Chapter 1771 What did you say? Speak louder!
If the elders of the Xiangshou clan could see through the secrets of the great formation, how could an existence like the Dragon King be completely unaware?
Unfortunately, it was only after the fact that we realized it.
No one could have imagined that Chen Wanli would be able to summon demonic energy and evil spirits!
The four races are gods, demons, monsters, and humans. The gods and humans circulate pure and spiritual energy, while the demons and monsters circulate dark energy.
This is completely contrary to the original intention. Not to mention that a human could control demonic energy and evil spirits, even a god would suffer a backlash if he used an ancient magic weapon to control demonic energy and evil spirits.
The pain of demonic energy and evil spirits eroding the physical body can cause damage to one's physical body in mild cases, and even damage to one's foundation in severe cases.
Chen Wanli, however, used the blood talisman to control the demonic energy and bring the evil spirits back into the formation!
It's hard to imagine unless you see it with your own eyes.
Even more unexpectedly, after the demonic energy and evil spirits were introduced, this great formation was able to combine with the primordial chaos, doubling its power!
If it were merely a matter of the formation consuming resources, the Dragon King believed that he and the Phoenix King, working together, would not be afraid.
However, the attack by the three Nascent Soul cultivators at the heart of the formation became a variable.
Normally, the Dragon King wouldn't even give a second glance to three Nascent Soul cultivators in the early to mid-stages.
But at this moment, it was seen that the three of them—Old Ancestor Lei Ze, Fang Fengting, and Kua Fu Chong—had entered the center of the formation.
Holding the array flag and infusing it with divine energy, the offensive power within the array was greatly enhanced. In each chaotic vortex, gray beams of light, like countless long whips, struck towards the Dragon and Phoenix Kings from all directions.
Since entering the formation, Phoenix King had been trapped in one place, but it had never experienced such pressure.
These whips, formed from chaotic primordial energy, are extremely difficult to deal with. They are numerous, and each time a whip strikes a body, it leaves a bloody mark.
Chaotic energy can remain in the body, preventing wounds from healing.
It leaped several times, trying to tear apart the vortexes that released beams of light, but was interrupted each time by attacks from Raize Ancestor and Kuafu Chong.
"Qiang!"
Phoenix King roared and turned to look at Dragon King.
As before, the Dragon King released dragon flames, but this time, the surging dragon flames were devoured by the chaotic primordial energy, and the two canceled each other out and disappeared into nothingness.
Its eyelids twitched slightly, and it stopped being arrogant, now holding a wide-backed, ice-crystal longsword.
The blade was drawn with the force of a soaring dragon, and a long roar of a dragon echoed within the formation as the blade slashed towards the location of Ancestor Lei Ze.
This strike shattered several chaotic vortexes, seemingly capable of tearing the entire grand formation apart.
If he were outside the formation, Old Ancestor Lei Ze would have no chance of taking it.
But at this moment, he remained calm and composed. He raised the array flag in his hand, and three more vortexes gathered in the array, firing chaotic beams of light from different directions, like a flexible whip wrapped around a sword.
Kuafu Chong's coordination was also excellent. The array flags waved, and the beams of light in the array condensed, forming a long sword that slashed towards the Dragon King.
Seeing this, Feng Wang was about to provide support when Fang Fengting threw down his battle flag, causing him to change formation and become trapped, unable to move.
For a time, these three guys, who couldn't withstand a single move from them outside, managed to hold off the Dragon King by relying on the great formation.
The dragon flames on the Dragon King's longsword surged, breaking free from its restraints, but the Thunder Ancestor and Kuafu Chong resorted to their old tricks.
It turned into a back-and-forth pulling.
The Dragon King was furious. Apart from fighting against the Demon King of Heaven and Earth, he had never suffered such a defeat.
Someone of Lei Ze's caliber and Kua Fu Chong's level could easily take on two opponents with one hand outside.
Now, however, they are hampered at every turn.
He caught a glimpse of Chen Wanli out of the corner of his eye. This guy had actually retreated to the side of the formation without any panic, crossed his arms, and was watching the show with ease!
After several rounds of fierce fighting with Fang Fengting, the Phoenix King had not gained the upper hand and realized that this formation was no ordinary one. He then shouted to the Dragon King in a deep voice:
"Brother Long, if you believe me, this boy is vicious and has no respect for the Dragon and Phoenix clans! He must not be let off lightly!"
The Dragon King did not speak, but his aura gradually increased.
It squinted at Chen Wanli: "Chen Wanli, I'm really about to get angry!"
Chen Wanli smiled faintly: "The Dragon King's wrath is certainly no small matter!"
This statement clearly shows a refusal to admit defeat.
Everyone present fell silent, and no one dared to participate in this level of dialogue.
But everyone was secretly worried for Chen Wanli.
The next second, the dragon's roar echoed in all directions.
A colossal dragon shadow appeared in the formation, its massive form spanning tens of feet. The overwhelming sense of oppression was as if one had returned to ancient times, witnessing the majesty of a divine beast once more.
The silvery-white scales shimmered with a metallic luster, and even when the chaotic beam of light shone on them, it only left a few white marks.
So many years have passed that the gods have almost forgotten what the Dragon King's true form looks like.
Today, the Dragon King revealed his true form.
Chen Wanli's breathing also showed subtle changes.
As descendants of the Xia dynasty, we've heard legends about dragons since we were children.
Seeing a real dragon at this moment, the feeling was a mix of oppression and indescribable excitement.
