High Above

"Sure enough, you came in person."

Ian was alone on the top of the mountain. He looked down at the chief of the mountain people in front of him: "Kode Jiamu, the first hero among the mountain people to advance to the third level - you are here to witness what I have done." Did the dragon god’s messenger awaken the miracle of the steel dragon’s nest, or did he want to betray the faith of the mountain people and prevent me from leading the mountain people back to glory?”

"I never believe in the messengers of the Dragon God. If the mountain people want to return to glory, they can only scrape the rotten flesh and poisonous blood from the wounds, not the empty words of a white people like you."

Facing the words of the young man in front of him, the brown-haired and brown-bearded chief responded in a deep voice. Although he didn't know why there was only Ian, a younger generation who had just advanced to the second level, here, he inexplicably felt it from the other person. A sense of danger kept his hunter instinct on alert.

It was just like... when I went hunting for the first time before I became an Ascended One, and saw traces of a sharp-clawed tiger on the roadside... a warning of danger leaping from the depths of my soul.

But how is that possible? The other party is obviously only at the second level, so how can he have the ability to make him feel scared and nervous?

Therefore, Coder looked around at the rugged rocks and said solemnly: "I know your deeds, and you never fight an uncertain battle - where are the other people in ambush, let them come out!"

"A good response, but the truth is not what you think - I only do practical things and work to uplift the mountain people, while you are killing your countrymen."

Ian shook his head slightly: "As for the ambush... you are at the third level, can't you tell?"

"There are only you and me here. The only two people who can determine the future fate of the mountain people."

"On this holy land."

Standing on the steel dragon's nest, Coder was stunned.

There is no ambush here, no other traps or preparations?

yes. He indeed didn't sense anything, so Coder was confused... He would rather believe that Ian had a psychic jewelry that could conceal his aura to ambush him, rather than believe that Ian actually came here alone.

With the strength of the second level... alone, against him?

There is no armor, no extra weapons, only two swords and an alchemy belt at the waist.

What on earth does he... want to do? ! Is he crazy? !

- But leave him alone.

Cord's expression calmed down: "You will regret it."

Thousands of meters high, a cold and chilling atmosphere spread amid the icy rain and thunder.

The brown-haired mountain man was tall. He carried two hunting knives on his waist and a long bow on his back. Because of his confidence and to speed up the journey, Cord did not bring any other additional weapons and equipment, nor did he wear the clothes that he never left behind in the past. armor.

Because no armor can match the power of the Heartlight Shield, and no weapon or equipment can beat the Ascendant's Heartlight Body.

At this moment, Ian felt that the mountain people in front of him seemed to suddenly become taller, the wind and rain became sparse, the cold wind became warmer, and an unusual vitality began to spread, like a giant tree taking root in front of his eyes. Shelter from wind and rain and draw strength from the earth.

"This is the power of the complete third level?"

On the top of the mountain, Ian's expression moved slightly.

So far, he has seen many third-level and even fourth-level beings, but except for the two phantoms of Void Breed and Viscount Avak, and those who rely on external objects to possess third-level power, Apart from existence, he has never faced off against any other true third energy level.

And now, he saw that there was an illusory shadow of a giant tree appearing on Coder's body. The illusory spiritual root system of this giant tree had taken root in the peak of the Steel Dragon's Nest, and the illusory leaves were swaying and noisy in the wind and rain, and they were unexpectedly strong. The habitat turns the originally cold and humid environment into humid and warm environment.

But this warmth does not mean comfort. Instead, it gives people's soul a feeling of being burned and eroded by the too dazzling sun.

Inherited by Jiamubu’s bloodline, the third energy level of the giant spiritual tree, the ‘soul-purifying tree’!

This is the power of the third energy level. You can use your own mind and heart-light body to forcefully change the source matter and spiritual energy field of the surrounding environment. You can turn ice caves into flame purgatory, and replace scorching deserts with humid swamps.

And the soul-purifying tree can naturally turn the world around you into a soul-devouring hunting ground!

Bang!

There was an explosion of air, and with the surging air flow, Cord was already charging!

