Chapter 702: Chapter 192 Skeleton King_3
Under the leadership of Larthas, the fire magi continued to chant their spells, gradually heating up the air around them. A flash of brilliance shone in Larthas’s eyes, being the most skilled, he was the first to call out the Purple Flame Soaring Dragon. A massive dark purple fire dragon burst forth, vaporizing the life forces of hundreds of skeletons in an instant. As Larthas finished his spell, Gorisong and Kino’s dragons successively appeared, three giant dragons continuously emitting powerful fire energy, sharply reducing the number of skeletons under their onslaught. The spells of the other fire magi gradually took effect, and one dazzling spell after another turned this skeleton territory into a sea of flames. More often than not, skeletons hardly climbed out from the underground before they were burned to ashes, none of them had the chance to resurrect.
Before the spells took effect, Goshawk had already rushed to the three Skeleton Kings. He thought these extremely fragile-looking skeletons would be instantly slayed by him. However, he was wrong. Though the Skeleton Kings were not particularly powerful, they were surprisingly slippery. Sensing they could not fend off the enemy in front of them, they each scurried off in three different directions. Goshawk was furious. Ever since his defeat at the hands of Ah Dai, he had been nursing a grudge. The fact that he was having trouble with these skeletons set his eyes ablaze. He landed and ceased his pursuit, allowed his Battle Aura to warm up, and with a loud yell, he threw a punch and a crimson Battle Aura chased after a Skeleton King in a beautiful arc.
Yun Ying let out a laugh, and said, "The old fool is up to something. Using his Fire Meteor Fist, those skeletons are in for a surprise!" Under everyone’s gaze, Goshawk threw two more punches, creating three crimson Battle Auras chasing after the three Skeleton Kings. Though the Skeleton Kings were fast, they were incapacitated compared to the Battle Aura. They continually shifted their figures, changed their directions, but they could not evade the relentless pursuit of the Battle Aura. They could only watch as the Battle Aura got closer and closer. In their desperation, shrieks of anguish suddenly emitted from the three Skeleton Kings. The ground started to shake. Ah Dai was taken aback and sternly ordered, "Protect the magicians." A flash in his eyes and the Golden Greatsword gradually appeared in his hands. The seemingly infinite power of the greatsword surged, forcing Yun Ying and Harry to retreat a few steps unconsciously, their True Qi resisting the immense pressure coming from Ah Dai.
Eventually, the energy from Goshawk’s Fire Meteor Fist accurately struck the Skeleton Kings. Three agonizing screams echoed, and under the intense heat energy, far exceeding that of the Purple Flame Soaring Dragon, they had no opportunity to resist, and like their underlings, they were reduced to ashes. Goshawk grunted, "Dare to fight me? You’re courting death."
Ah Dai was not elated by the deaths of the three Skeleton Kings, he could acutely sense a threat arising from beneath the ground. The cracks in the ground no longer birthed new skeletons. Those that had emerged were vanquished by the army of two hundred fire magi. The ground started to shake more violently. Little Bone suddenly cried out, "Lord, beware! It’s the Skeleton Emperor. It’s unbelievable that a skeleton has evolved to the emperor level. It’s a formidable creature that can rival the Undead Fairies!" Ah Dai was taken aback, he took to the air, holding the Sumeru Sword, poised for a confrontation. He understood how formidable an Undead Fairy could be; being able to rival an Undead Fairy meant that the Skeleton Emperor was exceedingly powerful.
"Boom---" The ground vibrated violently causing the magicians to lose their balance. A large gap appeared in the center of the ground. All the Judges retreated cautiously to the side of the magicians, holding their weapons, fixating their gaze on the abyss. A black hand emerged from the abyss, to Ah Dai’s amazement, the diameter of this hand was nearly two meters. Moreover, the hand was comprised entirely of black skulls. An equally massive hand emerged, the two identical black hands created a thrilling sensation. The black skulls on the hands seemed to be wailing continuously. Under the manipulation of these two hands, the abyss widened once more, and a colossal black figure lunged out from underground and landed a hundred meters in front of everyone with a loud crash.
Ah Dai gasped, standing before him was a giant skeleton, thirty meters tall. Its black structure was constantly swaying, as if it were not yet accustomed to the terrestrial environment. Composed of thousands of skulls, it looked extremely terrifying. Dark yellow light flickered within its eye sockets, and it was constantly roaring.
A long dragon roar resounded, Little Bone unfurled his giant wings and charged directly at the Skeleton Emperor from mid-air, ejecting a strand of black, star-spangled Dragon Breath from his mouth. The Skeleton Emperor roared in rage, its right arm unnaturally morphed into the shape of a Shield against Little Bone’s Dragon Breath. The unassuming black skulls were exceptionally tough, Little Bone’s Dragon Breath could not inflict the slightest damage.
Ah Dai knew how precious time was to the Allied Forces. Although the Skeleton Emperor was powerful, he was undeterred. He commanded in a thunderous voice, "Little Bone, evade. Watch me obliterate it." Soaring into the air, with the Sumeru Sword in his hands, he swooped towards the Skeleton Emperor, exuding tremendous energy.
