Chapter 1155: Dragon Skeleton
October 11, 2017
Luoyang, within the Abandoned Dragon Locking Temple!
After a brief respite and a breakthrough, Lu Hai Kong turned back to continue the bloodless slaughter.
As he reaped the psychic energy from his victims, Lu Hai Kong also refined the Overlord's Axe technique, a truly satisfying endeavor.
However, considering he had only a few months to eliminate these Malevolent Spirits, Lu Hai Kong decided to venture deeper into the dungeon, aiming to clear it and leave sooner.
Indeed, this dungeon was an excellent place, especially for enhancing psychic energy, which was an unbeatable opportunity.
But Lu Hai Kong's psychic energy growth had almost reached its peak. If he continued at this rate, he would overtax himself in just a few days, not months. In fact, Lu Hai Kong already felt that he hadn't fully absorbed all the psychic energy from the Malevolent Spirits he had slain.
Only a small portion of the psychic energy was refined and integrated into his own, while a significant amount was stored elsewhere.
Some of it flowed into Lu Hai Kong's Marquis Artifact, the Emperor Cauldron, which also served as his symbol of royalty. Another portion, in a way Lu Hai Kong couldn't comprehend, found its way to the two little girls fighting at his home.
If not for the three of them, Lu Hai Kong's psyche would have been overwhelmed long ago, despite its resilience. After all, the weakest Malevolent Spirit here was at level 80, and their psychic energy far surpassed his. Even if Lu Hai Kong only absorbed a tiny bit from each, he would have been overwhelmed after a few hundred.
Nevertheless, Lu Hai Kong was gradually approaching his limit, and he had no choice but to speed up.
The idea of leaving to refine the psychic energy and then returning was practically impossible.
This dungeon had a time restriction. If Lu Hai Kong left, he would have to wait a whole year before re-entering. He didn't have that kind of time to spare, so he had to clear the dungeon as quickly as possible.
Under Lu Hai Kong's relentless attacks, the Malevolent Spirits couldn't hinder his progress. Finally, he began inching closer to the center of the Dragon Locking Temple.
The Malevolent Spirits seemed to understand Lu Hai Kong's intent. They realized he was no longer just slaughtering them but was determined to reach the temple's center.
Witnessing this, the Malevolent Spirits retreated, making way for this formidable opponent.
With the Malevolent Spirits' fear and retreat, Lu Hai Kong advanced deeper into the temple with ease. The further he went, the stronger the stench of decay became.
At the same time, Lu Hai Kong sensed a powerful, ancient emotion of unwillingness permeating the area.
This sensation caused Lu Hai Kong to hesitate momentarily. He vaguely felt that this dungeon might not be as simple as it seemed.
Indeed, when Lu Hai Kong reached the center of the Dragon Locking Temple and laid eyes on the massive figure within, his entire body, from head to toe, tingled with unease.
Thanks to Lu Hai Kong's formidable 99 Martial Arts and his level 3 Heaven's Eye Technique,
In the darkness, Lu Hai Kong's vision was incredibly sharp, and his night vision was even more exceptional.
Within the dimly lit space, Lu Hai Kong clearly saw the massive skeleton before him.
At first glance, he instantly recognized it as the remains of a dragon over a hundred meters long, its death an extremely tragic one.
The dragon's skeleton was nearly pitch-black all over, riddled with countless tiny holes that seemed to have been corroded, a sight that would make anyone with trypophobia shudder. Dozens of broken iron chains hung nearby, and beneath the dragon lay a layer of dried, black, unidentified substance.
As Lu Hai Kong witnessed this scene, he vaguely imagined a divine dragon, poisoned and struggling in its final moments.
Despite its desperate struggles and wails, the terrifying poison slowly seeped into its bloodstream, spreading through its veins and gradually corroding its flesh. It melted the chains binding it, turning it into a skeletal dragon, causing it to die a slow and agonizing death.
As Lu Hai Kong sensed this illusion, a nearly tangible aura of resentment and unwillingness accompanied a roar that seemed to echo through the ages.
Lu Hai Kong felt a tremor in his ears, followed by an overwhelming pressure far beyond his comprehension, pressing down on him.
Instantly, Lu Hai Kong spat out a mouthful of blood.
A dragon, dead for an unknown duration, unleashed its final roar filled with resentment, causing Lu Hai Kong, who had been on a rapid growth trajectory, to sustain severe injuries. His current strength, which had significantly increased, was now on par with Pei Yuan Qing, whom he had encountered earlier.