Since there are no traps, no helpers, and it's just Ian, what does he have to fear? The physical body covered by the Heart Light Body crashed through the sound barrier, leaving behind a string of sonic boom clouds. Rocks shattered and rolled down wherever it passed, and rainwater splashed and evaporated.

A ball of white mist was like a giant hammer, plowing a deep mark on the ground and hitting Ian!

There is only one person, but the momentum is like a thousand troops!

But Ian just stared at the scene.

In his eyes, silver-blue brilliance flashed, and Kode clearly understood the changes brought about by using his own mind light body or mobilizing the source of matter in his body - the tree of pure soul absorbs all external sources of matter, and even the source of life. The ability to use quality for one's own use is exactly its essence of 'purifying the soul'.

When Cord came fifty meters in front of him, Ian raised his hand.

The hilt of the Chongyuan Iron Sword at his waist flew up, arced in mid-air and fell into his hand. In the flash of light, the long fine gold blade emerged out of thin air.

But such a trivial movement was like a start-up signal - an extremely powerful source of life burst out from the seemingly slender body and spread outward.

Solid like a mountain, surging like a tsunami, in an instant, a piece of rock-cast armor covered Ian's body. The dense scales were intertwined, spread all over the body, and criss-crossed. They were solid together, and they didn't look like ancient ones at all. Knight armor, but some kind of sci-fi armor that was ahead of its time. No matter the texture or structure, it felt indestructible.

Although the default armor structure of the Rockcast Knight itself is not weak in defense, it is still far inferior to the super-era weapons that Ian specially condensed.

boom!

With one step, a wave of air surged up. Holding his sword, Ian stepped into the rain and fog caused by Cord!

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud thunder!

Boom! ! !

The tops of the mountains surrounding the Steel Dragon's Nest were trembling, and substantial shock waves mixed with air waves visible to the naked eye spread toward the surroundings, instantly lifting the surrounding rain curtains and fog.

At this moment, Cord exploded with all his strength, but his feet never left the ground when walking. Instead, he forcibly broke through the earth and rocks and plowed through them. This seemed like a waste of energy, but it was actually the best way for his bloodline to inherit and absorb the natural source. After all, for sublimators, there is no difference between rocky ground and tofu. Since it can accumulate more source of essence, what's wrong with swimming among mud and rocks?

Facing Ian who was not dodging and charging straight at him, he suddenly drew his knife and slashed out. For a moment, the light of the knife rushed towards him like water. The gray-silver blade cut through the air and even pulled out a streak. Visible to the naked eye, the vacuum air blade screams in the atmosphere.

Ian raised his sword and slashed with the opponent. At the first moment, both sides let out a light sigh, obviously surprised by the opponent's strength. In the next moment, Cord pulled out the second hunting knife with his left hand and pointed it towards Ian's Cutting off the neck, the young man also drew out the steel-patterned sword from his waist and stabbed directly towards Cord's heart without any blocking.

Then, the swords and blades of both sides struck and stabbed their targets, but only a string of sparks burst out.

On Ian's neck, silver-scaled armor emerged. This armor with an inexplicable sense of technology was far stronger than Cod imagined. On Cod's chest, under the seemingly simple mountain man's coat, there was actually a layer of armor. The sublimated inner armor glows with a metallic cold light, woven from mithril, light and strong.

Both sides saw the opponent's trump card of not dodging, but they did not stop at all. Instead, they rushed forward with all their strength - both of them were swordsmen who used double-edged swords. For a moment, the swords and swords and shadows intertwined, like a violent storm. , turning both sides into a sword hell filled with cold light, even the dust particles were shattered, and continuous sparks shot out from both sides.

But this time, it was still hard to tell the winner.

The source of the armor around Ian's body was already crumbling in an instant, with countless cracks and holes, and there were deep wounds visible on the bones on Cord's face and neck, which were not protected by the inner armor, and blood was flowing.

But the situation is that Coder has a slight advantage.

This mountain chieftain is of plant blood. He has strong vitality and strong regeneration ability. Some minor wounds that are not fatal can be regenerated with a deep breath, but Ian's silver scale armor is his core. As long as the sublimation ability is broken, it cannot be reconstituted again in a short period of time.

