High Above

Dragons are the most powerful individual creatures on Terra. Even if it is said that it is a collective, no one will refute it. Everyone does not have that much leisure, nor that much racial pride, and insists on insisting that they are better than dragons.

They are tall, strong, and powerful. Dragons abide by creeds and rules and keep their promises far better than any human on the face of the earth.

Although there are indeed mad dragons and crazy dragons that poison the people, there are also dragon lords who protect one party and maintain order.

People are afraid of real dragons, respect real dragons, yearn for real dragons, and want to become real dragons.

That's why there is the Dragon Worship Cult...and there is the True Dragon Bloodline.

but.

Where is the Dragon King?

In this land, in this sky, the strongest among the dragons, the 'king' of the dragons... what have they done?

How strong are they?

This is actually a difficult question to answer.

Because dragon kings almost never come to the earth - they may take action and reply. Once every few hundred years.

However, even so, the Dragon King will never come to the earth easily, as if everything on the earth has unbearable poison.

Some people say that dragon kings come from the kingdom of gods. They disdain everything about mortals. Those ancient true dragon kings are bored with everything on the earth and don't even want to take a second look.

Some people say that the dragon kings rule the endless dark sky. They are the kings of sunlight and moonlight. The light shining in the sky is their gaze, just like humans will not go deep into the ant nest to eat and live with the ants. The dragon kings So is nature.

Some people also say...that is because the power of the Dragon King is too powerful, so powerful that it is unbelievable.

Therefore, they do not come to the earth easily to avoid harming the interests of the common people.

And now.

Right now.

Terra 775, July 15, late at night.

Since one hundred and thirty years ago, the Dragon King has come to Terra again!

At that moment, the land of Nanling, which had been completely engulfed by darkness, was illuminated by endless shining light!

From Harrison Port to Nauman City, from the Mountain People Autonomous Region to the Silver Peak Territory and even the Agate Stone Plain, all the people living in Nanling witnessed the miraculous prophecy of the sky fire and once again saw something indistinguishable from the miracle. A strange scene - at the top of the sky, two bright stars suddenly light up. This scene is like two suns suddenly lighting up from the darkness of early morning. Their bright and warm light shines equally on all living beings in Nanling.

The clouds separated layer by layer. Not only that, but even the atmosphere was sunken. If they looked at it from an extraterrestrial perspective, they could see that there were two extremely huge light sources from Dragon Island. They began to fall towards the earth at a seemingly slow but actually fast speed. The reason why the atmosphere was dented rather than broken through was simply because their speed was too fast, and even the planet's atmosphere itself could not react.

The sky turned pure black in an instant: it was obviously night but as bright as day, the sky was as bright as day but as dark as night.

But in this dark night, there are two suns hanging.

On the Nanling battlefield, Ian, who was still fighting fiercely with Deathstroke, laughed. He didn't mind at all that his elf body was knocked away by Deathstroke with his sword, and Marquis Barton, who was controlling the celestial phenomena in the battle, didn't care at all about his ability to control the atmosphere. Being cracked by the aftermath of this power, he ran aside lazily and stopped fighting.

The death knell, which was originally extremely angry and passionate, was stunned for a moment. It raised its head and looked at the light above its head. The demon's throat, which had almost completely transformed into a dragon, was beating, as if it wanted to say something... but it couldn't.

On the battlefield, in addition to drones and unmanned armors still fighting bravely, even the craziest demons and the most determined soldiers have put down their weapons, and everyone is staring at the strange sky above their heads.

The Dragon King comes in person.

Two fifth energy levels, it can even be said that the two most powerful fifth energy levels in the cognitive circle of Terra World, harnessed their own unparalleled divine power and descended on this land.

Stretching his body, the Extreme Wind Dragon King showed his complete form at this moment: He was completely integrated into Terra's planetary magnetic field. The huge electromagnetic dragon turned into countless vertical and horizontal thunders in the sky and earth. Thousands of thunders flashed in the light. There was a surging explosion, and then an outline of a majestic, huge and incredible dragon in the sky - His body can't even be encompassed by the entire sky. When you see the head, you can't see the tail. Everything is hidden on the other side of the horizon.

