Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

After solving the test of the Thunder Knight and getting his help, Qin Feng and his party continued to march towards the Iron Wall City. Along the way, they kept discussing how to deal with the dragon, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

"We already know that the power of the magic dragon comes from the 'Dragon Heart', but how can we break its defense?" Ye Li asked.

"This requires a detailed plan." Qin Feng pondered, "Thunder Knight, how much do you know about the defense of the magic dragon?"

"Not only is its defense strong, but it can also repair itself." Thunder Knight explained, "If you want to break through its defense, you must concentrate your firepower in a short period of time so that it doesn't have time to recover."

"It sounds like we're going to have to go all out this time," Chu Tian said, "but this is what we're good at."

"I think we should find its weakness." Lin Xiao suddenly interrupted, "Just like the last time we found the core of the guardian, maybe the dragon will have something similar this time."

"That makes sense," Zhang Meng nodded, "As long as we can find the weakness, we can achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"But the question is, where is the dragon's weakness?" Ye Li frowned.

"Well," Lin Xiao said with a smile, "we can slowly look for it while fighting!"

Everyone laughed and felt a little relieved. Qin Feng also smiled: "Okay, then let's get ready for the upcoming battle."

At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hoof sounds came from a distance. Everyone looked up and saw a man in gorgeous clothes riding a tall horse, rushing towards them in a hurry.

"Who is this?" Zhang Meng frowned.

"Are you here to collect debts?" Chu Tian joked.

"We don't owe anyone money." Ye Li smiled helplessly.

When the man got closer, he quickly got off his horse and walked to Qin Feng, panting. His face was covered with sweat, and it was obvious that he had been galloping all the way.

"Please...excuse me...are you a team of adventurers?" the man asked, panting.

Qin Feng nodded: "Yes, who are you?"

The man took a deep breath and straightened up. "My name is Louis, and I'm the steward of Iron Wall City. I heard that you were coming to help us fight the dragon, so I came here to greet you."

"Oh, it seems that we are still a little famous now." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

"We are already famous." Chu Tian responded proudly.

"Louis, since you are here to pick us up, you must know something about the dragon, right?" Qin Feng asked.

Louis nodded, "Yes, I know something. The dragon seems to have become restless recently. It has begun to attack villages farther away and even tried to enter the city. We suspect it is looking for something."

"Looking for something?" Ye Li asked curiously.

"We don't know either." Louis shook his head helplessly, "But its behavior seems very impatient, as if time is very precious to it."

"This is interesting." Qin Feng thought, "It seems we need to act as soon as possible."

Just as they were about to get back on the road, Lin Xiao suddenly found something in the bushes nearby.

"Wait! Come and see this!" Lin Xiao shouted.

When everyone walked over to take a look, they saw a tattered wooden box in the bushes, half buried in the soil, as if it had been buried there in a hurry.

"What is this?" Zhang Meng squatted down and began to dig.

"It looks like a hidden treasure chest." Lin Xiao said excitedly, "Maybe there are good things in it!"

"No matter what it is, we'll find out if we open it." Qin Feng said.

With Zhang Meng's efforts, the wooden box was soon dug out. The lock of the box had long been rusted and broken, and Qin Feng kicked open the lid of the box, revealing the things inside.

"Wow!" Chu Tian exclaimed.

The wooden box was filled with gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as some things that looked like magic scrolls. Lin Xiao's eyes lit up and he almost jumped up.

"We're rich!" Lin Xiao shouted excitedly.

"How come these things are here?" Ye Li asked curiously.

"It looks like some unlucky guy buried it hastily while escaping." Qin Feng guessed, "Maybe he was afraid of being discovered by the dragon."

"No matter who it is, we have really made a profit now." Zhang Meng laughed, "These treasures are all considerable wealth."

"However, be careful first." Thunder Knight warned, "These things may contain curses or other traps."

"Yes, let's check it first." Qin Feng agreed.

Everyone carefully checked the items in the wooden box. Ye Li picked up a magic scroll and looked at it carefully: "These scrolls look like magic used to summon some elemental creatures."

"Summoning scroll?" Chu Tian was surprised. "These are not common."

"And these jewels look like they are used to cast some kind of protective spell." Lin Xiao picked up a few sparkling gems, "These are all good stuff!"

"Maybe these things can come in handy when we fight the dragon." Qin Feng said, "But we have to use them with caution."

