Lord of the Magical Beasts-Chapter 691 - Massacring a Dragon with a Treasured Blade

Chapter 691: Massacring a Dragon with a Treasured Blade

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A pitch-black shell that was as alarmingly heavy as a mountain; tightly-knit scales glimmering with black light; giant, powerful claws gleaming coldly; icy, merciless eyes…

The once-cautious high and mighty Giant Dragon Lord had transformed into a massive Dragon Turtle before their eyes, releasing waves of majestic Energy Ripples! Rapidly, spiraling vortexes of air appeared on the surface of his body, creaking in the wind as they created thin Space Cracks.

The magnificence of the Energy Ripples was far greater than the group had expected. Even Yang Ling was shocked, his expression grave, let alone the Corpse Wizard King, Blood Angel Ophelia, and the rest of the group. Yang Ling instinctively formed a Wizard Seal and subconsciously stroked the handle of the Battle Soul Blade on his back, prepared for the worst.

The Giant Dragon Lord taking on his original form as a Dragon Turtle had threatened him greatly. That feeling was even more terrifying than when he had faced off against Borgans from the Algernon Divine Branch. A conservative estimate put the abilities of his opponent at least at the peak of an Eighth-level Divine Duty Expert!

“It’s been a million years! Muahaha, it’s you, you all that have forced me to release the seal!” The Giant Dragon Lord, who was now a huge Dragon Turtle, laughed manically, furious. He looked exceptionally terrifying in the darkness of the night, just before dawn would arrive. “A long time ago, I, Kaleisa, had sworn to never allow anyone to attack and occupy the Giant Dragon Castle. All of you must die, go and die!”

The Giant Dragon Lord, Kaleisa, roared as he pounced toward Yang Ling, who was not far away. He pressed forward like a mountain, the pressure overbearing. Even though he had a massive stature, his speed was still incredibly fast, not paling in comparison to powerful flying Magical Beasts like the Dark Dragon King and Horned Dragon King. In fact, he might even have been a little faster.

“Death Ripple, go and die!” The Corpse Wizard King let out a violent roar, instantly building on the strength of the group and releasing a bolt of his Death Ripple. The Blood Angel Ophelia, the Dark Dragon King, and the rest of the group followed closely behind, coordinating perfectly with each other as they launched fierce attacks!

“Hmph, you’re asking for death!”

The Giant Dragon Lord let out a cold grunt, then waved his right hand to tear open a Space Crack a few meters long, devouring the Corpse Wizard King’s Death Ripple. After that, he disregarded the Blood Angel Ophelia’s giant blade and slammed his claw fiercely into the body of the Dark Dragon King, tearing off a piece of his flesh.

Roar…

After letting out a pathetic cry, the Dark Dragon King took to the skies, rapidly pulling back in retreat. He had not expected the opponent to be that powerful. At the same time, following a dull thump, the Giant Dragon Lord who had turned into a Dragon Turtle suffered no damage, while Ophelia felt her arm turn numb from the impact. She had only managed to leave behind a faint mark on the shell on the opponent’s back, even after layering on the strength of the Corpse Wizard King, Horned Dragon King, and the rest of the group.

The Giant Dragon Lord, who had turned into a Dragon Turtle, not only had powerful attacks, but its defenses had also reached an alarming level!

“Attack, attack together, Death Ripple!”

“Thundering Strike!”

…

After recovering from his shock, the Corpse Wizard King reacted quickly. He instructed the group to surround and attack the Giant Dragon Lord, releasing stronger and stronger attacks. They surrounded their opponent with their Demon God Battle Formation and their coordination. However, even with their strongest attacks, they were unable to severely damage the Giant Dragon Lord, who had powerful defenses. All they could do was leave a few marks on his scales.

“Angel Battle Formation, you… Just who are you people?” Even though he’d managed to fend off the repeated attacks of the group so far, the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa was getting more and more surprised.

Originally, he had thought that he would be easily able to kill Yang Ling and his group after taking on his original form. He did not expect the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and the rest of the group to be quite so powerful. The Demon God Battle Formation that allowed them to build on the strength of the other members of the group quickly made him think of the Angel Battle Formation from the City Amongst the Clouds, as well as his immense hatred toward the team of Twelve-winged Angels that had led various factions and destroyed the Giant Dragon Castle back then.

“Hehe, you old turtle, you’re dead meat. Facing our Magical Beast Divine Branch, you’d be dead meat even if you turned into an Ancient Giant Dragon, much less an old Dragon Turtle!” The Corpse Wizard King touched the blood on his face, then led the group to launch wave after wave of fierce attacks.

If they couldn’t defeat him in two hours, they’d take four. Even if they couldn’t severely injure this old turtle at that moment, they’d exhaust the opponent till he fell!

Dead meat?

Kaleisa felt a pain in his heart when he saw the Giant Dragon Castle completely destroyed. The pitiful scene from a million years ago surfaced in his heart once again. If he could, he would rather live and die together with the Giant Dragon Castle than disguise himself as a pathetic human any longer. He did not wish to live on like an ant. However, in order to investigate the reason his tribespeople had suddenly lost connection with the Dragon God back then, in order to one day be able to seek revenge against the City Amongst the Clouds and the other powerful factions, he had no choice but to tolerate it.

Roar…

After letting out a furious roar, tinged with a little sadness, Kaleisa fended off the attacks of Ophelia, the Giant Ape King, and the rest of the group with his sturdy shell, then slammed his claw down to force the Dark Dragon King back before accelerating once again. He took to the skies, charging forward without care, attempting to force his way out of the embattled castle.

