Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 640 - 638: The Fall

"Ants truly do not know their place!"

The Dark Dragon’s remaining eye was devoid of emotion, cold as ice.

Its body undulated and continuously deployed True Dragon techniques, unleashing waves of murderous intent that exploded in the air. At the same time, its claws danced wildly, often shattering the void and injuring people from afar. Even though it appeared as if countless Human Clan cultivators were besieging the Dark Dragon, in truth, only Ning Tianyi and Ning Daoran had wounded it, while the other cultivators barely broke through its defenses.

On the contrary, Human Clan cultivators were being flung out in waves, some severely injured and others dying directly in the Dark Dragon Flame, a truly tragic scene. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

"Clatter~~"

As rocks tumbled and the Earth Gold Cauldron transformed into a wisp of light that entered his body, Ning Daoran finally sat up somewhat dispirited amidst a pile of rubble.

He was left a bit dazed by the Dark Dragon’s strike, and although he had the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture for protection, his opponent was a Demon King comparable to the Divinity Transformation Stage, which wasn’t something Ning Daoran, at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, could withstand in a head-on clash.

"Something’s wrong..."

He furrowed his brow, sensing the condition of the Blood-drinking Sword.

The Blood-drinking Sword continued to whirl and grind within the Dark Dragon’s right eye socket, but it hadn’t absorbed any flesh or blood. Instead, the sword continuously shredded the endless tissue, unable to penetrate deeper into the Dark Dragon’s body through the eye socket.

Moreover, what the Blood-drinking Sword touched wasn’t flesh, but rather resembled withered vines.

Through the Blood-drinking Sword, Ning Daoran caught a fleeting glimpse of the situation inside the Dark Dragon.

Indeed, it had no flesh and blood; its interior was severely crystallized. Its ability to move and spew Dark Dragon Flame was due to the veins inside, which had aged into withered vines, severely fibrosed, surviving only by relying on the Dragon Soul’s essence.

This discovery left Ning Daoran profoundly shaken.

Flesh is weak, mechanical ascension!

The Dark Dragon was following this path; given a few more centuries of cultivation, its entire body would become crystal and steel, veins and blood vessels turned into vines. With a breath of Dragon Energy to sustain life, a fusion of Dragon Soul and crystal, and the awakening of some Mechanical Soul, wouldn’t it be invincible in the world by then?

However, Ning Daoran thought of a clever strategy that might be able to kill this Dark Dragon!

...

"Fellow cultivators, charge together!"

Ning Daoran soared into the sky, wielding the Big Green Dragon in an invincible manner.

"Fellow Daoist Jianjia, this is wonderful!"

Several cultivators from Sangyu Country were thrilled: "Fellow Daoist is right; attacking together might give us a chance to eliminate this Evil Dragon!"

In no time, over a hundred magical treasures and spiritual treasures attacked the Dark Dragon from all directions.

Ning Daoran held his spear high and struck downwards!

"Die!"

However, the Dark Dragon saw clearly and suddenly spewed a breath of Dark Dragon Flame, burning Ning Daoran into ashes in mid-air!

"Brother..."

In the distance, Ning Mingyu was stunned.

Who would believe that the battle-hardened Independent Practitioner Jianjia would be instantly killed?

Yet, amidst the ashes, two figures "pong pong" bloomed outward, both still Ning Daoran, and identical in appearance.

"Hmm?"

The Dark Dragon’s eyes turned icy, sneering, "Did not expect such a clever paperfolk technique to exist, but paperfolk are still paperfolk, mere trivial skills, nothing that can grace the grand stage! Boy, you’re interesting, but that’s all; prepare to die!"

Another wave of Dark Dragon Flame swept across.

The two Ning Daorans were burnt to ashes, but three more emerged instantly, all wielding the Big Green Dragon, with similar auras, attacking the Dark Dragon’s head from three directions.

"Courting death!"

The Dark Dragon suddenly raised its right claw, dividing one of the Ning Daorans into three parts, then snapping its head up to crush the second Ning Daoran with its maw. However, at that moment, the third Ning Daoran "shua" rushed into the Dark Dragon’s wounded eye socket, and upon touching the vine-like veins, immediately activated the Returning to Nature Level Wood Escape Technique!

"Shua~~~"

Inside the Dark Dragon, Ning Daoran escaped rapidly!

Behind him, golden prohibitions surged with radiance!

Only then did the Dark Dragon realize its flaw: Human cultivators could use Wood Escape Technique to enter its body, how could this be? Its shell was invincible in the Human World, but if someone rampaged through its innards, not even a celestial could save it!

Hence, the Dark Dragon’s internal prohibitions activated one by one, attempting to trap Ning Daoran.

However, the speed of Ning Daoran’s Wood Escape Technique was too fast, always a step ahead of the prohibitions. In the blink of an eye, he had passed through the long dragon neck, heading straight for the heart!

...

"Junior Brother Ning!"

Outside, the already injured True Monarch Du’e and Longque Wanderer shouted in anguish.

"Brother..."

Ning Mingyu stood dumbly in the distance, tears silently falling.

"Hmm? Something’s not right..."

Ning Tianyi, the most perceptive, furrowed his brow and said in a deep voice, "Young Friend Ning wasn’t killed by the Dark Dragon; he’s already inside the Dark Dragon’s belly. Everyone, don’t worry, keep attacking. Whatever Young Friend Ning intends to do, our external assault can cover him!"

"Is it true?!"

A group of Great Cultivators once again showed joy and immediately launched a frenzied assault.

Even those Sangyu Country Great Cultivators, who previously hated Ning Daoran to the core, changed their tune.

