Chapter 508 - Zhou Yu, the Lord of Light!
Boom!
When the Qilin Stick made of enormous Yellow Wood hit the mermaid’s hand that was much smaller in size, a horrifying blast spread out, and a tsunami was raised from underneath the mermaid as if an earthquake had happened. The tides rose dozens of meters high!
However, the mermaid, who was only slightly more than one meters tall, and her hand that was holding the Qilin Stick remained absolutely still.
Crack!
Meanwhile, cracks appeared on the Qilin Stick at the point of impact where it hit the mermaid’s hand.
Lu Junyi’s Qilin Stick was mainly made of Yellow Wood and boasted the remarkable feature of energy absorption. It had also absorbed Wang Qing’s Golden Dragon Rod!
It was not hard to imagine how hard the stick was. The Transcendent feature of the Yellow Wood was to shatter every target, yet it had been cracked by the mermaid.
Undoubtedly, the mermaid was Transcendent too. Also, she wasn’t just a regular Transcendent mermaid but a Transcendent mermaid player.
It was because between her hands, the silver light that represented talent abilities could be vaguely seen!
After blocking Lu Junyi’s attack, the mermaid opened her hand and pierced her glowing fingernails into the cracks on the Qilin Stick, ready to shatter it into pieces!
Fortunately, the Yellow Wood could not only expand and lengthen but also shrink. After it used up the power in the previous attack, it quickly glowed and reduced in size, and the Transcendent mermaid caught nothing in the end.
“%#%[email protected]!”
When she missed the target, the mermaid who had magnificent breasts seemed to be grunting angrily.
Then, she raised her hands, and all the air above the surface of the sea trembled violently and formed a pair of transparent hands that were almost a hundred meters long. They moved close to each other with the defenders on the Black Tortoise’s back trapped in between!
“Hiss!”
After a hiss, the snake on the Black Tortoise’s back appeared and with the tortoise head, they blocked the closing hands together.
Boom!
The snake and the tortoise head were both shaken violently.
The huge noise made the hundred warriors of Dragon City bleed and dizzy.
Some of them even passed out and slipped off of the tortoise’s back. They were ripped apart and swallowed by the sea monsters, which were also feeling dizzy but kept their bloody mouths wide open.
Undoubtedly, the mermaid had “Perfect” combat ability!
Not just the two of them, more Transcendent mermaids and mermen joined the battle, and a lot of them carried Transcendent treasures that were similar to the conch shell.
Obviously, their settlement had advanced into the Transcendent level too.
Also, it was more powerful than the settlements of the yakshas and the Dense Fog race.
After all, although Dragon City was the first one to accomplish the advancement, it might not have as many resources as the mermaids and mermen, who occupied a much larger area in the sea!
Therefore, even though Wu Song, Lu Junyi, and other heroes had come as reinforcements with a lot of warriors, the situation was still not in Dragon City’s favor.
Whoosh!
Ruan Xiaoqi had been overly exhausted from the consecutive battles. The Hundred-Scaled Saber in his hands was shattered by a mermaid who had purple scales over her body.
The broken pieces of the saber were flung back, and some of them stabbed into his body and heavily wounded him.
Clang!
The Hellish Blood Tiger was stabbed through by a Transcendent merman, who held a glittering long spear that seemed to have been transformed from a flag sailfish.
It was half a weapon and half a living creature. It was very hard, yet it could hardly resist the attacks of the Transcendent merman, especially when the merman’s talent, similar to Li Guang’s, had some sort of destructive ability.
Whoosh!
Lu Junyi’s mecha had even more cracks, and it seemed that it would apart any minute because the Transcendent power in the Yellow Wood that the mecha was made of had been used up.
“Hu… I cannot fight any longer!”
Hao Dahai, whose level was high, didn’t have much battle experience. He was already covered in blood, and one of his legs was seriously twisted. He breathed heavily. His previously glittering knife was already ragged.
It had been corroded by the fluid that a Transcendent monster similar to a squid spurted out. Even the hatred and remaining soul power of the creatures attached to the knife were eaten away too.
The level of the weapon even dropped to the Ordinary level!
Splash!
On the surface of the sea, a red octopus that was three meters long leaped from the surface of the sea and lunged at Hao Dahai in red light, but Hao Dahai was too tired to dodge.
“Damn it, I wonder which settlement I will be reborn in…
“Would I still have a chance to meet everybody in the Land of Inheritance again?
“However, the Dragon City Group on Earth has already been established. With my Honor, I can at least work as a mid-level manager in the corporation…”
When he was about to be killed, Hao Dahai wasn’t exactly scared. He simply thought of a lot of things rather unhappily.
“Roar!”
After a roar, a western red dragon flew from behind Hao Dahai and knocked away the giant octopus. It also opened its mouth and spewed flames on the Extraordinary Rank-8 Quasi-Commander octopus.
When the flames were gone, the red dragon was nowhere to be seen. The only thing that could be found was a bronze bullet that was still steaming from the fully heated octopus!
“Luckily, we’ve made it in time.
“Thank you for your hard work. We’ll take it from here!”
A gentle voice came from Hao Dahai’s communicator.
The Vermilion Bird that defended the south shrieked and dropped several feathers, which enshrouded something outside of the protective array and allowed it to pass through the barrier.
Then, the feathers flew all the way to the Black Tortoise in the north and disappeared, revealing a lot of men!
Zhou Yu, Li Guang, Yan Qing, Dian Wei…
They were exactly the heroes of Dragon City who were blocked by the green Flood Dragon on their way back.
