Chapter 4236: Chapter 4236: Execute You All! (Third Update)
"Master, there’s a strange fluctuation in my bloodline. I sense the aura of an opportunity and creation! The legendary Ancient Immemorial Ancestor Dragon should be at the mountaintop!"
The blood dragon’s gaze fixed on the mountaintop, vaguely feeling its bloodline boiling, as if an opportunity awaited him ahead.
"Ancient Immemorial Ancestor Dragon..."
Ye Chen’s eyes lit up.
The Eternal Sacred King had mentioned that an Ancient Immemorial Ancestor Dragon was trapped at the Dragon Annihilation Cliff, with the most powerful and pure bloodline, reportedly suppressed due to power struggles.
If one could rescue the Ancient Immemorial Ancestor Dragon, they would receive its legacy!
"Let’s go and have a look."
Ye Chen made up his mind. It was said that the Dragon Annihilation Cliff was extremely dangerous, and those who dared to venture in never returned alive.
He wanted to see for himself if this place was truly that dangerous.
The three of them continued on their journey, moving through each perilous place, terrifyingly dangerous paths such as the Soul-breaking Gorge, Shizu Rock, and Ghost Despair Wall. The roads to the summit were winding and treacherous.
Moreover, there was layer upon layer of seal fluctuations, making it impossible to fly, so they could only proceed on foot.
Fortunately, Ye Chen and the other two were all strong, and they finally arrived unharmed at the Heavenly Connection Bridge.
Before them stretched an iron chain bridge spanning between two mountain walls, constructed with as many as ninety-nine chains. Below lay a sharp abyss, with faintly heard eerie sounds. Falling down might result in disaster.
"Be careful, everyone. Once we cross this iron chain bridge, we’ll be at the summit."
Ye Chen looked up and saw the summit right in front of them, where a gigantic rock seemed to be suppressing something.
"Master, wait, do you hear something?"
The blood dragon stopped, his gaze fixated on the summit.
"What sound?"
Ye Chen and Yan Kun looked puzzled and also turned their attention to the summit, listening intently.
Finally, they heard faint sounds, like someone was shouting from the summit:
"Run quickly, the Source Beasts are coming, you’re all going to die..."
Hearing this, Ye Chen and the other two were shocked.
With a thunderous crash!
At that moment, the Dragon Burial Hall on the mountainside suddenly collapsed.
A shriek piercing the heavens and the earth followed.
Immediately, a Black Phoenix burst out from the ruins of the collapsed palace, spreading its wings and soaring straight for the sky.
Wailing sounds echoed!
The Black Phoenix’s body was surrounded by an endless dark aura, seemingly set to envelop the sky, creating an awe-inspiring sight.
"The Ten Great Primordial Beasts, Black Phoenix! Who would have thought that besides the Dark Source Talisman, there was a Source Beast suppressed within the Dragon Burial Hall!"
The blood dragon’s pupils shrank in complete shock.
"What’s a Source Beast?"
Ye Chen was greatly surprised, sensing the Black Phoenix’s terrifying aura that seemed insurmountable by humans.
"Source Beasts are spiritual beasts guarding the Source Talismans! The Black Phoenix guards the Dark Source Talisman. I never expected it to be suppressed here too."
The blood dragon raised a scepter, intending to manifest his dragon form as the Black Phoenix approached. However, the Dragon Annihilation Cliff’s seals were too intense, prohibiting his transformation, forcing him to maintain his human form.
"It’s so huge!"
Yan Kun exclaimed in awe.
The Black Phoenix flew upward, its wings spread wide, endless black energy swirling, practically blotting out the skies.
Strands of Source Qi also emanated from the Black Phoenix, striking awe into all who saw.
Source Beasts are guardians of the Source Talismans and have absorbed a trace of the talisman’s aura, thus they possess Source Qi and have formidable combat power.
"Wait, something’s odd about this Black Phoenix!"
