The Water Scythe attacks that the Flood Dragon threw at Ning were too much for him to block. So instead, he ran as fast as he could to dodge.

He was trying to do what the other guy did, but was failing miserably at it. Thankfully, he was moving around so much that the Flood Dragon couldn't use the Water Shoot technique that broke his ribs last time.

"Stop. Running." The Flood Dragon shouted at him.

"You will kill me if I stop," Ning shouted.

"That. Is. Only. Because. You. Wish. To. Kill. Me. Too," the Flood Dragon spoke.

"Not true. I only want that fruit there," Ning said.

"You. Speak. Truth," the Flood Dragon said. "But. Taking. My. Fruit. Is. Even. Worse."

Suddenly, the barrier around Ning started to clear up as the water fell to the ground. However, as soon as it came down, it went back up as well.

The only thing that changed was that the radius of the barrier had become smaller. Ning had less room to maneuver now. Even the top of the barrier was close now.

He was now inside a water dome, with a Flood Dragon in the 5th Foundation Establishment realm as his enemy.

'Sh*t,' he thought. 'Am I going to lose here?'

"Huh? The barrier got smaller and covered up the top, I can't see anymore," Dion complained.

"Is Doctor Ning going to be alright?" Yelca asked anxiously.

The group kept taking a quick glance at the portal from time to time to see if Ning would leave. If he was to die inside that barrier, he would come out here.

******

Ning jumped forward and did a barrel roll as he dodged another water scythe flying towards him. 'Sh*t, this is too much. I can't keep this up anymore,' he thought.

It was a do-or-die moment for him now, and he decided to do something.

Suddenly, he stopped moving and raised his sword high in the air with both hands. His sword slowly started turning yellow, even a little golden.

This was his strongest attack and he hadn't used it ever since he reached the Foundation Establishment Realm. He was about to see how strong it was.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The glow got even brighter as he put everything he had into this attack. Even the Flood Dragon was a little surprised at the attack.

He suddenly opened his eyes and swung down his sword as hard as he could.

Radiant Holy Slash

Massive golden energy was released from the sword in the form of a slash. It flew at incredible speed and moved towards the Flood Dragon.

The Flood Dragon tried to dodge but the attack was too fast and it landed directly on its chest.

"ARRGGHHH" the Flood Dragon shouted.

Ning gave everything he had into this attack and now he had nothing left. He dully looked up and saw that he had managed to open a massive hole on the side of the Flood Dragon's chest.

The Flood Dragon suddenly flopped onto the water causing massive waves.

"I…. Did it," Ning said as he too dropped to the ground, very tired. He felt like sleeping, but he knew he couldn't.

"How much longer… before I get to leave?" he asked as he looked towards the sun to check its location. But what he was instead was just water.

Suddenly, he got more attentive. The barrier hadn't loosened yet, which meant—

The lake's surface started moving once more as the Flood Dragon stood up from it. Ning looked at its chest and saw that what was once its chest was substituted by water, which was slowly turning into blood, muscle, bones, and skin.

"How?" Ning couldn't help but ask. Only then did he remember the skill that the Flood Dragon had, the one he didn't know what it meant.

"Become like Water. Is that what it is?" Ning asked.

"That. Hurt." The Flood Dragon said and immediately sent out many water scythes.

Urgency helped give adrenaline to Ning's body to help him move, but at the same time, his body wasn't in the best of condition. So, he was just a moment late.

SLASH

His left arm took one of the scythes directly and was thus cleanly chopped off.

"ARGHH," Ning shouted as he tumbled on the ground and hit his back on the barrier. He tried to grab it when he was cut from it. Unfortunately, he wasn't lucky enough to have the wound be fatal. Thus, he now had to suffer the pain.

"ARGHH," he shouted once more and opened his eyes only to see that the Flood Dragon was right in front of him.

"Die. You. Hateful. Human."

Suddenly, it sent out a blast of water right at Ning. It was the same one that broke his ribs. Ning brought up both his arms to block, but only then remembered that he now only had one.

Still, he used that to stop the attack. The water hit his hand and his torso. He blocked it for a few seconds, but then the Flood Dragon made the water smaller and in return, more deadly.

The water sprout was now around 10 centimeters in diameter and it was ripping away Ning's hand little by little. First the skin, then the muscle, then the bones, then the muscle on the other side, and finally the skin.

His right arm was destroyed too. Finally, the attack landed on his chest and it started ripping away his skin again. The force was starting to break his ribs too. At any moment, he would be sent out of the realm.

The pain relief medicine he had taken had already stopped working given how much pain he was in and the slightly mended ribs were back to breaking and got even worse.

'I lost,' Ning thought and gave into the pain to lose and leave. But then, he couldn't feel the water anymore. He opened his eyes to see that the Flood Dragon was still blasting away water, but he didn't feel anything.

Instead, he heard a single thing.
