Chapter 1040 Azure Dragon, Capture Successfully
"A little troublesome?" Ye Ge was slightly taken aback.
For Qinglong Laodeng to say that the intruder was "slightly troublesome," it must mean that the intruder was more than just "slightly troublesome."
"Are the intruders from the Temple of the Priests?" Night Song asked.
"Oh? How do you know?" Azure Dragon Old Deng stared intently at the Water Spirit Priest before him and replied in his mind, "Yes, and he is an eleventh-level Grand Priest with the attribute of water. The face under the priest's robe is a human face formed from the condensation of water attribute."
Water Spirit Priest!
Ye Ge immediately guessed the other party's identity.
"How did he get into the eighth level of the underground palace? Did he break through the barriers of the previous levels?"
"I don't know either. There were no unusual events in the previous levels. It seems that this guy entered the eighth level of the underground palace directly through some unknown channel."
“An unknown channel…” Ye Ge glanced at the system’s calendar.
Is earth strong...?
Ye Ge suddenly understood.
......
Inside the Azure Dragon Palace.
Looking at the mangled body of the Azure Dragon in human form before him, the Water Spirit Priest thought to himself, 'It seems my prediction was correct.'
'The Azure Dragon's power has only recovered to the ninth level of the Soul Emperor realm, and it can only appear in the form of a dragon-human remnant.'
"The sacred beast Azure Dragon," the Water Spirit Priest said slowly. "You have indeed reached some kind of agreement with the First Emperor of the Human Race, secretly repairing your body in his tomb. It seems you have forgotten the punishment the Great God gave you."
"So......"
"Snapped!"
The Water Spirit Priest clasped his hands together, his dark blue robe fluttering even without wind, and three ring-shaped divine runes appeared in his palms: "Divine Art - Azure Sea Dragon Transformation!"
He mobilized all the water on the surrounding ground, causing the accumulated water to boil suddenly. Tens of thousands of water droplets floated in mid-air, refracting blue light, with each droplet containing a hundred times the compressed divine power of water.
Amidst the roar of a dragon, the liquid torrent sculpted a thirty-foot-long, azure water dragon! It roared and pounced towards the Azure Dragon Elder!
"!" Old Deng's eyes narrowed, and his white hair danced wildly.
He suddenly raised the Sacred Azure Dragon Blade, and the sacred power of wood flowed around his body.
Suddenly, gnarled green vines sprouted from the water on the tomb floor, and thousands of emerald leaves swirled around the blade of the Sacred Azure Dragon Blade in His hand. Each leaf vein vibrated at an ultra-high frequency, and its edges gleamed with a green light that seemed to cut through space.
Thousands of green leaves converged to form a green, wood-elemental dragon shape.
"Sacred Technique - Azure Dragon Leaf Technique!"
Where the blade pointed, the torrent of flying leaves transformed into an emerald leaf dragon, which roared angrily. The plants, nurtured by the sacred power of the wood element, grew wildly, and the thick vines, like blood vessels, infused the leaf dragon with surging life force.
"Roar--!"
"Roar--!"
Two giant dragons, one on water and one on wood, twisted their long bodies and roared as they lunged at each other.
boom! ! !
Two astonishing forces collided with a deafening roar! The sound of the explosion echoed throughout the entire tomb!
The turbulent waters and the wood spirit energy formed a vortex of opposing forces, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the tomb's dome!
......
"What did you mean by 'Earth Prosperity Day'?" Baihu asked.
Ye Ge explained, "That was the day when the earth element was strongest in a year. One of the five elemental officials was an earth spirit official. He probably used earth escape techniques to help the water spirit official bypass the first seven levels of the underground palace and directly escape to the eighth level. But even so, after sending the water spirit official in, there probably wouldn't be any power left, so only he could be sent in."
Upon hearing this, Baihu snorted coldly: "I see. He's just a minor priest. There's no need to worry about that old guy Qinglong. Even if a level 12 Grand Priest came, it would be the same, let alone an 11th-level priest."
“You’re wrong.” Ye Ge said with a serious expression, “Qinglong Lao Deng’s power has only recovered to the peak of the Soul Emperor Realm, and he can only appear in the underground palace in the form of a dragon-human remnant. Before this, some people have already witnessed the power of Qinglong’s remnant body.”
Besides himself, Ye Bing and the orc Am were the ones who came out alive from the Extreme Yin Azure Dragon Palace.
