Chapter 647: Just How Many Terrifying Creatures Does the Expert Keep?
The Big Lord Demon — who was standing behind the monks — was on the verge of having a breakdown. ‘No way this is happening. I’ve only been here for a while and have to go through all this?’ He thought. He was hoping to live out the rest of his life peacefully amongst the monk. He did not wish to go back to a life where he had to be on his toes all the time. It seemed like he was proven wrong once again. Buddhism could not protect him. Whichever way he swung — demonism or buddhism — trouble would always find him.
The Heavenly Dragon Chief swallowed the last of the meat and turned his cold eyes toward the monks. "You will all pay for making cured meat out of the Heavenly Dragon Race. Tell us where are the rest of you now!" He had two goals in mind — first to find the Chaos Heavenly Dragon girl and second to get his hands on the Heritage found in the ancient battleground that was passed on by their ancestors. It was obvious to him none of the monks was who he was looking for so he was sure there was a mastermind behind them all.
"I’m afraid I can’t tell you that," Jiechi said calmly with his palms pressed together. "You will all, too, pay for destroying my temples and killing my followers."
"Us, pay?" The Heavenly Dragon Chief said with a cold laugh, "We’re here to avenge the deaths of our comrades. You should be the one who pays."
"That’s right. Do you think you can get away with killing our comrades?"
"Kill all the monks to show them the Dragon Race is not to be crossed!"
"Tell us now who killed our comrades or else we’ll kill you!" The other Dragons said. Their murderous aura caused the clouds to darkened and gathered in an ominous way.
"Their fates were sealed long ago and there will only be death for the rest of you should you be determined to investigate further," said Jiechi. He was, of course, referring to the expert. The expert’s will was akin to heaven’s will. These Dragons had no right to question his will.
Jiechi’s words were meant as a warning but to the Dragon’s ears they sounded like a challenge.
"He must be joking! He’s looking down on us, isn’t he?"
"How dare you bald-headed donkeys speak like that! It just makes me want to investigate more. Let’s see if we’ll really meet our ends!"
"Come at me! Let’s see if you have the power to back you up!" The Heavenly Chief Dragon said with narrowed eyes. He then raised his hand and endless lightning in the form of a dragon claw struck down from the dark clouds above them. Their power crackled throughout the air while brightening the night sky like the sun. The electric current erupted here and there in the thin air with enough power to tear apart the heaven. All of them could feel the numbness tingling through their body. It felt as if there was a giant lightning dragon in the sky, rushing with his claws out toward the monks.
The monks were all looking at the sky with a grave expression on their faces. They quickly activated their buddha light and moved to their position to create a battle formation.
"Jianglong in position."
"Fuhu in position."
"One hundred and eighty Arhat in position."
"Apocalypse Sky Dragon!"
A giant golden dragon created from the thick buddha light appeared in the sky with a ferocious roar. Wrapped in endless power, it began to confront the dragon claw. The golden dragon was covered in a rainbow like sheen with its scales shining brilliantly and there was magnificent vitality flowing from its eyes. It seemed to have come to life and was more powerful than the average Dragon.
"Now this is interesting. It seems like they possess similar supernormal knowledge as us Dragons," said the Heavenly Dragon Chief with an eyebrow raised. "But a fake dragon would never compare to a real dragon!" The lightning dragon claw tore apart the golden dragon with a powerful force and had it completely suppressed.
The golden dragon bowed his head, and the aftershock of the terrifying lightning fell around all the surrounding hills, causing this Spiritual Mountain range to be razed to the ground while the sky still burned with the lightning. The Buddhist monks were repelled by the force and vomited blood. They all sustained heavy injuries.
"Weak! You all are too weak!"
"Hahaha, look at them all on their last breath."
"I had higher hopes for the Area of the Gods’ power than this," said the Dragons, hurling one insult after another.
Only the Heavenly Dragon Chief knew how much effort it took to take down the Apocalypse Sky Dragon. It only looked easy to the other Dragons because he was the strongest of them all. As chief of the Heavenly Dragon, he could be likened to a super powerhouse. His ability had far surpassed those of the monks. The fact that they could withstand an attack of his with such a big gap in ability meant that the golden dragon was not as weak as what the others thought.
"I was right. You all do not possess the power to kill the Dragons. So why don’t you quickly tell me who killed them?" The Heavenly Dragon Chief said icily.
