Chapter 67

Whooosh! The Dark Drake, unexpectedly, sprayed out Dragon fire; this was no ordinary Dragon fire, and may have been a Dragons natal breath.

A Dragon is never really able to belch out natal breath, unless met with a life threatening situation. A Dragons natal breath had a very debilitating effect on the Dragon, and it took a long time for the Dragon to recover from its side-effects.

The Dragon had been surrounded by several, very strong, fighters, and if the Dragon had continued fighting against them, then he would have, inevitably, died fighting.

So the Dark Drake, as a last resort, out of sheer desperation, spewed out its natal breath.

The fighters who were attacking the Dark Drake, were completely taken by surprise, as they were under the impression that this one was incapable of using Dragon breath.

Dragons rarely ever use their natal breath, and even if they did, the targets rarely ever lived to tell the tale.

This was one of the reasons that a Dragons natal breath was mostly unknown to humans.

It is said, that it would take a Dragon about a week, to recover from the fatigue that the usage of natal breath incurs.

A black colored flame smoldered throughout the battlefield, enveloping many of the fighters in its range, who howled as the fire burnt their bodies.

There were only a very few men, who were able to react in time, and managed to dodge this surprise attack. Most of these fighters were strong into the transformation layer, but even then, they couldnt prevent themselves from sustaining a few injuries in the process.

One of the fighters, who had already attained the transformation layer, found his sleeve stained by the fire. The black fire, quickly, started spreading to the rest of his arm.

Ah! the man quickly took out his sword and chopped his hand off.

If the Dragons natal breath caught someone, then it would spread to the whole being and turn the target in to ash, in no time.

The Dark Drake had been surrounded by at least a hundred men, and the fire had managed to victimize almost ninety of them.

It was a sad and somber funeral, as the bodies of all those people turned to ash, filling the atmosphere with fumes of soot. The smell of it, made the others puke, and puke, and puke.

The few remaining fighters, simply wouldnt dare to go anywhere near the Dark Drake.

However, none of them seemed to be willing to give up just yet, and they continued to stare at the Dragon.

After the ejaculation of the Natal breath, the Dark Drake was feeling extremely weak, but it was obvious to him, that he was still being eyed by the humans.

And so, the Dark Drake, raised his head towards the sky, and roared with all its power, to demonstrate, and brag, its might.

After that, the Dragon decided to flee, and immediately turned around, but unfortunately, he started out in the direction where Bi Fan and his party were standing in wait.

The Dark Drake can breathe fire as well! We should get the hell out of here! Lone Leaf exclaimed, trembling with fear.

After this recent development, the eyes of everyone present, were reflecting the fear of its fire, and a lot of them were considering giving up on the fight, and scattering for the sake of their safety.

The Blue Dragon spoke up: I never thought that this Dragon would be able to breathe fire either, he took them by surprise, and killed so many such powerful men. Lets not take this risk.

Wang Zhong didnt utter a single word, and his face was as wooden as ever.

Bi Fans gaze was attentively fixed on the Dragon, whose eyes showed a hint of squinting, and a smiled crept onto Bi Fans face.

Wang Zhong smiled: Whats the matter brother, did you find something?

According to my observation, this fire that the Dark Drake sprayed out, was his natal breath, which means that he must be very weak at the moment. He seems to have covered it up very well, but If you look closely, you will notice, that even though he is still running at very fast pace, his steps are beginning to waver a bit, and so, I think, that he wont be able to keep this up for long now. Bi Fan explained.

Blue Dragon, Lone Leaf, and Wang Zhong looked closely, and realized that Bi Fans observation was indeed correct.

Wang Zhong agreed: The Dark Drakes steps are, indeed, wavering; So, yes, he might not able to keep this up for a long time. What Brother Bi Fan says, makes sense.

Brother, you have a real talent for detail, youre amazing ah! Lone Leaf complimented.

Blue Dragon: So, now, lets finish him off.

We certainly cannot let the Dragon escape, not when its so weak and vulnerable. But we will have to find a way to finish him off really quickly, otherwise, the men that are still following him, will catch up; and there still a lot of them left. Bi Fan smiled again.

Lone Leaf spoke: Brother Bi Fan, you call the shots, and we will follow you.

