Chapter 692: Nine Phantom Mountain Range

Chapter 692: Nine Phantom Mountain Range

After having his soul severely damaged in his carelessness, the Giant Dragon Lord was no longer a match for Yang Ling. He could not defend himself against Yang Ling’s lethal Battle Soul Blade, nor could he defend himself against Yang Ling’s terrifying Soul Attacks. His injuries got more and more severe as Yang Ling’s torrential attacks continued, and he could not escape no matter what he tried.

“Ah… Go and die; let us die together!”

Looking at the blanketing horde that was the Magical Beast Army, seeing Yang Ling following close behind him and becoming fiercer as he battled, the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa lost all hope. He let out a roar, then recited a tongue-twister of an incantation, prepared to make his divinity explode! Ever since his clansmen had nearly been exterminated and lost their connection with the Dragon God, he had never seen a miracle, nor did he believe miracles were possible. He decisively chose to explode his own divinity, seeing as there was no way out. He was going to take Yang Ling and the rest of his group down with him, even if it meant he had to die.

“Not good!”

Seeing Kaleisa suddenly squirm into a ball like a tortoise, hearing his tongue-twister of an incantation, Yang Ling became immensely shocked. He sped forward and sliced down fiercely with his blade. A powerful fighter with abilities at the peak of a High-level Deity exploding his divinity was terrifying enough; how terrifying would the destructive force be if an Eighth-level Divine Duty Expert caused his own divinity to explode?

Thump…

The lethal Battle Soul Blade sliced open Kaleisa’s thick scales, leaving behind a deep wound on his body and bringing with it a rain of blood. Unexpectedly, Kaleisa, who knew that he could not escape this crisis, clenched his teeth and fought back the pain, not only refusing to stop, but instead speeding up the pace of his incantation!

“Hmph, you’re asking for death!”

Yang Ling let out a cold grunt, attacking at full force. He layered level after level of red blade aura on the Battle Soul Blade, as well as bolts of snake-shaped lightning. Originally, he had wanted to severely injure the ancient Dragon Turtle Kaleisa before subjugating him. Now, seeing that the other party was going to cause his divinity to explode without apprehension, Yang Ling could not hold back any longer. He pushed the sharp Battle Soul Blade straight toward Kaleisa’s throat, prepared to sever his throat directly and stop the incantation!

Whoosh…

Yang Ling was immensely fast, but the Golden Roc, who had been defending the group from the side, was even faster, assuming his original form and arriving before the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa with just a gentle flap of his wing. His enormous sharp claws pierced into Kaleisa’s abdomen without trouble, accurately grabbing onto his divinity and gripping down on it tightly. Kaleisa, who had been determined to die, let out a pathetic cry, his body trembling. He could no longer continue his incantation.

“Hehe, it’s not that easy to destroy your own divinity!” The Golden Roc let out a cold laugh, once again pressing down with force, causing Kaleisa to turn pale with pain. He continued icily, “You’ll find it hard even to die if you oppose the Magical Beast Divine Branch!”

The Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa was extremely powerful, able to defend against the combined attacks of the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and the rest of the group. However, his abilities were far inferior compared with the Golden Roc, which was a Wandering Divine Beast, and he had already been severely injured by Yang Ling’s attacks. Soon, he was overwhelmed by intense pain after getting his divinity fiercely pinched a few times. His consciousness got hazier and hazier following the further loss of blood and damage to his soul.

“Rodriguez, seal off the Giant Dragon Castle immediately, and clean up the battlefield as fast as possible!” After giving a few instructions, Yang Ling forced out a drop of his Blood Essence and successfully tamed the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa, who had turned into a giant Dragon Turtle.

Ancient Divine Demons had various powerful abilities, and a Wandering Divine Beast was no exception. Even though Yang Ling had luckily managed to tame the immensely powerful Golden Roc back in the past, that didn’t mean that he could successfully subjugate other Wandering Divine Beasts or Ancient Divine Demons. However, even though he had been unable to tame the Great Black-horned Demon as he’d wished after advancing to become a high-level Soul Wizard, he should have no problems subjugating a Dragon Turtle like Kaleisa.

With long-range artillery units like tactical nukes and Burning Fire Elves, the teams in the Magical Beast Army were expert arsonists. With the members of the Sea Tribes, such as the Sea Demon Eliza, the army also had a unique way of putting out fires. Soon, with the combined efforts of the group, the raging fire engulfing the Giant Dragon Castle was extinguished. After witnessing the strength of the Magical Beast Army, most of the soldiers and the residents of the castle made the wise choice and surrendered.

After the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa, who had now submitted to the Magical Beast Army, appeared to console his people, the Giant Dragons and most of the soldiers, who had been engaging in stubborn resistance, started to give up one after another. At the break of dawn, the entirety of the Giant Dragon Castle had fallen into the hands of the Magical Beast Army, and the situation was quickly stabilizing.

After taming the Giant Dragon Lord Kaleisa, Yang Ling successfully obtained his memories. However, his memories were incredibly massive as well as messy and disorganized. Yang Ling did not have the energy, nor did he have the time, to sort them out one by one. But he quickly understood several things after having a chat with Kaleisa.

It turned out that just as the legends had claimed, the Giant Dragon Valley had had rich resources a long time ago, and it had been the paradise of the Ancient Dragons, with many species of Giant Dragons proliferating there. Even the large Divine Branches and influential families lording over the various dimensions did not dare recklessly step onto this piece of land that had been protected and blessed by the Dragon God.

