88: Chapter 87 Dragon King? No, Insect King!

The space behind the stone door was much larger than expected.

It was a circular hall with a deep blue gemstone suspended from the dome, casting a cold light across the floor.

And in the very center of the hall stood a woman.

She was not entirely human.

Her features were refined to an unreal degree.

She had an oval face, a straight nose bridge, and lips of a very pale pink, like cherry blossom petals just beginning to melt.

Her long silver-white hair hung down to her waist, shimmering with a faint light like crushed diamonds under the deep blue glow.

Her skin was so white it was almost transparent, and fine blue vascular patterns could be seen on the side of her neck.

But the most striking feature was the curved dragon horn growing on each side of her forehead.

The horns were not large, about three inches long, pale gold in their entirety, and covered in fine, pale green dragon patterns that shimmered with an amber luster in the light.

A pair of golden vertical pupils were staring unblinkingly at Lin Mo.

Breathtakingly beautiful!

"The smell on you is so disgusting."

The Dragon Girl spoke.

Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like jade beads falling onto a plate.

But what she said was hard to listen to.

"The smell of something that crawled out of a mud pit."

"But that's normal; humans are, after all, just monkeys that haven't fully evolved."

She tilted her head, her movements as innocent as a curious cat.

"Only after washing them clean and removing the fur, then deep-frying them! Or braising them! Only then are they considered tasty."

The Dragon Girl curled the corners of her mouth slightly, her golden vertical pupils narrowing into crescent moons.

As if she were savoring something with relish.

The hall was silent for two seconds.

Lin Mo's expression became even more indifferent, and he lazily stretched.

"Are you done?"

The Dragon Girl's smile paused.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid?"

Lin Mo rubbed his eyes.

"Of you, this green caterpillar?"

"What did you say? Who? Who is a green... green caterpillar?"

The Dragon Girl was visibly stunned.

"Your father was ganged up on and crippled, the Dragon Temple was taken down, your subordinates are either dead or scattered, and the fragments are scattered all over the world."

Lin Mo's tone carried mockery.

"Now, all that's left is the lot of you—stinking fish and rotten shrimp—hiding in this dungeon to survive; I'm afraid you've almost forgotten what the sun outside looks like, haven't you?"

"And then you run up to me and act all high and mighty?"

Lin Mo smiled.

"What exactly are you pretending to be? Don't you know you look like clowns?"

The temperature in the hall plummeted.

The smile on the Dragon Girl's face vanished.

Something was churning rapidly within her golden vertical pupils.

"Say that again."

"Oh, didn't hear me?"

Lin Mo twisted his neck, which cracked audibly.

"I said your father, the Drag... no, no, no!"

"Your father is dead, so how is he worthy of being called the Dragon King? Why don't you change the name?"

"I think Insect King or Lizard King would be quite fitting."

Lin Mo's answer was irrelevant to her question, but the effect was extremely significant.

The Dragon Girl's aura spiraled out of control.

The stone slabs under her feet shattered inch by inch under her uncontrolled aura.

"Despicable, inferior monkey—!"

Her voice changed.

It was no longer the crisp sound of jade beads, but mixed with the low-frequency tremors unique to the dragon race.

Her silver-white hair danced wildly. Her two dragon horns instantly turned dark gold, and the dragon patterns on their surface lit up with blinding light.

The system interface popped up.

[Trial Tower · First Floor]

[BOSS: Dragon Temple · Dragon Girl Qiluo (Third-Rank)]

[Level: LV.600]

[Class: Dragon Blood Priest (Quasi-King Grade)]

[Talent: Dragon God Body (Mythical Grade)]

[Note: This BOSS is the daughter of the Dragon King and possesses pure Dragon King bloodline.]

Level 600.

A Quasi-King Grade class?

This was the first time Lin Mo had seen one; he hadn't even heard of it before.

Qiluo had completely lost her previous elegance.

Pale golden dragon scales appeared on the surface of her skin, spreading from her neck to her arms.

Her hands transformed into dragon claws covered in scales, with five sharp, cold-glinting blades at the tips of her fingers.

A translucent dragon tail materialized behind her, seven or eight meters long, with dark golden flames coiling around the tip.

"My father is the greatest existence in this world!"

Qiluo's voice reverberated back and forth in the hall.

