Immortal God of War

Chapter 628 - 609

The Black Dragon nodded, and Qin Feiyang’s spirit surged as he darted toward the ’Dragon Scale’ like a bolt of lightning. To defeat the Black Dragon, he first had to shatter that Dragon Scale. In the blink of an eye, Qin Feiyang confronted the Dragon Scale.

"War!"

Without hesitation, he activated his War Technique. His dark hair and eyes instantly turned blood-red, as if stained by blood.

What a formidable will to fight! The Black Dragon’s pupils couldn’t help but contract. Initially, Qin Feiyang was merely a tiny ant in its eyes, but now, he appeared like a savage War God incarnate. It even felt a stir of panic in its heart!

Looking at Qin Feiyang once more! After activating the War Technique, he was mere inches from the Dragon Scale. The sharp aura emanating from the Dragon Scale threatened to tear his flesh! Even with the War Technique’s protection, he felt the looming threat of death. However, he showed no sign of panic.

Executing the Phantom Step, he took a large stride to the side, simultaneously twisting his body to let the Dragon Scale fly past his front. But before the Dragon Scale could pass completely, he abruptly raised the arm holding Blue Snow, its blade lightly grazing the Dragon Scale’s surface. He had calculated all this beforehand. Because if he confronted the Dragon Scale head-on, he would bear the full brunt of its impact. After all, the Dragon Scale’s power was immense. Even if Blue Snow managed to destroy it, he himself would be pulverized by the Dragon Scale, not even a strand of hair left behind. But now, he had sidestepped a direct collision with the Dragon Scale, merely letting Blue Snow’s blade graze its surface. This way, the impact he would endure was significantly lessened. The resulting injuries, naturally, would not be as severe.

As for whether this maneuver could destroy the Dragon Scale, Qin Feiyang hadn’t even considered it. He was confident that with Blue Snow’s sharpness, even a slight graze would be enough to destroy the Dragon Scale!

Qin Feiyang leaned forward, and as Blue Snow swept across the Dragon Scale, a piercing metallic clang erupted. Simultaneously, dazzling sparks flew from the point of contact between Blue Snow and the Dragon Scale. But all this, like a fleeting illusion, occurred in a mere moment.

However, despite that light graze, Qin Feiyang was sent flying by the Dragon Scale. Not only did his body crack open, but he also coughed up blood, his internal organs shattered! The arm holding Blue Snow was instantly obliterated, flesh and blood scattering! Without the War Technique, if he had faced the Dragon Scale head-on, he would undoubtedly have been reduced to a bloody mist in the air!

BANG!

Like a cannonball, he crashed into a massive boulder nearby. With a THUNDERCLAP, the boulder instantly disintegrated. Qin Feiyang then slammed into the ground, carving out a deep crater.

Dong Zhengyang and the others glanced at Qin Feiyang, then immediately turned their gaze to the Dragon Scale. The Dragon Scale, like a spinning blade, whirled in the air. A closer look revealed a white mark on the Dragon Scale, but it remained intact. Seeing this, disappointment flickered across the faces of Dong Zhengyang and the others. The Black Dragon, however, was filled with disdain.

It looked down at Qin Feiyang lying in the deep crater, sneering, "Do you understand the gulf between this Emperor and you now? Still, you’re quite resilient to have survived that."

Qin Feiyang’s lips curved into a smirk. He chuckled, "Thank you for the compliment."

The Black Dragon was stunned. This human whelp is still laughing? He’s somewhat interesting.

Qin Feiyang struggled to his feet, produced a Rebirth Pill marked with four Elixir Patterns and several healing pills, and shoved them all into his mouth. The pills melted instantly upon contact with his tongue, and potent energy surged through his limbs and meridians like a raging torrent. For his ravaged body, this was like a godsend, and it frantically absorbed the energy. His injuries began to mend at a rate visible to the naked eye. But this was merely treating the symptoms, not the root cause. His injuries were too severe; only the Flame of Life could fully repair them. But this was no time for thorough healing; he had to endure.

And just as Qin Feiyang took out the pills, the Black Dragon’s pupils contracted, its eyes filled with disbelief. Witnessing the terrifying speed of Qin Feiyang’s recovery, its astonishment grew.

Am I seeing things? Four Elixir Patterns?

"Are you an Alchemist?" the Black Dragon asked.

"Correct," Qin Feiyang nodded.

The Black Dragon said, "Good. This Emperor will give you a chance. Swear to be this Emperor’s servant, and I shall spare your life."

"And you’re that confident?" Qin Feiyang’s lips curled slightly.

CLANG!

Before his words had even faded, a colossal BANG suddenly erupted, a sound so loud it shook the heavens and threatened to rupture their eardrums. Everyone whirled towards the sound, their faces instantly paling in horror. To their utter astonishment, the Dragon Scale spinning in the void suddenly split in two! Then, the two halves of the Dragon Scale fractured further, before completely disintegrating into dust!

"How is this possible?" The Black Dragon stared at this, its eyes nearly bulging from their sockets. Simultaneously, a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of its mouth, and its aura abruptly diminished by a minor realm.

"What’s so impossible?" Qin Feiyang’s voice rang out. He climbed out of the deep crater step by step, his blood-soaked robes fluttering, his blood-red hair dancing wildly in the wind.

As Dong Zhengyang and the others watched, it was as if they were witnessing the return of an invincible War God; their spirits couldn’t help but tremble. Previously, even their combined efforts couldn’t destroy the Dragon Scale, yet now, Qin Feiyang had shattered it. Just what terrifying level of strength does this fellow possess?

SWOOSH!