Knowing this, how could Cord give Ian a chance to breathe? He stepped forward one after another, causing the ground to tremble, and pressed towards Ian as fast as possible - although he couldn't figure out where Ian, an ice fairy, got the earth element ability, but the fight started, and how could it be possible? Do you have so much to think about when you come?

Without any stagnation, Cord attacked fiercely with the two knives in his hands. The double blades swung at supersonic speed even brought out arcs of flowing fire swords in the rain, seeming to burn away all Ian's dodge opportunities.

His martial arts are extremely sophisticated and are the true essence of the fighting skills among the mountain people. They are called "Red Beak" and are modeled after the fourth level monster "Blazing Phoenix". They are passed down orally from generation to generation, using their own bodies as inheritance. The tool was not taken away by the empire, but there were only a few people who could master it in the past four hundred years. One of them surrendered to the empire and became a 'Red Sky Knight' with his own title.

This set of combat skills is suitable for blood inheritance of swords and other weapons with sharp edges or similar fighting organs. Just as birds and monsters can exert great power at the tip of the tip when pecking, bursting out multiple times of great lethality. In that way, Cord can regard his two swords as the beaks of birds and beasts, and burst out hundreds or thousands of ferocious attacks within a short distance!

Even Ian has great knight-level swordsmanship, but he was forced to retreat by Coder's set of fast attacks.

This was the first time in many years that Ian encountered an enemy who could compete with him in terms of skills. Instead, he smiled and the silver-blue light in his eyes flashed.

——You have gained a lot, which can be used next time!

Bang! Ian retreated suddenly. Since he couldn't get close to him, he would rather take the opponent's two blows than continue. The shaky silver-scaled armor around Ian was shattered after taking two blows from Cord, but just when Cord wanted to take advantage of it, he retreated suddenly. When Ian's defense failed and he slashed a few times in the air, rain condensed all over Ian's body, and an ice-blue solid ice armor appeared. Although the extremely sharp air blades struck by Cord hit it, Cracks were created, but for a while it didn't look like it could be broken.

Obviously, Cod didn't know how many layers of shields Ian could put on himself, and Ian immediately changed his sword before the ice shield was torn apart by Cod's sharp knife. He held the Chongyuan Iron Sword tightly in his left hand, and the ether crystal Gather endless strength.

Ke De, who was attacking, suddenly felt something in his heart. Without thinking, he leaned down and smashed the rock into pieces, sinking into the soil.

At this moment, a green-gold torrential wave shot out from Ian's sword. The 'Sword of Torrential Wave' really lived up to its name at this moment. A giant sword light tens of meters long broke through Ian's own sword. The ice shield swept away in a direction 180 degrees in front of him.

Cord had already hid in the stone layer, and the sword light naturally did not hit it. It passed diagonally far away and hit the foot of the mountain thousands of meters away. An explosion sounded like an alchemical heavy artillery bombardment, and a sword nearly a hundred meters long was heard. Traces appear on the earth.

"Are you at the second level?!"

Jumping out of the earth and rocks, the astonished Kord didn't even need to look. His scalp was numb when he heard the sound and the response of the source material. Ian, who had already distanced himself from him, didn't waste any words and directly launched another torrential wave. The sword swung, forcing Cord to move quickly to dodge.

If this continues, Ian will definitely be at a disadvantage. The source of energy that Ian needs to activate the Sword of the Flood is definitely much more than the running and dodging of Cod, who seems to be suppressed and beaten. However, the mountain chief saw Ian swing the Sword of the Flood five times in a row. After his expression remained unchanged and he didn't even take a breath, he immediately understood that the boy in front of him was definitely a monster among monsters.

Or even... simply some real dragon made a human shape for himself and traveled around the world?

——I said how can ordinary people be so good-looking! ! !

Of course, Ian didn't know all the strange thoughts that came out of the shock in Cord's heart. At this moment, he was using pure source matter to suppress people, while at the same time fine-tuning the structure of the source matter in his body on the spot.

