Chapter 294 (1/2)

A whirlpool of bright golden energy surrounded two blond-haired maidens while people watched on from the sides. The moment they touched a sort of trans took them over. Their bodies were now floating up in the air while the two young girls were holding their hands together, not letting go as they spun around in place.

Not far away from the girls was another person that was going through a transformation. The Lightning Emperor Leigong that was about to fade away was just getting his second wind. His body was reconstructing itself as many tiny wisps of energy condensed onto him.

”Not sure how this is possible but I'm not complaining…”

”How could this be… what is this wretched light!”

Zhang Dong had now stopped the Archdemons attack that he shot out through its mouth again. The dark rays were frozen in the air while he kept his finger pointed forward.

”Be turned to cheese!”

With a small flick, the demonic energies did a U-turn and shot towards the creature that fired it off. The monster put up some defenses but the demonic rays managed to do some damage. This damage was fast to close up as this creature's vitality was quite high.

”You can't regenerate if there are no particles left to regenerate…”

A massive spike in holy energy caused the whole academy to rumble once more. This power was many times above whatever the Archdemon could output and left the Principal and other magicians in awe.

Zhang Dong wanted to end this fast with the strongest attack possible. How long his new power boost would last was unknown, he needed to use this energy before it ran out.

”This matters not astral being, you will fall like the rest!”

The ugly monster wasn't having any of this as it charged forward once more. If the ranged attack didn't work then maybe close range combat would seal the deal. Unfortunately for the Archdemon during his charge, its opponent vanished for a split second.

”Think fast!”

With a swift kick to the face, the Lord of Pain was sent tumbling into some buildings. This kick was packed with holy lightning energy causing the monster excruciating pain, its screams were quite audible to everyone here.

What followed was a one sided beat down. The denizens of this world looked on as the white haired Leigong kicked the huge demon around as if it was a football. There was no end to the hits and the creature had no way of countering the faster opponent. Soon it found itself floating up in the air with many shattered bones and broken teeth.

”yOu...sHaLL… pErIsH...bY…mY…hAnD”

”Not if you perish first.”

Zhang Dong first had to incapacitate his enemy. With swift kicks and punches, he had caused some surface-level damage to make the monster's regeneration to kick in. He had noticed that during this period the monster would lose most of its speed. The last part was flinging it up into the air as it didn't possess any flying capabilities that he was aware of.

There was also the bonus of making the monster crash into the giant demon repelling barrier that this academy was surrounded with. This protective bubble was just what he needed to keep this monster in one place.

When the creature connected with this shield he could see the demonic energies and it counteracted each other. It was causing it some harm but it wasn't enough to kill it. This type of barrier was there to keep things out and not to destroy them.

”Okay, wait there, this is going to be a big one…”

Another light show was started that piqued everyone's interest. The spirit named Leigong turned into a large sphere of energy that started expanding in all directions. This energy egg started floating up while constantly growing in size till a cracking sound was heard.

”By the gods… what is that?”

”C-could it be…”

The stunned magicians below could see a giant webbed wing appearing from the torrent of bright energy. It was truly gigantic and followed by another one to the other side. Soon a large golden dragon head was seen by everyone. The people that witnessed Zhang Dong's arena fight remembered this head but not it was attached to the rest of the flying beast.

”A-ancient D-dragon?”

”How is it so big?”

The Principal and Vice-Principal called out with wide-opened eyes. The large dragon that they were seeing was at least fifty meters in height. The wing spawn was even larger which made this majestic creature look even bigger than it already was.

Thanks to Beatrice and Isabella, Zhang Dong was able to reach a state of half-step into the nascent soul. With that, he was now able to manifest his soul beast out into the open. He chose it as it possessed quite the ferocious breathing attack that worked wonders on demonic beings alike. It was backed by holy and lightning energies as well as plasma, this would make quick work of this Archdemon.

”iMpOsSiBlE! HoW cOuLd oNe oF tHe oLd oNeS sTiLl bE aLiVe?”

The Lord of Pain shouted while fighting against the magical barrier that was keeping him from regenerating fully. Regretfully for the red monster, it was too late for him to flee. His opponent in the form of a golden dragon was already charging up his breath attack.

'Ancient Dragon? Old One?'

The names that were getting thrown around made Zhang Dong raise a brow while looking at his soul beast taking aim. It seemed that his soul beast's form was quite popular in this world. Maybe thanks to this he would be able to gain some notoriety, luckily for him, most people liked golden holy element dragons.
