Chapter 139: The Three-Headed Black Dragon and the Mystical Spirit Fruit
At first, when John saw Sara coming to his aid, he felt a flicker of gratitude.
But upon hearing her words, he was left feeling helpless.
Sure enough, Sara still intended to see him dead.
Boom! Boom!
Thunderous explosions echoed through the air as lightning flashed and magic surged.
Sara and the three-headed black dragon were evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand quickly.
"Sara, I'll help you!" John didn't take the opportunity to flee. Instead, he launched an attack on the three-headed black dragon.
An eighth-tier legendary beast was undoubtedly powerful, but John had an ace up his sleeve: true damage.
Especially after upgrading Overwhelming Battle Energy, he had unlocked the skill Drunken Moon, which inflicted an additional 10% true damage.
Though John's attacks couldn't break through the three-headed black dragon's defenses, they could still deal over 67,000 points of true damage, causing the dragon considerable pain. Whoosh!
Suddenly, a fireball hurtled toward John.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the flames erupted, and, unsurprisingly, John was instantly killed again, triggering his Undying and Immortal talent.
He resurrected with full health and quickly fled the battlefield, realizing that even while being entangled by Sara, the three-headed black dragon could still strike at him.
This encounter gave him a true sense of the dragon's immense power.
The three-headed black dragon wielded magic from three different elements and possessed an incredibly tough physical body. The most terrifying aspect was its three heads, which coordinated their attacks as if they were three separate eighth-tier powerhouses!
Soon, Sara found herself in a perilous situation, struggling under the relentless pressure. Crack! Crack!
Purple lightning crackled as Sara was sent flying, a trickle of blood appearing at the corner of her mouth-she was injured.
"You've made a breakthrough!" she said, glaring at the three-headed black dragon, her expression grim. In her current state, she was no match for him.
"Hmph, did you think you were the only one with a lucky encounter?" the three-headed black dragon roared, his attacks growing even fiercer.
Sara was barely holding on. In desperation, she looked over at John and shouted angrily, "Why aren't you helping?!"
"Me?" John was puzzled. It wasn't that he didn't want to help; his attacks simply weren't enough to pose a real threat to the three-headed black dragon.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a dark shadow flashed by behind him, a cold gleam cutting through the air. It was Bonnie!
Only then did John realize that Sara hadn't been addressing him.
Clang!
The dagger struck, sparks flying as it glanced off the hardened scales of the three-headed black dragon, which had withstood Bonnie's attack.
"Hmph, even the two of you together can't take me down. Today, this human will die!" the dragon roared, his aura surging even higher.
Whoosh!
Endless dragon flames rained down, instantly corroding everything in their path.
John's heart pounded with fear-compared to this monster, Avis was nothing.
Despite the combined assault from Sara and Bonnie, both powerful eighth-tier legendary beings, they still couldn't gain the upper hand against the three-headed black dragon.
Boom! Boom!
Terrifying energy rippled through the air, forcing John to retreat again and again.
He was still far too weak-he couldn't even withstand the residual energy from the attacks of these three powerful beings.
Rumble...
The sky lit up with a web of purple lightning as Sara transformed into her true form: a jet- black unicorn.
This was her most powerful attack, but even that wasn't enough to turn the tide.
"It's useless!" The three-headed black dragon's cold voice echoed, as its thick tail whipped like a lash, sending Sara crashing to the ground.
"If you both want to protect this human so badly, then I'll just kill you first!" he roared, unleashing three powerful magic spells that targeted Bonnie.
Each one was a high-level spell with devastating power.
"This isn't good!" Bonnie's face paled as she quickly conjured a dark shield and attempted to
retreat.
Boom!
With just one strike, her dark shield shattered, and the remaining two spells struck Bonnie directly.
Blood splattered through the air as Bonnie was sent flying, severely injured.
Struggling to get back on her feet, she gasped, "You actually consumed the Mystical Spirit Fruit!"
"Mystical Spirit Fruit? What's that?" John muttered to himself, perplexed by Bonnie's words. "The Mystical Spirit Fruit is a rare Abyssal fruit, known as the Forbidden Fruit." Suddenly, a voice spoke behind him-it was Behemoth!
John jumped in surprise, not having noticed Behemoth's approach.
Behemoth glanced at him without hostility and continued, "Consuming it increases one's attack power, but it comes with a severe side effect: you can never break through your current tier. Only those who have reached a dead end in their cultivation would risk consuming it. By doing this, the three-headed black dragon is destroying his future."
The three-headed black dragon was a legendary-tier being with immense potential. At the very least, he could reach the ninth tier, and he might even have the chance to become a
demigod.
But by consuming the Mystical Spirit Fruit, he had locked himself at the eighth tier. "Madman!" Sara cursed, also heavily injured. She suppressed her wounds and, together with Bonnie, charged at the three-headed black dragon once more.
Whoosh...
The terrifying magic surged again, especially the fire-based spells, which were devastating.
The three-headed black dragon effortlessly repelled the two women once more. He sneered, "Hmph, did you really think I'd throw away my future? Losing one head is a small price to pay. Once I kill this human and master the laws of darkness, I'll ascend to demigodhood- Tony and Ben will be no match for me!"
He wore a look of arrogance as his attacks grew even more ferocious, forcing the two women to flee in desperation, narrowly escaping danger at every turn.
"Behemoth, help us!" Bonnie called out for assistance.
Behemoth frowned but made no move. He had no desire to become an enemy of the three-
headed black dragon.
