77: Chapter 77 Forbidden Killing Move

"Thunder Fall!"

Lightning flashed suddenly, and Li Zhengyang transformed into a bolt of lightning, slamming straight into the Nether Dragon Venerable.

Boom!

A deafening sonic boom exploded over the ruins, and the shockwave ground the rubble within a hundred-meter radius into powder.

"Crack!"

Accompanied by a crisp shattering sound.

Those dark dragon scales, capable of withstanding heavy laser cannons, were forcibly gouged open by the absolute armor-piercing power of the abyssal meteor dragon spear.

Dragon blood gushed out!

"Roar!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable felt the pain and let out an angry roar.

Its massive body lashed out in mid-air, and the airwave forced Li Zhengyang back dozens of meters.

Li Zhengyang performed a somersault in the air, his feet slamming heavily into the ground as he barely steadied his figure.

He raised his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth; in his eyes, there was no fear, only a burning, almost frenzied excitement.

The Nether Dragon Venerable looked down at its pierced scales, feeling the burning sensation at the wound.

Dragon Soul Bone Erosion was triggered, causing the wound to heal extremely slowly.

"Ant!"

Killing intent erupted in the eyes of the Nether Dragon Venerable as it stared fixedly at Li Zhengyang.

It was a dignified Martial Venerable Rank magical beast, yet it had been injured by a human of the Martial Emperor Rank!

This was simply an utter humiliation!

"Good, very good!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable laughed in reverse: "I originally intended to crush you bugs directly, but since you are rushing to reincarnate, I will use you to warm up before killing that old thing, Lei Qianjue!"

In mid-air, upon seeing this, a flash of malice crossed Xue You's eyes, and the blood-colored aura on his body suddenly exploded, preparing to coordinate a pincer attack with the Dragon Venerable.

"Stand down!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable turned its head abruptly and shouted angrily to stop Xue You, "This bug is mine! No one is allowed to interfere!"

Its arrogant self-esteem would not allow it to need help when facing a Martial Emperor.

If word got out, what face would it, the Nether Dragon Venerable, have to stand in the Northern Wilderness?

Xue You's movements stiffened, the corner of his eye twitched, and he could only snort coldly before retreating hundreds of meters to watch from the sidelines.

Li Zhengyang gripped his dragon spear tightly, looked at the behemoth circling in mid-air, and sneered.

"Warm up?"

He stomped his foot, and the ground exploded.

"To kill you, there is no need for Venerable Lei to make a move!"

Before the words had faded, Li Zhengyang had already soared into the air again.

In the Berserk state, strength doubled, pain sensation decreased, plus the 100% enhancement from the Ancient Dragon Power.

Every breath he took now was pushing the limits of this Indestructible Golden Body!

"You're courting death!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable was furious and swiped fiercely at the incoming Li Zhengyang.

This claw, if it were an ordinary 5th Grade Martial Emperor, would likely not even be able to withstand the airflow brought by the dragon claw.

But Li Zhengyang was no ordinary Martial Emperor.

"Silent Kill!"

Qi and blood reversed; the lightning on the spear tip suddenly disappeared, replaced by black lines of killing intent.

Bang!

The spear tip and the dragon claw collided violently in mid-air.

There was no stalemate.

Veins bulged on Li Zhengyang's arms, his muscles making tearing sounds under the violent force, but the crimson-gold flow of the Indestructible Golden Body locked his physical body tightly, allowing him to forcibly withstand this blow!

"Break for me!"

Li Zhengyang roared, and the Twist Technique detonated at the spear tip!

Crack, crack, crack!

Several scales on the Nether Dragon Venerable's claw were shattered again, and the massive impact caused its entire body to retreat several steps.

"This is impossible!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable was greatly shocked.

Is this really a Martial Emperor? This brute strength can actually contend head-on with a Martial Venerable Rank?

Li Zhengyang didn't give it time to think; utilizing the recoil force, he turned in the air, kicked hard with both legs, and instantly circled around to the giant dragon's side neck.

The dragon spear followed like a shadow, sweeping out horizontally!

