Chapter 449: Poison Mist Mountains! Fists Like Storms
Buzz!!
At the entrance of the Poison Mist Mountains, spatial ripples spread out.
The next second.
A tall figure in a black and white school robe suddenly appeared out of thin air.
It was Ling Zhan.
At this moment, he was completely immune to the dizziness usually caused by spatial teleportation.
This was naturally thanks to his S-rank innate talent, "Space Master."
In fact, if Ling Zhan wanted to cause trouble, he could use "Space Master" to alter the path within the spatial channel during teleportation.
"Alright, familiar terrain debuff..."
As soon as he stepped into the Poison Mist Mountains, Ling Zhan felt a poisonous mist infiltrate his body, suppressing his attributes.
As the poisonous mist penetrated his skin, muscles, and even his insides...
Ling Zhan's four-dimensional attributes, defense, magic resistance, and maximum health, among other stats, were slightly reduced.
Strictly speaking...
This poisonous mist wasn't exactly a "terrain debuff."
Because "terrain debuffs" can ignore any resistances the challenger has, forcibly reducing all their attributes.
However, the negative effects caused by this poisonous mist were largely mitigated by Ling Zhan's high resistances.
With an anomaly resistance of 1700 and the S-rank secret realm talent "Undying Body," the poison mist's slowing, draining, poisoning, and weakening effects had minimal impact.
The entire Poison Mist Mountains were shrouded in a light purple poisonous mist, and all the trees had withered away.
What should have been an overgrown, rugged mountain path was barren.
The sides of the path were littered with human and beast skeletons, as if warning new entrants: "Proceed at your own risk."
This undoubtedly created a highly oppressive atmosphere, as if one were standing inside a toxic cave.
Swish!!
Faced with this toxic cave-like mountain range, Ling Zhan didn't hesitate, sprinting swiftly along the only rugged path.
"Roar!!"
After just half a minute of running.
A beastly roar filled with violent malice came from above.
The next second.
Boom!!
A massive Two-Winged Poison Dragon, covered in purple scales and standing over ten meters tall, crashed down in front of Ling Zhan like a meteor!
Its purple dragon eyes, filled with hunger and savage killing intent, locked onto this human who dared intrude.
Two-Winged Poison Dragon!
A level 65 sub-dragon species!
This is a type of Western dragon.
Sub-dragons are comparable to spiritual beasts.
This means the Two-Winged Poison Dragons residing here have strength on par with spiritual beasts!
Not only do they have high physical and magical defenses, but they also possess the ability to use "Dragon Magic" and have physical strength surpassing that of human warriors of the same level!
Because of this...
The Poison Mist Mountains and the nearby Thunder Pool Ruins are known as "Death Zones" among college students in the Dragon Nation.
Over the years, only level 70 and above third-tier powerhouses dared form teams to challenge these places.
Many teams had to retreat before even encountering the legendary Poison Dragon King and Thunder Dragon King.
The Poison Dragon King.
The level 70 Two-Winged Poison Dragon King.
The Thunder Dragon King.
The level 70 Two-Winged Thunder Dragon King.
As high-level sub-dragons, they possess intelligence on par with humans and can understand spoken language.
This is an outdoor map resource, unrestricted by level.
Therefore, if the Poison Dragon King and Thunder Dragon King were slain, they would not be able to revive.
Because of this...
Tianyan Academy, which manages this outdoor resource, has strictly regulated that if the Poison Dragon King and Thunder Dragon King are killed, these two maps would be sealed for over a year.
Moreover, the number of Two-Winged Poison Dragons and Two-Winged Thunder Dragons hunted cannot exceed a combined total of one thousand.
The one-year sealing period allows these leaderless sub-dragons to compete, kill each other, and devour their kin, eventually producing new dragon kings.
Currently...
The Poison Mist Mountains and nearby Thunder Pool Ruins have been sealed for nearly two years.
The Two-Winged sub-dragons have had ample time to breed, and their numbers have reached a certain saturation point.
Thus, Zhou Hongfu approved Ling Zhan's application with a permitted kill count: up to two thousand monsters.
At this moment...
As the Two-Winged Poison Dragon roared, Ling Zhan could feel numerous other poison dragons, concealed by the toxic mist, circling in the sky.
A multitude of eyes filled with hunger and violent intent were fixed on Ling Zhan's small figure.
"Roar!!"
Perhaps there was an unspoken rule among the Two-Winged Poison Dragons: whoever spots the prey first gets priority in attacking.
The dragon that first appeared before Ling Zhan roared and...
Swish!!
Its massive wings flapped sharply, creating a piercing sound!
This dragon, with a body as large as a small building, unleashed a speed beyond imagination!
In an instant, its venomous dragon claws, gleaming with a chilling light, reached out toward Ling Zhan!
Fast!
So fast!
As expected of a level 65 monster!
Each of these Two-Winged Poison Dragons appeared with purple names under Ling Zhan's "Eye of Insight."
Purple elite monsters!!
Needless to say.
The sheer speed and the sharp gleam of its dragon claws could instantly kill an ordinary level 60 job-changer!
Facing the pouncing Two-Winged Poison Dragon...
The small figure on the ground remained motionless.
Even his expression and gaze didn't waver in the face of the dragon's fierce attack.
Just as the powerful dragon claws were about to tear through the figure...
He finally moved!
Strangely...
He didn't dodge!!
Instead, he casually raised his right arm and swung out a punch!
Whoosh!!
The whistling sound was the fist wind stirred by Ling Zhan's punch, like a storm!!
Splatter!!
Was that the sound of a human body shattering?
No!
It was the shredding sound of the Two-Winged Poison Dragon's arm, torn apart by the fierce fist wind!!
"Roar----!"
The thick, tree-like dragon claw collided with a slender human fist, and the result was the Two-Winged Poison Dragon letting out a pained howl!
It was horrified to feel an immensely terrifying force, like a bone-burrowing parasite, pierce its entire arm upon contact.
The force then tore through its entire dragon arm as if in a meat grinder, completely pulverizing its muscles!
A mist of purple-red blood burst forth!
The entire dragon arm disintegrated into minced flesh!
As the Two-Winged Poison Dragon recoiled in pain...
The human figure lightly tapped his toes and leapt into the air in an instant!
