To lure it away, it had to be taken sufficiently far away. If they were to approach the golden apple tree now, they would be killed by the dragon when it rushed back. This plan was clearly useless.
"What do you think?" An Sheng asked Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen thought for a moment and said, "We definitely can't fight it head-on. The chances of death are too high. We must think of other solutions."
After a pause, Zhou Wen continued, "I do have an idea. If I can hold back the black dragon for a few seconds, do you have the confidence to pluck the golden apple?"
"How long can you last?" An Sheng asked after some thought.
"At most ten seconds and at least five seconds. However, before that, I need to use a Companion Beast to confirm it again before I can determine the exact amount of time," Zhou Wen said after serious consideration.
"If you can hold it back for six seconds, I can pluck the golden apple and return," An Sheng said after careful observation.
