Chapter 1696 The Judgment Comes
Chapter 1696 The Judgment Comes
Slowly, his features changed. His limbs grew scaly, his finger turning to talon. He grew a tail that elongated and so did his head.
Two horns grew out of his head, like antlers but striking blue. His body grew thick scales as well, the brilliant azure metallic objects overlapping each other from head to toe. His head grew a snout, with two sets of long whiskers falling from either side of the face.
The Azure Dragon finally revealed his full body in the battle, and it was one of majesty. The resplendent body seemed to glow blue in the sunlight, and the size made him look as though he was ready to swallow a mountain.
Qing Tianchui looked at the ones that were attacking them and then at his wife and son. He would protect them at all costs.
The large aura he had gathered suddenly burned bright and turned into the bright light that left his body, turning into lightning bolts.
Forks of lightning bolts streaked through the air, forking into even more, tinier strikes that struck each and every single one of the people that was there.
The Empress disappeared before any attacks landed on her, flying far outside of the secret realm. She was the only one that escaped the true Immortal attack.
The Azure Dragon\'s attack was strong enough that the heavens didn\'t accept it. Immediately, dark clouds rolled into the sky and the Azure Dragon looked up, frowning at what was up there.
Heavenly Judgment had come for him and this time he couldn\'t hide in his secret realm.
He still focused on the attack, making sure he was continuously using the lightning bolt to tear through their defenses. Whenever he tore through one, he hurt that person enough to incapacitate them and then stopped attacking.
One thing he couldn\'t do here was kill a human.
If he only attacked, maybe he could get away with two strikes of the Heavenly Judgment.
The first one was strong, but always the weakest. It struck the Azure Dragon, and he used his techniques to defend against it. Still, he came out wounded.
The Azure Dragon roared out in pain. He had no defensive artifacts anymore so he had to take the attack with his own body.
The ones that he did have had been used up for the last Heavenly Judgement he had to go through. This time around, he would have to fight against heaven as naked as a newborn baby.
The soldiers finally got time to breathe as the relentless attacks were stopped on them. They all looked tired and unwilling to fight, but the Dragon Emperor shouted again.
"Go! Kill the cat!" he shouted.
The oath grabbed onto the soldiers and they moved even when they feared death. Perhaps, they moved because they feared death.
The Azure Dragon held onto his pain and gritted his teeth, snarling at the incoming men and women. He then took a deep breath and roared.
Everyone close to him lost their minds at once as the spiritual attack sought to knock them out unconscious. Most of them were indeed knocked out, with only a few surviving the assault.
Those ones still came out of it on their knees, clutching their head as if it were going to explode at any second now.
Even Yan Yating, who was perhaps the 3rd strongest among the humans temporarily lost consciousness before coming back to consciousness with a raging headache.
Perhaps only the Dragon Emperor didn\'t fall unconscious even for a second amongst the entire group, but he did indeed feel the pain of the attack.
The Azure Dragon huffed loudly, breathing in and out. He looked down at his wife and asked, "Are you okay?"
Meiyoung\'s body was weak. She had taken too many hits. But with a bit of rest and maybe a healing pill, she would be fine.
She slowly nodded and showed her son underneath her who had red on his fur as well.
The Azure Dragon panicked for a moment but then realized that his newborn son had not been hurt. It was only his mother\'s blood.
Still, seeing his son in danger enraged him once again, and quickly turned his head toward the few that remained that were still starting to stand up.
The Azure Dragon gathered more aura around him and shot them with lightning once again.
Many fell in an instant as they weren\'t ready to defend themselves against any attacks. Those that did did not last for a long time. They were weak and without much resources.
Only those like Yan Yating and the Dragon Emperor who had a large pool of Immortal Qi could last long enough.
More and more fell, and the Azure Dragon lessened the attacks he made. The lightning in the sky surged as well, and he knew the 2nd Heavenly Judgement would fall at any time now.
Was that going to be the final one? Or would there be another one after that?
Only the Dragon Emperor and Yan Yating remained in the end, and Yan Yating quickly fell too. The Dragon Emperor lost with no possible defense left and was tossed back like a ragdoll in the wind.
The Azure Dragon stopped his attack and looked at the situation. Only the Dragon Emperor continued to stir. But not for long.
The Azure Dragon took one last aim and shot a lightning bolt at the Dragon Emperor.
The Dragon Emperor could not stop this attack which landed on his body, sending torrents of pain through him. The fact that the Dragon Emperor had a very strong physical body didn\'t even matter at all.
He was treated like a training puppet all the same in front of the might of the Azure Dragon.
The Dragon Emperor felt the lightning coarse through his body, ripping apart in places. There were holes in his body now, his arms completely destroyed. He leaned against a rock, all thoughts lost to him.
He had momentarily forgotten what he was even doing here.
His instinct told him that something else was going to happen next and that he should be ready to stop it, but watching the Azure Dragon slowly look up to the sky, he had a feeling that he was worrying needlessly.
The Azure Dragon sighed, feeling the remnant pain in his body. The next lightning strike was incoming and it was going to be a strong one. He wasn\'t sure if he was going to be able to survive this one, but he hoped he did.
\'Let\'s just hope this is the last one,\' he thought and readied himself. He flew toward the sky to take on the lightning bolt.
As he was about to do so, his eyes widened and he immediately looked down.
The Empress had teleported next to Meiyoung while they thought everything was over and were distracted by the Heavenly Lightning.
Before either of them could stop her, the Empress dug the sword she had in her hand deep into the White Cat, stabbing directly where the Beast\'s core was.
