Ultra: Dragon Sword Journey

As expected, just one day had passed. As the morning sun shone across the land, people eagerly opened their newspapers and browsed major news websites, only to be surprised to find that the entire page was dominated by reports of the awe-inspiring and powerful divine image emitted by Tiga! Clear and spectacular photos, one after another, detailed the glorious moment of the divine image's manifestation, and related reports flooded in like an overwhelming flood.

Images of the divine apparitions of the Tiga statue spread like wildfire, reaching every corner of the world. From bustling cities to remote villages, from vast lands to vast oceans, no one seemed to escape the impact of this wave of enthusiasm. For a time, the fact that the giants were the patron saints of humanity became a hot topic of discussion on the streets, with wave after wave of discussion.

Meanwhile, some devout Buddhists were particularly excited. They unhesitatingly placed the statue of Tiga on their altars, where it was worshipped alongside other Buddha statues. Incense smoke curled upwards, and the sound of chanting filled the air, as people expressed their sincere reverence for this new "god."

However, amidst such fervent admiration and adoration, one person felt rather embarrassed—Team Daigo. He could never have imagined that his use of the Patronus Charm while transformed into Tiga would cause such a sensation. Every time he thought about it, he blushed and lowered his head. Fortunately, his true identity had not yet been revealed to the outside world, otherwise those frenzied fans would have swarmed him and surrounded him.

Even TPC convened an urgent meeting to discuss this phenomenon. Director Gigan, who had always been reserved and even skeptical about the Titans, now completely changed his stance. Tiga's performance was simply too stunning, like a true god descending upon earth, displaying an incomparably divine presence. If anyone dared to spread any negative comments about Tiga at this moment, there would undoubtedly be a flood of public outrage and criticism, overwhelming any opposition.

Not long after, Dagu and Zhao Ming set out on their journey again. A god who wishes to remain revered must constantly advance, remaining strong to avoid being vulnerable. They discovered a place resembling a paradise on earth. Here, peaks and valleys cascade, lush trees shade the landscape, and a crystal-clear stream gurgles. The most striking feature is a majestic waterfall. The water cascades down like a silver thread, crashing against the rocks and creating countless shimmering splashes, creating a deafening roar.

Facing this magnificent sight, the two men were overwhelmed with emotion and immediately decided to devote themselves to practicing swordsmanship here in the hope of improving their own strength. Zhao Ming, as an experienced senior, took the lead in teaching Dagu how to harness the power of various natural elements to condense and release astonishingly powerful sword energy.

He said to Dagu with a serious expression: "If you want to successfully display powerful sword techniques, you must learn to perceive the natural elements around you. Wind, fire, water, earth and other elements have unique forms and powers. You need to observe carefully and understand the mysteries, and then try to skillfully combine these elements and integrate them into the sword energy you display."

Dagu listened intently to Zhao Ming's instructions, then slowly closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and wholeheartedly felt the elemental fluctuations around him. Time passed, and at first, Dagu had no idea what was happening. But as he adjusted his breathing rhythm, he gradually entered a state of emptiness and finally caught the faint elemental aura.

After an unknown amount of time, Dagu suddenly opened his eyes. The ordinary wooden sword in his hand began to shimmer with a strange light. Then, Dagu took a deep breath, gathered all his strength into his arm, and swung the sword with all his might! In an instant, a dazzling sword energy roared out, rushing straight towards the surging waterfall like lightning.

There was a loud boom as the sword energy and the waterfall collided fiercely, sending up a shower of water that resembled a massive fireworks display. Dagu stared at the scene with wide eyes, his heart filled with indescribable excitement and joy—he had actually unleashed such powerful sword energy!

However, at this moment, Zhao Ming's voice sounded again: "Although you have done quite well this time, remember not to be proud and complacent. Only by practicing the technique of condensing sword energy in this human form to perfection, when we transform into giants to fight in the future, can we use these elemental forces more freely and exert more powerful combat effectiveness."

Dagu looked at Zhao Ming excitedly, his eyes gleaming with a fiery light, filled with a desire for affirmation and recognition. Like a student waiting for praise from his teacher, he eagerly asked, "Did I do well?"

