The Mighty Dragons Are Dead-Chapter 1108 - 1105: Half-Step Bastion Knight

“The time that follows will be just for Leo and me to spend alone, to touch the Barrier!”

…

In the Doomsday Volcano Group, an active Volcano Crater.

Liszt and Leo stood at the Volcano Crater, starting the official charge toward becoming a Barrier Knight. Liszt had previously completed a Smoke Mission that touched upon the Barrier, skillfully finishing it through his understanding of creating something from nothing in regards to the Barrier.

But after understanding the murals on Mount Mulagao Ding and the existence of Barriers as the mastery of rules, his conception of creating something from nothing was sublimated.

“I used to think that the existence of Superior Magic was – there was no Superior Magic here, but there should be, so there was. Actually, this is quite superficial. It’s not that there should be therefore it exists, but rather it’s an embodiment of a rule. The existence of Superior Magic is a product derived from a rule.”

This is neither an idealist nor a materialistic view of the world.

It’s a unique Cultivation System of rules in this world, where Magic Dragons, Moon Dragons, Evil Dragons, and even the previous generation of Sacred Dragons, are all masters of this rule.

“Now, it’s your turn, Leo, and mine, to master the rules.”

“Oh-ho!”

“The best way to master the rules is to integrate with them. This Volcano Crater will be our training ground for a long time to come,” Liszt said as he touched the scales on Leo’s forelimb before he took the lead and leaped into the Volcano Crater where bubbling, scorching lava awaited.

With a fierce roar, Leo followed right behind, leaping into the Volcano Crater.

He was so large that he had to transform into his Magic Form midway to merge into the lava following Liszt.

The Doomsday Volcano Crater, not having been harvested by Leo for its Volcanic Super Magic in a long time, was rich in Super Magic throughout the lava. Tiny particles of Super Magic performed Brownian motion arbitrarily in the lava, their origins and methods of creation unknown.

In their Magic Forms, Liszt and Leo became one entity.

Two synchronized minds controlled a massive Magic Form, capturing Super Magic particles at will, feeling them, and thinking in the lava. In fact, Leo’s body was essentially made up of Super Magic, and after absorbing the essence of the Phoenix, Liszt’s body had also largely become Super Magic.

Their resonance with Super Magic was, to a large extent, the closest to the abode of the rules.

Training in seclusion, they were oblivious to the passage of days and nights, only interrupted by hunger.

After soaking in the lava for an entire day and night, Liszt was the first to endure no longer; hungry beyond measure without a meal, let alone for an entire day. He burst out of the lava, reverted to his human form, and from his Space Ring, he took out food and devoured it heartily. Leo also emerged to enjoy his favorite grilled steak.

Thus, soaked in the Doomsday Volcano Crater for a whole half month – although far from breaking through the Barrier and mastering the rules, both he and Leo had their control over Super Magic greatly enhanced.

“Now, I can truly call myself a Half-Step Barrier Knight.”

With the combat strength of his Fire Dragon Knight status, he could now instantly kill any Dragon Knight in the Legendary Continent, without the need for the sophisticated Dragon Knight manuals. Purely relying on the formidable Fire Attribute Mana, he could eradicate everything.

“Let’s go back and have Emily and Hippolyta join us to test out the combat strength!”

“Oh-ho!”

…

Back at the Sun Moon Star Palace.

Emily, riding the Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan, and Hippolyta, riding the Grey Iron Dragon Ornn, were already waiting in the back mountain. The combat strength of the two Female Dragon Knights wasn’t particularly strong, but it was sufficient to measure Liszt’s combat strength.

“Your Majesty, Hippolyta is still getting used to being a Dragon Knight and may not be able to utilize all of Ornn’s combat strength. Please focus on me when you attack,” Emily said.

Her usual valiant appearance.

Hippolyta was dressed in bright silver armor, holding an eight-meter-long Dragon Lance in her hand, forged from a Magic Metal Alloy—the Flame Kingdom was short of everything except for Magic Metal.

“Your Majesty, although I’m not as strong as Sister Emily, I will give it my all!”

“Don’t be nervous, I am only using this battle as a reference for my current strength,” Liszt stated with an indifferent smile, “Leo and I have undergone a complete transformation, so unleash your full power without any mental burden. Only this way can I accurately understand my current strength.”

“As you wish,” both women responded.

Then the battle began. Liszt, riding the hundred-meter-long Fire Dragon Leo, also switched to the largest ten-meter-long Dragon Lance.

He didn’t use the Dragon Breath attack.

Purely with brute force and the strength of the Superior Magic Dragon Dou Qi, he faced Emily and Hippolyta. In his hands, the Dragon Lance seemed to come to life, parrying and blocking, seamlessly dispelling the tempestuous barrage of attacks from both of them. No matter how much Impact Force they combined with their Dragon Dou Qi Manuals, they couldn’t break through his defense.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

Although both Ethan and Ornn are Dragons, seeing Liszt unmoving as a mountain, they gradually unleashed their fury. The wild Magic Power connected with the Dragon Knights, exploding into even greater attack forces.

But in vain.

Liszt still effortlessly defended against the two Dragon Knights’ onslaught, even leisurely finding flaws in Emily and Hippolyta’s fighting styles. He had fought alongside Ethan and Ornn in the past, so he understood where their Dragon Dou Qi Manuals needed refinement.

“Not enough, not enough, Emily, your attack frequency is lacking. You and Ethan have not yet found the right rhythm; mutual care is mediocrity. You must accelerate the attack frequency. Ethan will gradually adapt to your fighting style. Remember, it’s the Knight who leads!”

He swept away their attacks with a single thrust of his lance and then, with a fierce push, drove Leo forward, the Dragon Lance vibrating in the air, flickering countless spear flowers condensed with Superior Magic.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Every vibration was accompanied by a thrust aimed directly at Emily on the back of the Dragon, passing by her forehead—if he chose, he could stab the Dragon Knight dead at any moment.

The strength disparity was a total domination.

A Half-Step Barrier Knight was no longer comparable to the level of a mere Dragon Knight.

“Stop now; I already understand my strength,” Liszt retracted the Dragon Lance and looked at the two women calmly, “You still both need to improve a lot, even as Dragon Knights in their prime, it is not the end of the cultivation system… If you can keep up with me, I will guide you to your future direction.”

Having said that, he had already taken Leo to fly towards the Sun Moon Star Palace.

Leaving behind a back that seemed unreachable. To the two women, it grewer further and further, even as it shrank into a tiny dot, it was still blinding like the sun.
