Chapter 1713: The Heavenly Dragon Suppresses Two Foes

Boom!

Two dragon claws, like pillars holding up the heavens, descended from the sky, tearing the earth apart, flattening the towering, perilous mountain ranges. The terrifying shockwave of energy ravaged the world, and even the distant sea regions were stirred up into waves tens of thousands of zhang high.

Such a commotion drew countless powerful experts of the Dragon Domain to gaze at one another in horror.

And when they saw Ao Yan and the Dark Yin Underworld King pinned dead beneath those enormous dragon claws, an even greater storm of shock surged in their hearts.

After all, these were no ordinary King-tier experts—both were at the peak of the Three-Crowned King tier. One was the Grand Elder of the Dragon Clan, the other the Dark Yin Underworld King, ranked second among the thirteen Underworld Kings of the Guiyi Society!

Such strength, such status—within the current ten great Outer Shenzhou, they were giants standing at the very peak!

Yet now, both had been suppressed by the Heavenly Dragon that Li Luo had transformed into, by his own power alone.

What a magnificent, dazzling feat of battle was this?!

If such a feat were to spread, it would surely shake and draw the attention of every alliance across the ten great Outer Shenzhou.

Countless gazes of awe and horror couldn't help but follow those heaven-supporting dragon claws upward. There, within the thick clouds of the firmament, the endless silhouette of a colossal dragon flickered in and out of view. An indescribable ancient, magnificent aura emanated from that dragon form, sweeping across the world.

At this moment, every bloodline within the Dragon Clan couldn't help but feel an impulse to prostrate themselves in worship.

The feeling was as if they were beholding a Li Li Tianwang-tier expert of their own clan.

At this moment, the void suddenly shattered, and two figures burst out into the air. Above their heads, three layers of King Crowns breathed out vast origin energy, shielding their bodies.

Those were Li Li Tianji and Lin Miao, who had previously been trapped inside the Sky-Swallowing Bag by the Dark Yin Underworld King.

The two expended some tricks before finally managing to escape from the Sky-Swallowing Bag.

But the moment they appeared, they saw at a glance the black dragon and demon toad struggling madly beneath those two heaven-supporting dragon claws. Their pupils shrank sharply, and an expression of horror couldn't help but surface on their faces.

"Ao Yan and Dark Yin have actually been suppressed?! Could it be that Zhen Linshuang has gotten free?"

They had previously crossed hands with Dark Yin, and naturally understood how strong the other was. The peak of the Three-Crowned King tier was enough to rank among the very top of the present age; even the two of them working together could only protect themselves against him. Yet now, the moment they had just broken free from the Sky-Swallowing Bag, they saw Ao Yan and Dark Yin suppressed at the same time. Within the current Dragon Clan, the only one capable of this was probably Zhen Linshuang, who had reached the absolute peak.

But very quickly, they sensed something was off, because the energy waves emanating from those heaven-supporting dragon claws were not from Zhen Linshuang.

On the contrary...

It seemed to come from Li Luo!

But how could Li Luo have achieved this? Although he was at the peak of the unparalleled eighth-grade, at most his combat power was only somewhat stronger than an ordinary Three-Crowned King like them. How could he possibly suppress two peak Three-Crowned Kings by his own strength alone?

While the two were inwardly shocked, the thick clouds above their heads parted, and a mysterious, majestic Heavenly Dragon head slowly emerged from deep within the clouds. Between the dragon's brow, a single straight, sharp ancient dragon horn flowed with an ancient aura, making it appear all the more imposing and majestic.

"Li Luo?!"

Li Li Tianji and Lin Miao stared at that ancient Heavenly Dragon head, and both were visibly shaken. Especially the former—he was quite familiar with the Heavenly Dragon form Li Luo had transformed into before, but the Heavenly Dragon Li Luo had become now was clearly different from before.

That Heavenly Dragon aura had become denser, purer, and more ancient.

"This is... the legendary Ancestral Dragon Physique?! Li Luo actually forged it?"

Li Li Tianji sucked in a breath of cold air, muttering to himself.

As the head of a branch mountain of the Li Li Tianwang bloodline, Li Li Tianji naturally possessed extensive knowledge of the Dragon Clan. This Ancestral Dragon Physique was the most powerful fleshly body of the Dragon Clan; even looking across the Dragon Clan's long history, the number of Dragon Clan ancestors who had managed to cultivate the Ancestral Dragon Physique could be counted on one's fingers.

And without exception, every one of those ancestors who had cultivated the Ancestral Dragon Physique ultimately advanced to Li Li Tianwang.

At the same time, Li Li Tianji had also never heard of anyone of human blood cultivating the Ancestral Dragon Physique.

Therefore, Li Luo's step could be said to have pioneered a new precedent.

But Li Luo had no time to spare for the shock of the two. His dragon eyes fixed on the black dragon and demon toad suppressed beneath his dragon claws. At this moment, Ao Yan and Dark Yin were letting out mad roars, unleashing their terrifying origin power with everything they had. And under their desperate struggling, the Heavenly Dragon claws pressing down were gradually being shaken.

After all, these were two peak Three-Crowned Kings, not ordinary characters.

But Li Luo's dragon eyes, suffused with ancient colored light, did not ripple because of it. With a single thought, vast, endless crystalline phase power swept out from within his body.

