A huge black shadow finally emerged from the hole.
Copperfield looked over. It was a flame dragon with a dark red body.
Its huge head was panting hard. Due to the high temperature of the dragon’s breath, white steam constantly came out of its nostrils and mouth when its breath came into contact with air.
Its four limbs were on the ground. Its body was as strong as a cougar that Copperfield had seen in his previous life, but it was many times larger than a cougar.
Its sharp spine undulated with the dragon’s breath. Its scales flickered with a metallic luster. Its tail was long and winding, and at the end of the tail was a hammer-shaped bone weapon covered with barbs.
A dangerous gaze was fixed on Copperfield.
Copperfield’s adrenaline surged as he ran for his life, and he did not notice the changes in his body.
After Copperfield had settled down, it was at this moment when a searing sensation suddenly spread throughout Copperfield’s entire body.
Copperfield instantly reacted. It was the flame crystal that had just been embedded into Elegy!
“What a dense energy…” Copperfield sighed. Suddenly, his expression changed once again. The heat waves within his body had increased as the soul power within Copperfield’s body surged continuously.
At the start, Copperfield was still barely able to use his body to absorb the fire-type soul power.
However, when the soul power stored within Copperfield’s body had reached a critical point, the fire-type soul power within his body continued to increase.
Copperfield’s skin was gradually turning red. The fire-type soul power continued to spread out from Copperfield’s body, forming a soul power cyclone.
The clothes on Copperfield’s body, which had been drenched in sweat, gradually dried up. Red blood vessels gradually appeared on Copperfield’s face. He continuously exhaled scorching hot air from his mouth, just like the giant dragon in front of him, as he panted, wisps of white steam rose from his mouth.
Upon seeing this, the giant dragon, who was staring fixedly at Copperfield, became even angrier. This was something that only he could have absorbed, yet it had been absorbed by this human in front of him.
With this in mind, the dragon let out an explosive roar. Its strong and powerful limbs stomped hard on the ground. It spread its wings and instantly dashed towards Copperfield.
Nameless, who was standing beside Copperfield, took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of him.
“Dong!”
The dragon’s sharp claws collided with the battle shield. Smoke and dust flew everywhere. Nameless was forced back a distance. His battle boots drew two huge scratches on the hard volcanic rock before he finally stopped in front of Copperfield.
Copperfield was trying his best to control the raging fire-type soul power in his body, so he didn’t notice it.
After the Flame Crystal was absorbed and Elegy was embedded, Nameless’ battle shield and axe appeared slightly different from before. There was a faint dark red flame clinging to them.
The dragon’s sharp claws collided with Nameless’ large shield. Only then did he feel that there was something wrong with this human who was wearing pitch-black armor.
His entire body was shrouded in black smoke. Although his soul power was not as powerful as the dragon’s, he was able to make the dragon feel a chill that originated from the depths of his soul.
“Ah!”
Copperfield’s fire-type soul power was already unable to be suppressed. With a loud roar, he instantly took out his Soul Slayer. With a tap of his feet, he charged towards the dragon.
Without waiting for the giant dragon to make its next move, a terrifying soul power undulation instantly came from behind Nameless. He focused his gaze on it.
It was a blood-red two-handed giant sword. The fire-type soul power on it was so dense that it seemed as if there were real flames burning on the body of the sword.
The sword’s momentum was like a rainbow as it slashed towards the giant dragon.
Copperfield’s entire body was surrounded by fire-type soul power so dense that it was almost corporeal. The flames carried an aura of death as the two types of soul power converged together.
At this moment, Copperfield seemed like a demonic god in the eyes of the dragon!
“?”
“What’s going on? This human has at most swallowed one Flame Crystal. Even if he had swallowed ten of them, he wouldn’t have been able to refine his fire-type soul power to such a level!”
Without waiting for the giant dragon to think further, Copperfield’s sword had already arrived in front of it.
“Bang!”
A massive explosion sounded out.
The enormous force transmitted from his arm caused Copperfield to instantly fly backward.
Smoke and dust flew in all directions. After the smoke dispersed, a stream of fresh blood slowly flowed down from the corner of Copperfield’s mouth.
On the other side, the dragon’s condition wasn’t any better.
Under Copperfield’s soul power that had almost materialized due to how dense it was, the giant dragon’s enormous body couldn’t help but fall backward as well. In the end, it heavily smashed into the volcanic rock behind it, causing numerous cracks to spread across the hard volcanic rock.
Copperfield could only feel the blood and oxygen within his body churning as he supported his beheading soul on the ground. Then, he forcefully stood up from the ground. Just as he was about to step forward, he heard a loud sound from in front of him.
“Wait a minute, wait a minute, don’t attack yet.”
Copperfield’s pupils were startled. Could it be that the giant dragon opposite him was speaking?
Copperfield focused his eyes and looked over. When that ear-splitting sound rang out, the giant dragon’s mouth was indeed opening and closing continuously.
“The soul power in your body is surging right now. If you don’t suppress it, I’m afraid you won’t be far from death.”
“That Flame Crystal had originally been mine. As long as you return something of equal value to me, I can forgive you.”
After saying that, the giant dragon also took the opportunity to lie down. It leaned against the rock wall behind it and no longer showed any signs of wanting to attack.
After hearing what the dragon had said, Copperfield also didn’t have the time to think too much.
Immediately, he sat down cross-legged and channeled the boundless fire-type soul power out of his body.
Seeing that Copperfield was truly no longer attacking, the giant dragon relaxed his heart.
Even with Copperfield’s current state, the giant dragon was unable to kill him in a short period of time. What’s more, there was still another black knight standing beside him that was emitting a terrifying aura.
It was merely a piece of flame crystal. It wasn’t like he had never eaten it before. If only he could find out how that human had managed to refine the fire-type soul power in his body to such a level, so what if he gave away that piece of flame crystal?
Moreover, looking at the aura on this human’s body, he was at most at the power of a two-star high-tier. After it had time to recover, he wouldn’t pose much of a threat to him.
Most importantly, the giant dragon had been in a state of rage just now and had forgotten about the thunder clouds hovering above the Magical Beasts Mountain Range. Now that he raised his head to look, the fluctuations of the thunderclouds above were still terrifying.
“After you suppress the soul power in your body, come find me in the cave.”
“You owe me a Flame Crystal. If you run away, I’ll definitely not let you off so easily.”
After saying this, the dragon quickly went back into the cave. It posed almost no threat to Copperfield.
