Chapter 2104: Drawing the Sword

~12 min read 2,243 words

"The Thirteen-Ring Shushi of the Dawn Church, 'Hand of Radiance', is not here."

The witch made a judgment at a glance:

"That gentleman is probably in the city. It is not clear what the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 wants to do tonight. He is sitting in the city, and it looks like he is not needed here."

The three dragons were indeed abnormal, because the distance was too far, so it was temporarily impossible to judge the size, but one of them was a real bone dragon, another had three three-colored heads spraying flames, and the other had three pairs of wings of different sizes.

And what was more critical was that although Xia De could not see, Miss Lei Qianya, whose eyesight was more outstanding, saw it quite clearly:

"There is a person standing on the head of each of the three dragons."

"Dragon Knight... does this count as a fairy tale becoming reality?"

Xia De felt funny about this, but Miss Lei Qianya shook her head seriously;

"It is mentioned in the secret legends and records passed down by the seven major families: the arrival of the dragon rider in Moon Bay is the initial omen of destruction."

"Hmm... look over there, what is that?"

On the surging sea, accompanied by a faint light, a huge ghost ship pierced through the storm and came. Even though Xia De was still on the shore, he could feel the whisper element that was almost about to turn into substance and sting his skin.

This was some kind of artifact, and its power would not be lower than the Sage-level artifact 【Fish Bone Pirate Ship】 he had encountered before.

"The cultists summoned an artifact, we don't need to worry, the church has a way to deal with it. But what to do now?"

Miss Lei Qianya asked from the side, and Xia De's gaze moved away from the green light in the distance on the sea:

"Did you hear the dragon roar?"

"Of course I can hear it."

She pointed to the sky, but Xia De shook his head. He clearly heard the dragon roar coming from under the water at this moment. The surging sea in front of him reminded him of the sea area where the 【Sea of No Light】 was located, and as the tide constantly slapped, while taking the natural rhythm as some kind of melody, the dragon roar was really being transmitted into his ears from below the sea surface:

"I found the target, you wait for me on the shore, I want to..."

He said he was about to go, but the witch grabbed his hand and did not intend to let go at all. Looking back at her, she did not speak, just looked at him stubbornly. Xia De saw many emotions in those eyes, and after hesitating for a while, he nodded:

"Follow me closely, must pay attention to safety."

Holding hands, with the help of Phantom Body Curse and Red Butterfly Illusion, the two broke through the church's defense and reconnaissance rituals again. After arriving at the end of the unoccupied pier, Xia De sprinkled a pinch of bone powder, and then the dilapidated small wooden boat floated up from under the waves.

Miss Lei Qianya did not have time to ask what kind of strange strange art this was, and was pulled by Xia De to walk onto the boat. Without anyone rowing, the boat kept steady in the gale and storm and rowed towards the direction away from the coastline. In the stormy waves, the small boat was like an inconspicuous leaf.

In order to cast spells to defend against the fireballs falling from the sky, Miss Lei Qianya canceled the effect of the Phantom Body Curse. The rain quickly wet her hair and clothes, but she was still tense and chanting, adding various positive gain effects such as "Ocean's Luck," "Water Thorn Aura," and "Defend Evil" to the boat.

After dealing with these, the small boat had completely moved away from the shore. The slightly undulating boat made the witch shrink her body and sit down. Although the effect of the overall Phantom Body Curse had disappeared, in such a pitch-black long night, no one noticed this inconspicuous small boat on the sea.

She watched the coastline move away, and only then did she have time to turn from the stern to look at Xia De, curious why he hadn't spoken for a long time. But what she saw first when turning around was a touch of golden light, and then she saw the man standing at the bow of the boat as if to meet the darkness and the storm, with yellow-gold light marks like fire embers appearing on his hem.

In an instant, she almost felt that her heart had stopped beating, and even regarded this man standing at the bow as something indescribable. But blinking, everything in her field of vision returned to normal.

"Illusion?"

Although she thought so in her heart, the action of gasping for air as if she couldn't breathe told her that the fleeting glimpse just now was her powerful inspiration playing a role again.

Xia De also turned to look at her at this time, with uncontrollable excitement on his face. The dragon roars coming from under the water one after another were transmitted directly into his soul. As the thunder exploded more frequently above his head, he could almost feel the familiar power that existed here, in the seal of the ocean gods. It was not the dragon roar guiding him, but the power of the three ocean gods he had absorbed, which was resonating with some kind of seal.

And what was more critical was that the power of divinity was resonating with him. Although he didn't know how to obtain that power, Xia De was very sure that he would definitely get it:

"I'm going into the sea in a while, you wait for me on the boat."

This time the blonde witch did not object, but nodded gently, suppressing her premonition about what was about to happen:

"The situation is a bit wrong. I just divined again. Those cultists will probably summon something terrible in a while. That is something more terrifying than a dragon. We must leave as soon as possible."

Although the waves were surging, the wind was howling, and the rain and snow were mixed, she felt that her heart at this moment was calmer than in the quiet room for meditation, and the vague future destiny was manifesting secrets to her. She felt that the man in front of her was about to do something big, but she also felt extreme danger.

"Alright, I'll act as soon as possible."