Ye Chen gripped the Slaughter Sword tightly, feeling a resonance between the dark source rune on the sword and the Black Phoenix, causing the whole sword to tremble, with runes circulating.
But more than that, he sensed another strange aura.
The Black Phoenix’s Source Qi wasn’t singular.
There were two auras!
Besides the Dark Origin Energy, there was Storm Source Energy!
Storm runes swirled around the Black Phoenix’s body, intertwining continuously, as endless gales howled, with whirlwinds of Astral Wind descending upon the scene. Stones shattered with crackling noises, trees broke, and dust filled the air, presenting an apocalyptic sight.
"What’s going on? How does this Black Phoenix have Storm Source Energy?"
The blood dragon was equally confused. The Black Phoenix being the guardian of the Dark Source Talisman with Dark Origin Energy was normal, but how did it possess Storm Source Energy?
"It’s Ye Luo’er!"
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as, through a mystical connection, he sensed the karma of Ye Luo’er from the Black Phoenix!
In almost an instant, Ye Chen deduced the heavenly mechanism vein: Ye Luo’er inherited the Storm Source Talisman from the Ancestral Dragon Temple and had just lent it temporarily to the Black Phoenix.
Just a Black Phoenix alone was terrifying enough.
Now, this Black Phoenix wielding the Storm Heavenly Power was incredibly formidable.
"By the Holy Maiden’s order, you are to be slain!"
"Storm Disaster, suppress them!"
The Black Phoenix circled in the air, its clear and pleasant voice laced with murderous intent.
With a sweep of its wings, black whirlwinds arose, carrying a terrifying aura of destruction, sweeping towards Ye Chen and the other two.
"Break!"
Ye Chen swung his sword fiercely at one of the tornadoes.
Yet a strange scene unfolded. Despite being air, it felt as if his sword was striking a copper wall or iron wall, emitting metallic clangs, jolting his grip numb and completely failing to break through.
"Shocking Lightning Demon Thunder Blade!"
The blood dragon swung the scepter, executing a divine power from the Dragon Valley, and released a thunderous blade radiance towards the surrounding whirlwinds, but that too failed to break them.
Yan Kun wielded the Immortal Extinguishing Sword, with equally futile results.
These storm whirlwinds contained vast Source Qi, far beyond the capability of ordinary means to challenge.
The three hurriedly dodged and sidestepped, continually evading the assaults of the whirlwinds.
They knew very well that if swept into the swirling winds, they would never come out alive, endlessly drifting and sinking in the violent storms until death claimed them!
This was the horror of the Storm Source Talisman!
The whirlwind storms born from the Storm Source Talisman were a genuine Storm Disaster, not merely world-destroying but also causing excruciating torment, trapping people in the whirlwinds until death.
"Luo’er wants to kill us!"
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, feeling a twinge of sorrow.
Ye Luo’er had strayed too far. From the Black Phoenix, he sensed Ye Luo’er’s overwhelming murderous intent.
She wasn’t joking.
"Big Brother, things are bad. If this drags on, we’ll be exhausted to death eventually."
Yan Kun pressed beside Ye Chen. They barely managed to avoid the whirlwinds using their movement technique, but prolonged engagement would exhaust them eventually.
"Don’t worry, I’m here."
Ye Chen’s gaze was firm as he suddenly swung the Slaughter Sword, shouting:
"Bring the Thunder!"
In an instant, the sky filled with rolling dark clouds, and the thunder reverberated mightily.
Thunderbolts surged in the clouds and crashed down violently, striking Ye Chen’s sword.
Instantly, a terrifying Dao Seal exploded on Ye Chen’s sword, imbued with a dreadful aura of destruction.
Ye Chen himself seemed to transform into the Death God of Destruction.
Chop!
One slash of destruction, like a deity and demon, like a tidal wave and sea, burst forth.
At last, the seemingly indestructible storm whirlwinds began to collapse.
