Chapter 524
"Dragon, dragon…"
Although the divine dragon had not yet appeared, everyone understood.
A colossal beast with such a pair of eyes could be none other than the divine dragon.
Roar!
A fierce gust of air scattered all the smoke and dust, followed by a thunderous roar.
The divine dragon had already flown out from Long Yin Ku, hovering in the air to gaze down upon the valley.
It saw the soaring-dragon diagram wrought in fresh blood upon the ground, and the Chamu clansfolk kneeling on the earth, gazing up at it with longing.
The divine dragon roared once more, its voice brimming with fury.
"Hall Master Shangguan, quickly use the 'Thunder Fire Bomb'!"
Xuanwu Shangren, seeing the dragon's might was such, realized the gap between himself and this divine dragon was vast,
and in fear, immediately ordered Shangguan Yun to deploy the "Thunder Fire Bomb"!
"No rush! That evil dragon is high in the heavens, at least a thousand paces away from us."
"At such a distance, I can't guarantee the 'Thunder Fire Bomb' will work."
Shangguan Yun shook his head and instructed,
"I'd best trouble you few to go fight the evil dragon and draw it down as much as possible."
"Afterward I'll strike with the 'Thunder Fire Bomb' and blast this evil dragon to death."
"This…"
The Wudazhang Sect leaders exchanged glances; this divine dragon looked majestic and extraordinary, while they were at most at the Heavenly Being Realm in cultivation.
How could they dare to fight a divine dragon that surpassed all mortals.
But at this moment, there truly was no other way.
Lei Zhenzi was the first to shoot up into the sky, flying toward the divine dragon.
The other four gritted their teeth, stamped their feet, and followed as well.
Only Shangguan Yun hid among the crowd, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to the divine dragon.
The strength of this divine dragon was clearly extraordinary.
Even as the Wudazhang Sect leaders attacked together, it paid them no heed at all.
A sweep of its dragon claws, and gale-force winds howled.
A swing of its dragon tail, and mists drifted and swirled.
Every movement stirred heaven and earth to answer.
Truly a spirit among divine creatures; this divine dragon's strength was at the very least the supreme Mythical Realm.
The highest among the Wudazhang Sect leaders was Qiu Tangbai, merely at mid Heavenly Being Realm.
Fighting together, in no more than two exchanges, all five were sent flying to the ground.
Having repelled the five, the divine dragon also swayed its body and surged downward.
The moment it moved, boundless clouds and mists spread out.
As if the very heavens were about to crash down.
The disciples of the Liudamen Sect, seeing the Wudazhang Sect leaders defeated so easily and the divine dragon's might so fearsome,
no longer remembered that Shangguan Yun had a "Thunder Fire Bomb" in hand,
thinking only that if the divine dragon truly arrived, everyone would die.
In an instant, the disciples of the Liudamen Sect could no longer be controlled, scrambling over one another to flee the canyon.
Shangguan Yun deliberately crouched, secretly preparing to activate the "Thunder Fire Bomb" to slay the divine dragon.
Just as the divine dragon came howling in, already about a hundred paces above the canyon,
"Go—"
Shangguan Yun gathered all his power into the "Thunder Fire Bomb" and hurled it with all his might.
The "Thunder Fire Bomb" was like a meteor, racing toward the divine dragon.
Just as it was about to strike the divine dragon, high in the sky a monk who looked like a child suddenly appeared.
This monk gently stretched out his hand and actually caught the "Thunder Fire Bomb" brimming with true essence.
Then he dispelled the true essence and, cherishing and valuing it greatly, tucked the "Thunder Fire Bomb" straight into his robe.
Most crucially, for some unknown reason the divine dragon kept thrashing and roaring behind him.
Yet toward the monk, who was right before it, it seemed to look without seeing.
"Who are you?"
Although the divine dragon seemed to have been subdued, his own "Thunder Fire Bomb" had also been wasted.
Shangguan Yun glared at the monk with ill intent, guessing at his identity.
"This humble monk is Lianhua Sheng!"
The newcomer was naturally none other than the Great Yuan's current chief state-protector, Living Buddha Lianhua Sheng.
As he spoke, Long Xiang Seng slowly revealed himself behind him.
Only the whereabouts of Monk Naomo and Monk Huanxi were unknown.
"So it's the Great Yuan State Preceptor!"
The moment Shangguan Yun heard this, alarm rose sharply in his heart.
Was this not a case of himself as the mantis stalking the cicada, only to let the Great Yuan be the oriole behind?
"Has the State Preceptor come also for the Long Zhu in Long Yin Ku?"
Living Buddha Lianhua Sheng, accompanied by Long Xiang Seng, descended slowly to the floor of the canyon,
"No! The Dayuan must have the Long Yin Cave and the Dragon Pearl."
Good heavens!
Not only does he want the Dragon Pearl, he also wants the Long Yin Cave?
Shangguan Yun felt his head was about to explode with rage!
He had schemed so much behind the scenes, and obtained the Blood End from a mysterious person.
He had won over the Liudamen Sect, and then secretly poisoned the Chamu tribe.
After doing all this dirty, grueling work, the moment came to harvest the fruit.
And this Dayuan shamelessly pipes up that he wants it all?
The Long Yin Cave, the Dragon Pearl, and even his own "Thunder Fire Bombs" thrown in?
I've seen shameless people, but never anyone this shameless!
But Shangguan Yun could sense that even the Long Xiang Seng standing behind the Lotus Living Buddha,
was far beyond his own ability.
Not to mention the Lotus Living Buddha himself, who stood there looking utterly composed, directly caught his full-force strike,
casually dispersed his true essence, and pocketed the "Thunder Fire Bombs."
"Living Buddha, you're going too far."
Lei Zhenzi, however, failed to read the situation and ran over to argue,
"We were the ones who opened this Long Yin Cave, this evil dragon was also—"
Dragon Elephant Palm!
The Long Xiang Seng showed no mercy, suddenly slapping a palm toward Lei Zhenzi.
Behind him, true essence transformed into a dragon and an elephant, then merged into his palm technique.
Lei Zhenzi was caught off guard and tried to dodge.
But when the Long Xiang Seng struck, how could he possibly give him a chance to escape?
The moment the palm shot out, it sealed off all the space around him; with insufficient cultivation, he couldn't even move.
Lei Zhenzi didn't even have time to scream before the Long Xiang Seng's palm blasted him into a pulp of meat.
"Anyone else?"
After blasting Lei Zhenzi to death, the Long Xiang Seng swept his gaze around, casting a hostile look at the remaining Wudazhang Sect.
The Wudazhang Sect, including Shangguan Yun, looked at one another, none daring to step forward again.
Lei Zhenzi might have been the weakest of the six in Wu Gong, but even Shangguan Yun had no confidence he could kill him in a single strike.
For the Long Xiang Seng to accomplish this already showed his strength far surpassed that of the Liudazhang Sect.
