Rebirth in Against the Gods with The Ultimate System - 86 Chapter 86
Back to the central area where the Flood Dragons appeared just now, Cang Yue and Little Fairy were staring straight into the eyes of the two dragons floating above them. Due to the dragons’ appearance, the gillians slowly retreated back into the Garganta. Maybe because this time, dragons started to interfere with their business and Yun Che managed to weaken Granz causing him to lose control of the gillians. With the gillians retreated, the remaining low level hollow immediately retreated back into the Garganta or scattered all over the area. So the only ones left were Cang Yue, Little Fairy and Kon as well as the two enormous dragons.
The two enormous dragons slowly stared at the three figures stood in the middle of the mountain basin. “To think we actually encounter two humans in this place.”
Suddenly, the male dragon released a suppression aura against them as it said “Let me kill all of the humans until they return us our child.”
Little Fairy and Cang Yue immediately went up their guard. The dragons managed to force the hollows away. Right now, the stakes are even higher for them. Little Fairy couldn’t even defeat the dragons even if their strength is around Grand Perfection of Sky Profound Realm. Now, their strength is around Fifth Level of the Emperor Profound Realm. It was way harder and asking them for the impossible. Kon hid behind Cang Yue’s leg, scared out his wits.
One of the Flood Dragon swing by and started to smash their location with its tail. Little Fairy and the others immediately avoid its attack and started to run. There’s no way for them to engage the dragons.
The two Flood Dragons were roughly the same size. They looked similar from the outside, but one was female while the other was male. By the looks of it, they appeared to be husband and wife. They simultaneously opened their enormous mouths, belching forth a wave of storming tornadoes. Taking out the remaining hollows around them. The storming tornadoes were originally only a several meters wide, but in the process of spinning, they quickly grew larger. In the blink of an eye, they had already reached the size of several hundreds of meters. The two vortexes of enormous tornadoes, one in front, the other behind, carried an incomparably terrifying ripping power as they swept towards Little Fairy and the others.
Little Fairy immediately grabbed Cang Yue and Kon before retreating to safe distance. She makes sure to enhance her speed with haki to go faster.
“There’s no way I could defeat an Emperor Profound Rank dragon. Let alone two. But I must make sure nothing happens to these two.” She said in her heart while retreating to a safe distance. But the two tornado were chasing them faster than the wind could follow and annihilating the surrounding hollows. She immediately stopped before drawing her sword while supporting Cang Yue with her remaining arm. She slowly concentrates before shooting off her own tornado in the process. The frost tornado wasn’t meant to stop the dragons but it would at least dissipate the tornado they shot at her. The three tornado clashed and causes a complete storm covering the whole area of the mountain. Rocks and trees are flying over. She immediately deployed her Frozen Cloud Barrier and shield all three of them in it.
The colliding tornadoes caused the storms persisted for a while, then finally dissipated. The male dragon’s voice rang out from high in the air. “So it is actually a human who has stepped halfway into the Emperor Profound Realm and another one who has stepped halfway into the Earth Profound Realm. Since you humans took our child away from us. You can forget about ever leaving again!”
Little Fairy said in an icy voice, “We only passed by here on accident and defending ourselves from these beasts. You stumbled on us and attacked us. We didn’t even know about your child.”
The female dragon’s voice rang out with explosive rage. “Silence! You humans are all despicable, vile creatures! In the past, it was because the two of us, husband and wife, were slightly merciful and spared a human that intruded our home, three months later, he returned back with several dozens of people…and even killed our one and only child! We definitely won’t make the same mistake ever again… Human, die!”
As the dragons were pouncing on her, Little Fairy immediately activated her full power “It’s all or nothing. Frozen Cloud Domain!”
Along with the Little Fairy’s graceful shout, the space suddenly transformed into a field of ice-blue color and covers the whole mountain basin. Within this enormous ice-blue field, countless flakes of snow and frost silently fell, and the water element in the air condensed into countless crystals of ice. The world was covered with a layer of white snow, and an increasingly thick layer of ice began to slowly cover the bodies of the two Flood Dragons. Their movements grew sluggish, and even their tornados seemed to slowly become frozen as the howling were no longer as sharp as before.