Boom…

The Nine-headed Snake Hydra took on her original form and blocked the path of Kaleisa, but she was slammed back before she could entangle the opponent. A few Twin-legged Flying Dragons, who had not managed to avoid the impact in time, instantly got slammed down, tumbling onto the ground.

“It’s too late for you to try to run now!” Just as the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa thought that he was about to escape the battle, his eyes detected a sudden movement. Yang Ling, who had been prepared for this, was blocking his path.

Buzz…

Yang Ling decisively cast the Space Bind Wizard Technique and took the Battle Soul Blade from his back, then charged straight for the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa. He was filled with bloodlust, his Battle Soul Blade turning into a bolt of icy light as it glided through the sky, and he pounced in front of Kaleisa with lightning-fast speed.

Red blade aura?

Kaleisa’s pupils dilated when he saw the Wizard Technique cast by Yang Ling and the red blade aura on the Battle Soul Blade, feeling an unprecedented sense of danger. Looking at the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and the rest of the group, who were surrounding him closely, and then seeing the Golden Roc guarding the group by the side, he decided to advance instead of falling back. Clenching his teeth he punched toward Yang Ling’s chest.

It was clear that it would be difficult to charge out of the embattlement now that he was surrounded by the Magical Beast Army; however, it was important to attack the leader first. If he could capture the young man, Yang Ling, who looked like the leader of the group, he might be able to charge out of the area without shedding a drop of blood. Even if he would be unable to charge out, he could at least take Yang Ling down with him before he died.

Creak…

Kaleisa was focused on severely injuring Yang Ling and capturing him as a hostage. He disregarded Yang Ling’s Battle Soul Blade that was only inches away from him, clenching his teeth as he accelerated once again. Originally, he had thought that no matter how sharp Yang Ling’s Battle Soul Blade was, he would be unable to penetrate his scales, just like Ophelia, the Dark Dragon King, and the rest of the group had been. But unexpectedly, just as he was about to slam his claw down and severely injure Yang Ling, something happened.

After a sharp ringing noise was heard, Yang Ling’s lethal Battle Soul Blade sliced open Kaleisa’s thick shell and scales with immense force, cutting deeply into his flesh and creating great anguish. In that instant, blood spurted out like a fountain. What was even more terrifying was that the red aura enveloping the Battle Soul Blade quickly entered his body, directly attacking his soul. It was as if a thousand sharp daggers were stabbing at Kaleisa’s Soul Defense all at once!

“Soul Explosion!”

After succeeding in his attack, Yang Ling pulled out his blade and dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding Kaleisa’s giant claw. He attacked Kaleisa’s soul once again with the Soul Explosion Wizard Technique. Then, he teleported to Kaleisa’s abdomen using his Wind Evasion Wizard Technique and aimed straight for the opponent’s heart before slicing down with his blade!

Chitter…

Under the impact of the Soul Dissolving Wizard Technique that had turned into the red blade aura, Kaleisa’s Soul Defense was on the verge of crumbling. Coupled with the close-ranged Soul Explosion, he could no longer sustain his defenses. Yang Ling’s fierce Soul Attacks forcefully tore open a hole in his Soul Defense, and he heard his brain rattle. His brain felt both itchy and painful. It was as if a million ants had crawled into his skull!

“Surrender, join our Magical Beast Divine Branch and you can get anything you want!” Yang Ling built on his momentum and attacked, his sharp Battle Soul Blade dancing in the wind, rapidly leaving deep wounds on the body of the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa. Soul Dissolving, Soul Explosion, Soul Assimilating Light Ray… The sharp Soul Attacks came in waves, each one more powerful than the last, quickly expanding the hole in Kaleisa’s Soul Defense.

“Ah… Law of Souls, high-level Soul Attacks! You… Just who are you?” shouted Kaleisa in shock, after once again being sliced by Yang Ling. His head was in immense pain, and he was rapidly retreating as if he’d seen a ghost.

An ordinary Divine Duty Expert would not have been able to break through his physical defenses with his sturdy scales, and his Soul Defenses had also reached an unprecedented state after tens of thousands of years of bitter training. Even though he was still far weaker than the City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds who had masterminded the massacre of the Giant Dragon tribe, he would not have a problem dealing with the Twelve-winged Angels under him.

He did not expect to have encountered an incredible genius, or perhaps a terrifying monster, like Yang Ling. His physical attacks were far superior to that of an average Divine Duty Expert, while his Soul Attacks had reached an unbelievable state!

Magical Beast Divine Branch…could this young man be the Core Deity of the Magical Beast Divine Branch?

Thinking back to the poster he had seen before, thinking about how it had said that the Core Deity of the Magical Beast Divine Branch would soon descend, Kaleisa trembled and turned to run without regard, using any means at his disposal. Even though he was extremely powerful, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could deal with a Core Deity. Even the Core Deity of a minor Divine Branch was not someone an average person could deal with, much less the notorious City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds!

“There’s no way you can escape! Surrender while you can!”

After letting out a cold laugh, Yang Ling shadowed Kaleisa closely, his fierce attacks pounding down on him without stopping, completely crumbling his Soul Defense. Currently, the Magical Beast Army had no shortage of ordinary Divine-level Magical Beasts, but Yang Ling would not let a powerful Magical Beast like Kaleisa off that easily!

Taming a Dragon Turtle with abilities at the peak of an Eighth-level Divine Duty Expert was much greater than taming a thousand Low-level Deity Giant Dragons!
