Chapter 1602: Heavenly Dragons Judgment of Kings, Titanic Divine Force!
Chapter 1602: Heavenly Dragon's Judgment of Kings, Titanic Divine Force!
Kingslaying! This word seemed to contain a mysterious power as not only the experts from the Xia Kingdom were left starry eyed but also the soldiers from the Five Guardian Armies! Everyone was flushed red with a feverish excitement. Fanaticism could be seen brewing in all their gazes. Kingslaying! There were few achievements since the beginning of time that could match this glory. Kings were lofty existences and were essentially untouchable to mortal men. Thus the very thought of it radiated its own charm. The Five Guardian Armies were a cornerstone of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li's longevity and had their own unique point of pride. This was because their combined power in a formation was sufficient to challenge even a King!
With numbers they could resist them!
The complete Five Guardian Armies could work together to form the Heavenly Dragon formation to reach this state.
However this was the ultimate state of the Five Guardian Armies and it wasn't easy to achieve either. It required a Grand Guardian General with a deep foundation and was powerful in their own right in order to harness the violent energies. Thus strictly speaking, it had been more than ten years since the Five Guardian Armies had even come together for the Heavenly Dragon formation due to the lack of a capable commander, and thus had not been able to demonstrate its power capable of challenging Kings. Yet it was this very day where they finally heard the summons to do so. Furthermore Li Luo's declaration was incredibly domineering.
They were going to slay a King! If such a battle achievement succeeded, their names would forever be part of the Five Guardian Armies's history, for the younger generations to admire and worship. Even the Guardian Generals like Li Foluo and Li Zhihuo's eyes turned heated as their desire to battle soared. "Form the ranks!"
Numerous voices shouted out as the Five Guardian Armies responded.
The Guardian Generals were the first to fly into the air, forming critical points of the formation as the rest of their armies spread out like a tide, taking the positions. Being able to assemble the Heavenly Dragon formation was a necessary drill that the Five Guardian Armies practiced daily, and thus these actions had already been engraved into their minds. As the Five Guardian Armies quickly took formation, worldly natural energy surged in like a deluge, creating a humongous energy vortex above them. After which the energy was channeled into the soldiers through pillars of resonant power. Everyone's figures were submerged by the immense tide of energy as the illusory figure of a titanic Heavenly Dragon took shape.
The Heavenly Dragon was coiled up, seemingly still in a state of hibernation as more than ten thousand violet gold scales glinted brightly. If one were to look closer, they would realize that each scale represented a single soldier from the Five Guardian Armies. Terrifying pressure radiated out from the illusory Heavenly Dragon, shattering the void all around it.
The wave of Others that was originally charging towards them were forcibly crushed into repugnant mush once they approached a radius of ten thousand feet around it. Li Luo glanced at the slumbering Heavenly Dragon as he waved his hand, causing the Grand Guardian General plaque to appear. With a roar like thunder, his six Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds began to shine as incredible amounts of resonant power was directed into it. "With my title as the Grand Guardian General, I summon the Heavenly Dragon to return to its throne!"
As his thunderous words reverberated all around him, layers of ripples of light began to spread across the illusory Heavenly Dragon figure. After a few moments, it began to stir as the tightly closed eyes opened, causing beams of violet gold light to shoot out, piercing through the sky.
Roar!
A heaven shaking draconic roar rumbled through the world as it awakened.
The illusory Heavenly Dragon rushed into the sky, transforming into countless streams of golden light which fused into Li Luo's body.
Li Luo's originally large body began to experience rapid growth, whilst the scales on the surface of his body became even more dazzling whilst the five mythic armaments on him trembled with excitement. Li Luo now resembled a dragon god who had descended upon the mortal world. Relying on his robust physical body and the Dragon Blood Atavism Art, he easily contained the energy from the Heavenly Dragon formation within his frame.
Fluctuations of power no weaker than a Single Crowned King swept out from Li Luo's body.
Li Jiluo, Li Qingpeng and the rest of the experts from the previous generation couldn't help but to look on at this sight in a daze. They had witnessed the Heavenly Dragon formation once but it was nothing compared to how easily Li Luo absorbed the energy.