[The defense of the silver scale armor still has weaknesses. The structure of the source material at joints such as the chest, knees and neck needs to be optimized. The computing unit assists in correction. The estimated time is 1:29]

[The Sword of Hong Tao consumes too much source material, reduces unnecessary aftermath, strengthens the top lethality of the sword energy, and calculates the unit to assist in correction. Estimated time spent, 5:45]

[The efficiency of the linkage between the ether crystal and the ancient dragon core can be improved. It cannot be fine-tuned during the battle. It is recorded in the ‘Amendment Record’ and waits for the data to be collected and adjusted after the battle is over]

Deep in the heart and soul, each computing unit, as well as Ian's optimized soul itself, are providing Ian with computing power far beyond that of an ordinary third-level ascendant. Although he looks like he is fighting, in fact, he is not fighting at all. Use Coder, the third-level sublimator, as your own verification object to correct your various combat and practice data!

After awakening the Heart Light Body, Ian, who already knows how powerful the third energy level is, knows very well that he will not be able to advance to the third energy level in a short time, and the enemies and forces he has to face are getting stronger and stronger. As long as he If you still want to seize the opportunity and grasp your destiny in your own hands, you must find another way to become stronger. This is also for the future transformation of the Immovable City and the advancement of the 'Lord of Stone' into a more perfect form. Prepare.

Optimizing the structure of the Rockcast Knight's 'Silver Scale Armor' is only the first step. In recent times, Ian has been relying on the computing unit in his soul to increase computing power and optimize the structure of the ancient dragon's heart core to compress and transport the source matter.

In Ian's view, just as all armors have their own alchemical furnace heart or etheric furnace heart, each sublime needs an ancient dragon core of its own to store and explode source matter, but it is not any Everyone can get the legacy of a powerful person from the same inheritance, and not everyone has a silver chip, so the requirements must be lowered.

For example, if you have an artificial soul and computing unit that can increase your computing power, you can use it to condense a second source seed in your body, and use powerful computing power to maintain it for a long time, storing source matter and even life energy that are not usually used. Blood.

This is a technique that can only be used by future sublimators with 'artificial souls' and 'computing units'. In other words, it is an exclusive secret technique that only Ian can use now - at low levels, this additional source seed can only be used as an additional energy storage, but if it reaches the second or third energy level, this continuously maintained source can compress and purify the source, and explode at critical moments.

The more tightly it is suppressed at ordinary times, the purer the source material will be, and the more terrifying it will be when it explodes - and this kind of power and sublimation structure, plus the method of condensing it, can be called the It is 'Ningdan'.

And named after the culture of Terra, it is the ‘Essence Furnace Heart’!

The quality of the source matter furnace core that each person can condense is different, the efficiency of compression and explosion is also different, and the level of purified source matter is also different. Ian, who has an "outer elixir" and "external furnace core" such as the ancient dragon heart core, is naturally To seize the opportunity, as long as the auxiliary structure is well constructed, he can exert his strength far beyond his level!

A power that allows him to confront the third-level sublimated person head-on without falling behind!

"This is real progress! It's not about researching one or two powerful bloodline forms, but finding a power model that everyone can learn and have... It's not about finding a powerful destination. ', but create a 'road' that everyone can walk on!"

"This is the path. It is based on artificial souls, computing units and internal compression energy furnaces, supplemented by virtual realm artificial intelligence and various other technologies. There is no need to hunt for magic beasts and magic potions. At least it can greatly reduce the demand for magic potions. path of!"

"Although it's just a foundation now, and only I can learn it and use it - eventually it will be popularized and become the standard for practice for all sublimators in the future!"

The spiritual light in Ian's eyes is getting brighter at this moment, and the guiding star is faintly emerging in front of his forehead, proving that this path will lead many people to the future in his heart.

This may also be a path - a path of cultivation that runs parallel to the arcane path!

If the arcane path represents various powerful 'skills and souls', then this path represents pure 'source and power'!

Inspired by the Extreme Realm and the Half-Magic Potion, Ian, who has experienced so many events and accumulated many technologies, finally began to use himself as the experimental subject step by step, using the silver chip as an aid, to implement those overly fantastic ideas. Technology.

