166: Chapter 166 Thunder Accompanying Yue's Slaying

A sixty-meter-long health bar hung across the sky.

The Safety Officer had intended to step in, but seeing this scene, he was left completely speechless, his lips trembling as he stood there lost in thought.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon was even more completely dumbfounded.

The Divine General Incarnation of Yue Yun pulled at the three-pronged halberd; his heavy body built up momentum through a short run, and he actually leaped five zhang high, swinging the three-pronged halberd with the weight of Mount Tai as it smashed into the lake.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon suddenly snapped back to its senses.

Sensing the overwhelming power of the Divine General descending from the sky, it instinctively felt a shiver and did not meet the attack head-on, twisting its body to dive into the lake water.

Splash!

The Divine General smashed heavily into the lake, causing the blue-green water to explode upward. The spray filled the sky before falling back down like raindrops, drenching the Terracotta Warrior as if to wash away ancient dust.

The Divine General stood in the lake holding the three-pronged halberd; the water submerged the waist and abdomen of his towering frame, quickly soaking his entire body.

Yue Yun did not relax in the slightest despite the Azure Water Flood Dragon's retreat.

Quite the opposite.

Although its figure could not be seen, every corner of the lake was filled with danger, as if he had fallen into an abyss.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon did not engage in a direct brawl, instead merging itself into the lake to hide completely; its presence was perfectly integrated with the water, making it difficult to detect.

Talent: Abyssal Lurking Stance!

When the Azure Water Flood Dragon dives into a sufficiently large body of water, it enters a state of complete concealment that is extremely hard to detect. All its attributes receive a significant boost, and its first attack upon leaving the water or launching a surprise assault carries a "Water Bind" effect, restricting the enemy's mobility.

With the support of the lake and its talent...

The Azure Water Flood Dragon displayed perfect control over the aquatic domain, transforming into a flexible caster capable of hunting multiple targets.

Yue Yun's perception was not wrong; the Divine General, who had rashly stepped into the water, had already become its target and would face fatal strikes from every unexpected corner of the lake.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Ripples spread across the lake as high-speed rotating Water Bullets were fired at the Divine General one after another from all directions.

The Divine General calmly gripped the three-pronged halberd, twisting his waist and turning to unleash a heavy, powerful horizontal sweep.

Boundless rock element surged, like a Divine Dragon Tail Swipe tearing through the incoming Water Bullets from all sides with tyrannical force.

The shattered spray was blocked by the boundless rock element before it could touch the Divine General, or was evaporated by the powerful Aura surrounding his body, leaving no chance for the Water Bind effect to attach.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon's form flickered indistinctly beneath the surface.

Failing to land a hit, it retreated quickly, its body gliding as it once again entered a state of complete concealment, slipping away from Yue Yun's perception.

Though the Azure Water Flood Dragon's presence vanished in a flash, Yue Yun did not doubt his senses; he raised the three-pronged halberd and swung it fiercely toward where the presence had disappeared, slashing out with a sharp edge.

The lake surface in front of him was struck down by an inch.

The three-pronged halberd, surging with Evil Qi, cleaved downward; its sharp edge pressed forward and tore through the water, but the Azure Water Flood Dragon was nowhere to be seen.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon had used its superior movement speed to leave the spot. Seeing Yue Yun's pinpoint-accurate attack, it felt relieved yet filled with mockery for the Divine General's clumsiness.

The Divine General gripped the three-pronged halberd to build momentum, his towering figure running through the water like a war chariot, creating a continuous trail of waves.

Seeing the Divine General rampaging through the water and remembering his heavy Earth-Shattering Slash, the Azure Water Flood Dragon decisively approached to release its Strangulation skill.

Bolstered by the lake water, the Azure Water Flood Dragon transformed into a thick Water Python made of blue-green lake water, coiling around the Divine General to crush him.

The Divine General glanced toward Xu Qingfang on the shore.

Xu Qingfang gave a knowing smile, understanding the signal perfectly.

The Thunderwing Griffin, which had been circling the sky looking for an opportunity, withdrew the lightning from its wings. The space within one zhang of its body became an imbalanced high-pressure zone, with azure arcs of electricity constantly ionizing and crackling.

