Chapter 246: Chapter 159: The Invincible Heart, Susanoo's Great Buddha, One Man Extinguishes Four Nations! (4K)_2

Xue Jing smiled and said, "I'll do my best."

Perhaps it was the continuous victory along the way that had nurtured an unbeatable mindset... Despite facing an unprecedented, far more terrifying monster than himself, not a trace of cowardice existed in his heart.

It was as if he wasn't about to confront a Pureblood Dragon Species but was going out for a casual stroll to the supermarket, without a hint of fear.

He didn't know whether this mindset was good or bad.

The emotion of fear has its negative effects, but it also has positive ones.

Excessive confidence has its advantages and disadvantages as well.

However, so far, it seemed that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

At least, he wouldn't make any mistakes in his actions due to wavering in the middle of a battle.

"Only with an unbeatable heart can you throw an unbeatable punch..."

Xue Jing gazed at his fist clenched tightly in front of him.

"Believe in your heart, for it is your magic!"

...

Xue Jing wandered around the valley within the Tree Dragon territory, scanning his surroundings with his eyes, occasionally squatting down to lift the crevices of rocks, as if searching for something.

"What are you looking for?" the Mirror Person asked.

Xue Jing used his strength to flip over a large rock and said, "Dragon Thunder Plant."

"I have to push my current combat power to its limit..."

Saying this, Xue Jing's gaze shifted towards a small forest in the distance.

Between the cracks of the trees and weeds, he could vaguely see a hint of gold.

With a step, he vanished from his spot.

Soon, he entered the small forest and quickly located the source of that golden glimmer.

A lotus-like golden flower was blooming between the roots of a large tree.

Xue Jing touched the crown of the flower, activating the Plant Pact, and immediately a 'Pact Seal' appeared on the lotus.

With a thought, he reversed the growth of the contracted golden lotus, retracting all petals and roots, condensing into a golden seed. Xue Jing picked up the seed and put it in his pocket.

He opened his panel and saw that the skill name, [Plant Pact], had dimmed slightly.

"The more the better. I need as many Dragon Thunder Plants as possible to deal with Dragon Thunder."

Xue Jing thought for a moment and clicked to upgrade [Plant Pact], spending eight hundred points of Divinity.

[Plant Pact Lv5 (51/1200)]

Seeing the skill name light up again in pale gold, Xue Jing nodded.

"Continue searching."

...

Three hours later.

Xue Jing stood on the bank of a river, looking upstream at the massive Dragon Breed leisurely bending down to drink water.

Its rough bark-like dragon scales, much like the fat Tree Dragon's, along with its nearly twenty-meter-long body, differed from the Tree Dragon in that this Guardian Dragon had clumps of round, colorful crowns all over its body, creating a somewhat terrifying sight.

Xue Jing took a deep breath and reached for the pocket on the front of his tactical suit.

Then, he pulled out... a handful of seeds.

The seeds varied in size, the largest being about the size of a walnut, the smallest about the size of a grain of rice, numbering around a dozen.

The commonality between them was that all the seeds were shining with a golden luster.

"Well, let's test the effects," Xue Jing said.

He lifted his foot, adopting the posture of throwing a baseball, and after a brief gathering of power, he hurled it mightily at the Crown Dragon!

Having reached Lv8, nearly Lv9 in [Aiming], the accuracy need not be mentioned.

The dozen or so seeds covered the Crown Dragon's body with incredible precision.

The moment the seeds hit the Crown Dragon, Xue Jing snapped his fingers.

"Snap—" Find out more on m-vl-em-pyr

Suddenly, a hair-raising scene unfolded.

Countless thick golden roots, golden vines, golden flowers, golden thorns, golden leaves...

"Gurgle, gurgle—"

The densely packed golden plants instantly grew wildly over the Crown Dragon's entire body, writhing as they enveloped its massive form and tightly bound it.

"Hiss—So disgusting." The Mirror Person in the black bracelet couldn't help but tremble and cover his hands, vigorously rubbing away the goosebumps on his arms.

Xue Jing also felt the scene was somewhat nauseating, but it didn't impact his actions.

Dark Flame burned on his body, transforming into a magnificent full-body Dark Enchained Armor that wrapped him entirely, with hints of Dark Flame adorning the armor, making him appear like a Death Knight who had emerged from the Netherworld.

