Chapter 136: Flame Dragon (1)
The dragon's roar echoed through the world of flames, causing the ground to tremble with each thunderous sound.
Its fierce, fiery breath scorched the air, leaving a trail of smoke in its wake.
The frightful roar would make anyone shiver who dared to cross its path.
Chen Tian looked at the body of the dragon.
The dragon was 50 meters long, towering over everything in its vicinity. Its scales shimmered in hues of deep crimson, reflecting the intensity of its flame power.
Its scales glowed with an otherworldly intensity.
Its sharp claws dug into the earth, leaving deep imprints that served as a reminder of its immense power.
Chen Tian couldn't help but become alert, his senses heightening as he found himself in the presence of the flame dragon.
The air seemed to thicken with its power as he gazed upon the magnificent creature before him.

Its scales shimmered like molten flames, emitting a fierce heat capable of liquefying even the most resilient metals.
"It's not an actual dragon, but it's entirely the true Dao of fire. This battle is going to be fierce," Chen Tian mused quietly.
"Hm!!"
"Heavenly Lightning Step Second Step!"
/RUMBLE/ /CIIZZT/
Using the second stage of the Heavenly Lightning Steps, with a mastery of lightning law at 40%, Chen Tian vanished from his original position and materialized a few meters away.
The swift move left behind a faint trace of electric energy in the air, a proof of the power it had.
|BOOOOMM|
The place where he was standing just moments before now lay in ruins.
The ground was scorched and cracked, bearing the marks of a fierce dragon claw.
The force of the claw had created a shockwave that shattered the nearby rocks and sent debris flying in all directions.
Chen Tian positioned himself and fixed his gaze on his opponent.
"ROAR!!!!"
Seeing that Chen Tian escaped its attack, the dragon roared, its fiery breath billowing out from its massive jaws.
Chen Tian could feel the heat and power radiating from the creature, but he stood his ground.
The dragon lunged at Chen Tian with astonishing speed, its claws slashing through the air toward Chen Tian.
Chen Tian's instincts took over as he instinctively used the second step once more, evading the dragon's attack with remarkable speed, narrowly escaping its deadly claws.
With several meters between him and the dragon, Chen Tian crouched low, his heart racing with adrenaline.
He was acutely aware that a single misstep could have fatal consequences.
"This is serious. A single mistake could end everything!"
"Thunder Law 40%"
/RUMBLE/ /CIIZZT/
Chen Tian's body lit up with crackling electricity as he unleashed his Thunder Law to the max.
The atmosphere surrounding him buzzed with potent energy, and the dragon's eyes widened in astonishment.
With lightning speed, Chen Tian closed the distance between them, his sword charging with thunderous power.
Chen Tian's goal right now is to end this fight as quickly as possible. He knew that any hesitation or mistake could be fatal.
'Annihilation Sword. Last Breath.'
With lightning imbued on him and his aura for a second, Chen Tian disappeared from the place he was standing.
The dragon, sensing the impending danger, immediately retaliated with its own attack, releasing a deafening roar that shook the surrounding area.
But before it could fully execute its counterattack, Chen Tian reappeared behind the dragon, his sword slicing through the air with unstoppable force.
|Clingggggg|
The dragon used its tail, made of flames, to swiftly counter Chen Tian's attack.
The clash of their strengths created a shockwave that reverberated through the area.
"Ughh!!"
The impact of the force sent Chen Tian hurtling towards the ground, forming a small crater upon contact.
The soil and rocks were thrown into the air due to the impact.
"Damn it!" Chen Tian cursed as he picked himself up from the ground, realizing that his efforts weren't sufficient to overcome the challenge.
The dragon's scales shimmered as it opened its mouth, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth.
"Motherf*cker!" Chen Tian cursed, well aware of the dragon's intentions.
Without hesitation, he quickly used the Heavenly Lightning Steps' Second Step. However, this time he pushed the power of the lightning law to 50%, a level he shouldn't have dared to use, but circumstances left him no choice.
A surge of energy raced through his veins, transforming his body into a blur as he moved with astonishing speed.
|BOOOOMMMM|
The place was engulfed in flames as the dragon exhaled a torrent of fire.
Every part of these flames was imbued with the Dao of fire, making them even more lethal. The heat was unbearable.
The land was reduced to a charred wasteland, and if it was the real world, everything would have been burned to ashes. The intense heat radiated from the scorched earth as smoke billowed into the red sky.
The dragon's fiery breath had decimated everything in its path, leaving only destruction in its path.
"Even if it's just 0.1%, the Dao of fire surpasses ordinary flames by far," Chen Tian pondered as he evaded the sudden dragon's breath.
"I can't continue this battle in the same manner, or I'll surely be defeated."
"Khh!"
As Chen Tian attempted to move, a sharp and intense pain surged through his leg.
"Ugh, I only went over by 10%, and it's really taking a toll on me," he muttered in frustration.
Despite the pain, Chen Tian knew he couldn't afford to let his guard down.
"GRRRRR!!!"
The dragon once again parted its jaws, with flames amassing within its throat.
|Boooommm|
Chen Tian quickly dove to the side, narrowly avoiding the scorching heat.
Sweat dripped down his forehead as he anxiously searched for a way to turn the tide of the battle.
He knew he had to come up with a plan fast, or else this dragon would be the end of him.
"I'm in a tough spot. If I don't use all my power, I'm done for," Chen Tian muttered to himself, feeling the pressure.