Jiechi sat cross-legged on the ground and pressed his palms together. "Amitabha, our lips are sealed." The rest of the monks echoed him. "Amitabha." Their faces were calm as if they were ready to meet their makers. After all that the expert had done for them, they would rather die than to reveal his whereabouts.
The Big Lord Demon was staring at the monks with his mouth agape. ‘All that chanting must have made them stupid! Don’t they know the Dragons would not stop so easily? They will definitely investigate further which means all your
"Well then, it seems like you left me with no choice but to kill you all," said the Heavenly Dragon Chief in a deep voice.
"Go ahead," said Jiechi serenely.
The Big Lord Demon started to panic and so he quickly stood up. "Hold on. I can show you the way!"
"You?" The Heavenly Dragon Chief asked.
"I’ll be of good service to you, Lord Dragon. I’m very experienced in this kind of matter." Then he laughed before continuing on, "It’s just that I have to warn you that the person we’re about to meet possesses unimaginable power. It’s better if we don’t go at all."
"Unimaginable power? Ha! You must not know the true extent of us Dragons’ power!"
"Quit your yapping and show us the way before we change our mind!" The other Dragons said impatiently.
Faced with this, the Big Lord Demon was oddly calm. He even wanted to laugh out loud. All that the Dragons said sounded so familiar to him. He tried to warn them again but received the same response. "Alright, don’t say I didn’t try to warn ya. Let’s go then," he finally said.
Jiechi watched the Big Lord Demon leading them away and started to panic. "Hurry, send out the signal to inform the Heavenly Palace and other alliance members to tell them to do everything in their power to make sure the Dragons would not disturb the expert!"
The Big Lord Demon slid right into this old job. Due to his rich experience, he was not worried about how all this would pan out. He even played a trick on the Dragons whereby he did not immediately take them to the four-part architecture but purposely led them around a wild goose chase before going there. He did this to buy everyone some time.
Everything went as he planned when he heard someone shout from the sky, "Halt! You’ve all been surrounded." Immediately, light beams shot out as Yang Jian, the Heavenly Soldiers, and the Heavenly Guards all entered the scene. Apart from them, they could all see the other strong figures peeking their heads out of the clouds. The Empath Sect, the White Cloud Sect, the Hundred Flower Sect, and the Legendary Beast Sect… They were all there with their fierce eyes fixed on the Dragons and their mana carousing wildly.
The Heavenly Dragon Chief swept his eyes over them and said, "Judging by the security here, we’re definitely in the right place."
"Go back or else you’ll regret the day you make an enemy out of the person inside," said Cultivator Junjun.
"SInce the very beginning, us Dragons had never met an enemy we cannot defeat!" The Heavenly Dragon Chief said with a cold smile. "It’s not that I look down on you all but there’s only a handful of people who would be able to take us on now that all the Dragons have banded together. And those people do not include any one of you!"
"Unless you defeat us all, don’t even think you can take a step further," said Xiao Chengfeng determinedly.
"He’s right. We need to protect the expert no matter what!"
"We didn’t receive any cured meat from the expert, meaning to say we have not left a deep enough impression in his heart. We should use this as an opportunity to change that!"
"The expert’s meditation retreat is of the utmost importance! Make sure nothing goes wrong with it!"
"Today, we have come together, to protect the expert’s meditation retreat at all cost!" The group said determinedly.
Ever since their return back from the ancient battleground, Cultivator Junjun had rounded everyone for a discussion on what the Soul Master had told him. Each of them were awed by what the expert was doing and wished they could prostrate themselves before him in worship there and then.
Resurrecting the ancient battle souls? Only the expert would dare to do such a thing like this for this was akin to going against the whole of Chaos. They felt honored to be able to serve the expert and not to mention they were indebted to them for all he had done for them. So it was only natural for them to be willing to sacrifice themselves for his sake.
"You have no idea what you’re all doing. For the sake of the whole of Chaos, I advise you to surrender," said Nuwa in a serious tone.
"Surrender?" The Heavenly Dragon Chief with his eyes wide open. Then as if he had heard the funniest joke of the century, he roared out in laughter, "Never in a million years would it have crossed my mind that us Dragons would be looked down upon in a godforsaken place like this. You really left me with no choice but to kill the person you so wish to protect and take over the Area of the Gods and make the Dragon Race glorious again!" Then, without further ado, the Heavenly Dragon Chief sent down the order they’ve all been waiting for. "Kill them all!"