"Fellow Daoist Jianjia is truly our Human Clan’s hero! Let us fight together; we shall cooperate with Fellow Daoist to slay this dragon and rid our Human Clan’s Cultivation World of a great scourge!"

"Fellow Daoist Jianjia is a true hero; this old man greatly admires you!"

...

Ning Daoran knew nothing of the outside world’s situation.

His focus was solely on how to slay the Dark Dragon, and by this time, he had flown into its central core, where a cluster of withered vine-like blood vessels connected. At the center was the Dark Dragon’s heart!

By now, its heart had crystallized into a bright crystal. In reality, the Dark Dragon’s physical body had long since perished, surviving solely through the Dragon Soul’s struggle.

Faced with a heart and blood vessels akin to broken cotton, the solution was simple—burn it all down!

However, ordinary Human World’s fire might not be able to ignite a top-tier Demon Beast like the Dark Dragon. So Ning Daoran, without a moment’s hesitation, extracted a fiery red seed from the Fiery Sun Divine Tree of the Divine Soul World.

Using the Divine Soul Fire was enough to burn everything!

"Boy..."

At the moment when the Fiery Sun Divine Tree Seed appeared in Ning Daoran’s palm, the Dark Dragon’s body trembled, realizing that things had gone badly, and said gravely, "Young friend...Young... Little Daoist...let’s talk this over, there’s no deep hatred between us, why fight to the death? If you agree to spare me, I’m willing to give all the treasures I’ve collected over the years to you..."

"How will I spare you?" Ning Daoran asked.

"You’re jesting, Fellow Daoist..."

The Dark Dragon seemed awkward: "Fellow Daoist, simply Wood Escape out following my body tissues and leaving my body will count as sparing me, I beg you..."

"Ridiculous."

Ning Daoran said lightly, "Once I leave, you’ll immediately seal your body, and I’ll never have the chance to Wood Escape back in. Then you’ll slap me to death, and where will my soul go, to the Heavenly Court to complain?"

"You... I..."

The Dark Dragon felt pained, realizing that this person was no fool.

"Vanish now, Fellow Daoist."

Ning Daoran lifted his hand and flicked out the Fiery Sun Divine Tree Seed.

"Shua~~~"

A raging flame immediately ignited from the Dark Dragon’s heart and swiftly spread throughout its vine-like veins and blood vessels, turning the entire Dark Dragon into a Fire Dragon in a short moment.

"Ah ah ah~~~"

In ear-splitting wails, the Dark Dragon’s body convulsed and twisted in great agony.

The Fiery Sun Divine Tree Seed was burning not only the body but also the Dark Dragon’s Dragon Soul!

Inside the giant dragon, Ning Daoran used the Nine Yang Furnace Divine Technique for protection, continuously flying towards the dragon’s mouth.

...

Outside.

Ning Tianyi stood with one hand behind him, motioning for everyone to step back.

The death of the Dark Dragon was already a certainty; any further casualties on their side would be needless.

With one hand behind him, Ning Tianyi squinted at the twisted body of the Dark Dragon being burned, eyes filled with admiration. Without a doubt, this was Ning Daoran’s handiwork, certainly the work of his so-called Flame Seed.

To dismantle the Dark Dragon from within, only someone like Ning Daoran could do such a thing.

"Fellow Daoist Jianjia..."

"Fellow Daoran..."

All around, countless Nascent Soul Great Cultivators watched the Dark Dragon, some worried, some delighted.

"Brother..."

Ning Mingyu flew to her father’s side and said, "Dad, brother, he..."

"Nothing to worry about; Young Friend Ning’s aura is intact."

Ning Tianyi sighed inwardly; his Dharma Image had lost an arm, his body and blood were damaged, yet his precious daughter showed no concern for him, worrying only about this brother, leaving Ning Tianyi heartbroken.

"Shua~~"

Not long after, a streak of light dashed out from the dragon’s mouth; it was Ning Daoran, bathed in fire, who floated in the air, shaking the flames from his body with a gesture.

"Fellow Daoran!"

A Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator from Sangyu Country clasped his hands: "Thanks to Fellow Daoran, we were able to slay this dragon; your contributions...truly put us to shame!"

"Indeed!"

A Fairy with an immortal charm said, "I am Murong Chan Yue, the Palace Master of Jade Girl Palace in Xia Country. Today, seeing Fellow Daoran’s work is truly admirable. My Cave Mansion is also on Guixu City’s Main Peak; once this matter is resolved, I hope you can visit my Cave Mansion."

...

Longque Wanderer and True Monarch Du’e exchanged glances, feeling their eyes turn green with envy. Despite their many years of cultivation, they had never received an invitation from any female cultivator to their Cave Mansion or boudoir.

What’s more, the other party was Murong Chan Yue, one of the top ten beauties of Xia Country’s Cultivation World, which shook their Daoist Heart!

Ning Daoran made a light bow towards Murong Chan Yue but did not respond, simply turning to watch the continuously burning body of the Dark Dragon.

Unfortunately, its body’s death lingered for so many years that those precious fifth-order materials had withered, dragon scales, dragon horns, and dragon claws had all turned into incredibly hard stone, losing their value for refining. Otherwise, he would shamelessly ask Ning Tianyi for more materials.

Yet at this moment, the skull of the Dark Dragon among the sea of fire cracked open, and immediately treasure essence Qi flowed out. Lifted by the flaming heat, treasures guarded by the essence Qi floated upwards, hovering above the sea of fire.

’Loot drop?’

Ning Daoran almost laughed out loud, not expecting such a setting to exist in the Cultivation World.