Closing his eyes to sense the power that was almost close at hand, Xia De suddenly opened his eyes again and looked at another small boat that appeared on the pitch-black sea not far away.

That was not the ghost ship he saw on the shore just now. That ghost ship had already been expelled by some ritual of the church and was wandering in the sea area further away. The small boat not far away was no bigger than the boat Xia De summoned, and the edges of the wooden boat were full of wriggling water plants, and there were only two people on the boat.

An old man who looked like a priest sat in the back holding a compass, and the man standing alone at the bow had a pair of dragon horns on his head.

When his vertical pupils looked at Xia De who was also standing at the bow, Xia De even felt that what was looking at him at this moment was a real dragon.

The witch behind him wanted to stand up, but was blocked by Xia De again. Miss Lei Qianya's voice carried anxiety in the rain:

"That seems to be the Eleven-Ring 'Dragon Devourer' Hal Wesley of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】. This person is very famous. He is a Dragon-born Ringed Shushi himself. Although he is Eleven-Ring, he is definitely much stronger than me."

"I have encountered quite a few cult groups, this is the first time I have seen a real Dragon-born Ringed Shushi."

After all, compared to Dragon-born, Xia De thought Fiona was actually a humanoid red dragon.

Xia De said softly, his eyes passing through the rain curtain to look at the man at the bow of the opposite boat. Just as he could almost be sure that the other party was also here for the traces of the God War, Xia De believed that the cultists also already knew his purpose.

White light passed through the high sky, and in the interval of the dragon roar, the loudest thunder sound so far made the sea water vibrate. The white light of lightning illuminated the two men standing at the bows of the two boats respectively. Neither of them used an umbrella, and both were watching each other.

The Eleven-Ring life ring appeared in the steam mist first, and the core spiritual runes "Enlightenment-Dragon," "Enlightenment-Gluttony," and "Enlightenment-Piety" made Xia De frown slightly.

In his ordinary state, he of course couldn't beat the other party, but at this moment, the power of divinity was resonating with him. As time passed, the radiance of divinity was gradually waking up from the dormant state inside his soul. The radiance of divinity drove the power of the soul. The golden afterglow that the witch saw just now was of course not an illusion, and under the agitation of this power, Xia De already understood what he had learned from the high-level strange art taught by the witch.

Lei Sheng light flashed in the high sky again, and even the dragons and high-level Ringed Shushis fighting in the high sky appeared incomparably small in front of this natural greatness. The Eleven-Ring Shushi at the bow gradually ascended, and the blurred shadow of a dragon head flashed in the darkness behind him.

Xia De reached out to his back, hesitated after touching the Dragon Scale Sword, and changed to grasp the hilt of 【Night Watcher】.

The Great Witch of Fate no longer tried to persuade Xia De to escape at this moment. Her extremely sensitive inspiration felt the power appearing in the depths of the man's body and soul who was standing with his back to her, which made her almost suffocated.

Until this moment, a corner of Xia De's life ring appeared in the bell sound drowned in the thunder. The 【Space-Time】 spiritual rune flashed with spiritual light, and the fingertips he touched the hilt of the sword blew with the wind, and the first crack appeared on the surface of the skin. In the crack was the golden radiance that Bella Lei Qianya did not even dare to look directly at:

"What on earth is he..."

Behind the Dragon-born in the sky, a total of seven huge pitch-black dragon heads completely turned into reality. They gathered in a circle together, and the violent spirit and elements gathered together in their mouths and formed a huge pitch-black light ball. But Xia De did not try to interrupt the other party's energy accumulation, but continued to maintain the posture of drawing the sword, allowing his own soul to produce a more violent resonance with the divinity existing in this place.

Crack!

The Great Witch of Fate raised her head abruptly, surprised to see a pitch-black lightning appear in the high sky. Behind the clouds where the lightning passed, the phantom of the dragon meeting the giant flashed across the high clouds, as if the pitch-black lightning broke through the interval of time and space. Not only her, but everyone in the nearby sea area and the pier almost felt a pressure more terrifying than dragons, more terrifying than any mortal creature, after this abnormal pitch-black lightning.

The seal of the god was being touched by Xia De, and that pitch-black lightning was just a slight reaction caused by it. Confirming that it was impossible for him to absorb the divinity that did not know where it was out of thin air, Xia De still did not make a move in advance.

He maintained the posture of drawing the sword. The light ball in the mouths of the huge dragon heads behind the Eleven-Ring Shushi in the sky became larger and larger, and the pitch-black lightning that struck down in the night sky, which had turned into a blizzard, also became more and more terrifying.

The dragons and humans who were originally flying in the high sky had to descend to avoid it, which also made them discover the two small boats confronting each other in the near sea.

The small wooden boat locked by the huge dragon head had nowhere to hide, but the witch on the boat did not care about the threat of falling at all at this moment, but looked at Xia De at the bow in shock, looking at the golden radiance flowing along his fingertips, making the cloth binding the long sword seem to ignite with golden flames in the wind.

Golden embers touched her cheeks along the wind, and the witch shuddered violently. Then, in the deafening dragon roar, she saw the dragon heads appearing in the sky finally spit out that fatal light ball towards the sea surface where they were. ===== CHAPTER 2105 =====
