“This Golden Wyvern also knows about Wonders?”
Xia Tian’s gaze also flickered.
Since it knows about Wonders, it means this Golden Wyvern might also possess one, and its danger level has probably increased by another notch.
Now that the “Embroidered Spring Blade” was in hand, he had to lure it down and deal with it.
With a flash of light in his hand, Xia Tian once again took out an item from his Lord’s Space, which emitted a striking golden glow in the sunlight. It was none other than one of the spoils of war confiscated from the Centaur Prince, the “Golden Wine Gourd,” capable of transforming water poured into it into strong liquor.
“This… is a treasure made of gold?”
“Human, such a treasure is not something you are qualified to touch. It must have been lost from the hands of a noble Golden Dragon and fallen into the Eternal Land. Quickly return it to me!”
It was clear that the Golden Wyvern’s expression in the air had changed, its breathing was somewhat rapid through its nose and mouth, and its orange draconic vertical pupils almost glowed with fervent light.
Compared to mere gold, there was no doubt that such an exquisitely crafted golden artifact was more capable of attracting the gaze of a dragon-type creature.
“Noble? Are you referring to that hybridized lizard bloodline of yours?!”
“If you truly consider yourself a dragon, then come and have a direct battle with us humans.”
“I will only send out one subordinate. If you can defeat him, all the gold in my territory and this Wonder, the ‘Golden Wine Gourd,’ will be yours.”
Xia Tian spoke towards the sky, his tone filled with strong mockery.
“Damn human, you’ve angered me. You weak humans, let alone one-on-one, even a hundred of you are no match for a noble Golden Dragon!”
The Golden Wyvern’s tone was filled with rage, clearly having its reverse scale touched by Xia Tian’s words.
“Then come down, do you have the guts?”
Xia Tian coldly pressed on with another question.
“Noble Fafnir is never cowardly!”
The Golden Wyvern roared, its body slowly descending, but its orange dragon eyes were fixed intently on Hua Rong’s bow and arrow.
It believed that Xia Tian would definitely send out this archer, because it was already incredibly astonishing for a weak human to appear who could injure it, and it was impossible for more people to be qualified to fight it!
“My lord, I’ll go!”
Hua Rong also spoke up, wanting to go into battle.
“My lord, we are also willing to fight.”
Not just him, but Da Niu and Shen Lian also volunteered.
“You probably aren’t its match.”
Xia Tian shook his head.
If it were merely powerful attributes, Xia Tian would not have attached so much importance to this Golden Wyvern.
Because although this Golden Wyvern’s physique value reached over “15,” for different species, one cannot completely compare combat power based on physique values, as creatures with larger body sizes will inevitably have higher basic physique values. The Golden Wyvern’s wingspan exceeded ten meters, and its body weight alone was far greater than that of humans, so its physique value naturally far surpassed humans.
What truly represented its combat power was that it had already undergone “Transformation,” and living beings capable of further breaking through after reaching their limit state should not be underestimated!
The reason Xia Tian used the “one-on-one” method, besides luring the Golden Wyvern to drop its guard and descend from the sky, was also because in the entire territory, the only one capable of confronting it directly was Wu Song, who had also undergone transformation and whose physique had now further reached “10.7”!
Most importantly, with Wu Song fighting, several Wonders could be utilized at once.
“Captain Wu, I’ll have to trouble you with this battle!”
Xia Tian handed both the Embroidered Spring Blade and the Golden Wine Gourd to Wu Song, and finally took out something else from his embrace: the “Guardian Spirit Stone” left behind by the Xiāo leader killed by Wu Song’s fist.
Three Wonders, each with its own use.
“Chief Hua, if the battle turns unfavorable, you must act immediately.”
Afterward, Xia Tian instructed Hua Rong in human language.
Are you kidding? “One-on-one” was, of course, just a pretense.
It was like the duels between generals in “Romance of the Three Kingdoms”; if one’s side had the upper hand, then fine, but if one’s side was in trouble, the entire army would naturally charge forward.
There’s no need to talk about morality when dealing with foreign races; everyone should fight together!
What, you said it would be a one-on-one fight?
No problem, isn’t a group fighting one also “one-on-one”?
“Human, put down the Golden Dragon’s treasure.”
Seeing that Xia Tian did not send out Hua Rong, but another human to fight, the Golden Wyvern’s eyes clearly showed a slight confusion.
But immediately, it was attracted by the Golden Wine Gourd held in Wu Song’s hand, especially when Wu Song raised his head and poured all the strong liquor from the gourd into his mouth, the intense aroma of the wine spreading far and wide!
