Chapter 247: Chapter 219: After the Battle (3K) _1
Translator: 549690339
Riding on the rising dark clouds, four most outstanding figures were mounted on the Undead Legion, reminiscent of ghostly soldiers and generals.
Lord Tianyuan.
The Frost Giant Dragon, the blue-haired girl, and General Black Cloak.
Amongst them, the noble and unmatched Frost Giant Dragon was aiding the entire Undead Legion with its dragon power to take flight.
This is the moment when Sario realized his dream – even while bearing the weight of the Undead Legion, he was invincible in the world.
Even if it was him doing the carrying, and Boss Dead Bone being invincible, the dream was still the same.
General Duo Lai, who appeared in the form of a blue-haired girl, was not one of the Undead system. However, General Duo Lai would not be hindered by the racial system; she fell into a half-crouch, absorbing the endless Undead energy stored in the dimensional space before entering the Land of Challengereferring to when they were still in the real world- and then, expelling it out in a rush.
“Ah, phew, phew–”
Storing so much Undead energy, one might not know if it would cause a
bellyache.
General Duo Lai pondered with worry.
The surging Undead energy continuously flowed out of her body, washing away
the color from her entire face, turning it slightly pale.
But it also blew away her hair towards the sky, and her entire body radiated a terrifying aura.
Within the frenzied killing and invincible force, Lord Shepherd was a crucial cog. He was now fully integrated into the Dead Bone template, building a bridge with the power that originated from the Dead Bone, using all his strength to charge the legitimate Holy Mountain with a pirated version of the Wraith Sacred Mountain.
General Dead Bone had several hidden backup power sources, but none of them, whichever one they might be, could compare to the power supplied from the pirated Wraith Sacred Mountain right now.
I, the Lord, am the most potent backup power source!
At the same time, the aura of death from all directions also swarmed over. The enormous energy was dozens to hundreds of times that of a normal Dead Bone, and hundreds to thousands of times of that of a regular elite-level soldier.
When the energy is so vast that it causes ripples in space,
Let alone that the user of this energy was General Dead Bone, who was on the half-step image level of the Artistic Conception and Great Perfection.
Dead Bone didn’t dance solo; he was only acting as the commander of the army, leading all the soldiers of the Undead Legion to strike together and create the River of Underworld Swords.
The River of Netherworld darkens the world.
The Undead Legion was riding on the Stygian River;
Lord Wuji, using his body as a sword, transformed into the utmost sharp end of
the light;
The two big corps and the flesh giant beasts also roared as they charged in;
From four directions, four horrifying attacks simultaneously pounded into the
city of the monsters.
The rough city walls shattered and flew up like scraps of paper.
The monster tide surging outwards cracked apart, turning into dust.
The monster elites that were roaring in the light gradually turned into ashes.
And the monster city lord, who was sitting in the middle of the city and had barely had time to display his style and power, began to twist and crack under the radiating heavenly might from all four directions, shattering into pieces.
But nobody paid it any attention.
After unleashing his most extreme sword light, Lord Wuji turned his gaze towards the distance.
Lord of Kong Ming City was also gazing at the Frost Giant Dragon and the three figures standing upon it.
“The third epic?”
Lord of Youshan was also observing, with envy, awe, and a complex expression
on his face.
Lord of Roushan next to him was also surprised.
He wasn’t amazed at the power of the River of Netherworld. As Lord of Roushan, he had seen much, and this simulation battle was just child’s play in his eyes. If it hadn’t been for the sight of the Frost Giant Dragon, he would not have deemed it worth his full effort.
The power of the Netherworld River, which amazed his Lord, wasn’t particularly formidable in the eyes of Lord Roushan.
It was just the combined strength of the Army Soul Corps.
If Lord Roushan had one that suited him, a corps of flesh under his control; he could definitely unleash a stronger, more invincible demonic might.
However, Lord Roushan was looking at the figures on the Frost Giant Dragon’s back.
He seemed to faintly see a true king, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of utmost respect.
No,
This must be an illusion!
Mu Yuan could see that the two strongest individuals present were undoubtedly
Lord Wuji and Lord of Roushan.
Lord Wuji was immensely powerful. He was the epitome of swords, possessing the highest-level talent for swords, and held the supreme offensive power. Lord of Roushan was a third-order epic, and his base qualities, energy, skills, and so on were all stronger than Lord Wuji. But who would win if these two actually fight was uncertain.
Compared to these two, people like Duo Lai, Rakshasa, and Lu Liu, didn’t qualify to stand shoulder to shoulder.
Neither did General Dead Bone.
Indeed, Mu Yuan’s subordinate had exceeded norms and become a powerful individual. However, in Mu Yuan’s eyes, both Lord Wuji and Lord Roushan were exceptional figures, and they were a step above.
The Undead Legion couldn’t even be compared to the Silver Knights Corps, Boot Cat Corps, and other formidable Army Soul Corps.
His side was able to make it to the front lines in the final battle and break into the monster city, occupying one-fourth of the contribution, was honestly due to some opportunistic tricks and the fruit of their early preparations.
Mu Yuan was fully aware of this.
He didn’t believe that he was stronger than Wuji, Kong Ming, or Youshan.
They were all monstrous veterans, while he was just a greenhand whose subordinates were slightly stronger.
The big shot examiners outside the field were also aware of this.
However,
However!
Twilight Elephant City Lord sipped his tea, but ripples gently formed in the cup
of tea.
