Chapter 53: The Strength of the Ancient Dragon
"If you think about it, the reason why the dragon went berserk was probably because of the influence of the Gospel." Shelazad agrees with Rien's approach, "And the anomalies that the Gospel has caused so far are not one or the other. β
"By subtracting the role of the Gospel, can we stop the dragon from going berserk?" Kim nodded, "Well, it's really reasonable. β
"Wait, wait a minute, the Gospel has a very hard shell on the surface." Estelle reminded, "Didn't you draw your sword last time and only cut a shallow mark?" β
"If you give me a chance, I'm 100% sure I'll destroy that thing." Li En said with a smile, "Your Excellency General, you also said before that there is a specialization in the art industry, and this kind of task is entrusted to a professional, how about it?" β
"That's all it takes, if you can do it, you can do it." General Morgan finally relented, "It's just just that just in case, the flying fleet still has to patrol around the canyon." If you scare the dragon away, you can deal with it in time. β
"As it should be." Li En stretched, "After watching the play for so long, it should be my turn to sing "Pick a Pulley". β
"Look ahead, the black hole, it must be the thief's lair, wait for me to catch up and kill him!"

Somewhere near the northwest end of the Misty Canyon, the El Seyu rose into the air and vanished.
On the cliff, Rien and Lixia stood side by side, watching the ship leave. Above them, the white falcon of the divine steed hovered low, and from time to time let out a high-pitched falcon chirp.
"Finally, it's just the two of us." Lynn took Lixia's hand, her eyes gentle.
"Hmm." Lixia's voice was still so good, "It didn't take long, but it seemed like a long time." β
"Because all sorts of things have happened during this time." There was a hint of tiredness on Lien's face, and the confrontation with "Association" was very exercised, but it was really tiring.
"Are you tired, take a break when you're tired." Lixia rested Rien's head on her shoulder, "I'll be with you." β
"Even if you climb the path you choose, you have to finish it." This is the words given to him by his grandfather in his previous life, and it is also his life creed, "just"
"You chose your own path, and so did mine." Lixia's smile was as elegant as ever, "You want to protect what you value, and so do I." β
The difference is that your heart is very big, and there are many things you want to protect, and the only one I want to protect is you.
"There's a lot I can't say right now." Lane struggled to suppress the urge to confess, "I promise you, when it's all over, I'll tell you my story." β
"I'll wait." Lixia smiled happily, and that was enough for her.
"Chirp? Chirp! Kiku landed on Rian's shoulder in a terrible manner, his sharp beak biting at his collar and dragging him.
"Kiku!" Li En looked annoyed, "Didn't you see that my atmosphere is just right, what kind of trouble?" β
"Chirp!" Kiku pointed with his wings, as if he had made a discovery.
"Let's go with you?" Rien finally figured it out, "OK, lead the way." β
"Chirp!" Kiku flapped his wings and flew west.
"Huh." Lixia chuckled and helped Rie straighten up his collar, Kiku, you're helping the master be jealous, but that's the only hint that Rien can't tell.
(As explained here, the princess has a vague affection for Rien, but she has concerns and basically doesn't show much of it, and only Yaniras and Lixia, who are past people, can see it.) Although Li En is not wood, he is not a love saint, and he doesn't understand the girl's mind. οΌ

"Huge natural cave in Rock Mountain." Rien nodded, "Is this the place?" β
"Chirp~"
"Okay." Rien took out a pen and paper and wrote down the situation into a note and tied it to Kiku's leg, "Go find your master." β
"Chirp!"
"Well, then, Lixia, go crazy with me." Li En narrowed his eyes, "The ancient dragon that Senior Brother challenged back then, this time it's our turn. β
Lixia calmly held Mo Ye, I will go where you go.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
There is a huge natural cave at the top of the rocky mountain, and the sunlight shines through the hollow at the top of the mountain, making the cave not dark, but bright.
The cyan behemoth lay in the center of the cave, its wings and limbs naturally folded, and its body undulated evenly, as if it was napping.
Lane closed his eyes, and the perception spread like a spider's web, "You don't feel Levi's breath in the cave, what about you?"
"I haven't found it here, and I don't need to hide it deliberately with his strength." Lixia looked at the bulge in the dragon's head, "Then there's only one last question left." β
"How to destroy the Gospel, right. Based on our experience last time, we should be able to use that trick. β
"What if it doesn't work?".
