Crack crack—!!!
Thunder rumbled across the high heavenly dome as leaden clouds swirled and the flying snow howled! The Grand Canal’s tidal waters surged, throwing up waves as massive as avalanches!
Hand-sized snowflakes drifted down from the ink-black cloud layers, punctuated by the roar of winter thunder echoing from behind the storm! As the most expansive man-made waterway within the Dajing Border, the river was steeped in the divinity of countless mysterious temples, infusing every drop with divine power. Because of this, the great river remained unfrozen even amidst the most brutal, freezing snows of winter!
Warships of the court army, crafted from nine-layered Profound Iron Spirit Wood, sat anchored at the riverbank, their massive chains encased in ice and draped with icicles. Yet, as the river water crashed against the hulls—which were etched with fierce, terrifying, and cruel patterns—violent waves were stirred into a frenzy!
And hidden beneath the surface of the river...
A colossal shadow lurked, dwarfing the warships themselves. Vaguely visible through the flickering light of heaven and earth, this overwhelmingly imposing silhouette stretched over ten zhang along the riverbed. In truth, ten zhang was merely the size the creature maintained while restraining its form; should it unleash its full power, its scale could reach a hundred or even a thousand zhang!
This gargantuan beast was the pinnacle of the Dragon God Clan—the Dragon God Crown Prince! He held the ninth rank on the Great Supervising Minister’s Heavenly Gate ranking!
Rumble—!!!
For reasons unknown, the river suddenly erupted with booming surges. White waves rolled as scorching currents of air gushed from the depths. In the murky darkness of the river bottom, countless water plants writhed and twisted.
Suddenly, enormous dragon eyes flashed with a brilliant, piercing light...
"You are..."
"Bull Demon?!"
The eyes of the Dragon God Crown Prince snapped open, his heart trembling with shock! The Netherworld Ox Demon?! Why would such a being manifest before him? What was his objective?
"Zhao Beidou, the Divine Tribulation Cultivator, claimed... didn't he say he had slaughtered all the fierce entities of the underworld?"
Hadn't even the primary stronghold of the underworld, the Fengdu City Small Cave Heaven, been annihilated by him? How could the Netherworld Ox Demon possibly appear now?
Before him stood a towering silhouette with arms crossed. Long black hair danced wildly in the current like strikes of black lightning, shattering the surrounding water into a fine spray. Simply by floating there, his boiling, scorching qi-blood pressured the Dragon God Crown Prince, as if the true forms of a dragon and elephant were perched behind the Bull Demon, staring down at a mere loach.
The Dragon God Crown Prince’s mind struggled to comprehend the situation, but a sudden, intense sense of crisis caused his scales to flare. Heat erupted frantically from his body as his massive draconic form prepared to strike.
But...
The towering Bull Demon, immovable as a Mountain, slowly reached out. He pressed his hand firmly down upon the dragon’s head. His five fingers clenched tight!
Nine strands of Angry Dragon muscles, fierce and trembling, rippled across the Bull Demon’s broad back. Terrifying power detonated as his mercury-like blood surged with violence!
Boom—!!!
Countless water streams exploded instantly. Simultaneously, a portal as black as ink manifested behind the Bull Demon. With a single flick of his wrist, the Dragon God Crown Prince’s massive body was swung with brute force and hurled into the dark gateway—a gash torn into the human world by the Netherworld itself!
The portal, resembling a famished nightmare, opened its maw and completely consumed the Dragon God Crown Prince’s immense divinity.
In the distance, the three slumbering Dragon Sons were jolted awake! The very moment the Dragon God Crown Prince’s aura flickered out, they snapped into consciousness! However, they were greeted only by the Bull Demon’s ruthless approach. With a single step, he collapsed the water into a massive cavity, seizing the Dragon Sons and hurling them like cannonballs. One by one, held by his massive hands, they were subjected to a force they could not resist and were swallowed by the gates of Mo City Fengdu.
Above the river, a Heaven and Earth chessboard silently unfurled, masking their desperate struggles and ensuring not a single breath of their presence leaked out.
On the riverbank, within the court army’s encampment...
Gu Qianchi, who was meditating inside a Divine Talisman Array to shield himself from the Heaven and Earth Will’s Three Calamities, and the recovering Zhao Beidou both felt a vague disturbance in their Heaven and Earth Souls. It was an instinctive, subconscious premonition of danger.
The two opened their eyes and scanned the area with their Heaven and Earth Souls, yet they found nothing out of the ordinary. The world remained still; the snowstorm raged on, and the river continued its flow.
...
...
Mo City, Fengdu!
Whish—!!!
Although Mo City had not been fully restored to its peak state, the shattered space and cracked earth within the city had already mended. Its resilience and strength had ascended to a new level!
Rumble!
An explosive roar erupted, causing all of Mo City to tremble slightly. The rainwater accumulated on the ground was instantly jolted into the air, bursting into massive splashes. The ten-zhang long body of the Dragon God Crown Prince slithered and thrashed against the ground.
"Roar—!!!"
A piercing dragon chant rang out as massive amounts of qi-blood and demon energy intertwined fiercely. The Dragon God Crown Prince was consumed by a mixture of shock and incandescent rage! Within his belly, a light began to bloom—the Dragon Emperor Pearl was fully activated, radiating a brilliant glow. The Dragon God Crown Prince’s aura surged upward, instantly surpassing the limits of a top-level peak and reaching the realm of a half-step Dragon God!
