Defying the Fate of Beheading-Chapter 589 - 318: The Power of the Dragon Unleashed, A Strike Piercing Through the Demi-Plane_2

The contract between a Dragon Knight and a Dragon Rider allows both parties to share a portion of each other's power.

As a result, humans gain dragon characteristics, and dragons gain human growth.

The partnership between the two can be described as a match made in heaven, with the Dragon Empire's strength closely tied to the Dragon Knights.

Patriarch Jean, watching from the stage, stroked his chin with a subtle expression in his eyes.

He inexplicably had a thought in his mind: this exceptionally talented Prince Louis had a surprisingly strong control over the empire.

The profession of a Dragon Knight fully embodies the saying, "Those inside want to go out, and those outside want to come in."

Especially the pairing of male Dragon Knights with female dragons is a delight beyond measure for some exotic enthusiasts.

After all, most of the female dragons available for contracts have yet to experience dragon courtship.

Of course, this situation has historical reasons.

On one hand, male dragons have to endure the pressure of being hunted by kingdom armies, adventurers, and dragon-slaying warriors, and spend a long time amassing mountain-like wealth to earn the love of a female dragon.

On the other hand, Dragon Knights hardly need to make any sacrifices to ride the white moonlight that male dragons cannot obtain, enjoying all of the female dragon's firsts.

Because of this frustrating combination, conflicts were not uncommon early on within the Dragon Empire.

However, regardless, the Dragon Knight contract is inherently beneficial for both dragons and humans.

Dragons need growth time the most, and the human contract can speed up their transition through the weak early stages, rapidly forming combat power.

Conversely, humans can also gain dragon power enhancements, greatly increasing their combat capabilities.

In Patriarch Jean's view, Louis below is such a case.

With the Purgatory Dragon bloodline and the added power of the Gem Dragon, he was naturally tough, even surpassing the dragons themselves.

But relying solely on a robust body to defeat a Sword Master was nothing short of wishful thinking.

A strong body is not particularly challenging for those in the Saint Realm, as long as... hmm, wait? What's happening below?

Below, Louis raised his head, took a deep breath, and the already dense innate Gang Qi was surrounded by a large amount of blood mist, transforming into a roaring dragon form that coiled around him.

When Louis raised his blade again, the invisible Gang Qi and the blood mist dragon form intertwined, transforming Louis into a crimson Demon God.

The Sword Master quietly observed the torn fabric in his palm.

There was a lingering blood mist on it; he had just broken through the invisible Gang Qi and immediately retreated, not just fearing that the sparring would turn into a killing.

He didn't think for a moment that the young man opposite him could be killed so easily.

He simply sensed an incredibly pure dragon force about to attack him.

If he had been a moment slower, he would have directly collided with the dragon force.

His long knife did not stop, and the dense blade light continuously struck Louis' body.

However, the blade light that continuously weakened the invisible Gang Qi now seemed to crash into an iron board, turning into a dull sound when it struck Louis' blood-colored dragon form—

Thud thud thud~

The dull sound seemed like someone was swinging an iron rod against an iron wall.

The Sword Master's expression finally changed, showing an intense shock and incomprehensible look.

If what Louis learned from Kulin Sword Saint was cutting and slowing.

Then what the Sword Master mastered was weakening and breaking.

As long as he saw his opponent's weakness, he could deliver a penetrating strike in the shortest time by repeatedly attacking the same weak point.

But at this moment, he found it difficult to locate a flaw in the blood-colored dragon form protecting Louis.

This was not because the blood-colored dragon form was without flaws, but because the opponent somehow concealed all the weaknesses.

"I see... A comprehensive enhancement of control ability results in a strong, seamless defense?"

He originally thought Louis had control over certain powers, but never expected it to be like this.

Louis's lips curled into a slight smile.

If it were yesterday, his defensive capability might not have reached this level, with a notable gap against the Sword Master's blade aura.

But this morning, before he got out of bed, he felt an invisible force budding within his body, rapidly filling him.

In just that moment, Louis's professional level climbed to LV20, then swiftly reached the pinnacle of LV20 in a few breaths.

At the same time, a special power named [Control of All Things] manifested within him.

This power did not originate from Louis himself.

He immediately understood that far away in Titan City of the Ense Empire, Limuru nurtured by the White Tower had made a breakthrough.

From now on, it would become the legendary creature [Kingdom Slime].

Unlike the freshly nurtured Kingdom Slimes such as No. 001.

Other Kingdom Slimes could cultivate into giant slimes from 100 spawned slimes; digestion doesn't really matter.

But Limuru is different.

Among the 10,000 special slimes composing Limuru, each one is unique.

For example, an ordinary special slime, like a bronze slime, lives in a copper mine.

But the specialized slime nurtured by the White Tower is cultivated with magic and alchemy from pure copper, raised from youth using pure copper.

The slimes nurtured in such a laboratory environment, absorbing large amounts of pure substances, would not become bronze slimes but [Copper Slimes].

In terms of copper metal control alone, Copper Slimes far surpass bronze slimes, even exerting a bloodline suppression over them.