"Then you and I will mend the knife." Lane took a deep breath.
"Okay." Lixia pulled out Mo Xie, and her eyebrows were radiant.
"Let's go!" Exhale, inhale, exhale, and absorb, and the breathing rate of the two gradually converges. The so-called qigong is derived from the method of breathing and breathing, and every move is related to the movement of qi and blood, and the breathing is in harmony with each other.
The footwork, body shape, and movements are as mellow and harmonious as Tai Chi Pisces.
The body has no colorful wings and two flying phoenixes, and the heart is clear, this is the tacit understanding between Li En and Lixia.
"The sun and the moon turn!" The sword body is as hot as the blazing sun, the sword is as bright as the moon, and the sun and the moon rotate, which is in line with the way of heaven. The swords intersected, and the bright sun and cold moon descended in unison, hitting the bulge on the dragon's head - "Gospel".
"Click~" There was an inaudible cracking sound, and the "Gospel" was immediately hit hard. Unfortunately, the heavy blow was not completely destroyed, and the purple-black pulses rushed wildly.
"Roar!" The sleeping dragon is awakened by the rampaging Gospel, and the dragon flame sweeps through the cavern, venting its displeasure. People have the gas to get up, and dragons have it, and the way to vent is much more terrible than humans.
"Hao Yan Sword!" The internal qi poured into the Taidao, rolling up a whirlpool that was difficult to see with the naked eye on the body of the knife, and the surrounding Long Yan was pulled by the invisible force and gathered on the Taidao, opening up a pure land for the two of them.
"Sword One, Fire Raven!" The knife rises, there is a divine fire crow flying in the sky, different from the previous one, this time it is three, the fire crow twists and turns, and goes straight to the gospel! This is exactly the change brought about by Qigong after entering the realm of internal qi and external release, and the power of the original moves has reached a higher level.
It's just that the three fire crows are very good at dealing with humans and demonic beasts, but they are far from being able to deal with the mountain-like dragon in front of them. With a fan of dragon wings, he directly smashed three small things that were in the way. Lien's fire raven has the ability to change direction with the traction of his qi, but the dragon wings are too big, and the slightest change is irrelevant. It's like the style of the Lord of Heaven one night, even if you can't hit, it's no problem to destroy the entire city together.
A cold moonlight lit up in the cave, and neither the sunlight in the sky nor the flames in the cave could dim it. This touch of moonlight was held by a snow-white slender plain hand, and between the halos, the moonlight in the hand became more and more condensed.
"Yuehua Arrow!" Lixia's left hand was raised high, and Yuehua finally took shape, a short arrow. The arrow came out, the streamer slashed, and the target was still the gospel.
The light arrow came so fast that the ancient dragon only had time to tilt his head. The problem is still the same, the difference between people's heads is not more than a fraction, and the dragon's words can be calculated by sub-moments. The moonlight arrow slashed through the dragon scales, sparks splashed everywhere, and the scale armor that was difficult to be injured by the sword was destroyed by an arrow at this moment, which showed the great power.
"Glitter Charm!" Lixia missed the blow, and she was not anxious, her hands shook, and she shot four talismans into the sky, and the dazzling bright light filled the entire cave, and her eyes were as blind as she was.
"I'll give you a chance!" Li En was just about to take this opportunity to mend the knife, but unexpectedly, the ancient dragon actually acted as a turtle with a shrunken head and used its wings to protect its head and face, and just curled up on the ground.
Fortunately, Lane can't remember exactly how AgatΓ© destroyed the gospel in the first place, otherwise he would have cursed: "Director, this script is wrong." (In the game, Tita blasts the dragon's head with a flare, Ai and the princess kick her feet, and Agather mends the sword.) οΌ
The dragon's scale armor was hard, and the two of them could only barely break the armor with all their strength, unable to cause substantial damage, and if the dragon kept maintaining the state of a turtle with a shrunken head, it could exhaust them to death before seeing the gospel. Moreover, the opponent is not a turtle, but an ancient dragon that has lived for thousands of years.
As soon as the effect of the glitter ended, the dragon lifted its defensive stance.
The wings are fanned, and the strong wind makes people unsteady on their feet.
The dragon's breath spews out, and the flames can melt even the rock walls.
Swinging the tail and sweeping, the blocker is invincible.
This is the absolute power that exists at the top of the food chain! Even if you don't have wisdom and act only on instinct, you still can't beat it.