"He was not defeated! If it hadn't been for that group of despicable monkeys using poison and sneak attacks back then, he could never have lost!"

"And you—"

She took a step, and the entire hall shook violently.

"A mere Second Class Advancement ant..."

"How dare you insult my father!?"

Her voice changed.

It was no longer the crisp, pleasant voice of a young girl, but a deep dragon roar superimposed with several echoes.

"You are worthy of insulting my father?"

The same second the words fell.

Domain, activate.

[Dragon Bone Hell]

The entire hall was swallowed in an instant.

The stone slabs underfoot shattered and disappeared, replaced by an endless wasteland of white bones.

Huge, grayish-white dragon bones burst out from the ground, crisscrossing to form a forest piled with corpses.

Each dragon bone was over a dozen meters high, covered in dense, ancient runes, exuding a bone-chilling dragon might.

The sky turned dark gold, and a huge dragon eye hung from the dome, overlooking everything.

Within the domain, a terrifying suppressive force crushed in from all directions.

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

This was not an ordinary domain.

Dragon Bone Hell acted directly on the soul.

The runes on the dragon bones began to glow; each ray of light was like an invisible hand, trying to grab Lin Mo's soul and drag it down.

The Dragon Girl stood in the center of the dragon bone forest, looking down at Lin Mo, high and mighty.

"Do you know what this is?"

"Dragon Bone Hell, a high-level domain."

She extended a finger.

"A domain that only those of us with direct King-level bloodlines can comprehend."

"That low-level domain of yours is just paper-mâché in front of me."

The Dragon Girl tilted her head, her golden vertical pupils filled with pity.

"I know you have something called a Blade Domain."

"Don't bother; in front of a high-level domain, a low-level domain is no different from paper-mâché."

"The Dragon King's own daughter, is this it?"

The Dragon Girl's words were interrupted.

The expression on Lin Mo's face carried disdain.

The soul suppression of Dragon Bone Hell hit him, triggering Block.

A string of "-0" floated above his head.

The 320,000-level Magic Armor had a Block effect as high as 3.2 million!

He didn't know if her domain had a damage-boosting effect, but the Dragon Girl could not break through for a short time.

If it were a few days ago, Lin Mo might have really stumbled.

But now...

"You just said, one low-level domain is paper-mâché?"

Lin Mo raised his right hand.

"What about four?"

The Dragon Girl frowned.

"What four—"

First domain, activate.

[Blade Domain]

Silver-white sword qi erupted from Lin Mo's body, and a blade storm with a diameter of over 300 meters instantly formed.

Countless sword qi visible to the naked eye intertwined and rotated in the air; the dragon bones on the outermost perimeter were swept by it, snapping as neatly as tofu, their cross-sections as smooth as mirrors.

The Dragon Girl's expression did not change.

But before she could speak—

Second domain, activate.

[Bloodlust Domain]

Dark golden aura spread from under Lin Mo's feet.

A terrifying siphon force instantly enveloped the entire Dragon Bone Hell.

The residual dragon blood essence on those dragon bones began to gather uncontrollably toward Lin Mo.

The golden runes on the surface of the dragon bones dimmed rapidly.

The Dragon Girl began to frown.

"You—!"

Third domain, activate.

[Interception Domain]

An invisible force field expanded outward with Lin Mo as the center.

The rules within the domain were forcibly rewritten—any attack behavior would be interrupted and suffer ten times the damage reflection.

The rune attacks on the dragon bones that were eroding Lin Mo's soul all exploded the moment the Interception Domain was deployed.

Golden light spots bloomed in the air like fireworks, then vanished into nothingness.

"No... how is this possible?!"

The Dragon Girl's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

But Lin Mo did not give her time to process it.

Fourth domain, activate.

[Air Pressure Domain]

The air was instantly compressed to the limit.

A transparent boundary wall formed by pure airflow took shape at the intersection of the four domains, like an invisible giant hand, squeezing all the space of the Dragon Bone Hell from the inside.

Four domains operated simultaneously.

The moment the four gravity fields overlapped, terrifying pressure crushed toward the Dragon Bone Hell.

Crack—

The sound was not loud, but the Dragon Girl heard it clearly.

She was completely stunned, watching helplessly as her domain shattered.
