Chapter 74 Azure Dragon
Chapter 74 Azure Dragon
Dark clouds covered the sky, winds and clouds surged, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, as if the world was doomed.
The tornado let out a series of strange howls, as if it was challenging a general-level mutated beast on the island.
Kong Yun looked at the tornado with a strange expression. Why did this strange howl sound like a dragon's roar? Or was it …?
Ye Shiya's expression was very ugly. The aura of a General-ranked mutated beast spread over the island. The mutated beasts on the island became more and more uneasy and looked helplessly at the sky.
This was a duel between two Great General-level mutated beasts. Even if they hadn't seen the true faces of these two General-level mutated beasts, the aura they emitted alone was enough to intimidate all beasts.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning descended and landed on the beach. Before a warrior-level mutated beast could dodge, it was struck by the golden lightning and its body turned into charcoal in the blink of an eye.
"Thunder and lightning? Was this a coincidence or was this General level mutated beast controlling it?" Kong Yun looked at the tornado in surprise. Could the General level spirit beast under the tornado be able to control lightning?
A warrior-level mutated beast could be considered an overlord on land, enough to destroy a rank three city, but it could only be used as cannon fodder in the battle between the two mutated beasts. In fact, the two General-level mutated beasts hadn't even started a war yet, and just the aftermath was enough to make them ashen.
"Roar!" The roar of a General-class mutated beast came from the tornado. The sea water dispersed and its long body was exposed to the night sky.
"It can't be?" Even Ye Shiya couldn't calm down and couldn't help but exclaim.
Green scales, head like an ox, mouth like a donkey, eyes like a shrimp, ears like an elephant, scales like a fish, beard like a human, stomach like a snake, feet like a phoenix…
This General-level mutated beast actually looked very similar to the dragon in Chinese legends. The only difference was probably the horn on his forehead.
Dragons, as everyone in China is familiar with them, they can't be any more familiar. Xingyun Bu Yu, can be big or small, soaring into the clouds and riding the fog, this is only a legendary divine beast ah.
However, when this legendary divine beast truly appeared in front of him, Kong Yun did not feel the slightest bit of excitement or fear. All he felt was fear, and boundless fear enveloped the two of them.
"Dragon, that General level mutated beast in the sea is actually a dragon." Ye Shiya also couldn't believe her eyes.
"No … it's not a dragon. It's a flood dragon. There's only one horn above his head. A dragon has two horns." Ye Shiya shook her head.
However, what exactly happened to Earth? Why did all these legendary divine beasts appear? What kind of changes did the appearance of the Heavenly Awakening Virus bring to Earth?
When the legends turned into reality, perhaps the Chinese myth was not a fiction. The powerful humans, strange beasts, and divine beasts in the legends all existed. However, for some reason, they disappeared from the earth, and the appearance of the Heavenly Awakening Virus caused them to revive.
Kong Yun couldn't help but recall the sword-carrying zombie he encountered at Zhanlong City Station. It was indeed dressed very much like the legendary Sword Immortal.
"Boom!" Thunder roared. A thundercloud floated in the sky. Golden arcs of lightning flashed, and all the mutated beasts on the island fled crazily. The terrifying power contained within the thundercloud was enough to completely kill them.
The Azure Dragon had already declared war, and that thunder cloud was his battle book!
"The General level mutated beast that you fought with your grandfather back then shouldn't be the same, right?" Kong Yun couldn't help but ask.
Ye Shiya shook her head. The General-level mutated beast killed by the twelve S-level mutants in China was a giant eagle. As a participant, Ye Shiya's grandfather obtained one of the giant eagle's wings. Now, all of them were enshrined in the Ye Clan's ancestral mansion.
Although the giant eagle was strong, its body was still strong, but it was unable to control its abilities. It was precisely because of this that the giant eagle was surrounded and killed by twelve S-class Adepts.
If that giant eagle could also cast a special ability, then it wouldn't be as simple as losing three S-class Adepts, and the casualties would probably be more than half.
The Azure Dragon was actually able to control lightning. How could a human being be able to contend against this? Even if Ye Shiya was an S-class Adept, she had no chance of winning against the Azure Dragon.
This Azure Flood Dragon might be even more powerful than the giant eagle back then. If the Azure Flood Dragon was so powerful, then who was his opponent? Just what kind of existence was that General-ranked mutated beast hidden in the depths of the island?
"Boom!" Thunderclouds passed Kong Yun and floated directly into the depths of the island. In an instant, thousands of lightning bolts descended.
"Abnormal!" Kong Yun let out a strange cry. He placed both of his hands on the ice cover, and a layer of black metal covered the ice cover. This was the basalt iron he had just refined.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Even if this lightning cloud wasn't targeting them, the aftermath of the lightning was still extremely shocking, and the warrior-level mutated beast was directly killed.
The crust of the basalt iron endured bombardment after bombardment. Every time it was about to shatter, Kong Yun would reconstruct it. One layer of ice and one layer of iron would barely survive the aftermath of the lightning.
