Chapter 1290: Chapter 1292: Pursuit Chapter 1290: Chapter 1292: Pursuit Among these undead monsters, only these two Bone Dragons could fly. Song Jian looked at the two Bone Dragons, a strange smile on his face, as if he had seen something particularly amusing.
“This is the Dragon Bone Wasteland, the Dragon Clan's final resting place, and you dare to turn the Dragon Clan's skeletons into undead creatures? You're simply courting death…” Song Jian thought to himself. He even felt the urge to pull out a camera to capture this scene.
If the Giant Dragons serving as priests in the Divine Dragon Temple found out about this, they probably wouldn't need Song Jian to lift a finger. They would come flying over in a furious rage and scatter the soul of this Necromancer so that it couldn't even be reincarnated.
Whoosh whoosh~
Two balls of thick green Dragon Breath flew towards Song Jian, tracing a green streak through the air and filling it with a faint corrosive smell.
Song Jian fluttered his wings and easily dodged the two attacks. The breath of a Bone Dragon was quite different from that of a true Giant Dragon. The former was like a gas bomb, while the true Giant Dragon's breath was like a flame thrower, chasing you relentlessly, no matter how you tried to dodge. Both the power and the psychological pressure it exerted were many times greater than that of a Bone Dragon's breath.
With a flap of his wings, Song Jian charged at the two Bone Dragons at an incredible speed. His Sky-breaking Sword struck fiercely onto the body of a Bone Dragon, but the sword met strong resistance and penetrated less than an inch into the bone, which was harder than metal.
“Hehehe, to engage in close combat with a Bone Dragon, I admire your courage…” The Necromancer watching from a distance chuckled as he saw Song Jian charge towards the Bone Dragons: “Although they're just over a hundred years old, after my refinement, their bodies are even more robust than those of thousand-year-old Giant Dragons. How could your sword possibly cleave through their bodies?”
Song Jian and the two Bone Dragons tangled in the sky. He discovered that aside from the instinctual long-range attack of their poisonous Dragon Breath, these Bone Dragons seemed incapable of casting any other Dragon magic. They relied solely on their robust bodies to fight with Song Jian.
“Without those Dragon spells, you two Bone Dragons aren't much stronger than those large lizards apart from the ability to fly…” Song Jian thought to himself.
In reality, true Bone Dragons would learn unique necromantic spells as their strength and rank increased, like the Aging Barrier and Death Ray, for instance. If any flesh and blood creatures dared to get close to them, within just a few minutes, their flesh would wither and they would turn into a pile of bones.
These two Bone Dragons in front of him were still immature members of the Dragon Clan with undeveloped strengths. Turning them into undead creatures did not allow them to inherit the unique talents of the Dragon Clan. They could only rely on their strong bodies to fight. Their true combat strength was, in fact, not much different from the skeletal behemoths on the ground.
After gauging the capabilities of the two Bone Dragons, Song Jian lost the patience to tangle with them any further. With a thought, he executed the Thousand Swords Art.
The scorching Red Lotus Karma Fire illuminated half the sky, its terrifying fiery aura causing the Necromancer standing beneath the statue to show a look of horror on his face.
“How can there be such a terrifying sense of threat, what, what kind of fire is this!” The Necromancer couldn't help but take two steps back, the sensation of facing a natural enemy causing him to tremble all over, the thought of retreating already surfacing in his mind.
Red Lotus Karma Fire is the natural enemy of all undead creatures, suppressing them inherently by its rank, and this gap cannot simply be bridged by numbers.
The two Bone Dragons also felt an instinctive fear, and their previously fierce momentum immediately weakened. After floating in the air for a moment, they began to retreat slowly. Although controlled by the Necromancer, their bodies instinctively moved backward.
The skeleton behemoths on the ground, originally eager to tear Song Jian to shreds, now lay prostrate one by one, some even starting to burrow into the hillside.
From a distance, Tang Li couldn't help but rub his eyes at the sight before him. The strength of the other party was inscrutable to him; the level was skeletal, with no specific numbers visible, but judging from the previous battle with the two bone dragons, it seemed that the other party's strength wasn't much higher than his.
However, he hadn't expected that everything before had been like an illusion. It was only when the other party truly revealed their strength that Tang Li abruptly realized that all he was now seeing seemed like an illusion as well.
Inside the Dragon God Hall, several Dragon Priests stared at the slightly distorted light screen in the air, anger surfacing on each of their faces.
“Damn it, we thought it was just a little bug, but we didn't expect it to be so audacious, daring to sacrilege the dragon's corpse…”
“I want to tear it into a million pieces, rip out its soul, and roast it in Dragon Breath for ten thousand years!”
The angry roar of the Dragon Priests shook the entire Dragon God Hall with a thunderous rumble. A muscular man in armor even stood up, unable to wait to kill this necromancer.
“Tatinum, what are you about to do?” the elder with white hair stared at the standing Dragon Priest and asked aloud.
“Elder, I want to obliterate this bastard who has desecrated the corpses of the Dragon Clan…” Tatinum bellowed loudly.
“Sit down!” the Dragon Priest elder said angrily: “This guy has been in the Dragon Bone Wasteland for over a hundred years. He has managed to survive this long under the surveillance of the Dragon Soul Guard; he is not that easy to find…”
“This time, because of that human's arrival, this filthy and hateful creature has revealed himself. If any of you were to go now, he would surely shrink back, as he has done before, and we would not be able to find a trace of him…”
“Be patient, let's see how Kamata's battle companion deals with it. Perhaps, he will surprise us…”
At this moment, on the Dragon Bone Wasteland, countless spirit swords, burning with dark red flames, fell onto the skeleton behemoths on the ground like torrential rain. Explosions echoed everywhere. The two bone dragons in the sky were surrounded and relentlessly slashed by over a dozen spirit swords. The Red Lotus Karma Fire, along with the slashes of the spirit swords, began to spread on them. Dark red flames started to gnaw and burn their bones. The two bone dragons could no longer focus on attacking Song Jian, rolling and screeching wildly in the air trying to extinguish the flames that clung to them, but the fire did not die out, instead slowly spreading across their bodies.
The Necromancer glared fiercely at Song Jian for a few moments, then turned and walked towards the large hole beneath the statued altar. Soon, his figure disappeared into the layers of underground structures.
Song Jian's gaze remained fixed on the Necromancer. Seeing him flee into the underground complex, Song Jian didn't hesitate and leaped toward the huge opening, flying in.
