Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up Chapter 1144 - Killing the Giant Beast

Lu Yu gripped the Star Piercing Demonic Sword, determined to generate another portal and persist in his offensive against the Giant Crag Dragon. Sustained pressure would no doubt lead to a win. With a sharp flick of his weapon, a rift materialized before him. A massive arc of electricity surged from the gateway, crashing into the Giant Crag Dragon with a deafening thunderclap. The result was remarkable. Despite its gargantuan size, the beast was not immune to lightning. Electricity coursed through its frame, halting its momentum and momentarily draining its vigor.

Lu Yu realized that while the lightning could disrupt the monster, dealing lethal damage remained a difficult task. The Giant Crag Dragon, now burdened by the Void Serpent and facing Lu Yu’s endless salvos, was clearly under duress. Any lesser dragon would likely have perished long before the Void Serpent suffered significant harm. Lu Yu raised his blade again, prepared for another wave of strikes. Boom! Suddenly, the Giant Crag Dragon tumbled to the side and slammed into the earth. It began to thrash about, stirring up a massive cloud of grit.

As the dust settled, Lu Yu noticed rocks bursting from the gaps in the beast’s armor, transforming into jagged spikes that impaled the Void Serpent. The serpent, already weakened by the rocky protrusions and the dragon’s frantic rolling, was severely injured. Nonetheless, its maw remained wide, locked firmly onto the Giant Crag Dragon. Lu Yu grasped the severity of the situation. The beast possessed a unique method to counter the Void Serpent. Even if its defense-oriented riposte was peculiar, it was undeniably a major obstacle. He shook his head slightly. “This is dragging on, and I cannot allow that. I am nearing Jasper City. If I get too close, those people will uncover my combat style.” Lu Yu preferred to keep his specific abilities and the number of dragons under his command a secret.

“Only the Death Spirit Dragon can finish this.” At that moment, the Death Spirit Dragon’s faint voice echoed in Lu Yu’s thoughts. “Master, you really should have summoned me sooner. I am the only one capable of handling this creature.” “What about me?” the Nightmare Dragon chimed in. “What use could you possibly be? You only know how to cause nightmares.” “Do not be so cruel. I have my own techniques.” “Cease the bickering, Master. Release me. I intend to slay that thing. It is massive—enough for a hearty feast!” Lu Yu dropped his guard. “Fine, it seems the task falls to you.”

Meanwhile, atop the ramparts of Jasper City, a group of soldiers intently watched the distant clash. “This is intense! They are locked in a stalemate.” “If that beast charges this way, our walls will collapse. We will be forced to flee on our wyverns!” “Stay calm. Our superiors ordered us to hold our ground. The external menace will be handled.” “Is that truly the case? That person hovering in the air?” Everyone could catch a vague glimpse of a tiny black speck in the sky—Lu Yu. To those soldiers on the city walls, Lu Yu’s methods for handling the behemoth were a total mystery. Even the massive python he summoned had failed to overcome it.

Unshaken, Lu Yu summoned the Death Spirit Dragon. Swoosh! A brilliant beam of light pierced the heavens, and the colossal form of the Death Spirit Dragon descended. Its abyssal black frame, mountainous muscles, and scales resembling sharpened blades radiated an aura of terrifying power. Its emerald eyes fixed upon the Giant Crag Dragon below. “Roar!” With a thunderous cry, the Death Spirit Dragon unleashed a torrent of green fireballs. Boom! The Giant Crag Dragon was swallowed by flames, its hide consumed by the necrotic fire. As the flames burned, the Void Serpent retreated into the Void World.

The Giant Crag Dragon, now utterly immobilized, started a desperate attempt to escape by rolling on the ground, kicking up clouds of dust. Yet, the relentless fireballs continued to descend, bathing the creature in deathly flames. The monster writhed in agony, its cries echoing with pain and despair. Its struggles were ultimately meaningless. Lu Yu chuckled to himself. “Finally suffering, are you? That took quite a bit of effort.” He sighed. The creature’s sheer physical mass and armor were a significant hurdle. Without the Death Spirit Dragon, victory would have been far from certain. Of course, Lu Yu held the Undead Dragon Claw, allowing him to fight personally, but it would have lacked the visual impact he required.

The mountain-sized Giant Crag Dragon continued to roll in agony until its once-imposing armor shattered into pieces. Blood poured from its wounds, forming a crimson pool that soaked the earth and filled the air with a metallic stench. The creature’s gaze clouded over, its dominant aura fading into despair. At last, the movements ceased, and the dragon closed its eyes, finally yielding to its end. “Master, the enemy is expired. I shall feast now!” Lu Yu nodded. “Proceed, eat your fill.” “What about us?” the Nightmare Dragon interrupted. “We are starving too!” “If you desire to eat, just say so. Why the drama?” “Very well, I will simply converse with the Fire Spirit Dragon, the Water Spirit Dragon, and the Poison Dragon. They are all famished.” “No, I cannot release you all! Should others witness you, would they not uncover my origins?” “Do not be restless. I will arrange a proper feast when circumstances permit. But not here, not now.” “Very well, remember that,” the Nightmare Dragon replied. “Do not worry, I will. I had no other choice this time. Truthfully, I wished to keep the Death Spirit Dragon hidden. Once others realize I have tamed such a beast, they will undoubtedly scramble to develop counters against me. Regardless, this matter is closed. We shall depart once the Death Spirit Dragon finishes its meal.”
