Liu Feng flew into the sky again. His Wings of Light glowed brightly behind him. His body was covered in cuts and bruises, but his eyes were sharp and full of fire.
Above him, the Crimson Drake roared in anger. Its giant wings flapped hard, filling the sky with flames. Its body was badly hurt, but it was still strong. Its scales were cracked. Blood dripped from its mouth. But it wasn't giving up.
And neither was Liu Feng.
As they clashed again, the dragon breathed out a river of fire.
Liu Feng used Flame Ghost Step, moving like a shadow through the fire. The heat burned his skin, but he didn't stop.
He jumped high and swung his Devour Spear, hitting the dragon's chest.
[-7,800 HP]
The Crimson Drake growled and tried to bite him, but Liu Feng spun mid-air and kicked off the dragon's nose.
He flew backward and landed on a floating rock. His hands were shaking, but he smiled.
"This monster is tough," he said, "but I'm tougher."

[System Alert!]
> Ultimate Weak Spot Detected: Dragon's Heart Core (beneath chest scale)
Liu Feng's eyes lit up.
"The heart… that's where I'll end this."
He took out the Frozen Dagger and tied it to the side of his spear. The cold blade would help stop the dragon's healing.
He whispered, "Let's freeze that heart."
Then he flew again, faster than before. The dragon saw him coming and let out a roar.
Fire blasted out again, but Liu Feng didn't dodge.
He flew straight through it, pushing his body to the limit.
[-1,600 HP]
His coat caught fire, but he didn't stop.
He reached the dragon's chest and stabbed the spear right under a broken scale.
[-9,500 HP – Critical Hit!]
The dragon screamed. Blue ice spread from the Frozen Dagger, freezing the blood around the heart.
The healing stopped.
But the dragon was angry now,more angry than ever.
Its tail swung hard and hit Liu Feng like a hammer.
[-2,300 HP]
He flew through the air, crashing into a cliff.
[HP: 900 / 9,000]
His vision blurred, and blood ran down his forehead.
But just when it looked like he couldn't move anymore, he heard a voice.
[System: Fatal Strike Mode activated – You have 30 seconds of 100% critical damage!]
Liu Feng stood up, wiping blood from his mouth.
"This is it."
He held his spear with both hands. The tip glowed with black light. His body burned with pain, but his spirit burned hotter.
He flew straight toward the dragon.
The Crimson Drake roared and opened its mouth to finish him with one last blast of fire.
But Liu Feng was faster.
He aimed straight at the frozen part of the chest.
"Void Spear Thrust!"
The spear pierced deep into the dragon's heart.
A loud boom filled the sky.
The dragon's eyes went wide.
Then the fire in them died out.
Its body began to fall from the sky like a broken mountain.
Liu Feng landed on top of the falling dragon, breathing hard. His whole body was shaking. He had won.
The ground shook as the Crimson Drake crashed to the earth, leaving a giant crater.

Liu Feng looked at the glowing Dragon Core floating above the ashes.

Suddenly, flames wrapped around his body, but this time they didn't burn him. They flowed into him, making him stronger.

He smiled, then looked up at the red sky.
"That was a hard fight," he said. "But it was worth it."
Suddenly, he heard rumbling.
From far away, the earth split open.
He turned his head.
In the distance, a black tower rose from the ground. It was huge and covered in glowing red runes.
[System Alert!]
> Warning: A New Disaster is Approaching!

Liu Feng narrowed his eyes.
"So this is only the beginning."
He picked up his spear and walked toward the tower's location.
The air smelled of danger.
But Liu Feng… smiled.
"I'll pick up every power in this world."
