While Xue Jing was running at high speed towards the tree dragon, he took out a silver-white sharp claw from his arms, held it in his palm with his backhand, revealing the tip.
“Click—”
After dodging another dragon thunder, Xue Jing took a deep breath and gathered his strength.
Spiral indentations appear at the base of the thigh, extending to the soles of the feet and converging at the Yongquan point.
"Bang!!"
With the force of the tornado and thunder, a deep pit burst out on the ground under Xue Jing's feet, and a circular white air wave exploded in front of him. The already extremely fast speed exploded again and rushed towards the tree dragon's belly.
When it was about to touch the tree dragon's belly, Xue Jing swung the 'Snake Killer' in his hand backhand.
The silver-white claws touched the dragon scales as rough as tree bark.
Just like a hot knife cutting a piece of butter, there was no obstruction at all, and a huge wound was instantly cut on the tree dragon's belly.
Xue Jing's eyes widened slightly.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see the details.
It wasn't the sharpness of the claws that cut the dragon's scales.
In fact, the tip of the claw did not touch the dragon scales at all.
But when it was about to touch the dragon scales, the tree dragon's flesh tore itself apart on its own initiative, trying to "avoid" the snake-killing vanguard as much as possible!
The tree dragon was completely frightened.
An instinctive fear that it had never experienced since its birth, as if it had encountered a natural enemy, swept over its body.
Even its biological father, the Dragon God, had never given it this feeling.
Trembling, panic, and even despair.
Without any hesitation, it immediately used all its strength to activate the biological force field and escape from here.
But it was too late.
Xue Jing, who was carrying the Snake Killing Spear, did not encounter any hindrance. Any part of the tree dragon's body would automatically tear itself apart when it was about to touch the Snake Killing Spear.
His entire body penetrated the tree dragon's body without any hindrance.
Black flames burned in his pupils. The pitch-black body of the tree dragon did not hinder his vision. Although everything in his field of vision turned black and white, he could still see it clearly.
He looked up and saw a ball of flesh about one meter in diameter, beating like a heart.
There were crackling flashes of lightning on its surface.
Xue Jing immediately understood that this was the core organ of the tree dragon.
He immediately stepped on the 'ground', touched the soft stomach wall, bounced out, and leaped towards the core meat ball of the tree dragon.
"Squeak—"
Without any surprise, the snake-killing spearhead stabbed into it.
The silver-white claws shone brightly, and the meat ball began to swell wildly as if it were being inflated.
“Ouch!”
The tree dragon let out a scream of fear and froze in mid-air.
After a few seconds, it crashed to the ground.
…

The huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang, and the whole valley shook. A circle of dust spread out from the place where the tree dragon fell, stretching hundreds of meters away.
The belly of the tree dragon that fell to the ground began to swell slowly, getting bigger and bigger like an inflated balloon. The dragon scales that were as rough as tree bark were stretched open, and cracks appeared everywhere, revealing the taut and thin skin under the scales from the cracks.
"boom!"
With a loud thunder, the tree dragon's belly suddenly exploded, and a large amount of golden lightning burst out from the gap and scattered in all directions.
The land, trees, mountain walls within a radius of hundreds of meters...all places touched by the scattered thunder were shattered and turned into a charred black color. Only one or two plants did not shatter after being hit. Instead, they were filled with lightning ripples and their bodies gradually changed into a golden color, turning into dragon thunder plants.
From the huge hole in the tree dragon's belly, a figure covered in black flames and golden lightning slowly walked out.
Xue Jing moved forward slowly, taking one step at a time, using shadow flames to dissipate the dragon thunder on his body. He supported the gravity that had increased ten times, and stepped on the charred ground, leaving a deep footprint with each step.
As the last of the golden lightning on his body was burned away by the black flames, he suddenly felt his whole body relax and his body became light and agile again.

“… Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you had this skill?”
The person in the mirror of the bracelet was stunned.
Xue Jing spread out his palm and looked at the sharp claws of the snake-killing spearhead in his hand.
This claw no longer shone with silvery-white light as before, but instead took on a dull pale color, looking ordinary, just like an ordinary beast's claw, with nothing special about it.
"... Before I used it, I didn't know it was so powerful."
Xue Jing raised his eyebrows.
Although I knew that the Snake Slayer could restrain the Dragon Race... I never expected the restraining effect to be so exaggerated.
Because he had practiced the Hidden Dragon Style, he had been able to experience the restraining effect when facing natural enemies.
But perhaps it was because his essential race was human, and he had only practiced dragon-related martial arts, so the restraint he received was not profound, and his experience was not real enough.
However, this tree dragon is a pure dragon, a complete dragon from the inside out, which allows the killing power of the snake-killing vanguard to be fully exerted.
The vitality that could almost be called immortal was pierced into the core organ by a claw of the snake-killing spearhead, and it died on the spot.
The person in the mirror looked at the claw in Xue Jing's hand that had lost its silver-white luster: "... It looks like this thing is no longer usable."
"Isn't this the only one you have?"
"If there is only one, I definitely won't use it on this guard dragon..."
Xue Jing smiled and took out another four silver claws from the pocket of his tactical uniform.