Even Li Taixuan wasn't capable of this.
Furthermore he wasn't as strong as Li Luo at that point either. Across the history of the bloodline, there was even a case where a Grand Guardian General had forcibly harnessed the Heavenly Dragon formation but his body was unable to withstand the berserk and vast amounts of energy, eventually causing it to breakdown and he almost died instantaneously.
"It has been many years since the Five Guardian Armies have revealed their true might to the world." Li Qingpeng sighed emotionally. Jiang Qing'e was also closely watching the tall and burly figure in the skies. The power which Li Luo exuded had completely surpassed her, causing her eyes to ripple with a look of joy. Jiang Qing'e didn't plan to interfere in Li Luo's battle. This stage was for him and him alone. She wanted to let the people of the Xia Kingdom look at how far he had gone and the sheer power he grasped now.
In the past, everyone had often overlooked him, doubting his talent, his blank palace, his potential, his relationship with her and so on...
Even though this was all said and done and they had reached the point where they no longer needed to prove anything to others, Jiang Qing'e still remembered. She wanted Li Luo to reveal his splendor and brilliance to the doubters of the past. Amidst the gazes filled with shock and admiration, Li Luo floated in the sky as he sensed the glorious and awe-inspiring power running through him, his heart filled with waves of emotion. This power was incredibly vast and yet pure, containing true source origin energy.
This was the first time he could sense fully formed source origin energy and it wasn't like the feeble strands he had controlled before.
As he stretched his hand out, wisps of golden smoke began to rise into the air. The smoke contained endless amounts of spirituality within and it was almost as though tiny dragons were coming to life, giving off a majestic but also overbearing sort of feeling.
Dragon source origin!
His eyes flowed with golden light as he glanced at the Enchanting Fox King whose charming and sinister expression started to turn solemn. She finally felt threatened by him. Not too long ago, Li Luo had managed to resist her move but with everything he had. It was forced. Thus if she were to truly go all out, she had the confidence to kill Li Luo in a fight. However with the Heavenly Dragon formation's assistance, his strength had truly surpassed the gap between them, reaching similar levels. She now had to treat him as an equal.
"You're only borrowing external strength and cannot possibly have a good control over this power. It is wasted on you and a facade." The Enchanting Fox King's gaze overflowed with murderous intent. There was no plans to escape this confrontation. Now that things had reached this stag, she had to kill him. She then took a step forward and a moment later, corruption erupted from behind her in huge waves as the gigantic Nine-tailed Fox let out a deafening screech. As the tails swayed, countless black shadows shot outwards like a torrential rain, flying towards Li Luo.
These black shadows contained countless dark crimson needles made of blood. Each blood needle exuded source origin undulations and just a single one could easily perforate a high-grade Duke, turning him into a bloody pool. Meanwhile tens of thousands of these needles were targeted right at Li Luo.
When faced with this frightening attack, if Li Luo didn't have the support of the Heavenly Dragon formation, he would have had to dodge it.
Alas even he was slightly fearful of the power he now had. He took the initiative to step forward as the Hundred Battles Platemail burst with scintillating light, containing the power of the dragons.
When the draconic aura fused with the light, it formed a Draconic Worldspace Domain and as soon as the needles entered its radius, it was ground into fine dust.
He then tightly clutched the Light and Dark Spear and the Golden Bone Hammer as he strode forward, every footstep causing cracks in the void. Between his brows, the violet gold mark began to shine as it split apart to reveal the golden Crystal Core. Within it, a minor world containing source origin was constantly devouring worldly natural energy. Upper ninth-grade Heavenly Dragon resonance! The five treasures he equipped began to emit buzzing sounds of joy as though it couldn't wait to fuse with this energy.
Li Luo's momentum soared yet again.
The noise he made was so distracting that even Pang Qianyuan, Lan Lingzi and Li Qingying who were currently engaging an Other King each turned their attention towards him briefly. An upper ninth-grade Heavenly Dragon resonance was something that even veteran Kings envied.
This was especially the case for Pang Qianyuan. When he first encountered Li Luo, he only had sixth-grade resonances. In just a short time, he had elevated one of his resonances to an upper ninth-grade...
