Chapter 386 Four Symbols Martial Arts Golden Dragon
The red iron dragon sped through the raging wind and snow high in the sky, its figure appearing and disappearing like a bolt of lightning tearing through the sky.
With each tilt or extension of his dragon wings, a tangible dark red aura surged and erupted from behind his wings, propelling his movements to accelerate and change direction in an instant, making his flight trajectory unpredictable and elusive.
The snowflakes evaporated the instant they touched the scorching flames, leaving only a brief, empty trail behind them.
And it's not just about movement techniques.
His wings had now become truly deadly weapons.
Its edges are as sharp as knives, emitting a chilling whistling sound as it tears through the air; its wings are as sharp as spears, flashing with cold light, easily piercing through the thick, dense curtain of wind and snow.
Combined with its astonishing wingspan, far exceeding that of its kind, it has a huge attack range.
Furthermore, the instantaneous acceleration brought about by the intermittent bursts of flames makes it far more agile than any conventional flight method that relies on muscle strength.
"There are so many areas that need honing, and I seem to have neglected the development of these two wings of myself."
Galus was distracted by introspection while moving at high speed.
After his dragon wings underwent their first evolution, there was little further development.
Upon careful consideration, this is not a wise choice.
"My dragon wings should have even greater evolutionary potential."
"For example, it can achieve a 360-degree all-round twist and roll, so that slashing and stabbing can be launched from any unimaginable angle, and the amplified flames can burst and burn from any position on the wing surface."
"In comparison, the current way of using it seems somewhat monotonous and lacks variety."
Red Iron Dragon silently planned his future training path while calmly dealing with Golden Dragon's persistent entanglement.
Alberto, like an incredibly stubborn golden meteor, relentlessly attempted to engage in close combat with the Red Iron Dragon, only to be mercilessly repelled time and again by Garos's superior strength, speed, and fighting skills.
This is a friendly competition for the purpose of training.
However, even with Galos's body parts being as sharp as weapons, many wounds of varying depths had already been left on the golden dragon's magnificent scales.
Dragon blood seeped out continuously, splashing onto the snow below, spreading out into dazzling red plum blossoms.
Click! Click!
The crisp sound of dragon scales bursting and shattering under the strain rang out continuously, accompanied by the golden dragon's muffled groans and panting.
At first glance, the scene was indeed horrific.
Holy Shield!
Taking advantage of the tiny gap in the air as the giant wings of the Red Iron Dragon tore through the air again with a mournful howl, Alberto focused his mind.
The holy oath runes shimmered, instantly forming a solid, heavy, and radiant diamond-shaped shield in front of him, barely protecting his vitals.
However, Galus reacted faster than anyone expected.
He subtly tilted his right wing inward, and the flames on the wingtip suddenly surged, unleashing a powerful thrust. This caused his massive body to trace a sharp and swift arc in the air, deftly bypassing the protective range of the Holy Shield, and appearing like a ghost on Alberto's vulnerable flank.
Immediately afterwards, using the momentum of his forward thrust and rotation, he lashed out with his dragon tail, which shrieked as it tore through the air!
Bang!
A powerful and precise tail whip slammed into Jinlong's shoulder.
The overwhelming force struck Alberto, causing him to lose his balance. Like a spinning top being whipped by a giant force, he tumbled several times in the air before barely managing to regain his footing.
Alberto shook his head violently, the intense pain causing him to grimace.
If it were any other dragon with a slightly weaker will, it might have given up in the face of such a one-sided crushing defeat.
But Alberto does possess a resilient heart, and is trying to find a way to grow amidst the immense pressure from Garros.
Jinlong took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the pain and discomfort in his body, and adjusted his slightly messy flight posture.
He charged forward once again.
Then, unsurprisingly, the golden dragon once again transformed into an uncontrollable spinning top in the air, mercilessly whipped and tossed about by the red iron dragon from all angles.
To an uninformed person, the scene did indeed resemble one-sided abuse.
At this moment, this scene was precisely seen by Natasha, the golden dragon who had just quietly arrived in the airspace of Dragon Valley.
