Chapter 1482: Chapter 1482: The Mystery Unravels

Two chains and four sickles were utterly unable to stop them; the vines, already corroded by dark mists, kept shattering incessantly.

Crack crack crack...

Although the spellcasting Green Dragons could move, their focus and reaction speed when casting spells were inevitably affected.

The chains and sickles struck their bodies, causing Green Dragon after Green Dragon to fall to the ground. It wasn’t that the chains and sickles possessed great force; rather, it was because their spellcasting was abruptly interrupted, resulting in a backlash from the spell.

Moreover, the Corrosion from the Touch of Darkness was too severe, especially in this Dungeon city tainted by the power of the Ancient Gods, where the power of the Ancient Gods could reach its zenith.

And after the previous blood sacrifice, Li Yao was now able to more freely control the body of the Ancient God.

It wasn’t that the blood sacrifice was immensely powerful, but rather that the several Ancient Gods were too formidable. When they descended, four of them ganged up on one, devoured the strongest Ancient God, and being the Void Gods that excel in spirit and soul, not a shred of consciousness was left from that strongest Ancient God.

It merely, as an instinct before death, separated its remaining body, which then had no possibility of revival.

Li Yao had obtained two parts successively, and now, having combined them and with a Bloodline Connection to him, he could use the body of the Ancient God even more effortlessly.

Although the tentacles were not yet sturdy enough, the crazy ability to erode and revive was too formidable, allowing Li Yao to mobilize a certain amount of the Ancient God’s body power in the state of combat.

And no longer, like before, could he only passively stack attributes or absorb the life force of a certain creature to gain corresponding attributes.

This was the real reason Li Yao dared to make a move in this place.

As the Green Dragons fell to the ground one after another, temporarily suffering from the backlash, the chanting of spells also came to an abrupt halt, and the vines assaulting Li Yao stopped.

Only countless misty tentacles remained, protecting Li Yao at the center and wildly dancing corroded vine tentacles, while Li Yao’s current Soul Form, which was even closer to the Void Form, appeared more diabolical, resembling a true Demon.

"What are you all standing there for? If you had all acted together just now, we could have already captured this Demon," the middle-aged Green Dragon flashed a hint of fear in his eyes; not fear of Li Yao, but of the wildly dancing Touch of Darkness. He could feel that the source of his pride, the protective power of the Dream, had no resistance against the Corrosion, as if the two were inherently one and the same.

Li Yao was not at all bothered by this; his brazen attitude was also for this reason. The Dream, being inherently a form of elusive soul and Void, with the Ancient Gods as one of the most formidable entities in the Void realm besides the Void Lord, naturally had ultimate control over the Void and the soul.

Although the Green Dragons’ protective Power of Dreams was filled with life, just as there is no absolute light and darkness in this world, the power of the Dream is actually the life within the Void.

What truly represents the power of life is the Flame of Life of the Red Dragon, not the Power of Dreams.

"Dragon Clan’s inherent arrogance has blinded you, have you yet to recognize the situation? I came here because if I really wanted to do something, the number of Green Dragons here, though large, might not be able to stop me. If I had commenced a massacre just now, how many of you would still be able to see the sunlight again? I reiterate once more, it was the two foolish Druids who harbored ill intentions. They were the ones who slandered me, and I am here with my Legion to resolve the conspiracy of the Ancient Gods."

"We are allies, not enemies. If you still stubbornly believe that the nature of one’s power can determine their alignment of good and evil, then all it takes is for the Green Dragon Princess to say ’leave,’ and I will immediately depart. Moreover, it would be very easy for you to kill me in this form, but it would not be any loss to me."

The Green Dragons looked at each other with furrowed brows, contemplating Li Yao’s words.

The Green Dragon Princess came to her senses and said, "Alright, the Deputy Leader just wanted to test Mr.’s strength to see if it was sufficient to fulfill our trust. After all, this matter is of great importance, concerning not just the life and death of us here, but also the plotting of the ancient gods. That’s why we might have been offensive, wasn’t it, Deputy Leader? Now apologize to Mr."

In this world, everything respected strength. Although they had many grievances, given the current situation, they were no match for Li Yao if they couldn’t revert to their true forms, and Li Yao had also been very measured in his actions, resulting in no real harm to anyone.

As for the two Druids, they were just recruits. Dead is dead, and with such inadequate strength, what use would their living be anyway?

The middle-aged Green Dragon, though reluctant, still managed to force a stiff smile and a slight bow before respectfully stepping back behind the Green Dragon Princess.

He completely abandoned the will to compete and began to behave accordingly.

Li Yao also breathed a sigh of relief and politely continued, "The Princess keeps mentioning the grave importance, but I still don’t know what the matter actually is."

The Green Dragon Princess sighed and said, "It’s not very difficult for the Legion of the Magma Fortress to find us, they pretend to attack but in reality, they’re misleading us. However, they don’t know that some of our kin have already turned into Earth Spirits and infiltrated their ranks, learning of their intentions."

"Does this conspiracy have something to do with their feigned attack?" Li Yao frowned.

"Of course. Their Demon Marshal has set up a huge Array here, which not only seals our transformations but also silently extracts the Power of Dreams from us. Combined with the blood of our captured kinsfolk, they are enhancing the Burst-Scale Dragon Beasts. From what I know, they have used the blood of Giant Dragons to nourish millions of them over hundreds of years," the Green Dragon Princess said with eyes filled with worry. "And this number is growing every second, while we are just moving sources of energy."

This time even Li Yao’s expression changed. Burst-Scale Dragon Beasts are actually one of the apex predators on the Neutral Continent.

They possess a strong Bloodline Connection to the Ancestor Dragons. More importantly, they have undergone a Mutation due to some bizarre power. These Dragon Beasts’ bodies are impervious to blades and spears, and with the progress of battle, their scales continue to grow and shed.

The shed scales are like bombs densely launched by fighter jets, and the explosive power of the scales is tremendous, capable of instantly killing tanks within the same rank.

To a player character, especially those in close combat, a single Burst-Scale Dragon Beast is nothing short of a nightmare, let alone a million.

If a million Burst-Scale Dragon Beasts were to mobilize, it would really be an invincible air force. There are probably fewer than ten types of military forces in this world that could defeat such an air force.

Li Yao, confident as he may be, was not so arrogant to think that his current army could confront such a terrifying monster Legion. At least at this stage, Li Yao’s Dragonfly Army might just barely be able to put up a fight.

But how many Dragonflies did Li Yao have? He estimated that most would be wiped out, with the number of Burst-Scale Dragon Beasts killed being less than half the number of fallen Dragonflies...