After gulping down a few drinks, Wu Qingyun said, “It seems that there are some promising young people in my Tai Xuan. Wonder where Lord Tianyuan is from, do you think he could be from Baiyun State?”
“You’re dreaming!” Huang Longjun from the next table said, “Such a spirited young man is most likely from our Chaoyang State.
Other leaders:
Do you mean to say that a young man, controlling the undead, enshrouded in black fog, riding a frost giant dragon against a mountain of white bones, is vibrant?
With a slight lift of his chin, the Lord of Han Yue City said, “I knew that the Lord Tianyuan, whom I recommended, is indeed not inferior to me.
The other leaders: “…”
Can we stick to the facts and have some shame?
If we compare purely on the basis of development time, Lord Tianyuan has already surpassed you by at least several blocks.
Of course, such a comparison is not entirely fair. The Tai Xuan Alliance is stronger than it was several years ago and can offer more support to newcomers; this year’s gold list rewards are also several times richer than before…
But even if we take all these factors into account, Lord Tianyuan still surpasses Lord Han Yue.
However,
“Talent is just that – talent. Many of those who once showed great talent later amounted to nothing…” Lord Qing Xin, cradling a white cat in her arms, her phoenix eyes watching the lords leaving the stage, slowly said, “Let me mentor him. With my guidance, he can grow and progress much faster.
What in the world are you thinking!
“This is the newcomer I recommended!”
“Besides hacking away, what else do you know how to do? I, on the other hand, can provide warmth and care on a spiritual level to this young gentleman…
To be fair, Lord Qing Xin really has trained numerous excellent newcomers. Among her disciples, three have even stepped into the legendary realm.
In contrast, Lord Han Yue really only knows how to hack away.
As the two leaders trade blows with their eyes, sparks fly in the air.
The Lord of Luo Fu Mountain took a sip of tea and said with a faint smile, Qing Xin isn’t wrong. Talent is just talent. No matter how potential Lord Tianyuan has, he is now merely a lord with a bit of power.
“We cannot impose too much pressure on him or hold overly high expectations. We must remember we are the ones leading the way.
“Of course, we cannot let him become too arrogant either. But I believe that excellent young men like Lord Tianyuan have their own thoughts and paths. We need to give the young sufficient time and stage for growth, let’s watch.” Twilight Elephant City Lord, Weixingzi, and others nodded their heads in agreement.
The Lord of Han Yue City is exceptionally talented, but it was only after stepping into the legendary realm that he made a reputation with his sword. They cannot focus too much on the talent of the newcomers or place too much hope and pressure on them due to the remarkable progress of Lord Han Yue City. This might have a counterproductive effect. After all, in the past, there were numerous talented individuals who ended up falling into obscurity or even dying.
There was a lord in their generation who had a talent called ‘The Rare Light of the Human Race1, which could summon rare rank human races with random remnant souls at an additional cost of Soul Sand.
This ability was extremely terrifying in the early stages.
That lord relied on this talent to outshine a lot of lords, including Twilight Elephant City Lord, Weixingzi and enjoyed a fleeting moment of fame.
But now, he is still just a Great Lord.
Because talent isn’t everything. The world of lords is ever-changing. It s common for talented individuals to die, or for unnoticed ones to stand out.
At times, opportunities matter more than talent.
Lord Tianyuan has talent, but that other lord is not comparable. The acceptance of three epics is enough to prove his uniqueness.
But no matter how talented Lord Tianyuan is, if he holds 99% of the nation’s pillar prospects, he still needs time to fulfill it.
At present, Lord Tianyuan’s strength is still quite limited. He is not ready to take part in the grand stage of the world, or even in Tai Xuan.
However, on this rookie stage of Dragon Court Competition, he has a fighting chance.
To some extent, he injects a decent amount of power to this unexceptional Tai Xuan team.
The Lord of Luo Fu Mountain was looking at the entourage around Lord Tianyuan.
Rakshasa with a green face and sharp teeth, Red Robe in a bloody garment, and Lu Liu in dark armor…
The strength that Lord Tianyuan could inject was perhaps not just decent.
The Lord of Luo Fu Mountain smiled from the heart.
“Here’s hoping you begin your dazzling dance from this stage.
In the standby area, one lord after another appeared.
“Lord Tianyuan has also showed up.”
“He managed to survive till the end? I didn’t think he was such a survivalist.” “Is it also possible that the Lord Tianyuan actually made it to the end?” The new lords appeared more relaxed, having rested for a relatively longer time. They did not look fatigued or anxious like the lords who just left the field. Jiang Luoxing and Wangba who are vying for first place felt confident that the great god Lord Tianyuan would not just be concentrating on survival.
Maybe he has fought countless bosses.
A soft clapping sound echoed.
The standby area began to change. By the time they came back to their senses, they were back in front of the big shots.
Lord of Luo Fu Mountain stroked his beard, laughed and said, “The military drill for this year is officially over. You all have performed quite well. I believe you will be the future of Tai Xuan.’
“Now, let’s announce the scores of each Lord in this drill.
All the new and old lords became tense.
Newcomers like Jiang Luoxing only thought of not coming last as a victory. Newcomers like Shen Lei were looking at Lord Tianyuan intently with anticipation and excitement.
The old lords had only one goal – the representative quota.
In such a scene, even Mu Yuan felt a little tense, saying to Dead Bone and Duo Lai through his mind:
“Considering our performance, we are approximately…99% safe, right?” Dead Bone went into deep thought, reflecting on past events.
Only with 99%, no wonder the lord was not fully satisfied. It needed to introspect and reflect on its past actions.
