Chapter 475 - Returning back to Ayindril (Part-1) (1/2)

Frost Flames gawked at the large barely clothed figure that suddenly appeared behind Ryuu, it looked like an enlightened person who has reached inner peace and he radiated it all around, it made them feel safe and secure, the figure upon close inspection looked like someone who had to spend aeons mediating to reach nirvana, the serene smile with half-closed eyes made them feel as if the person was someone they could rely upon, someone who would understand them and then wash away all their sadness, their worry.

The calming sensation disappeared all of a sudden as the figure's head suddenly turned back completely in an extremely creepy manner as another face took its place, a face whose eyes roamed over them like some hungry beast looking at its prey sending a shiver down their collective spines, then it opened its jaws as its long tongue poured out with drool dripping from it, then it titled its head in an impossible angle before letting out an ear-splitting and soul rendering scream.

If the previous figure meant peace and tranquillity the current one made them feel unnatural and wrong, it made them feel as if the cold hand of fear was gripping their hearts, a few even took a step back unconsciously.

Ryuu simply rolled her head before he spoke with a sigh, ”What kind of cultivator are you all I just activated my domain and you all are scared out of your minds, simply pathetic, but what else could I expect from trashes like you.”

As he spoke the figures head returned to normal as the long tongue still wagged, while droll dripped from it, the eyes of the creature began to move independently roaming over each of them, as Ryuu spoke with again, ”You wanted power right? Well, let me show you my definition of power.”

As he spoke Ryuu activated his Divine Body, as a large silhouette of a Dragon appeared behind the figure, but unlike before the Dragon had four of its eyes open, with the last pair being partially open, Ryuu felt a rush of power whereas his opponents felt just the opposite, they felt as if their powers were being sapped from them, they simply wanted to prostrate and beg for mercy.

Jethrar, since he was born, had always been pampered especially when his Divine Body was known, since then he was treated like a King, his mother who used to be his father's mistress became his main wife, he was so used to be worshipped around and touted as a genius that he used to look down on others, his puppet collection most of them were his fellow pupils, some even family whereas the rest were his enemies, because of his constitution his master always looked another side even when he killed his teacher's son and added him to his collection after all might is right.

And now for the first time, Jethrar felt fear, a very crippling fear that made him want to run away, the humanoid creature and the silhouette of dragon scared him, but what made him feel really afraid was the figure, who was controlling the humanoid and the Dragon, he was afraid of Ryuu.

'What is this? What is this unnatural feeling of fear, is this why Rain Sword Ryuu's bounty was so large, they made a mistake it should be even higher, he is not someone I cannot fight against I have to flee if I use my puppets I can buy some time and retreat for now but one day I…..eh?'

He let out a surprised gasp as he looked at the puppets that he was controlling, he was so busy thinking about Ryuu that he had failed to perceive that he had lost control of the majority of his puppets, his puppets numbering over a thousand was cut in half even then with each passing second it was getting difficult to maintain them.

Similar was the case with Chainyu he had hoped to use his ability to control Ryuu's blood and use it against him, but all of sudden he could no longer control his powers, it was as if his powers have rebelled against him, as such he could not help but shout out loud, ”What did you do to me?”

A low chuckle like a rumble of thunder came from Ryuu as he spoke in an arrogant, ”I am the epitome of everything Good or Evil, I am made up of both Holy and Demonic, everything begins with me and ends with me for I am the Emperor, a Conqueror, the Beloved Child of Heavens and you have rebelled against me, made a futile attempt to touch me, to reach and tarnish my glory, a crime inconceivable as such disappear from my sight as your repentance for your crimes.”

With that Ryuu raised his right hand along with his sword and mimicking his motion so did the humanoid figure, the l.u.s.t for blood and carnage was shining in its eyes like some depraved being, when all of a sudden a giant sword, a complete replica of Ryuu's appeared in its right hand and then flowing Ryuu's motion it swung forward.

Ryuu's sword attack was something like they had never seen before, and to them, it looked as if the sword slashed had opened a portal to another realm and a dazzling large army of some Celestial Emperor, had jumped out of the portal to slaughter them.

They watched with horror as the large army consisting of countless infantry and Cavalry charging at them blotting their view, yet they could not move from its path, they could hear their warcry their murderous aura, their indomitable spirit, they wanted to run further away from the charging army, they wanted to hide and hope that everything was a nightmare, but it was for nought as they found themselves rooted to the spot unable to move at all.

A few of them erected defensive barriers while others used various escape means to escape to run away but it was for nought, as the army seemed to phase through the barrier as if without so much as a ripple as if the barrier was nothing but air no it was as if a vacuum.

Those that chose to run they soon found themselves unable to leave the barrier while the attacks tracked them down and reached no matter how much they tried to dodge and in a blink of an eye the enemy were all slaughtered except one whose name was Frost Flames.

Never in million years of her life was she filled with so much fear, even her master had felt to instil as much fear as she felt now, as the largest remaining portion of the once near about a two thousand strong armies of Demonic cultivators was a red mist that was rapidly fading.
