'Me? Livestock? A meal for the gods?' That was an insult Black Flood had never heard before."How dare you, Greenshade! I am the strongest being on Earth. I am the true dragon! You are but a Sovereign! You are nothing!" Then he roared, and his aura spilled. Jonah, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird were wobbling.The power of a true dragon was more than they could imagine. "Feel my authority, Greenshade! You cannot stop me!" Black Flood was hovering in the air, stirring up layers of black flames. He was threatening to rip the world apart."Your authority is nothing! You are but a flood dragon! Even if you are a divine dragon, anything that is an enemy of Faeast will die! Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual! Dragonmaster! Appear before me, true dragon!"Nox activated his spell and summoned nine golden dragons into existence. Every golden dragon was bigger than the flood dragon, and all had golden scales and five talons. There were the true dragons of Faeast.Legends claimed that any Sovere
"That's right! This is dragon tattoo, and the power of dragons can kill even immortals. Gods are nothing to me! Let's see how you deal with this, Greenshade!"The dragon tattoo was gathered, and a black ball about a thousand feet big appeared. Like a black hole, it started devouring everything around it. Jonah couldn't imagine how powerful it would be if its full power was unleashed. No one in the Mortal World could stop this."Interesting. You are just a flood dragon. In ancient times, you could only rule a single well." Nox sneered."Shut it! You talk big, but I'm enough to handle you!" Black Flood wanted Nox to bow, but since that didn't work, he lost his patience and decided to blast his spell off. "Let's see how you like this!"Black Flood shoved the black ball in Nox's direction. The mountain above was starting to tremble, and debris was falling as if the world was crumbling. The black ball was threatening to tear the space around it apart. It left gashes in the air wherever
White Tiger came as fast as he could after killing the monks, but he was one step too late. His lord was already devoured, and all he could see was Black Tortoise. "Dammit! You bastards!" He went berserk and activated his sacred beast essence. Though his enemy was a flood dragon, he still pounced at it."Hm?" Black Flood looked at him, and White Tiger was already slamming his fist into the dragon energy. Though it didn't hurt Black Flood or his dragon energy, he was still surprised. Black Flood tied White Tiger up with his energy and asked, "So you're White Tiger? You work for Greenshade?""That's me, you little bastard! I'll kill you! You killed my lord!" White Tiger struggled and almost broke free a few times.He said, "Interesting. I don't know how you did it, but you managed to summon your sacred beast essence even under my authority's influence. Guess I'll have to take a closer look. I have a sparring partner for you. Why don't you play with him for a while?" Black Flood smiled
However, he could easily overpower that technique, so it would be useless against him. The only thing left was Nox's Eight Techniques. They were good enough to make any regular cultivator an Emperor if they could have full mastery over any single technique.However, he was a dragon. Even Emperors were insects in his eyes. Only Flawless Pinnacle Legend Realms could fight him, but not even they had a chance of defeating him. Dragons were no ordinary beings. They were divine beings from the High Heavens.Black Flood had cultivated for a thousand years, and thanks to his great fortune, he became a flood dragon. Though he was also a Flawless Pinnacle Legend Realm, there was a big gap of power between gods and humans.Black Flood was unafraid of any mortal cultivators. Not even a hundred Flawless Pinnacle Legend Realms could take him down. To his shock, however, the Eight Techniques were Saintly Techniques now."Shit, the Mousses didn't tell me everything? If he does know Saintly Techniq
Black Flood couldn't understand how a mortal Sovereign could use the power of the world. "Pinnacle of spells? That's bullshit! I am a god! A dragon! Regular gods are nothing to me! I am your nation's sacred beast!" Flood Dragon roared and summoned the black flames underneath.The flames roared and ran around, drowning out the stone hall and turning it into a sea of flames."You guys get back out there. I need you to set up a formation." Nox pushed the trio back to the surface. Black Flood didn't care about the small fries. He only wanted to kill Nox. "Die, Greenshade!"The sea of black flames ate up Nox, and the dragon energy pushed them down. The gravity of the battlefield rose and sucked Nox deeper and deeper. Black Flood kept an eye on Nox's aura, and it grew weaker and weaker. When it was nothing but a flicker of fire, he heaved a sigh of relief."You did this to yourself, Greenshade. You should never have challenged a dragon! I am law itself! Mortals should never have challeng
"You are as powerful as they say, Nine-State Lord. You are a Sovereign, and now you control its dragon energy. I see Faeast will rise once more." This man was one from a foreign country. He looked… alluring, to say the least. His eyes were as blue as sapphires. Any regular human would fall for his captivating gaze.Nox could sense the power coming from his eyes just from a single look. "I see you're the mastermind. What good will it bring you working with the Mousses? You wish to rule Faeast as well?" Nox said coldly.Goldenwheel looked at him scornfully and sneered. "You're not big enough to know the truth."Nox was flummoxed. 'Not big enough?' He sneered."You're the first one to say that to my face. You don't get to act high and mighty when you're confused about your own identity," Nox retorted sharply, and Goldenwheel's facade broke."How dare you! That's an insult!""Shut the fuck up. Who do you think you are? You should feel honored that I'm even talking to you."Goldenwhe
