’The life in this world is so strange. In this past time-space, these beings don’t have real souls, but their existence is so perfectly lifelike!’

The Golden Dragon’s Life Force was still vigorous, its Physique still robust.

It could still hold on for a while.

Lu Cang wasn’t in a hurry. He just continued to study its attacks, developing new counters.

’I’ll only get stronger, while it will only get weaker through attrition!’

"Do you yield?!"

BAM!

A knee strike to the jaw shattered the Giant Dragon’s teeth!

By now, Lu Cang completely ignored all of its attacks. Even when its fists smashed into his body, he didn’t even bother to defend himself, remaining completely unfazed!

’After eleven minutes of fighting, I’m only taking one-hundred-billionth of the damage. What’s the point of defending?’

The Golden Dragon’s eyes were glowing with golden Light, dazed and confused. It had been beaten so badly by Lu Cang that it couldn’t tell which way was up.

"Do you yield?!"

The Golden Dragon still held on stubbornly, but it was met with a merciless barrage of Lu Cang’s fists and feet!

’It’s a shame. Without a real soul, I can’t turn it into an Undead.’

’The Demons I killed on the way outside the city didn’t become Undead either. It proves that this time-space isn’t real...’

’If I could turn it into an Undead, I’d have another powerful combatant for the future.’

’If I had attacked its Date of Death, it would have died countless times over by now. But I’m all fired up, and I plan to beat it into submission, fair and square!’

After its explosive Power Burst, the opponent’s Defense Power had clearly dropped significantly. Its sturdy scales had all fallen off and no longer served a defensive purpose.

It hadn’t recovered yet, so before Lu Cang, it could only be thrashed.

Every one of Lu Cang’s attacks inflicted extremely severe damage.

"Still not yielding?!"

KRANG!

Another fierce upward kick struck its chin, creating a heavy shockwave of air. The kick shattered its lower jaw, sending bone and blood flying!

The Golden Dragon’s head snapped back, its eyes rolling up to show gold!

It actually lost consciousness for an instant. But after that momentary lapse, what followed was Lu Cang’s relentless barrage of attacks!

BAM-BAM-BAM-BAM-BAM-BAM—

Its entire body, from top to bottom, was under assault. Not a single spot was spared.

At this point, even if it gave up on attacking and focused solely on defense... it was impossible to defend.

It had expended too much energy.

’Should I go all-out, burn through all my power to kill this human?’

The moment this thought emerged, a violent panic rose in the Golden Dragon’s heart...

Dragons are not only proud creatures, but also selfish and fearful of death.

It didn’t want to die.

’Besides, even if I go all-out, can I really kill this monstrous human?’

’I can clearly feel that my attacks on him...’

’...have absolutely no effect anymore. The Lu Cang of now doesn’t even need to defend... Even if I burn everything, give it my all, can I really finish him?’

BAM!

A huge hole was torn in its wing, its entire left claw was completely broken, the five talons of its right claw were shattered, and its mouth couldn’t close, its entire lower jaw hanging loose, smashed apart by this human.

Its abdomen was covered in deep craters.

’If this goes on...’

’I’ll die...’

At that moment, a thought suddenly struck the Golden Dragon!

’That’s it, I’ll threaten him with the castle!’

’This human doesn’t want that member of the Blood Race to be killed... If I threaten him, will he stop?’

However, in that same instant, Lu Cang appeared before its very eye.

Before the Golden Dragon’s enormous body, Lu Cang, even standing before its pupil, was as tiny as a speck of dust. It was like a single human standing on Mount Tai on Earth.

So tiny, so insignificant.

But...

...the Golden Dragon felt an unparalleled sense of pressure.

"Don’t forget our agreement. I’m only using my physical body to fight you... but that doesn’t mean my physical body is all I have."

It was as if the other party had already anticipated the thoughts in its Mind!

And at the same time, an extremely terrifying amount of Magic Power erupted from Lu Cang’s body!

RUMBLE!

The heavens and earth changed color—

Magic Power began to surge!

"The strength of my body is merely a feeble combat power that I usually have no use for..."

"If you want to try facing me at my Peak, feel free to try your little scheme. I’d also like to see who’s faster—you at killing him, or me at killing you?"

Lu Cang’s figure was tiny, yet he exuded a monstrous pressure that completely belied his small frame.

During the fight, Lu Cang had also been deliberately leading the battle to a more distant location; he hadn’t been moving around randomly.

Now, they were far from that continent, and it would be impossible to rush back in a short time.

If the Golden Dragon really tried to go back...

...given its current injuries, Lu Cang was quite confident that, by going all-out, he could kill it before it ever made it back!
