The Almighty Dragon General

Quiomars’ attacks were too fast.
Moreover, Lord Samsong had endured constant torture in the formation, throwing him off mentally. As a result, he could not
detect Quiomars. Thus, he had no idea who or what was sneaking up on him.
After sustaining such a grievous injury, he could feel his life force slowly seeping away. He used whatever strength he had to stay
awake, but it took a massive toll on him. For now, he could still hang on. However, despite being a Ninth Stage Lord, he would
eventually die in the formation if he could not escape his predicamenr.
After Quiomars struck, the lingering souls in the formation emerged. They turned into black mist and surrounded Lord Samsong.
Their sinister power began to corrode Lord Samsong’s body and soul. Already critically injured, Lord Samsong could not
continue to endure even more damage.
He sensed his soul slowly fading away.
Lord Samsong cursed. “Damn it!!!’’
Summoning his remaining power, he blasted away the lingering souls. Just this one move consumed a lot of his strength. He
sprawled out on the ground and panted heavily. He had to leave as soon as possible, or else he would really die in this place.
However, the cracked formation still stood in his way.
Although it was damaged, it was still powerful, and capable of preventing his escape.
After repelling the lingering souls, Quiomars reappeared beside him. The Divine Cow showed no mercy and unleashed terrifying
power. Even though Lord Samsong was a Ninth Stage Lord, he could not deflect the attack and his injuries multiplied. He wanted
to fight back but could not locate his enemy.
“Argh!!!” Lord Samsong let out an infuriated growl. However, his torment did not end. Quiomars continuously gave him more
deep wounds.
James had been watching everything from afar. He saw that Lord Samsong was at his limit. Even if Quiomars retreated, Lord
Samsong would die from the attacks of the lingering souls. Right then, he teleported into the damaged formation.
The lingering souls had been secretly looking for an opening to attack. After ensuring Lord Samsong’s weariness, they gathered
their strength to deal a fatal blow.

This was the moment they had been waiting for.
Swoosh!!!
The lingering souls coalesced into a sharp blade and rushed viciously at the exhausted Lord Samsong. Lord Samsong sensed
the danger and wanted to defend himself. However, he did not have much strength left to fight back. He closed his eyes in
despair, knowing his end had come. He regretted his decision to come to the Ecclesiastical Restricted Zone.
James appeared at the last second, and blocked the lingering souls’ deadly attack. After the lingering souls’ attacks were
deflected, they hurriedly retreated into the dark and watched cautiously.
Meanwhile, Lord Samsong still had his eyes closed while awaiting his death. However, the final blow never came.
Gradually, he opened his eyes and saw a familiar figure.
“Forty-nine?” Lord Samsong was shocked to see James before him. Previously, James did not disclose his real name and went
by his fake identity, Forty-nine. Thus, Lord Samsong knew James as Forty-nine.
James looked at the feeble Samsong, and said calmly, “You don’t look well. If I hadn’t shown up, you would’ve died.”
Samsong quickly grasped at his life-saving straw. He said frantically, “Forty-nine, get me out of here! I’ll give you everything I
have. You can have Triple Star Welkin and all the treasures I’ve accumulated over the years!”
He did not want to die just yet. With his cultivation base and attainments, it was easy for him to regain his former glory. Even if he
were to give away all he had, he could definitely make a comeback.
