Dragon Tamer
Chapter 966 - Chapter 966 Chapter 970 The Hardest Part

Chapter 966: Chapter 970: The Hardest Part Chapter 966: Chapter 970: The Hardest Part This fierce claw had caused the Dragon-Eating Eagle’s entire skeleton to fracture, and its body tumbled through most of the mountain forest, crushing countless oblivious Little Demons along the way.

The Corpse Mountain Giant Ape let out a bloodthirsty roar as it fiercely pounced forward, but it was dodged by the Refining Ash Black Dragon. The Black Dragon then counterattacked with another explosive shattering Dragon Claw. Aided by the might of the Ancient Dragon Warfare Skills, this full-powered claw shattered the giant bones on the body of the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape even further.

Bones tumbled down like rocks during a mountainside collapse, and the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape, howling in pain, hurriedly scampered aside, clumsily trying to pick up its scattered bones to reattach them to its body.

Seeing that his two Demon Saint brothers were injured, Lin Kun had to join the fight to alleviate their pressure.

However, Lin Kun was the one with the lowest cultivation base among them. If not for his thick-skinned, rock-hard shell, he would have probably been skinned alive by the Predator’s Wild Breath exuding from the Refining Ash Black Dragon!

Lin Kun also possessed some Divine Skills, one of which allowed him to swallow a mountain forest whole, then spit it out like a violent mudslide.

The Black Dragon, being a dragon, hated it when someone spewed anything in front of it.

Seeing Lin Kun spew out a violent mudslide, the Refining Ash Black Dragon simply didn’t dodge, taking a deep breath as its belly and chest bulged!

“Oh~~ roar!!!!!!!!!!!”

With a huge blast of super Dragon Flame spewing from its furnace-like stomach, the Refining Ash Black Dragon erupted like a black millennia-old volcanic mountain venting its molten fury. To this wilderness, it was a black flame disaster!!

This blast of Dragon Flame turned the mudslide back upon itself and even blasted Lin Kun’s enormous body dozens of miles away. The path along which Lin Kun fell was marked with trails of terrifying charred traces, as if black flames had swept through gorges or as if an army of raging fire beasts had trampled over the region.

Lin Kun was charred all over. To Zhu Minglang’s eyes, he looked like a giant roasted fish, and the waft of that burned aroma was enticing enough to suggest a sprinkling of salt and pepper for perfection.

The Dragon-Eating Eagle had regained its composure and was now flying furiously over the forest. Every time it swooped past, it emitted a harsh sonic boom, creating terrifying rifts that sliced long gashes into the woodland.

Its attacks came and went, and with each aerial slash, the Refining Ash Black Dragon evaded, appearing as a muscular yet agile dragon. Its dodging technique was also incredibly simple – the Tyrant Dragon Roll. Despite its legs not being particularly long, its rolling was more flexible than some pangolins, and had spikes grown on its spine, it could genuinely execute a no-frills battlefield maneuver like the Bone-Spiked War Chariot!

“Oh!!!!!!!”

The Refining Ash Black Dragon, unable to fly, stood in the devastated forest and roared provocatively at the Dragon-Eating Eagle after dodging its aerial assault.

Come down here, boy!

The Dragon-Eating Eagle, being a ferocious bird Demon Saint, wasn’t foolish enough to engage in close combat on land with this overlord. So, it changed its attack method and began spreading a kind of bone nail feathers over the ground from its wings. The dense shower of bone nail feathers peppered the ground, piercing it full of holes.

The Refining Ash Black Dragon stood where the bone nail feathers fell thickest. The sharp feathers struck its body with a series of clanging sounds, yet the dragon’s flesh armor was so thick that, despite being an Ancient Dragon with hardly a few Dragon Scales, its flesh and hide were harder than some mysterious iron.

Scratching its belly, the Refining Ash Black Dragon eyed the Dragon-Eating Eagle and blew out a big snort.

Master Eagle, your gua sha feels quite good. You’ve scraped off all the old dead skin – just two words: immensely satisfying!

How could the Dragon-Eating Eagle not see the Refining Ash Black Dragon’s provocation? It was fuming, with blue-green Demon Saint heat steaming off its body.

The Dragon-Eating Eagle realized that some spells were unlikely to harm this Ancient Dragon. Being a God-level Demon Saint, its strongest weapon was its pointed beak!

“Yee!!!!!!!!!!”

With a harsh shriek, the Dragon-Eating Eagle told the Refining Ash Black Dragon that it would definitely crack open its skull and suck its brains dry!!

Though determined, the Dragon-Eating Eagle dared not engage in close combat with the Refining Ash Black Dragon. So it began to furiously command its two other Demon Saint brothers to attack the Black Dragon from both sides.

The Corpse Mountain Giant Ape and Lin Kun had to steel themselves and charge. They tackled the Refining Ash Black Dragon simultaneously, trying desperately to restrain it and prevent it from performing the straightforward Tyrant Dragon Roll.

This was an extremely dangerous move. After all, the Refining Ash Black Dragon’s fierce claws, sharp teeth, and Black Horns were the most formidable weapons. Being a whole level lower in cultivation, one miscalculation could lead to being torn to pieces.

Indeed, the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape and Lin Kun paid a heavy price to lock down the Refining Ash Black Dragon, losing several vital parts in the struggle, especially the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape, which was almost bitten to death.