Countless suppressive force surged up as the Dragons fought with the expert’s people. Their movement kicked up a whirlwind which distorted the very fabric of space itself as the battle descended into a mess. Suddenly, they all gave out an attack at the same time which caused infinite mana to bloom in the sky in rainbow colors. Water and fire attack, wine and lightning attack, and all sorts of other attacks created a dizzying spectacle.
The Dragons had transformed to their original appearance with the Dragon Horse galloping through the air, the Yellow Dragon fluttering their wings, and the silvery Heavenly Dragon breathing out thunder and lightning. The Dragons were naturally the most powerful race in the whole of Chaos.
Each of the races was akin to a powerful sect and now had become even more powerful since joining forces together. There were thirteen Heavenly Realm Dragons with five of them being the Heavenly Dragon Race. The Heavenly Dragon Chief was of course one of the five.
Under the alliance of the Heavenly Temple, although they had the same Heavenly Realm fighters as the Dragons, their battle power was still lacking. They would not have lasted long if it was not for the formation of all the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Guards. As the clock ticked by, the difference in power became even more obvious.
"We’re the top race in Chaos. We’re unassailable, invincible, and will always get what we want. Today, we’ll see who the real victor is!" The Heavenly Dragon Chief said with a roar. His roar was imbued with all the majesty of a dragon and when it erupted, they could feel a shred of Power of Wisdom as if the sound of an exploding universe had slammed into their eardrums. The force destroyed their formation and they were sent flying across the air. Everyone was frustrated at how the battle was turning out. They hated how weak they were compared to the Dragons.
Seeing their pitiful state, each of the Dragons’ faces broke out in a triumphant smile. "That oughta show you who’s the boss here and if it doesn’t, you all are more than welcome to come at us again!"
Suddenly, a voice came from somewhere else. "The top race? Huh! What nonsense!"
Everyone turned to the direction from where the voice was coming from. All they could see were ten or so figures flying closer and closer to them from the distant mountain range. Under the moonlight, their feathers were glowing brilliantly while emitting a majestic aura. Everything under the sky paled in comparison against those feathers.
Their sudden appearance made the Dragons quake in their boots for they felt a deep fear coursing through the blood.
"It’s…it’s…it’s…" Someone stuttered.
"Those are the chickens the expert keeps for eggs!" Cultivator Junjun said.
"The expert’s…chicken?" Most of them had never stepped foot inside the four-part architecture and felt their hearts about to explode with the secret knowledge. They had to hand it to the expert.
"Chaos Divine Phoenix! How is it possible for them to be here?" The Heavenly Dragon Chief screamed with his eyes wide open.
"Sh*t, how is it possible for Chaos to birth such a terrifying bloodline?"
"It’s a good thing they haven’t fully matured. We should kill it and drink their blood for nourishment!" The Dragons said.
"Who dares to call themselves the top race of Chaos?!" Someone asked.
Immediately, two Five-Color Sacred Cows flew in on the Deluxe Merit Cloud. They were glaring at the Dragons while their beaming five colors enveloped the world.
"Do these cows belong to the expert too," someone asked.
"Yes, they’re the expert’s milk cow," answered Cultivator Junjun.
"What breed of cow is this? Its bloodline is even more noble than mine," said the Heavenly Dragon Chief.
A few seconds later, they could see a mass of black shadows flying to them along with the sound of buzzing. The mass of black shadows were filled with a wild and murderous aura. The Dragons could not help but tremble with fear.
"Rare Chaos Creatures! Those are Rare Chaos Creatures!" Everyone, including the Heavenly Dragon Chief, all took a few involuntary steps back.
Although the bees’ power was not high, their strength lay in their numbers. No one would be able to come out alive once targeted by them.
Someone gulped down their saliva and asked, "Do they belong to the expert too?"
"Yes, the expert keeps them for their honey."
"Are there anymore?"
"Yes, but they might not come."
Gasp! "Just how many Rare Chaos Creatures do the experts keep?"
The Dragons were all on the verge of a breakdown.
"What kind of place is this? How is it possible for some many legendary creatures to exist here?
"It’s a big secret! It’s terrifying!"
"Everybody calm down! We might still win this fight!"
Suddenly, they heard an order. "Everyone stand back. I want to try out my new leather short pants."
