Chapter 712: Imminent Calamity

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Charge! Resist it, and don’t let it escape.”

“Lower the scope of the encirclement. Hurry up! Surround it!”

The Golden Roc was very swift, but the distance was very great, and even if it had been even faster, it would still take a while to reach the destination. By the time Yang Ling’s team rushed into the nameless valley, the City Amongst the Clouds, the King of Darkness, the Algernon Divine Branch, Power King, and other factions’ elites had all already arrived. They surrounded the bloodsoaked Mother Empress.

The Mother Empress had a slender body covered with black scales, like a large python that had come out of the depths of the mountain. It had two sharp black horns atop its head and a pair of strong wings with a wingspan of several hundred meters. It seemed like a ferocious giant dragon with those wings.

It wasn’t a snake, nor was it an eagle. The Mother Empress had a unique appearance, and it could be seen only once every billion years. It seemed like some kind of secret hidden in its body. The people only knew that the Mother Empress was able to produce natural Wandering Divine Beasts upon advancing to a high level; none knew where this rare Magical Beast had originated. Nor did anyone know its lifestyle or habits.

“Lord, should we take action?” The Mother Empress was being attacked by various great factions, and it was trying to escape. Upon seeing this, the Corpse Wizard King got restless.

“Don’t be too hasty; let’s wait a while.” After Yang Ling had taken in the situation, he decided to bid his time.

The bloodsoaked Mother Empress had already sustained serious injuries, but its power and speed were no small matter, and it was fiercely trying to escape in the face of the crowd’s attacks and encirclement. Even if Yang Ling attacked with the Golden Roc, he wasn’t sure that he’d be able to inflict serious enough injuries on the Mother Empress to get it into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. In addition, the elites of the City Amongst the Clouds, the Power King, and the other factions were eyeing it covetously, so even if he took the Mother Nest into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, he probably wouldn’t be able to get back out unharmed.

“Charge!”

A captain-like Titan let out a shout and led a dozen Titans in an attack on the Mother Empress, which was trying to get out of the encirclement. The captain brandished his large, sharp sword, then struck the Mother Empress’s head. But up in the air, the Mother Empress retracted its tail and sped up. It changed its path suddenly and tried to get out through the gap between a team of angels and the Darkness Cavalry.

“Holy Light Blade!”

“Darkness Cross Sword!”

The numerous angels and Darkness Soldiers had a deep hatred for each other, but they still worked together to attack the Mother Empress, which was charging directly at them. They joined hands and managed to repel the Mother Empress. This time, they managed to encircle the crafty Mother Empress only with great difficulty and effort. If it managed to escape, they probably wouldn’t manage to find it again even with vast armies.

Swoosh!

The Mother Empress was facing fierce attacks by two great factions, and it wasn’t dodging or getting out of the way any longer. Its thin tail sliced through the air and split open an angel’s head. Its tail still had enough momentum to pierce the chest of another angel before penetrating his Godhead.

The Mother Empress wasn’t able to escape, so it launched strong counterattacks. The crowd was hit hard, and they realized they were facing a great enemy.

The King of Darkness, the City Amongst the Clouds, and the Algernon Divine Branch had peerless powerhouses keeping watch over this region. Still, they couldn’t come up with a way to deal with the swift Mother Empress. They could only surround it. However, each one had his own sinister designs, and each one had his own plans. They wouldn’t allow the Mother Empress to escape, but they also wouldn’t attack with their whole power in front of other factions. They waited calmly for the arrival of reinforcements.

“Humph, what a useless, garbage group!”

All the factions harbored their own sinister designs, and it was at this moment that Algernon Divine Branch’s reinforcements arrived ahead of the others. A black silhouette holding a long spear suddenly appeared in the air. He had long hair draped over his shoulders, fluttering in the wind. His gaze was ice-cold, and he observed the crowd on the ground calmly. A murderous aura spread from him, covering the sky and land alike, accompanied by a suffocating wave of pressure.

This was the Algernon Core Deity. It was said that he had already comprehended the Wind Law thoroughly. The Algernon Core Deity’s speed was second to none as he descended into this nameless valley. Soon after, he swept the men of Algernon Divine Branch into the air with a wave of his hand. He did this as nonchalantly as if he were swatting away houseflies.

“Greetings Core Deity, I’m Boniface. Our Heavenly Reverend will arrive here in a short while.” When the Titans’ commander saw the Algernon Core Deity’s ice-cold gaze and detected his terrifying murderous aura, he sensed intense danger. He spoke up, then retreated far away with his subordinates. He didn’t dare to hesitate for even a moment.

Even if Boniface had been stronger and more daring, he still wouldn’t dare to contend against an ordinary Core Deity, let alone the legendary Algernon Core Deity. He was moody, and he wasn’t like other Core Deities, who wouldn’t attack ordinary people due to their special status and identity. The Algernon Core Deity was very different; he would attack anyone without any qualms. He didn’t even care whether his opponent was a low-level Deity with insignificant power.

“Let’s go, retreat!”

“Hurry up! Let’s ask for reinforcement from the Core Deity right away.”

Even the Titans, who had a large number of people, retreated, and the men of the King of Darkness, Longbarton Divine Branch, and other Divine Branches didn’t waste any time either. They swiftly retreated. The small factions were no exception to this; they retreated even before they asked for reinforcement. Some of them retreated far away and observed things calmly. Others were still pondering how they could get the most out of the situation.

Was this the power of Algernon Core Deity?

