Chapter 536: Volume 13: Sea Rain and Heavenly Wind Chapter 6: Taking the Stage in Makeup

Komer’s judgment was not wrong. As the Ice Dragon bore the excruciating pain and angrily roared, lashing out with its tail, claws, and Dragon Breath Magic at the two figures that darted around like swimming fish, it realized that these humans, lowly as ants, were unexpectedly difficult to deal with. Every time it struck with its tail or claws, it always missed by just a step; only its Dragon Breath Magic forced the opponents to activate their Fighting Qi to counter it.

However, this did not matter. Apart from buying a bit more time, it had no other value. The Ice Dragon pridefully thought that its strength endurance surpassed any other race, believing it laughable for these humans to try to exhaust its physical strength by such means.

What? The Ice Dragon’s bulging eyes witnessed the two figures suddenly rise above the Reed Marsh, merging their Sword Qi into one and once again forming a column of qi that cleaved towards it. The Ice Dragon was overjoyed. How foolish could they be, daring to rise into the sky and clash with it directly—was this not seeking their own deaths?

Without much thought, the Ice Dragon madly pounced forward in its euphoria. Its dragon feet swiftly parted and then slammed together in a pincer strike. At that moment, the sheer force seemed to warp the very space, with thunderous winds swirling around. It was the best explanation for the tempest. As the dragon’s jaws contracted then expanded, a thick, ice-blue Dragon Breath burst forth from its maw.

The Ice Dragon no longer wished to use Dragon Breath Magic. This straightforward attack was a better display of the dragon’s power, and it also left the two wretches with no escape. The sky was enveloped in an icy blue breath so chilling it made even the sun seem dull by comparison. The swooshing Sword Qi and the Air Yuan Force, solidified by the freeze, collided with a pleasant, crisp sound.

Unable to restrain its clucking laughter, the Ice Dragon’s huge mouth was so agape with joy it couldn’t close. At this time, no one could change the fate of these two fools. The force unleashed by its Dragon Breath and dragon feet was enough to pulverize them into dust—a fitting compensation for the Ice Dragon’s injured body and spirit!

Komer, Rebry, and Solonberg couldn’t help but stand up, though their expressions unchanged. But even Komer was somewhat surprised in his heart. For two powerful figures to confront it head-on was nothing short of a suicidal act. No matter how fierce their Sword Qi was, under the indestructible collision of the Dragon Breath and dragon feet, their deaths were certain!

Just at that moment, the water’s surface burst once more, and countless Jellyfish People archers leapt out again. Arrow showers once more enveloped the entirely self-satisfied Ice Dragon. Although taken aback, the Ice Dragon was not afraid. With a grand flap of its wings, it created whirlwinds that caused most of the arrow rain to drift away, while the few that managed to hit either struck the protected scaly areas or the thick dragon hide, causing no harm. Moreover, even if poisoned arrows hit the dragon’s body, what of it? The Ice Dragon could easily slaughter all these ordinary warriors once it had dealt with the two strong opponents.

However, things did not proceed as anyone had expected. One figure had ascended unnoticed, surpassing the other Jellyfish People warriors. With a longbow shining with a dark, muted light in hand, it stood out in the sky, looking like a celestial god poised to shoot an arrow from heaven as it smoothly glided above the Reed Marsh.

"Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!" Three dull thumps that stifled one’s breath and induced a blood-vomit-inducing sensation unobstructed by the air, reached everyone’s ears. Each thud made the onlookers’ hearts jump.

Three oily yellow arrows transitioned from slow to fast, unperturbed by the icy shell formed from the Dragon Breath as they plunged directly into the dragon’s body. The Ice Dragon now realized the terrible truth: the two figures who had elected to clash with it in the air had done so just to lure it out. The one hidden in the water all along was the real threat. Without time to consider further, and ignoring whether its flimsy wings would be damaged, the Ice Dragon flapped its wings ferociously to counter. The powerful surge did nothing to stop the oily yellow arrows, evidently not ordinary arrows.

Gracefully penetrating the thin wing membrane, the panic-stricken Ice Dragon was too late to strike back at its already entered prey. Now, it had to consider how to dodge these eerily peculiar arrows. Its rounded body executed a stunning roll in the air, its tail deftly striking the shaft of an arrow that nearly reached its flank, knocking away the most peripheral one. But even through the tail, the Ice Dragon felt the arrow’s odd strength—it was a magic arrow!

Before its horror settled, the other two arrows, like shooting stars, pierced the dragon’s body instantaneously. A pitiful wail, accompanied by the explosion of the two magic arrows, resounded, with the Dragon’s harsh wails once again subjecting the warriors to a trial by Dragon Roar. Yet this Roar was far weaker than the earlier roar when the Ice Dragon’s morale was at its peak, but it still caused many of the Jellyfish People warriors to vomit blood on the spot.