As they continued to search the wooden box, suddenly, a bright light flashed from the bottom of the box. Everyone quickly stepped back, only to see a crystal clear stone slowly emerging from the light.

"What is this?" Zhang Meng asked.

"These seem to be... fragments of the 'Dragon's Heart'." The Thunder Knight said in surprise, "No wonder the dragon is so anxious, it might be looking for these fragments!"

"Then can the fragment we got be used to fight against the dragon?" Ye Li asked.

"I'm not sure." Thunder Knight shook his head, "But this is indeed an important discovery. Perhaps we can use it to weaken the power of the dragon."

"Okay, let's put it away first." Qin Feng said, "Anyway, this is an advantage."

Just as everyone was discussing how to use this fragment, a burst of wild laughter suddenly came from a distance. Everyone immediately became alert and looked up, only to see a man in a gorgeous black robe slowly approaching with a staff that was glowing red in his hand.

"You actually found a fragment of the 'Dragon Heart'?" The black-robed man sneered, "What an unexpected surprise."

"Who are you?" Qin Feng asked, gripping the Dragon Shadow Sword tightly.

“It doesn’t matter who I am.” The black-robed man laughed even more strangely. “What’s important is that you found something that belongs to me.”

"Your stuff? Are you kidding?" Lin Xiao retorted, "We just found this!"

"You are wrong, little girl. These things originally belonged to me." The man in black robe said, "However, seeing how hard you have worked, I have decided to give you a choice - hand over the fragments, and I will let you live."

"Either hand over the fragments or fight." Chu Tian said coldly, "Which one do you think we will choose?"

"Fight?" The black-robed man laughed, "You don't know who you are fighting against!"

As he spoke, he raised his staff, and the red light suddenly became more intense, as if the entire sky was dyed blood red.

Just as everyone was preparing to fight, suddenly, a familiar voice came from a distance: "You guys, why do you always cause so much trouble?"

Everyone looked back and saw the old man running over breathlessly with his tattered prop bag. He looked like he had just escaped from some dangerous place, but he had a confident smile on his face.

"Old man Dian? Why are you here?" Ye Li asked in surprise.

"I can't stand watching a bunch of rookies like you get bullied." The old man snorted and took out something that looked like a toy from his bag. "Here, try my latest invention - the electromagnetic wave jammer!"

"What the hell is this?" Lin Xiao asked in confusion.

"Just watch!" The old man pointed the electromagnetic wave jammer in the direction of the man in black robe and pressed a button.

Instantly, a dazzling blue light shot out and hit the black-robed man's staff. Before the black-robed man could react, the staff was knocked away and the red light dissipated.

"You! How dare you!" the black-robed man roared.

"Of course I dare!" said the old man with electricity proudly, "Who do you think I am? I am the old man with electricity!"

The man in black robe was obviously enraged. He roared and rushed towards everyone again.

"Everyone be careful!" Qin Feng shouted, "Get ready for battle!"

The battle broke out again, and Qin Feng and his team had a fierce duel with the black-robed man. The addition of the old man of electricity greatly increased their combat effectiveness. Lin Xiao and Ye Li quickly cooperated and used the props of the old man of electricity to interfere with the attack of the black-robed man.

Although the black-robed man was very powerful, he gradually became powerless under the joint attack of everyone. His movements became slower and slower, and his defense gradually became lax.

"Now!" Qin Feng shouted, pointing the Dragon Shadow Sword directly at the black-robed man's chest.

The man in black robe was forced to retreat again and again. Finally, he waved his hand helplessly and released a black mist, then quickly escaped.

"This guy is so slippery!" Chu Tian stamped his feet in anger.

"Don't chase him." Qin Feng said, "He can't run far. We have to quickly send the fragments back to Tiebi City and prepare to deal with the dragon."

After the battle, everyone packed up and continued to head towards the Iron Wall City. The old man followed behind with his prop bag, humming a little tune, and seemed to be in a very good mood.

"You came at the right time." Ye Li said to the old man with a smile.

"Hey, I'm always keeping an eye on you guys." The old man replied proudly, "You guys are my favorite group of adventurers."

"We are also glad that you can come to help." Qin Feng said, "Next, we have greater challenges waiting for us."

"No matter what the challenge is, as long as we are together, we can overcome it." Lin Xiao said happily.

Everyone smiled at each other, and continued to move forward with new goals and hopes. The threat of the dragon still exists, but they believe that as long as they unite, nothing can stop them.
