Banners fluttered like shadows; it turned out to be flowing clouds transforming into locks.
The sound of gongs and drums grew heavy, yet the thunder was muted.
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor stood deep within the churning white mist, his brow furrowing slightly.
A sudden palpitation in his heart came without reason, yet it was so real it was annoying.
He was the Demon Emperor of the Eleventh Cave of Spirit Mountain, a practitioner of the Taibai Liuhong lineage.
His cultivation had long since reached the late stage of the Ascending Tower Realm.
Even in the entire Eastern Region, he held a place of prominence.
A mere newcomer to the Ascending Tower Realm, even if it was a True Dragon.
How could it cause him such absurd unease?
Suppressing the stray thoughts in his mind, his crane-like eyes returned to indifference, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly. "Your gaze... truly makes this Emperor a bit displeased."
"In return, after I send you back to the Grotto-Heaven, I will surely ask the Immortal Master for your corpse..."
The young girl just listened with a grin.
Against the backdrop of fresh blood, her smile appeared increasingly hideous.
The next moment.
Boom—
Five-colored radiance burst forth in all directions.
Thousands of streaks of auspicious Qi rose, and purple mist swirled.
The human form originally trapped by the chains dissipated in an instant.
"Ang—!!!"
A body several Zhang long spanned the Void Realm.
Unlike the True Dragon he had imagined.
The True Dragon before him was surrounded by billowing black mist, with scarlet Evil Qi snaking between its dragon scales.
It was like a Demonic Dragon.
"Hmm?"
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor's brow twitched, and he flapped his wings violently, intending to continue driving the white mist into the spear's body.
However.
The next moment.
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor's pupils suddenly constricted.
For the Demonic Dragon slowly raised its hand and grasped the spear shaft in its chest.
It only held on for a brief moment.
The Liuhong Great Spear was actually snapped in two by brute force.
Then it was pulled out.
The spear left the body.
A large spray of dark red dragon blood gushed out.
Looking into the vertical dragon pupils again, there wasn't a hint of the peace characteristic of an Auspicious Beast.
There was only tyranny and cruelty.
[Remaining Dao Cultivation: 530,797 years]
All in.
Invest it all.
Boom—!!!
The next second.
The billowing black mist that had been surrounding the Demonic Dragon began to boil.
Immediately after.
Piercing scarlet blood-light erupted frantically from beneath the ink-black scales.
The red light was like blood, hauntingly beautiful and extreme.
In just the time it takes for a single breath.
The blood-red color filling the sky actually overpowered the Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor's flowing cloud white mist.
Above the heavens.
Black mist churned, blotting out the sky and the sun.
The originally high-hanging blazing sun completely lost its brilliance in the face of such a phenomenon.
Heaven and earth grew dim, with only the blood-light shining alone.
In the distance.
The Crimson Blood Demon Emperor, who was about to exert force to snap the ox head in his hand, suddenly froze.
He turned toward the distance in shock.
On the other side.
The figure in black robes also trembled slightly, his eyes full of disbelief.
At the center where the billowing black mist and the blood-light filling the sky intertwined.
A great sun slowly rose.
It was not the previous gold and blue colors.
The current brilliant sun was half pitch-black like ink and half scarlet like blood.
The great sun rotated.
Wooo—
A shrill screeching sound exploded from within the Demonic Dragon!
Countless remnant souls of demons and monsters began to boil completely!
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor's face was filled with shock.
How... how can this be?!
This aura... is absolutely impossible for someone who has just entered the Ascending Tower Realm to possess.
Even for a True Dragon!
After all, while True Dragons are strong, they shouldn't be this unreasonable... such a terrifying aura has only been seen on the Chess-Playing Immortal Lord who resides high in the Grotto-Heaven!
"Ang—!!!"
An earth-shaking dragon roar exploded once more.
Five dragon shadows of different colors roared out from the blood-black great sun.
In the east was the Azure Dragon, its scales and claws flying, its Wood Qi of Yimu whistling through a thousand mountains.
In the north was a White Dragon, overturning rivers and seas, its Essence of Guishui raining in a thousand layers.
In the south was a Red Dragon, its raging flames burning the sky, its Might of Lihuo incinerating the nine heavens.
There was also a Black Dragon commanding ten thousand tons of thunder, and a Yellow Dragon carrying the thick earth and the vast sky.
The Five Elements emerged together.
Immortals and Buddhas retreated, while demons and monsters were all executed.
Five massive dragon shadows occupied the sky, sealing off the five directions: east, south, west, north, and center.
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor discovered in despair.
This world had become a death trap.
And at the center surrounded by the five dragons.
The blood-soaked Demonic Dragon slowly opened its maw full of fangs. "Didn't you want to see?"
"Well? Is it beautiful?"
"You..."
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor struggled to utter a single word.
Things seemed to have completely spun out of control.
Such terrifying pressure.
Never mind a mere Demon Emperor of the Eleventh Cave like him.
Even if the Third Master came himself, what damn use would it be in front of this?!
The Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor hesitated no longer and let out a shrill crane cry.
His originally solid Primordial Spirit body exploded, turning into a sky full of flowing cloud white mist, frantically escaping in all directions.
As long as a single wisp of mist escaped, he could use it for Rebirth!
However.
The Demonic Dragon watched the white mist scurrying everywhere, its eyes showing not the slightest urgency to give chase.
It simply opened its giant maw indifferently.
"Ang—!!!"
The dragon roar exploded.
Between heaven and earth, all sound suddenly vanished.
Immediately after.
Four-colored radiance erupted simultaneously from the dragon shadows' mouths.
The flowing cloud white mist escaping everywhere was instantly forced back to its original spot by the strangulation of thunder, fire, water, and earth, re-condensing into a white crane.
"Do you truly intend to fight Spirit Mountain to the bitter end?!"
Before he could make his next move.
There was another desolate dragon roar.
The phantom of the Azure Dragon coiled in the east suddenly lunged its head forward and bit down furiously.
With just one bite.
The Primordial Spirit of the Thousand Feathers Demon Emperor, famous in the Eastern Region, was directly crushed by the Azure Dragon and swallowed.
[Killed an Ascending to the Tower Realm Creature, obtained 879,425 years of Dao Cultivation]
As the notification sounded in his mind.
The phenomena filling the sky did not dissipate.
The five massive dragon shadows slowly turned their enormous heads.
Five pairs of dragon pupils, different in color but equally indifferent.
All fell upon a certain spot.
Feeling the five terrifying gazes, the Crimson Blood Demon Emperor's body stiffened. He trembled helplessly and immediately released the ox head he was holding, even considerately smoothing out the ruffled mane on Running Ox's neck.
Then he said sheepishly, "Tsk... uh... can we settle this peacefully?"
The Demonic Dragon did not speak, only staring indifferently at the two surviving Demon Emperors of Spirit Mountain.
But since the other party didn't speak.
The Crimson Blood Demon Emperor didn't dare to make a move.
For fear of provoking the other.
The atmosphere became somewhat strange for a moment.
Wang Ziyu's eyes also flashed with shock.
The scene just now was truly world-shattering.
He had known this harbinger of death was strong, having seen her methods at Five Immortals Mountain.
But he hadn't expected her to be this strong!
With only the strength of the early stage of the Ascending Tower Realm, she actually insta-killed an orthodox great demon of the late stage in a single breath?!
With such strength.
Why would there be any need to switch to the Way of Incense for the Great Tang..
