Systemless Villain

Chapter 86 Clash of Dragon and Lightning

Long Tian rushed toward the radiant source, entering it. The brilliant light momentarily blinded him, and when it dissipated, he found himself in utter darkness. Glancing down, he realized he stood not on a floor but on water.

"It appears this is why Long Guanyu granted me the ability to walk on water," he muttered to himself.

After standing still for a few moments, Long Tian proceeded forward. Gradually, the water beneath him emitted a faint, moonlight-like glow.

As this gentle light illuminated the surroundings, he spotted a golden dragon statue standing at the center of the area.

Long Tian approached it and touched the statue's surface, identifying it as the Azure Dragon.

Finding nothing particularly remarkable, he continued to venture deeper. Along the way, a gentle Reiki filled the place, somehow permeating his body, instilling a sense of calm and a slight increase in strength.

At that moment, he noticed another colossal dragon statue. This one dwarfed the previous, boasting four wings. He couldn't discern the dragon species.

After studying the statue for a while, he resumed his path.

****************

Long Tian walked through this place for what felt like an eternity. Along the way, he encountered more than ten golden dragon statues scattered about, leaving him to ponder their purpose.

This place also gives off a vast and seemingly endless sensation.

He pressed onward, squinting his eyes when he suddenly spotted something in the distance.

With lightning speed, he darted toward the object.

In mere seconds, he stood before it. It was a one-meter-tall dragon statue holding a plate-like container filled with water.

While Long Tian couldn't be entirely sure, he had a strong inkling that this water was far from ordinary. Without a second thought, he plunged his head into the container, savoring every drop.

Its taste was exceptionally refreshing, as if it were thousands of times better than Earth's.

"Something should happen," he remarked, wiping the water from the corners of his mouth.

A few seconds later, the water he stood on began to transform into earth, and he sensed a slow, ominous vibration.

He grew wary; this was likely part of the temple's challenge.

In the dimly lit water, a colossal, four-armed dragon with magneficent wings materialized. Long Tian's eyes widened, revealing a mixture of shock and disbelief.

The appearance of this dragon—it was his martial spirit, Shen Long!

His expression turned serious, and a realization washed over him. "Don't tell me I'm meant to fight my own martial spirit here? To face a dragon god?" he said with seriousness.

The appearance of Shen Long in front of him wasn't friendly; its gaze was sharp, as if it could strike at any moment.

Long Tian swallowed hard, took an optimistic breath. He closed his eyes once more and concentrated; in the next moment, Zeus materialized behind him.

His expression turned joyful and relieved, "Thank goodness you're still by my side, Zeus," he said.

It seemed he had grasped something. This place was a part of a test, and the test involved confronting his own martial spirit.

Judging from the dragon statues he had encountered along the way, they likely represented the martial spirits of those who had succeeded here.

"GRROOAAARR!" Shen Long roared, locking eyes with him.

Long Tian's demeanor became commanding. "I never expected we'd have to battle, Shen Long. But in the end, I'll be the one to defeat you."

His words seemed to anger Shen Long, and it attacked him with its massive claws.

Claw!

Long Tian swiftly dodged the attack with his lightning speed, although it required effort due to the size of Shen Long's claws.

"It seems that you and I, Zeus, must unite against your brother," he said.

In the next moment, the Zeus figure behind him entered his body, transforming him. His pupils turned blue, and lightning enveloped his body.

Strangely, his energy and stamina weren't depleting; it was as though this place was providing him with immense energy and endurance. He realized this might be an advantage, allowing him to hone his skills.

He grinned, moving with lightning speed. In just a second, he reached near Shen Long's head.

His fist clenched, and with full force, he struck Shen Long's face.

Bang!

The punch echoed with a deafening roar, accompanied by a surge of lightning that hit Shen Long's face.

Long Tian grinned, not feeling any energy drain despite using his full power.

However, his expression shifted when he saw that his full power had no effect on Shen Long.

Shen Long suddenly moved, its wings appearing as it rapidly attacked with its massive claws.

Claw!

Shen Long's strike distorted the air, yet Long Tian managed to evade it using his speed.

"One or two strikes won't do it; I need to find a more effective approach," he said and moved at lightning speed to reach Shen Long.

A massive lightning bolt materialized above, striking Shen Long and sending it crashing to the ground.

Long Tian immediately attacked from various angles, each punch accompanied by a massive bolt of lightning.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

His attacks seemed effective, visibly causing pain to Shen Long. However, he also fueled its rage.

"GROAAAAARRRRR!" Shen Long roared, and Long Tian found himself unable to move.

His expression filled with disbelief; he couldn't even use his lightning.

Looking up, he saw Shen Long's hand above him, which promptly struck him.

Bang!

The thunderous sound of Shen Long's hand striking the ground resonated throughout the vast chamber.

As the hand withdrew, Long Tian lay on the ground, covered in blood, his pupils having vanished, leaving his eyes completely white.

Shen Long had no intention of toying with him. It unleashed fiery breath, engulfing Long Tian in a massive blaze.

For several moments, the fiery breath raged. However, the flames gradually died down, leaving nothing but ashes.

Shen Long landed on the ground, eyeing the spot where Long Tian had been.

Meanwhile, behind Shen Long, black lightning crackled, and Long Tian emerged, clad in armor adorned with black lightning motifs, carrying a Blade of Olympus.
