Zhu Yi’s Immortal Soul Avatar, the Literary Taiji Diagram, combined with the Higan Golden Bridge to turn into a golden light giant.
Between the palm of the golden light giant, a mystic light appeared. It flashed non-stop, appearing and then disappearing out of existence. It appeared to contain the essence of an instance.
This was derived from Lin Feng’s Instantaneous Glow. Zhu Yi opened his arms and the light fell in all four directions like grains of sand. Immediately, the light turned into a light river.
Under Zhu Yi’s control, the light from the light river landed the dimensional tear that the Azure Sky Dragon King was trying to leave by.
The space, that was already trembling non-stop, suddenly quietened down instantaneously. Then, it started to distort violently.
The Black Sea, which could be seen through the light image, raged even more furiously. The light image seemed to be on the verge of destruction.
The Azure Sky Dragon King appeared stuck in the void. His face betrayed a look of shock and then, he looked at the Black Sea which was far, far away disappearing. His escape route distorted into a black hole.
Space and time were being destroyed non-stop and the black hole expanded in size ceaselessly. A horrifying tear spread in the void around them.
The Earth Dragon King roared and once again, lunged toward Zhu Yi. Zhu Yi’s golden light giant was fearless. He focused on the Earth Dragon King and the Taiji Diagram above his head continued to morph ceaselessly.
In Zhu Yi’s supernatural awareness, clear lines of light appeared in the void. There, the clear lines of light crisscrossed, and in the chaos, a vast, powerful energy could be felt.
“It feels slightly forced, but it should be enough for now,” said Zhu Yi as his body twisted violently in mid-air. His enormous form appeared to turn into streams of light which disappeared immediately.
In Zhu Yi’s own supernatural awareness, he crossed through space through these streams of light. As he did that, the streams of light started to shift. Balls of unclear gas were started to destroy themselves one-by-one.
Then, all that the Earth Dragon King and the Tiangang Swordmaster saw was Zhu Yi’s vicious attack against the Earth Dragon King. His entire body started to shine with rays of light.
While the light was golden, a powerful energy could be felt from these rays of light. Other than the Higan Golden Bridge’s all-surpassing, all-leading aura, there were other distinctive auras that could be felt.
All these auras were similar to the power exuded by the Earth Dragon King, who was an Immemorial Celestial Dragon.
The change of time, turning illusion into reality, blazing hot dragon fire, corruption of the heavens… Every single aura and change in the elements could be sensed from Zhu Yi. They took the Earth Dragon King head-on.
While it was not yet perfect, this was not the full power an Immemorial Celestial Dragon. In terms of pure power, it was still not there yet. The Earth Dragon King still possessed an advantage, but the disparity between the two sides was greatly reduced.
The crux of the issue was that this sudden change stunned the Earth Dragon King.
In Zhu Yi’s supernatural awareness, the clear light increased in quantity. The balls of unclear gas were greatly reduced in number, and gradually, all that was shrouded by them were gradually revealed.
An Immemorial Celestial Dragon, of unknown length, appeared before him!
This Immemorial Celestial Dragon appeared to be in deep sleep and was oblivious to all that was taking place around him. He did not react the slightest to Zhu Yi.
He was still shrouded by unclear gas. In reality, Zhu Yi was retaliating furiously like a thunderstorm against the raging Earth Dragon King.
“The power of an Immemorial Celestial Dragon is too vast and the disparity in mastery between the Earth Dragon King and me is too great. However, I have learned much,” thought Zhu Yi with a calm expression. Other than the hazy light of the Celestial Dragon on him, he used his Yuan Shadow Avatar. This was the best way to fight against the Earth Dragon King.
The Tiangang Swordmaster looked at Zhu Yi in shock as a complicated gaze rose in his eyes. “What is he…”
However, he gathered his strength and used his Tiangang Ancient Sword as he attacked the Earth Dragon King.
The Earth Dragon King was both shocked and angered. He roared non-stop, but he could not do much against the combined attack from both Zhu Yi and the Tiangang Swordmaster.
With the Tiangang Swordmaster helping to alleviate his burden, Zhu Yi’s true self and his Shadow Avatar continued to swap positions. His many Shadow Avatars surrounded the Azure Sky Dragon King. While the Earth Dragon King wanted to help him, but under the attack from Zhu Yi and the Tiangang Swordmaster, Zhu Yi’s true self and his Shadow Avatar had already swapped positions and he moved away from the Earth Dragon King and approached the Azure Sky Dragon King.
The weak Azure Sky Dragon King felt a chill in his heart. Before him, the giant formed from Zhu Yi and the Higan Golden Bridge was already before him. The giant slapped down.
In the vast golden light, there was a light that resembled the glow of Celestial Dragons. The Azure Sky Dragon King found this ironic and ridiculous.
At this moment, while that light was incomplete and still full of deficiencies in many aspects, it was extremely familiar to the Azure Sky Dragon King.
As long as he recovered from his weak phase right now, he would be able to enter the Vipralopa Stage and become a true Celestial Dragon. However, the light that was coming at him right now was something that he would have possessed had he become a Celestial Dragon. As an Azure Dragon, his powers would be even more perfect and even more complete. It could even surpass that of other Immemorial Celestial Dragons.
Yet, at this moment, a human was smashing against his skull with this power!