And just then, the Dragon-Eating Eagle finally launched its deadly strike.

Again, it dove from the sky upside-down. With its slender body, when it folded its wings back, its entire form and the long beak fused into a terrifying Heaven-breaking Bone Spear!!

Still targeting the Refining Ash Black Dragon’s head, the Dragon-Eating Eagle understood that this was the only way to kill the dragon. Once its skull was penetrated, all of the Black Dragon’s powers would be meaningless!

“Oh!!!!!!”

The Refining Ash Black Dragon swayed left and right, trying to shake off the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape that was holding it down, but the Giant Ape seemed ready to risk its life.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Minglang’s expression also turned solemn.

Big Black Tooth was in grave danger. If it could not find a way to escape, it would truly be killed by the Dragon-Eating Eagle. It was clear that the Dragon-Eating Eagle had used this ultimate technique to kill countless powerful members of the Dragon Clan. Moreover, a creature like the Dragon-Eating Eagle naturally preyed on dragons. Its cultivation, its beak, were all designed to penetrate the strong defenses of dragons. Most importantly, it was well aware that the back of a dragon’s skull was a blind spot and a relatively fragile area…

The Dragon Horns of the Refining Ash Black Dragon were positioned more towards the front, which meant that the back of its skull was unprotected.

If this strike hit its mark, death was certain.

Zhu Minglang could intervene now, and with the Sword Spirit Dragon’s current cultivation base, a single sword strike would be enough to slay the Dragon-Eating Eagle.

But as a Dragon Shepherd, since he had decided to tame dragons in this way, he must see it through. It was only through life-and-death combat and struggle that dragon beasts could grow strong. Otherwise, the dragons of the Dragon Shepherd would never be able to compare with the demons and dragons that grew up in the law of the jungle, just like delicate flowers in a courtyard.

Zhu Minglang did not act, but just moved a little closer to the area of combat.

Strictly speaking, Big Black Tooth was the first dragon beast he had encountered on his path to becoming a Dragon Shepherd. It was not particularly talented or of extraordinary lineage, but its nature was exceptionally endearing. It knew how to seize the opportunity when it could lie low and win, and when it needed to stand up, it never hesitated, brave and somewhat crafty.

Maintaining a critical distance, Zhu Minglang took a deep breath and watched quietly.

In the end, the Refining Ash Black Dragon still couldn’t break free of the bonds of the Corpse Mountain Giant Ape and Lin Kun. The Dragon-Eating Eagle dove down like a Heaven-breaking God Spear, sharp and terrifying, with a dreadful bloody and demonic aura twisting into a terrible tornado that clung to the plunging Heaven-breaking Eagle Beak!

The Refining Ash Black Dragon realized it couldn’t dodge.

Even if it weren’t pierced through the skull, just being penetrated through any part of the head would result in instant death.

On the other side, Zhu Minglang had already raised his hand.

But the Refining Ash Black Dragon did not give up, it suddenly lifted its entire dragon face upwards, trying its best not to expose its skull to the attack.

The Dragon-Eating Eagle was even happier to see the Refining Ash Black Dragon using its face to meet its Heaven-breaking Spear Beak, thinking a direct pierce through the face would result in quicker death!

Just at the critical moment, the Refining Ash Black Dragon suddenly split its dragon lips wide open, revealing all its fangs as much as possible, and then clenched them tightly!!

The Refining Ash Black Dragon was once a Big Spirit Crocodile, with a wide distribution of gums; it was no exaggeration to say its face was almost all teeth, especially when it split its dragon lips completely…

The layers of black fangs were the toughest parts of the Refining Ash Black Dragon’s body, far tougher than its claws–these were the teeth of a predator!

Using its fangs as a mask!

Meeting the Dragon-Eating Eagle’s deadly weapon with tightly clenched black fangs!

Zhu Minglang’s hand, raised in mid-air, froze, followed immediately by an exceedingly exaggerated crash. The sound was crisp to the utmost, the sound of the Dragon-Eating Eagle’s beak breaking!!

“Eeek!!!!!!”

The Dragon-Eating Eagle let out an extremely pitiful scream and rolled away in agony.

And the Refining Ash Black Dragon’s teeth were also shattered, but only the outermost row of fangs broke. For the Refining Ash Black Dragon, which still had several rows of reserve fangs, such an injury was hardly worth mentioning.

Although its mouth was full of blood, the Refining Ash Black Dragon had successfully withstood the Dragon-Eating Eagle’s lethal strike, using its black dragon teeth, several times harder than its own body’s flesh armor!

These teeth, which should have been the strongest weapon for tearing apart enemies…

Instead, the Refining Ash Black Dragon quite artistically used them as armor, and that scene was even a bit comical amidst the bloodthirsty battle of giants.

The dragon name Big Black Tooth certainly wasn’t in vain.

Zhu Minglang himself was stunned, and before he could come back to his senses, the Refining Ash Black Dragon had already launched its furious counterattack!

Without its beak, the Dragon-Eating Eagle was largely disabled. In this world, there were not a few who relied on a single move to conquer all; the Dragon-Eating Eagle was one of them. Now that it had lost its most powerful weapon, it was merely a fledgling in front of the Refining Ash Black Dragon; it was brutally abused, with blood splattered all over its feathers, which fell off in patches along with its flesh.
