The Shen Dragon King’s forehead sparkled with strange patterns as he drew the Black Sea’s power into the Void Battleground. Golden light glimmered all over his body, and he transformed into a golden beam before he pierced through the sky towards the Earth Dragon King.
Zhu Yi’s assault slammed onto his body and caused the golden beam to shudder in the sky to the point where it almost broke apart. Dragon scales flew through the sky and dragon blood splattered across void space and drifted downwards.
The Shen Dragon King took this direct hit from Zhu Yi and gritted his teeth as he arrived close to the Earth Dragon King and Shi Tianhao’s battle.
Shi Tianhao wasn’t afraid at all. His Yingyuan Body channeled the City in the Sky and the Two Elements of Creation Formation as he unleashed the power of Polar Reversal, converting pulsating life energy into a barrenness.
The Shen Dragon King didn’t attempt to fight against this. He took another hit from Shi Tianhao’s strike and broke through his barrier as he arrived next to the Earth Dragon King.
Zhu Yi and the Higan Golden Bridge pursued him from behind. His virtual entity integrated with the Higan Golden Bridge and transformed into a colossal giant as he reached out with his hands – and grabbed the Shen Dragon King’s tail!
The Earth Dragon King couldn’t be bothered with Shi Tianhao anymore as he slashed ferociously towards Shi Xingyun. Shi Xingyun’s soul merged with the dragon body beneath her, and the enormous dragon extended its talon and clashed violently with the Earth Dragon King.
Shi Xingyun was forced backwards. The Earth Dragon King wanted to chase her, but Shi Tianhao’s Huangshen Body raised the Crucible of the Divine Lands high into the sky and slammed it down onto his head.
The Earth Dragon King roared furiously as he tossed his head upwards and pressed against the Crucibble of the Divine Lands.
Shi Tianhao’s Twelve Divine Generals transformed into Twelve Men of Gold and landed upon the Crucible of the Divine Lands.
The Twelve Men of Gold was denser and thicker than even the City in the Sky. They seemed like they could pulverize the destiny of the world, and their powers were extremely compatible with that of the Crucible of the Divine Lands. Shi Tianhao’s might pressed down and the Earth Dragon King felt the weight on his head becoming heavier and heavier.
Just when the Earth Dragon King’s body stopped tunneling through the air, Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body channeled the Two Elements of Creation Formation and launched another assault at the Earth Dragon King. At the same time, a bedazzling beam of divine light shimmered between his Yingyuan Body’s eyebrows. This beam of light caused heaven and earth to tremble as it shattered void space all around it. It felt as if everything that this beam of divine light touched would approach their final destinations.
The Earth Dragon King was locked by the Crucible of the Divine Lands and the Twelve Men of Gold. He was preoccupied with resisting this pressuring might, and his protective layer of golden light was swept away by the Two Elements of Creation Formation and the City in the Sky. Even his scales and the runes that possessed defensive elements similar to the Bastille Black Dragon’s Bastille Black Curse fell into disarray.
Shi Tianhao’s Final Holy Light waved through void space and immediately sliced open the draconic clouds, before it opened a bloody gash on the Earth Dragon King’s body.
The Earth Dragon King roared furiously into the sky. Star after star rose up through the golden clouds and sparkled incessantly as the starlight and golden light integrated as one.
The Earth Dragon King’s enormous frame twisted and contorted hysterically in midair as he erupted with all his might and he pushed away the Crucible of the Divine Lands with his head. His bare tail swung forcefully and slammed against the Two Elements of Creation Formation and forced it away before his dragon tail exploded in another mist of blood.
His three remaining claws danced in the sky as he ripped open the space around him and blocked off Shi Tianhao’s subsequent attack.
The Earth Dragon King was infuriated beyond control, but he was a veteran in battle after all, and his senses were still incredibly sharp and perceptive. He transformed into golden light and flickered in the sky as he evaded a black-and-white dragon claw that was masked by layers of light.
That was Shi Xingyun lashing out once again. If the Earth Dragon King was caught by her claw, he would have been arrested in midair even if he used the Candle Dragon’s ability to manipulate space-time. In that case, he would be helpless against Shi Tianhao’s continuous attacks that were like a meteor shower.