And the True Flame Dragon King shines on the whole world like the second sun, bright, bright, and hot. Even the sunflowers raised their heads and saluted the sun enthusiastically and devoutly.

It was at this time that the two dragon kings took action at the same time - they devoted their will to the western border of the empire, to the war-torn land that was almost deserted, leaving only wails, bones and carrion.

At this time, the Western Territory was completely in ruins. Perhaps Grand Duke Thorin had foreseen such a fact, so he angrily rebuked the empire for its actions, killed the entire principality himself, and then escaped to hell.

The Dragon King's eyes looked at this land with compassion and pure equal justice.

On this earth, it is clear that only humans have the right to kill humans arbitrarily, but humans actually kill their own kind again and again without mercy.

What is the difference between such a world and hell? The devil is nothing better than this. Rather, the devil was born from this horrific scene.

There has never been any demon that bewitched humans. It was humans themselves who created the abyss.

And in the end, humans will judge themselves.

But the Dragon King is different from humans.

The Dragon King always has hope.

So I will keep watch. Watch until the day your own end comes.

However, to the devil, this scene is no different from the Doomsday Judgment.

The virtual realm is being peeled off layer by layer under the light of thunder and true flames. Their power sweeps across the sky and the earth. The virtual realm is no exception. Those layers of virtual realm based on human perception are completely peeled off, revealing Located at a deeper level, the basis of the subconscious mind of all living beings.

Here, the golden-red dragon egg, the dragon lurking under the consciousness of all living beings, was discovered. It was only at this moment that everyone was shocked to realize that under the dark cursed soil, there were layers of blood vessels like blood vessels. Veins, and these veins and meridian textures are all derived from the golden-red dragon eggs.

The dragon kings looked at each other with the dragon eggs, and all their scarlet eyes had to open to look at these two 'kinds'.

The virtual realm stopped at this moment.

"This Dragon of the Abyss is far more powerful than I imagined..."

Dragon Island, overlooking the immovable fortified city of Terra, Ian stared at the earth. His eyes crossed the boundary of virtual reality. He stared at the dragon with the Dragon King and recounted the scene he saw in the abyss: "He has risen from the deep. The despair sublimated and turned into blazing destruction - since the Kingdom of the Abyss is about plundering, eroding, and destroying other civilizations, then let all civilizations become us."

"Only by a civilization that can defeat them can we gain the peace of life!"

[We are great demons who have emerged from the abyss and live by fighting and destroying. Those civilizations that cannot withstand our destruction are unqualified. They have internal conflicts and hatred, despair and wailing, so they absolutely cannot defeat us. They cannot defeat us. Better than pure struggle]

[We are the Great Limiter - we are the ‘Demons on the Ladder’ who clean up the world. If you surpass us, you will be the seed of civilization that is enough to become a star god. Being unable to transcend us means that your civilization is nothing more than this. Why not become us and implement it for the sake of true correctness and the highest civilization! 】

At this moment, the Dragon of the Abyss sealed in the dragon egg let out a deep laugh: [But even the Demon of Destruction was ultimately defeated - we also became the fire that was crossed and the tombstone. 】

[Compatriot, I am the true dragon ‘Destruction’, also known as ‘Trial’. Do you want to prevent the Terran civilization from undergoing its own trial? 】

【Can】

The Extreme Wind Dragon King unexpectedly agreed, but he quickly changed the subject: [Please go to the creators to apply - if they respond to you and agree, you can naturally continue your trial]

【idiot】

The True Flame Dragon King is a bit hot-tempered: [I thought we were in the Abyss Galaxy? There is only such a breathing civilization left in the entire cradle. You still try it. If you can't pass the test, everyone plays the game of Demon Contest with you? 】

Without any extra movement, the two dragon kings took action without hesitation and began to peel off the eggs of the 'Dragon of Destruction' - the Cursed Earth is essentially the subspace domain released by the Dragon of the Abyss, although Feiyan Land can already create Similar to the subspace, but more of it is mainly built with this dragon of the abyss.

[The trials will never end. As long as people in this world are still creating demons, my mission will continue]

The Dragon of Destruction did not resist - it had not been long since he had recovered, and his strength at the fourth level had not yet returned to the fifth level, so resistance was useless.