"The fact that the enemy dared to come in so rashly, knowing the fighting strength of the Azure Dragon's remains, shows that they are confident they can defeat Azure Dragon Old Deng," Ye Ge said.
Baihu raised an eyebrow and pondered for a long time: "Then, what is the other party trying to do by going to such lengths to dig up the old man's grave?"
Night Song: "The ninth level of the imperial mausoleum contains not only the sealed place that seals the soul of the Azure Dragon, but also the Azure Dragon's remains, as well as many treasures left by the late emperor."
"The other party is probably after the Azure Dragon's remains and the soul of the Azure Dragon Old Deng."
"..."
White Tiger paused for a moment, then said coldly in Night Song's mind, "Hey! Azure Dragon, you wouldn't really be defeated by a mere ant-like priest under those damned gods, would you?!"
......
"when!"
Qinglong Laodeng brandished the Holy Qinglong Blade, clashing it against the two water-patterned battle blades held by the two water elemental warriors summoned by the Water Spirit Priest, producing a deafening metallic clang!
The tomb's dome was shaken down, scattering dust everywhere, and the sparks that flew from the point where the blades clashed actually evaporated the surrounding water vapor into a cloud of blue smoke!
The veins on Qinglong Laodeng's hands bulged as he gripped the hilt of the knife, and the eyes of the dragon in the relief carving on the hilt flickered between light and shadow.
"Hmph! White Tiger, you weren't even there to help, yet you still spout so much nonsense!"
Old Deng of the Azure Dragon snorted coldly, then twisted his wrist and used force to knock away the two battle blades in front of him. He then stepped on the puddle with his toes and used the force to take off into the air.
He raised the Azure Dragon Blade with one arm, and the azure wood aura surrounding him suddenly turned azure. Azure wood energy surged from his body, condensing into dragon-shaped lightning around him.
The wood-attribute holy power on the blade transformed into lightning-attribute holy power, and the ripples resembling ancient tree rings gradually transformed into lightning patterns. Hundreds of wandering electric snakes erupted from the tips of his hair, and his entire body radiated dazzling blue lightning!
Then it suddenly plummeted straight down from the sky!
"Sacred Law - Heavenly Cyclone Splitting Cauldron!"
Like the force of a thunderbolt!
"boom!!!!!"
Before the blade even arrived, the raging electric current had already woven a spiderweb of blazing white light across the water's surface.
A powerful burst of lightning-attribute holy energy reverberated through the water! Water splashed everywhere!
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle...!!!"
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle—!!!"
Lightning can conduct through water.
In an instant, the entire tomb chamber seemed to fall into a thunderous abyss; bronze lamps shattered, mural paint scorched and rolled up, and even the air was filled with the acrid smell of burning rust.
"Ugh!!!" The Water Spirit Priest's eyes widened as his body was also disintegrated by lightning. His glass-like body crumbled inch by inch, and his priest's robes shattered.
The two water elemental warriors he summoned exploded into countless silver beads, each drop enveloped in hissing lightning.
A moment later.
"Splash splash splash..."
It felt as if a heavy rain had fallen inside the tomb.
Amidst the torrential rain, countless ripples spread across the puddles on the ground.
Qinglong Laodeng, holding a long sword, slowly descended from the sky. Looking at the tattered priest's robe floating on the water, he said in his mental space, "I've taken care of things here. Fortunately, this guy only has water-attribute divine power, and my attribute slightly counters his."
"Don't be careless! Old Deng Qinglong! It's not that simple!" Ye Ge's sharp voice echoed in the mental space: "Watch your step!"
Qinglong Lao Deng: "Hmm?"
Suddenly, a sticky, wriggling sound came from beneath his feet. The water vortex surged again, and tendrils of water, as if they were alive, wrapped around his legs!
Immediately afterwards, the dark blue barrier that enveloped the entire tomb chamber began to glow, and the patterns on the barrier walls connected together, resembling a huge star pattern.
Between every star, the eye of a god shines!
"May the gods bear witness, and may he be eternally imprisoned in the underworld!"
The voice of the Water Spirit Priest seemed to come from nowhere.
More than a dozen black undead chains emerged from those star-like eyes, tightly binding the limbs and body of Azure Dragon Old Deng!
"?!" Old Deng of the Azure Dragon looked on incredulously.
The water spirit priest, who had just been decomposed into water, slowly reassembled from the pool on the ground into a human form and stood up from the water.
"ended."
"Azure Dragon, captured successfully."