The Earth Dragon King no longer had any hope to win this battle at this point. However, the seething rage and intense hatred in his heart erupted every time he looked at Shi Xingyun. His mind was already set – he would give his life to slay this entity that represented an extreme humiliation to the entire dragon race.
The Shen Dragon King suffered two direct hits to his body and was heavily wounded, but he forced his way out of Zhu Yi’s clutches and rushed before the Earth Dragon King as he lowered his voice and said, “Let’s go! The girl is using herself as bait, so that we will remain and fight to the death! She wants to team up with the Celestial Sect of Wonders and kill us right here and now!”
The Earth Dragon King shouted, “I know that! Even if they besiege me, I will swallow this bait and chew her up – she cannot remain on this world!”
The hatred and burning vengeance in his eyes suddenly became cold and murderous. “Even if the Leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders is here today, I will not give up. In the end, it’s just death! I have retreated twice before, and I can no longer swallow this shame and embarrassment. I will not back off this time – there is only a fight to the very end!”
The patterns on the Shen Dragon King’s forehead that drew upon the Black Sea’s power were completely unleashed at this moment. The inter-world passageways were fully opened, and rolling seawater poured out from inside before the mysterious rituals were initiated and slowly brought the Shen Dragon King’s body back into the Black Sea.
He watched the Earth Dragon King – his companion no longer bothered about Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao’s existence, and he was only fixated upon Shi Xingyun. “The Celestial Sect of Wonders is mighty, the Hades Tribe has returned to the Greater World, the situation can change at any time – we are having a harder time than we have ever encountered! We have to think about the future of our race!”
The pattern on his forehead flashed once more as he spoke. A streak of black light shot out and landed upon the Earth Dragon King’s body.
“You!” The Earth Dragon King’s body quivered before the same patterns appeared on his forehead.
These patterns displayed light projections and illusions as they communicated with the Black Sea. Immense power surged through the endless void space and came into the Void Sea, before they swept up the Earth Dragon King and began dragging him back into the Black Sea.
The Earth Dragon King roared in shock and anger as golden lights sparkled all over his body – he was actually resisting the Black Sea’s rituals!
Shi Tianhao launched another onslaught right at this moment, and he was a lot more speedy and ferocious this time.
Zhu Yi’s movement paused momentarily. The Yi Daoist Talisman shifted and transformed above his head as he thought to himself, “The Black Sea was contesting with the Supreme Heavenly Mirror and the Great Void Sect back then, so the rituals weren’t stable, but the rituals that are happening now are perfect and without loopholes.”
“However, we are in the Void Battleground after all. Space and time are incredibly mixed up, and even the power of the Black Sea cannot be entirely smooth. The ritual’s powers can never be as powerful as it can be if we were inside the Greater World.”
The brilliant lights in his eyes became clear and blinding as a streak of light flashed between his eyes. The mist gradually cleared away, and the giant formed by his virtual entity and the Higan Golden Bridge let go of the Shen Dragon King. The giant arrived next to the Earth Dragon King in the blink of an eye, before he punched onto the connecting link between the dragon’s body and the Black Sea’s portal.
The Earth Dragon King was already resisting the Black Sea’s portal, and this punch caused the link to become even more unstable. The Earth Dragon King’s frame seemed like it was going to return into the Void Battleground once again.
The Earth Dragon King completely disregarded what was going on. He roared desperately and fired large amounts of golden flames and lightning that intertwined with each other from his mouth directly at Shi Xingyun.
Shi Xingyun didn’t take the initiative in battle anymore. Instead, she retreated into the distance and dodged again and again.
Shi Tianhao’s Huangshen Body and the Twelve Divine Generals lifted the Crucible of the Divine Lands into the sky. He pointed the crucible’s opening at the Earth Dragon King, and the large greenish-black crucible that appeared like a world of destiny consumed the dragon flames and lightning that surged out of the Earth Dragon King’s mouth.
