The Sovereign Dragon Ring

The Sovereign Dragon Ring
Episode 119's



The hot springs are bubbling. Now, Linley was at the bottom of the hot spring.


This hot spring pool is not too deep, at least about two meters. Right now, Linley pressed his body into the bottom of the pond. The tears were extremely clear, and Linley could vaguely see what was happening outside.


"Who are these people? Why were the warriors of the Radiant Church outside unable to take a single blow from them? "This thought of Linley was filled with suspicion. No matter what, at least the soldiers of the Radiant Church outside were fifth rank. Each of them had the ability to use battle-qi.


Could it be that for some reason, these soldiers were unable to use battle-qi to block that black fog?


Linley did not understand what was going on, so for the time being, he did not dare to go out and directly reject the black fog!


"Linley, black fog should be a fairly common dark style spell known as 'Corrosive Fog'. You can definitely use battle-qi to withstand the effects. "The Doehring Cowart's voice sounded in Linley's mind.


"But the warriors of the Radiant Church …"


"They should have been attacked by different spells that confused the mind, preventing them from using their battle-qi in time to defend against the spell. "This is Doehring Cowart's deduction.


"Rully, gurgle. ”


From around Linley's body, gusts of wind began to billow outwards. It was a wind-style spell, Windscout. Linley could actually sense everything that was happening outside.


"Quickly, no matter how much it costs, we have to kill Linley. "The black-clothed leader said coldly.


The other five black-robed men all nodded, heading towards the hot spring at high speed.


Right at this moment …


"Desire!"


Like an arrow, Linley shot out of the pond into the air, scattering water droplets everywhere. And then, Linley descended from above them like a ferocious tiger leaping down from the mountains, his five fingers formed into claws as he tore towards the head of one of the black-robed men.


"Hmphs. "The black-robed man's body trembled slightly, as he prepared to use his left arm to forcefully block Linley's claw attack, while stabbing with a sharp knife in his right hand.


A hint of ferocious smile appeared on Linley's face.


Suddenly, a bluish-qi-black Dragonblood battle covered Linley's right arm, which attacked with clawed hands. The battle layer of Dragonblood-qi was extremely thin. Given its thinness and the fact that the surrounding area was filled with dark 'Corrosive Fog', it was not very visible at all. Most importantly..The sharp claws suddenly emerged from where Linley's nails were located.


"Shiiiieurk!" Linley's right hand easily pierced through the black-robed man's shoulder blade. At the same time, Linley once again used the power in his right hand, giving him a fierce touch.


"Crack down!"


The entire left chest of the black-robed man exploded, spilling fresh blood everywhere. The black-robed man instantly died, but right before his death, he stared in disbelief, as his knife had pierced Linley's body but left no marks at all.


"The seventh rank Earthguard Armor is made of gemstones. Do you think jadestone is very easy to overcome? "Say Linley to himself. “Alas, aside from the layer of jadestone armor, the skin on my body can instantly turn into a Dragonblood Warrior scale. ”


Currently, when under the full Dragonblood Warrior country, Linley had the strength of a warrior of the early eighth rank.


And when using 'Dragonform', Linley had inherited the characteristic property of the Wyrm Razorback Armor; an incredible defensive power. Linley's black scales were much stronger than jadestone armor. Judging from the stab strength of the black-robed man, he was most likely an expert of the seventh rank.


Unfortunately, the defensive abilities of experts of the seventh rank were simply unable to defend against this claw attack by Linley. It was the draconic claws of the transformed Dragonblood Warrior. And moreover, this was only the state of Demidragon.


"How is that possible?" The other four black-robed men were stunned.


Based on their information, Linley was a dual-element magus of the seventh rank, and his warrior abilities were much weaker. They did not expect that a hitman of the seventh rank could not withstand a single blow from him.


"Our intelligence is wrong!" The leader of the black-robed man standing at the back cursed his heart.


But Linley only nodded mentally to himself. “It seems that when using partial transformations, one can catch opponents off guard and make them suffer serious losses. ”


"You son of a bitch Shadows !" Furious roars could be heard from outside, traveling at high speed towards Hot Springs Park. Linley understood that another group of Knights of the Radiant Church charged with his protection had arrived. Only ten or so people were killed earlier, while the total number of his guards numbered over a hundred.


