Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 677 - 386: Rather Hell Than the Dragon Clan (Part 2)
When the true form falls, even if the will remains, his combat power will be at rock bottom, at that moment, his divine enemies and certain opportunists may truly invade his Divine Country.
That would be the truly desperate moment; therefore he would never be impulsive enough to commit to reckless actions that would sever his foundation and immortality over a few provocations from a reptile.
Kill!
The war reignites, the Flame Sun Sovereign’s avatar that failed to halt the war starts a bloody combat with the Holy Dragon that arrived across planes.
Even though the final result could be foreseen, knowing it was difficult to change, Heliers, whose anger had already been ignited, did not intend to surrender just yet, even if defeated, he wanted to tear a few pieces of flesh from this dragon’s body.
This was an extremely bloody and cruel battle, even Noah’s ancestral body was torn several times. The Flame Sun Sovereign was like he had gone mad, completely disregarding the life of this divine-born, sparing no cost, just to severely wound Noah.
Unfortunately, such injuries were not even considered light wounds for Noah, healing in a blink, because the Sun God Power couldn’t cause permanent trauma to Noah, merely tearing flesh wasn’t counted for much.
As the cost for causing such injuries to Noah, in less than thirty rounds, the divine-born who was one of the creators of the Fiery Sun Kingdom, its body gradually became hazy, and after one last strike towards Noah, its body completely dematerialized, transformed into a splendid golden light, fluttering in the air, finally dissipating and disappearing.
"Is that all?"
Stretching out a Dragon Claw, Noah swatted away the last strike. With a snort, infinite flowing fires suddenly spread through the air, eventually transforming into meteors, bombarding the battlefield.
Even as a believer of the Flame Sun Sovereign, possessing extremely high resistance to flames, resistance can also be penetrated, even so-called complete immunity can be taken down by higher-level power.
On this battlefield filled with despair and death, having fire resistance isn’t necessarily a good thing because there’s no way to end life in the shortest time, instead, one has to struggle long in this fiery arena, surpassing even Hell, to finally take the last breath.
"Noah, the Divine doesn’t only have these means, you must remain cautious!"
Even the Beastman King Grom, who maintained a vaguely confrontational attitude toward Noah, couldn’t help but warn Noah. Although he had witnessed Noah’s powerful combat power over a divine avatar, he still gave the warning because that was his understanding of the Divine.
"I know not to underestimate the Divine, but what do you think he can still do to me?"
"Hard to say."
The Beastman King glanced at Noah, pondered for a moment, and slowly shook his head,
"The one you are fighting should belong to a True God, and after his Ascension, he would seal quite a bit of evil. If he throws those evil creatures at you, even you might find it very tricky."
"Evil creatures? Divine Calamities?"
Noah’s expression also became somewhat solemn and grave because this was indeed a possibility.
Although his adoptive father Casius had once killed a Divine Calamity, it couldn’t be denied that a Divine Calamity that could be slain by Casius, who was only a Legend with incomplete Titan Bloodline, was just a weakling among the Divine Calamities.
The truly powerful Divine Calamities would strike fear even in True Gods because Divine Calamities are erroneous existences birthed by the Divine, possessing incredible high immunity to divine powers, and due to the Divine, they can naturally master all kinds of rules, some Divine Calamities can even enter the Material Realm.
However, the rules of the Material Realm constrain not only the True Gods but also any existence on the same level as the True Gods.
The Divine Calamities truly opposing the Divine still couldn’t enter the Material Realm, yet, even those below the Divine due to possessing Divine properties are extremely troublesome, being difficult to kill is one of their most prominent traits.
However, even as Noah and the Beastman King, two pinnacle Material Realm existences, used their understanding of the Divine to speculate what a driven crazy True God might do, they underestimated the lower bound of what a Divine could do.
"What? How is this possible?"
"Lift Hell’s seal? Have they gone mad?"
"Once that door is opened, with our kingdom’s current power, it’s impossible to seal it back again."
"Why would we need to seal it again? Once the seal is lifted, the ones needing to trouble over it won’t be us but those reptiles, it’s not our problem."
"Whose orders are these? How can it be so absurd? This is our war with the Dragon Clan, why introduce Hell’s power? Are they trying to make our plane fall?"
"So what if it falls? Without our Lord’s illumination, how is this plane different from Hell?"
"The Dragon Clan hasn’t done terribly, especially in many aspects, I think they’ve done better than us, and many citizens are living better lives than before, even if they win..."
"Shut up, you shameless traitor, are you going to betray our Lord’s light? Actually boasting about that Evil Dragon here!"
"Haven’t you reached the point of ignoring facts? Don’t tell me, you don’t know the state of the vassal states!"
"Our Lord’s sacred light cannot be defiled!"
In the Fiery Sun Kingdom, facing the Dragon Clan legion’s close approach, a city already under increasingly heavy atmosphere burst into unprecedented internal strife.
In this chaos, a large number of nobles and royal family members with power were executed, and numerous Paladin groups suffered siege and annihilation by some unknown force.
Ultimately, beneath the royal palace, an ancient and unknown seal, dating who knows how many ages, was lifted amid the chaos. Blood light filled the sky, and the prosperous Kingdom Capital was utterly engulfed within it.
Hell Invasion!
The Gate of Hell has opened!
The Gate of Hell, sealed for 1,700 years, due to the Dragon Clan invasion, caused the guarding forces to weaken and evil took advantage, violently breaking the supposed secure forces.
Evil forces from Hell began to invade continuously, causing the tragic incident where over three million innocent people were used for the blood sacrifice, also resulting in the appearance of projections of multiple Hell Lords and many Legendary Devils leading legions descending upon the Material Realm.
The world was shocked!
No one expected that at this late stage of the war, where the scales of victory had already tilted and the outcome was clear, such a tragedy would occur.
Although according to information from the upper echelons of the Fiery Sun Kingdom who managed to escape, they attributed the main cause of this seal’s shattering and Hell’s invasion to the relentless intrusions of the Dragon Clan legion.
"Evil God, this is utterly evil God’s deed!"
"He must be killed; he is too mad!"
"How did he dare do this, how could he bear it, these are his followers!"
In Noah’s temporary palace, numerous Dragon Lords and Warband Commanders gathered together, and the atmosphere was erupting because the news of the Hell invasion had truly shocked them, and learning that the entire Capital of the Fiery Sun Kingdom was sacrificed had left them extraordinarily stunned, not knowing what to say.
"According to the information we received, the devout followers inside the Capital were relocated prior to the sacrifice, and he’s still using us as an excuse, claiming it was due to our threat that he sought refuge, unaware of Hell’s invasion."
"Ridiculous! Laughable! Who do they think they’re fooling with these tricks?"
"Your Majesty Noah, please give your command, we cannot sit by while Hell’s pollution spreads, this will be our territory in the future!"
Facing the outraged Dragon Lords, Noah instead looked up in the direction of the Flame Kingdom Capital, because within it he sensed a thread of familiar yet especially unfamiliar aura...
