Chapter 665 - 377: Dragon Soul of Heaven and Earth (Part 2)
"The commotion is coming from over there, it seems like someone is engaging in a magical battle." Lvxing’s face instantly displayed an excited, bloodthirsty expression.
Celestial Demons are most fond of battle, especially the Primordial Celestial Demon, born for war, to die in war.
Without a second thought, Lvxing directly flew towards the direction where the earth veins of the dragon were, his speed surpassing that of an Immortal.
...
The sea waves were sky-high, when the massive waves over ten zhang in height rose, the shock was indescribable. Qin Yuesheng felt the whale beneath him trembling with fear, and couldn’t help but say, "Such a powerful aura, the person causing this commotion must be a formidable figure, with strength likely far exceeding the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top Realm."
Bai Yue looked at the sky, somewhat hesitant: "Perhaps even above the Saint Wheel Realm."
As the giant whale passed through a fog bank, the scene before Qin Yuesheng and his companion suddenly became clear, like a sunny day after rain.
At the same time, the scene before them shocked them into wide-eyed amazement, their hearts and minds shaken.
They saw a massive island rising from the sea, supported by tens of thousands of stone columns like ’roots’. On the island, a nine-clawed Golden Dragon connecting heaven and earth roared, its golden light illuminating the sky, shattering and dispersing all clouds. A few breaths later, the sky was cloudless for ten thousand miles.
On the opposite side of the gigantic nine-clawed Golden Dragon was an extremely small existence. The distance was so great that Qin Yuesheng couldn’t even see the person’s figure clearly, but the power they displayed was terrifying enough to rival the nine-clawed Golden Dragon.
"Are they the source of the evil aura?" Qin Yuesheng asked Bai Yue in surprise.
Bai Yue shook his head: "The evil aura is indeed here, but it doesn’t come from them. Instead, it originates from elsewhere, seemingly from within that island."
The nine-clawed Golden Dragon let out a dragon’s roar, its claw slashed towards Shi Lin’s location. This slash appeared ordinary, yet it contained the mighty power of heaven and earth, as if the entire sky was being sliced apart. A long golden scar thousands of zhang straightly cleaved out, and Shi Lin pressed his palms together, forming a three-layered stone shield before him to block the nine-clawed Golden Dragon’s golden scar.
But the scar showed no intention of stopping, continuing its path and even moving towards where Qin Yuesheng and his companion were.
The scar’s speed was too fast, leaving no time for much reaction. Qin Yuesheng instinctively activated Zhi Chi Tian Ya, escaping from the whale’s back, while Bai Yue also had his own means, transforming into a sword light and swiftly moving several hundred zhang away.
The whale, however, wasn’t so lucky. The scar sliced through it with ease, leaving a trail of blood behind.
The whale didn’t even let out a wail, its massive body instantly split in two, its blood dyeing the East Sea. The two halves of its body slowly sunk to the seabed, becoming a whale fall nourishing all living things.
"Such terrifying power." Qin Yuesheng looked warily at the receding golden scar. If he had been hit directly, he feared that even using the Golden Bell Shield wouldn’t have been enough to block it.
Shi Lin’s brow developed a maroon scar, and he quickly formed hand seals, causing stones from the seabed to emerge and converge around him.
The stones, varying in size, shape, and weight, gathered, fused, and assembled in the air, eventually forming a towering stone giant, though still inferior in size to the nine-clawed Golden Dragon.
Shi Lin’s lower body was embedded in the stone giant’s head, controlling its actions, and he punched directly towards the nine-clawed Golden Dragon.
The punch carried immense force, exceeding tens of millions of pounds. Even before the punch landed, the wind generated by the punch created a massive storm ahead.
The nine-clawed Golden Dragon, a true Dragon Soul of heaven and earth, knew no fear and charged head-on, intending to clash its head against Shi Lin.
The scene resembled a comet striking a planet, the kinetic energy generated by their movement caused monstrous waves around the island, altering the weather dramatically.
Boom!
When the stone giant’s fist collided with the nine-clawed Golden Dragon’s head, the world changed color. Qin Yuesheng only felt his vision brighten as the world lost all color, consumed by a blinding light, making it difficult to see anything.
Lvxing skimmed across the surface of the East Sea, leaving a trail where he passed. Any fish passing through this trail would be instantly crushed by the immense pressure, turning into blood and flesh debris.
"So strong! So strong a presence! How interesting." Lvxing laughed with blood-red eyes, feeling the battle intent in him ignite, yearning for combat with a powerful opponent.
At that moment, a wave of light came surging from ahead. Lvxing didn’t have time to react before crashing headfirst into the wave.
Boom!
Lvxing’s body began to disintegrate, cracks spreading across his skin like a spiderweb, with blood spurting and falling into the sea, contaminating the water.
"Hahaha! This is it, I’m injured, I’m injured!" Despite his injuries, Lvxing felt no fear, growing even more excited, his aura rising stronger and stronger, reaching its peak.
...
Within the island, everything remained unaffected by the outside world, with small animals leisurely grazing and strolling.
Yalan walked on the ground, sensing the location of the evil aura, intending to find the whereabouts of Shen You.
Shen You, as a notorious Immortal in the celestial realm, surviving until now indicated his considerable strength. Yalan didn’t want to expose herself to his view, so she refrained from flying hastily.
"The airfield within the earth veins of the dragon is too chaotic, making the evil aura difficult to detect. It’s time to stop searching aimlessly." Yalan took a Jade Scroll from her bosom and casually inserted it into the ground.
As soon as the Jade Scroll was placed into the ground, spiritual light burst forth, forming a Spirit Array on the ground.
A tender green shoot emerged from the center of the Spirit Array, quickly growing wildly as if it had absorbed a stimulant, spreading numerous branches in all directions.
Like a drop of ink falling into Clear Water, these plants quickly spread across dozens of li.
Yalan’s brow developed a verdant mark, and as it started glowing, everything within reach of the plants’ spread came into Yalan’s view.
Fifty li, a hundred li, five hundred li, a thousand li...
Even after the plants enveloped the entire island, Yalan still couldn’t find anything related to Shen You, as if he wasn’t even on the island.
"Not on the surface." Yalan looked at the ground: "You’re well hidden, I’ll give you that."
As she lifted her finger, all the plants responded like soldiers receiving orders, starting to dig through the soil, burrowing underground into the small island.
...
When Qin Yuesheng opened his eyes, his vision returned to normal. Amazingly, a large area of the sea beneath him was dry, all because the attack from Shi Lin and the nine-clawed Golden Dragon had evaporated the seawater in this region, and the remaining water hadn’t yet flowed in to fill the void, resulting in this scene.
The stone giant that took such a heavy blow had lost much of its stone, appearing battered, but the nine-clawed Golden Dragon seemed unaffected.
"The earth veins of the dragon, truly extraordinary. If I continue at odds with him, leaving Yalan to face Shen You alone, I won’t feel assured." After saying this, Shi Lin suddenly felt a mind flicker, it was a celestial sense.
With a quick calculation, his face lit up with surprise and a hint of joy.
"Perfect timing! Let this one coming in help entangle the Dragon Soul while I go inside the island to support Yalan."
With just a calculation, Shi Lin already knew that Lvxing was on his way here.
That there was a Primordial Celestial Demon’s body hidden in the mortal realm was something even Immortals like Shi Lin hadn’t anticipated. Once the Shen You situation was settled, Lvxing, who occupied the Primordial Celestial Demon’s body, couldn’t be allowed to live, lest he become a threat to the mortal realm and even affect the celestial realm.
