I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

At this moment, a dull roar of thunder resounded above the sky.

"Whoosh—!!"

A massive figure descended rapidly like a meteor, trailing sparks and lightning, Dark Flame, Colorful Flame, White Thunder... It descended straight from the sky with countless special effects, like a cash-splashing player in an online game.

In the shocked gazes of the crowd, the huge figure slammed heavily into the ground.

"Boom—!!!!"

The concrete ground shattered, and numerous Cockroach Monsters, people, along with various debris and dust, turned into a ring-shaped shockwave that radiated and scattered in all directions.

In just an instant, all the Cockroach Monsters lunging at Meng Qingjiao were reduced to pieces.

Meng Qingjiao herself was swept away by the shockwave with a confused expression, her eyes blinded by the dust and debris, forcing her to close them.

A shadowy figure engulfed in Dark Flame, pulling along a spiral of colorful flames, approached her rapidly.

Meng Qingjiao, with her eyes closed in mid-air, suddenly felt someone's gentle arms wrap around her, halting her flight... cradling her in a "princess carry."

"..." She gently opened her eyes and looked up.

What greeted her was a pitch-black figure.

She blinked, not knowing why, but despite not being able to see the person's face, she had the distinct feeling that he looked familiar…

The sudden scene shocked everyone, Jiao Hongyuan, Meng Boshang, Chen Fuguang... Even the Cockroach Monsters seemed a bit stunned.

The battlefield, which had been like a meat grinder, fell into a silent and still deadlock.

All eyes were on the dark figure holding Meng Qingjiao, several leaping back up onto the 'meteorite'...

No, that wasn't a meteorite, it was—a Dragon!

"Is that... a Dragon Breed!?"

"Did this person come down riding a Dragon Breed!?"

"Who exactly is he? Has he come to help us? Is he summoned by the government?"

"Wait, I think I know who he is..."

"Wasn't there a report from Maple City a while ago? About the Black Dragon Knight!"

"That's got to be him, it must be. People from Maple City say he is the hero who protects the city's peace!"

"Isn't that an urban legend?"

"He is right before our eyes... This is not a legend, but an indisputable fact!"

Jiao Hongyuan's brow furrowed tightly, looking at the figure standing atop the Dragon Breed, a sense of foreboding emerging in his heart.

Underneath the Cherry Dragon's claws, Li Chengxuan lay trampled below, spitting up mouthfuls of blood, his body nearly flattened.

He couldn't speak, just watched helplessly around him, completely unaware of what was happening.

"What in the world... is going on?"

Xue Jing controlled the Cherry Dragon, feeling something tickling underfoot as if stepping on something, so he applied a little force and crushed whatever was beneath his foot.

He didn't pay any attention to this, instead looking down at Meng Qingjiao in his arms and asked softly:

"Senior sister, are you alright?"

"..." Hearing the familiar voice, Meng Qingjiao paused briefly before nodding her head.

Indeed, it was her junior brother...

After the prolonged battle, she had sustained several injuries on her body. Seeing this, Xue Jing placed her on top of the Cherry Dragon's head.

Then, with a thought, he made the Cherry Dragon sprout a small root tendril from its head, which wrapped around Meng Qingjiao's wrist.

Life Force surged through the tendril into her body, and soon Meng Qingjiao found her wounds rapidly healing, and within a short time, they were completely healed.

"Senior sister, take a moment to rest; leave the rest to me," Xue Jing said softly.

"..." Meng Qingjiao, silent, nodded her head and moved beside him, reaching out to touch his head.

This gesture made Meng Boshang and Chen Fuguang pause, immediately realizing the identity of the overly dramatic arrival.

They made no announcement, nor did they greet him; after thinking for a moment, Chen Fuguang spoke out loudly:

"This gentleman is the government's trump card who was delayed elsewhere due to some matters and has just now arrived. Folks, since he has already come, victory is assured for us. Let's put in a final effort and exterminate the Cockroach Monsters!"

His words confirmed for some of the still bewildered people on the scene that Xue Jing was an ally, and everyone's spirits instantly lifted.

