Chapter 502: Mysteries enemies appear
The combined might of a thousand warriors turned to a torrent of terrifying energy that seemed to shake even the transcendents. Their combined energy then transformed into a red dragon that stretched for tens of miles.
The red dragon’s aura was many times stronger than even ordinary transcendents of first order.
Roar!!!
And then the red dragon, like trying to swallow heaven, dived upon Apollo and Astraea. It immediately seemed to swallow them. Everyone watching from afar watched with awe, feeling the power of the legion of red dragons from the Crystal Dragon Clan.
Now everyone wanted to know the answer to a single question—could Apollo and Astraea survive such an attack?
After all, while they had reached the Transcendent Realm this early in this era, no one truly knew how powerful they actually were.
Balerion looked with excitement, hoping to see utter annihilation, but his expression changed quite quickly.
The four commanders were the ones to feel something as they were transcendent beings. A calm voice rang through the battlefield.
"Nice army formation, but calling it a red dragon is a bit of a stretch." A faint smile appeared on her face. "It’s at best a big lizard." Astraea’s voice echoed as starlight seemed to gather around her.
Then, the gigantic red dragon froze completely.
The colossal manifestation trembled violently, as though an invisible hand had seized its tail and pinned it in place.
No matter how fiercely it struggled— it could not move even an inch.
It seemed to be like lizard who was being caught by it’s tail unable to move at all.
This situation shocked everyone, as the entire thing was too surprising for those watching.
They all was shocked as the power of the manifestated dragon was terrifying and can easily defeat or even kill a new first order transcendent and yet it seemed nothing if front of Astraea.
The thousand soldiers, seeing this once again, burst out with all their strength, and this time they go all out. The red dragon, filled with the combined power of a thousand soldiers, roared violently as crimson flames exploded from its mouth, carrying enough destructive force to incinerate mountains and rivers. But it seemed meaningless.
"This lizard is being bit noisy." Astraea’s indifferent voice rang out once more. Even now, she still hadn’t taken them seriously.
Bang!
Endless starlight flooded the world, covering hundreds of miles. Then the starlight condensed into two gigantic palms filled with terrifying power.
And like swatting an insignificant insect—those colossal palms crashed down upon the red dragon.
BOOM!!!
The red dragon without any trouble was squashed between the colossal starlight hands. The space shattered, and heaven and earth trembled as shock waves traveled tens of thousand miles.
Its massive body exploded into countless streams of chaotic energy before collapsing completely under Astraea’s overwhelming strength.
The thousand soldiers almost collapsed instantly, but at the last moment, four commanders made their move and were barely able to hold them together.
Balerion was standing a bit far; even then, he was almost sent flying by the shock waves.
Astraea remained standing in middle of the sky with calm aura as clearly the attack was nothing to her but it still stirred the heart of everyone watching as she became equally mysterious for them.
They if before expected her to be just a new first order transcendent but know they started to doubt that.
This battle might become interesting for the spectators, but for the Baleron and the commanders from the ancient crystal dragon clan, the situation was opposite. They didn’t want to meet mysteries and the powerful transcendent.
The four commanders were the ones who understood more clearly, especially the strongest commander of the Red Dragon legion. he was a second order transcendent and hence he was clear as even for him it wouldn’t be this easy to destroy the red dragon manisfestation.
"Who are you?" the commander asked. His voice was loud and clear, and everyone watching had the same question.
Astraea glanced at him indifferently. "You are not worthy of knowing my name." Her cold response made the commander’s expression darken instantly.
Then Astraea slowly raised her hand.
"I’ve had enough talking," she said calmly.
"It’s time to end this farce."
Her cold voice rang, and instantly the sky seemed to change entirely. The sky of Rion turned dark and seemed to turn into a galaxy of stars.
The starlight seemed to blind everyone, although it was beautiful for weak individuals, but only those being at half-step transcendent and above felt the terror hidden beneath the beauty of the sparkling starlight.
Many of them felt their eyes burned just by looking at the clusters of stars in the sky.
"Boundless starlight."
Boom!
Tens of thousands of starlight seemed to release beams of starlight that seemed to annihilate everything.
Thousands of red dragon soldiers, along with all commanders and young master Balerion, were bombarded without any chance to run.
The space exploded, sky shattered and heaven and earth rules seemed to become distorted. Even warriors all over the newly awakened Rion felt its terrifying aura.
"Damn... who is she?!"
"Did anyone from the Crystal Dragon Clan survive that attack?!"
"It looks like the Crystal Dragon Clan provoked the wrong person..."
One after another, ancient clans and hidden powers began discussing the battle in shock. Everyone wanted to know the same thing—who exactly was Astraea?
And how could she possibly possess such terrifying strength?
"You finally showed yourself." Astraea’s voice rang, and the starlight in the sky slowly disappeared, and between the army of the ancient crystal dragon clan, two mysterious figures appeared.
Their sudden arrival shocked everyone.
Clearly, they had intervened at the final moment and protected the army from complete annihilation.
Still, although the legion had survived, the damage was catastrophic.
Most of the Red Dragon soldiers were severely burned, their bodies charred black as they collapsed helplessly onto the ground.
Their fighting power had been completely destroyed. Only the four commanders and Balerion remained standing. And even they looked battered and shaken.
Apollo, watching this from the side, also looked at the two who just appeared with interest as it seemed this battle finally turned a bit interesting.
"You’re from Celestial Palace." One of the mysterious beings’ voices rang, and immediately it caught everyone watching’s attention.