Her golden eyes narrowed instantly, almost turning into two thin lines.
The first thing she sensed was the overwhelming presence of numerous evil dragons within the valley.
Although most of them were still young, a few were extremely powerful, especially the black and red dragon that was currently wreaking havoc. Its powerful aura made her heart skip a beat. Its physique and temperament clearly indicated that it was the leader of this place, and it must be extremely powerful.
"A place where a tightly structured, numerous, and formidable horde of dragons dwells!"
Natasha made a decision instantly.
At the same time, her gaze fell on the golden figure high in the sky, which was being repeatedly struck and looked disheveled.
It's Alberto!
It was her foolish, rebellious, and arrogant younger brother, who was her blood relative.
At this moment, he was being relentlessly struck and whipped away by that imposing, oppressive red iron dragon. He seemed powerless to fight back, and even maintaining basic stable flight was extremely difficult.
Aside from their fear of the red iron dragon leader.
A fire of anger and heartache instantly surged into Natasha's heart.
As expected! Alberto has been captured! And he is being subjected to cruel torture and abuse!
She recognized the scene before her almost instantly.
That ferocious-looking, ruthless red iron dragon must be the lord of this evil dragon pack.
She could almost vividly imagine the terrible suffering and torment Alberto endured after his capture, due to his stubborn and unruly nature.
Back in the Dragon Realm, she did her fair share of discipline for her dragon brother, who was prone to making boastful remarks, but that was ultimately a form of care and guidance within the family.
How can one tolerate such humiliation from a foreign dragon, especially an evil one, among one's own blood relatives?!
Thank goodness.
Before leaving, Jinlong's father gave her a set of precious armor that he had once used.
It was a truly powerful set of equipment, crafted by dragon alchemists, with countless intricate and powerful amplification arrays engraved inside the armor.
Although it is not of the legendary rank, it is definitely a top-tier piece of equipment below the legendary level.
When Natasha put it on, it was enough to easily suppress a powerful level 19 dragon, and even hold her own against a level 20 dragon.
Even a level 20 dragon wearing it will still gain a considerable boost, basically sweeping away all creatures below the legendary level. If the wearer's base strength is strong enough, it is not impossible for them to fight an ordinary legendary being to a standstill.
"roar--!"
A dragon's roar, filled with fury and majesty, tore through the wind and snow, and a golden figure, like an arrow released from a bow, swooped down from the clouds where it was hiding.
Click! Click! Click!
Amidst a rapid and crisp metallic clang, countless armor plates, seemingly crafted from pure gold, appeared out of thin air.
They seemed to possess life, rapidly swirling around Natasha's slender and graceful golden dragon body.
As she charged forward, the components attached themselves to her body with dazzling speed and precision, instantly assembling into a magnificent and practical set of split-type golden armor.
The armor tightly covered her chest, long neck, strong limbs, broad dragon wings, and powerful long tail. Its surface was engraved with dense and complex magical runes, which were now flowing with dazzling golden light, making her appear powerful and majestic.
Clad in dazzling golden armor, Natasha spreads her wings and pounces straight at the evil red iron dragon high in the sky!
"Stop! Lord of Dragons! Release my brother immediately!"
Natasha's roar, filled with anger and majesty, was like rolling thunder, instantly resounding throughout every corner of Dragon Valley.
The sudden turn of events immediately caused a stir among the dragons in the valley.
Therese, who was teaching the young dragons and hatchlings, looked up and quickly assessed the ecological niche of the golden dragons; Deborah, the red-silver dragon, and Zoraya, the blue dragon, who were secretly competing, frowned slightly and looked at the sky warily; the young dragons shrank their necks in fright, but couldn't help but look around curiously.
Alberto, high in the sky, froze upon hearing the familiar voice. He turned around and saw his sister rushing towards him, and was immediately terrified.
"wait"
He wanted to explain.
