Evidently, when Fang Zhengzhi was deciding over whose medicine to take, the battle between the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five and Nangong Mu was entering the fierce state.
With a loud boom, the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five retreated back at a very fast speed.
Meanwhile, he was biting onto a gigantic tree branch and one of the branches were torn down from the God of Tree.
A massive amount of blood flowed down.
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race shuddered in fear.
The Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was too powerful, even though Nangong Mu was able to change his form to a Tree of God, he was unable to fight head-on with the ancient beast.
“Is this the end?!”
“No, this can’t be it!”
“We can’t lose, Sir ‘Chou Qi’ will definitely lose to this Golden Dragon!”
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race were disappointed but still placed their last hopes on Nangong Mu as he was the only person who stood a chance to defeat the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five.
“Brat, give up, you are not worthy to be my opponent!” The Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five took a few steps back and spat out the gigantic tree branch in his mouth.
“No!!!” Nangong Mu replies with a roar.
Meanwhile, Nangong Mu who had turned into a bloody Tree of God seemed to have gone crazy. He grew taller and the tree branch grew to become at least twice as thick as before.
It was a terrifying scene.
However, the fruits on the tree seemed to have shrunk in size as the Tree of God grew rapidly.
“Still trying to struggle?” The Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was evidently furious.
As an ancient beast, he had his pride to uphold. He had already given Nangong Mu some face by fighting with him.
Should he continue fighting?
Would that still make him the ancient beast?
He swayed his gigantic body and pounded on Nangong Mu.
At this moment, there was a turn of event. A bright golden beam shot out from the blood-red Tree of God.
Then, more beams of golden radiance were seen.
The broken branches were completely healed as though life had surrounded the tree trunk and tree branches. There was even golden radiance flowing on the branches.
“What’s happening?!” The Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was surprised because based on his judgment, Nangong Mu was about to die.
Why did he suddenly look as if he suddenly came back to life?
This was extremely illogical.
The Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five looked around and realized something was wrong because the golden light seemed to be extending from Fang Zhengzhi’s direction.
“…”
“…”
Silence.
Not only did the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five kept silent, Fang Zhengzhi too. That was because Fang Zhengzhi seemed to have figured out what was wrong.
When he was severely injured and surrounded by Wu Yuer and the others, a tree branch extended from the ground and took something away from him.
The fruit of the Tree of God…
It was the fruit that he used to free the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five and the fruit that helped him open the Door of the Realm of God!
Nangong Mu seized the opportunity…
And snatched it away!
“I think… something bad is going to happen…” Fang Zhengzhi did not know what exactly would happen after Nangong Mu got his fruit of the Tree of God, but he had a premonition that something big was about to happen.
…
…
Holy Region, Heaven Zen Mountain.
A small black mountain dropped down from the Gate of God of the Monster Realm and landed on the altar at the top of the Heaven Zen Mountain, causing it to be knocked a few inches deeper into the ground.
The tremendous motion accompanied by the powerful aura stunned Qian Yu.
The black mountain had split open and countless spider-web like cracks had spread from the black mountain as if it was about to explode.
“Auntie, let’s go!”
Chi Guyan’s voice was still echoing around Qian Yu’s ears.
Qian Yu was stunned because she knew that Chi Guyan was not someone who easily gave up in fact of predicaments. When facing two Godly State experts, Chi Guyan did not look afraid at all.
Moreover, she attempted to kill them with all her might.
However, now…
Chi Guyan asked Qian Yu to leave without even knowing what was in the black mountain?
“No, you can go alone!” Qian Yu had made a decision. When she saw how powerful Chi Guyan was, she knew that only Chi Guyan was able to save the Heaven Zen Mountain.
“Auntie, you can go first, I will soon…”
Boom!
Before Chi Guyan could finish her sentence, the black mountain had already exploded and thick black clouds spurted out from the mountain.
In an instant, the entire top of the Heaven Zen Mountain was covered with the black clouds.
Rumble!
Rumble…
“…”
Bolts of lightning could be seen amongst the black clouds. However, the color of the lightning was neither purple nor golden but completely black.
Black bolts of lightning.
There was no radiance in the lightning at all.
However, they were definitely lightning because when they struck the ground, the white altar was completely sent flying.
Roar! A loud beastly roar was heard.
After that, a gigantic horn that was as black as ink gradually extended from the thick black clouds with bolts of black lightning wounded around it.
It was a single horn.
However, there were black swirl patterns as well as complicated symbols on it, giving one a terrifying pressure.
“What on earth is this?!” Qian Yu looked at the horn that had appeared from the thick black clouds and froze. The overpowering aura made her wobble.
Meanwhile, somewhere further away, Monster Emperor Baizhi, the Monster troops and the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower all stopped moving and stared at the thick black clouds.
“Could it be… it?!” Monster Emperor Baizhi’s expression changed and she instantly became pale when she felt the overwhelming aura.
She did not look relieved.
Instead, she looked fearful and shocked.
Monster Emperor Baizhi.
The powerful nine-tailed white fox. Although she was also an ancient beast, she was still overwhelmed by the horn’s aura when she saw it amongst the thick black clouds.
Boom! The ground cracked.
A sharp claw with black scales stepped out from the thick black clouds, producing dents and cracks on the ground.
“It’s a monster…” The disciples of the Ling Yun Tower were terrified when they saw the sharp claw, acting as though they had fallen into a glacier.
They had already figured it out.