The expression on the black-robed man's face changed.


"No matter the cost, kill Linley!" The black-robed leader shouted.


And then he led the four remaining black-robed men to surround and attack Linley. The black blades in their hands gleamed with a dark aura, as they seemed to have inserted every last bit of their strength into the blades in their hands.


An attack that they willingly gave up their own lives to make!


"Soldiers of the seventh rank, right?"


Seeing the attack of this group of black-robed men, Linley did not dodge or hide at all. With his right hand, Linley touched his waist gently. Suddenly ….


A cold, fierce, and brilliant violet light flashed.


At the same time, Linley retreated at high speed towards the back. Of the five people who attacked Linley, four remained in their original place, while the fifth, the leader, hurriedly retreated at high speed.


"Shirrrrrrrrrrrk!"


The stomachs of the four black-robed men were sliced open. Their stomachs and intestines fell to the ground, and blood spurted everywhere.


"Quickly. And sharp. "The leader of the black-robed man stared in astonishment at Linley.


One sword attack killed four soldiers of the seventh rank. This example is really too scary.


Linley knew very well just how sharp this Bloodviolet Godsword was, but based only on Bloodviolet's natural sharpness alone, it might be difficult to break through the defense of a magical beast of the seventh rank. Similarly, if a warrior of the seventh rank was to use battle-qi to protect his body, at most, Linley would only be able to injure them, not kill them.


But back then, the four black-robed men had used up all the energy on their attacks!


They did not expect Linley to have such a sword on him.


“If I want to increase the power of Bloodviolet, I will have to activate it through my Dragonblood-qi battle. But if I were to use Dragonblood-qi combat, Bloodviolet's speed would be slower than if I used my wind-style mageforce to activate it. "At this time, Linley was considering the pros and cons of each.


Back then, it was true that Linley had used a single attack to kill the four of them.


What he relied on was his astonishing speed, an attack so fast that his opponents could not respond to it!


But just relying on his speed and sword sharpness was generally only enough to kill a warrior of the sixth rank, or to injure a warrior of the seventh rank. Only if warriors of the seventh rank acted like these four assassins and concentrated all their battle-qi on their attacks, not caring about their lives and leaving nothing for defense, would they be able to do so, he will be able to kill them.


“But the leader did not suffer much injury. "Linley looked at the leader of the black-robed man.


The strength of this black-robed man had most likely surpassed the seventh rank.


Using wind-style mageforce in Bloodviolet could make Bloodviolet move faster and make her movements smoother. But it could not increase the attack power! But if he used the Dragonblood battle-qi in Bloodviolet, he could increase the attack power but would not be able to increase his attack speed.


An angry roar exploded right outside the Hot Springs Park. Clearly, these Knights of the Radiant Church had just seen the corpses of their friends and were all furious now.


"Linley, you're even tougher than we thought you were. But unfortunately, you sided with the Radiant Church. So ... "The black-robed leader didn't seem to pay any attention at all to those outside, as he spoke in a soft voice to Linley.


The black-robed leader's voice seemed to bring a certain unique timbre to it. At first, Linley saw nothing, but by the time the black-robed man was halfway through his words, Linley could feel his mind grow a little blurry and wavering his focus.


"You must die!"


The black blade of the black-robed man arrived almost instantly on Linley's chest.


"Linley!" Doehring Cowart's mental roar echoed in Linley's mind, instantly bringing Linley back to his senses.


"Interests!"


The black-robed leader stared at his waist in astonishment. His waist suddenly nearly two were bitten. His exposed muscles were still trembling, and blood was flowing profusely. The black-robed man could clearly feel that his entire body was losing all strength. His life force was quickly exhausted.


"Shadowmouse this …"


The black-robed leader stared foolishly at the black Shadowmouse on Linley's side.


The black shadowmouse should at least be a magical beast of the third or fourth rank. For this black-robed leader, as a warrior of the eighth rank, a black Shadowmouse should not be able to injure him at all. This was why the black-robed leader did not notice him.


But…


Right at that moment, the little black Shadowmouse flew over, quickly turning its jaw into a larger size, then took out a gigantic and ferocious bite from its waist.