"Roar—!!"

An enraged Dragon's Chant erupted from within the writhing mass of golden plants, while the entire mass also violently shook, with the Crown Dragon inside struggling to break free.

But after the Plant Pact reached Lv5, the strength of the controlled plants had greatly increased. At this moment, a massive cluster formed by over a dozen Dragon Thunder Plant seeds had its combined strength so ridiculously high that the Crown Dragon was firmly bound for the time being, completely unable to break free.

"The best way to deplete its Life Force is to attack its Core Organ; first, locate the Core Organ," the Mirror Person reminded.

Xue Jing nodded, took a step, and leaped toward the Crown Dragon.

At a flick of his fingers, the mass of golden plants automatically writhed open a 'single-person passage' for him, revealing a small part of the Crown Dragon's body.

He clasped his hands together, and Dark Flame gathered in his palms, forming a huge black spiral drill bit.

"—Golden Scales Transformation!"

Power surged, and Xue Jing's armored body began to spin rapidly, using the drill bit formed by his hands as the point, and spun relentlessly on the scales of the Crown Dragon.

A series of crackling noises followed; the rough, bark-like dragon scales were no match for such formidable Piercing Force, and were directly penetrated. Xue Jing, like a drilling machine, burrowed through flesh and blood, delving deep into the Crown Dragon.

"Roar—!!"

Excruciating pain made the Crown Dragon cry out in anguish. In its fury, one of the red crowns on its body burst open, emitting a 'puff' sound, and countless pale-red gases flowed out from the exploded crown.

"Sizzle—"

Inside the mass of golden plants, there came a sizzling sound, like that of acid corroding an object.

What was once an incredibly sturdy mass of golden plants suddenly began to emit plumes of smoke, the whole mass gradually swelling and loosening.

Soon after, the crowns on the body of the Crown Dragon began to explode one after another. With each explosion, the hissing intensified, and more smoke emerged from the mass.

Eventually, the golden plant mass darkened as if a wet towel were rotting, its previously firm binding now limp, falling off the Crown Dragon in pieces to the ground.

Having burrowed into the Crown Dragon and sensing that something was amiss, Xue Jing did not continue searching for the Core Organ. Instead, he immediately burst forth with the force of Whirlwind Thunder, launching himself from the hole he had made and quickly retracing his steps, exiting the Crown Dragon's body.

Just as he left, the Crown Dragon, released from its bindings, suddenly unleashed bolts of golden lightning from all over its body. The intense glare of the lightning completely enveloped it in a spectacle of booming thunder and flashing light.

"Roar—!!"

Within the Dragon's Chant, the Crown Dragon fixed its gaze on the small black insect not far away, its vertical pupils seething with rage.

Seeing this, Xue Jing immediately raised his palm.

Dozens of golden seeds promptly came to his side, multiplying and growing countless plants that intertwined to form a massive golden plant sphere around him.

The next moment, dozens of golden thunderbolts struck at Xue Jing relentlessly.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom—"

The plant sphere shattered under the assault of the Dragon Thunder but, being exceptionally thick, it didn't break through.

On seeing this, the Mirror Person's spirit lifted:

"Good! You have basically resolved the Dragon Thunder, the most difficult power to contend with from a Pureblood Dragon Species."

"The hope of defeating a Pureblood Dragon Species has greatly increased!"

Xue Jing did not reply but brought his palms together, controlling the plant sphere to rapidly multiply.

Countless plants came together, their thick roots forming the body, vines turning into clothing, thorns entwining around the surface, and petals adorning the limbs and head...

In no time at all, they had formed a colossal Great Buddha statue nearly thirty meters tall, standing upright with eighteen arms growing from its back.

Xue Jing was held aloft in one of the Buddha's hands; his gaze intensified as he began to fully mobilize the Shadow Flame.

Numerous streams of shadowy energy were extracted, transformed into Dark Flame, burning across the Buddha's entire body, eventually forming a massive and perfectly fitting Dark Enchained Armor to clothe it.

"I've been wanting to try this for a while now," Xue Jing said with evident interest.

"Susanoo's Great Buddha, one man to obliterate four nations!"
