The royal dragon roared in pain. Michael traveled into the dragon's body, burning everything in his path. Just imagining Michael inside the dragon made Gaya feel the urge to throw up. She wouldn't have done that under any circumstance. The royal dragon dived down. Blood spurted out from its belly. There was nothing the royal dragon could do to stop Michael. The royal dragon tried to spit out Michael, but only blood and a blob of saliva shot out of its mouth.
"That fucking lizard," Gaya noticed the royal dragon flying toward the pirate ships. She leaped off from Nightmare's back as she flew toward the royal dragon. She caught up with the dragon in a few blinks of an eye. The dragon glanced at Gaya from the corner of its eyes. It roared. Gaya grabbed the side of the dragon's face, ignoring the dragon's roar.
Gaya used every bit of her strength to force the dragon to turn around. If the royal dragon landed on their ships, its massive body would crush several ships, including Big Bertha.
"Ghost, if you hear me, this bastard is heading for our ships. Kill it faster," said Gaya. As though Michael had heard her words, the dragon roared in agony. Gaya punched the dragon as she put all her strength into pushing the dragon to the other side.
Nightmare dived down through the clouds, hitting the royal dragon like a freight train. He bit the royal dragon's wings, almost tearing it off. On the other hand, Azazel also joined Gaya. It took all the strength in their bodies to finally turn around the dragon. Considering they were close to the dragon, they were able to hear a thumping sound coming from within the dragon.The royal dragon slowly lost its strength. Its inside was burnt to jelly by the dark flames. The light of life slowly faded away from its eyes.
"Victoria,"
To their shock, the dragon roared Victoria's name. For the first time, they heard the royal dragon speak. The moment the dragon roared, a fist came out of the dragon's skull. Hot blood splattered on Gaya's face. It felt almost like hot lava. The dragon let out a final roar before starting to fall down.
Gaya flew down and held the dragon's body on her shoulder. Veins popped up on her skin as she gritted. Every muscle in her body tensed up, carrying the massive dragon. Azazel and Nightmare did not let Gaya share the weight alone. They joined her as Azazel took the dragon's head and Nightmare lifted its lower belly. The three of them slowly turned around and headed toward the thusian ships.
Albert led the thusians toward the pirate ships. He was able to navigate the ship around the tornado. The storm was a blessing disguised as a curse. Thanks to the storm, the mortar shells missed their target due to the heavy wind. Albert prayed to his grandfather to destroy the mortars. However, deep down, he knew something was amiss. If his grandfather had succeeded, the red spotlights would have disappeared. Instead, he saw the royal dragon flying through the storm clouds.
For a moment, Albert and the crew felt relieved. But their relief was short-lived. He felt something was wrong. When he looked closely at the royal dragon, he saw no movement in the dragon's body. It didn't flap its wings a single time. Albert quickly grabbed the rails in one hand to balance himself and used his spyglass to see another dragon right under the royal dragon. He moved his spyglass and saw a girl and a man with wings carrying the royal dragon.
His hands automatically moved the spyglass toward the dragon's eyes. Only then did he notice the lack of light of life in its eyes. He realized it was dead. Albert's heart skipped a beat."They are going to drop the dragon on us!" He shouted.
"Abandon ship!" Albert saw no other options. Even if they cast their most powerful spells, it would be impossible to destroy the royal dragon's body into pieces. Once it hit the ship, there was no surviving the explosion. Hence, Albert decided to abandon the ship. At Least his men had a better chance of flying away.
As Albert predicted, the royal dragon's colossal body fell on them with enough force to shake the entire sea. At Least twenty to thirty ships were blasted off from the sea by force. Countless ships sunk under the weight of the royal dragon. The moment the dragon hit the ocean, the collision force resulted in massive tsunami waves.
The waves completely overthrew the front-line ships and destroyed their formation. It was the final nail in their coffin. Albert barely managed to escape the blast. He hovered in the air with a heavy heart, looking at his ship sinking into the ocean. He clenched his fist. They were utterly defeated. Suddenly, a bolt of golden lightning struck the royal dragon. His hands instinctively covered his eyes. The flash was too bright. When he moved his hands to the side, he saw a figure slowly emerging from the lifeless corpse of the royal dragon.
He was completely covered in blood. But the heavy downpour washed off the blood from his body, revealing his identity.
"Ghost," Albert mumbled.
Albert's nail plunged into his palm. He couldn't keep his anger in control when he saw Ghost smiling at all the death and destruction. The burning ships almost turned the dark night brighter. Michael had a glass bottle in his hand. It contained the blood of the royal dragon. Thanks to Gaya and Nightmare killing the Soul Refiners, Michael was able to reach the Half Immortal Stage level 6 when he slew the royal dragon.
He summoned the system to take a look at his status window.

Michael was neither happy nor disappointed at himself. All he felt was the urge to be stronger. The destruction of thusians ships made him happier than seeing his status window. He clenched his fist. He wanted to kill the rest of the thusians. As soon as he exited the system, he sensed several people rushing toward him from all directions.
"Let me take care of them," Michael heard Gaya's voice. But he raised his hand, wordlessly telling her to stand down.
"Take care of the soldiers. Destroy half of their ships,"
"And I will take over the rest," Gaya finished Michael's words.
The soldiers flew straight toward him all wore identical clothes. They covered their heads with dark cloaks. Michael wondered what they were trying to achieve by heading straight toward him. The strongest one among them was a Fusion Stage level 4 cultivator. Even if they were all Fusion stage cultivators, they would have no choice. The majority of the soldiers were at the Core Formation stage. Michael was confused.
Still, Michael did not underestimate them. He flew away from the battlefield into the dark clouds. He quickly cast the lightning dash to increase his speed. The distance between Michael and the soldiers grew quickly. Michael did not slow until he flew straight into the tornado itself.
By doing this, Michael tested the soldiers' resolve to kill him. In other words, Michael wanted to see how badly they wanted him dead. To Michael's surprise, the soldiers did not slow down, not even a bit. Michael slowly disappeared into the dark tornado. The soldiers finally slowed down a bit. They couldn't locate Michael.
"Use the tracking scroll," Franklin, the leader of the elite death squad, ordered his men. One of them quickly took out a glowing silver parchment. A single rune radiated a bright silvery light. The soldier quickly tore it in half as the glowing rune appeared in the air above them.
In the center of the tornado, Michael saw a thin yet bright layer of light appear on him. The soldiers immediately turned their heads toward Michael's direction as though they had seen him through the tornado.
"You guys never learn,"
Franklin heard Ghost's words echo through the air.
"But thanks for making me stronger," Franklin heard Ghost laugh.
Franklin felt his neck hair stand up. Before he could react, hundreds of golden lightning bolts struck from above. He immediately took out another scroll, tore it, and teleported away. Those who managed to react in time escaped. The others just fell from the sky with one or more holes in their bodies.
"Teleportation won't save you," said Ghost.
"Raven maneuver," Franklin shouted.
Michael saw the remaining soldiers flying in some kind of formation. They all raise their hands as their bodies multiply in number. These illusions were meant to disorient Michael. This time, Michael felt his neck hair stand up. He immediately dashed away, missing the golden spear to his heart by a few inches.
The golden spear disappeared before Michael could take a closer look. Finally, Michael realized their plan.
"An Immortal killing weapon," Michael mumbled under his breath. He could tell their plan was to confuse Michael, hide the spear and stab him with it when he least expected. The plan would have worked if Michael had not upgraded his Environmental Scanning.
