The Nightmare Dragon King's techniques had no effect on Nezha. Unlike a proper Primordial Immortal, whose methods are vast and varied, his spiritual essence, nurtured for countless years, was nearly shattered after taking a beating from Nezha, his dragon body already reduced by half.
He wanted to flee but found no escape. The ancient formation pressed down firmly, sealing him completely with nowhere to go.
Finally, after being repeatedly pummeled by Nezha, the dragon simply lay flat on the ground in complete surrender: "Go ahead, keep hitting! If you dare to strike me, I dare to die!"
Nezha found the sight of the defeated dragon king amusing. Truth be told, this dragon, confined here for ages, hadn't really harmed anyone. Nezha wasn't intent on killing him either; instead, he felt pity for the dragon's lack of dragon sinew. Gesturing at the sprawled-out dragon, he beckoned, "Come here."