This was just the aftermath of the lightning. If a bolt of lightning stopped beneath the lightning cloud, they would probably be annihilated.
Ye Shiya couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. "Strong, too strong, this Azure Flood Dragon is simply …"
In the decades since the outbreak of the Heavenly Awakening Virus, humans had made great strides in technology and abilities. Compared to decades ago, they were completely different. They already possessed formidable strength, believing that humans would regain their dominant position, be able to regain control of the land, and even the sea and sky.
However, the Azure Dragon's attack completely shattered Ye Shiya's dream. The strength she was proud of was not worth mentioning in front of this purge. If this Azure Dragon landed, Haimen City would be completely unstoppable. The current Fire God might be much stronger than decades ago, but it was still unable to defeat this Azure Dragon.
Perhaps the strength of humans has improved a lot compared to decades ago, but mutated beasts are constantly evolving. The rate of evolution far surpasses that of humans.
After decades of development, not only did humans not narrow the gap between them and mutated beasts, they instead widened further and further away.
If the ocean weren't the source of the Tian Qi virus, if it weren't for the fact that the ocean's resources far exceeded the continent's, and if it weren't for the fact that the ocean covered 70% of the earth's surface, perhaps when the Tian Qi virus erupted, humans wouldn't have been able to survive.
"Boom!" The thunderclouds were still raging and the fire was spreading across the island. However, Kong Yun and Ye Shiya's hearts were cold. The difference in strength was simply too great. They were simply unable to resist.
"Bang!" Amidst the endless flames, a purple vine soared into the sky and smashed into the thunderclouds.
"Crackle!" A golden arc flashed and dozens of lightning bolts struck down.
However, the lightning was unable to shatter the purple vine. The purple vine shattered the lightning and pierced into the lightning cloud. Thunder rumbled and the lightning cloud instantly exploded. The purple vine actually shattered the lightning cloud.
The power contained in that thundercloud was terrifying. Once it exploded, it would be enough to raze the island to the ground. However, the purple vine directly shattered the thundercloud.
Kong Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head. No one expected that the Flood Dragon's opponent was actually a purple vine. Perhaps this vine was not the main body, but it was still strong enough.
The Azure Dragon let out a loud roar. The seawater on the surface of the sea began to roll. More and more dark clouds were gathering in the sky. The thunder in the dark clouds was endless. In order to challenge the General-level mutated beast on the island, the Azure Dragon was no longer prepared to hold back.
The purple vine actually crossed an island and appeared on the surface of the sea. Ling Tian struck, and the purple vine chopped down like a stick.
The corner of the Green Dragon's mouth revealed a disdainful smile. That's right, Kong Yun actually saw a humane smile at the corner of the Green Dragon's mouth!
The waves rose, and dozens of waves rushed into the sky, blocking the purple vines. The sea water wrapped around the purple vines, but this purple vine was actually unable to move.
"Boom!" The lightning within the black cloud was giving birth to a powerful strike. The lightning was condensing, and the golden ball of lightning was exposed to one side within the black cloud. The ball of lightning slowly descended.
"Not good!" Kong Yun and Ye Shiya both felt the terrifying power within the lightning ball. Once it landed, the entire island would probably suffer.
The two shields could not withstand such a terrifying force. Kong Yun and Ye Shiya immediately set up more shields. At this time, neither of them would save their abilities. Once the shield collapsed, they would only die.
As for escaping, the entire island was now reduced to a battlefield. Without protection, even the aftermath of the battle could easily kill them.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Dozens of vines emerged from the ground and struck the lightning ball. The mutated beasts on the island also felt the powerful power within the lightning ball and did not dare to let it fall.
As the ball of lightning descended, dozens of purple vines were instantly crushed!
"Boom!" The ball of lightning landed on the ground, and a dazzling light pierced through the clouds. The night was like day, and terrifying power wreaked havoc on the entire island.
"Kakaka!" A creepy scream came from the depths of the island. That unknown existence was probably doomed to face the lightning ball.
"Boom!" The power of the electric ball landed on the outermost layer of basalt iron. The hard basalt iron instantly exploded, followed by the second, third, and tenth layers of basalt iron.
Kong Yun spat out a mouthful of blood and hurriedly constructed his defenses within the ice shield. There wasn't much time left for him. If he couldn't construct his defenses before Ye Shiya's ice shield shattered, then they would be dead for sure.
Although Ye Shiya was an S-class Adept, the ice's defense was not as good as iron's. Fortunately, Ye Shiya had many abilities and started to build up her defense the moment the ice shattered. However, after just one breath, the twenty layers of ice shattered.
Kong Yun raised his hands and propped up the shield that fused all the metal in his body. The power of the electric ball and the metal shield produced intense friction, and the ear-piercing sound almost pierced through their eardrums.
However, they did not have time to cover their ears, nor did they have time to rest. They continued to build up their defenses to resist this shocking power!
