Chapter 246 The Battle of Fulong (Part 2)
"Ugh!" Qiuhe barely stopped his attack, using the Severing Slash technique. He understood that this attack wouldn't be fatal to the Dragon King Ruoduo.
Even with a full-force strike that cleaved through the air, the Dragon King Ruoduo only managed a muffled groan of pain. "Ahhh... Damn mosquito!"
The Autumn River, having unleashed this devastating strike, was about to swoop down and strike the injured Dragon King Rinpoche in mid-air, but just as the Autumn River crashed down...
The Dragon King Ruoduo immediately burrowed underground, and Qiuhe's attack missed its mark, only managing to land a dragon claw on the ground. But just as he landed...
However, the Dragon King Ruoduo emerged from behind Qiuhe and opened his blood-red maw, seemingly about to swallow Qiuhe whole. Just as he took a bite and held Qiuhe in his mouth...
Qiuhe's figure suddenly appeared before Ruoduo Dragon King amidst a blur of black and purple shadows, raising his right dragon claw to grab at Ruoduo Dragon King's head.
Just as the dragon's claw was about to touch the head of the Dragon King Ruotu, Ruotu instantly raised its forelimbs and slammed them down, unleashing a torrent of scorching fire that erupted from the shattered earth's crust.
Even with the shield, the massive flames erupting from the ground still blasted Qiuhe away. While Qiuhe was in the air, the Dragon King Ruoduo once again condensed rock element in his mouth.
With a bang, a massive breath of rock elemental energy erupted from the mouth of the Rota Dragon King once more, blasting another large hole in the ground.
The battle between Qiuhe and Ruoduo Dragon King at the bottom of the Fulong Tree continued to reverberate throughout the entire Minlin region, with the surrounding sparsely populated villages echoing the sounds of the battle.
Those who didn't know what was going on assumed a major earthquake had struck Liyue and all ran out of the village to avoid being buried alive if the earthquake collapsed their houses.
The tremendous tremor naturally drew the rest of the Liyue immortals to the Dragon Tree. Xiao, who had just teleported there, looked up and discovered the sealed gate on the Dragon Tree.
"This..." While Xiao was still looking bewildered, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, True Lord Lishui Dieshan, and several other immortals arrived at the scene.
When Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun saw the seal on the Fulong Tree being broken, his surprise was no less than Xiao's. "This is... the seal on the Fulong Tree has been broken!"
But this seal should only be able to be opened by the Emperor. Could it be that the seal of the Dragon King Ruotu has malfunctioned? The immortals were all alarmed upon hearing this.
Not knowing what to do. "Everyone, calm down. I'll try to contact the Emperor." At this moment, Zhongli, standing at the base of the Dragon-Subduing Tree, said...
Suddenly, I heard Xiao's voice beside me: "Your Majesty, can you hear me? I'm currently here at the Hidden Dragon Tree with True Lord Liuyun and the others."
"Moreover, the seal on the Fulong Tree seems to have malfunctioned. Are you down there?" Zhongli listened to Xiao's whispered message, then glanced at Qiuhe, who was relentlessly using the Broken Slash technique to weaken the Ruotu Dragon King.
"There's been a problem with King Ruoduo, they're working on it. What's the situation outside?" "The situation nearby isn't good; there's been a violent earthquake coming from here."
"It's already affecting the nearby villages." "Hmm... Then, go with Liu Yun and the others to evacuate the surrounding residents and check on the situation under the Fulong Tree."
"Still within a controllable range." "Yes, Your Majesty." After accepting the order, Xiao repeated Zhongli's entire statement, including the last few immortals.
They then went to nearby villages to evacuate the local residents. Ultimately, the battle between Qiuhe and the Dragon King Ruoduo lasted for several hours.
Under the constant strain of being torn apart and broken, King Naga now had several minor wounds on his body, and his strength was almost completely exhausted.
On Qiuhe's side, the situation was completely opposite. The energy within his body was now inexhaustible, even after a long and fierce battle.
His energy continued to surge unabated. "Morax... do you really intend to join forces with this mortal to wipe me out here?!"
Ruo Tuo Long Wang's voice was now weak and feeble. Zhong Li listened to these words in silence. The madness brought about by the wear and tear was beyond Zhong Li's ability to explain.
When those words reached the ears of King Rota, it was all in vain. "Rota! Now, you have lost."
Hearing Qiuhe's arrogant words, Ruotu Dragon King remained silent for a moment before suddenly letting out a low, maniacal laugh, "Ha, hahaha, hahahahahaha!"
"Morax, since you insist on betraying me..." As King Rota spoke, the rock element around him surged and formed an extremely powerful aura.
Finally, the ground began to tremble violently. This earthquake was far more intense than the one that occurred during the fierce battle between King Ruoduo and Qiuhe.
"Ruo Tuo, you..." Sensing the massive earthquake, Zhong Li realized the gravity of the situation. Ruo Tuo, the Dragon King, was burning his elemental power.
He intended to use the last of his ancient dragon essence to perish together with the entire Liyue kingdom. "Hahahaha, Morax, since you have no sentimentality..."