"Hmph! Let's get cocky now. You must consider it an honor to have died at my hands, Bebe. Bebe stood near the corpse of the black-robed leader, his little head raised proudly.


Linley could not help but laugh.


Bebe was a strange creature that could even withstand the dying final blow of the Wyrm Razorback Armor. Bebe was able to bite and destroy the enormous formidable Velocidragon scales of the eighth rank! In terms of attack and defense, Bebe was now extremely powerful.


The only drawback is .. its size is too small.


Even if Bebe was able to bite the giant magical beast, Bebe might not be able to fully chew on the thick large scales or skin on a single bite.


"!"


Those Radiant Church Knights howled furiously charged to Linley's side. As they prepared to battle with their opponents.


"Sir, are you okay?" The knight leader immediately asked.


Right now, Linley's appearance was extremely frightening. His face and body were covered in blood.


"I'm fine . I only suffered a few minor injuries. "Say Linley. "You threw away the body. I'll take a break. "As he spoke, Linley immediately walked out of the Hot Springs Garden. And now, as the knights lowered their heads to stare at the corpses, they could not help but start frowning.


The corpse of the black-robed leader disappeared half of his waist, as if it had been bitten, or perhaps cut by a claw.


The other four black-robed assassins had been cut in half, while to the latter, it seemed as if his left chest had completely exploded, exposing his bones.


"What ... how …"


The group of knights stared stupidly, their jaws slacking off. They did not imagine that Linley, a magus, could cause his enemy to die like this.


………


On the upper level of the Radiant Temple.


The long and skinny form of the Holy Emperor was covered in a long robe of silver whiteness. He lay down on a chair, casually opening up a few books. His bald head shone like the sun.


"Holy Emperor. ”The red-robed Guillermo bowed obediently in front of him.


"Hmm?" The Holy Emperor moved his eyelids, glancing at Guillermo.


Being noticed by the Holy Emperor was like being under the pressure of a thirty thousand pound rock. Guillermo respectfully said, "Holy Emperor, just now, the Cult of Shadows made an assassination attempt on Linley. But fortunately, Linley's ability as a warrior was quite profound. He managed to kill all the attackers, only suffering minor injuries. ”


"Kill them?"


The Holy Emperor looked at Guillermo with jade blue eyes. With a light laugh, he said, "Guillermo, the Cult of Shadows realizes that Linley is a two-element magus of the seventh rank. Could it be that they did not send in a sufficiently competent army? "


"Sacred Emperor, this group of assassins is quite powerful. The leader of the assassins must also become a specialist in using mind-bewitching dark-style magic. "Guillermo hurriedly said.


The Holy Emperor did not say anything more, only smiling faintly as he looked at Guillermo.


"Guillermo, did you apply …. ? ”


Guillermo. "really. Linley was an important individual who needed to be well trained by the Radiant Church. More importantly, not only did Linley have high natural talent, he was also a very hard worker. I believe that after fifty more years, it is very likely that Linley will become a Saint-level fighter. And in a hundred years …. Linley would become one of the rank-level Saint warriors of the Yulan continent. ”


If a man does not prepare for the future, his gifts will be full of problems.


Both the Radiant Church and the Cult of Shadows had existed for many years now. Even when the Yulan Empire unified the Yulan continent, they existed.


The reason they could last so long, was because they both understood the importance of one thing: Growing talent!


Constantly developing, constantly converting believers, constantly developing talent.


Perhaps now, Linley was not too powerful, but a century later? Perhaps he would become an individual that was close to the level of a Holy Emperor. To a Saint-level warrior, a hundred years was nothing.


"That's why I hope Linley receives better instructions, as well as better protection. In other words ... I hope Linley goes to train with Lord 'Fallen Leaf'. "Kata Guillermo's.


"Fallen Leaf?"


The Holy Emperor was surprised, but then he nodded. "All right then . But first, you have to go look for his approval. I certainly cannot make a decision on behalf of Fallen Leaf. ”


"Yes, Holy Emperor. ”


Guillermo saluted and left.


The Holy Emperor glanced at Guillermo who left with jade blue eyes, and then looked at the sky outside the window. “He killed all the attackers? Baruch.. Baruch.hrm It seems that the Baruch clan is one of the Four Supreme Warriors. The Dragonblood Warrior Clan.