Suddenly, several pairs of eyes—including the Black Dragon’s—fixed on Blue Snow lying on the ground, a brilliant gleam flashing within them. Murong Xiong, Dongfang Wuheng, and the Black Dragon, in particular, made no attempt to conceal their avarice.

Murong Xiong’s fists clenched, his eyes burning with fervor. He transmitted his voice to Dongfang Wuheng, "Dongfang Wuheng, let’s move!"

Dongfang Wuheng replied via voice transmission, "Don’t be impulsive. Acting now would be unwise."

"What’s there to fear?" Murong Xiong pressed. "Once we seize that dagger, even if Qin Feiyang and Dong Zhengyang’s group join forces, we can still eliminate them!"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Wuheng began to feel tempted.

Murong Xiong urged, "Quickly, or it’ll be too late." Because Qin Feiyang was already walking towards Blue Snow.

Dongfang Wuheng glanced at Qin Feiyang, then at Dong Zhengyang and his two companions. Finally, steeling his resolve, he roared, "Get it!"

WHOOSH!!

Almost simultaneously, the two of them shot out like a pair of sharp arrows.

"Huh?" Dong Zhengyang, Shen Long, and Jian Wei were stunned. Qin Feiyang also looked at the pair with suspicion. But they were all quick-witted and immediately understood the duo’s intentions.

"Dongfang Wuheng, Murong Xiong, what do you think you’re doing?" Shen Long and Jian Wei bellowed, moving without hesitation to intercept Dongfang Wuheng and Murong Xiong.

Dong Zhengyang, however, remained still, his gaze flickering with uncertainty as he scanned the individuals involved.

At the same time, the Black Dragon abruptly raised its colossal tail, roaring, "That dagger belongs to this Emperor! Who dares try to take it?" As its words fell, its raised tail lashed out towards Dongfang Wuheng and Murong Xiong.

Qin Feiyang chuckled. "This dagger of mine certainly seems popular!" Far from worried, he stopped, folded his arms, and watched the Black Dragon, Dongfang Wuheng, and Murong Xiong with an amused, mocking gaze.

Dongfang Wuheng glanced at Qin Feiyang and yelled, "Murong Xiong, stop Shen Long and Jian Wei!"

BOOM!

Murong Xiong whirled around, his aura flaring, and thrust his hands out to attack Shen Long and Jian Wei.

"You two are incorrigible!" Shen Long and Jian Wei roared in anger, unleashing their full power against Murong Xiong, their Battle Intent surging outwards!

At the same moment, Dongfang Wuheng shot a glance at the Black Dragon and sneered, "Without your Dragon Scale, you’re less than an ant! How dare you act so arrogantly before me?" He waved his hand, Battle Intent billowing, and a colossal arrow instantly materialized in the air. "Sun Piercing Arrow—die!"

Then, Dongfang Wuheng let out a heaven-shaking roar, and the arrow tore through the air, speeding towards the Black Dragon’s massive tail. The Sun Piercing Arrow was a superior-grade War Technique! The Black Dragon’s power was currently greatly diminished; even with its astounding defenses, it couldn’t block the Sun Piercing Arrow’s devastating strike.

CRASH!

Instantly, its massive tail was shattered by the Sun Piercing Arrow, blood gushing like a fountain! Its enormous body was sent flying, and it howled in agony.

"Worthless!" Dongfang Wuheng sneered dismissively. His gaze fell upon the dagger, and his heart was instantly consumed by greed as he frantically dashed towards it.

"AAARGH..."

Just as the Black Dragon was sent flying by Dongfang Wuheng, another scream echoed. It was Murong Xiong’s! Shen Long and Jian Wei were now both one-star War Ancestors; how could Murong Xiong possibly be their match alone? His fate was the same as the Black Dragon’s; he was sent flying, blood spewing wildly from his mouth.

"Dongfang Wuheng, stop your foolish persistence!" After sending Murong Xiong flying, Shen Long and Jian Wei relentlessly pursued Dongfang Wuheng.

Dongfang Wuheng glanced back at the two, roaring, "What benefits did Qin Feiyang give you that makes you so willing to lay down your lives for him?"

Shen Long declared, "He gave us the elixirs that allowed us to reach the War Ancestor realm! For that alone, we are indebted to him!"

"Elixirs... so it really was elixirs!" Dongfang Wuheng’s eyes trembled. But what kind of elixirs could they be? Do such miraculous elixirs truly exist in this world?

Never mind, he muttered to himself. Compared to some unknown elixirs, this dagger is far more important. He was now only five or six meters from Blue Snow; with his cultivation, it was practically within his grasp.

Once I get my hands on that dagger, every single one of you will die! Dongfang Wuheng roared inwardly and pounced towards Blue Snow, a rapturous expression already spreading across his face.

WHIR!

But just then, a dark iron chain shot through the air like a lightning bolt, coiling around Dongfang Wuheng’s waist.

"Freeze!" Dong Zhengyang’s shout followed, and the iron chain instantly erupted with a black radiance as an obscure aura spread out. Dongfang Wuheng was instantly immobilized in mid-air.

Now, he was utterly dumbfounded. The dagger was right before his eyes, yet it felt as if an insurmountable chasm separated them—so close, yet utterly unreachable! This feeling drove him to the brink of madness, his fury blazing to the heavens!

Qin Feiyang sighed deeply. He walked up to Blue Snow, bent down to pick it up, then looked at the enraged Dongfang Wuheng. "Are my things so easy to take?"

With that, Qin Feiyang looked up at Dong Zhengyang and smiled. "Brother Dong, let him go."

"Huh?" Dong Zhengyang was startled.

Shen Long and Jian Wei exchanged bewildered glances, stunned into silence for a long moment.