"You insist on killing me? Then today, I will ensure that you and Liyue are both buried beneath these cliffs!" King Ruoduo finished speaking.
Qiuhe instantly gathered energy in his legs, and in a flash, with the speed of lightning, he flashed towards Ruotu Dragon King like a shooting star streaking across the sky.
Seeing Qiuhe charging towards him, the Dragon King Ruoduo, after gathering its strength, suddenly thrust its massive horns towards Qiuhe. Just as the Dragon King Ruoduo's head was about to strike Qiuhe...
Suddenly, Qiuhe ducked down and slid across the lower body of the Dragon King Ruoduo. At that moment, time seemed to slow down as he slid across the Dragon King's lower body.
Qiuhe immediately raised his dragon claw and pierced the abdomen of the Naga King. The moment Qiuhe slid out from under the Naga King...
An energy line was connected to the belly of the Dragon King Ruotu from beneath his dragon claws. Qiuhe spun around and stood up.
His left hand gripped the dragon claw tightly, applying increasing pressure. "Dulin, hurry!" He sensed the powerful abrasive force connecting to Qiuhe's dragon claw.
In his consciousness space, Dulin suddenly unleashed all the demonic power within him, and then a massive black-purple magic circle appeared beneath the body of the Dragon King Ruoduo.
Several chains, as thick as giant pythons, shot out from the magic array and wrapped themselves around the body of the Dragon King Ruotu. "Ah! What is this?! Ah! Ahhhh!"
Ruo Tuo Dragon King suddenly let out a violent and sharp roar, and the ray of light connecting his belly to Qiu He Dragon Claw suddenly seemed to have energy.
Then, following the beam of light from within the body of the Dragon King Ruoduo, it entered Qiuhe's body. And just as that energy entered Qiuhe's body...
Qiuhe's eyes widened instantly, and the world before him flickered like a television screen with a distorted display. The next second, blackish-purple flames burst forth from Qiuhe's body.
Qiuhe also knelt down on the ground. "Ahhh! Du, Dulin, what's going on?!" Dulin, who was constantly absorbing this abrasive power in his consciousness space.
Hearing Qiuhe's painful groans, he also spoke up to remind him, "You brat! Stay awake! Don't pass out!" He wanted to filter out the maddening power brought about by the wear and tear.
It's far more difficult and lengthy than filtering out the remnants and resentment of demons! Moreover, this is the attrition power of an ancient dragon! Hearing Dulin's extremely irresponsible words…
Qiuhe was cursing inwardly. He had endured the filtering of demonic remnants and resentment before, but this time was different.
To put it more elegantly, it's the madness caused by the filtration of wear and tear; to put it bluntly, it's like channeling all the wear and tear from the Dragon King of the Jade Dragon into Qiuhe's body.
Then Dulin absorbed the powerful, usable magic contained within the wear and tear. How could a child possibly endure the millennia of wear and tear on a dragon king?
Slowly, blood began to trickle from Qiuhe's clenched teeth; blood flowed continuously from his eyes, nose, and ears. "Cough!" As his endurance reached its limit...
Qiuhe coughed up a large amount of blood, his eyes began to glaze over, and his vision blurred. Just as Qiuhe was about to faint and collapse...
A very reassuring arm slowly reached out from behind Qiuhe to support him and prevent him from falling. Zhongli supported Qiuhe's body.
The other hand slowly reached out and grasped Qiuhe's shoulder, and then the energy in Qiuhe's body began to flow from Zhongli's arm into him.
It's wear and tear; Zhongli is absorbing the wear and tear that Qiuhe's body couldn't filter out, the wear and tear that was absorbed into Qiuhe's body and brought him to the brink of death.
Now that the energy has been absorbed by Zhongli, Zhongli seems completely unaffected, simply closing his eyes and focusing intently on absorbing the energy that caused the damage.
After a long filtering process, the light connecting Qiuhe's dragon claw to Ruotuo Dragon King's abdomen gradually disappeared, and Qiuhe's right-hand dragon claw shattered into pieces.
The massive magic array beneath the feet of the Naga King Rota had dissipated, and the chains binding his body had vanished along with it. The Naga King Rota's agonizing roars had also ceased.
He lay there motionless with his eyes closed, but after a short while, the Dragon King Ruoduo slowly opened his eyes again.
But unlike her previous blood-red hue, the light in the eyes of the Dragon King Ruoduo now leaned more towards crimson, and as she slowly opened her eyes...
The next second, the limbs of the Naga King Rota began to thicken, and his body was expanding. As his body grew larger and larger, it continued to expand until his back reached the top of a mountain.
The body of the Naga King continued to expand, and a very strong earthquake struck the entire land of Liyue. Then, the Naga King slowly lowered its head to gather its strength.
The Dragon King Ruoduo suddenly raised his head and let out a tremendous roar that shook the entire world, his body expanding so much that it broke through the ground of the Dragon-Subduing Tree.
Its rapidly expanding body grew to a height of ten thousand feet in the blink of an eye, reaching the same height as the sky; its enormous form was now as massive as Mount Everest.
The colossal body of the Dragon Ancestor could now be seen everywhere in Teyvat.