In the last moment of the Azure Sky Dragon King’s life, he could not resist. All he could do was to watch Zhu Yi’s hands coming down onto him. His heart brimmed with ridicule and despondency.
The last sound he heard was the enraged but helpless roar of the Earth Dragon King.
The Azure Sky Dragon King was the leader of the Azure Dragons. Amongst the dragons in the Black Sea, he was just behind the Origins Dragon King, the Earth Dragon King, and the Shen Dragon King. With his powers, he was just a small step away from the Vipralopa Stage.
Even after he was struck by the Tiangang Swordmaster and survived, he had almost completed his Cardinal Tribulations. As long as he was able to recover from his last round, he would become an Immemorial Celestial Dragon. He would ascend to the Vipralopa Stage and become the fourth dragon to reach that level.
However, today, in void space, he was killed by the second disciple of Lin Feng!
The Hou Ning Dragon King watched this scene from far away. He felt a chill rising in his heart.
Earlier, in the battle against the Great Void Sect, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror appeared unstable and hence, they were pushed into a corner by the dragons and had to adopt a defensive position.
The group of powerful dragons was all confident as they broke through the Black Sea. Then, they were able to destroy the Great Qin Empire’s Immortal Dragon City and killed Shi Yu. They were almost capable of completely destroying the Immortal Dragon City, a sore spot for the dragons since the Antiquity Age.
Now, the Azure Dragon King, the Hou Ning Dragon King and the other dragons could not believe how much had the tables turned.
The Tiangang Swordmaster and Zhu Yi, who were trapped by the Earth Dragon King, broke out and the Azure Sky Dragon King, who was hurt by the Tiangang Swordmaster, thought that he could escape from the Black Sea. Who knew that his escape plan would be forcibly cut short by Zhu Yi, who then resisted the pressure exerted by the Earth Dragon King and slain the Azure Sky Dragon King?
When he recalled their victorious march out of the Black Sea, all the Hou Ning Dragon King could feel in his heart right now was bitterness.
Coupled with the Blazing Flames Dragon King, who too fell at the hands of Zhu Yi, the dragons took on heavy casualties in their escape from the Black Sea. This could be said to be their worst defeat since the last War of the Two Worlds, as well as their most consequential one. This made their hearts bleed.
What shocked the Hou Ning Dragon King, even more, was the fact that Zhu Yi’s powers increased even more. Without any forewarning, this was indeed shocking.
In terms of mastery, Zhu Yi was in the Immortal Soul First Level. After the loss of Lin Feng’s Holy Light of Creation, the Higan Golden Bridge only had a seven colored halos around it.
However, as the Yi Taoism Diagram spun above Zhu Yi’s head, an indescribable energy could be felt from it.
This sudden change cost the Azure Sky Dragon King his life.
Zhu Yi, Lin Feng’s second disciple, was always seen as the most powerful disciple under Lin Feng because he had the Higan Golden Bridge. At the same time, he was also the only disciple whom everyone thought had a chance of battling at the Vipralopa Stage.
However, there was a difference between being able to battle at the Vipralopa Stage and being able to kill someone as powerful as the Azure Sky Dragon King. These are two entirely separate matters.
At this moment, while the Tiangang Swordmaster was fighting alongside him, he was still dealing with the Earth Dragon King, a powerful demon who was much more powerful than the Tiangang Swordmaster.
After today’s battle, Zhu Yi’s name resounded throughout the entire Grand Celestial World. Not only was it because he was Lin Feng’s disciple, not only because he had the Higan Golden Bridge, but also because he was able to fully realize his potential to a shocking extent.
After Wang Lin, Zhu Yi too began to move towards the center of this huge stage.
While the Tiangang Swordmaster was still allied with Zhu Yi in their battle against the Earth Dragon King, he could barely find the right words to describe his emotions right now.
To him, if it was a simple one-on-one fight, it would not be hard to kill the Azure Sky Dragon King.
Furthermore, when Zhu Yi killed the Azure Sky Dragon King, he was already weakened from the blow delivered by the Tiangang Swordmaster. Furthermore, as he had just undergone the Cardinal Tribulations, he was unable to retaliate against Zhu Yi.
However, it was near impossible to kill the Azure Sky Dragon King as he called upon the powers of the Black Sea to escape and when he was under the protection of the Earth Dragon King.
The Tiangang Swordmaster realized that he had given up all hope of slaying the Azure Sky Dragon King when he started the escape plan.
Yet, everything that had just happened stunned him. He stared dazed at Zhu Yi and the Higan Golden Bridge as he croaked in his heart, “The Celestial Sect of Wonders…”
The Earth Dragon King too stared at Zhu Yi. His cold eyes betrayed no emotion other than a powerful killing intent.
However, a voice sounded from the side of his ear, “Earth, retreat.”
That was the voice of the Origins Dragon King. The Earth Dragon King frowned and said, “I have not yet been defeated! Today, despite my heavy injuries, I will kill him!”
The Origins Dragon King’s voice was deep and calm as he said, “I know what has happened to Azure Sky. Right now, I cannot leave the Black Sea. Lin Feng plans on leaving the Lingyuan Mountains. The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage will not do his best to stop him.”
“While he leaves for the recently reappeared Hades City, there’s a good chance he’ll come after you if you continue staying here.”
