Chapter 419: Dark Barrier (1/2)

While the sun was setting, the full moon was rising.

The full moon looked cold and desolate, it was illuminating the water of the lake and the people below with a pale moonlight.

In the distance, a sound spread through the air which surprised the crowd.

What had they just heard?

The crowd gazed into the distance and saw nine dragons moving through the air. The sound of dragons roaring could be heard as the dragons weaved around each other. They were far in the distance, but the sound was loud and clear for everyone.

The most shocking was that in the middle of those nine dragons, there was a throne, it was a golden throne. On the curtains surrounding that throne, there were multiple depictions of dragons.

At the same time, surrounding that throne, there was an army of strong cultivators flying through the sky in perfect formation. Those people had sharp expressions in their eyes and the Qi they were releasing was monstrously brutal.

“The King!” The crowd was shivering when they saw the spectacle, how majestic, he was being carried by nine dragons and the army strong cultivators were flying in formation to clear the path, how astonishing!

Everybody had already guessed who that person was: the king of Xue Yue.

“Roaaarrr….” The nine dragons roared with a majestic magnificence and the sound echoed in everyone’s ears. When they saw the king, the entire population started to bow.

The king was arriving and his arrival was accompanied by nine dragons.

“The king has even come to the national competition!” Thought the people in the crowd, they were all surprised. It seemed like this competition was going to be extremely important, the king even came in person.

The national competition was similar to the great competition of Xue Yu, it was something that happened every ten years, but for many people, they wouldn’t get to see the king in their entire lifetime.

The nine dragons flew down from the sky and immediately dove into the water, after a moment, the tops of the dragons flew out from the surface of the lake, they looked very skillful and agile.

Those nine dragons could fly through the sky and swim in the water, but the strangest thing was that the water of the lake didn’t even move from the dragons’ movements.

At that moment, the crowd was astonished by the spectacle of the nine dragons, their hearts were pounding out of their chests.

Those nine dragons were all dozens of metres in size, they could move through the water without even a ripple appearing, how majestic!

The entire atmosphere became calm. At that moment, nobody dared say a word. They were all looking at the throne which was now slightly above the surface of the water.

“Go!” A low voice sounded out but was distinctly loud enough for the entire crowd to hear.

When that person finished talking, the nine dragons shot into the air.
