21 Chapter 21: Duan Lis bizarre trial! 3 (2/2)
His entire being was filled with a gushinggolden aura that was reminiscent of a deity!
His hair had also turned gold and extended long to his backs.
Streaks of lightning flashes around him every so often and four white wings made up from angelic feathers sprouted from his backs.
Right now, he became the center of focus for everyone. Even the eight abominations stopped in their tracks for a moment before continuing on when they felt his power rising beyond his previous limits.
He stood in the air majestically.
”It seems.. we might have a little hope.. ” said Kong Donghai as he clenched his fists in agitation.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The abominations are finally close enough for the battle to start.
Duan Li raised his right arm as he moved to point a single finger forwards.
”One finger starlight slash!”
A sharp beam of light was unleashed from his index finger as he swiped it from the left to right, up and down repeatedly like the conductor of an orchestra.
KABOOM!
BOOM!
Flashes of explosion reminiscent of multiple comets hitting the continent surrounded the eight abominations.
BOOM!!
KABOOM!
The symphony of destruction!
...
After the smoke disappeared, two of the abominations were reduced to dust while one was heavily injured. The rest continued on trampling the lands as if nothing had happened.
Duan Li's previous majestic form slowly dissipated.
”Only about ten seconds..” he sighed disappointingly in his heart.
”Time for a switch.” said Duan Li towards the two supreme generals Kong Donghai and Xang Lubai as he sat cross-legged on the spiritual Qi gathering formations to recuperate.
The both of them nodded as they exhaled and shouted to the soldiers;
”KILL THEM!!”
”YEAAAAAAHHH!!”
...
After a few hours of intense battle, they have finally won!
However, the cost was great..
Xang Lubai died along with 47 generals..
All three cannons were destroyed..
Countless soldiers were killed..
The walls of the titan race had been breached and a lot of civilians died..
80 percent of the titan's land had been reduced to ashes..
It would take decades for the titan race to be able to return to half of their former glory..
And perhaps a few centuries for them to return back to their peak strength..
Duan Li could only cast the blessings of Yggdrasil once to himself as it requires an abysmal amount of spiritual Qi and required one's aura to be at the extreme peak to succeed. As their battle does not allow him to have such a privillege, their losses escalated over time.
Even Kong Donghai had lost one arm and one leg in that battle and was currently laying on the ground undergoing emergency treatment. From his injuries, it doesn't seem like he will survive for long.
”Supreme general Duan Li.. we.. we.. did it.. ” he said while coughing up blood.
Duan Li nodded with sad smiles.
Kong Donghai smiled as his breathing slowed and his lifeforce dimmed. He knew that he was going to die, but knowing that they have won the most difficult battle in the history of the Tian continent, it matters not to him.
After a while, he passed away.
Duan Li looked at his surroundings and shook his head seeing their terrible state.
”All the abominations have been slained.. but the Ancient One had still yet to make a move.. and we are already.. ” he sighed.
Suddenly a general that was laying on the ground while being treated yelled out.
”G-guys! Look at the sun!”
”Huh?”
”The sun?”
Everyone including Duan Li looked upwards and squinted their eyes.
!!!!
The..
Sun..
Is..
Moving.. ?
The sun that was familiar to everyone else that shone brightly every morning to mark a new day after a good night rest, suddenly felt so eery to them.
The sun was wriggling..
As if, uncoiling itself..
Duan Li and some others used spells to focused their eyesight to see clearly on the sun.
Thud!
He fell to the ground on his knees..
”How.. what.. is.. this..?”
”So this.. is.. the Ancient One?”
For the first time ever.. Duan Li felt despair in his heart.
What he had seen, is truly something impossible to fight against.. even with his means.
What use was all that power that he holds against this?
The sun that everyone knew..
Was actually..
An extremely colossal long dragon!
For all this while, it had coiled together and fallen asleep deep into a slumber, only to awake at the predestined times..
The end times..
Bang!
”ARGHHHH!!” shouted a general smashing his fist onto the ground creating a large dent in frustration.
He was feeling extremely indignant. All of the people he knew for years, had already died in this battle.
And finally when he thought that they have won, before even conducting proper burial ceremony, not to mention celebration, the sun had suddenly turned to become their main enemy?
Who could even fight against the sun that was infinitely bigger than the whole Tian continent?
Despair!!
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Everyone fell to the ground on their knees..
”Its all over..”
”D-damn it all..”
...
ROARRRR!!
The roar of the sun dragon was the most terrifying that they have ever heard before in their whole life, akin to the bells, signifying one's death.
The sun dragon finally finished uncoiling its colossal body as it wriggled on the space.
Turning to look towards the Tian continent, its colossal body jerked, before it flashed and rammed the Tian continent into ashes in an instant.
BOOM!!
...