Clang!

The dragon spear slammed heavily onto the dragon's neck; although it failed to break through the deep flesh, it still smashed the Nether Dragon Venerable into letting out a muffled groan.

"Get lost!"

The dragon's tail, like a steel whip, swept over with a sonic boom.

Li Zhengyang had nowhere to dodge and met it with a clenched fist.

Boom!

Man and dragon clashed head-on once more.

Li Zhengyang was sent flying backward by this terrifying force, crashing through several walls in succession before stopping in a pile of ruins.

"Cough... cough..."

He spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva.

But, with the Berserk talent and the Indestructible Golden Body protecting him, this injury was not yet fatal.

"Come again!"

Li Zhengyang shot out from the ruins, moving even faster than before.

The Nether Dragon Venerable was truly enraged.

The ant it had thought it could crush with a single claw swipe actually dared to take the initiative to attack time and time again.

It dove down, opened its bloody maw, and spewed out a breath of dragon fire.

Wherever the dragon breath passed, not a blade of grass survived.

Li Zhengyang did not dodge or avoid; the dragon spear rotated rapidly in front of him, the spear shadows transforming into a net of lightning.

"Thunder Strikes in Eight Directions!"

Lightning and dragon breath collided in mid-air, erupting with intense light.

Taking advantage of the light's cover, Li Zhengyang pierced directly through the aftermath of the dragon breath and closed in on the dragon's body again.

The abyssal meteor dragon spear was drawn quickly, raining down wildly upon the Nether Dragon Venerable.

Puchi!

Another dragon scale was flicked away!

"Damn it!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable twisted frantically in mid-air, engaging in the most primitive close-quarters combat with Li Zhengyang.

Boom, boom, boom!

Every collision stirred up a ring of airwaves in mid-air.

Assistant Chen Feng and the few remaining Pojun Division warriors on the ground were dumbfounded.

What were they seeing?

A Martial Emperor was actually trading blows back and forth in mid-air with the Martial Venerable Rank Nether Dragon Venerable!

The speed of the man and the dragon was too fast to see clearly; in the sky, only a crimson-gold afterimage and a black shadow were left colliding constantly.

Li Zhengyang's combat suit was already shredded, and his skin was covered in claw marks and scorch marks of all sizes.

But he did not stop.

Every time the abyssal meteor dragon spear thrust out, it was bound to leave a bloody wound on the Dragon Venerable.

"What the hell... kind of monster is this?"

In the distance, the mockery on Xue You's face had long since vanished without a trace; now, there was only deep dread.

He asked himself, if it were he facing Li Zhengyang in that state, he would probably already be stabbed into a hornet's nest by that long spear by now.

In the sky, the Nether Dragon Venerable became more and more alarmed as the fight went on.

This kid seemed tireless; with every collision, his strength not only did not diminish, but became increasingly violent!

If this continued, would he, a dignified Martial Venerable, actually be dragged to death by a Martial Emperor?

No! Absolutely impossible!

"Ant! You have completely angered me!"

The Nether Dragon Venerable let out an earth-shattering roar.

It flapped its wings violently, forcibly pushing Li Zhengyang back, and shot straight into the clouds to create distance.

Li Zhengyang hovered in mid-air, panting heavily.

The time for Berserk was almost up; he had to finish this quickly.

He gripped the spear shaft, preparing to pursue, but felt his breathing becoming difficult.

The sky darkened.

The original sky was now completely covered by a layer of black clouds.

The Nether Dragon Venerable coiled in the center of the black clouds, its eyes revealing coldness.

It was no longer fighting hand-to-hand.

The dragon scales on its body began to stand up one by one, and between each scale, nether lightning surged.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was crazily gathering toward the Dragon Venerable's mouth, forming a black hole.

Upon seeing this, Xue You's expression changed drastically, and he retreated several kilometers backward.

"Old Black has gone crazy... to actually use that move!"

Assistant Chen Feng lay in a pool of blood, closing his eyes in despair.

That was a forbidden kill move that only the Martial Venerable Rank possessed!