Although it didn’t know what benefits this pungent “water” in the Golden Wine Gourd had, in the Golden Wyvern’s eyes, it was already its own possession, so it naturally wouldn’t allow Wu Song to “steal a drink.”
Therefore, the next moment it flapped its wings and swooped down, its orange pupils focused solely on the Golden Wine Gourd held in Wu Song’s hand.
“Come on!”
Having finished drinking, Wu Song tossed the Golden Wine Gourd in his hand into the air, his movements slightly drunken, but his gaze even clearer and more spirited.
He gripped the Embroidered Spring Blade with both hands and, facing the Golden Wyvern descending from the sky and its ferocious dragon claw reaching for the Golden Wine Gourd, he swung a powerful strike upwards with all his might.
“Foolish human, do you think I can’t see through your scheme…”
The Golden Wyvern’s claw continued to grab at the Golden Wine Gourd, its vertical pupils filled with mockery. For it, possessing the bloodline of a Golden Dragon, its body was its strongest weapon, and its dragon claws were the core of that weapon, not only incredibly sharp but also indestructible!
Even if the opponent’s knife was suspected to be a “Wonder,” it didn’t pay much attention to it. After all, according to the “rules” it knew, weak races like humans, even if they obtained a Wonder, it would only be the lowest-grade “white” Wonder.
If it had chosen to attack its most vulnerable abdomen, like the archer before, it might have had some effect in breaking its defense.
But it dared to choose the strongest defensive part of its body, its claw. It was likely that the moment it struck, this knife would be shattered by the impact.
“No, this knife!”
Suddenly, terror appeared in the Golden Wyvern’s pupils.
Because at the moment it was about to make contact with its claw, a bright yellow color suddenly appeared on the Embroidered Spring Blade in Wu Song’s hand, like a solidified blade aura coating it!
The next moment, its claw, which had just touched the Golden Wine Gourd, was severed and detached at the point where it was struck by the blade, and dragon blood splattered wildly.
Most importantly, when the Embroidered Spring Blade wounded the Golden Wyvern’s claw, an invisible force also struck the soul of this transformed creature, causing its mind to instantly waver!
Unable to change its diving posture in time, it crashed heavily to the ground from the air, mud splashing at the landing site.
And after Wu Song’s successful strike, his movements didn’t stop at all. The Embroidered Spring Blade, enveloped in a bright yellow blade aura, cut through the air and immediately struck at the base of one of the “crashed” Golden Wyvern’s wings.
Pfft!
With a swift motion of the blade, another large golden dragon wing fell to the ground.
“Roar!”
The intense pain from the two severed wounds brought the Golden Wyvern back to consciousness from the daze of its soul injury.
But the simultaneous breaking of its claws and wings rendered it powerless to escape, whether by flying or on the ground. The scarlet dragon blood, tinged with golden hues, gushed wildly from its wounds, soaking the surrounding soil.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible, these lowly humans!”
The Golden Wyvern lay on the ground, letting out a frantic roar from its throat. It couldn’t accept that a weak human had defeated it in just one encounter, even severing its proud wings and claws.
More importantly, Wu Song had already stepped forward, his long black hair wildly disheveled, the Embroidered Spring Blade in his hand, enveloped in a bright yellow aura, pointed directly at the Golden Wyvern’s head, which bore a striking resemblance to a lizard’s!
“Damn human, do you think only you possess Wonders?!”
The Golden Wyvern finally reached its peak of fury, and suddenly a fiery red color emerged from its mouth and nose!
“Dragon’s Breath? Captain Wu, be careful!”
Xia Tian was startled and quickly called out a warning.
However, he guessed wrong.
Not to mention whether this inferior hybrid dragon-type creature could even possess Dragon’s Breath, even if it could, it wouldn’t have much power at the Mortal-grade level.
In fact, the fiery red object spat out from the Golden Wyvern’s mouth was a transparent pearl, with what looked like flowing lava inside, flying through the air and emitting a high temperature that distorted the air.
It shot out from its mouth, rushing towards Wu Song, who was at close quarters.
What a Wu Erlang! His reaction speed was astonishing. He instantly used the “Jade Ring Step” to sidestep and retreat, avoiding being directly hit by the pearl.
But the “lava pearl” that missed its target continued to fly, and when it landed on the ground, it suddenly caused a violent explosion.
Boom!
At the point of impact, the rocks, defying the laws of physics, instantly melted, transforming into a churning, boiling mass of fiery red lava.
At the same time, a large ball of crimson flames swept outwards from the impact point, spreading rapidly. Even Wu Song couldn’t escape it in time, and his body was instantly engulfed by the flames.
