"It wouldn't be fair if it's two against one. How about I call for help too?"
Both of them were stunned, and then a red magic circle suddenly appeared in the sky.
The circle slowly expanded until it reached tens of meters in size.
From within it, a red dragon with a terrifying appearance emerged.
Its body was the same size as Calystron's, but the aura and pressure it released were clearly many times stronger.
The white-haired man flew onto the dragon's head and landed gracefully. He released his staff and folded his arms in front of his chest.
"I will introduce the one assisting me: the Dragon Empress, also known as the Primordial Dragon—Lyserra Ardhenis. Now, let us begin the second round."
A thin, mocking smile spread across his face.
Roar!
Lyserra unleashed a soul-piercing roar. A wave of energy exploded in all directions, destroying the trees below.
Gabriel and Calystron quickly used their powers to withstand the impact.
'What a terrifying aura,' Gabriel exclaimed inwardly.
The red dragon released unbelievably strong pressure.
Just from its roar alone, he felt as if his soul was being eroded.
Calystron felt it even more. As a fellow dragon, the effect of Lyserra's pressure was many times more overwhelming than what Gabriel felt.
Its blood seemed to boil, and its bloodline felt suppressed, as if the dragon before it possessed a far older lineage.
'How is this possible? I am the oldest in this world! It's impossible for me to feel this kind of pressure!' It screamed in its heart.
But the truth was undeniable—the red dragon's bloodline was much purer and far stronger than its own.
As the two sank into fear, the mysterious white-haired man pointed at them and shouted, "Lyserra, attack them!"
Roar!
She unleashed a powerful roar and shot toward them.
Seeing this, Gabriel and Calystron immediately moved.
Calystron flapped its wings and retreated, while Gabriel leaped into the sky to avoid the attack.
Boom!
Lyserra's massive body crashed into the spot where Calystron had been moments before. An eight-meter-deep crater formed beneath her feet.
She raised her head, glaring at Calystron with rage.
As soon as she opened her mouth, a red energy ball formed and was instantly fired.
Whoosh!
The shot was so fast that Calystron had no time to react.
Boom!
The attack struck its stomach, exploded on impact, and sent its body flying five kilometers away.
"Damn it!" Gabriel appeared above Lyserra's head, raising his sword high.
"Dimension Slash!"
He was about to swing it when his surroundings suddenly froze—including his own body.
His eyes widened in fear. But before he could process what was happening, the mysterious man had already appeared in front of him.
He grabbed Gabriel's neck tightly, then punched him hard in the face.
Bang!
Gabriel shot through the air like a cannonball and crashed into the ground below, forming a three-meter-deep hole on impact.
"Pfft!" Gabriel coughed out blood, overwhelmed by pain.
Whoosh!
The mysterious man reappeared in front of him with an indifferent expression.
"This time, I'll be a little serious," he said coldly.
Gabriel burst with dazzling golden light, but the man remained completely unaffected.
He struck Gabriel's chin and sent him flying into the sky.
A rift opened, and the figure appeared behind Gabriel, kicking him in the back.
Bang!
Each time Gabriel was knocked away, the man vanished and instantly reappeared behind him.
Gabriel couldn't do anything—the man's movements were simply too fast.
'There's no other way!' He muttered angrily, then shouted, "God of Sun Technique: First Seal!"
Boom!
His body erupted with blinding light. Suddenly, he regained full control of his body and disappeared, reappearing a hundred meters away.
The light slowly faded, revealing his figure now shrouded in golden radiance.
Behind him, a giant sun avatar stood majestically, making anyone who saw it feel the urge to kneel.
"You forced me to use the God of Sun Technique! This time, I won't lose to you!"
With that, he shot toward the man at incredible speed.
Clenching his fists tightly, he delivered a punch.
Bang!
His strike connected and sent the man flying five hundred meters away.
Not satisfied, Gabriel vanished again and reappeared beside him.
Twisting his body, he kicked the man and sent him hurtling in the opposite direction.
His figure flashed from one point to another with incredible speed.
The situation that had once been unfavorable to him was now reversed. At this moment, he was the one controlling the fight!
But was that really the case?
"Your God of Sun Technique is too weak. Let me show you how to use it properly."
The man shifted his body effortlessly, causing Gabriel's attack to miss.
Bang!
His fist struck Gabriel's face hard, sending him crashing into the ground with terrifying force.
"Ugh…" Gabriel groaned in pain. "Even with the God of Sun Technique, I still can't defeat him. Damn… who is he? Why is he this strong?"
He recalled that no one in this world possessed such overwhelming power. If someone like that existed, their name would definitely be famous. Yet he had never heard of this man.
Just as he got back on his feet, an explosion echoed from the sky. A red light, far brighter than before, erupted and illuminated an area ten kilometers wide.
Gabriel raised his arms to shield his face.
'What's happening? What technique is he using now?' he thought in horror.
The light lasted for five minutes before it finally faded.
When he saw the scene above, his expression froze in disbelief.
The mysterious man floated in the sky, his body wrapped in red flames.
But that wasn't what shocked Gabriel—it was the nine suns glowing behind the man's back.
Each sun shone with an intensity that far surpassed even the giant sun behind Gabriel.
"The God of Sun Technique? How… how is he able to use it?"
The God of Sun Technique was a technique created by his grandfather. It allowed one to borrow the power of the sun.
Anyone who mastered it would become nearly unbeatable by others of the same level.
But there was a price—soul power. It worked similarly to the transformation mode Gabriel used to borrow the power of nature.
The difference was that the God of Sun Technique consumed far more soul power. That was why he hadn't used it from the start.
And now, that mysterious white-haired man was using it—even better than him.
What was even more absurd was that a perfect mastery of the technique should only produce eight suns.
But that man… He had nine suns behind him!
The mysterious white-haired man slowly descended until he hovered five meters above Gabriel.
He made a challenging gesture and said, "Let's begin. I'll show you how to use the true God of Sun Technique…"
