Chapter 1836: Piercing the Heart (Part 1)
Shock, fear, coldness... rapidly spread and swelled in the hearts of all Northern Domain Xuan Adepts.
The core power of the Northern Domain had once swept through the Eastern and Southern Divine Realms, especially the Yan Ancestors and Fan Ancestors, who were existences surpassing most Divine Emperors.
Everyone attacked together, facing only one Long Bai... yet he directly broke free from suppression. The powerful Primordial Dragon Emperor collapsed in an instant. A group of Moon Devourers and Burning Moon Divine Envoys were completely routed with a single strike, and there was even a Moon Devourer who was directly crushed with almost no resistance.
This was a scene and result they absolutely could not have imagined before.
No matter how strong Long Huang... how could he be this strong!
Above the dark sky, the dragon claw raised again, fiercely pressing down toward the location of the Yanmo Realm.
In that instant, all Yanmo and Yan Ghosts felt, in extreme terror... it was an unprecedented weight, completely beyond imagination and cognition, as if the nine layers of heaven were falling upon them.
“Fall back!”
No one released any power of defense or counterattack; from Yanmo to Yan Ghosts, their first thought was all to flee.
At this moment, another earth-shaking roar came, a huge azure wolf shadow pounced from the air, beneath the wolf shadow was Cai Zhi's petite figure with black qi rising, the Celestial Wolf Demonic Sword in her hand heavily struck Long Bai's claw.
Boom!!
The Canglan Divine Realm suffered disaster again, the azure wolf shadow twisted and shattered, Cai Zhi's figure flew far away, flying over thirty miles before barely stopping, and Long Bai's claw was also heavily knocked away. Amid the explosions, the many Yanmo and Yan Ghosts scattered and flew, but fortunately no one was severely injured.
High above, Chi Wuyue's eyes were tightly fixed.
From Long Bai's body, she saw something far more terrifying than his dragon body.
Dragon God Soul!
The strength of the Dragon God Soul lies in intimidation. A sufficiently powerful Dragon God Soul can instantly shatter a person's fighting spirit, even their will, causing them to tremble in fear, even want to kneel and submit, making it difficult to gather fighting spirit and power.
Strong as the Yan Ancestors and Fan Ancestors, they were clearly intimidated, allowing Long Bai to break free from suppression.
The Moon Devourers and Yanmo were even more devoid of ferocity, single-mindedly fleeing.
The worst was the Primordial Dragon Emperor... as a member of the Dragon Clan, it was undoubtedly the most directly intimidated. In the previous collision, it hadn't even released three-tenths of its power before suffering a complete defeat.
This is the terror of the Dragon God Soul! When fighting with the Crimson Destruction Dragon God, she had already deeply experienced it... at that time, the Crimson Destruction Dragon God, even with its Dragon Soul being partially devoured by her, still heavily injured her.
This also told her that when Yun Che was in the Nanming Divine Realm, easily suppressing and slaughtering the Ashes Dragon God was how remarkable... even a terrifying deed.
This might also be the biggest reason why he had never feared the Dragon God Realm.
In those days outside Lan Ji Star, Yun Che, with his Divine King Realm cultivation, used the Dragon God Soul to forcibly shatter a group of Divine Emperors, thus managing to escape.
Yun Che's Dragon God Soul came from the primordial source soul of the Primordial Azure Dragon, its level could be said to be extremely high, definitely above Long Bai's. But his own soul power was too weak; this level of intimidation could not last long at all.
As for Long Bai, his Dragon God Soul could not compare to Yun Che's, but it absolutely suppressed all beings in the world.
Moreover, his soul power was immensely vast, like a boundless ocean; this overbearing and unmatched intimidation was hard to estimate how long it could last.
Chi Wuyue's eyes gradually became deep and dark, until they were terrifyingly dark.
If Shui Meiyin were here, she could use the Stainless Divine Soul to dispel this intimidation.
If Yun Che were here, he might even be able to counter it in a short time.
But unfortunately... neither of them were here.
And although her Nirvana Wheel Demon Soul was at a very high level, its strength lay in devouring and control.
In this situation... she could only resort to level suppression to forcibly dispel it.
Chi Wuyue's dark, charming eyes slowly closed, then suddenly opened.
In her pupils, magnified to the extreme, reflected a twisted demon shadow.