Among them, Yan Shuangying, dressed in a black cloak, was holding a pair of pistols that were still hot and red from the previous shooting.
“Transforming water into soldiers with music. That’s remarkable!”
Waving the sparking fan in his hand, Zhou Yu looked at the sea giants and other monsters in the seawater, which was as high as the Black Tortoise’s back and a hundred meters higher than the ground. He wasn’t really nervous.
Getting to the bottom of it, it was no more intimidating than the scene when Old Demon Black Mountain charged at Guobei County with a huge mountain!
“They’re afraid of fire?”
After hearing the intelligence that Elder Zhou delivered via the communicator, Zhou Yu was intrigued and put on a smile.
“If so, I invite you to watch this!”
The moment he finished his sentence, jade white flames arose on his fan and quickly expanded until they consumed Zhou Yu himself.
After that, the flames rose to the sky until they were thirty meters tall. Then, they abruptly retreated to the center and revealed Zhou Yu again. However, he was completely different from before. He was translucent as if he were made of the jade white flames. His face was smooth like real jade, and the brightest flames were burning in his eyes. He was truly awe-inspiring!
[Lord of Light’s Fan of Holy Fire]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-2]
[Rarity: Perfect (Rare)]
[Description: Dragon City’s Master created this by fusing the Holy Fire Crystal and the Holy Fire Badge with the Treasure Refining talent. It can invoke Holy Fire and let the Lord of Light reincarnate in you. Anyone who’s disrespectful to the Lord of Light shall be purged!]
This Transcendent treasure was, naturally, made by Ji Ye too.
Its materials included the crystals that the Holy Fire Altar condensed over the previous few days, the Holy Fire Badge, and some of the unused materials when the Retribution Fire Trident was crafted.
The level of the equipment wasn’t too high, but it was surprisingly powerful and effective.
It was because the Holy Fire, just like the retribution fire, came from within and used mental power as the fuel. Any person who was hostile towards Zhou Yu would be set ablaze when they saw him!
In particular, the enemies were the mermaids and mermen.
Hum!
One of the mermen who stared at Zhou Yu, who had transformed into the Lord of Light, suddenly had bloodshot eyes. Then, flames emerged in his pupils.
“[email protected]%&%!”
He shrieked and attempted to cover his eyes with his hands.
However, the bright flames spread out of his eyes to his hands.
Boom!
In the next moment, the frightened merman exploded as if his body were a keg of gas that had just been detonated.
The gigantic explosion spread out almost a hundred meters. The Extraordinary sea monsters that were protecting the merman under his control were blown up into charred meat.
The sea monsters that were further away, and those which were too strong to be killed by the explosion, became uncontrollable because the merman died and the threads that bound them were burned in the flames. They charged at the sea monsters around them as well as the other mermen!
The flames resulting from the explosion consumed another merman, which caused another explosion that swept a hundred meters.
Boom, boom, boom, boom…
The oil inside the mermaids and mermen was set ablaze easily.
As a result, serial explosions were happening on the battlefield, and a thousand mermaids and mermen and ten thousand sea creatures were killed in the blink of an eye!
More importantly, the explosions burned a great number of colorful threads. As a result, the sea monsters that were controlled by the mermaids went on a rampage and attacked them.
The formation of the mermaids and mermen were disrupted with a lot of casualties.
“#@%&…%#@&!”
The merman who was playing the conch shell stopped and looked at Zhou Yu solemnly.
Then, he said something aloud.
Zhou Yu was a target that must be eliminated quickly because his Transcendent power was fatal to them.
“Roarrrr!”
The conch shell was blown away, emitting provocative and exciting soundwaves. The sea giants they formed all gathered and charged towards Zhou Yu.
Those sea giants were not real living creatures and did not have hostility, so naturally, they were immune from the Holy Fire.
Hum!
In addition, the mermaid player who had magnificent breasts took action too.
One of her hands emanated silver light as she pressed it towards Zhou Yu remotely.
All the air above the Black Tortoise was moved and gathered into a giant hand with a coverage of a hundred square meters. It slapped Zhou Yu brutally!
However, Zhou Yu wasn’t alone.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the sky, snowflakes were falling down towards the sea giants that were attacking on the surface of the sea.
A small ice crystal appeared at the point of impact. It then spread out quickly. In only several seconds, the enormous sea giants were transformed into frozen ice sculptures!
“Roar!”
A completely transparent ice dragon roared and flew to the sky, breaking the invisible hand that the mermaid player had formed!
On the head of the vivid ice dragon, Zhao Yun stood in front of Zhou Yu and waved his spear, blocking all the remote attacks that the mermaids and mermen launched.
Other than Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun was the only hero who fought back despite being outnumbered by his enemies in Three Kingdoms!
Zhao Yun wasn’t the only hero in Dragon City.
“Borrow Power From the Universe!”
A golden sword aura rose to the sky and executed three hundred monsters.
“I invite the Third Prince to come down and turn the sea upside down.”
A cloud descended, and a person who had red ribbons on his body attacked vehemently, trembling the sea!
Crack, crack, crack, crack…
The Gatling Bodhisattva revolved 3,600 times in a second and benevolently sent the enemies to the other world.
Not just Zhou Yu, Dian Wei, Yan Qing, Ninth Uncle, Gongsun Sheng, Yan Shuangying, Dian Wei, Lu Zhishen, and Li Guang…
All the heroes attacked with their full strength the moment they joined the battlefield, demonstrating the high combat ability of the Superior and Perfect heroes of Dragon City!