The person in the mirror suddenly brightened up, stood up from Xue Jing's shoulders, and began to rub his hands excitedly, with an eager look:
"Okay, okay! If that's the case, even if it's a pure-blooded dragon, maybe there's still a chance..."
"This thing should be a conceptual-level alien god power, right? Special attack against dragon species? Where did you get it from?"
The person in the mirror was knowledgeable and could guess the characteristics of the snake-killing scout at a glance.
Xue Jing touched his chin and said, "Well... I picked it up on the road."
The person in the mirror curled his lips and snorted, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I'm not very curious. Anyway, it's good as long as there is hope."
"... I see. You want to use the hand of the Dragon God Priestess, Renia, to get her to find a way to get close to the pure-blooded dragon species, and use this claw to reduce its 'blood volume' in advance... or see if you can just kill it directly."
The person in the mirror said thoughtfully.
"This method is indeed feasible to a certain extent. It depends on how far that girl Renia can go."
"... However, although there is hope that we can kill a pure-blooded dragon, it is only hope."
"The restraining effect of this claw is very strong. It is impeccable in terms of 'quality', but it is slightly lacking in 'quantity'."
Xue Jing asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
The man in the mirror looked at the tree dragon's corpse: "The power of the alien god contained in one claw, when it pierced into the core organ of this guard dragon, just happened to wipe out all its vitality."
It pointed at the sharp claws in Xue Jing's hand that had lost their silvery-white glow.
"A pure-blooded dragon has more vitality than this... If you can pierce its core organs with all four remaining claws, it should be enough to kill it."
“But that’s just an ideal situation.”
The person in the mirror sat on Xue Jing's shoulder again and thought:
"Pure-blooded dragons are very powerful in all aspects, and their speed and reaction are quite fast. It is difficult for you to get close to its core organs. It would be great if you can injure its body."
"Also, you have to take into account the two guard dragons. If you want to kill them, you will also need to use your claws... Otherwise, with their vitality, you will be dragged to death."
Xue Jing thought for a moment and said, "Then we should beat each one half to death first, and then stab them to death with our claws. This way, we should only need to use one to kill two guard dragons, and we can save one."
The man in the mirror nodded, "There are three left... Although they are not enough, if used properly, they should be able to greatly reduce the vitality and combat power of the pure-blooded dragon."
"Then it will be up to you... Even if it is a pure-blooded dragon species with greatly weakened combat power, it will still be a difficult challenge for you."
Xue Jing smiled and said, "I'll try my best."
Perhaps it was the continuous victories along the way that cultivated his invincible mentality... Although he was about to face a terrifying monster that was unprecedented and far superior to him, he did not feel the slightest bit of fear in his heart.
It was as calm as going out to the supermarket instead of facing a pure-blooded dragon. There was no fear at all.
He didn't know whether this mentality was good or bad.
Fear is an emotion that has both negative and positive effects.
Excessive self-confidence has both advantages and disadvantages.
However, so far, I think the benefits should outweigh the disadvantages.
At least he wouldn't make any operational mistakes during the battle due to his inner turmoil.
"Only if you have an invincible heart can you swing an invincible fist..."
Xue Jing stared at his clenched fists.
"The heart of faith is your magic!"
…
Xue Jing was strolling in the valley of the Tree Dragon Territory, looking around with his eyes, squatting down from time to time to open the cracks in the rocks, as if looking for something.
"What are you looking for?" asked the person in the mirror.
Xue Jing raised his hand and exerted force to lift up a large rock. He said, "Dragon Thunder Plant."
"I have to try my best to increase my combat power to the limit..."
As he spoke, Xue Jing's eyes moved and he looked towards a small forest in the distance.
In the gaps between the trees and weeds, he vaguely saw a hint of gold.
With a stomp of his feet, he disappeared from the spot.
Soon, he entered the small forest and quickly found the source of the golden color.
A golden flower shaped like a lotus is blooming between the roots of a big tree.
Xue Jing stretched out his hand to touch the flower crown, and the plant contract was activated. A 'seal of contract' suddenly appeared on the golden lotus flower.
With a thought, the golden lotus that had fulfilled the contract began to grow in reverse, retracting all its petals and rhizomes, and curling up into a golden seed. Xue Jing picked up the seed and put it in his pocket.
After opening the panel and taking a look, the skill name of [Plant Contract] became a little dimmer.
"The more the better. I need as many Dragon Thunder plants as possible to deal with Dragon Thunder."
Xue Jing thought about it, clicked on the upgrade button on [Plant Contract], and spent 800 points of divinity.
[Plant Contract Lv5 (51/1200)]
Seeing the skill name turn light gold again, Xue Jing nodded.
"Keep looking."
…
Three hours later.
Xue Jing stood on the bank of a river, looking upstream at a huge dragon that was lying on the ground, drinking water leisurely with its head down.
It has the same rough bark-like dragon scales as the fat tree dragon, and a slender and huge body that is nearly twenty meters long. However, unlike the tree dragon, this guard dragon has clumps of round flower crowns of various colors all over its body, which looks quite scary.
Xue Jing took a deep breath and reached for the chest pocket of his tactical uniform.
Then, he took out... a handful of seeds.
The seeds are big and small, the largest is as big as a walnut, and the smallest is about the size of a grain of rice. There are a dozen or so in total.
The common point is that all the seeds are golden in color.