Now is the time to use the power of Chief Cod to verify the capabilities of these technologies!

——Use your power to prove my unique knowledge!

"No, we can't fight like this! I originally wanted to rely on the power of the Soul-Purifying Wood to fight a war of attrition, but now it seems that I am the one being consumed!"

At this moment, Cord also noticed that Ian's source of energy seemed to be endless, and the cyan light erupting from the opponent's left hand did give him a taste of 'dragon blood'... If we talk about Ian's dragon-shaped organ, If it can provide him with extremely abundant source of essence, then if the fight continues like this, he will lose all opportunities and be crushed to death by the opponent's brute force!

He paused slightly, sheathed his swords, and then jumped up to avoid Ian's Hong Tao Sword, but the long bow behind him had been drawn!

An instant later, a meteor-like arrow buzzed across the sky and shot straight towards Ian!

Although this arrow is fast and heavy, if it hits a castle or a city wall, it will definitely penetrate it. The remaining force can also destroy those seemingly solid objects, but for Ian, this arrow The arrows are not even as good as any of the previous swords from Cod's personal knife fight.

As soon as his eyes were focused, an ice blade flew across the air, collided with the arrow, and deflected it a little - and this was enough for it to miss a thousand miles, shoot directly into the distant clouds behind the mountain top, and break a gap. Big hole.

But precisely because of this, the Hong Tao Sword in his hand stagnated slightly, giving Kod a chance to breathe.

And the next moment, just as Ian guessed, Cord used his true power.

The reason why Kede, who had been trying to absorb the natural source of energy before, jumped up uncharacteristically was just for the most complete explosion - accompanied by a roar of thousands of branches and leaves, the huge heart of the 'Soul-Purifying Wood' A body of light appeared behind Cord. The giant branches and leaves were flying, extremely bright, like flames. Each piece could burn the soul and purify the filth.

As a third-level demonic plant, the original body of the Pure Soul Wood can create a dead area with almost zero source matter centered on itself, and the soul is no exception. The structure will be disrupted and gradually turn into a demonic plant. Plant nutrients.

But if you are strong-willed and can withstand the power of the soul-purifying tree, then the sublime can also use it to refine the purity of your soul and optimize its structure. However, this plant will not actively attack anyone, nor will it suddenly strengthen your soul. The strength of the field is precisely because it can use its roots to absorb the surrounding source essence, creating a calm zone with almost no external interference, where people can focus on tempering their souls.

And its leaves are excellent auxiliary materials for psychic jewelry. After being ground into powder, they have a strong affinity for spiritual essence.

This is why it is called the Soul-Purifying Wood, not the Soul-Eating Wood.

But if someone controls this ability...

Behind Coder, the huge light body of the Pure Soul Wood is slowly rotating - the roots of the Pure Soul Wood that were supposed to be rooted in the earth and absorb the source of the essence for their own use are now reversed, upside down, and inserted straight into the steel dragon's nest. In the endless clouds and mist, absorb the endless natural source that is being gathered by the Steel Dragon's Nest.

But the tree crown, which was originally shining with dazzling pure light, is now constantly gathering and converging, condensing into a huge, radiating giant hand of the wood spirit!

Then, the giant wood spirit raised its hand and slashed down!

This condensation split seems simple, but it is actually a sublimation skill that cannot be more advanced. Ke De can reach the third energy level at a younger age than Elder Manya. In addition to the help of Feiyandi, it is also because of He is a true genius. This reversal of the light body absorbs the natural source of the surrounding space, and uses the skill of turning the wood into a hand, and even vaguely leads to the 'etheric true body'!

Think about it, the fourth-level powerhouses can shape their own mind-light body into what they think is perfect. Although this has the inherent knowledge and habits brought about by their bloodline true form, it also means that they can definitely shape their own bodies. The inner light body undergoes a certain degree of change, and dexterously utilizes their original abilities to exert extraordinary power.

If Cord can break through the fourth energy level, his etheric true body will probably be an extremely huge wooden giant, a natural titan that controls all the forces in the surrounding natural environment for his own use!