This excitement is more like a competitive and eager-to-try spirit.
Excitement flashed in the Phoenix King's eyes, and with a spread of its long wings, it appeared beside the Dragon King.
In the void, crimson and silver intertwined, and dragons and phoenixes hung in disarray.
On Earth, this scene would be considered an auspicious sign of dragons and phoenixes bringing good fortune.
But at this moment, there was only the oppressive aura of two top-tier divine beasts.
"Chen Wanli is ignorant of his own limitations. Killing Lu Su is tantamount to making an enemy of a million demons. His descendants are ignorant, but do you not know the gravity of the situation?"
Phoenix King shouted sharply at Raize Ancestor, Kuafu Chong, and Fang Fengting.
"You are driven by him, but will he bear the demons' revenge for you? Does he not even want the divine legacy?"
Fang Fengting's expression changed slightly, and he was quite moved.
If Lu Su were to die, coupled with the wrath of the Phoenix King and the Dragon King, even a few divine clans would find it difficult to withstand the attack, no matter how many deaths they faced.
"Even if you fight to the death and give it up, can you stop me and the Dragon King?"
Phoenix King grinned maliciously.
With a sweep of its long tail, the Dragon King caused the great formation to tremble violently, plunging the entire city of Wangmang into an earthquake.
A large amount of chaotic primordial energy was forcibly dispersed, neutralizing the rolling dragon flames on the dragon's body.
Phoenix King took advantage of the situation and tore at the light barrier. After the chaotic energy was dispersed, its sharp claws easily tore open the light barrier once again.
Lei Ze Lao Zu and Kua Fu Chong immediately grabbed their battle flags and blocked their way.
However, the Dragon King coiled his long tail, and his broad-backed longsword was flung out, unleashing a powerful force like a top-tier magic weapon, sweeping towards the Thunder Ancestor and Kuafu Chong.
The power of the magic array activated, and two streams of chaotic energy formed a shield, blocking the two people in front of them.
Even so, under the powerful force of the longsword, they were still forcefully knocked away.
A suction force at the center of the formation pulled the two figures, who had been flying backward, back to their original positions.
Both of them were covered in cold sweat. They looked at each other and realized that, according to the instructions of the array flag, Fang Fengting should have provided some support.
But this guy clearly hesitated.
Compared to the unfamiliar Chen Wanli, Fang Fengting believed Feng Wang's words.
If it were just the two of them, they certainly wouldn't be able to control the formation to its fullest extent.
So... are we going to lose?
Unless Chen Wanli can come in and take charge of the formation!
Chen Wanli was seriously injured in the battle with the Demon King and was also hit by the Phoenix King. He has not participated in the battle for a long time because of his injuries.
"Chen Wanli, do you still think those three can stop my brothers?" Feng Wang sneered.
"You can't fight, you're sending the gods to their deaths. Your human race used this trick in ancient times! And it's still as despicable as ever!"
The Dragon King stretched his neck and interrupted the Phoenix King: "Chen Wanli, if you admit your mistake now, I will forgive you!"
Chen Wanli tilted his head and smiled: "Where did I go wrong?"
"Your mistake was in underestimating me!" the Dragon King said in a deep voice.
"Oh? The Dragon King is also weighing me up? He's only allowed three moves of protection from the Dragon King, but I'm not allowed to use formation attacks to probe his strength?"
Chen Wanli continued to ask questions in return.
Before the Dragon King could speak, the Phoenix King grinned maliciously: "Your wolfish ambitions have been exposed, haven't they? What are you to dare to talk to us on equal footing?"
"Well said! I wholeheartedly agree, and I am willing to fight this fiend alongside the two kings!"
After a brief recovery from its injuries, Lu Su stood up again. It wobbled as it flew into the air, but was protected by a dozen or so magical treasures stacked in front of it.
He appeared fearless, but in reality, he had been observing in secret for a long time.
Seeing that the Dragon and Phoenix Kings had been entangled with Chen Wanli for so long.
Chen Wanli was clearly powerless to fight any longer. With the Dragon King in control of the situation, he had also given up any thought of escaping.
Despite his injuries, he stepped forward and, with a few words, placed himself on the same side as the Dragon and Phoenix Kings.
Chen Wanli, on the contrary, became an enemy of the "three families".
The Dragon King saw through Lu Su's thoughts at a glance, but he was also really unhappy with Chen Wanli's attitude, so he didn't refute him.
Phoenix King laughed even louder: "Boy, do you feel like you've miscalculated? Did you think that by killing Lu Su you could negotiate with the Dragon King?"
"Now you can't fight, Lu Su is still alive, and we're united against a common enemy! In the end, we've tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead? Hahahaha... This is hilarious!"
Chen Wanli remained silent.
His figure suddenly vanished from the spot.
The next moment.
Demon King Lusu felt as if he were being attacked by a fierce storm.
Before it could react, the magical artifacts in front of it shattered layer by layer.
His already severely injured body was completely torn apart this time.
The demon within the body was forcibly pulled out by a giant hand, and the terrifying power gave it no chance, simply kneading it.
The whole operation happened in the blink of an eye.
Before the Dragon and Phoenix Kings could react, Lu Su had completely disappeared.
Only Chen Wanli turned his head, revealing a set of white teeth, looking puzzled: "What did you just say? Speak louder!"
Everyone was stunned. The fighting power Chen Wanli had just unleashed was no less than that of his peak condition!
So, the claim that Chen Wanli was too badly injured to fight was just a misunderstanding on their part?