The trio on the surface saw the mountain crumble, and they saw White Tiger clinging on to life. The one who beat him up was one of the Four Great Generals, Azure Dragon. White Tiger crashed into the ruins. Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise wanted to help him, but they were hurt by the residual impact."Shit. That level of power is unbelievable." Jonah tried to shield the duo, but he was spewing blood as well. " You guys stay here. This guy's stronger than Black Flood. We cannot win. He might as well be undefeatable." He tried his best to stop the duo from jumping into danger.Then, Goldenwheel appeared. His silhouette was in the skies above, and blinding light shone all around him, stronger than even the light of the sun itself. His aura alone trumped everything. Not even the stars could outshine him.'What kind of power is that?' Not even a Mystian guy like Jonah had seen someone like that."That's the famous Goldenwheel. A cultivator who's lived for a thousand years. If he was in
"Black Flood's still around. It's three against one. The lord has a lot of pressure on his shoulders. I'm not sure if we can handle Azure Dragon even if we take him on together," said Vermilion Bird. She didn't even have any confidence before asking Jonah.Azure Dragon was the strongest General, and he used to be about forty percent of Nox's power level. Him alone could wipe the floor with the other three Generals. He had also grown stronger now. White Tiger was out of commission. Black Tortoise, Vermilion Bird, and Jonah were all hurt.Even in their prime, they weren't sure they could take down Azure Dragon. Now, if they even tried to get near him, they would be killed."We should get out of their way. The lord can take them on alone. Winning isn't our goal here. All we have to do is get out alive," said Jonah. It was already a big ask, getting out alive. He wouldn't try to wish for anything else."You think you can get out alive? That'd be a waste of my setup. If I let Greenshade
That only annoyed the man further. "The lord is not as weak as you think. If he's willing to pay the price, he can get through this ordeal, even if it's the old him. But I do not blame you. Your level's too low, and you've not seen much of the world. Your talent leaves much to be desired."You only got this far, thanks to the lord. If you'd cultivated both Yin and Yang otherwise, you'd be dead by now. You haven't seen the limits of this world, so you know nothing about true strength. You have a lot to learn."Now that you have woken me up from my slumber, it's too late to turn back. I'll handle Goldenwheel. My avatar only has ten percent of my true power, but it's enough to take him down."The man brought the burning Kirtin and charged at Goldenwheel. Goldenwheel was already prepared to face this threat, but when he saw the incoming Kirin and sensed the person's aura, he knew that this man was far more powerful than he imagined.The spells Goldenwheel set up didn't even stop the ma
If Goldenwheel's guess was right, the fusion technique would burn up all of the Great Generals' life essence. Goldenwheel wanted to kill one of the Generals, but he had to ditch his plan because the formation came first."Milord, Goldenwheel's here. I think I can stop him for a bit if I burn my soul." Jonah blocked the Dragon Vein's entrance. He thought Goldenwheel must be exhausted at this point. If he burned his soul, he could stop Goldenwheel for a bit."You're no match for him. Goldenwheel's powerful. I'll handle this." Nox turned into a dragon. He would stop Goldenwheel himself.The Great Generals exchanged a look. They would not let Goldenwheel get into the Dragon's Vein. "Perhaps this is why we were reunited." The quartet activated their bloodlines, and when they merged, a bizarre rune appeared.This rune was created by a powerful person, and it was a technique beyond the Mortal World. The Generals extended their hands, and the moment they touched the rune, flames licked th
The destructive power unleashed by the Four Great Generals charged toward Goldenwheel. Jonah was still trapped in the formation, and he might be collateral damage if he couldn't get out of the way. There was no hiding from this spell.Black Flood could go in and out of the formation however he wanted. He noticed Jonah trying to find a way out, and he sneered. "You made the wrong choice, Jonah. You shouldn't have submitted to Greenshade. Now, you're doomed." He laughed out loud.A wave of white-hot Immortal energy pierced the formation and burned Black Flood up. Though weakened by the formation, Black Flood still ran around screaming in pain."Dragon's Vein, now. I'll keep you safe," Nox said telepathically.Jonah shed tears of joy and went into the Dragon's Vein. Not a moment too soon, either. The sacred beasts' attack swept through the battlefield. Jonah noticed the Dragon's Vein creating a wave of white Immortal energy to block the attack.He knew this defensive technique took a
