Chapter 1052: Chapter 67: Spiritual Spring, Ninth-Rank Floater, Sprouting Void Seed! (6)
In this ebb and flow, Dragon King Yin Xiu was like a sharp blade, piercing directly through the defense line organized by the three of them.
"Dragon King’s Reverse Scale Sword? My God, Yin Xiu still carries the Ancient Ting Kingdom’s Divine Artifact, save me—"
Yichuan was so frightened that his soul nearly left his body; his Rule Arena was only at the sixth level and could not possibly stand against Yin Xiu.
What’s more, Yin Xiu carried the Divine Artifact of the Gu Ting Kingdom, making the pressure utterly crushing.
But when he thought to run, it was already too late.
Dragon King Yin Xiu was extremely clever, only unleashing his aura when he got very close and then unleashing his ultimate move.
When he spat out the Dragon King Sword forged from over ten thousand Dragon King Reverse Scales, Yichuan was completely locked on.
"Whizz~"
The dragon scales unfurled, and the sword of dozens of meters quickly extended to over a thousand meters.
Yichuan’s form was but ten thousand meters, and when he tried to use the Wind Dojo to flee, the Dragon King Sword pierced through his Dojo’s defenses.
In the cyan space, a truly vivid golden light appeared!
"No, no!"
Yichuan roared in fury, frantically manipulating the Rule Arena to resist.
He used all his skills, including transforming into human form or tossing out magic treasures to distract attention.
All such tactics were entirely useless!
"Dragon King’s Reverse Scale Sword, reputed to be the godly artifact of beheading." Zhao Xing quietly watched from afar, "Once the sword is unsheathed, it pierces the reverse scale; every dragon slain increases its size, passed down through innumerable generations, ranking first among judicious-level Dragon Clan Divine Artifacts."
"Dragon King Yin Xiu had the strength to attack nine kingdoms in his previous life, and all his treasures are potent Divine Artifacts."
"If only he weren’t so hasty, not yet advancing to Great Dragon King, and went to the Evil Sea and Heavenly Pool to reclaim the Law Code, he might have truly succeeded."
"Squelch!"
The Dragon King’s Reverse Scale Sword split Yichuan in two.
A flash of golden light, and the azure world immediately shattered.
"What?!"
Pompeii and Tuoyan immediately fled in panic.
As for other members of the Human Clan, they couldn’t care about orders, fleeing alongside.
"Roar!"
However, just as they intended to flee, they heard a sound as if from ancient primordial times.
Immediately, a golden tablet descended upon them from above.
[Divine Court Mandate, True Word Decree!]
[In the name of the Dragon Emperor’s Successor, I depose ’Pompeii’ and ’Tuoyan’ from their positions as Dragon Kings! Immediately report to the Dragon Prison to serve a thousand years of punishment!]
"Buzz~"
The golden tablet emitted a powerful suction force.
The Dragon Emperor Golden Text turned into golden light, penetrating Pompeii’s Heavenly Dragon body and Tuoyan’s Fire Dragon King body.
It then reentered the Dragon Emperor’s Law Code.
"Boom~"
The two could no longer maintain their respective dragon forms, reverting directly to human forms.
"This, how is this possible!" Pompeii widened his eyes, looking toward the direction of the sound.
There, a Five-clawed Golden Dragon gazed coldly at him.
"No!" Tuoyan roared, realizing his sharp sensory perception was rapidly waning.
Originally, as a Dragon King, both his Dojo Realm and spell had bonuses in the Dragon Court.
But now, it was as if shrouded in a gray haze, making his perception exceedingly blurred.
Originally, he could overlook other first-rank Dragon Kings, but now he was just an ordinary first-rank of the Human Clan.
Unlike the enemies of the White Bone Sect.
Tuoyan and Pompeii had a certain degree of resistance; they underwent numerous tests of the Dragon Court to earn the Dragon King position, with bodies already partly dragonized.
Thus, Zhao Xing’s True Word Decree was initially for confinement.
Should the two resist this mandate, they become rebellious dragons, enabling the issuance of an execution order.
Pompeii and Tuoyan, having no idea what was happening, naturally chose to escape; how could they comply with orders?
A thousand years’ imprisonment was akin to death.
Therefore, their attempts to flee became the basis for Zhao Xing’s second decree.
"In the name of the Dragon Emperor’s Successor, command all dragons, execute the rebellious dragons!"
Thus, these two met the same treatment as Gu Er.
The Dragon Clan Lords, who originally served them, all pounced on them.
Nonetheless, the two had some depth, immediately tossing out two sets of ninth-level magic treasures for obstruction, then quickly fled.
Zhao Xing also did not pursue, lacking the means to chase them down without mastering the nine major spells, nor could he kill these two first-ranks.
He could have Yin Xiu pursue the two, but the situation remained unclear, so it was better to keep Yin Xiu nearby.
In any case, these two would never appear within the Dragon Court’s domain again.
The only two choices left were the Evil Sea and the Heavenly Pool.
If they truly went, all the better.
Given the current strength of those two places, going there was tantamount to suicide.
"This..."
Gao Feng and Ji Cheng, watching from afar, were dumbfounded.
Who could this be, with such an incredible ability!
"Dragon Emperor’s Successor? Should I... kneel?"
"How should I know?"
Ji Cheng and Gao Feng, watching the Dragon Clan Lords prostrating themselves.
"Maybe we should kneel too, clearly different in rank compared to us."
"Makes sense."
Ji Cheng and Gao Feng immediately knelt down.
"Both of you are our own, no need to kneel." Zhao Xing’s voice came, this time using the language of Great Zhou. "Quickly chase down the Southern Barbarian Remnants!"
Our own?
Ji Cheng and Gao Feng exchanged a glance, their curiosity piqued.
But now was not the time for discussion, but to expand the combat gains.
"Understood!"
Ji Cheng and Gao Feng swiftly pursued.
Among the three Dragon Kings, one was decapitated by Yin Xiu, and two fled.
But even escape likely meant death.
Zhao Xing was unsure if this interfered with Emperor Jing’s plans, but he could not afford to worry about such matters.
After reabsorbing the Law Code, he flew toward the entrance of the Nine-star Fire Prison.
