LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 226
Chapter 226
The Emperor’s Son, holding the axe, remained calm and swung it in a mighty strike.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Unexpectedly, the giant axe, powerful enough to split an entire world, barely left a mark on Jiang Chen’s arm. Sparks flew as if the axe had struck divine metal.
“Indeed, the Great Accompishment physique is incredibly resilient!” Seeing that his attack had little effect, the Emperor’s Son frowned.
This outcome was beyond his expectations. He had known that the Great Accompishment physique was exceptionally tough, but he hadn’t anticipated it being this tough. Even an emperor weapon couldn’t cause any harm.
With a thunderous sound, Jiang Chen’s massive hand grabbed the axe and the Emperor’s Son along with it, sending him flying through the air. Without missing a beat, Jiang Chen pursued, crossing the void with his powerful body, and threw another punch.
Boom!
A massive force exploded, launching the Emperor’s Son even farther, shattering the surrounding void. Despite taking dozens of Jiang Chen’s punches head-on, the Emperor’s Son remained unharmed, his body as formidable as ever.
As their fierce battle continued, their powerful exchanges reverberated through the endless void, spilling into the vast starry skies. In the pitch-black space, faint starlight flickered, adding a touch of color to the dark cosmos.
Jiang Chen deliberately led the Emperor’s Son away from the True Dragon World. This was intentional, aimed at keeping the Emperor’s Son occupied and preventing him from providing immediate support. As the two vanished from sight, the once chaotic True Dragon World fell into silence.
What had once been a peaceful, paradise-like realm was now in ruins. Rivers of blood flowed, and broken bones and wreckage littered the land. A thick aura permeated the air—an aura of dragon blood, released in vast quantities.
Dragon blood, being an exceptionally powerful material, was now flowing everywhere as countless True Dragon powerhouses had perished. This blood, once priceless, now soaked the land, drawing greedy stares from the forces present.
Dragon blood was too valuable, whether used to temper the body or to refine medicinal pills. It was an immensely precious material. High-level dragon blood, in particular, was as valuable as a ten-thousand-year-old treasure.
The eyes of many forces gleamed with greed. They desperately wanted to carve up the True Dragon Clan, but the thought of the Emperor’s Son made them hesitate.
“Kill!” Before anyone could act, Huang Tian led the Immortal Phoenix Clan into battle.
Boom!
With their emperor weapon clearing the way, the void melted, forming a massive passage. Countless phoenixes soared across the sky, and golden flames surged like an ocean, descending like the Milky Way spilling over the heavens.
In just a moment, the Immortal Phoenix Clan’s army was at the gates.
“Immortal Phoenix Clan, how dare you!” The remaining True Dragon Clan powerhouses were furious, their blood-red eyes burning with murderous intent.
“Kill!”
Their only response was a single word. Torrents of killing intent burst forth as the Immortal Phoenix Clan descended. The battle that had briefly quieted down in the True Dragon World was once again engulfed in flames of war.
Huang Tian remained calm. This time, once they acted, it would mean eternal enmity with the True Dragon Clan. If the Emperor’s Son survived, the Immortal Phoenix Clan would face dire consequences in the future. Their destruction would be inevitable.
The situation had already reached the point where there was no turning back. The moment they decided to act against the True Dragon Clan, the fate of both races was sealed—only one could survive.
Given this, why not strike first and annihilate the True Dragon Clan?
“What are you all waiting for? If you don’t act now, when will you? Besides, how can a Quasi-Emperor Ninth Stage be a match for a Great Accompishment physique?” Huang Tian’s voice roared through the Nine Heavens.
A skinny camel was still larger than a horse. Though the True Dragon Clan had been severely weakened, their remaining strength couldn’t be underestimated. Even if the Immortal Phoenix Clan destroyed them, they would suffer great losses in the process.
In order to preserve their strength and ensure the involvement of other forces, Huang Tian had to act. He needed to force other races into this fight, ensuring that even if the Emperor’s Son survived, their collective power would be enough to intimidate him.
In essence, Huang Tian was dragging everyone down with him, forcing the other forces to become allies in this war.
The other forces understood this all too well, and some chose to back out immediately. For example, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan did just that. Their clan wasn’t particularly strong, and they couldn’t afford to take sides recklessly. Once they did, there would be no turning back.