When Chi Guyan and Qian Yu were shutting the Gate of God of the Realm of Monster together, one monster descended from the galaxy and reopened the Gate of God of the Realm of Monster.
A new Godly State expert?
No!
The monster in front of them was definitely not an ordinary Godly State expert.
Apart from the terrifyingly powerful aura, this monster was different from other monsters who had taken the form of a human. He appeared straightaway with his original form.
This felt like the olden days.
A monster was able to take the form of a human as he reached the level of a King and would be called the Monster King. They had comparable powers as a Sage and was, in fact, more powerful in terms of physical strength.
That was common sense.
However, some monsters were different.
They did not like the form of a human and would live with their original form as that was what made them proud. They did not care about changing into a form of a human that was “inferior” to them.
Roar! A beastly roar was heard again.
The thick black clouds gradually dispersed and revealed a huge figure which had white patches on its black scales.
Those were bones.
Chilling bones.
Bones covered by black stones.
“This… this is…” Qian Yu’s eyes widened and even someone who was as calm as her could not maintain her cool when she saw this gigantic figure.
It was too big.
Moreover, the single horn was too sharp and the aura flowing on it gave one a devilish feel.
“So, so huge…”
“What’s that?!”
“A dragon?!”
The disciples of the Ling Yun Tower were not afraid of death but fear rose from their hearts when they saw this monster.
Dragon!
The dragon in the legends!
The monster in front of them looked like a dragon with dragon-like claws and the body of a snake.
However, it was not a dragon.
That was because it did not have antlers like a dragon but instead a sharp horn. Moreover, there was an eye on the monster’s forehead.
It was a closely shut eye.
What exactly was it?
“Candle Dragon 1 !” Chi Guyan’s voice was heard. Meanwhile, she tightened her grip on her Traceless Sword.
“It really is him… he didn’t die?!” Monster Emperor Baizhi also staggered back and trembled uncontrollably.
As an ancient beast, Monster Emperor Baizhi had a very excellent sense of premonition.
She could feel the powerful devilish force in front of her. She also knew how terrifying the “monster” in front of her was.
Candle Dragon.
Also known as the Torch Dragon.
Of course, the most important thing was that it was a real God. He was respected as the “mountain God of Zhongshan” in the past.
“You are a white fox with only eight tails… who managed to cut your tail?” Candle Dragon asked and thick black clouds continuously tumbled around his body.
“It’s, it’s…”
“You are an ancient beast, how can you end up in such a miserable state? How embarrassing.” The Candle Dragon shook his head and turned to Qian Yu and Chi Guyan. “Must be you two… Hmm? Could this sword be?!”
“Candle Dragon… Auntie, leave first and I will stay to delay some time!” Chi Guyan pointed her Traceless Sword at the closed eye on the Candle Dragon’s forehead.
“Trying to leave? Haha, what a joke! I haven’t tasted fresh meat for such a long time!” The Candle Dragon laughed weirdly.
Then, a wave of thick black clouds flooded towards Chi Guyan and Qian Yu.
The thick black clouds were extremely black and looked as if they were about to swallow the entire sky.
“Run, Tower Master!”
“We will stay to delay some time!”
“Yes, sisters, let’s go! Protect Tower Master as she leaves!”
The disciples of the Ling Yun Tower began to attack the Candle Dragon in the thick black clouds. Countless beams of light continuously shone in the sky.
“No” Qian Yu’s eyes turned red and shook tremendously as she saw the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower charging towards the Candle Dragon.
She wanted to stop them.
However, it was too late.
The black clouds had covered too much area and surrounded the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower too.
“Ah!” A miserable cry was heard.
After that, a dozen dead bodies of the disciples fell to the ground and every corpse looked as if they were bitten by something.
Blood landed from the sky.
It painted a tinge of red to the black sky.
Qian Yu was extremely pale.
There were less than 200 disciples of the Ling Yun Tower and every one of them were as close as sisters.
However, in a blink of an eye, a dozen of them had died.
How would Qian Yu not feel hurt?
Frustration!
Shock and astonishment!
Various different emotions flooded Qian Yu’s mind and her heart bled.
She could never imagine such a turn of event in this battle. Everything was planned perfectly until the Candle Dragon came.
Monster!
That was the real monster of the ancient era.
Why didn’t this monster die? Moreover, he landed coincidentally on the Heaven Zen Mountain.
The intense fear and frustration caused Qian Yu to tremble but she could not bear the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower die because of her.
She wanted to save them.
However, she could barely save herself.
That was because the thick black clouds had reached her accompanied by a chilling gust of wind with a howl.
“I can’t believe the first God of the Monster Race who descended is Candle Dragon…” Monster Emperor Baizhi froze on the spot. She knew the Candle Dragon’s Powers very well.
However, if it was possible…
She did not want the Candle Dragon to descend.
“Gather!” Just as the thick black clouds were about to swallow Qian Yu, Chi Guyan’s voice was heard as she stood up from the ground.
Swoosh!
She dashed into the thick black clouds like a meteor.
Her pink dress flew in the sky and purple radiance wound around the Traceless sword. The powerful killing aura collided with the thick black clouds, producing rumbles.
Arrogance.
Chi Guyan knew who the Candle Dragon was but still decided to charge forward.
However, at the instant she charged into the thick black clouds, sounds of glass breaking were heard and the thick black clouds continued to move.
“Brat, can you use a better tactic?” The Candle Dragon was slightly shocked but he was only shocked for a second.
After that, he continued to move.
His claw that was covered with black scales slapped at Chi Guyan’s sword.
