Chapter 466: Eyes Gouged Out! (1/2)

The wildfire lit up the starry sky.

Blood was bubbling across the city.

There was a hero who was standing in the darkness.

There was a vicious-looking dragon opposite him——

Under the leaders.h.i.+p of Li Yifeng, several old Taoist priests of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau began to recite the ancient 'Dragon Slayer Song' around Li Muyang.

No one knew about the origin of the 'Dragon Slayer Song', only that it appeared during the 'Battle of the dragon ma.s.sacre', and then instantly spread throughout the Divine Continent.

No matter whether it was Taoists priests, sword masters, children or women, everyone could flowingly recite the 'Dragon slayer song'. When all citizens were united, the singing voice of countless people come together, the impact it had on dragons was enormous.

It could make dragons grow weak, reduce their attack, and turn their physical body fragile. It could disintegrate the rage and hostility in their hearts, leaving them with no way to exert their maximum fighting strength and destructive power.

On the contrary, it could improve the fighting spirits of the Dragon slayer warriors, by maintaining their morale at a high level, and enhance the power of their every attack.

If it were recited by the Buddhist monks and Taoist spiritual masters, it even had a healing and soul soothing effect on the wounded warriors on the battlefield.

Therefore, even if time had past like running water, tens of thousands of years had gone by since the 'Battle of the dragon ma.s.sacre', and the dragon clan had disappeared for more than tens of thousands of years, the 'Dragon slayer song' was still widely circulated, past onto generations, and almost reach the point where everyone knew how to recite it.

Of course, the effect was not obvious when recited by ordinary people due to the fact that it was not strengthened with qi. But if the 'Dragon slayer song' was recited by high-level monks and masters, it could really restrict a dragon, force their ident.i.ty to be exposed, and reveal their true face.

The Taoists of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau were all masters responsible for monitoring the sky for the Emperor, and predicting the future from the changes. They already possessed profound strength, otherwise how could they pry into the mystery known only to the heavens? And how could they cope with the retaliatory devour of the heavenly laws?

'Dragon Slayer Song', was melodious with an intense sadness.

The song described the scene of how the human race warriors courageously faced and slew the dragon clan.

In the first half, the warriors suffered a great loss, repeated defeats, and had several times almost died under the powerful attacks of the dragon clan.

At that time, the overall tone of the 'Dragon slayer song' was particularly sad, as though the Dragon slayer warriors would die at any time. And every person who was reciting, listening, were praying for the Dragon slayers, hoping that they could turn peril into safety, turnaround the danger, and turn defeat into victory.

The wind did not stop and the snow did not rest.

In the mists of the blizzard, Li Muyang was sat cross-legged, back straight like a spear.

On the Sword G.o.d Square, all eye were gathered upon him. The howling wind, the frantic snow, the vast square, all seemed to exist for him alone.

Li Muyang's face was expressionless, relaxed and visibly devoid of any emotional expression.

On the surface it seemed that the 'Dragon slayer song' did not agitate him, nor did it affect his essential qi and send his blood boiling. It failed to turn him into a dragon, who wanted to kill the dragon slayer warriors and the Taoist priests who recited the 'Dragon slayer song'——

However, the inside of Li Muyang's body was torturously hot and dry, and there seemed to be a pile of violent flames burning at his chest. He felt his body was being torn into pieces and then roasted into charcoal.

As Chu Xun had guessed, Li Muyang had immunity to 'The Subdue dragon and tame the tiger mantra' but it was the first time he came into contact with the 'Dragon Slayer Song'——He had very easily hypnotised himself when he used the 'Subdue dragon and tame the tiger mantra' for the first time.

He could not feel the flow of essential qi in the 'Dragon slayer song', but there was a natural repulse to the song. Just like the 'Dragon Slayer Song' was a natural enemy to the dragon clan.

Blazing fire consumed the body!

It was not just burning the body, but the heart and mind.

Li Muyang finally experienced that sort of feeling.

No, it should be said that he had once again experienced the feeling of being a child over and over again.

On countless late night, he was awakened from his sleep, feeling that his body and organs were about to incinerate. Back then everybody thought that it was because the heavenly lightning had penetrated his body, and that the fire qi could not be expelled, which led him to be attacked and a.s.saulted by the fire lightning again and again.

It wasn't until later that Li Muyang understood that it was not because the ray of heavenly lightning had penetrated his body, but a black dragon had drilled into his body.

Every time it blazed, he experienced a painful feeling of death. A lot of times, he thought he might as well die, so he would never have to bear the next fire again——

Li Muyang had not experience a torment like that for a long time.

But unexpectedly, today, on the Sword G.o.d Square, under the witness of countless people, Li Muyang had once again suffered that torturous pain of his body being incinerated.

What was most painful of all was that, while the inside of Li Muyang's body was withstanding the pain, there was not the slightest change of expression on his face.

He had to pretend that nothing had happened and nothing was going to happen.

Half was seawater and half was flames.