Zhao Ming nodded slightly in agreement. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, forming a faint smile. He replied softly, "Well, I guess we've just gotten started, but this is just the most basic application. Next, let's try more complex and sophisticated element fusion techniques."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ming reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword. Instantly, a stream of icy blue air gushed out from the sword like a surging tide, spreading rapidly and enveloping the entire blade in the blink of an eye. However, at this moment, a surprising scene occurred—a blazing flame, like a nimble red snake, tightly wrapped around the ice-covered sword!

The two elements of ice and fire, which should have restrained each other, miraculously achieved a perfect fusion at this moment. They coexisted harmoniously and exuded a heart-pounding and powerful aura.

Zhao Ming waved his arm lightly, and the sword in his hand moved with the momentum. A sharp sword energy suddenly shot out, like a nimble and free-flowing dragon, rushing towards the nearby waterfall with lightning speed. Wherever the sword energy passed, the water vapor that originally filled the air seemed to be summoned by some mysterious force and quickly condensed into crystal clear icicles.

Yet, faintly visible within these icicles were balls of blazing fire, like gems embedded in the ice, emitting a dazzling light. When this sword energy, imbued with the power of ice and fire, fiercely struck the waterfall, a deafening roar echoed, sending countless water scattering in all directions, forming a vast expanse of white mist. Even the once relentless and majestic waterfall paused briefly, as if time had frozen.

Dagu, who was standing nearby, was stunned by the sight. His mouth was so wide open that an egg could almost fit in. He stared at the shocking scene in front of him, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"The Dragon Sword Path is like a treasury containing endless treasures, among which the elemental Magic Bullet Keys are the dazzling pearls. I am the lucky one standing at the pinnacle of this treasure house. This high starting point naturally allows me to go further on the road ahead. Tiga has no such shortcuts. He can only crawl forward slowly but steadily, like a snail, one step at a time." Zhao Ming continued, "Don't underestimate this seemingly simple journey. The hardships and difficulties involved can only be understood by those who have experienced it firsthand!"

After a long moment, Dagu finally took a deep breath, as if awakening from a dream. He slowly closed his eyes and began to calm his mind, concentrating on sensing and comprehending the diverse combinations of elements around him. Time passed minute by minute, and finally, after a tremendous effort and exploration, the sword in Dagu's hand began to glow with a strange, iridescent light. A howling wind rose, sweeping up sand and water droplets from the ground. At the same time, faint but distinct flames gathered from all directions, surging towards the sword.

Dagu let out a deafening roar, and all his strength instantly converged on the sword in his hand. With this powerful force, he swung the sword forward, and a dazzling sword energy suddenly shot out!

This sword energy unexpectedly contained a variety of mysterious and powerful elemental forces. They intertwined and merged, giving it a heart-pounding aura. The sword energy roared towards the massive waterfall at astonishing speed, its might like a ferocious dragon pouncing on its prey.

The moment the sword energy collided with the waterfall, the entire cascade seemed to be struck by an irresistible force. The rushing water, as if being forcibly pushed by an invisible giant hand, began to slowly tilt backwards. Splashes of water and mist filled the air, creating a truly spectacular scene.

At the same time, Zhao Ming, standing nearby, also displayed his extraordinary swordsmanship. His movements were as swift as lightning, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake. The sword in his hand danced with a light and graceful air, yet the force it wielded was as fierce and powerful as a violent storm, dazzling and impossible to grasp.

Zhao Ming's sword seemed to have become one with the wind. Every time he swung it, a powerful gust of wind would whistle. The wind swept through, toppling the surrounding vegetation and sending sand and rocks flying.

Then, his moves suddenly underwent a miraculous transformation. His sword instantly erupted in flames, its entire blade turning a brilliant crimson, as if a flaming sword burning with endless fury. At this moment, Zhao Ming's every attack was laced with blazing flames, like a roaring fire dragon soaring into the sky, its majestic momentum enough to shake heaven and earth.

However, in the blink of an eye, his swordsmanship underwent another astonishing transformation. This time, his sword transformed into a violent blade shaped like lightning. Dazzling lightning flashed and crackled, as if countless silver snakes were entwined and swimming around it. The blade, enhanced by the power of lightning, became incredibly thick and powerful, resembling a thunder god's sword capable of easily rendring the sky.

