The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

“I don’t know your names, but please believe that before Loona and I exhaust our strength, no one can take your lives away! Show your true strength to the fullest. This is my promise to you as a King Healer, to fight alongside you to the very end!”

Having said that, David Jones flicked his right finger, and over a dozen Class V Essence-Condensing Elixirs and Energy-increasing Elixirs were crushed into clusters of essence by his Arcane Force.

“Moon-Devouring Longevity!”

Due to the impact of the Empty Zone, Loona’s connection with the Heavenly Constellations was relatively indistinct, preventing her from summoning the myriad of starlights to slow down time in the vicinity. However, she could still use her skill on the elixirs to prolong their effectiveness.

“Instant Teleportation.”

Rainbow acted on thought, and clusters of elixir essence instantly appeared before the noses of the Earth Demon Guards, absorbed into their bodies with violent breaths.

“We shall not let you down, sir!”

Sensing the ghost force surging within their bodies, the Earth Demon Guards raised their long spears, glanced at their comrades beside them, and a fierce will to fight erupted in their eyes.

“Sacred Dragon Reversal Circle, ignite!”

Death would be the result of failure anyway. To seize a slim chance of survival, the group of Earth Demon Guards decided to trust David Jones. By putting themselves in a do-or-die situation, they channeled all their ghost force into the transformation of the Circle Map.

“Boom, boom, boom!” Thunderous booms erupted out of nowhere.

The amalgamated military formation suddenly vibrated with countless streaks of light, transforming into a pale-colored Divine Dragon that landed behind Lynn Lindwood. It shone with bright golden brilliance, elevating Lynn’s Cultivation from the medium phase of the Ghost Emperor’s apex to the later phase, and then she surged to the peak of the Ghost Emperor!

A ferociously piercing thunderous power suddenly radiated from the halberd in Lynn’s hands as if it could penetrate everything.

As a consequence, the Earth Demon Guards, who originally regained color on their faces, were struck hard, turning pale as their ghost force drained away like a waterfall under the manipulation of the Reversal Circle.

“If it weren’t for the abundance of elixirs I refined, coupled with Loona’s Starlight Infusion that enhances vitality and extends life expectancy, every single one of these Ghost King Elites would have died here!”

David Jones, suppressing his heartache, took out another dozen or so Essence-Condensing Elixirs from his Star Ring and crushed them.

Now was not the time to consider gains or losses. If the Earth Demon Guards were to be completely decimated, there would be no Ghost King Elites to deploy the military formation to shield him from the erosion of the Empty Zone.

“Starlight Infusion at full power; don’t let these brave warriors who risk their lives die!”

“Meh!” (No problem!)

Loona’s Dragon Scales gradually shifted from deep purple to a gleaming light pink, and the quality and quantity of the starlight enveloping the Earth Demon Guards far surpassed that of before.

“Final Attack of Thunder Halberd, Star Piercing Flow!”

Lynn Lindwood bellowed, and the sound echoed like a dull thunder. Her halberd suddenly transformed into Star Attack, devouring the surrounding ghost force, causing even the space covered by the Empty Zone to ripple.

“Boom!”

A flash of thunderous aurora passed, and the massive Star Attack, as thick as a mountain and hundreds of meters in diameter, pierced through the vast body of the Void Calamity, blasting a hole thousands of meters long.

The rampant thunder even spread along the blood fissures to the head of the Void Calamity.

The sensation of imminent death turned its eyes blood-red.

“Now, Boundless Demon Refining!”

Lornaa let out a delicate shout, and the eighty-one black rays in her palm transformed into dragons chasing each other in a swirling dance, conjuring complex and mysterious fluctuations between heaven and earth, a force of Law only a Ghost Immortal could invoke and condense.

With the power of a Venerable ghost implement and the aid of a secret path Mystic Arts, Lornaa demonstrated a portion of the might belonging to a Ghost Immortal elite.

Within the Demon Refining Circle, an immense pillar of light descended from the sky, engulfing the colossal body of the Void Calamity, submerging it completely.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

Lynn Lindwood staggered back hundreds of meters, spitting out blood, her dark golden halberd falling powerlessly to the ground.

At the same time, the Earth Demon Guards, having deactivated the Sacred Dragon Reversal Circle, collapsed on the ground with weakened knees, their breathing growing faint.

Only Lornaa still retained most of her combat strength, her beautiful eyes intently fixed on the constantly spinning Boundless Demon-refining Circle, until the silhouette of calamity within the Demonic Reflecting Mirror disappeared, at which point she couldn’t help but exhale turbid air.

“Bad luck indeed, but fortunately, we’ve managed to get through it in the end!”

As a servant of the Unborn Void God, the Void Calamity usually emerged only when the Unborn Void God itself descended, a demonic beast terrifically formidable that even Ghost Immortal elites struggled to confront.

Thankfully, the Void Calamity they faced was merely a juvenile, its strength not yet at the apex, unable to exhibit the true terror of its kind. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have had even a slight chance to resist!

With this in mind, Lornaa turned her head to glance at David Jones, a flicker of appreciation in her eyes.

In this battle, David Jones’s performance far exceeded her expectations.

If it weren’t for David Jones noticing the stealth attack of the Void Calamity, using Instant Teleportation to whisk her away from the attack, allowing her to charge the Immeasurable Demon Refining Circle undisturbed, and providing timely healing to the Earth Demon Guard, enabling Lynn to maintain the benefits of the battle formation throughout, the outcome of this battle would have been uncertain, with many more Earth Demon Guards perishing.

Unconcerned with Lornaa’s gaze, after confirming the death of the Void Calamity, David Jones began treating the critically endangered Earth Demon Guards with Loona to avoid further casualties in their ranks.

“Severe corruption by domain energy, beyond the help of any elixir, what a pity.”

As David Jones’s voice fell, an Earth Demon Guard next to him closed his eyes tightly, and his spear thrust violently through a comrade showing signs of demonization.

“Just one battle and we’ve lost a good ten Ghost King Elites, with four Ghost Kings undergoing mutation. The death rate adds up to almost a quarter of the team!”

David Jones sighed inwardly, turning his head to look at Lynn’s distressed face, unable to conceal the pain in her eyes.

“Thank you, sir, for your assistance. If you ever need help, feel free to ask, and I shall not hesitate!” Lynn’s expression was complex.

Hard feelings aside, the fact that David Jones intervened at the critical moment, preserving the lives of the vast majority of her soldiers, was a favor she had to acknowledge.

“We’re all grasshoppers on the same string, there’s no such thing as helping or not helping,” David Jones replied, shaking his head slightly.

Since he had accepted the protection of Princess Lornaa and joined the ranks of the Earth Demon Guards, he was duty-bound to contribute to the team.

With a wave of her slender hand, Lornaa dissipated the Demon Refining light beam, and from a chasm thousands of kilometers in diameter, a pitch-black Crystal wafted out.

Lornaa generously suggested, “This time, it’s thanks to your help that we could kill this vile creature. Let’s split this Void Calamity Crystal among the three of us!”

Having said this, she turned her head to look at Theodore, “Brother King, what do you think?”

Theodore: “I have no objections.”

“Demonic Mysterious Beasts are inherently highly infectious. Can we really use this Crystal spawned by the beast without any repercussions?”

David Jones, with many such concerns, activated his Illusion-Piercing Eye; he certainly didn’t want to be demonized over a mere trifle.