The two Swordmasters, amidst the widespread Dragon Roar, teetered on the verge of collapse. After surviving the onslaught of both Dragon Breath and the force of the dragon’s feet, they now faced another wave from the Dragon Roar. Despite their unparalleled pride, the impact was too much to bear, and they plummeted from the sky into the Reed Marsh below, causing two beautiful splashes as they hit the water while the Jellyfish People warriors exclaimed in shock.

The magic arrows dug deep into the rounded, beautiful body of the Ice Dragon, and the Air Magic within them suddenly exploded at this moment. Two huge red blossoms burst forth, scattering like falling petals over the water’s surface, painting the entire Reed Marsh a crimson red.

Two bone-deep wounds, one under the rib cage and the other on the spine, with the one under the rib being the most vicious. Even from two hundred meters away, Komer could feel the surge of Dragon Magic Power emanating from that wound. This strike was enough to set the Ice Dragon’s cultivation back at least fifty years.

By now, the Ice Dragon had completely succumbed to rage, the repeated serious injuries making it lose all reason. It didn’t even care that its body was in no condition for further combat as it breathed out once more, casting the icy blue mist of Dragon Breath Magic across the Reed Marsh. Even the air tinged slightly blue—a sign that the Ice Dragon was exerting even the most quintessential part of its Dragon Magic Power found within its Dragon Yuan Force.

If this "Ice Soul Resentment" failed to seal these people’s fate, then it truly had no choice but to flee in a panic. It already felt not only the intense pain from the wounds inflicted by the two magic arrows, but also an exceedingly dreaded sensation of dizziness and numbness. This indicated those despicable creatures had even smeared Dragon Saliva Fragrance onto the magic arrows. It had to find a suitable place to hide before the poison took effect, but it could hardly bear the thought of not killing these nuisances first!

"Alright, it’s our turn to take the stage!" Only now did Komer, composed and unhurried, suddenly spring into action. With a swift leap, and aided by the Wind System Magic "Wind Travels Thousands of Miles" launched by Rebury, his body took to the air as effortlessly as a gliding bat, while Rebury himself moved with unruffled steps albeit at a blazingly fast pace. Sault, on the other hand, depended solely on his Fighting Qi, which had reached the levels of soaring through clouds, propelling forward with a huge whooshing gas balloon.

As soon as the two Ultimate Fire Magic spells "Golden Snake Dance" and "Flame Dance Nine Heavens" were released, Komer couldn’t help feeling his body weaken a bit. It was then that Rebury, perceiving Komer’s struggling strength, gently used the Wind Travel Technique to keep him afloat, preventing him from embarrassingly plummeting into the water on the spot.

The release of those two powerful Fire Magic spells immediately relaxed the completely frozen Reed Marsh. The potent Fire Element, guided by Komer’s deliberate casting, burst forth at last, covering the entire sky above the Reed Marsh with stray Fire Yuan Force. This compelled the Jellyfish People warriors, frozen solid and petrified onto the water’s surface, to sneeze involuntarily—if not for the sneeze, they’d have been doomed to freeze to death on the water, forever turned into ice sculptures.

Rebury’s "Dark Binding" wound around the Ice Dragon like a web crafted from threads spun by ghostly shadows, enveloping it layer upon layer.

The Dragon’s Breath seemed of little use against this magic from the depths of Hell Abyss—it certainly didn’t anticipate that its sudden Dragon’s Breath almost burst Rebury’s self-proclaimed incomparable "Dark Binding." It took three consecutive solidifying spell casts just to barely hold off the Ice Dragon that was on the verge of breaking free. The Ice Dragon was simply too alluring; slaying it would indubitably be equivalent to obtaining a tremendous treasure, which is why Rebury had launched straight into his most adept Dark Magic.

Finally, at the last moment, Sault’s Knight Spear shone with a two-foot glow, but unfortunately, the Ice Dragon had spotted him from the start and perceived him as its primary adversary. The colossal dragon foot, disregarding the restraint of the "Dark Binding," struck forcefully, flinging Sault ten meters away.

The overwhelming force of the blow made Sault feel like vomiting blood once again, but his obstinate nature wouldn’t allow the Dark Knight to end a dragon-slaying venture in such a shameful manner. With a roar, the shining spearhead of his Knight Spear suddenly began to spin wildly, transforming into a vast, luminous ice disc. It looked like a giant, crystal lantern racing swiftly ahead, as if Sault was flying across the sky on the Knight Spear, aimed straight at the Ice Dragon.

The equally enraged Ice Dragon was not to be outdone. Its foot met the thrust defiantly, and the resounding clash once more laid bare the disparity in strength between them. The crisp sound of the collision drowned Sault’s groan squeezed from his chest. He was tossed high like a toy, tumbling several somersaults in the air, trying various positions yet failing to stabilize, and awkwardly crashing into the water—a memory so vivid, he would still be able to recall this glorious moment decades later.