He flashed, his sword swung out, each strike accompanied by the furious force of lightning. The lightning was like a raging torrent pouring down from the heavens, like rolling thunder, shaking the world with its immense force. For a moment, the sky and clouds changed color, lightning and thunder roared, and it was terrifying.

At the last moment, Zhao Ming's swordsmanship underwent an astonishing change. The sword body that was originally flashing with lightning gradually turned into khaki, becoming a heavy sword in the shape of earth.

At this moment, the sword in his hand seemed no longer an ordinary weapon, but a towering, heavy mountain like Mount Tai. The sword was thick and solid, emitting an ancient and steady aura, as if it could truly suppress the vast earth.

With each swing of his sword, he brought with him an immense force, as if the earth were trembling and the mountains were shaking. This force was overwhelming and unstoppable, its power seemingly limitless.

Zhao Ming then took a deep breath and continuously poured elemental power into his sword. Instantly, the four different powers of wind, fire, thunder, and earth began to merge, eventually converging into a slender yet destructive sword energy.

This sword energy resembled a mighty dragon, its head held high, soaring into the sky, swirling with blazing flames and sharp lightning, accompanied by the whistling sound of a fierce wind and the rich aura of earth. The energy it contained was truly earth-shattering, enough to shatter mountains and rivers and dim the sun and moon. Zhao Ming's gaze focused, and with a sharp flick of his wrist, he unleashed this terrifying sword energy forward. With a resounding thud, the massive rock before him was completely devoured the instant it came into contact with the sword energy, dissipating into the air.

"The Sword of Destruction?" Zhao Ming muttered to himself, chewing over the fleeting glimpse he had just had. That being, capable of instantly devouring matter, was like a ferocious beast. Using it to fight the alien beasts would be like a tiger among a flock of sheep.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhao Ming slowly retracted his sword, then turned to look at Dagu who was beside him with a shocked look on his face, and said earnestly: "Gather the energy into a thread, gather the energy into a blade, gather the energy into a sword. Tiga does not have any unique weapons, so if you want to learn swordsmanship well, this is the path you need to work hard on in the future. Remember, this road may be full of thorns, but as long as you persevere, you will achieve something. Come on! Dagu! The future battles will be full of hardships."

Sensing a hidden meaning in Zhao Ming's words, Dagu asked suspiciously, "Have you gained insight into some unknown secret? For example, the truth behind the destruction of the ancient times?" Zhao Ming could understand and interpret the ancient texts; perhaps he already knew the truth behind the destruction!

"You are really smart. The final darkness is about to awaken. It is like a giant beast lurking in the depths of the sea. The culprit who destroyed the super-ancient civilization is the evil god - Gatanjea, the ruler of darkness," Zhao Ming said solemnly, his tone revealing his deep fear of it.

Dagu's eyes widened, staring at Zhao Ming in disbelief. He simply couldn't accept that the once-glorious civilization of giants had been destroyed by the dark ruler, Gatanjea. In Dagu's mind, giants had always been powerful and mysterious beings, possessing unparalleled strength and wisdom, protecting the Earth and humanity.

However, at this moment, Dagu received incredible news: those giants once considered invincible now had an unstoppable opponent! And this enemy was so powerful, its strength so terrifying that it was even enough to completely destroy the entire super-ancient civilization. Upon hearing this news, Dagu's heart was instantly filled with doubt and unease.

Dagu knew nothing about the nature of Gatanjea, nor why it was determined to destroy the ancient civilization. But he understood clearly that he had shouldered the heavy responsibility of confronting this formidable enemy and defending the safety of Earth and all humanity. Dagu took a deep breath, striving to calm the surging emotions within him. He knew that now was not the time to give in to shock and fear. The most urgent task was to quickly find an effective strategy to resist Gatanjea.

At the same time, Dagu firmly believes that as long as all human beings can work together and unite as one, they will definitely be able to defeat this extremely powerful evil force and successfully protect the earth and the beautiful future of mankind.

At this moment, Zhao Ming on the side said: "Okay, don't put too much pressure on yourself. As the saying goes, 'more haste, less speed'. Thinking too much will not help. Since things have already happened, let's just fight it out. What is coming will eventually come."
