The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 577: Chapter 571: Wait for the Right Time to Act

“Save… save me!”

By the time the Heaven Ghost arrived at the battlefield with the Heaven-Demon Guard and the local garrison troops, they found the previously domineering and defiant Heaven Dragon Ghost Immortal pinned down by the Unborn Void God, covered with numerous wounds.

A sharp and lethal bone was still stuck in the shoulder of the Heaven Dragon, which not even the terrifying specter of a fiercely burning fire dragon could evaporate, showing signs of imminent peril.

In the face of the Heaven Dragon Deity’s cry for help, even the battle-hardened Heaven Ghost, widely-traveled and knowledgeable, was left somewhat stupefied.

A Venerable Ghost Immortal in the later stages of power actually shedding all pride to loudly cry for help in public—such a sight was unheard of in the vast Umbral!

“It seems this old guy, the Heaven Dragon, really is on his last legs!” Not a trace of ridicule flickered in the Heaven Ghost’s eyes—instead, they grew even more somber.

Dragged down by the large army behind him, his march was not as fast as the Heaven Dragon’s, yet it had taken him only fifteen minutes to reach the battlefield.

As a colleague, though the Heaven Ghost did not fancy the Heaven Dragon’s seniority complex and arrogant nature, he still fully acknowledged his strength.

A mere Demon God Avatar—by all logic, it shouldn’t have been able to force him into such straits!

“Clang!”

Like thunder and a fierce gale, the divine sword at his waist unsheathed itself.

The Heaven Ghost took the Dragon Blood Sword in hand, and the crimson blade erupted with the anomaly of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. An endless surge of malevolent aura poured forth, the keen intent of the sword chilling to the bone, making everyone present shudder.

Empowered by the Dragon Blood Sword, he opened his eyes wide, and mysterious runes appeared in his pupils.

“I see, it’s the spirit form of the Unborn Void God,” the Heaven Ghost muttered.

Then his sharp gaze shifted to the psychic phantom images that floated around the Unborn Void God.

“Damn it! Blood Soul, Blood Spring, Blood Metropolis, and Void Willard—how did they become Ghost Immortals?! To be devoured in essence, breath, and spirit by a spirit form, no wonder this Demon God is so ferocious, able to firmly suppress the Heaven Dragon!”

The Heaven Ghost was startled, a trace of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

Fortunately, Her Majesty is cautious, having dispatched two detachments of the Heaven-Demon Guard along with a hundred thousand troops and a Venerable Ghost Immortal as tribute to assist him in suppressing the Demon God. Otherwise, he would have had to resort to desperate measures to avoid becoming fodder for this Demon God’s spirit form.

“What are you dawdling for, hurry up and help me! If I die, everyone present can forget about surviving!” The Heaven Dragon’s tone carried a hint of threat, clearly pushed to the brink of desperation.

The Heaven Ghost’s gaze turned cold, and he immediately swung his sword. The blade’s light flashed, its destructive aura began to spread, and the Empty Three Realms looked as if they were cleaved open by a single sword strike. The space torn by sword intent suddenly appeared between the Unborn Void God and the Heaven Dragon.

Seizing this opportunity, the Heaven Dragon chose to exert all his power to break free from the bonds.

Heaven Dragon’s body surface blazed with glory, releasing unparalleled flames. The Domination of the Ghost Immortal strongman poured out, like an insurmountable Solar Circle descending, causing the Unborn Void God’s body to shudder, its pristine white bones vibrating and finally exploding with a deafening burst, the raging flames sweeping across the world.

Meanwhile, a streak of firelight quickly burst through the flames.

“Phew, that was a close call this time,” remarked the Heaven Dragon with a wary look in his eyes.

It wasn’t that he had never suppressed a Vacant God Avatar before!

In the thousands of years gone by, he had suppressed three Vacant God Avatars. Except for the first one, which had almost turned the tables on him due to his lack of power at that time, the other two were overwhelmed with ease.