And this demon shadow, at the same time, appeared eerily in everyone's pupils and souls.
In their souls, they also heard Chi Wuyue's hoarse and distant low chant:
“In this world, only the Demon Lord is worthy of your reverence. As for Long Bai, he is merely a dragon that the Demon Lord must kill!”
Chi Wuyue's voice, each word like a demon bell shaking souls, scattered the fear in their pupils... reigniting their beliefs and fighting spirit.
“Shh... ah!”
Yan Yi let out a sharp strange cry, then suddenly pounced like a mad evil ghost toward the huge dragon body ahead.
In the past few breaths, he had actually felt a trace of fear, and the aura suppressing Long Bai had loosened... to him, this was an utter disgrace among disgraces!
At this moment, Chi Wuyue's soul voice sounded in everyone's ears:
“Qianye, Guzhu, Cang Shitian, you all suppress with full force!”
“Yan Yi, Yan San, Yan Emperor, Yan Wu, strong attack!”
“Cai Zhi, have the Primordial Dragon Clan retreat!”
“All Demonesses prepare to seal!”
“Everyone else, all retreat, do not engage!”
Long commands, but transmitted in an instant under soul voice.
Everyone attacking together would naturally be more likely to kill Long Bai before the barrier breaks.
But Long Bai's previous intention was extremely obvious: after breaking free from suppression, he fiercely attacked the Moon Devourers and Yanmo... Chi Wuyue quickly weighed the options and finally chose to try to preserve the Yanmo level, only letting the tenth-rank Divine Lords forcefully kill Long Bai.
Yan Yi and Yan San pounced straight up, but as soon as they approached, the huge dragon tail swept across.
Long Huang's power and the power of the two Yan Ancestors collided head-on once again... the result was exactly the same, Yan Yi and Yan San were swept far away, but this time, it was the two enraged Yan Ancestors who were sent flying.
“So you’re the only one who can transform, huh!” Yan Yi's gaze was ferocious, teeth grinding: “I can too!”
“Shh ah!!”
Yan Yi and Yan San simultaneously let out an extremely piercing shriek. The skin on their backs burst open, revealing terrifying bare bones. Large bursts of black mist exploded from within, then condensed behind them into a demon shadow a hundred zhang tall, almost solid!
The appearance of this demon shadow was extremely similar to the ancient Yanmo recorded in the Northern Divine Realm.
“I’ll tear you apart!!”
Their roars became several times more shrill and ferocious, and the ghost claws they cast down also carried the annihilation power from the Yanmo Abyss.
Crunch!!
The ghost claws of the two Yan Ancestors simultaneously struck the dragon body, but this time it caused not an explosion of power, but a tearing sound so piercing it nearly shattered hearts... because it was the sound of Long Huang's body being torn.
The two Yanmo ghost claws sank deep into the dragon body, and as they fiercely moved, they tore out several spurting blood arrows.
Although, compared to Long Bai's ten-thousand-zhang dragon body, this was merely insignificant light injury... but, when was the last time Long Huang's blood spilled into the air? Even Long Bai himself could not remember.
Because in this world, even the power that could make him bleed was far too rare.
“Long Huang!”
Outside the barrier, all the Dragon Gods were shocked, and the force striking the barrier increased dramatically. The Canglan Barrier endured countless depressions and tremors every instant.
Long Bai's counterattack came in an instant. With the void cracking, his dragon tail, carrying that layer of eerie white light, heavily struck Yan Yi and Yan San from a distance, bending their withered bodies violently, causing them to tumble and fly sideways with the Yanmo shadow.
But immediately, their tumbling black shadows suddenly plummeted, with even greater resentment and peak power than before, pouncing again toward Long Huang.
At the same time, the power of Qianye Wugu, Qianye Bingzhu, and Guzhu also attacked from above, like three world-shaking heavenly bells, pressing directly down on Long Bai.
Even though Long Huang was unparalleled in the world, while dealing with the two Yan Ancestors, he could hardly withstand such heavy pressure. The dragon body plummeted a thousand zhang in the air, then suddenly the dragon eyes glared angrily, and a dragon roar shook the heavens.
Roar————
The power pressing on him suddenly decreased sharply. Long Bai's body soared up, and the world-destroying storm he stirred up violently sent the three flying. Guzhu's face turned pale, with blood seeping from his mouth.
