"Ah..."
Bai Ye's voice deepened, a whimper-like low hiss escaping his throat.
The improvement in physical attributes was the most direct sensation, but to kill a dragon, physical attributes weren't that important.
Even with enhanced physical attributes, Bai Ye didn't believe he could directly contend with the colossal beast before him with brute force alone.
What was important was…
The 10% increase in all ability effects, and the 15% increase in weapons.
The Goro Goro no Mi was terrifying enough; even a 10% boost was very significant.
Secondly, the Thunder Fang characteristic of the Thunder Fang Beast naturally complemented the Goro Goro no Mi, so the 15% weapon boost could stack with the 10% ability boost, thereby enhancing the power of Bai Ye's attacks.
Of course, there was also…
"Darkness Devour!"
Bai Ye suddenly thrust his hand forward, and in the next instant, a shadowy vortex appeared, spinning and growing in the air like a pitch-black black hole.
Then…
Everything around it was sucked towards the black hole!
The already dilapidated building completely collapsed, countless rubble fragments sucked in and crushed into dust.
The dragon's massive body was not spared; it was continuously pulled by the suction, and upon contact with the black hole…
The dragon's back instantly tore open, its solid armor proving no match, shredded instantly, with large amounts of blood gushing out.
A terrifying amount of power!
The Demon God's ability, while seemingly simple, was terrifying because Darkness Devour could ignore all defenses and tear through them.
However, compared to the dragon's immense size, the wounds torn open were obviously too small.
Bai Ye needed something more terrifying…
An attack capable of completely cleaving that body!
Bai Ye's fingertips brushed against the Thunder Fang Beast, and then…
Zzzt!
The sound of surging electricity erupted, and countless arcs of electricity enveloped the Thunder Fang Beast.
Pitch black in color.
Perhaps influenced by the Demon God's power, the generated electricity had turned completely black, coiling around the sword's blade.
In the next moment, Bai Ye raised his sword high!
At this moment, due to Darkness Devour, the dragon's body was being pulled by the black hole.
Although it struggled, attempting to break free from the suction, the immense force still bound the dragon tightly.
With such an opportunity, why hesitate?
"Thunder Fang!"
Bai Ye roared, and the raised Thunder Fang Beast slashed downwards with all his might.
Boom!
The black electricity coiling around the Thunder Fang Beast exploded instantly, plummeting downwards.
The black electricity scattered and condensed, scattered and condensed…
Then…
It gradually expanded, becoming immense.
A colossal black lightning blade appeared, shimmering in the air.
With the enhancement of the Demon God's power, with each leap of the lightning arc, the surrounding space was torn apart.
Void rifts appeared one after another, quickly covering the surrounding space.
Like fierce beasts baring their fangs, they appeared ferocious and terrifying.
The next second…
With a boom, the black lightning blade struck the dragon's back.
The lightning blade shattered instantly, and countless black electric currents clung to the dragon's armor, continuously spreading.
Simultaneously, as the black lightning spread along the dragon's body, the hardened armor began to peel off piece by piece.
In an instant, the dragon's back was a bloody mess.
In excruciating pain, the dragon struggled more fiercely. Around its body, red bubbles suddenly appeared.
New Kakuja!
From around its body, blade-like limbs grew one after another.
Beneath the shattered armor, pairs of blood-red eyes slowly opened.
A terrifying aura, an extremely oppressive presence.
The last part of its body, hidden beneath the ground, finally revealed itself and swept towards Bai Ye.
*Puff!*
The instant it made contact, the sharp edges of its limbs sliced open Bai Ye's waist and abdomen.
In an instant, Bai Ye's body seemed to be split in two, and then…
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
The dragon's body propelled Bai Ye, smashing into the building to the side, pulverizing its outer wall, but it didn't stop, continuing forward, forward, ever forward…
The walls of the building continued to shatter.
Aside from the pain in his back, Bai Ye felt nothing but continuous impact and pulverization.
Until…
Rumble!
Another building was severed in half, tilting and collapsing downwards.
Bai Ye was flung out, tumbling in the air. Then, his massive fiery wings spread out, suspending him in the air.
"Your defensive item, the Black Order uniform, has been completely destroyed."
The clothes Bai Ye had manifested from Steel Slime were completely torn apart, turning into ragged pieces of mud clinging to him.
Blood dripped from the corner of Bai Ye's mouth, and his abdomen was completely cut open, his internal organs almost visible.
His chest had completely caved in, and one arm was unnaturally twisted, its bones clearly shattered.
But…
Bai Ye reached out and touched the wound on his waist.
As his palm brushed over it, the wound rapidly healed, turning into a scar in the blink of an eye, and the scar was also gradually fading.
His caved-in chest also puffed back out.
Bai Ye glanced at his arm.
*Crack, crack!*
His completely inverted arm made crisp cracking sounds as it slowly twisted back into place.
Super regeneration from the Demon God's power!
As long as he wasn't dead, any injury could be instantly healed!
It was a shame that the Black Order uniform was utterly destroyed. The things manifested from Steel Slime could continuously repair their "durability," but if their durability was reduced to zero in one go, they were still rendered useless!
Apart from that…
Bai Ye glanced at the status screen. Six minutes left.
Bai Ye looked at the dragon, still being restrained by the suction of Darkness Devour, but not completely immobilized.
Its back bore terrifying wounds from the lightning blade attack, but the dragon also possessed formidable regenerative abilities. While not as monstrous as super regeneration, certain parts of its body were visibly recovering.
At this rate, it would be difficult to kill the dragon within the time limit.
Thinking this, Bai Ye reached out forward.
"Darkness Devour!"
As Bai Ye's low voice echoed, a vortex of light and shadow appeared in the air again, spinning, and then transforming into a black hole.
The terrifying suction emanated from the center of the black hole, furiously tearing at everything around it.
