"Roar!!"
A thunderous roar resounded like a clap of thunder.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Countless boulders in the valley immediately shattered, turning into countless pieces of rubble shooting in all directions, with many people almost getting hurt.
But those who dared to slay a dragon were either elite mercenaries, top-notch assassins, or core members of the major European noble families. Each one had exceptional skills and naturally could dodge in time.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
The evil dragon landed, its flapping wings raising a fierce gale, clearing the accumulated snow in an instant and revealing the dry, brown earth below.
Faintly, traces of dark red could be seen, resembling the color of dried blood.
"Humans, have you come to seek death again?!"
The dragon roared, its voice filled with disdain and mockery.
"This evil dragon can actually speak!"
Hearing the dragon's jeering voice, someone immediately exclaimed in disbelief.
"Die!"
The evil dragon, however, didn't bother wasting words with them. It roared again, then suddenly opened its mouth, spewing out dazzling deep blue light!
"Crack crack crack..."
A group of people couldn't dodge in time and were instantly swept by the deep blue light, frozen into ice statues.
Even when encapsulated in ice, their expressions still hadn't registered the event. Some looked surprised and cocky, others eager to try, while a small portion showed sheer terror in their eyes.
"Kill!"
Silver Moon, the leader of the Silver Moon Assassins, saw many of his subordinates perish instantly. His face sank, and he shouted angrily.
With a "swish", he disappeared from everyone's sight, as if hidden by an invisibility ability.
Mu Jinyu witnessed this and was initially startled, thinking he, like Nameless, possessed an invisibility ability. But then he realized something was off.
Nameless's invisibility was such that even Divine Sense could hardly detect it, but although this assassin named Silver Moon was invisible to the naked eye, he could still be tracked by Divine Sense scans.
"It must be some kind of secret technique, merging him into the surrounding environment, making it hard to see with the naked eye..."
Mu Jinyu deduced the rough method and lost interest.
"Whoosh!"
Silver Moon reappeared quickly, wielding a sharp tachi, suddenly appearing mid-air, striking precisely at the ice-blue dragon's eye!
"Swish!"
The sword was unbelievably fast, an exquisite display.
In an instant, time seemed to stop, the world appeared frozen, with only the blade in motion, slowly closing in on the dragon's eye socket!
"Clang!!"
The sharp tachi finally succeeded in stabbing the dragon's eye, but unfortunately, at the last moment, the dragon's eyelid closed, with the blade only piercing the eyelid.
With a burst of sparks shooting out, the tachi shattered into several pieces, scattering in all directions!
"Roar!!"
The ice-blue dragon reopened its eyes, letting out an icy roar.
Silver Moon, poised mid-air, ready to retreat after the failed strike, suddenly felt the surrounding void thickening with the dragon's reopened eyes, like being trapped in a quagmire!
"Ah!!"
Silver Moon screamed, his body was instantly crushed into a pulp, falling from the sky.
"Thud", he landed on the ground.
"Captain!"
The Silver Moon Assassins who had been quietly cheering for Silver Moon's fearless strike were frozen in shock at this sight, crying out mournfully.
"So strong!"
"Let's attack together. One-on-one, we might not be a match for this evil dragon!"
Blaine from the Victor Family and Gino, the leader of the Fang of the Wolf Mercenaries, along with leaders of other organizations, grew solemn after witnessing Silver Moon's tragic end.
They understood that if they continued fighting solo, hoping to claim the dragon's treasure alone, they would likely be divided and conquered by the dragon. Cooperation was the only way to slay the dragon and survive!
"Heh!"
In an instant, they cast aside their grievances and resentments, joining forces and combining their divine skills to unleash a coordinated assault on the dragon!
"Boom!!"
"Bang!!"
"Clang!"
Blaine raised his hands and condensed a small mountain, throwing it down with great force. The giant stone descended like a meteor, engulfed in raging flames, slamming into the dragon!
"Crack!"
"Boom!"
The scales on the dragon's forehead shattered with a thunderous sound, the searing flames even cooking its flesh, causing it to let out a shrill howl of pain.
"Boom!!"
Gino, the leader of the Fang of the Wolf Mercenaries, drew bone spears made from exotic beast bones from his back, hurling them down with force, vibrating through the air, and piercing the dragon's ruptured scales!
"Bang!"
Simultaneously, the bone spears shattered, splintering into countless fragments inside the dragon, further aggravating its wounds!
"Heh!!"
Brett, the leader from a certain noble family, carrying two rocket launchers, shouted fiercely as two specially made rockets, capable of wounding Fanxu Realm experts, brutally struck the dragon's eyes.
It caused its eyelid to bleed profusely, almost blinding it.
"Good!"
John and others, sensible enough not to rush in, couldn't help but pump their fists and cheer at the sight.
Yet Mu Jinyu remained calm, not paying much attention to this dragon-slaying spectacle.
Whether the dragon lived or died mattered little to him; he was still searching for Wǔ Shìshēng.
Under his watch, he noticed the grotesque Gu insects lurking beneath the ground were devouring the blood and flesh of Silver Moon and others who died beneath the dragon's claws.
Along with their shattered souls, these little bugs devoured them indiscriminately.
As these soul fragments were consumed, tendrils of black mist slowly spread from the insects' heads, vaguely forming terrifying ghost faces.
Then, the ghostly mist, sometimes forming ghost faces, dispersed to the distance.
Mysteriously, after drifting a certain distance from the bugs' heads, the black mist vanished, leaving its whereabouts unknown.
"Quite cautious, aren't they..."
Mu Jinyu couldn't immediately discern where the Resentful Spirit Ghost Mist had gone, given time, he could surely trace it back, but he preferred not to waste time like that.
Thus, Mu Jinyu's eyes flashed as he decided to directly slay the dragon and exterminate the burrowing insects, to see if Wǔ Shìshēng, this old witch-ghoul, could resist revealing himself?
Just as Mu Jinyu was about to personally finish the dragon, a thought struck him.
What if Wǔ Shìshēng was observing the situation?
If he acted personally, would it alert him, causing him to refrain from coming even if the Gu insects and dragon died?
Thinking this, Mu Jinyu ultimately decided to act in secret and let Blaine and others continue their performance in the front!
"Whoosh!"
With this in mind, Mu Jinyu flicked his fingers, a concentrated stream of vigorous energy shot out, heading towards the dragon.
"Roar!"
The dragon roared angrily, spewing terrifying ice-blue dragon breath in all directions. Many failed to evade, instantly frozen into popsicles, then shattered into ice shards, dying on the spot!
Amidst this chaos, the streak of vigorous energy released by Mu Jinyu pierced through the dragon's true qi protective shield, breaking its tough scales, finally piercing its heart!
