Chapter 748: Chapter 202 Chapter: Evil Dragon Awakens_2
Ah Dai wouldn’t give his opponent a chance as he had done with Harsfin. His magnificent outfit fluttered in the wind as he roared, "Die, Nazgul." Locked onto his target spiritually, he released the bowstring. The Sumeru Sword, heavily compressed, seemed to ignite the air around it, bringing forth a distorted light that swiftly plunged into the enveloped black mist.
"Ah——" A sudden shrill scream echoed. Under the Sumeru Arrow teeming with massive energy, the black mist rapidly dissolved. The golden light pierced through, drawing a beautiful arc in the air as it returned to Ah Dai’s hand. The black mist gradually dissipated, as if nothing had happened. The immense evil aura Nazgul emanated vanished without a trace.
Everyone gathered around Ah Dai, their eyes filled with exhilaration. The defeat of the Immortal Evil Witch King Nazgul was beyond their wildest expectations.
Just as everyone was brimming with excitement, the white silhouette of Qian Qian abruptly appeared before them. A trace of seriousness was etched across her stunning face. In a low voice, she said, "Don’t celebrate too soon. Nazgul is not dead. As long as his spiritual imprint remains, he can recover in a short time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be called the Immortal Evil Witch King."
A wave of dread suddenly washed over everyone, and they all turned their gaze to Qian Qian. Sighing lightly, she continued, "The most significant challenge is yet to come. Although Nazgul has temporarily lost his fighting capabilities, don’t forget that this place is not his territory. It belongs to..." Before she could finish speaking, they all felt the ground beneath them tremble violently. The rumbling noise filled them with terror, and they all looked down. They felt a profound sense of apprehension from within. Even Ah Dai and the Pope deeply felt a fear from deep within their hearts. The most affected was Little Skeleton, who managed to mutter in his trembling voice, "It is the Evil... the Evil Dragon King."
Ah Dai shuddered, turning his gaze towards Qian Qian. She nodded solemnly, confirming Little Skeleton’s statement, "Yes, it’s the Evil Dragon Heralbink. The reason he didn’t help Nazgul before was because of his arrogant nature; he doesn’t ally with anyone. Although Heralbink has a physical entity, which makes him easier to deal with than Nazgul, his power has reached unimaginable heights. It even exceeds my comprehension. You must be careful!"
The ground shook violently as a powerful, deep voice echoed from all directions, "Good, I did not expect Nazgul would falter. It seems I’ll have to intervene. Humans, consider it an honor to die by my hands." Although the voice did not project evil per se, a chill from the depths of their hearts surged when the voice died away.
In the valley below them, the ground cracked open haphazardly, and it seemed as though the tough rocks couldn’t contain whatever was surging upwards. Goshawk, who had the most explosive temper, let out a furious hum. With a circle of his hands, a one-meter long fire cone appeared, which he threw with all his might while his Fire Nightmare Aura spread instantaneously all over his body. Nobody tried to stop Goshawk’s reckless act; they all wanted to see how powerful this Evil Dragon Heralbink was. The fire cone, trailing a stunning red tail flame, plunged towards the ground. Just as the cone was about ten meters away from the fissured ground, an underlay of dark blue appeared. The fire cone exploded into sparkles mid-air, unable to disturb the dark blue barrier.
Everyone looked at each other in astonishment. Goshawk, ranked third amongst the four Sword Saints, had thrown the fire cone with the entirety of his power. The cone, renowned for its sharpness and penetrating ability, had proven useless against the dark-blue barrier. Even if Ah Dai and the Pope combined forces, they couldn’t erect such a powerful barrier.
As if sensing something, Ah Dai turned his eyes towards the direction they had arrived from. He saw countless humans appearing on the mountain behind them. A majority of them bore the banner of the Church. While they were engaged in battle with Nazgul, Chief Judge Xuan Yuan, Sect leader Xi Wen of the Tian Gang Sword Sect and leaders of various factions had led the expert fighters of the human allied forces here. To accelerate the pace, the high-ranking martial artists carried the three thousand high-level priests. Seeing his subordinates arriving, the Pope was instantly recharged. He used this short time slot given by the rumbling ground, which signaled the emergence of the Evil Dragon Heralbink, to cast his most potent magic. He hoped to weaken Heralbink some, thus gaining the upper hand. Glancing at the four Red Robe Priests, he said gravely, "Quick, follow me." After he finished, the five of them took off rapidly towards the human assistance force.
Having activated his spiritual wisdom early on, Ah Dai instantly understood the Pope’s intent. Along with the other three Sword Saints, they didn’t move. Among the United Forces, they possessed the most potent martial arts and, facing the crisis before them, they had the capability to stand at the forefront. Ah Dai looked at Qian Qian questioningly and asked, "Why is Heralbink moving so slowly?"
