The thick dark clouds seemed to divide the sky and the earth into two layers.
Under the clouds, the sky was dark and the rain was pouring. There were muddy mountains, villages reduced to ruins, soldiers rescuing people in the rain, and a neon-lit city in the distance.
On the cloud,
The cold moonlight falls on the dark clouds. In the quiet sky, there is only one bright moon shining on everything. It looks like a fairyland or another world beyond the mundane world.
The joys and sorrows of the mortal world seem to have nothing to do with this place.
But at this moment, in this world, there is still a man and a dragon confronting each other.
Roar, roar, roar!!
The roaring dragon roar echoed under the sky, and a dazzling beam of flame pierced through the air and shot straight towards Lin Qiye's position!
Lin Qiye's figure flashed, and the next moment he appeared directly above the earth dragon, his black military coat rustling. Holding a straight knife in his hand, he slashed towards the earth dragon's back!
"After leaving the earth, your strength is indeed greatly reduced." Lin Qiye said lightly.
The reason why he wanted to move the battlefield to the air, in addition to preventing the aftermath of their battle from involving Instructor Hong and others, there was another important reason... It was too strong on the ground.
Although Lin Qiye now carries the soul of the Goddess of Night, it does not mean that he possesses god-level strength. Due to the limitations of his own realm, the power of Night he can exert is less than one percent.
Although he did not know what realm he was in specifically now, Lin Qiye estimated that he should be at the peak of the "Sea" realm, or just entering the "Boundless" realm. In a sense, he was now at the same realm as the Flame Vein Earth Dragon.
Of course, Lin Qiye, who carries the soul of God, is now much stronger than the so-called "same realm".
But this does not mean that he can underestimate his opponent. The best tactic is to let the earth dragon leave the ground and come to his home court.
In the dark night, Lin Qiye's figure appeared on the back of the earth dragon like a ghost, and the straight knife in his hand stabbed into the earth dragon's back fiercely!
A touch of darkness suddenly appeared, centered on the wound, and spread rapidly to the surroundings!
The severe pain made the Flame Vein Earth Dragon roar, and its dragon tail whistled and slapped its back, but Lin Qiye's figure had disappeared without a trace... At the same time, it could clearly feel that there was an icy force in its body that was constantly eroding its body!
[Darkest Erosion]!
Under the encroachment of this darkness, one-third of the flame patterns on its body quickly dimmed.
In the sky, Lin Qiye looked down at the painful Flame Vein Earth Dragon indifferently, opened his left hand, and murmured slowly:
"[Night Lord Judgment]."
The black military coat seemed to be connected with the dark sky. The next moment, dozens of huge black spikes pierced down from the sky and pierced through the body of the earth dragon like lightning!
Dragon wings, dragon body, dragon claws, dragon spine... Under these black thorns of the sky, the body of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon was completely locked in the air, like a sinner nailed to the cross, waiting for the judgment of the Night Lord.
The Flame Vein Earth Dragon struggled and twisted its body, blood oozing out of the wound, but its body remained motionless.
Lin Qiye walked in the darkness, slowly approached the top of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon, and spoke again:
"[A Thousand Falling Stars]."
Above the night sky, the twinkling stars suddenly shone brightly, and thousands of star marks streaked across the dark sky, creating dazzling flames in the atmosphere, and fell to the earth with long and shining tails of fire!
It's like a shocking meteor shower!
Of course, these were just phantoms of stars, not real stars, but Lin Qiye could clearly feel that this ability originally summoned real stars...
In other words, if it was Nyx in its heyday, it could really pull meteorites in the universe to fall to the ground!
That is the real power of God.
Even if it is just an illusory falling star, it is more than enough to deal with the Flame Vein Earth Dragon.
The burning meteorite roll fell on the body of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon with terrifying force. The shock wave exploded in a form visible to the naked eye. Shattered star fragments and howling flames shattered in the air, and the flames completely enveloped the body of the earth dragon!
The air is trembling!
Lin Qiye stood quietly in the air, looking down at the scene, with supreme majesty emerging in his eyes.
When the flames and stars faded, the giant dark thorn that had originally imprisoned the earth dragon's body had disappeared, and the Flame Vein Earth Dragon... had already been reduced to a bloody mess.
Its broken wings could no longer support it to fly in the air. Its shattered body continued to ooze blood and flesh. Its dim eyes stared at Lin Qiye, as if it had seen something extremely terrifying. Its eyes were filled with fear!
The dying Flame Vein Earth Dragon fell helplessly through the lightning-filled clouds, returned to the human world in the heavy rain, and fell to the ground.
The rain streaked across its scarred body, and its gaze fell on the gradually approaching earth, with a glimmer of hope reappearing in its eyes...
As long as it can return to the earth, it can survive!
As soon as this thought flashed through its mind, a dazzling white knife light fell from the clouds, like a straight bolt of lightning, piercing through its head in an instant!
At the same time, thunder rumbled in the dark clouds in the distance.
This thundering sword slashed down from the sky to the ground, as if it was really a punishment from heaven, cutting off a dragon's head with one blow!
The vitality of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon was completely cut off.
boom!!
The huge remains of the Flame Dragon fell between the mountains, making a dull noise and billowing smoke and dust...
On the top of a mountain not far away, Lin Qiye slowly stood up, his eyes calmly falling on the corpse of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon. Drops of blood dripped along the red-stained blade of the straight knife.
A familiar warmth flowed from his palm into his whole body; it was the soul of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon.
"The corpse of an earth dragon at the peak of the 'Sea' realm is a top-quality summoning material and cannot be wasted..." Lin Qiye murmured, and he ran towards the dragon corpse in a flash.
At this moment, he suddenly groaned, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
A strong soul left his body, and unprecedented weakness and fatigue surged into his soul. He felt as if he had been drained out, empty and void.
The figure of the soul Nix gradually faded into the air, and her voice sounded softly in Lin Qiye's ears.
"Your body and soul have reached their limits. If you continue, you will suffer irreparable damage. You need to rest for a while. You must not carry my soul for half a year..."
After Nyx's figure disappeared, Lin Qiye's body completely relaxed. He tried to stand up, but he no longer had the strength to do so.
His hair returned to its original size, his skin color darkened, and his entire appearance completely changed back to the previous Lin Qiye. The changes in him were caused by carrying Nyx's soul, and when Nyx left, he would naturally return to his original state.
The sound of rain around him became smaller and smaller, and the scene in front of him gradually dimmed. Lin Qiye only felt that his consciousness was rapidly leaving his body and he was about to fall into a deep sleep.
"My dragon corpse... I've lost a lot this time."
Lin Qiye murmured a few words at last, then completely lost consciousness and lay weakly among the mountains and forests.