However, due to a momentary lapse in concentration, and because the Red Iron Dragon's claws were already within reach and he couldn't retract them, with a muffled thud, his head was struck solidly, and he immediately tilted his head and fell to the ground.
Witnessing her brother being brutally shot down only fueled Natasha's rage.
boom!
A dense golden dragon aura, like a volcanic eruption, surged out from the gaps in her golden armor and beneath her scales, quickly wrapping around her limbs, wings, and powerful tail, causing her aura to rise once again.
Wind Spirits Attack!
With a flap of her wings, dragon energy swirled like a whirlwind, increasing her speed as she approached the red iron dragon.
Thunder Claw! Winter Claw!
Natasha moved with incredible speed, attacking from both sides and simultaneously raising her claws covered in golden claw sheaths.
On her left claw, blinding golden electricity leaped and coalesced like countless tiny lightning snakes, crackling and hissing; while on her right claw, a chilling aura surged forth, freezing the surrounding air into ice crystals.
Two claw strikes, of different attributes but equally ferocious, clashed together toward the Red Iron Dragon's head and chest.
Sensing the overwhelming power of the golden dragon approaching before him, Garus narrowed his eyes slightly, a serious expression flashing across his face.
He let out a low roar, and his already massive body swelled up even more as if inflated, unleashing its full power.
Muscles bulged, scales stood erect.
The red iron dragon flapped its wings and launched a fierce counterattack from below against the golden dragon Natasha's attack.
Sizzle!
He made a superb sideways movement in mid-air, and his huge and sharp wing spear, with its super long attack range, struck first, aiming at the chest and abdomen of the golden dragon Natasha!
Soaring through the clouds!
Just a moment before the Sharp Wing Spear was about to touch the golden armor, Natasha's body suddenly became ethereal, as if it had turned into invisible clouds, and suddenly scattered, narrowly avoiding the dangerous attack at the last second.
The next instant, she appeared as if teleported, in the airspace behind the Red Iron Dragon's blind spot.
"This dragon king must be very skilled in close combat."
"Maintain a safe distance and use my advantages to fight back."
In a split second, Natasha made a rational decision.
She swung her claws through the air towards the red iron dragon's back.
Screech! Screech!
The massive claw mark, formed by highly condensed cold air and leaping lightning, tore through the air, seemingly traversing the distance of space, and struck the Red Iron Dragon squarely on the back.
In an instant, dazzling lightning bolts leaped and exploded on his dark red scales like a spider web.
The biting cold spread rapidly at a visible speed, attempting to freeze him.
The red iron dragon's originally smooth and swift movements were visibly severely affected, becoming much slower and stiffer.
In the midst of the fierce battle, time seemed to slow down.
Natasha kept a distance she considered safe from the Red Iron Dragon, no longer approaching easily, and instead began to launch a continuous and fierce elemental attack from a distance.
Flames, rocks, lightning, ice, flowing water...
Various kinds of colorful elemental energy were skillfully unleashed with each claw strike, wing flap, and even tail whip, pouring continuously towards the location of the Red Iron Dragon, completely engulfing him.
Her attacks were fierce and fluid, her movements swift, and the transitions between different skills were almost seamless, flowing like water.
Without a doubt, Natasha the Golden Dragon is a highly skilled fighting dragon.
Unlike Garus, she is a more balanced and well-rounded four-elemental dragon, possessing a variety of elemental attack skills that are both ranged and melee-based. She is particularly adept at controlling the rhythm of battle at close to mid-range by using unpredictable elemental combinations, with each attack carrying distinct elemental characteristics and effects.
The North Wind's Grip!
She seized an opportunity and, from a distance, clenched her dragon claw tightly towards the area where energy was surging.
Whoosh—!
The surrounding blizzard seemed to be summoned by an invisible force, instantly howling and coalescing into a gigantic, semi-transparent wind claw that gripped the red iron dragon's body, which had just emerged from the energy bombardment.
Level 12 Dragon Aura Circulation!
Claw Mastery! Four Elements Bursting Claw!
Nasha the Golden Dragon let out a deep dragon roar, pushing the battle to its climax.
