982. Battle against the Dragon King
Zi Yan, who was still digesting the last power of the Dragon Emperor's Origin Fruit, has regained consciousness, but she is now surrounded by filthy blood light that keeps trying to erode her.
A protective shield of purple-gold imperial aura formed around Zi Yan's delicate body, temporarily stabilizing her. However, her face was pale, clearly indicating she was severely affected and not feeling well. What frustrated Zi Yan most was that she was filled with rage, yet had nowhere to vent it. Whenever she tried to unleash her power to break through the array before her, she felt incredibly dizzy and nauseous, even unable to circulate her battle qi.
This is the terrifying suppressive power of the Dragon Transformation Demon Array on the dragon race. The only thing Zi Yan can do now is to release her defenses as she does now and do her best to resist the erosion of the Dragon Transformation Demon Array on herself.
However, this resistance was destined to be short-lived. She could not replenish her fighting spirit, and once her internal strength was exhausted, it would be the end for Zi Yan.
Since she awoke, she has only seen Donglong Island in full decline. Now that Xiao Yan has finally dealt with his two opponents, it seems that the situation may be in jeopardy.
"Has Xiao Yan really grown to this level?"
Zi Yan knew the strength of these Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan elders better than anyone else, but her heart immediately began to worry again, because Xiao Yan was about to face the true top expert of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, the Dragon King!
After seeing that Zhu Mu's soul had successfully returned to his side, the Western Dragon King discovered that Xiao Yan was just waiting there without moving, seemingly not taking him seriously at all.
A powerful aura of a Dou Sheng surged forth, unleashing the full power of a three-star Dou Sheng. This oppressive force instilled fear in many members of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan who were still some distance from the Western Dragon King.
Despite the impact, Xiao Yan remained calm, his fighting spirit rising ever higher.
"A three-star Dou Sheng is a worthy opponent!"
When the Western Dragon King faced Xiao Yan, he didn't say anything extra and unleashed his right hand without holding back.
As he channeled his battle qi into his body, dragon scales appeared on his hands. The powerful and oppressive force, combined with the sharpness of the dragon scales, made this attack approach the Heaven-Rank Battle Technique released by a one-star Battle Saint, the Ancient Void Dragon.
Faced with this attack, Xiao Yan dared not underestimate it at all. He quickly retrieved the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame and merged it into the Xuan Heavy Ruler.
With the blessing of the strange fire, its power was greatly enhanced. Then, it swung the Xuanzhong Ruler with all its might to forcefully block the punch from the Western Dragon King.
boom--
The energy emanated from the core of their collision. In their first clash, neither of them used any complicated or fancy fighting techniques; it was the simplest and most straightforward clash of power.
The Western Dragon King was thrown several meters away by the attack, while Xiao Yan was sent flying backward, his tiger's mouth split open, and blood soaked the handle of the Xuan Heavy Ruler.
The Western Dragon King swiftly regained control of his body, bending his legs to use the air for leverage. In a flash, he caught up with the flying Xiao Yan. A vicious whip kick, his dragon scales instantly covering his body, traced an arc and slammed down towards Xiao Yan's head.
Just as it was about to reach Xiao Yan's head, the azure flames extended tentacles to bind the Western Dragon King's leg, slowing its descent.
"Get out of here!"
The West Dragon King's right leg forcefully tore apart the Sea Heart Flame that had initially flown in. This Fire Glaze Beast was still effective against two-star Dou Sheng, but the opponent's strength had increased again. After reaching the mid-stage of three-star Dou Sheng, the entanglement of a single strange fire was no longer enough to stop him.
Fortunately, Xiao Yan was prepared. Suddenly, a figure appeared, and a heavy battle puppet suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Yan. Fearless, it stretched out its arms and used them to block the West Dragon King's whip kick.
Although this battle puppet cannot use its internal battle qi, it is incredibly hard because it incorporates various metals, far exceeding the flesh and blood of an ordinary Battle Saint.
At the cost of dented palms, he took the blow from the Western Dragon King. At the same time, as he reached out, the energy of the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame hidden in his body was also released, leaving two scorch marks on the Western Dragon King's calf covered with dragon scales.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Yan retrieved his battle puppet and successfully created distance. In that short time, he had already felt the suffocating pressure from the Western Dragon King.
The sense of oppression between a late-stage two-star Dou Sheng and a three-star Dou Sheng is vastly different. Xiao Yan could handle the former with ease, but the difference between the two was like night and day.
On the other side, the Southern Dragon King has gradually suppressed the counterattack of the Eastern Dragon Island. Although he has not yet fully controlled the situation, no one will break through his blockade to come to Xiao Yan's aid.
At the Northern Dragon King's place, Zi Yan remained motionless, continuing her standoff with him. All she could do was hold on and not let it affect the confidence of those who were still fighting for her.
Xiao Yan let out a soft breath, looking at his opponent in front of him, and knew very well that he still had to rely on himself to break the deadlock!
Against an opponent of the strength of the Western Dragon King, ordinary abilities would be a complete waste of time.
Xiao Yan's Dou Qi surged wildly once more, and at the same time, the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame obeyed his command, returning from the outside world into his body. The flames burned fiercely, and as the fire grew, Xiao Yan himself gradually merged with the strange fire.
"Celestial-Rank Combat Technique, Crimson Flame Piercing the Sun!"
The originally expanding flames quickly began to be compressed, gradually turning into an extremely concentrated black color. A black sun containing terrifying power and high temperature gradually rose behind Xiao Yan.
The Western Dragon King had witnessed the power of Xiao Yan's attack firsthand. Although he was strong enough to suppress Xiao Yan, he did not underestimate him.
The Western Dragon King stretched out his palms, and the sound of dragon roars echoed. His power was no less than that of Xiao Yan opposite him. This was his Heaven-Rank Battle Skill!
"Heavenly Sound Dragon King Palm!"
Both of them used only a very short time to unleash their Heavenly Rank combat skills.
Xiao Yan, who had merged with the flames, instantly transformed into a black line. No one could see his movements clearly, and the distance between him and the Western Dragon King closed in an instant.
The Western Dragon King unleashed the full power of his palms, creating an insurmountable natural barrier accompanied by subtle sonic waves that appeared out of nowhere. The two men's fighting spirits rapidly depleted during their clash.
In the end, it was the Western Dragon King's palms that slammed out with overwhelming force, unstoppable. The black thread that Xiao Yan had transformed into, as well as the extremely compressed strange fire, were all forcefully swatted away by the Western Dragon King's bare hands. Under the sweeping sound waves, not a single wisp of black flame could reach the Western Dragon King.
Xiao Yan was once again at a disadvantage in his clash with the Western Dragon King.
The people from Donglong Island who were supporting Zi Yan were also extremely distressed. They had finally seen a glimmer of hope, and it seemed that there was a possibility of rescuing Zi Yan, but now that hope was being severely suppressed.
The Western Dragon King, a three-star Dou Sheng, is simply too difficult to surpass.