That was the power of a super ninth-grade crystalline phase!

The crystalline light spread, illuminating Li Luo's massive dragon body until it resembled a vast crystalline sun. The dazzling, resplendent radiance was clearly visible even tens of thousands of li away.

The crystalline phase power transformed into two torrential rivers descending from the heavens, within which the power of rank faintly emerged.

Boom!

In the end, the two crystalline phase torrents swept down, transforming into two towering, immense crystalline mountains that enveloped the massive forms of the black dragon Ao Yan had become and the demon toad the Dark Yin Underworld King had become.

Crystalline phase power was inherently adept at sealing. Now, fused into the super ninth-grade tier through Li Luo's merging of all phases, and aided by the power of rank he had channeled, it formed an extremely powerful seal, completely sealing away Ao Yan and Dark Yin.

The colossal crystalline mountains stood between heaven and earth, each inscribed with an ancient character for "seal." Upon that character flowed the power of rank.

Within them, the black dragon and demon toad seemed to have frozen in place; only within their eyes did a color of terror spread.

Because they knew that the seal Li Luo had formed by pouring out everything he had was enough to trap them here completely!

If no outside force intervened, this seal would be enough to imprison them for decades!

And once the Dragon Clan had quelled the chaos of this incident—especially once the Outer Shenzhou Assembly also stepped in—the ending awaiting them would undoubtedly be certain death!

An immeasurable regret welled up in the heart of the Dark Yin Underworld King. The Guiyi Society had been stirring up trouble across the ten great Outer Shenzhou for countless years, and almost every time they had been able to complete their schemes and escape smoothly. Yet now, when it came to him, he had encountered a jinx and a variable like Li Luo.

For now, he could only hope that the Guiyi Society's side would be able to reach out and rescue him.

"Branch Head Li Tianji, Palace Master Lin Miao, please help me guard these two sealed crystalline mountains. These two absolutely cannot be allowed to be rescued by the Guiyi Society." At this moment, Li Luo turned his dragon head toward Li Li Tianji and Lin Miao and spoke.

This time he had poured out everything he had, relying on the Ancestral Dragon Physique and the ancestral soul power of this Ten Thousand Dragon Ruins, to suppress and seal the two. If these two were to perish here, even given the Guiyi Society's foundations afterward, it would be an enormous blow to them.

This was also what Li Luo wanted to see. The Guiyi Society was a malignant tumor to the extreme, fanning the flames everywhere, yet they repeatedly succeeded. In the past, his strength had been insufficient to pose a threat to them, but from now on, things would be different!

Li Li Tianji and Lin Miao also understood this point, so they immediately agreed. Then their bodies transformed into streams of light, descending directly onto the peaks of the two sealed crystalline mountains. Above their heads, three layers of King Crowns poured down vast origin energy, completely enveloping the two crystalline mountains, leaving Ao Yan and the others not the slightest chance of escape.

At this point, Ao Yan and the Dark Yin Underworld King had completely lost all means of struggle.

Li Luo placed Li Hongyou beside the Eight-Tailed Heavenly Wolf. The latter was now on the verge of death, its entire body of flesh and blood eroded by poisonous qi. It had previously risked its life to charge into the poison ring formed by the origin power of Ao Yan and the Dark Yin Underworld King. If its physical body had not been somewhat tough, it would have already perished.

Li Luo opened his dragon mouth, and a piece of golden shattered crystal flew out as a stream of light. The shattered crystal was formed from the remnants of the Ancestral Blood Dragon Crystal that Zhen Linshuang had previously given him. This object had condensed within his body and had also been tempered by the power of rank transformed from his Myriad Phases Wheel.

The Ancestral Blood shattered crystal landed on the Eight-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's brow, gradually embedding itself within, and finally forming a golden vertical eye on its forehead.

Vast energy surged into the Eight-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's body, beginning to expel the poisonous qi within it. At the same time, the Ancestral Blood gradually merged with its own Heavenly Wolf bloodline, ultimately causing the fur on its body to shed, slowly transforming into layers of purple-gold dragon scales that covered its four limbs.

The Eight-Tailed Heavenly Wolf dropped to its forelimbs before Li Luo, prostrating itself on the ground in worship, and spoke excitedly in human tongue: "Many thanks, Master."

It clearly knew that, having obtained this opportunity, it was not far from the King tier.

Li Luo gave it a slight nod, then raised his head to look at the most intense and terrifying battlefield in the firmament above.

That was where Zhen Linshuang clashed with the Joyful Desire Demon King.

The fighting there was even more vicious than his battles with Ao Yan, the Dark Yin Underworld King.

Li Luo's gaze locked onto the Joyful Desire Demon King, a fierce and ruthless glint surfacing in his eyes. In this great battle, merely suppressing and sealing Ao Yan and the Dark Yin Underworld King was not enough — this Joyful Desire Demon King was the true main event.

If he could slay or seal him here, that would truly be a feat that shook the landscape of the Ten Great Outer Shenzhou.

When the time came for the "Contention of Withering and Flourishing," losing one of the Ten Evil Demon Kings would undoubtedly greatly ease the pressure on the Ten Great Outer Shenzhou.

At this thought, Li Luo's massive form suddenly shot skyward, charging straight into the battle circle between Zhen Linshuang and the Joyful Desire Demon King.

"Patriarch Zhen, I've come to aid you!"
