Chapter 272: Chapter 29: The Ancestor’s Three Swords that Stabilize the Universe

"King Ji, is there any way to contact the Unbounded Emperor?" King Liang Chen spoke in a very weak voice, his skill not only taken over by the burning serpent, but he also did not know what skill the serpent used. An unknown flame rose within him, eroding his flesh and Magic Power incessantly, merely suppressing this consumed all his strength.

"If I could contact the Unbounded Emperor, this beast would have been made into snake soup long ago."

It seemed as though he had heard King Hei’s complaint, and a flash of red light flickered through the white fog.

The next second, the mutant beast created by King Hei was tightly entwined by the burning serpent, and in the span of a breath, it was strangled into nothingness.

Then, the serpent’s mouth aimed at King Hei, and a sea-like molten flame rushed toward him.

"Dark Demon Rips the Sky!" King Hei endured the backlash of his skill, pushing his Magic Power to the limit, his large hands tearing through the molten flame, barely preserving his life.

"Quicksand Attack!"

"Pear Blossom Rain Kill!"

King of Shate and King Liang Chen attacked immediately, but unfortunately, one sweep from the burning serpent blocked both their attacks, stirring not even the slightest ripple.

"Divine Array, Kill!" Cang King used all his strength as if his life depended on it, relying on the divine array to continuously suppress the serpent’s power, reducing its level.

Unfortunately, the serpent’s power was too strong, and in front of it, the divine array was just like scratching an itch. Even with 30 percent of its power suppressed by the divine array, it could still easily slaughter the rulers of the seven nations of Ambra.

As Cang King’s strength depleted, the divine array completely shattered, and the oppressive aura emitted by the divine serpent grew even more terrifying.

A red light rippled out like water waves, and the five rulers immediately vomited fresh blood, suffering heavy injuries.

"This beast seems even more formidable than recorded in the scriptures." Cang King coughed violently, unwilling to give up, wanting to escape, but under the pressure of the burning serpent, even moving a finger was a luxury. The legacy of the divine array in Cang Country, if he died here, the divine array might very well be lost, and Cang Country would then slowly retreat from the stage of Ambra.

"It’s about to transform into a dragon, what do you think?" King Liang Chen gave a bitter smile.

King Hei said gravely, "If this serpent doesn’t die, Ambra will ultimately still meet its destruction."

"But who can deal with it? Even if we seek help from the empire now, it’s too late," sighed the king of Shate helplessly.

Seeing these humans lose their capacity to resist, the burning serpent first approached King Pingyao, swallowing him whole—powerful humans had always been the best nourishment for a Demon Beast’s growth.

From ancient times to the present, every time the burning serpent awakened, it would cause a huge disaster in Ambra, devouring a great number of lives to ensure it had enough energy for evolution during its subsequent three-hundred-year slumber.

This premature awakening was partly because it had reached a bottleneck as a Demigod, and partly because it felt a threat.

As for this threat,,, the burning serpent turned its head toward the ground, and with a sweep of its tail, knocked a piece of small iron junk out from the underground.

Under sheer brute force, Lu Hong tumbled around inside the steel fortress, desperately activating his skill, which then dissipated.

Looking at the tiny human on the ground, the burning serpent brought its eyes closer, extremely curious as to why this weak human brought it a sense of threat.

Never mind that, just eat him!

The burning serpent made up its mind and bit down.

"Heavenly God Descends!"

Hiding clumsiness, one would soon be hidden entirely; upon the loud call, divine light suddenly appeared.

Lu Hong threw a punch, hitting the burning serpent on the head, causing it such pain that it retreated repeatedly, howling in anger.

Was this the power that made it feel threatened? the burning serpent wondered, is it? It seemed not.

"Is this kid Baron Yi Tian from the Sacred Empire?" King Hei recognized Lu Hong’s identity at a glance.

Cang King also faltered slightly, surprised that the kid had such an identity, recalling what Lu Hong had previously said, and tried to correlate the situation.

"But he’s still no match for the burning serpent," King Liang Chen said gravely, "If he were a Third Transition warrior now, maybe he could compete with it using a Secret Technique skill. But his foundation is too weak to have a chance."

Yes, King Liang Chen was right. Although Lu Hong had repelled the burning serpent with a punch, his own left arm was completely disabled from the recoil, and combined with his previously shattered right hand, both of Lu Hong’s arms were now incapacitated.

What now?

Watching the burning serpent’s breath coming toward him, Lu Hong’s mind raced, continuously calling upon the power of the three holy swords.

As divine light surged into the sky again, the three holy swords responded from afar, appearing mighty.

Unfortunately, under the serpent’s attack, even the holy swords couldn’t resist a breath’s time, turning into starlight and retreating back into Lu Hong’s body.

Was he about to die?

The high-temperature flames were inches away; even before touching Lu Hong, his hair had already ignited.

At this moment, the divine eye trembled slightly, and a powerful thought crossed the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, entering Lu Hong’s mind.

"So you’re here." Lu Hong’s lips curved into a smile, and in an instant, the torrent of flames rolled back, the burning serpent sensing a familiar aura, and frantically twisting its body trying to escape.

"You fled without a fight back then, do you think I would let you go?" Lu Hong took a step forward, grabbed the serpent’s tail, and solely with brute strength, he dragged it back.

Such earth-shattering changes left the rulers bewildered, wondering what had happened.

"He’s been possessed by a divine-level powerhouse!" Cang King shouted lowly, "Ambra is saved!"

"Not necessarily," King Hei said gravely, "The burning serpent has reached near-divine levels; it might take a Heavenly God himself to subdue it."

King Shate faintly activated his Magic Power, immediately experiencing a scorching backlash that left him in severe pain, then he helplessly said, "Why guess anymore, just watch, there’s no chance to escape anyway, we’ll know the outcome soon. If we’re going to die, let’s die together."
