Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Pentagon
The blue dragon looked at Lu Zhen with indifference like it was looking at an ant. Each of its scales contained unimaginable destructive power, its body spanning for a hundred meters and each of its claws was sharp and dangerous. What was more surprising was that it had five claws which was perplexing because dragons were known to only have four claws. This dragon was called the Pentagon.
ROOOAAARRR!!!
Its roar shook the ground and pushed the flaming lizard a few feets back. It was obvious that this dragon was more powerful than the flaming lizard. The temperature suddenly increased, it increased so much that the air was literally burning. The flaming lizard felt that the dragon was provoking it so it became aggressive.
The dragon only looked at it with indifference. The dragon was not doing this on purpose but because the Heavens had no emotions, in front of them, everything was insignificant and beneath them. This is why people usually said that the Heavens were fair, it was because in front of them, all insects are equal.
While the five hundred meter flaming lizard was coldly looking at the dragon, the dragon moved at lightning speed and struck the flaming monster with its claw. The flaming monster was sent flying and crashed on the ground.
The flaming monster slowly got up and shook its head, it was obvious that that attack was a bit overwhelming for it. It coldly looked at the air with its body trembling all over. One would think that the flaming beast was terrified of the dragon but that wasn't the case. It seemed to despise the dragon looking down on it from above.
ROOOAAARRR!!!
A roar that was neither that of the dragon or lion sounded out, it then flapped its wings and appeared in front of the dragon but before it could attack, it was sent flying with another claw attack but this one was imbued with lightning, it's body became numb as it flew in the air and unfortunately for it, the Pentagon moved at lightning speed arriving behind its back and slammed it away with its tail.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The flaming beast was beaten up mid air, not giving it the chance to reach the ground, it's like the dragon was playing a pinball game with it.
Its anger rose every time it was sent flying in the air, this time, after being sent flying. It rotated and just as the dragon showed up, it got attacked by the long tail. Theflaming lizard was p*ssed off that it raised the temperature to a level where the ground turned red and melted.
ROOOAAARRR!!!
The flaming lizard was asking for a direct confrontation. The two beasts looked at each other again, they then clashed. The dragon coiled itself around the flaming lizard and released large amounts of lightning. It was trying to immobilize and paralyze the lizard but how could the flaming lizard accept that.
Its flames suddenly turned a deep red and they burnt the lightning thst was trying to enter its body.
It then bit down on one of the dragon's claws. The mouth of the flaming lizard was like molten lava.
The dragon roared in pain as its claw was slowly being melted. It then bit the flaming lizard's left rub.
ROOOAAARRR!
Both lizard and dragon had sunk their teeth on their opponent. One was releasing terrifying lightning and the other releasing lava where they were being bitten.
The dragon then wrapped its body around the flaming lizard like a python that had caught its prey and tightened itself. Every time the flaming lizard breathed out, the dragon would tighten its grip making it hard for the lizard to breathe.
The flaming lizard then plunged its horns in the abdomen of the dragon, making it shriek in pain. The dragon's abdomen changed in colour. Its abdomen changed from blue to white. The amazing thing was that the dragon didn't bleed since it was made of Heavenly energy that had solidified but the unbelievable thing was the strength of the flaming lizard's horns.
For them to penetrate the dragon scales was really something else. The red area kept expanding and the dragon had little to no choice but to let the flaming lizard go but before it did that, it broke both wings of the flaming lizard.
The flaming lizard shrieked in pain as it fell on the ground. The dragon then opened its mouth and the energy in the surroundings gathered towards its mouth. A blue ball formed and it kept expanding. It expanded until it was the size of an ostrich egg.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Lightning energy moved around it like snakes. It then swallowed the ball and its throat lit blue. The moment it opened its mouth, lightning poured down like rain and bombarded the flaming lizard. The lightning bolts were so many that dodging was impossible.
The flaming lizard also attacked the dragon with fire balls but it was pointless since the dragon easily dodged them. The flaming lizard became irritated as it was the one who was receiving injuries.
Ting!Ting! Ting!
Sounds of metals clashing rang out. Then one by one, chains rose from the flaming lizard's body like snakes awakened from their slumber. There were dozens of them and they were all attached to the flaming lizard's body.
Whoosh!
They suddenly flew towards the dragon in the air. The dragon flew higher as chains approached it. It wanted to stand above the chain's length but unfortunately for it, they became longer as it flew higher. It then tried to escape but one chain rolled itself around its hind claw at breakneck speed. The dragon felt its leg power decline. The chains were coupled with sealing power.
The dragon exerted more pressure on its claw and broke free. The chains unrelentlessly pursued it like predators hunting prey. The dragon knew that once it got tangled up by these chains, its ending wouldn't be good. It flew higher and higher until It reached the Tribulation Clouds. It then drew upon its power and its throat lit blue. It looked like it was condensing all its energy to its throat.
The flaming lizard knew that nothing good would come from the dragon. It stood on its claws and its tail hung on the deep dark hole.
Its horns started burning with a deep red colour. A small red flame formed between its horns. The flaming lizard's whole body turned deep red.
Inside the hole, the flaming lizard's tail had an attraction force to it. Red particles lit the dark hole as they flew up. They then entered the flaming lizard's tail, stripes formed all over its body and each stripe lit as energy moved around its body.
The energy coursed through its body and reached the horns where it was used to increase the fire's size. Time passed, the dragon's throat had swelled up like that of a frog's and the flaming lizard had a ball that was half its body size. The temperature around the ball was like that of the sun.