Bonnie shouted angrily, "You can't possibly believe this madman! If anything happens to the human, those two lords won't spare you!"
"Hmph, even if the three of you join forces, you still won't be a match for me. Today, you all die!" the three-headed black dragon sneered, suddenly turning his attacks toward the still-
hesitant Behemoth.
"Do you really think the Mystical Spirit Fruit makes you invincible?" Behemoth roared in anger, his body suddenly growing to the size of a mountain. He clenched his fist and struck at
the three-headed black dragon with tremendous force.
Boom!
A thunderous impact sent shockwaves through the air. Behemoth staggered backward, forced to retreat by the sheer power of the blow.
The three-headed black dragon was also sent flying, but he emerged unscathed. "Hmph, Behemoth. If you were at your peak, I might actually have reason to be cautious. But now, with one arm lost and your power severely diminished, you're no match for me," the dragon taunted, dark, earth, and fire elements swirling around him as he single-handedly battled three legendary-tier powerhouses without faltering.
"Too bad you've chosen the wrong side. Today, no one can save this human-you're all going to die!" he roared, launching three magical attacks simultaneously, fighting the three of them
head-on.
Boom!
Behemoth's massive body was sent flying.
Sara and Bonnie, already heavily injured, were pushed to the brink of defeat.
"Find a way to alert Tony and Ben!" Behemoth shouted urgently, realizing that if the battlen/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
continued, they were doomed.
The three-headed black dragon laughed mockingly. "It's pointless. Even if those two manage
to get here now, it'll be too late."
With that, he charged at Behemoth, recognizing the giant as the greatest threat and deciding
to eliminate him first.
Whoosh!
His entire body became enveloped in white flames, the intense heat radiating from them seemingly capable of melting everything in its path.
"Get out of my way!" Behemoth roared in anger, summoning earth elemental energy around
him to form armor.
It was a Diamond Armor.
But far stronger than anything John could summon, with the diamond emitting a faint purple
glow as Behemoth's colossal fist slammed into the three-headed black dragon.
Boom!
The flames surged, and the Diamond Armor shattered instantly, sending Behemoth's massive
body crashing to the ground.
But the three-headed black dragon didn't escape unscathed. While the Mystical Spirit Fruit had enhanced his attack power, it hadn't done anything to bolster his defense.
Behemoth's full-force strike managed to injure the three-headed black dragon. "Think of something, quickly!" Bonnie urged, her voice filled with urgency.
If this battle continued as it was, they, along with John, were all going to die. "Godslayer, lend me your divine weapon!" Sara suddenly looked at John, her eyes gleaming with determination.
"Alright!" John didn't hesitate for a second. He activated Sword Mastery, sending the Sword of Divinity and Demons hurtling toward her.
The three-headed black dragon realized what was happening. His massive body shimmered as he rushed toward the Sword of Divinity and Demons, desperate to intercept it.
But Sara was closer. She transformed back into her human form, snatching the Sword of Divinity and Demons out of the air.
"So powerful!" She glanced at the sword's attributes and felt a wave of relief.
As expected, the Sword of Divinity and Demons came with a powerful ultimate magical
ability, and she could wield it.
"How dare you!" the three-headed black dragon roared, charging at Sara with reckless
abandon, his three enormous heads shaking violently as he unleashed his most powerful
attack.
Bonnie and Behemoth exchanged a look, gritted their teeth, and placed themselves in front of
Sara.
They are using their bodies as shields to buy her time.
"Thank you," Sara muttered, deeply grateful. She didn't waste a moment, raising the Sword
of Divinity and Demons high above her head.
Whoosh!
A powerful, oppressive wind swept through the battlefield, filling the air with a palpable
tension.
Gulp!
John couldn't help but swallow nervously. It felt as though he were in the presence of a god's
avatar!
Was this the terror of an ultimate skill?
Indeed, he realized just how weak he was-he couldn't even begin to unleash the full power
of the Sword of Divinity and Demons.
"Wrath of the Gods!" Sara shouted, and with a mighty swing, she slashed at the three-headed
black dragon from a distance.
Rumble...
A terrifying sword beam materialized, vast and boundless, tearing through the sky and
leaving gaping rifts in space.
"No!" The three-headed black dragon howled in terror and defiance. The sword beam had
locked onto him, leaving him no chance to escape.
Slash!
Blood sprayed as one of his enormous heads was severed and sent flying.
-52,480,000
Sara's strike dealt over fifty-two million points of damage in a single blow. The fire-element head of the three-headed black dragon, enhanced by the Mystical Spirit
Fruit, was cut off, drastically reducing his power. Worse still, his health was almost depleted.
Escape!
Without a second thought, he turned and fled.
With his strongest head gone, his power was significantly reduced, making him no match for
the three opponents.
"You're not getting away!" Behemoth's cold voice echoed as he clenched his massive fist and
slammed it down.
Boom!
The three-headed black dragon was sent flying like a ragdoll.
Before he could even hit the ground, Sara and Bonnie unleashed their most powerful attacks
simultaneously.
Amidst the dragon's pitiful wails and roars, he was left on the brink of death, completely powerless to fight back.
"Hold off on the final blow-let me finish this!" John shouted, his excitement and adrenaline
surging.
This was an eighth-tier peak legendary beast. If he could kill it and plunder a talent or skill, it would be a massive windfall.
Even if he didn't manage to Plunder a talent or skill, the sheer amount of experience points would be incredible.
