Chapter 576: Wrath of the Lich King (II)
Translator: GravityTales
He didn’t know what degree of power the next attack of the lich king would reach, so preparing a Light Prayers was no mistake.
That series of purple lumps was far more powerful than the blisters that came before. Not only were they extremely corrosive, they also came with terrifying impact force. While consecutively resisting a few dozen thanks to the defensive power of his Divine Snail Shield, he still continuously drew back along with the others, as the effects of the Conjoined Spiritual Boost massively went down. At that rate, the cast for Light Prayers wouldn’t be completed.
Right at that time, a purple glow was shot from the hexagon in the sky, landing right on Haochen. That instant, he felt the blood in his whole body surge out, as an indescribable force abruptly burst out. This force was unrelated to his internal spiritual energy, turning his whole skin into a purplish gold color. His retreating steps suddenly made a stop, as he forcibly maintained Shield Wall in front of him.
This mystical force felt like external spiritual energy reaching its highest peak state. A bizarre purplish golden light also emanated from the Divine Snail Shield, as if providing a new defensive layer to this divine-tool ranked shield.
The purplish lumps projected by the lich king at the six pointed star surprisingly didn’t have any effect. It only caused it to release surges of purple intent, dissolving the projectiles one after another.
But right at that time, ear-splitting bellows reverberated in the air. In cracks formed by that lich king, massive figures appeared one after another.
Bone dragons! Formed of pale bones, and with dark purple flames pulsing in their eyes, the bone dragons kept coming out from the cracks, aiming straight at Haochen and Haoyue.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere were no less than a hundred of them! And all reached the peak as undead creatures.
An ordinary bone dragon could contend with a gigantic dragon! There’s a certain gap, but each bone dragon is an undead powerhouse at the peak of the eighth step. They are blessed with great spiritual force and physical ability. Perhaps the myriad abruptly appearing bone dragons could only be contended against by the Demon God Emperor’s Devil Dragon Legions.
Long Haochen and the others couldn’t help but change complexion. Yet an even more terrifying scene followed. The purplish black domain of the lich king encompassed the area around these bone dragons, turning their bones purplish black as well. Previously at the peak of the eighth step, they finally all broke through the ninth step. For a moment, the whole sky was blocked off from sight, and all aimed at Long Haochen’s group.
Even after having completed this terrifying summons, the lich king still kept reciting incantations. She flew once again high in the sky, aiming her staff at Haoyue’s hexagonal structure. It looks as if her terrifying and powerful bone dragons were only aimed at stopping Long Haochen’s crew from interrupting her incantation.
This instant, Long Haochen operated his thoughts at lightning speed, coming to a decision in a flash. To the astonished looks of the others, he took the initiative to terminate the Conjoined Spiritual Boost, and returned at lightning speed, immediately making contact five times with his palm.
His palm, carrying every time a golden flash, transported Cai’er, Wang Yuanyuan, Lin Xin, Zhang Fangfang, and Han Yu as well as his Demonic Eye Commander back to the Tower of Eternity.
That instant, the bone dragons were already throwing themselves at them. But strangely, Long Haochen stopped to focus on Haoyue’s defense, and abruptly spread out his four wings, bursting out with resplendent light. Lightning Flash.
He was flying up to the bone dragons, and sticking close to the six purple pillars of light at Haoyue’s side. With Lightning Flash’s degree of speed, it took only a flash for him to reach the skies, facing off against the bone dragons at high altitude.
Having lost the boost from the Conjoined Spiritual Pills, the current Long Haochen suffered a great loss of strength, leaving the ninth step. But the dexterity of his flight reached the highest level.
One could see clearly that he performed extreme acrobatics in midair, sparing no cost of spiritual energy to put Lightning Flash to full use, and aimed at the small gaps between the bone dragons to break through forcefully.
After all, having just been summoned, these bone dragons were still a bit sluggish. Facing his approach, the nearest ones to him immediately launched attacks, but the overwhelming majority was dodged. Only the paw strike of one bone dragon managed to land on the Divine Snail Shield.
Although the bone dragons managed to reach the ninth step’s threshold thanks to the lich king’s domain, the combination of Long Haochen and his Divine Snail Shield at the divine tool rank was in no way so easy to split. Moreover, after gaining that layer of purple gold, Long Haochen’s external spiritual energy extraordinarily managed to immediately push away that bone dragon as his figure flashed away once again, even higher in the sky.
Another flash of golden light occurred, gaudily heading toward the lich king. Pull.
