Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System-Chapter 644 - 644: Fighting the Prince

Alex drove his elbow forward and aimed for Saryx's throat.
Saryx tilted his head just enough.
The elbow grazed scales and sparked, like striking metal.
Then Saryx's knee rose.
Alex twisted his torso and took it on a layered protection barrier.
BANG!!!
The shield cracked.
Alex crashed into the ground, creating a deep crater.
Mingyue watched from the side, observing Saryx's current strength.
She wanted to see what kind of power this prince was using.
It had been a while since his last fight was recorded. As she expected, the dragon prince had become stronger.
He had mastery over space power, and that lingering energy in his body had evolved into something violent, something that could disperse and tear apart other energy.
Saryx's mouth curled as he enjoyed the fight.
"Nice. You're quite strong."
He stepped forward again, and the space around him shivered.
His fist came again.
Alex drew a rune this time.
BAM!!!!
Their auras collided.
A bright ring of pressure exploded outward and flattened the grass in a wide circle.
Alex's eyes narrowed.
He pushed runes into his palms, trying to capture the prince's arm, while also reading more detail from his body to understand his strength.
"A technique that lets you absorb star energy. Interesting," Alex said. "Where did you find this, Saryx?"
Saryx's eyes flicked slightly, and his grin widened.
"You want this prince to tell you? Beat me first, you pest."
He twisted his wrist.
Alex's grip almost broke, and his runes shattered.
Alex used the moment to retreat.
A huge warhammer formed in his palm.
With his other hand, he drew a rune in the air.
A chain shot out like a whip and wrapped around Saryx's forearm.
Saryx looked down at it, unimpressed.
Then his violent energy exploded.
The rune chain burned and shattered into ash.
He raised his head again, and his voice turned colder.
"You think you can bind me with these tricks?"
Alex didn't answer.
He dashed forward, appearing in front of Saryx in a blink.
BAM!!!!
The warhammer hit Saryx's chest.
BOOM!!!
Saryx's body shifted back half a step.
Only half.
The ground behind him cratered, but he stayed upright, and his eyes lit with interest.
Mingyue's frown deepened. "Dragon race's innate strength…"
Saryx rolled his shoulders like he was loosening up.
"What a good massage."
He vanished again.
This time he appeared behind Alex.
Alex turned, and his warhammer met the punch.
BOOM!!!!
Mingyue's eyes sharpened.
A thin wall of ice appeared between Alex and Saryx.
CRACK!!!
Saryx's punch shattered it, but it bought a sliver of time.
Alex twisted away and countered, driving the warhammer into Saryx's ribs with a cutting rune.
CLANG!!!!
Saryx's scales sparked, and a thin line appeared, a shallow cut.
A single dark drop hit the grass and hissed like acid.
Then it evaporated, like it had never existed.
Saryx's gaze turned sharp.
"To take this prince's blood," he said coldly, "you should be prepared to pay the price."
"ROARRR!!!"
A low growl came from his chest, then turned into a roar that shook the trees.
His violent aura burst outward like a wave.
Dark scales along his shoulders and spine lifted slightly, and his body grew bulkier.
The next moment he appeared in front Alex.
BOOM!!!
Alex raised the warhammer and blocked.
The impact cracked the ground under his feet.
Saryx appeared again, from the side, then from above, then behind.
Each strike carried that violent energy, and every contact tried to shred Alex's runes like paper.
Alex's jaw tightened.
He started stacking rune formations, one after another, reinforcing his arms, reinforcing the hammer, reinforcing the space around him.
BAM!!!
The warhammer swept in a wide arc, forcing pressure outward like a wall.
Saryx's fist hit it head-on.
CLANG!!!!
The sound was sharp and heavy, like two mountains colliding.
Mingyue's eyes narrowed.
She could feel it now.
The prince strength is not to be underestimated.
He's far stronger than the governor and could fight at the same level with them.
Two swords appeared in her hands.
Their edges were wrapped in purple ice, colder than before, like it was cutting the space around the blade.
Saryx glanced at her and laughed once.
"Another Pest. Good come, the more the merrier."
Mingyue She cut the space between them with a clean slash, and a line of purple frost appeared in the air.
Saryx's next move hit that line.
His body jolted for a fraction of a second.
It's like the space has turned frozen solid.
Alex used that opening.
He stepped in and slammed the warhammer down.
BAM!!!!
Saryx raised his arm to block.
The hammer hit his forearm scales and sparked, then drove him into the ground.
The earth cratered again.
Saryx roared, violent aura surging, trying to blow them away.
Mingyue crossed her twin swords in front of her.
A purple ice screen formed, taking the wave head-on.
The screen cracked, but it held long enough.
Alex drew a rune with his free hand and pressed it into the warhammer head.
The hammer's surface lit up with layered symbols, locking the impact force into a contained burst.
He didn't use his flame power now, since he know dragon has innate protection over fire.
Using against them will be foolish endeavor.
He swung again.
Saryx ripped himself out of the crater and met the hammer with a punch.
CLANG!!!!
This time Mingyue attacked from the side.
Her twin blades moved like scissors aiming for joints and gaps,.
Saryx twisted his torso and avoided the deep cuts, but purple frost still stuck to his scales, spreading in thin lines and slowing his movement.
Alex's warhammer kept coming.
BAM!
CLANG!
BOOM!!!
Each exchange shook the land.
Each clash sent pressure waves across the green field, bending grass, ripping soil, and snapping branches.
The once beautiful green forest soon turned into battlefield.
Saryx's speed was still terrifying.
He kept warping positions, striking from weird angles.
But Mingyue's ice lines kept cutting his movement.
Everytime Alex will come using this opportunity to attack him.
Saryx's eyes narrowed, finally serious.
He inhaled, chest expanding, violent aura gathering around his throat.
The air around his mouth turned bright, like it was about to ignite.
Mingyue's blades lifted.
Alex's warhammer rose.
They moved together, ready to crash into him before he could release whatever came next.
