Chapter 844: Dragon Slayer

"Die!"

Facing the kneeling cultivators, Wang Chen uttered a single word and raised his palm once more. The destructive power of the formations hidden beneath Taiji Palace was instantly activated. As his hand pressed down heavily, it immediately enveloped the group of traitors.

Nearly a hundred innate-level cultivators barely had time to let out a cry of despair before they were all crushed into meat pancakes!

The protective formation of Chang’an City was personally arranged by Wang Chen, consuming vast resources, and its rank was unmatched. Even though he had handed control to Mo Han, the latter could not fully unleash the formation’s power. Therefore, under the circumstances of internal troubles and external threats, it struggled to hold up.

Now that Wang Chen had emerged from his closed-door cultivation and personally controlled the protective formation, the situation was entirely different! Such a terrifying scene would become an unforgettable nightmare for the other cultivators present, ensuring that from that day forward, none among them would dare to betray again.

Wang Chen ignored the countless informational alerts flashing before his eyes and waved his robe sleeve, saying, "You all return to your positions. I will handle the matters outside."

He nodded at Mo Han and then swiftly dashed out of the main hall.

As he exited the hall, Wang Chen looked up to see two flying dragons circling in the sky. These so-called flying dragons were not true dragons; in fact, there were no real dragons to be found even in the vast Haotian Realm, let alone in the lower Misty Mountains Realm.

The two flying dragons Wang Chen saw resembled the western dragons from his past life’s movies, possessing huge bodies, strong limbs, short stout necks, and fearsome heads. Of course, they also sported a pair of eagle-like wings. One dragon was red and the other black, with their body surfaces covered in dense scales, except for their wings.

They dived down recklessly time and again, like two giant cannonballs crashing to the ground, mercilessly destroying the tall buildings in the city and causing massive casualties. Undoubtedly, this was the result of problems with the protective formation’s operation. Otherwise, with Wang Chen’s arrangements, it would have been impossible for such rampant behavior in Chang’an City!

The dragons’ attacks also brought tremendous panic to the citizens. People screamed and fled in all directions; some residents tripped and fell during their escape, getting trampled by those behind them. The scene was horrific!

The city guard was doing their utmost to fight back, but the arrows they shot could not penetrate the hard scales of the flying dragons, and their battle axes and spears were as ineffective as mere scratching. A few innate martial artists bravely charged towards the grounded flying dragons, trying to find vital spots for a lethal strike. However, the dragons had extraordinarily keen instincts; before those martial artists could get close, they suddenly turned, whipped their tails, and opened their bloodthirsty mouths to unleash searing flames upon them. The innate martial artists hit by the dragon’s fire instantly turned to ash!

Seeing this situation, Wang Chen was filled with rage. He reached out and pulled out the Sunset Bow hidden in the Xumi Ring.

"Hey!"

Wang Chen suddenly exhaled as he drew the bow to its full moon shape, nocking a dark golden arrow. A powerful stream of innate true qi continuously poured into this weapon of slaughter, fully unleashing its destructive power!

Crash!

In the next moment, an arrow imbued with terrifying destructive power shot forth with incredible speed.

The arrow sliced through the air without a sound, traversing a thousand paces in the blink of an eye, its velocity only increasing as it flew.

The three-edged armor-piercing arrowhead generated intense friction with the air, rapidly glowing red-hot until the entire arrow transformed into a streak of blazing fire, hurtling toward the dark red flying dragon.

This red dragon, though slightly smaller than the black dragon, was no less ferocious. It had just demolished a five-story building, snatched a civilian with its razor-sharp claws, and tossed them into the air before devouring them like a mere snack.

The red dragon let out a triumphant roar and was about to spread its wings to ascend once more when, suddenly, a chilling sensation surged through its heart.

Startled, the red dragon hastily pushed off with its hind legs, leaping into the air.

Once it returned to the skies, it would be unstoppable!

Yet, just as the flying dragon’s feet left the ground, a streak of fiery light instantly pierced through its skull!

The dragon’s head, though not large in proportion to its body and covered in fine scales, was protected by a thick layer of keratin beneath its armor and an incredibly sturdy skull shielding its fragile brain.

Its head was the most heavily fortified part of its body, yet at this moment, it offered no resistance, as if it were made of paper.

The red dragon shuddered violently, its newly unfurled wings drooping limply.

With its last ounce of strength, it turned its head to gaze at the black dragon hovering in the sky, despair evident in its eyes.

Boom!

In the next instant, the head of this near-ninth-level fierce beast exploded, scattering red, white, and black matter in all directions.

Its colossal body crashed to the ground, collapsing a nearby building under its weight.

“Aaaargh!”

The black dragon, witnessing this from above, let out a roar of anguish and fury, its body erupting in flames as it entered a frenzied state.

But three streaks of fiery light shot toward it in rapid succession, targeting its head and torso.

Though driven to madness by the death of its companion, the black dragon’s instincts as a higher-level fierce beast remained intact—it immediately sensed the imminent threat.

Without hesitation, it plunged toward the ground, attempting to evade the incoming streaks of light.

Yet, how could arrows fired by Wang Chen, empowered by the realm of the Supreme and the might of the Sunset Bow, be so easily dodged?

The arrow aimed at the black dragon’s head missed its mark, but the other two struck its lower abdomen and right hind leg, unleashing their destructive power within its body.

Bang! Bang!

The areas struck by the arrows erupted into clouds of blood mist, causing the black dragon to lose its balance and crash to the ground.

With a deafening crash, a massive crater formed in the long street.

“Roar!”

The severely wounded black dragon, dragging its wounded leg, struggled to rise from the pit.

Just then, a figure soared through the air and landed before it in an instant.

It was Wang Chen!

At the sight of this "little human," the black dragon’s eyes narrowed, and a wave of fear coursed through its body, causing it to tremble.

This top-tier fierce beast had never encountered a human who posed such a grave threat!

Without a second thought, it opened its massive mouth, flames surging in its throat.

But before the black dragon could unleash its dragon flames, Wang Chen leaped high into the air and delivered a devastating punch to its nose.

Boom!

The black dragon’s nose, the most vulnerable part of its head, was instantly reduced to mush and blood under Wang Chen’s overwhelming fist power, its bones shattered into fragments.

The black dragon recoiled in agony, and the flames it had yet to release were ignited by the invading force of the punch, exploding within its mouth.

Boom!
