"Nilasek," Gabriel had swiftly arrived a hundred yards above Ye Han, glaring down at the mound of flesh behind him, his aura intensifying dramatically.
Seeing Gabriel halt at a distance, Ye Han grew anxious. The killing formation he had set up covered only fifty yards. This formation, known as the "Seven Extremes Sword Formation," was the result of a month's work by Ye Han, utilizing a thousand ninth-grade demonic cores and one sacred-grade demonic core, along with seven swords. It was the largest killing formation he could control with his current strength.
"Surprised, aren't you?" Ye Han stood unflinchingly, and then transformed, revealing his zombie form to Gabriel.
"You carry the scent of Nilasek," Gabriel exclaimed in surprise, watching Ye Han's transformation and slow ascent. A foreboding feeling crept into Gabriel's soul.
"His blood awakened me, so of course I have his scent," Ye Han, now transformed, stood with an imposing grey aura, significantly diminishing Gabriel's momentum. However, Ye Han keenly felt his speed being restricted under Gabriel's pressuring aura.
Gabriel quickly deduced some facts, expanding his psychic power to cover a five-mile radius. "Greedy humans. Feel the wrath of the Dragon Race!" Confirming no other humans were lurking within the range, Gabriel roared in anger.
Gabriel's fury knew no bounds at the thought of his race's dignity being challenged and a dragon being slain. "Swoosh" – dragon flames shot out, piercing through Ye Han's body, but Gabriel didn't cease his attack. The enormous dragon head glanced around.
"There's a big lizard up there," Ye Han, standing atop Gabriel's head, swung his sword, emanating a five-yard long sword light, fiercely slashing down at Gabriel.
"Boom!"
Gabriel had just looked up to see Ye Han and before he could react, the fierce sword Qi struck his back.
"Roar" – Gabriel bellowed as his massive tail, creating a sharp breaking sound, lashed directly at Ye Han.
"Boom" – Ye Han underestimated Gabriel's attack speed and defense. He was harshly struck by the sudden tail swipe.
"Spurt" – His body, like a broken puppet, spewed dark red blood.
"Bang" – A pit two yards wide and half a yard deep formed instantly beneath Ye Han. "I truly wonder how you managed to kill Nilasek."
Before Ye Han could rise from the ground, Gabriel's angry voice echoed as his gigantic body loomed large in Ye Han's eyes.
"Bang" – A massive dragon claw smashed down on Ye Han's location, causing the earth to churn instantly. Everything happened so fast that Ye Han didn't even have a chance to react.
"Cough cough" – Ye Han stood ten yards behind Gabriel, coughing violently, blood pouring from his mouth. His body shed scales, and his wings hung limply, but Ye Han was undeterred, even pleased.
Ye Han's grey aura surged again, and his large purple hands rapidly formed seals in front of his chest. "Activate the Seven Extremes Sword Formation."
As Ye Han completed his hand seal, a huge, complex pattern suddenly appeared on the ground, emitting a sinister red glow. Gabriel immediately felt the space around him rapidly changing, with fierce sword Qi swiftly spreading across a fifty-yard radius. To his greater astonishment, seven bizarre swords, each radiating intense killing intent and sharp sword Qi, floated in the air.
The "Seven Extremes Sword Formation" materializes seven energy sword bodies based on the soul power and strength of the person who sets it up, drawing from the natural energy of the space. The stronger the soul of the person and the more energy provided, the more powerful the attack of the seven energy sword bodies.
The "Seven Extremes Sword Formation," set up at the cost of a thousand ninth-grade demonic cores and a sacred-grade demonic core, manifested seven sword bodies whose emanating power deeply unsettled Gabriel.
"What have you done?" Gabriel roared, sensing fear from this un-magical formation.
"Slaying dragons," Ye Han said coldly, forming another hand seal. The seven energy sword bodies, with their fierce sword Qi, attacked Gabriel from all directions.
"Roar!" Gabriel roared, his body glowing brightly in red, "You're not qualified to kill me."
The giant dragon claw smashed down on one of the attacking energy swords, while the tail and wings swept around fiercely.
"Boom, boom!" The collision of these forces caused an enormous explosion, shaking the entire space. Ye Han, caught in the brutal energy impact, spat out another mouthful of blood.
"Hmph, if you were at the sacred level, perhaps this could kill me, but you're dreaming now," Gabriel's angry voice echoed from the center of the explosion. A more intense aura burst forth from his location.
"Let's see if you survive first," Ye Han struggled to contain the surging energy in his body. His eyes transformed, and two white fangs finally exposed the complete aspect of his zombie form.
"Die," sensing Ye Han's change, Gabriel, fearing a stronger move from this seemingly insignificant human, attacked. The twenty-yard distance was nothing for the massive dragon.
The giant claw, fast as lightning, struck Ye Han before he could react.
"Crack" – Ye Han's bones broke, and the "Seven Extremes Sword Formation" shattered instantly under the impact of Gabriel's attack and Ye Han being flung away. The strong wind lifted a large swath of earth.
Gabriel, without a moment's hesitation, quickly spewed scorching dragon flames at Ye Han. Just then, his expression drastically changed.
"Boom" – the deadly dragon flame, aimed at Ye Han, exploded upon being blocked. Immediately, five figures attacked Gabriel.
"I will survive," Ye Han said coldly after spitting out blood, crashing onto the ground with immense force.
The five figures showed no mercy, attacking with full force, causing continuous explosions that expanded the area of destruction. Meanwhile, Ye Han, buried underground, endured the excruciating pain from his soul and struggled to stand up. Large patches of scales fell off his body, his chest was deeply caved in, and his right arm completely broken.
Ye Han, watching the fierce battle between the five people and the dragon, suddenly changed his expression and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Behind him, ten rotting zombie beasts appeared instantly.
In the battle, although Gabriel seemed to have the upper hand against the five attackers, the addition of the ten zombie beasts overwhelmed him. Soon, under the powerful onslaught of fifteen sacred-level beings, he was utterly defeated.
Ye Han's wounds had mostly healed in an extremely short time, and some of his strength had returned. "You're still not qualified to kill me."
"Roar" – Just as the sky had calmed, four angry dragon roars echoed again. Four colossal creatures swiftly appeared above the land.
"Humans."
Sensing the residual aura of the great battle and seeing the scattered red dragon scales on the ground, the four dragons became furiously enraged, their roars thunderous. They quickly left the area.
After over a month of calm, the Dragon Race finally launched a fierce attack on humans again. A massive number of beasts unexpectantly assaulted the city of Alencerman with unprecedented ferocity.
"Mages, release wide-range magic. Swordsmen, attack with full force to stop the beasts' approach," the thirteen powerful beings, standing in the air, watched the frenzied attacking beasts with extremely grim expressions.
In an instant, various wide-range magical attacks were hurled towards the oncoming horde of beasts. Countless swordsmen released their fighting spirit, charging towards the advancing beasts.
"Roar" – Following a dragon's roar, four huge dark shadows rose from the forest, charging towards Alencerman with immense momentum.
The thirteen sacred-level beings above Alencerman simultaneously launched their attacks. "Greedy humans, face the Dragon Race's retribution!"
The four dragons and thirteen human powerhouses clashed instantly. The dragons didn't hesitate and attacked directly. Scorching dragon flames and powerful dragon magic were unleashed without restraint.