The instant Long Haochen had used Lightning Flash, Yating also attached herself to his body from behind. After his series of consecutive leaps, they managed to arrive within a hundred meters of the Lich King.
The orange lustered Aria of the Goddess of Light carried his sword intent at the realm of Sword and Body making one’, while the Divine Snail Shield also released its strongest multicolor golden light.
Now Long Haochen’s eyes were glistening, incomparably steady and calm. Facing the bone dragon was extremely frightful, but the most terrible was the lich king, yet it was vital to interrupt this very same lich king’s incantation.
Haoyue’s state of evolution prevented them from communicating, but Long Haochen could sense the mental changes on him. At the time these bone dragons appeared, Haoyue didn’t show the slightest mental fluctuation, but when that lich king began again to chant in front of the hexagonal body, Haoyue’s mental fluctuations became extremely violent.
Weighing the threats, Long Haochen immediately made the accurate judgement to transport the others back, for the sake of their safety.
Once again pulled in front of Long Haochen, the lich king issued another indignant shriek. She absolutely didn’t expect Long Haochen to make such a judgement, nor to show the ability to break free from the bone dragons’ encirclement.
At that very moment, at least four bone dragons were following Long Haochen’s back and launching their attacks. But the incantation of the lich king was still stopped.
_Bang._ A strong purplish black radiance surrounded Long Haochen’s body in a blast, scattering his sword intent forcibly. The terrifying blast caused Long Haochen to expel a mouthful of blood, but he completed Shield Wall at the same time to carry out his defense.
The Divine Snail Shield glinting in multicolor radiance was just so sturdy. That instant, it resisted not only the magic bombardment from the lich king, but also the four consecutive strikes from the bone dragons.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRelying on the layer of purple gold on his body as well as the powerful defensive force from his shield, Long Haochen managed that much. But he was now in desperate straits. Surrounded by four bone dragons while facing the incomparably formidable undead magic of the lich king, he was left with no way out.
This instant, an ear-splitting roar was heard below.
An mind-blowing scene followed: the over hundred bone dragons were all stunned hearing it. And the same went even for the lich king. historical
Then, that massive purple hexagonal formation in the sky blew up, spreading out a massive purple brilliance all around, encompassing the whole battlefield.
The flames in the eyes of every single bone dragon trembled violently, giving off the feeling that they could go extinct at anytime. Cowering with their whole bodies as if their lives depended on it, they tried to guard their soulfires with their whole power. Let alone attack, they were already facing an extreme struggle just to keep themselves alive.
In a flash of purplish golden, Haochen disappeared from this area, reappearing instead on Haoyue’s back.
The latter had just achieved his evolution. His roar was simultaneously coming from the six heads, including the newly born Little Yellow with a tomato shaped horn. The might from the six great heads radiated all around.
After evolving, Haoyue was now comparable to a human powerhouse of the eighth step in bearing, but the purple intent spreading out from his body was simply sensed as terrifying from the viewpoint of the bone dragons and even the lich king.
Six cold gazes gathered onto the lich king. As she once again let out a shriek, her mantle turned into mist, revealing the body behind it.
She had a perfect human build, a totally naked body, but had a skull for a head. Frantically waving her bone staff, she aimed strong black radiances at Haoyue.
“Groaa.” Once again roaring high, a large amount of purple intent undulated once again. The attacks of the lich king were immediately nullified in front of that purple intent, and Haoyue’s massive wings carried Long Haochen alongside him, scattering and smashing a bone dragon trying its utmost to preserve its soulfire along the way. The next instant, he disappeared beside Long Haochen in the dark night sky.
“No!” The lich king bellowed. Her wrath caused all the bone knights to shiver. But she still ended up defeated, and was only able to stare blankly at the process of Haoyue’s evolution, as he gained a sixth head.
Her defeat was unrelated to her strength. Facing the purple intent released by Haoyue, she couldn’t even display half her strength. In the end, her summoned legion of bone dragons used up their strength resisting the fear, and barely had the ability to continue the attack. Otherwise, how could Long Haochen’s group contend against such a formidable undead sovereign? Even in this world of Haoyue’s, the lich king was amongst the top ranked in terms of cultivation.
After suffering an extreme wrath came an ice-coldness. An unspeakable chill spread through the lich king. She could not describe her thoughts right now, but felt that she vaguely sensed the extremely terrifying Austin Griffin of that time seemed to have come back. Just before Haoyue and Long Haochen departed, the instant his six pairs of eyes gazed at her, they left a deep feeling in her memories, and aroused a fear coming from the depths of her soul, going to the extent of directly causing her whole cloak to burn.