The swords forced Goldenwheel to burn five hundred years of his lifespan, but eventually he managed to fend them off. He spewed blood, but he failed to destroy the swords and injure Azure Dragon.The swords were made of the same material that was used to create the Nine-State Crucible. Goldenwheel did not have the power to break something like that. Azure Dragon cultivated the path of humanity, so there was no backlash from his spells. Even so, Azure Dragon didn't let his guard down.Not many could fend off thirteen swords, but Goldenwheel did it. Azure Dragon was already a Pinnacle Legend Realm, but he couldn't take Goldenwheel down."Anything else, Azure Dragon? I know you haven't used your final technique yet. What's it called? Heavenly Mandate, yes. Use that, and you either die or get seriously wounded." Goldenwheel looked at Azure Dragon darkly. He was ready to take Azure Dragon's final attack.Azure Dragon was going to do it and at least have Goldenwheel burn more of his life
"I see." Jonah nodded. He understood what they were talking about, but why'd they call him ignorant? Were they looking down on him?With the swords in hand, Azure Dragon's aura changed. A layer of gold covered his soul."Shit." Goldenwheel's heart sank. Taking down Azure Dragon might cost him dearly now."Die, Goldenwheel!" Azure Dragon brushed his fingers against the sword container, and the first sword appeared. "Kill him, first sword!"The sword shot off at Goldenwheel like a golden comet. Goldenwheel easily blocked it, but he'd felt this item's power before. Even if he managed to block the first sword, he didn't look happy."Second sword, kill him!" Another sword appeared. Goldenwheel couldn't stop it with his body alone this time, so he had to use his power. Then, the third, fourth, and fifth sword attacked at the same time.Goldenwheel failed to react in time, and the swords injured him. One of his arms was sliced off. "Dammit, break already!" Goldenwheel summoned his power
Goldenwheel was confident about taking down Azure Dragon. Azure Dragon's level was lower than Nox, and his goal was to kill him. Killing someone was easier than controlling their soul."You think you can kill me? Fourteen Styles of the Faeast Lord! I summon thee, sword!" Though suppressed, Azure Dragon used his essence as guidance and summoned his artefact from dozens of miles away. The artefact tore through the skies like a black comet and pierced the formation before stopping in front of Azure Dragon.Goldenwheel saw the item, and he froze. Obviously, this thing posed a great threat toward him. "That thing isn't broken yet? What are the Mousses doing? I thought they sealed it up forever!" said Goldenwheel angrily.Everything was going wrong thanks to the Mousses. If they did their intel job perfectly, he wouldn't have been in this mess."Fourteen Swords of the Faeast Lord." The other Generals looked at the item with worship in their eyes. Even Jonah's eyes went wide."So the leg
"If I lose, all I lose is my life. I'll rip that ghoul apart, milord." He wasn't sure if he could succeed, but beating up Goldenwheel would be cathartic for him. Azure Dragon's true soul left the mountain.The fact that Azure Dragon called the enemy a ghoul made Nox smile. They were friends, alright. They had the same opinion about the same guy.When Goldenwheel saw Azure Dragon's true soul coming out of the mountain, he lost his cool. He, the Mousses, and some Mystian powerhouses set up a trap for Azure Dragon. Azure Dragon wasn't even a Supreme back then, and even then he could kill a few Mystian powerhouses.Goldenwheel paid a steep price to control his soul. Though it was a hard task, they had all the advantage, and their power was greater than Azure Dragon's. Even so, they still paid a steep price.Black Flood was around during the capture of Azure Dragon, but he hadn't achieved dragonhood. He was still a winged centipede. He could still remember how Azure Dragon fought back.
The Masters leaped into the fray. Two were Pinnacle Legend Realms, while the other was an Emperor, and they easily destroyed the strongest enemy units. Not even the enemy cultivators could fend them off, let alone the regular soldiers.Any technique the Masters used could kill a thousand soldiers at once. With a hundred thousand units fighting by their side, this battle's outcome was obvious. Atlas charged all the way into the southwest nation's encampment and fought three nation leaders himself.At the same time, new development was happening on Mount Prison. As Sealmaster suspected, Goldenwheel's sudden surge in power was a counterattack made in desperation. His spell, however, was stopped by Nox's elephant. Nine merged into one. In the Dragon's Vein underground, Nox turned into a dragon, and the power of Yang energy filled up the Yin Dragon's Vein.These energies were supposed to be at odds, yet they merged as one. Goldenwheel knew this was not good, and he quickly attacked."Az
"The sword of Faeast slays evil and demons! You are now facing the elites of Faeast, so surrender! That is the only way to survive, or we shall slay you where you stand!" Sealmater's voice boomed.The voice alone was terrifying. The southwest nations were all sacred. Even their strongest were sweating and shivering from fear. Just when they were thinking about what they should do, a wave of violent energy shot out of Mount Prison and traveled into the skies, covering the sun itself. The ground was enveloped in shadows.Thirteen suns appeared and covered the stars overhead and shone bright red. The southwest nations' troops had their morale boosted. "Goldenwheel's avatar! You're done for, Faeast scum!"Under their kings' orders, the enemies lunged at the soldiers of Faeast like mad dogs. Atlas didn't care what avatar was there. Faeast was the face of true justice. He charged into enemy ranks all by himself, and none of his soldiers backed off. They followed through.The two hundred