This was unbelievable.
Li Luo then raised the Light and Dark Spear along with the Golden Bone Hammer, the remaining three of the treasures all started to roar as the auras merged perfectly. When the five were combined, it would transform into a true venerated heirloom. The Apex Resonance Crystal Core continued to pour out boundless amounts of dragon source origin energy as golden light blazed, looking like countless dragon scales glittering, yet each strand of energy seemed as solid as a heavy mountain.
This source origin energy then flooded into the spear and the hammer.
Li Luo then struck both weapons against each other. Dang! The resounding boom echoed throughout the heavens and the earth and within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, the sound of metal clashing was like heavenly thunder exploding! When the five were fused into one, it would transform into the Heavenly Dragon's Judgment of Kings, Titanic Divine Force. This was the ultimate killing move of the Five Guardian Armies.
Weng!
Beneath the spear and the hammer, boundless amounts of regal violet gold divine force shot out, forming the shape of a humongous dragon which tore the sky apart. It was like apocalyptic lightning, containing pure destructive power which blasted towards the Enchanting Fox King.
The Enchanting Fox King's eyes were filled with the sight of the violet gold divine force as her entire body started to show signs of falling apart. Countless wails of pain seemed to coming from deep within these crevices on her body.
This attack was simply too overbearing. She hurriedly formed a distorted seal as the tails of the Nine-tailed Fox rose upwards like an impenetrable bulwark. Additionally, sticky blood flowed out from the tails, as the tips of the tails acted like pens, quickly outlining something in the void as it was imbued with corruption source origin.
In a few moments, it had drawn out a black talisman that was a thousand feet large.
The talisman was condensed from pure corruption and just looking at it caused the Dukes on the city walls to feel a chill run down their spines. It filled them with abject terror.
If this were to land on the City of Southwind, all life as they knew it would probably be extinguished.
"Devil Fox Myriad Blood Talisman!"
The Enchanting Fox King let out a screech as the talisman began to shrink, transforming into a hundred feet large pearl that dripped with fresh inky blood. Bang!
The pearl then shot through the void, staining any worldly natural energy it came into contact with, turning it into a poisonous rain which fell upon the earth.
Tense looks and bated breaths quietly watched as the two incredible attacks collided.
Bang!
An indescribably tempest of energy erupted, shaking the entire City of Southwind to the point it looked as though all the buildings were going to collapse.
Even so no one dared to turn away as they continued to stare at the epicentre of the explosion.
Two source origin energies were struggling violently when the Enchanting Fox King's eyes shrunk drastically. She then started to retreat as swiftly as she could leaving behind countless afterimages in her wake.
Bang!
However at the next moment, a draconic figure created from the divine stars pierced through the poisonous rain like a sharp arrow as an ear-rending ripping sound could be heard, tearing all the afterimages to shreds.
It then heavily crashed into the final escaping figure.
The void shattered like glass at that moment, as the ripping sound reverberated through the skies. The Enchanting Fox King let out a furious roar as her chest was mangled by the divine stars. Black blood splattered, turning into a shower of blood which sprinkled upon the earth. Just as she roared, the void before her broke apart as a fist covered in dragon scales struck like a bolt of lightning. The fingertips were like tyrannical claws, shrouded by the violet gold divine force which struck the Enchanting Fox King's head with the force of a sledgehammer. Bang!
The speed of the blow was so swift a sonic boom was heard whilst blood from the top of the head flowed down and covered the cheeks. Meanwhile the Enchanting Fox King had plummeted to the ground like a cannonball after being hit by Li Luo's cataclysmic blow. The mountains beneath were flattened as a huge pit in the ground opened up.
Smoke and dust was all that could be seen in the aftermath.
When it dispersed, everyone could see the tall and burly figure resembling a dragon god in human form standing in the recess he created. At this moment, his foot was crushing the face of the Enchanting Fox King as she continued to wail in pain and horror. Li Luo's originally handsome and harmless face revealed a cruel and ferocious smile. At the same time, his voice which was icy and the desire to kill leaked out ambivalently. "Is an Other King that amazing?"