The surging dragon energy within her body, like a burst dam, violently converged towards her right claw.
As these dragon energies surged forth, they naturally differentiated and evolved into the four most basic elemental energies: earth, water, wind, and fire! They intertwined, mixed, and compressed with each other, emitting an extremely dangerous aura.
"End this! You evil dragon! Take this!"
At this moment, all the runes on Natasha's golden armor lit up, as if she were covered in a layer of golden flames, and her aura rose to its peak, her momentum unstoppable.
Without further hesitation, she flapped her dragon wings and moved closer to the red iron dragon, which was temporarily bound by the wind claws, preparing to use the Four Elements Burst Claws to end the battle once and for all.
Just then.
She saw that the dragon showed no sign of panic or fear; instead, it opened its massive, fang-filled mouth and revealed a chilling smile.
"I've had enough of your fancy dances."
Buzz! Buzz—!
Two dense, dark red dragon energies surged and burned from behind his shoulder blades, instantly condensing into two massive, muscular dragon energy arms.
Knock knock!
Thump thump thump—!
Like the beating of a war drum, a heartbeat emanated from the red iron dragon's chest, shaking the surrounding air.
With that sound, his body swelled up again! His muscles bulged like mountains, exuding an explosive sense of power.
At the same time.
Galos suddenly pushed his arms outward.
The giant wind claw that bound him was forcefully shattered by his pure power, torn to pieces, and transformed into turbulent currents that scattered and surged in all directions.
Level 11 Dragon Qi Circulation!
Claw Mastery! Explosive Claw!
The surging lightning, mixed with the vigorous dragon energy of the bursting blood, converged on Garos's right claw like rivers flowing into the sea.
The next moment.
Garus's claws had broken through the scattered gales and were heading straight for the explosive claws of the golden dragon Nasha, which were shining with four colors.
Boom! ...
They collided together without any fancy moves.
The deafening roar of the explosion seemed to shake the entire sky.
A shockwave, visible to the naked eye, suddenly spread out in a ring, dispersing a large area of flying snow and clouds, almost creating a vacuum.
Natasha felt an indescribable tremor in her right arm.
A surge of immense power swept through his entire body.
She had no doubt that if it weren't for the armor her father had given her, which had mitigated most of the damage, she would probably have shattered dragon scales, torn muscles, and even broken arm bones by now!
even so.
The powerful impact still caused her excruciating pain throughout her right arm, and she almost lost sensation for a short period of time.
"Is this really a level 18 evil dragon?"
For a moment, Natasha wondered if the detection array built into the armor was malfunctioning and misjudging the Red Iron Dragon's life level.
A strong sense of crisis washed over her like ice water, instantly sobering her up.
She flapped her dragon wings, trying to slip away.
However, it was too late.
The red iron dragon's left claw moved with lightning speed, grabbing Natasha's slender neck. At the same time, its two dragon-powered arms shot up, each gripping the base of her struggling dragon wings.
"What?!"
Natasha was deeply shocked.
At the same time, Galos, with his superior strength, held the golden dragon Natasha firmly in his grasp, dragging her down rapidly from the sky.
Just as he approached a patch of hard, frozen ground on the outskirts of Dragon Valley, he swiftly and violently flipped over.
boom!
The earth groaned in agony, unable to bear the weight any longer.
The thick snow was instantly blown away by the airflow from the falling snow, revealing the permafrost layer underneath.
At this moment, Natasha, the golden dragon clad in magnificent armor, had been firmly pinned down in the collapsed pit.
One forepaw gripped her throat, while two massive dragon arms locked her wings in an almost embracing posture.
"Oh no, am I going to be turned into a dragon's prisoner too?"
Not only did she fail to rescue the dragon brother, but she also got herself killed. In an instant, images of herself being humiliated by the evil dragon flashed through Natasha's mind.
She resisted fiercely.
However, the hot, heavy breathing came almost head-on, and the Red Iron Dragon's massive body, like a heavy mountain, completely suppressed all her struggles and resistance.