Yang Ling followed the crowd with his group; they swiftly retreated. He carefully observed the Energy Ripples in the air and assessed the Algernon Core Deity’s power. He emitted great Energy Ripples, and he possessed a great might. But there was still a certain disparity between him and peerless powerhouses at the level of the Wandering Sword Venerable and the Abyssal Demon Lord. If he fought jointly with the Golden Roc, then he was confident that they could fight this opponent. Even if he couldn’t seize the victory, he could still escape unscathed.

Roar!

The common folks engulfed by Algernon Core Deity’s wave of pressure were very nervous, but the Mother Empress bore the brunt of the pressure. It let out a roar before retreating swiftly. It noticed that everyone had retreated significantly after the arrival of the Algernon Core Deity, and even if it had been stupid, it would still understand the terror of the Algernon Core Deity. So why would it continue fighting?

“Hmph! Do you want to escape?”

The Algernon Core Deity snorted coldly and instantly overtook the swift Mother Empress. He thrust his sharp spear, easily breaking the Mother Empress’s fine scales. He stabbed it deeply, and he was about to capture it alive. Then, the Mother Empress let out a pained groan. It bore the pain and coiled its body around the Algernon Core Deity, spraying a deadly poison that could melt even Pure Gold Sand. A mouthful of its Vital Energy was mixed with this deadly poison.

The Mother Empress was in its nascent stage and heavily injured, but it still possessed an ordinary Dimensional Wanderer’s power. It risked its life to launch a counterattack, and its might was no small matter. The Algernon Core Deity, who was known for his high speed, was caught off-guard, and he couldn’t dodge in time. His vision went black as he fell victim to this vicious attack. It was still possible for him to deal with the corrosive poison because it affected only his vision; it didn’t pose a deadly threat. The Mother Empress’s Vital Energy, however, was a different matter. After it seeped into his body, it started attacking his soul. He was surprised, and he felt like he’d been hit hard with a hammer.

“Ah, you have a death wish!”

After the Algernon Core Deity let out a miserable scream, he threw his spear and thrust his ten blade-like fingers into the Mother Empress’s body. He clutched it tightly, then started pulling at it. In a very short time, the Mother Empress lost a large amount of blood from the mangled wound. Even its intestines and internal organs were exposed.

“Soul Explosion!”

Opportunity knocks only once!

After Yang Ling discerned that Algernon Core Deity and the Mother Empress were both injured, he attacked decisively. He attacked the blinded Algernon Core Deity without the least bit of hesitation. At this moment, he couldn’t help but think of the arrogant Dio, and he realized that he didn’t have any favorable impressions of Algernon Divine Branch. That was why he didn’t mind hitting this man when he was down. In addition, they were in front of a crowd of people, and it would be difficult for him to capture the Mother Empress and escape with it safely. It would be better for no one to get it than if the Algernon Divine Branch got it. But he didn’t just save the Mother Empress’s life and allow it to leave; he quietly left a Soul Imprint on its body so that it would be easier for him to track it down later.

“Ah!”

The Algernon Core Deity let out a miserable scream. He couldn’t help but retract his fingers, which were still inside the Mother Empress’s body. He reflexively jumped back as if he’d been bitten by a viper. The Algernon Core Deity had withstood the Mother Empress’s power, but it had damaged his soul defense somewhat. Still, he suffered through an all-out attack of Yang Ling’s Soul Explosion. An intense pain erupted in his head, and a large gap appeared in his soul defense.

Shriek!

After the Mother Empress got rid of the terrifying Algernon Core Deity, it let out a shriek of pain. It left swiftly and it disappeared instantly in the boundless forest. Before it left, it cast a glance at Yang Ling and took careful note of his appearance, as well as his aura.

“Chase it! Hurry up, chase it quickly.”

“Hurry up! Don’t let it escape!”

No one expected that the counterattack of the heavily injured Mother Empress would be so terrifying, nor did they expect that even the Algernon Core Deity would fall victim to it. They were all stunned, and they only came back to their senses once the Mother Empress had disappeared into the depths of the forest. They chased after the Mother Empress, but unfortunately, it had already staunched its bleeding with an unknown method, as well as flawlessly concealed its Energy Ripples and its aura. It had disappeared into an unknown region. The Nine Phantom Mountain Range stretched for billions of miles. How would they know where should they look for it?

“Let’s go; let them struggle.” After Yang Ling detected the indistinct Energy Ripples emitted by the Mother Empress, he looked at the headless great factions, who were already searching for the Mother Empress everywhere. He sneered coldly and planned to leave quickly with the crowd to look for the Mother Nest. However, when he was about to get on the Golden Roc’s back, he had a feeling like a viper was glaring at him. He turned his head to take a look. A tall, sturdy, white-clothed man had appeared in the air.

The man held a sharp sword in his hand and stood atop a colorful cloud. His whole body emitted bright silver light, and many mysterious symbols were carved on his bright armor. He was tall, taller than an average person by a whole head. His face was as serene and emotionless as a placid lake. If one observed this person carefully, he would find him awe-inspiring. There were innumerable Twelve-Winged Angels holding large blades and following behind the man.

The man didn’t emit any intense Energy Ripples or waves of pressure. Still, Yang Ling got the sense that he was very dangerous. When he saw the numerous angels kneeling respectfully on the ground, he quickly realized the status of the man who had arrived here.

It was said that the Master of the City Amongst the Clouds was close to becoming a Creator, and he could freely enter or leave God Prison. The Master of the City Amongst the Clouds was the one who had arrived here.