Kaleisa was a descendant of a Giant Dragon and a Divine Turtle, and he had the bloodline of an Ancient Dragon. Through his immense talent and great effort, he’d reached the level of a High-level Deity at a very young age, obtaining the recognition of the Giant Dragon tribe. After a long period of practice and training, he successfully became the managing elder of the Giant Dragon tribe.

The Ancient Dragons and their descendants ranged freely within the Giant Dragon Valley, living a carefree life for millions of years. However, an unexpected crisis suddenly befell them. Major factions, led by the City Amongst the Clouds, suddenly joined forces and launched a surprise attack on the Giant Dragon Castle. They were merciless, not letting off even young dragons that had just been born.

After coming to their senses, the Giant Dragons quickly intercepted the enemies attempting to infiltrate their homeland, at one point even launching a fierce counterattack. Unfortunately, their opponent was just too many, too powerful. Their fierce battle amounted to nothing. The Giant Dragon Castle fell into the hands of their enemies, and almost all of the Giant Dragons in the Giant Dragon Valley were massacred.

Kaleisa had been traveling outside on the day of the incident and had returned quickly after receiving the news. Unfortunately, he was too late. In order to find out who the true mastermind behind the attack was, in order to one day seek revenge against the factions of the City Amongst the Clouds, he sealed off a large portion of his abilities and took on a disguise, pretending to be a powerful wanderer hiding within the Giant Dragon Valley.

After the major factions moved out of the Giant Dragon Valley, he immediately seized the rare opportunity to occupy the destroyed Giant Dragon Castle once again, as well as to secretly investigate the bloody incident. For this reason, he was exceptionally cautious and kept an extremely low profile. Other than securely occupying the land of a radius of ten thousand miles around the Giant Dragon Castle, he would never actively seek to attack someone else’s territory, hiding within his hold year after year.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

Looking at the Giant Dragon Lord in front of him, Yang Ling let out a sigh in his heart, feeling awed by his stubbornness and persistence. Kaleisa had hidden for such a long period of time, maintaining his cautiousness and low profile even though he had a deep vengeance to seek. This was not something just anyone could have accomplished. He definitely lived up to his reputation as an ancient, well-trained turtle.

“Lord, after all these years of investigations, I suspect that the City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds had joined forces with a few other Core Deities and had trapped and killed our Dragon God. They then exterminated the Giant Dragon Valley in order to tie up any loose ends!” Tears filled Kaleisa’s eyes as he knelt before Yang Ling. “Lord, you have to help me! Help me kill the old bastard, the City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds!”

Even though Kaleisa could not fight back against Yang Ling’s will, he had still been a little resistant at the start after being subjugated by Yang Ling. However, after gaining a further understanding of Yang Ling’s abilities, and of the strength and potential of the Magical Beast Divine Branch, he quickly saw hope for his revenge, and he willingly joined the ranks of the Magical Beast Divine Branch.

Over the millennia, he had delved deep into the Dragon Nest of the collapsed Giant Dragon Castle, thinking of ways to revive and hatch several Giant Dragons in the name of a Summoner. Even though the number of Giant Dragons he revived this way had no problems defending the Giant Dragon Castle, they were still far from enough when it came to revenge.

Both the high and mighty City Amongst the Clouds, as well as the major factions behind them like the Algernon Divine Branch, were not organizations a mere lord like himself could handle alone. The entire Giant Dragon Castle could be easily decimated by a team of Great Twelve-winged Angels, let alone the City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds, fabled to have godly powers and the ability to freely enter and exit the Jail of the Gods!

Kaleisa knew that there was no way he could seek revenge against the major factions that had attacked them in the past with his own abilities. However, after understanding the potential of the Magical Beast Army, he saw hope for revenge. Even though the Magical Beast Divine Branch was still very weak, even weaker than some of the great territories or families that had a long lineage in the Chaos Dimension, as a newly created Divine Branch, they had the advantage in terms of their alarming potential.

He might be able to exact his revenge if he had the assistance of the future Core Deity Yang Ling. Leading an army to attack the City Amongst the Clouds might not be such a far-off dream!

City Amongst the Clouds?

Yang Ling shook his head. With the current strength of the Magical Beast Army, they might be able to go toe to toe against a team of Great Twelve-winged Angels, but directly attacking the City Amongst the Clouds was undoubtedly asking for death. He took a sip of ice-cold rum after deliberating for a moment, then slowly said, “Kaleisa, the Magical Beast Divine Branch does not fear any enemy, but now is not the time to engage in a large-scale conflict with the other major Divine Branches.”

“I understand, Lord. I have tolerated this for this many years; I do not mind waiting a few million years more. As long as I can one day slice off the head of the City Master of the City Amongst the Clouds, I am willing to wait any length of time!” Since Yang Ling did not reject his request outright, Kaleisa was elated, finally seeing a glimmer of hope.

He would immediately give up his life without hesitation as long as he could exact his revenge; waiting a million years was nothing!

“That’s right… Kaleisa, have you heard of Skyreach Tower?” Yang Ling spoke as he waved his hand, signaling for Kaleisa to stand up as he tried to understand the situation around the Skyreach Tower.

“Skyreach Tower?” Kaleisa trembled, taking a deep breath before saying, “Lord, an average person might not know about the Skyreach Tower. But a long time ago, I once heard the Great Elder in my tribe say that there is a terrifying Skyreach Tower deep within the Nine Phantom Mountain Range. There are hordes of Divine-level Magical Beasts roaming the area, as well as terrifying undead creatures at every corner. The terrain there is hazardous, and even a Divine Duty Expert would have trouble getting close. What’s even more terrifying is that…”

Kaleisa turned pale and went silent in deliberation, as if he had just recalled a terrifying incident.