But even so, His mouth was still very tough: [Compatriots, remember, it is never me who is going to judge and test them, but they themselves are already judging and testing themselves. What I do is just to make Chaos Everything becomes more clearly visible]

[The devil can never be killed]

After the infinite beam of light swept through the entire Western Void Realm and the world with the power of spiritual fire, the dragon kings took the dragon of the abyss directly out of the atmosphere of Terra and returned to Dragon Island.

"Dragon Island..."

At this moment, the strong men who had been paying attention to Nanling, or in other words, to the demon army, naturally noticed this scene.

The strong men on the side of Feiyan were so shocked that they didn't even have time to get angry, because the unparalleled power had crushed all their thoughts of resisting or making small moves.

Long Dao has already taken action, so this time there will be absolutely no negotiation.

They...can only accept it.

As for other forces, they also watched the Dragon Kings' big move this time with great caution.

After all, the number of times Longdao has taken action in history is also within ten fingers, and the last time it took action was a hundred years ago.

A few generations of time are enough for people to forget the threat of Dragon Island. The technology of the Demon Army is certainly evil, but who doesn't have some shameful dark things in their technological reserves? Feiyandi actually dares to use it openly, so let him be the vanguard and see what Long Island will do.

Even so, when everyone saw that the two dragon kings came directly to the Western Realm and detained the Dragon of the Abyss lurking in the depths of the virtual realm, silence fell on the world.

The four supreme fifth-level ones, the only remaining third-generation true dragons, truly ancient beings from the last era...their existence itself is a kind of order.

Since the demon army cannot be used, many similar plans cannot be used.

But obviously, it took Longdao a lot of effort to find evidence of Feiyandi's technology. If those technologies that are less harmful are covered with a layer of outerwear... maybe, they are not unusable?

"Feiyandi will suffer a big loss this time."

With this thought, many spiritual thoughts and wills dispersed.

But there were still many people who took a look at Nanling before leaving.

【Ian Silverfeng】

They chanted the name silently.

Obviously, if it weren't for the relationship between Ian Yinfeng and Longdao, Longdao would never have been able to find the evidence of Feiyandi so quickly.

I originally thought that Mahdi Yougu was just a disciple of Hilliard. The reason why he was valued by Dragon Island was just because he had the potential to become a dragon... Unexpectedly, the secrets hidden in Mahdi may be greater than everyone imagined. He was so big that he had enough face to persuade the Dragon King to pay attention to his junior brother's territory.

Although the Silver Peak Prophet is a prophet, Dragon Island also has the technology to observe the future, which is far more comprehensive than the countries of Terra. The other party should not have much scruples about the prophet.

Therefore, the other party will definitely not have any special affection for Ian. At most, they just appreciate him, nothing more.

So, what secret is hidden in Mahdi?

"heritage……"

In the imperial capital, Axel, the guardian of the land, raised his head thoughtfully and looked at the sky: "Father's inheritance. Was it delivered to you through the hands of the teacher?"

"Um……"

He thought for a long time, then shook his head slightly: "Although I may not be worthy of the inheritance, what should be taken back should be taken back."

"At least... I want to know the last plan left by my father."

"Let's go to Dragon Island next time."

Making plans lightly, the defender no longer looked at the sky, but looked at the imperial capital beneath him.

Compared to the high sky, he cared more about this land and the scenery he could see on this solitary peak.

"Since the Demon Legion has lost the protection of the Dragon of the Abyss, it means that the time has come to counterattack - only the strong can sense the Dragon King's move. We must make big moves immediately to avoid being robbed of the limelight."

He said this in a calm tone: "Nanling did a good job and blocked the devil's attack. Barton has always been the most satisfying to me..."

"He and Earl Yinfeng are both qualified to participate in this major counterattack."

And at the same time.

As the Dragon of the Abyss was taken away, the cursed soil collapsed on a large scale, and only a small area that Feiyan Land could fully control could still be maintained. But in places like Nanling, the curse soil has completely lost its effectiveness.