But this time was different. At least, the Heaven Dragon had never seen a Demon God’s spirit form that would actively hide its true prowess. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have suffered such a loss due to underestimating the enemy.

Thinking this, the extremely angered Heaven Dragon bellowed, a terrifyingly hot light erupting from the tips of his five fingers.

“`

“Chasing the Sun* Solar Circle!”

“`

With this strike launched, the position where the Unborn Void God was located suddenly manifested five solar circles centered around Him.

Boom!

The scorching flares formed terrifying ripples that spread out into the distance, anything they encountered, no matter what it was, would twist into hot air and disappear as if before the high temperatures akin to the core of a great sun, including the Unborn Void God, who was cloven in two by the Heaven Ghost’s sword.

Seeing this, the Heaven Dragon felt not joy but shock, and he shouted to the Heaven Ghost, “Be careful, this Demon God can release a demonic realm that ignores attacks from Venerables.”

The Heaven Ghost’s complexion changed, and his Dragon Blood Sword slashed behind him.

The next second, where the divine sword struck, the space collapsed, revealing a white, flawless hand colliding with the divine sword.

“Form the Ten Directions God Annihilation Circle!” The Heaven Ghost’s silhouette retreated explosively, his voice rumbling like thunder.

In an instant, the soldiers, who had been stunned by the fierce battle between the Ghost Immortal and the Demon God, snapped back to reality. Their bodies exploded with ghost force, their breaths intertwined, condensing the blood and ghost force of a hundred thousand soldiers into the body of their general, making the Heaven Ghost emit a supreme aura that could almost compete with the Gods.

…

The battle continued for a day and a night. From outward appearances, the Heaven-Demon Guard was gradually gaining the upper hand.

Hidden in the depths, David Jones watched the intense battle in the distance, his thoughts stirring slightly.

“With the two Ghost Immortals and a hundred thousand troops, this avatar of the Demon God couldn’t possibly just keep reviving and being slain continuously until in the end, they wear out the Umbral army, could it!”

To be honest, David Jones had also been shocked by the entrance of the elder who annihilated the Demon God with a single palm and almost thought he might miss out on the promised Extreme Arcane Star and Flawless King Body from the God Spirit. But the one-sided battle afterward made him understand just how terrifying the Demon God was.

Reviving from a drop of blood, unharmed through the ages, immortal and indestructible.

If an ordinary legend possessed just one of these traits, they could dominate amongst legends, and with the three combined, they could probably even contend with Immortals.

That’s why, seeing the two Ghost Immortals struggle for a day and a night just to kill the Unborn Void God twice, David Jones couldn’t help but feel worried, fearing that the Ghost Immortals might retreat steadily due to the unfavorable situation.

“To seal the Demon God, we must first break His demonic realm; without breaching the realm, the seal cannot hold! Don’t rush, wait until the demonic realm is worn down by the blood and ghost force of a hundred thousand soldiers; that will be the best time to strike.”

After he spoke, the God Spirit trembled slightly as if it had discovered something, its tone a bit strange.

“Unexpectedly, apart from ourselves, there are others coveting the origin of the Unborn Void God, wanting to take the nest of the cuckoo and occupy the Demon God’s body.”

“The body of the Demon God can be occupied?” Hearing such shocking news, David Jones was greatly surprised.

“Of course not! Divine power has its own will and can assimilate psychic presence, which is why I have never granted you divine power.

Even if that person succeeds by chance and merges with the Demon God’s body, the slow assimilation by divine power will gradually shift his consciousness towards the Demon God’s will, turning him into a puppet of the Demon God.”

Hearing this, David Jones’ face changed slightly as the drops of water that the God Spirit had previously shed instantly flashed through his mind.

“Those energies were nothing more than pure Arcane Force that I casually created from the residue of the Energy of Devouring. They have no effect on you!”

After explaining, the God Spirit added another sentence, expressing its goodwill.

“Under the constraints of the Sacred Contract, companions cannot harm each other; this is a rule not even Immortals can break!”