His shockingly grand entrance meant that no one would doubt his strength; bolstered by such ferocious and powerful ally support, the morale, which had been gradually diminishing due to the increasing numbers of Cockroach Monsters, surged once again.

"Onward, exterminate the Cockroach Monsters!"

The battle cries continued nonstop, plunging the scene back into chaos.

Seeing this, Xue Jing snapped his fingers.

The Cherry Dragon at his feet suddenly underwent a change, as hundreds of thick tendrils sprouted from its body and stretched toward the Cockroach Monsters on the battlefield.

One tendril for each monster, and in no time, hundreds of Cockroach Monsters were caught and bound. Xue Jing raised his right hand and clenched his palm forcefully.

"Pop pop pop pop pop—"

Hundreds of Cockroach Monsters were instantly crushed by the tendrils. Countless dark green fluids splattered like torrential rain, soaking all the people nearby.

This disgusting scene symbolized a terrifying combat power capable of influencing the battle, and it invigorated the crowd, who erupted into cheers.

"So strong! Worthy of being our ace, Black Dragon Knight!"

"Long live the Black Dragon Knight!"

"Black Dragon Knight is invincible!"

"Ace, ACE!"

"..." Listening to the cringeworthy nicknames, Xue Jing's mouth twitched under his helmet.

Shaking his head, he looked toward the green light vortex on the ground nearby that kept spewing out Cockroach Monsters. In a flash, he reached the edge of the vortex.

He drew out the shadows around him into a black, gaseous stream, morphing into a massive black hand that plunged into the vortex.

He swiftly pulled out a Green Cube that emitted a green glow.

Taking the Magic Cube from the Shadow Flame hand, Xue Jing casually spun it a few times, causing the green vortex on the ground to shrink and close up, no longer spewing out Cockroach Monsters.

[Divine Substance detected, absorbing Divinity...]

"GOD-1779·Green Cube..."

Xue Jing stowed it inside his clothing, securing it close to himself.

He then looked towards Jiao Hongyuan and Meng Boshang, who were entwined in battle in the distance.

The words of that man earlier came back to his mind.

Jiao Hongyuan's Breakthrough was incomplete; something was placed two inches above his tailbone. If hit, it could kill him.

"It's a bit condescending, as if I couldn't kill him without hitting his weak spot."

Xue Jing shook his head.

He did not plan to follow the man's advice, and he even intended to avoid Jiao Hongyuan's so-called weak point.

Who knows what would happen if it were actually hit; you can't trust the enemy's words.

With a step, pulling along the colorful spiraling tail flames, Xue Jing instantly closed in on Jiao Hongyuan and Meng Boshang.

Seeing him, Meng Boshang's eyes lit up. He immediately threw caution to the wind, enduring multiple strikes from the Golden Wind White Rainbow Sword, his body gaining countless deep gashes, and he lunged to embrace Jiao Hongyuan.

Despite the fact that Jiao Hongyuan's Breakthrough-level Golden Wind Strength could sever this simple constraint in less than a second... it still required a bit of time.

And that bit of time was enough for Xue Jing to cross a distance of a hundred meters, coming up close to him.

He extended his right arm, with Dark Flame blazing along his entire arm, entwined also with the silver-white Dragon Thunder Feather Belt.

The Extremely Rigid True Dragon within him emerged, split into two, and simultaneously channeled Shaking Star Fire and Whirlwind Thunder.

The explosive speed of the Flames Connecting Colors, combined with the grand move Thunder Flame Boiling Cauldron, and adding Shadow Flame and Dragon Thunder, turned his entire arm into an indestructible weapon of terror.

Xue Jing aimed the crook of his arm at Jiao Hongyuan's neck.

"Flame-Colored Rainbow·Thunder Plough Hot Blade!"

The colorful tail flame and the Dark Flame White Thunder traces merged together, flashing by.

Before the astonished eyes of the onlookers, a prized head was effortlessly severed, shot into the air dozens of meters, as blood gushed out profusely.

"A... an instant kill!?"

"Jiao Hongyuan... a Limit-Breaking Grandmaster... instantly killed!"
