Chapter 491: Double Dragon Transformation

Not expecting that Yun Ruoyan would be able to penetrate the formation and suddenly appear before him, the silver dragon elder hurriedly turned aside. The Scarlet Eye stabbed into his right eye, causing him to howl in agony. At the same time, he finally transformed fully into a silver dragon, albeit his right eye was now a bleeding socket.

“Yun Ruoyan, you dare hurt me?! I’ll kill you!” As he howled, even the skies changed color.

“Mistress, we have to retreat!” Qiuqiu shouted, then brought Yun Ruoyan away.

Yun Ruoyan reached for the skies, recalling the Scarlet Eye back into her grasp. She turned to look at the silver dragon, whose massive form seemed to fill up half the sky.

Qiuqiu brought Yun Ruoyan flying out of the draconic formation, reappearing in plain view.

“Yan’er!” Li Mo rushed up to her, carried by Whitey. He inspected her up and down, his gaze landing on her abdomen. Every second that Yun Ruoyan had spent in the formation, so close yet so far away, was agony.

Yun Ruoyan naturally knew what Li Mo was worried about, and she forced a smile. “I’m fine, but we have plenty of trouble upcoming.”

Li Mo followed Yun Ruoyan’s gaze toward the skies, where dark clouds were gathering en masse. The roar of a silver dragon could be heard from high above, causing everyone’s face to pale. Even Whitey trembled in fear.

“Now that the silver dragon elder’s successfully transformed, it’s quite likely that we’ll all die to him,” the demonic spirit sighed.

As the remnants of the draconic formation melted away, the silver dragon’s massive form was revealed to all. “Hahaha, I’ll chase each and every one of you down! Await your deaths!” the dragon shouted. Its single blue eye swept over the gathered crowd, seeming to freeze all that it saw.

“Demonic spirit, do you have any countermeasures against him?” Yun Ruoyan asked.

“The silver dragon elder’s cultivation was originally above all of ours, and the draconic transformation will have augmented his abilities at least threefold. I don’t have any tricks up my sleeve,” he replied wearily. “All we can do is try our best.”

The silver dragon had already begun to attack, opening its gigantic maw and releasing a torrent of ice shards.

Yun Ruoyan, Li Mo, and the demonic spirit immediately released their spiritual membranes, even as they shielded themselves with their weapons. Each of these shards of ice gleamed with a pale blue glow; they were sharp beyond compare, and even infused with spiritual energy.

Quickly, the defenses of their reinforcements from the Mingyuan continent broke, and countless swordsmen began to perish. Yun Ruoyan and Li Mo looked at the skies and at the ground, at the swordsmen who died following their summons.

The swordsmen by Feng Yicheng and Pi Yang were protecting them, but they wouldn’t last long either.

“Is there no way out?” Yun Ruoyan asked. “Qiuqiu, could we try attacking the silver dragon again?”freeweb novel.co m

“No, Mistress,” Qiuqiu replied. “We wouldn’t even be able to approach him.”

“I’ve… thought of something,” the demonic spirit quickly said. “But it’s… well, I don’t know if it’ll work.”

“Tell us!” Yun Ruoyan urged.

“Anything’s better than waiting for our deaths,” Li Mo added.

“Don’t you both have draconic bloodlines?” the demonic spirit began. Li Mo had the bloodline of the silver dragons, and Yun Ruoyan that of the demonic dragons.

“Yes,” Li Mo confirmed.

“In that case, both of you should be able to use the draconic formation to take on draconic forms,” the demonic spirit explained. “I used to enjoy studying all sorts of esoteric formations, and I know a little of this one. Given the silver dragon elder’s powers, even if all of us combined our powers, we wouldn’t be able to go against him. On the other hand, if the two of you transform into dragons yourselves, we might have a fighting chance.”

Yun Ruoyan and Li Mo glanced at each other. “No!”

Li Mo was worried about Yun Ruoyan’s unborn child, whereas Yun Ruoyan was worried about Li

Mo’s bloodline. The regenerative powers of the silver dragons were insufficient to handle the transformation, and they didn’t have any holy water to mitigate the effects as the silver dragon elder did.

The demonic spirit sighed. “That was my only idea. If you both refuse, then we’ll just have to await heaven’s judgment.”

“Your plan is workable,” Li Mo said. “But I’ll be the only one who transforms.”

“Li Mo, you can’t go! Let me!” Yun Ruoyan shouted.

“There’s no time!” the demonic spirit said. “Decide!”

As the silver dragon’s torrential rain of shards grew more and more concentrated, even more swordsmen began to die. Even the demonic spirit was starting to sweat under the assault, but hte silver dragon seemed able to keep up the attack until the entire world was frozen over.

“Yan’er, listen to me! You’re pregnant, and I can’t let anything happen to you!”

“And if something happens to you?” Yun Ruoyan countered. “What would I and my child do?”

Yun Ruoyan’s words caused Li Mo to hesitate. “Don’t you remember what I told you? No matter what, we’ll be together, even in death.” She looked at Li Mo with scorching eyes.

Li Mo took a deep breath. “In life or in death—we’ll do it together!” He extended a hand to Yun Ruoyan, who clutched it tightly.

“Start the ritual, demonic spirit!” Yun Ruoyan shouted.

The demonic spirit immediately began preparations for the formation while Yun Ruoyan commanded Qiuqiu and Whitey to guard them. Amidst the clouds, a silver light encased Yun Ruoyan and Li Mo.

The silver dragon noticed the commotion, stopped its attack, and began flying toward them.

Qiuqiu and Whitey immediately shot forward. Qiuqiu shot a breath of flame toward the silver dragon; Whitey, though only one-fifth the silver dragon’s size, was able to agilely dart and weave around the silver dragon’s body, clawing him all the while.

“You little brats!” In rage, the silver dragon struck Whitey, caught him with four claws, and tore its body into two chunks, causing Whitey to let out a piteous shriek.

“Whitey!” Qiuqiu called out, then pounced on the silver dragon. When Qiuqiu bit down on the silver dragon’s claws, the intense pain finally caused him to let Whitey go, flinging his body far toward the ground.

The silver dragon then turned to bite at Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu was able to evade its sharp teeth, but not its claws. The gigantic claws grabbed Qiuqiu, causing it to groan. Qiuqiu struggled, but the claws only contracted more and more tightly.

Qiuqiu’s skin was far tougher than the claws, but the dragon’s strength was sufficient to inflict internal injuries. Red blood seeped out of Qiuqiu’s mouth as its eyes began to darken. In the end, it closed its eyes in despair. “Mistress, I… can’t hold on any longer. Take care of yourself.”

“Two useless creatures, haha! Soon, it’ll be your masters’ turn!” The silver dragon flung Qiuqiu away as though it were just a piece of trash.

Within the draconic formation, Yun Ruoyan and Li Mo were both undergoing metamorphosis. Yun Ruoyan’s demonic dragon blood, with its extreme regenerative powers, dampened the edge of the pain. Li Mo could only grit his teeth and bear the brunt of the transformation with nothing but her own will.

“Yun Ruoyan, Li Mo, demonic spirit—meet your deaths!” The silver dragon clawed at the formation. If the draconic transformation were cancelled halfway, Yun Ruoyan, Li Mo, and the demonic spirit, who was supporting the formation, would all perish.

However, just as the silver dragon thought that he had successfully gotten rid of them all, a long howl pierced the heavens. A black dragon emerged from amidst the dark clouds, quickly accompanied by a silver dragon.

“The transformation was successful!” The demonic spirit cackled with glee, then quickly fled. Before he left, he shouted, “Silver dragon, you’re the one who’ll perish!”
