Grinding EXP From Fireball Skill

As Li Wei was about to reach the Saint Dragon King's island, he was suddenly ambushed by a mysterious and powerful foe.

Even his proudest attack—the Big Sun Nuclear Explosion Technique—failed to inflict any harm.

Just as Li Wei and Saint Xi were about to be captured by the mysterious enemy, a golden light repelled their attacker.

Li Wei lost consciousness in the aftershock of the battle.

When he awoke and opened his eyes, he saw two Holy Giant Dragons before him.

Li Wei lay on the ground, stunned, as he stared at the two similar Holy Giant Dragons before him—one large, one small.

Half a minute passed before he finally processed what he was seeing.

The larger of the two was the Saint Dragon King, the very one he had been so desperately searching for.

'My brain must have been rattled. Took a full thirty seconds to reboot.'

'A reboot speed that probably puts me ahead of a whole 0.01% of all Legendary Mages in the world.'

Seeing Li Wei awake, Saint Xi happily drew closer.

Li Wei sat up and realized he was on the small island.

It was a barren island, comprised of nothing but rock.

Not a single blade of grass grew anywhere.

This was, in fact, a stone island that the Saint Dragon King had created after arriving here, so that he could remain safely in the Underground Sea.

He subconsciously asked, "How long was I unconscious?"

Saint Xi replied, "About five minutes."

The Saint Dragon King looked down at Li Wei, and a deep, powerful voice reached his ears.

"My apologies. The situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to hold back. I injured you by mistake."

Li Wei shook his head. "It has nothing to do with you. If you hadn't intervened in time, Saint Dragon King, I might be dead already."

"By the way, what was that thing?" Li Wei asked.

'To think that even the Big Sun Nuclear Explosion Technique couldn't damage it...'

The thought made his scalp tingle and sent a chill down his spine.

The Saint Dragon King answered, "The Evil God worshipped by the Naga Race."

"An... Evil God!?"

Li Wei sucked in a sharp breath. He never imagined he would be attacked by one.

This was completely different from the remote Evil God Curses he had faced before.

This time, he had suffered a direct attack from an Evil God.

And the result? He had been utterly powerless to fight back.

However, since his opponent was an Evil God, Li Wei wasn't too discouraged by the fact that he was no match for it.

He hadn't even broken through to Tier Eight yet.

Thinking he could slay a god at his current level was just wishful thinking.

'Once I'm stronger, though, maybe I'll be able to do it.'

The Evil God that attacked him had just been secretly added to his mental hit list.

The day his power was sufficient, it would be the first one he'd make an example of.

The Saint Dragon King explained, "I was entrusted by the Merfolk Race to stand guard here and prevent the Naga Race's Evil God from entering Sea Abyss City through the Underground Sea."

Li Wei gazed at the colossal Saint Dragon King, inwardly astonished.

'The Saint Dragon King is capable of guarding the Underground Sea and holding off an Evil God Level powerhouse of the Naga Race.'

'That alone is a testament to his immense power.'

'In that case, just how powerful must the Demon Dragon King be, who defeated this Saint Dragon King to become the ruler of the Dragon Race?'

'It's unimaginable.'

The Saint Dragon King glanced at Saint Xi and sensed the aura of Philis within her bloodline.

He knew she was Philis's descendant.

Back then, the treacherous Demon Dragon King had plotted to harm Philis, luring the Saint Dragon King into a rescue attempt.

He had set a trap and ambushed him.

It was precisely because of this incident that the Saint Dragon King's irreversible decline began.

Ultimately, he was defeated by the Demon Dragon King and fled to the Endless Sea.

The Saint Dragon King spoke to Saint Xi, but it was as if he were also recounting his tale to his deceased daughter, Philis.

"A Demon God intervened in my battle against the Demon Dragon King. Although the Dragon God discovered it and tried to stop it in time, I still lost."

"After my defeat, I fled Dragon Island, gravely wounded, and made my way to the depths of the Endless Sea."

"I rested and recovered in the Endless Sea, waiting for an opportunity to strike back."

"But then, unexpectedly, news arrived of the Dragon God's fall."

"Before he fell, the Dragon God came to see me one last time. He entrusted a Divine Fragment to me and told me that members of the ancient Merfolk Race were hidden within the Endless Sea."

"I searched the Endless Sea for a long time until, by chance, I encountered a Mermaid being hunted by the Naga Race. Only after I saved her did I learn that she was the last of the merfolk's royal bloodline."

"She brought me to Sea Abyss City. Using an Ancient Array that had survived there since antiquity, I was able to conceal my aura, preventing the Demon Dragon King from finding me."

"And so, I have remained in Sea Abyss City, recuperating and restoring my strength."

"The Merfolk Race has suffered terribly under the aggression of the Naga Race. To repay them for granting me sanctuary, I offered to guard the Underground Sea and prevent the Naga from invading Sea Abyss City."

"Relying on the half of a Divine Fragment that the Dragon God gave me, I have repeatedly repelled the Naga's Evil God—who cannot unleash its full power here—and dealt heavy blows to their invasion forces on multiple occasions."

"In the blink of an eye, several hundred years have passed. I never imagined I would one day meet a descendant of Philis."

The Saint Dragon King gazed at Saint Xi, his expression filled with emotion.

Philis had died at the hands of the Demon Dragon King.

It was a miracle that her descendant had survived to this day.

The Saint Dragon King had never even known Philis was pregnant.

At this thought, the Saint Dragon King's heart filled with guilt and self-reproach.

'If it weren't for my struggle against the Demon Dragon King, Philis would never have died at his hands.'

Soon, however, a look of determination appeared in the Saint Dragon King's eyes.

'Regret and self-blame are useless; they cannot bring back those who are gone.'

'I also know full well that the Demon Gods were the ones fanning the flames from behind the scenes, encouraging the Demon Dragon King to start a civil war within the Dragon Race.'

'It wasn't a conflict I could have avoided simply by wishing it.'

'The Demon Gods had their sights set on the Dragon Race long ago.'

'And it wasn't just the Demon Gods, but the other gods in the heavens as well.'

'They were culprits, too.'

'The Dragon God has fallen, and the murderers were the Demon Gods and the other gods.'
