Chapter 96: Zi Yan: God's Graveyard? Could It Be an Opportunity Arranged by the Senior?

On East Dragon Island, the atmosphere was heavy and tense.

The originally clamorous battlefield now held only the groans of the wounded and the low sighs of the survivors.

Had it not been for the fact that some Strongmen had originally remained on East Dragon Island, they would likely have been suppressed in turn by the Dragon Clan of East Dragon Island by now.

Just then, a vast expanse of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

Amid the churning dark clouds, one dragon chant after another emerged.

Immediately after, countless figures were seen shooting out from the dark clouds at high speed — it was the North Dragon King leading the elites of North Dragon Island arriving!

"You all this……"

Upon seeing the miserable state of the South Dragon King and the West Dragon King, a trace of shock instantly flashed through the North Dragon King's eyes.

He had only just brought people over from North Dragon Island and hadn't even had time to go near Lei Chi yet — how did those two end up like this?

The blood hole in the South Dragon King's abdomen was still slowly seeping blood; his face was pale, and he sat half-propped on the ground in utter weakness.

The West Dragon King, meanwhile, already had a crude bandage wrapped around his severed arm, the blood having long since soaked through the bandage.

His expression was gloomy, but his eyes held no anger — instead they carried a trace of deep fear.

If the gap weren't so large, he might still have felt unwillingness.

But the other side's Puppet nearly shattered his body with a single punch.

This difference was simply a world of difference.

He couldn't even muster anger.

"It seems…… that person is indeed terrifyingly strong……"

Not only the North Dragon King — the other Strongmen of North Dragon Island were likewise deeply shocked at this moment.

The South Dragon King and the West Dragon King's strength was comparable to their own North Dragon King's, yet both had been beaten into this state by someone.

Almost lost half their lives!

The North Dragon King secretly rejoiced that he had not impulsively joined the siege earlier.

Otherwise, he might well have met the same fate at this moment.

But immediately after, other thoughts welled up in his heart, and a hard-to-detect strange glint flashed in his eyes.

However, on the surface he still feigned a concerned appearance and quickly came to the two's side.

"What happened to you two? How did you end up injured so severely?"

"Is that person truly that terrifying?"

The South Dragon King gave a bitter smile and shook his head; thinking back now, he even felt that that expert had held back.

Otherwise, not a single one of the Ancient Void Dragons who went this time would have returned alive!

"Not just terrifying — just that guy's Puppet alone, we were fundamentally no match for it."

"That Puppet merely threw one punch, and the West Dragon King ended up like this……"

"Puppet??"

The North Dragon King's eyes flickered, and he looked at the West Dragon King with some shock.

He hadn't expected a single Puppet could take half a life.

"Hmph…… weren't you yourself pierced by a bolt of lightning?"

The West Dragon King also gritted his teeth and glared at the South Dragon King, then explained to the North Dragon King.

"That guy actually refined Huang Tian of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan into a Puppet."

"Huang Tian was already a four-star Dou Zun long ago; judging by that Puppet now, its strength is even more terrifying."

"This arm was indeed crippled by that Puppet Huang Tian."

"Hiss…… this expert is probably several levels stronger than Huang Tian!"

Hearing this, the North Dragon King couldn't help but grow worried.

If Zi Yan truly has such a terrifying backer, then she indeed fears not the Three Dragon Kings.

So, what exactly happened to the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan?

Huang Tian was actually refined into a Puppet by someone……

……

Underground Magma Sea.

This sea region was like a burning purgatory.

Scorching magma boiled, constantly surging and churning.

In the depths, an ordinary Dou Zong would probably be burned until not even slag remained the moment they set foot here.

And in the depths of this Magma Sea Area, a young girl and an old man suddenly appeared out of thin air.

The young girl was precisely Zi Yan; she wore a purple long dress, its hem fluttering in the wind, revealing a pair of fair, delicate jade legs.

At this moment, her exquisite little face was full of puzzlement; she knitted her brows and looked at the old man beside her.

"Third Elder, where is this?"

Zhu Li at this moment also knitted his brows, his eyes equally filled with bewilderment.

"I don't know either."

"But that senior deliberately sent us here; there should be some purpose."

"Then let's go down and take a look."

The two surveyed their surroundings, seeing only endless magma all around.

Suddenly, Zi Yan's sharp eyes caught sight of some dark shadows faintly moving within the magma.

Looking closely, they were actually a group of Flame Lizardmen.

These Flame Lizardmen were covered in red scales, each scale shimmering with scorching light.

They were massive in size, standing over two people tall, and flames spewed from their mouths from time to time.

At this moment, these Flame Lizardmen also discovered Zi Yan and Zhu Li.

Immediately they let out strange cries and charged at them to kill.

The sounds from their mouths were unintelligible to both Zi Yan and Zhu Li.

"Third Elder, there are monsters!"

Seeing the enemy attack first, Zi Yan let out a tender shout and struck out as well.

Right now these Flame Lizardmen were not strong; both Zi Yan and Zhu Li could casually wipe them out.

However, suddenly, the other living Flame Lizardmen immediately tilted their heads back and emitted a wave of sharp, piercing sounds.

It looked as if they were summoning their companions.

"It seems there really is something down here."

Zi Yan thought of Zhu Li's earlier speculation.

Zhu Li also nodded.

At this moment, accompanied by that sharp cry, more and more Flame Lizardmen surged out from the depths of the Magma sea.

"Kill our way down!"

Zi Yan's delicate brows furrowed.

Although these Flame Lizardmen were numerous, for the moment their Cultivation Bases had not surpassed Zi Yan and Third Elder Zhu Li.

So they were still handling them fairly easily.

But as they descended deeper and deeper, the strength of the Flame Lizardmen they encountered was also clearly rising.

Before long they ran into many Dou Zun-level Flame Lizardmen.

However, these Dou Zun Flame Lizardmen were also no match for Zi Yan and Zhu Li.

However, as they drew ever closer to the bottom of the Magma.

The surrounding Magma sea seemed to have begun exuding a faint, terrifying pressure that settled on the two of them.

After killing who knew how many Dou Zun-level Flame Lizardmen, two earth-shaking Roars suddenly rang out from the Magma.

Immediately after, two white Lizardmen whose bodies looked more ancient than ordinary Flame Lizardmen slowly emerged.

These two white Lizardmen emitted an extremely terrifying aura from their entire bodies.

They actually possessed Half-Saint strength.

"Be careful!!"

Zhu Li's face instantly turned grave; he swiftly moved to stand before Zi Yan.

Hands clenched into fists, his Dou Qi circulated to the utmost as he vigilantly stared at the two white Lizardmen.

"Zi Yan, hide behind me; I'll block them."

However, these two white Lizardmen did not attack directly.

One of the white Lizardmen gazed coldly at Zi Yan and Zhu Li and actually spoke.

"Audacious!! You dare trespass into God's Graveyard!!"

"God's Graveyard?"

Zi Yan's heart gave a start.

But immediately after, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

Could it be... this is the reason the senior specially arranged for me to come here?

He did say there was something he needed me to do.

Then now, if he sent me here...

"Down below, there's most likely a great opportunity!"

Excited light flickered in Zi Yan's eyes.