And at that time, how many hands he could condense, whether it was a hundred-armed giant or a thousand-armed... it was hard to say.

The huge hand of the wood spirit fell down with an astonishing force, and it also brought spiritual damage that was difficult to block with a shield. The dazzling spiritual light was the "soul-purifying light" of the pure-soul tree. It carried a terrifying The killing intent struck, and even the virtual realm trembled slightly due to the blow, producing feedback.

In Ian's perception, the hand of the wood spirit is not a chopping palm at all, but a terrifying sword light that is like substance and carries the meaning of pure extermination! It carried the force of the stormy wind and clouds at the top of the Steel Dragon's Nest Mountain, and headed towards him like a vast sea of ​​clouds, attacking his body and soul at the same time!

Ian knew very well that he could not stop this sword - this sword was the full strength of a true third-level powerhouse. It combined the heart light body and sublimation skills to absorb the natural source of the surrounding world. It was like the vast sky and sea, and as powerful as the sky. Collapse, with one strike of the sword, even a hill will be broken into pieces, and all souls will be purified into ashes.

Even if he has the core of the ancient dragon and the ether crystal, which can last longer than the third level of Cod, he still cannot surpass his opponent in explosive power in a short period of time.

So, you have to retreat!

The light of the sword was approaching, and Ian retreated quickly!

The huge palm knife transformed from the Soul Purifying Tree, just the aftermath of the sword light, deprived the surrounding source matter completely. If you are a weak person, facing this attack that can even peel away the free source matter, you will definitely be unable to defend yourself. Defense, even the condensed shield will be directly pulled away, and if it is a strong man of the same level, if he loses the opportunity in the battle with Kod, and the opponent uses this stunt first, he will inevitably mobilize less natural sources, and thus Forced into a confrontation at a disadvantage.

Unless, the person fighting against Cod has more source matter reserves than all the surrounding natural source matter!

This is an attack that can only be withstood with ‘hard power’!

And does Ian have such reserves? Of course he doesn't. Even if the ether crystal can gather natural source matter all the time, and the ancient dragon heart core can continuously store the pure source matter he has refined using source seeds and clear source crystals, it is far from being the same as the plant-based heart light body. Comparing the power of the entire nature in an instant.

If he was really the third level, he might be able to overcome it with hard power, but unfortunately, Ian is still a little behind.

But he can condense.

At this moment, Ian is frantically using the ancient dragon core to compress and condense his own essence.

If the enemy's offensive is like the vast sea, then condense yourself into an immortal reef. Even if the huge waves surge into the sky, you can still remain still!

If the enemy's offensive is like a natural disaster caused by clouds and rain, then build yourself into an immovable fortified city. Even if the world is overturned, you can still protect one side!

In the short period of time when Ian retreated rapidly, the source material in his body had been compressed and polished to an extreme. If the source material used by Ian before was crystal clear quartz, there were still some impurities, but now it is like It is a pure and transparent artificial diamond. This is the result that can be obtained by combining the clear source crystal with the core of the ancient dragon and the ether crystal.

"What?"

At this moment, Coder's heart suddenly shook. This was the first time today that he used his Heart Light Body with all his strength and slashed out this soul-stealing knife that took over the power of nature. Even the natural sources around Ian's body, he used the first The powerful field manipulation ability of the third level was taken away by force, leaving no chance for his enemies to resist.

But just now, he suddenly discovered that the natural source of energy around Ian seemed to be fixed in place by something extremely solid and heavy. It was something that could not be shaken no matter how much water and wind blew or washed away.

Then, this extremely solid 'thing' no longer retreated, but instead headed in his direction, colliding with him!

For a moment, Coder sensed that an alien appeared in his sword force. This alien was not affected by his soul-purifying power, and was difficult to be destroyed by his source of essence. It was gradually emerging from the mighty sword light. Swirling inwards and outwards, trying to break through the momentum!

That extremely solid thing was spinning and charging all the way, squeezing and pushing away everything in front of it. Whether it was the natural source or his source, whether it was the mind light body or the sublimation technique, everything was broken.