The commotion in the sky drew everyone's attention.

The Safety Officer recognized that the Thunderwing Griffin was preparing the Spear of the Thunder God, a high-damage lightning-element skill, and was greatly surprised.

To gain the recognition of a Thunderwing Griffin at this age, to have all its indicators reach perfect cultivation, and to have it learn and master the Spear of the Thunder God—a skill known for both its difficulty and damage—was impressive.

Xu Qingfang was indeed a Genius; as long as his academic scores weren't too bad, aiming for a top-tier Beast Taming University would be no problem.

However, Xu Qingfang's next move puzzled the Safety Officer.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon was completely hidden within the water; if the Spear of the Thunder God could not lock onto its presence, it would be unable to exert its maximum power.

While the Azure Water Flood Dragon would indeed leave its hidden state when attacking, the Divine General was currently ensnared by the Strangulation skill; attacking now would mean hitting the Divine General as well.

"Defeating the target through brute force without considering one's own Contract Power consumption or the status of teammates is unadvisable!"

The Safety Officer shook his head inwardly.

He believed it would be more appropriate to first use lightning to apply pressure and force the Azure Water Flood Dragon out of the water before attacking.

Feeling the intimidation of the heavenly thunder, the Azure Water Flood Dragon naturally had the same thought as the Safety Officer.

It made no effort to hide its mockery of the Divine General.

It quickly detached from the thick Water Python and returned to the lake to re-enter its hidden state, causing the Spear of the Thunder God to lose its target.

Suddenly, the Divine General moved.

He appeared to be restricted, but in reality, the golden light covering his body was the radiance of Super Armor, making him completely immune to the Water Bind effect.

Yue Yun locked onto the Azure Water Flood Dragon's position and swung the three-pronged halberd to unleash an Earth-Shattering Slash, smashing through the thick Water Python created by the Strangulation skill with tyrannical force as he struck toward the dragon.

"How is this possible?"

The Safety Officer's eyes widened.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon was once again dumbfounded; it never expected that the Divine General had not been controlled at all, but had instead used himself as bait to lure it out.

Splash!

The water surface exploded into a massive spray as the body of water was forcibly torn apart, revealing the figure of the hidden Azure Water Flood Dragon.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon was caught in the aftershocks of the Earth-Shattering Slash; its azure-green scales, fine as satin, shattered, and blossoms of crimson blood erupted.

The mist surrounding the Azure Water Flood Dragon surged, thickening into a barrier that stood between the two to separate them.

Its long, powerful tail lashed, taking the opportunity to pull away and retreat into the distance, not daring to approach the Divine General again.

Rumble!

A deafening clap of thunder exploded.

Resplendent heavenly might was released at this moment as brilliant azure lightning instantly illuminated the entire lake, like a Heavenly Punishment descending.

Floating before the Thunderwing Griffin was a thunder spear forged from lightning, as thick as an arm and highly compressed; it trembled slightly, emitting a surging heavenly might like the Wrath of the Thunder God.

Skill: Spear of the Thunder God!

The rumbling thunder echoed through the clouds as the Spear of the Thunder God pierced the sky, reaching its target in an instant and pinning itself into the dragon's body with supreme power.

Countless arcs of lightning branched out along the way, and as they exploded, they tore open a vacuum path that still resonated with heavenly might.

The Spear of the Thunder God used its violent lightning and terrifying heavenly might to suppress the Azure Water Flood Dragon, pinning it firmly to the spot.

"Thunder-Accompanied Yue Slash!"

Yue Yun roared in his heart.

Before the second stage of the Spear of the Thunder God could be released, the Divine General descended from the sky with the three-pronged halberd raised high. A ferocious Earth-Shattering Slash caused the azure-green scales to shatter inch by inch, tearing open the flesh and sending crimson blood splattering everywhere.

The Azure Water Flood Dragon twisted its body and roared in agony.

The Divine General suppressed it firmly, thrusting the Evil Qi-surging three-pronged halberd forward as an indomitable Aura pierced through its body.

Breaking Thousand Armies!

Boundless rock element pressed down; the Azure Water Flood Dragon felt as if it were bearing the heavy weight of Mount Tai, unable to break free from the three-pronged halberd's restraint.
