A Dragon against the Whole World

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

A series of wounds continuously appeared on Galos’ massive body.

On his legs, shoulder blades, even the side of his neck, on the face armor... all deep enough to see the bones.

The warriors of the Northern Legion watched in fear and trepidation, the dragons let out anxious low roars, while the Southern Legion’s morale soared, believing the scales of victory were rapidly tipping.

Yet, the Red Iron Dragon showed no signs of weakness at all.

Dragon Blood flowed out, turned into flames, and was then absorbed back into his body, transforming back into fresh blood.

During this process, his aura indeed grew weaker, but only slightly.

Kairos had skills to inhibit regeneration, and he had already used them, but the blood transformation of the Red Iron Dragon was not ordinary regeneration, the Sword Saint’s inhibitory effect was minimal.

Meanwhile, the Red Iron Dragon was retaliating with a frenzy.

His Dragon Wings fluttered wildly, leaving countless afterimages in the sky.

He had already showcased a four-arm form, attacking with an extraordinary frenzy, four arms, Dragon Wings, claws, Dragon Tail... each attack landed on Kairos’ domain, causing it to crack.

Especially the Red Iron Dragon’s Dragon Wings.

They were a true pair of deadly weapons.

Not only were they the source of speed and impact, they seemed like giant invincible war blades, sometimes slicing down like celestial knives, creating giant cracks in the Sword Saint’s domain, sometimes blocking sword light like barriers, colliding head-on with the Light-Seeking Sword, though sliced through, quickly recovering with the surge of Dragon Qi.

Before this, Kairos had never heard of any dragon developing their wings to this extent.

But even now, he remained composed.

"This fellow is in some sort of explosive state, it won’t last long."

"For now, it’s just a futile struggle."

Kairos believed that he still held the advantage.

And as time passed, the battle devolved into a brutal war of attrition.

The Unfinished Sword and the King of Molten Iron fought from the ground to the sky, then from the sky back to the earth, leaving devastation wherever they went.

Relying on his impeccable domain and masterful sword techniques, Kairos continually added scars to the Red Iron Dragon.

Galos relied on the terrifying power and defense offered by the Red Lotus state, extreme mobility granted by Dragon Qi wings, and the astonishing endurance and recovery provided by blood transformation to withstand the Sword Saint’s attacks, constantly seeking opportunities to counterstrike.

After some time.

The Red Iron Dragon’s body was entirely covered in blood, flames engulfed his entire body, burning furiously, while the Sword Saint appeared unchanged, not even a speck of dust on him, let alone wounds.

However, only Kairos knew that he had already expended nearly half of his energy.

The domain was so powerful that maintaining it wasn’t exactly easy, and among the legendaries, Sword Saints were not known for prolonged combat.

Now, he was no longer entirely resisting the King of Molten Iron’s attacks, but selectively evading them.

Nevertheless, Kairos had no intention of halting the battle.

With the domain present, he stood in an undefeatable position, as long as he monitored his energy expenditure.

Slash!

He swung the Sun-Chasing Sword, targeting a weak point, the sword light leaving a bone-deep scar on the right side of the Red Iron Dragon’s neck.

The Red Iron Dragon’s counterattack arrived simultaneously, his body spun, right wing bursting into overwhelming flames, heavily striking the Sword Saint’s domain.

Cracks multiplied, the domain shook.

Kairos used offense as defense, his gaze solemn, striking again.

Several prominent sword lights shredded the air, piercing the Red Iron Dragon’s scale armor, leaving deep blood holes.

The Red Iron Dragon roared, disregarding the new sword injuries on him, his dragon mouth opening to unleash condensed Destructive Dragon Breath at its limit, ferociously pounding against the domain.

Crunch... a dense sound of shattering echoed.

A crack more pronounced than any before blossomed on the domain.

The Destructive Dragon Breath pushed the domain hundreds of meters away, burning through, turning a corner of the Sword Saint’s clothes to ashes and a strand of his hair to dust.

Although the dragon breath was swiftly dispelled and the domain cracks rapidly healed.

But it was undoubtedly a dangerous signal.

Kairos’ gaze turned completely icy.

He realized that he couldn’t delay any longer.

This Red Iron Dragon’s level of tenacity far exceeded any opponent he had faced in his battle career, his resilience, recovery ability and offensiveness reaching an unimaginable level.

He had already begun to treat him as a legendary creature.

"I must finish this quickly!"

"Otherwise, he’ll wear me out."

"His state seems like some kind of burst, but it’s lasting way too long, I can’t see its limit."

Kairos took a deep breath.

His domain brightened up, countless sword glows converged toward the Light-Seeking Sword, gathering a sharper brilliance than the sun at its blade tip, these gleams further compressed, condensed to a point on the sword edge, exuding an invincible feeling.

Overloading the domain was a life-consuming skill.

This strike would shorten Kairos’s lifespan by at least twenty years, hence, he was unwilling to use a skill like this unless absolutely necessary.

Before this, he never thought he could be forced to such an extent by a non-legendary creature.

"Dying under my sword will be your honor."

Kairos’ gaze was cold, the brilliancy on the sword edge growing ever sharper, so much so that the surrounding space continued to crack, fracturing like a mirror.

He had not yet swung his sword.

But already, countless Sword Qi spontaneously spawned around the Red Iron Dragon, leaving shallow scratches on his body.

Galos’ gaze turned solemn.