And the aura of the Death Knell suddenly weakened - although it still had the soul of the fourth energy level, the power of the Dragon of the Abyss also continued to support it as the new demon along with the Cursed Earth. As soon as the Dragon of the Abyss left, its My breath became unstable, and I even felt like I was in conflict with myself.

As the saying goes, kill it while it is sick, let alone Ian, and other strong men in Nanling will never stop - so in an instant, everyone launched their killing moves, with Ian's Hong Tao Sword as the main one. Together they force Deathstroke into the void.

And when Deathstroke was forced to come to the virtual realm, what greeted him was a beam impact that the Giant of Light had accumulated for a long time!

[After all, I still can’t believe anything...]

He was never regarded as a real enemy from the beginning to the end. He was manipulated as a pawn from the beginning to the end. It was only before he died that Deathstroke realized that all the plans and preparations made by Ian and others were definitely not dealing with the demon army and himself. , but the entire Feiyandi conspiracy.

Just like what happened just now... As the Dragon of the Abyss was taken away by Dragon Island, Deathstroke sensed that he and others had been completely abandoned as the 'Devil Legion', and there were no longer any instructions or requirements from the rear.

Because...the dragon of the abyss and the consciousness of the abyss are not the same existence.

Feiyandi used the Dragon of the Abyss to develop his own abyss consciousness. This is humankind's own technology that will not be taken away by Dragon Island. It can even be said that the removal of the Dragon of the Abyss may be a good thing for the independent technological development of Feiyan Land. At least they do not have to face the terrifying dragon that commits destruction in the name of trial.

And I and others...were all experimental subjects from beginning to end. It's just that Count Yinfeng's counterattack was too swift and rapid, which somewhat broke Feiyandi's plan, and many of their tests were interrupted by the Dragon King before they could be completed.

[Abominable devil, perish in the light! 】

Under the impact of the giant of light's beam, Longyi's demon gradually collapsed.

Before dying, it finally raised its head seriously and looked at its target, the land of silver peaks.

Beautiful, bright, surrounded by rainbows, a happy and wonderful home.

envy. Extremely jealous. Why must my hometown be destroyed? Why can they live in such a paradise?

hatred. Incomparable hatred. Why do the people of the Empire insist on creating such hell in their hometown even though they know what heaven is?

Therefore, the devil left his last words with an extremely jealous and hateful will.

[Prophet...do you think you are creating heaven? 】

It sneered and said: [But heaven will eventually collapse, and the mountains will eventually be overturned - when that time comes, the kindest people will degenerate into demons, no one will be exception, and no one will get a good death]

[I am waiting for you in the void after destruction...waiting for everyone in this world! 】

"I never thought about eternity."

In the virtual realm, Fairy Ian chopped off the last remaining skull of it with a sword, turning it into burning ashes: "I just want to make this land a little more beautiful while I still exist. ."

The prophet's eyes were calm: "Happiness is like the light of a candle. If it is extinguished when someone blows it out, then it should be extinguished."

"After all, human beings, civilization, and the entire universe are all the product of an accident, and they are all flickering candles."

"Just...from start to finish. At least from what I've seen."

"Human beings are always trying to light more candles and create more accidents called happiness."

Closing his eyes and then opening them, Ian looked around at the blood-splattered Nanling battlefield.

Amidst the trumpets of victory, he whispered to himself: "Me too."

The demon is gone and the undead cannot hear his voice.

July 15, Terra 775.

Just as the prophet Yin Feng predicted, the heavenly calamity fire fell from the sky and wiped out the demons in Nanling.

The powerful men in the Empire's Nanling Province joined forces to fight against the enemy demon Deathstroke, and finally expelled him back to the Void Realm, using the furnace of light to burn him into ashes and completely obliterate him.

Same day.

The Dragon King came in person, detained the Dragon of the Abyss and returned to Dragon Island. The cursed soil of the Western Territory was completely defeated, but the remaining demon legions and the abyssal network still existed, and they continued to fight against the imperial legions.

But how could the empire let go of such a God-given opportunity? As more than twenty legions were mobilized, Lieshan Land also began to cooperate with the Far Flame Land Expeditionary Corps. The combined forces broke through many barriers and entered the mainland of Nirmathas.

Take the victory in the Nanling Guard Battle as a signal.

The big counterattack began.