His Yingyuan Body channeled the Two Elements of Creation Formation, and the magic formation rotated quickly in the sky. The City in the Sky, which was at the center of the magic formation, gradually transformed into a city of light. The city of light drew upon the streaks of spiritual energy that were already infusing into it, and slowly transformed once more and into a sparkling pagoda.
The pagoda didn’t seem like it was separated into levels and was just one entire structure. It was hard to describe its shape, but it was erect in midair and reigned supreme over the world, and it appeared as if it could capture the stars and pluck the moon from the sky.
Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body used spell after spell. Vivacious life energy was mixed with Chaos and bleariness, and the true meaning of barrenness and the primal world as they were infused into the pagoda, causing the pagoda to flow with primal energy.
Shi Tianaho carried the Two Elements of Creation Formation and this pagoda as he followed closely behind Zhu Yi. He descended onto the link connecting the Black Sea’s portal and the Earth Dragon King’s body, and immediately severed the Earth Dragon King’s connection with the Black Sea and caused him to return into the Void Battleground.
However, the Black Sea’s projection shuddered right at this moment and golden light mist permeated void space. It suddenly pierced through the Black Sea’s boundaries and surged into the Void Battleground!
In the next moment, Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao saw a colossal dragon claw that reached out from the light mist as it riled up wave after wave of the Black Sea’s water, before it grabbed the Earth Dragon King at once.
“The Origins Celestial Dragon!” Everybody on scene hollered in unison.
The Earth Dragon King himself howled in surprise as well.
Nothing could be heard in response from the golden light mist. Waves of golden seawater that sparkled with black radiance extended from the enormous dragon claw and enveloped the Earth Dragon King before it began to withdraw.
The Black Sea’s water flowed into the Void Sea, and released an earth-shattering force that felt like two worlds were colliding together. The space inside the Void Battleground immediately felt like it was going to fall apart.
Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao continued staring at the Black Sea’s oceanwater and the giant dragon claw as their brows furrowed together.
Right at this moment, inside the Greater World’s Divine Lands, inside the Kunlun Mountain Range, inside Mount Yujing’s Heavenly Cosmic Ray World, Lin Feng’s original body sat calmly opposite Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar and they watched each other in silence.
Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar suddenly said, “Master?”
Lin Feng nodded his head and tapped Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar on the forehead. Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar closed his eyes, and his body began to quiver subtly.
The Great Sun Avatar seemed to exude with faint golden lines in the void that reached far and deep into the horizon. They surged through space and time and connected with Zhu Yi’s original body inside the Void Battleground.
Lin Feng tilted his head slightly and called out, “Xuan Li.”
Xuan Li didn’t say a word behind him and stepped out of the Heavenly Cosmic Ray World. Xuan Li stood inside the void and raised her right hand as brilliant lights orbited her palm and condensed into a longsword that swung down heavily.
A fearsome sword radiance that was all Chaos and murkiness followed the faint lines that connected Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar as his original body. It went all the way, and into the Void Battleground!
The Void Battleground cracked open with scars and gashes as this sword radiance appeared, and it felt like the apocalypse was here.
The Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King’s expressions changed at the same time. The Origins Celestial Dragon inside the Black Sea grunted coldly as the golden seawater that flickered with black light on his claw suddenly had its colors reversed. Black seawater began to sparkle with golden light, and he swiftly grabbed the Earth Dragon King and Shen Dragon King before he quickly retreated into the Black Sea.
The sword radiance had already slashed down by then. Golden dragon blood splurged out as the black seawater that flashed with golden light was broken down. A gaping wound appeared on the Origins Celestial Dragon’s claw, and even the Earth Dragon King in his hands was severely injured as well and his entire body exploded with wound after bloody wound.
An agonizing howl resonated deep within the Black Sea, and the dragon claw didn’t dare to remain any longer as it quickly withdrew into the Black Sea, and the portal vanished immediately afterwards.
“You are lucky – we are inside the Void Battleground, and my original body is in the Greater World.” Lin Feng’s voice pierced through void space and into the Black Sea as it echoed through the heavens. “I have said before that I will cut you down if you come out of the Black Sea – you can’t show even a single claw.”