Bi Fan thought for a second, and then said: Brother Wang, you will lead Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf, and the three of you will intercept the men that might try to chase the Dragon. And I will take charge of sorting the Dark Drake out. If I succeed, then, the Chimera will take over from you guys, and delay them, while we will try to retreat. Remember, no one should recognize you, and Wang Zhong and Lone Leaf, be extra cautious in that respect.

Dont worry, those people arent going to get to you. Wang Zhong smiled.

Good! Lets get ready. Bi Fan said.

Wang Zhong, Lone Leaf and Blue Dragon set off; they made a slight detour around the Dark Drake, as they got in position to ambush the fighters who were still following the Dragon.

Bi Fan prepared himself; even though the Dragon was fairly weak at the moment, killing it still wouldnt be easy.

Bi Fan prepared a divine essence seal to increase his speed, so he could concentrate the rest of his bodys forces into his attacks.

The Dark Drake was getting closer, and was still going fast.

Bi Fans heart was, ceaselessly, contemplating means to kill it.

He needed to make this quick, as quick as possible, otherwise the men that were behind the Dragon, would begin to notice the differences. And if they managed to figure out the truth, then they would easily be able to catch up to them, and things could get out of hand.

ThumpThump.. The Dark Drake was getting closer and closer, and was now, only about a hundred meters away.

Bi Fan took out his sword, his best sword, the purple-feathered sword; he would need it to kill this beast. The idea was to attack the Dragon mid-air, so it cant change directions and escape the other way.

After the attack, Bi Fan would have to figure out a way to get out of its way very quickly. Because even if he managed to kill the Dragon, the Dragons momentum would, still, carry its body further, and Bi Fan would get trampled upon.

Hhhhhhhh Bi Fan took a deep breath, and readied himself.

The Drake was only ten meters away now, and Bi Fan could clearly see the chinks in its armor, as clear as the cracks that it was making in the ground under its feet.

The Dark Drakes pace was very impressive, he really was giving it his all.

The Dark Drakes foot had already taken off the ground, and his body was now mid-air; he was leaned forward.

Its time! Bi Fan knew that this was the best time to make his move.

The Immortal Finger! The Rising Sun!

With the help of the immortal finger, Bi Fan sent out two spherical balls, upwards, almost as if they were, The Rising Sun, straight towards the eyes of the Dark Drake.

The Dark Drake was leaned forward, and hadnt expected that anybody would attack it so suddenly. By the time he realized that there was an incoming attack, it was already too late to react.

Woooo Bi Fans attack was very accurate and hit the Dark Drake, straight in the eyes. The Dark Drake trembled in pain, and issued a loud wailing sound.

The Dark Drake couldnt control its momentum, and continued to lunge forward.

Bi Fan didnt get out of the way immediately, but unleashed several attacks with his sword, right in the cracks on the Dragons scales.

Bi Fan had used all his strength in the attacks, and had managed to penetrate through the Dragons scales.

The Dark Drake finally succumbed to his injuries, as Bi Fans attacks penetrated its scales, and eventually, scuttled, and stumbled to the ground.

Blood sprayed all over the place, as Bi Fans sword had managed to pierce through the Dragons throat, and had severed its arteries underneath.

Oh Yeah! Bi Fan opened his mouth, and dust went into it, but he continued to smile.

The Dark Drake was too big, and he simply wouldnt fit into Bi Fans Yin Yang pouch, which meant that the only way to store it complete, would be to use the Tian Yuan ring.

But if he used the Tian Yuan ring, then he would have some major explaining to do later on, when his comrades would ask questions.

However, there was no time to think now, because the people that had been keeping away, had noticed that the Dragon had fallen to its death.

Quick, looks like someone struck the Dark Drake down. It seems that the Dragon had gone weak after using his fire attack.

Quick, lets hurry up, otherwise that man will take all the valuables.

Everyone was really excited, and they all lunged forward, in full force.

Suddenly, Bi Fans ambush party, appeared in front of them, and blocked their way.

Bi Fan didnt need to hurry like he would have had to earlier, as his friends had managed to buy him some time; enough time to set up an anatomy session, and dissect off the best, and the most valuable parts from the Dragons carcass.