Of course, some forces were tempted. After all, the True Dragon Clan’s resources were immensely rich. The rivers of dragon blood alone were enough to make anyone covetous.
“Kill!” The Golden-Winged Roc Clan was the first to take a stance. Known for their fearless nature, how could they not take this chance, especially with a Great Accompishment physique on their side?
“Kill!” The White Tiger Clan hesitated only for a moment before deciding to join in as well.
On the other side, the human forces were deep in discussion.
“Should we join in too?”
“The True Dragon Clan is barely hanging on, and now so many forces are involved. With their Quasi-Emperor tied up, this is the best opportunity!”
The Pure Yang Holy Master’s eyes burned with desire. This was the perfect chance to strike a weakened foe. He was eager to join but knew that this decision wasn’t solely up to the Pure Yang Holy Land—they needed to consider the opinion of the Primordial Holy Land.
“What are we afraid of?”
“Destroy the True Dragon Clan!”
“This is the best chance we’ve had in a million years. We might not get another!”
“If we let the True Dragon Clan recover and the Emperor’s Son survives, the clan will return to the Nine Heavens Realm stronger than ever!”
The Great Qin Emperor, a man of decisive action, was unafraid of the Emperor’s Son’s potential threat. He spoke the truth—this was the best opportunity to annihilate the True Dragon Clan. If they missed this chance, who knew when they’d get another.
“Do it!” Dongfang Mingyue didn’t hesitate long. Her eyes gleamed coldly as she gave the order. This had always been part of the plan.
With Jiang Chen using his Great Accompishment physique to hold off the Emperor’s Son, they could take advantage of the situation and attack the True Dragon Clan. Moreover, it wasn’t just their force at play; even if the Emperor’s Son survived, he would first go after the Immortal Phoenix Clan, not the Primordial Holy Land.
Boom!
As time passed, more and more forces joined the fray. The waves of emperor weapons continually resurfaced, each revival of their power filling the air with a crushing aura.
Facing the combined assault of almost all the immortal forces, the True Dragon Clan, despite their strength, was utterly overwhelmed by the onslaught.
Boom!
The True Dragon Clan’s second emperor weapon fully awakened. The will of an emperor arose, and its supreme aura swept across the sky. But it was soon met by the power of more than ten emperor weapons, which pressed down upon it, forcibly trapping the emperor’s will within a void.
In the past, the Immortal Phoenix Clan had used four emperor weapons to grind down the will of the Soaring Snake Emperor. Now, with more than ten emperor weapons at play, the emperor’s will had no room to act at all.
“Emperor’s will? What a joke! Did you think the emperor’s will could save you?” Jin Yuan sneered, his arrogance on full display.
“Today’s hatred will be repaid a hundredfold when the Emperor’s Son proves his Dao!” A Saint Realm expert of the True Dragon Clan wept blood, his eyes filled with hatred so deep it seemed tangible, spreading across the heavens. But soon, a giant hand slapped down, erasing him in an instant.
“Proving the Dao? Whether your Emperor’s Son survives is still in question!” Huang Tian responded indifferently, his voice cold.
Without their overwhelming power, even a hegemonic force like the True Dragon Clan could not escape their fate. They were like a wounded lion, helpless as vultures and wolves tore them apart, devouring their strength.
Faced with all this, the True Dragon Clan was powerless.
“Get out!” The Emperor’s Son, filled with boundless rage, roared toward the heavens, his anger uncontrollable. Countless divine abilities erupted from him as the stars shattered and the galaxies trembled, as if the entire Nine Heavens Realm was on the brink of destruction.
As he watched the True Dragon World being besieged, the emperor’s will suppressed by ten emperor weapons, and his kin falling one by one, the Emperor’s Son’s fury knew no bounds. The killing intent surged, threatening to destroy everything in its path.
Yet no matter how furious he became, a towering figure stood before him, blocking his way, preventing him from advancing. All he could do was watch helplessly as his clan was annihilated. One after another, the True Dragons exploded in the void, their blood staining the sky.
“Emperor’s Son, you must avenge us!”
“Emperor’s Son, you must prove the Dao and make these forces pay!”
“Emperor’s Son, take revenge!”
“Emperor’s Son!”
Countless voices of grief and rage echoed, filling the Emperor’s Son’s heart with an unbearable coldness.
