Chapter 1190: Chapter 1190: Saraf
"Hu Jiu, I’ll leave these people to you to handle! If they can be captured alive, we need to extract information from them about the Dragon Realm." Pei Yan pointed his hand at the people still fighting in the sky and casually said this to Hu Jiu, then he ignored these defeated remnants of the Blood Wolf. They were already at their wit’s end, especially since the escape opportunity vanished right before their eyes, their spirit was nearly crumbled. Pei Yan believed that once Hu Jiu joined the fray, this chaotic battle would soon come to an end.
After saying this, Pei Yan let out a long yawn. Since the fusion of multiple spirit beast bloodlines from the Dragon Realm, he spent most of his time on sickbeds and wheelchairs. After signing the Symbiotic Contract with Hu Jiu, he was unconscious for several days, and upon awakening, he was forced into battle. Up until now, Pei Yan had completely mastered his body and abilities, but after the confrontation with the Candle Dragon earlier, the immense pressure caused him to feel somewhat languished. He needed to move his body to regain his combat readiness.
"Now that all external matters are solved, it’s just between you and me!" Pei Yan moved his neck while stepping in place and swinging his wrist, raising his head to continue speaking to Saraf’s massive dragon figures, "Are you going to fight me in this form? I don’t mind, but your huge size seems quite disadvantaged in battle!"
When Pei Yan unexpectedly attacked him earlier and then dealt with the Blood Poison Giant, Saraf gained further understanding of this young man’s strength. Discarding his underestimation, he transformed his form. The dragon race form holds advantages in group battle and battles among their kin, but when facing human experts, an overly massive body only becomes a target for widespread attacks. Out of caution for this battle, Saraf’s figure repeatedly shrank until he transformed into human form.
Even in human form, he stood over two meters tall. His explosively strong muscles were covered by dark red dragon scales. Two dragon horns protruded forward from both sides of his head, and smoke emerged from his nostrils with each breath, still giving off an intense aura of pressure.
"You truly are an interesting young man. Are everything you just said real? Will the Dragon Realm truly forgive me and stop hunting me down if I defeat you? Who exactly are you? Why should I believe that the Dragon Realm will honor your promise? Also, you carry bloodlines and source energy from my Dragon Realm and even other planes mixed within you. Just now, among that group of people are also those with similar existences. What exactly happened to this world? So many changes have taken place during the years I’ve been sealed?" Saraf, who had been besieged right after his release and forced to fight continuously, finally found the opportunity to voice his confusion.
Pei Yan could understand Saraf’s doubts, scratching his head and hesitating for a moment, he responded with difficulty: "If I had to explain everything to you, it would be too lengthy and troublesome. In short, I’ll say just one thing, sir, the times have changed! If you wish to know more details, after you and I fight, if you manage to survive and capture me alive, or kill me and escape, there will naturally be someone to tell you all about it then! As for whether the Dragon Realm would honor my promise, you saw my conversation with the Ancestral God earlier, right? Our relationship is not ordinary and you can feel it too, and did you see this?" While speaking, the battle in the sky neared its end with Hu Jiu’s participation, Pei Yan casually pointed to Hu Jiu flying chaotically in the sky and continued, "He is the direct descendant birthed after the Ancestral God possessed a beast body, the only direct bloodline, and I am his Symbiotic Contractee. How about it, does this identity seem weighty enough for my words? You hate the Ancestral God, don’t you! Kill me and he dies too! You regain your freedom and indirectly avenge the Ancestral God, two birds with one stone. See how much I consider you!"
Pei Yan now seemed nothing like a warrior about to engage in battle, but rather like an enthusiastic salesman pitching a product to a client. Only Long Jin knew if the opponent accepted the suggestion this devil gave, they would face a very tragic outcome, as this scene has been witnessed more than once at the Sword Discussion Conference.
Unfortunately, Saraf lacked this experience, his information severely delayed from years of sealing. Hearing Pei Yan’s words, he glanced at the somewhat silly Hu Jiu amidst the chaos in the sky. During the battle when Bai Ze controlled him and faced Hu Jiu, he felt threatened by the opponent, not paying close attention to Hu Jiu’s emitted aura until Pei Yan pointed it out.
"Hahahahaha, he’s really the descendant of that old guy. That old fellow did not choose the Dragon Race, no! He didn’t even choose any spirit beast from the two major beast groups but instead chose a mere unintelligent, undeveloped beast as a vessel for passing on his lineage, hahahaha! The descendant of a dignified Lord of the Plane has fallen to the level of being signed in a Symbiotic Contract, this is the funniest joke I’ve heard since I lifted the seal!"
Seeing Saraf’s arrogant mocking stance toward Hu Jiu, Pei Yan’s face immediately darkened upon realizing that now Hu Jiu used human consciousness, Saraf’s words were evidently a humiliation towards Hu Jiu’s mother. Under their Symbiotic Contract, Hu Jiu in the sky sensed such anger, and Pei Yan felt this as well. He paced forward a step and asked, "Funny? Had enough laughter? If you’ve laughed enough, ready to die?"
"Hehehe, you told the Ancestral God earlier you feared I’d be heavily injured in a fight with you, feared I’d die? Fine, let me see how much power you have to support such grand talk!" Saraf read Pei Yan’s anger and raised his hand to provoke him.
Boom!
As soon as these words left Saraf’s mouth, a flash of light and shadow swept past, accompanied by a loud sound from two bodies colliding, echoing through the battlefield. In the smoke stirred up by the collision from the battle’s center, two figures swiftly retreated.
"Oh! Pei Yan actually didn’t have the upper hand!" Long Jin was shocked to see Pei Yan retreat a greater distance and seemed somewhat out of breath.
"Saraf relied on this overpowering body to contend with the Ancestral God for seven days and nights, possessing such strength is no surprise!" Long Taichu was not taken aback by the outcome and explained.
While Long Taichu was not surprised, both battling individuals felt some surprise. Pei Yan looked at his dented fist and slightly numb arm. Saraf’s full-powered combat strength exceeded Pei Yan’s prior expectations. If Nero was the closest opponent in the agility of close combat with him, then the newly unsealed former Saraf was the formidable foe in terms of sheer power. Compared to Nero, who had balanced indicators, Saraf in terms of strength, self-healing, and defense power was the strongest presence Pei Yan had encountered so far. This discovery instantaneously ignited Pei Yan’s competitive spirit.