But, with Chi Wuyue's Nirvana Wheel Demon Soul constantly supporting and dispelling, the soul collapse of Qianye and the others only lasted a few brief moments before their power quickly recovered. And at this time, Qianye Ying'er's Oracle and Cai Zhi's Celestial Wolf Demonic Sword also broke through the air and descended.
The power of the five people layered and annihilated dimensions, heavily striking Long Bai's head.
Below, Yan Yi and Yan San were attacking crazily, while Yan Tianxiao and Yan Wu also attacked the dragon's belly with abyssal black qi.
Meanwhile, Cang Shitian let out a strange cry, soared up, and the water-like blue light in his hand transformed into countless azure sharp arrows, shooting toward the angrily glaring dragon eyes.
Boom!!
Hum——
Splash——
Crunch!!!!!
Long Huang, Yan Ancestor, Fan Ancestor, Yan Emperor, Demon Empress, Shitian Divine Emperor...
This was a vicious battle that mortals could never witness, for any wisp of aftershock could easily destroy a star.
Every instant shook heaven and earth; every moment was the collapse of endless dimensions.
The Northern Domain Xuan Adepts within the Canglan Divine Realm were repeatedly sent flying, pushed back, and pushed back again... in the blink of an eye, they were hundreds of miles away.
They stared blankly... as powerful Divine Lords, what was presented before them was a battle they were unqualified to participate in.
Outside the barrier, a large number of Western Domain Xuan Adepts were also stunned, staring wide-eyed, forgetting to attack the Canglan Barrier.
As the lords of all beings, the Dragon Clan also cultivated profound arts and skills. But the stronger the dragon, the less they used profound arts and skills.
And Long Huang had almost forgotten those techniques once engraved in his memory.
Because when his body and soul had reached the pinnacle of the world, profound arts and skills had become cumbersome burdens.
His bloodline, his body, his power, his soul were the strongest profound arts in this world, the most unmatched divine might.
No matter how strong Long Bai was, he could not single-handedly resist all the core powers of the Northern Domain demon race.
He was increasingly suppressed, his body bombarded by Fan Emperor Divine Power, torn piece by piece by Yan Yi and Yan San... but his dragon qi showed no weakness or disorder, and his counterattacks were extremely violent.
That terrifyingly unmatched Long Huang body was displayed fully in this battle. Though completely suppressed, it showed no sign of defeat for a long time.
Outside the barrier, Long Si gave a heavy sigh and said: “Whether dragon body or dragon soul, both are far above us. Especially the dragon body, to some extent, may have surpassed the 'boundary'. The title of strongest Dragon Emperor, he deserves it.”
“Such a dragon soul, yet balanced by that demon empress.” Long Yi raised his eyes, looking at the black shadow high above: “It seems that in the years we slept, quite a few freaks have risen.”
“It's time to act.” Long Er said.
Boom————
Another loud bang that shook everyone deaf. With a burst of terrifying dragon qi from Long Bai's body, Yan Emperor, Qianye, and the others were all blasted away.
At this moment, Long Bai was covered in wounds, but the deepest wound was only a few feet, with no dragon bone visible.
His dragon body suddenly turned, and the huge dragon claw smashed directly toward Yan Wu, who had the weakest aura.
At this moment, a black light shot up like a dark meteor. It was Yan Tianxiao. He was about to attack, but the dragon claw in the air suddenly turned and pressed down instead.
Yan Tianxiao's pupils contracted. He was heavily struck by the dragon claw. A terrifying dragon qi exploded through his chest, breaking out through his back with blood.
Yan Tianxiao's face twisted, his teeth nearly shattering. In his ferocity, he didn't divert even a shred of power to suppress his injury; instead, he concentrated all his Yanmo power into his hands and fiercely smashed it into the dragon claw before him.
Crack!!
A sound like the collapse of ten thousand mountains. Long Huang's claw was forcibly bent. Yan Tianxiao flew through the air, spilling blood, and heavily crashed to the ground.
“King Father!!”
Yan Wu let out a mournful cry, greatly shocked, and rushed over in panic.
Yan Tianxiao rolled on the ground, quickly tapping his chest with his fingers to seal the wound. He looked up and saw that Yan Wu was rushing toward him. He immediately slapped out, sending a dark air current to roll her far away, while angrily cursing: “Why do you care about me! Go!”