Until it tears and shatters everything in front of it, completely penetrates it!

Cord's face was gloomy, and the giant wood spirit hand behind him was still chopping. Even the top of the mountain of the Steel Dragon's Nest gradually collapsed and shattered in front of his power, leaving only a long knife mark, but Ian held a heavy hand. However, Yuan Tiejian's figure quickly retreated and then charged forward. The fairy wings behind him suddenly accelerated, crushing his sword along the way, and stabbed towards him like a cannonball!

——How on earth is this accomplished? Why can a second-level water fairy control such high-quality earth element? Why can he use the second-level sefirah to condense a sequoia comparable to the mass of my original ether?

At this moment, Cord also vaguely saw the unclear star crown above Ian's head, and he had another unbelievable doubt in his heart: "Why, does he also have a light body?"

There are so many questions, so many doubts, but now there is only fighting.

Since the mighty sword power didn't work, Cord used a more direct attack: he once again took out the hunting knife from his waist, waved his hand and slashed at Ian. This knife did not show any hesitation, even if Ian broke him. A unique move, but he still believes in his own power.

The third level requires such ‘faith’ in oneself!

You will never be discouraged, you will never compromise, you will accomplish the goals you set, you will not delay or make excuses. Whether only such people can become the third level or vice versa, the explanation is actually the same. .

"You can stop me, and I can stop you!"

boom! Cord's strength was still better than Ian's. He slashed out with his sword, and immediately hit the soul-stealing sword. Ian, whose momentum had weakened, was sent flying backwards. The aftermath of the blow fell on the cliff, causing the cliff to make a loud noise. Suddenly collapsed.

But Ian just turned around and removed most of the force. Astonishingly, not a single hair was lost, and he continued to attack.

This is a hard battle. If both sides of the battle continue to fight like this, there will be no change even until tomorrow morning. Cord is a true third level, with a solid foundation and profound skills. Although compared to the Empire and others, The third-level knights of the big forces may lag behind in equipment and skills, but in head-on combat, they are definitely not inferior to anyone.

Even Ian can learn a lot from him. There are too many fighting methods and data that can be verified. There is no way to do anything about the other party. It is not a good thing for him, but it is by no means a bad thing.

However, the battle will eventually end - especially a battle where both sides have already figured out how to end it before the battle.

On the other side of the distant sky, a loud roar of a dragon suddenly sounded.

Cord's expression perked up, and he laughed loudly: "The Steel Winged Dragon King is here! Ian, you are indeed very strong, even incredibly strong. How can you actually have such power at the second level? I almost doubt myself."

"But this isn't some heroic showdown, a fair and just fight - this is war!"

But Ian's expression remained unchanged, and instead he agreed: "You're right, this is war."

"So, I called someone too. Oh no, Dragon."

There was another dragon roar, and this time, Ke De's expression changed again. As a mountain man, of course he could recognize that it was the dragon roar of the real dragon 'King of the Mountain' who took over the responsibility of Dragon Island to supervise Qiang Ganglong's heritage.

On the other side of the distant sky, a subtle crackling sound sounded. It was a very distant but extremely grand sound of thunder, weaving into a brilliant network of light.

Then, a terrifying shock wave visible to the naked eye erupted in the atmosphere, erupting into a brilliant aurora hanging on the entire sky.

The battle between the fourth-level true dragons and the sub-dragons started again. It was obvious that they could not support each other and the people they wanted to support.

But Ian smiled instead.

"You lose, Cord."

He shook his head, frowned, clenched the two knives in his hands, and instinctively felt that something was wrong. He said: "It's not because you are not good at studying, nor because you haven't trained hard - you are very strong, it is better to say that you are me The most solid opponent I have ever seen, and the one who can best help me demonstrate my skills.”

"But, you will lose."

At this moment, accompanied by the red-silver light, a dragon shadow slightly inferior to the steel-winged dragon, controlling the metal wings, was flying from the distance.

Ian raised the steel-patterned sword in his hand and pointed at the mountain chief whose expression changed dramatically in front of him: "Just because you have fewer people."

"And on my side, Long Duo."