“A Domain…it’s actually a Domain!” Cang Yue cried out in while darting her eyes all over the area. She never expected Little Fairy could use it as well aside from Retsu.
“What’s a domain?” Kon asked while hanging on her shoulder.
“Domain Arts, according to legend, required a person to at least be at the Emperor Profound Realm before being able to just barely execute such a powerful Profound Art. Once a Domain was formed, within the Domain, everything would transform into an element that was beneficial to one’s self, to the point of even becoming completely under one’s control.” Cang Yue slowly explained to him.
Kon was impressed and widen his eyes. “Cool, so if I entered Emperor Profound Realm one day? I could use it too?”
As for Little Fairy, although she had yet to completely enter the Emperor Profound Realm, she was actually already able to use Domain Arts.
“Sister Retsu, aside from you. I too can use domain arts. But, shame my domain was a lot weaker compared to you. Rascal, you probably know how to use it as well.” Little Fairy once saw Retsu executed her domain sometime during their adventure. She did it to test the capabilities of that domain. It shocked the hell out of her once she saw the prowess of her domain. It was hundreds of times more powerful and she can alter the size as she wished. Compared to her, Retsu outshines her by a large margin.
Within the Frozen Cloud Domain. The freezing cold, the flying snow, the frost…all slightly augmented Little Fairy’s powers, while simultaneously weakening the movements of the two dragons as well as the strength of their attacks. Little Fairy was now holding her longsword that seemed to be formed from ice crystals and immediately infused it with Armament Haki. Her body moved, and it was like a blue light flashed by as she pierced straight towards the male dragon.
“Hmph, such wishful thinking. To think someone like you wanted to beat Emperor beasts like us?” The male dragon slowly swiped its claws despite being slow down by the domain. Little Fairy’s attack easily cut the dragon’s scaled skin but the wound was not big enough to cause it some damage. It was more to a small cut on the finger. Most of her executed arts were imbued with haki but the more she used it, the tired she become as basic Haki tend to consume more stamina.
Seeing the small wounds all over their body, the female dragon responded. “Hooo, looks like you are not some boring human. Entertain us then.” Little Fairy was relying on her haki to dodge the attacks thrown at her but if she didn’t go for offensive. Her life might end if the moment she ran out of stamina.
Kon and Cang Yue were observing from a safe distance within the domain. They couldn’t help her as they might get in her way if they interfere. “That nee-san. Why didn’t she run away? That thing is too strong for her.”
Cang Yue suddenly understood what she was doing. “Sister YueChan…. She’s probably trying to buy some time….”
Kon widen his eyes. “Buy some time for what?”
“For Yun Che and Sister Retsu to get back.” She knew both of them won’t let anyone in danger.
Little Fairy blocked another incoming attack from the dragons with her Frozen Cloud Barrier. When the tail swiped her, she lost control of her domain as her shield shattered immediately. Even after imbued it with haki, the attacks were still realms above her.
Domain usually last for an hour but due to her excessive damage, she lost control of it. The domain dissipates entirely causing her to fall to the ground while breathing heavily.
“Sister YueChan!!!” Cang Yue immediately helped hold her arm.
Little Fairy grunted in pain while slowly standing up. “I am weak. I couldn’t even protect you two. I am sorry. Sister Yue.”
Cang Yue immediately shook her head. “No, I am sorry. I am not strong enough to help you.”
“Humans!!! DIE A WRETCHED DEATH!!!” Both dragons swing their massive arms towards them. Cang Yue immediately hugged Little Fairy as she was nearing the end of their life. She regretted that she didn’t even had a chance to confessed her feelings to Yun Che. But at least, she died alongside her sister, Little Fairy.
“Rascal, Am I still worthy of your affection?” She slowly thinks while the claw slowly swiping towards all of them. She admits she had feelings when it comes to Yun Che but she slowly denies it. Because of him, she swore she will never use her forbidden art anymore. Even if she could use it, it wasn’t enough to defeat the dragon and caused him more trouble. She admitted, she was the happiest when she was around them. She felt she had a family after so long. Friends she could call sister and a man who deserves her affection. At least, she died knowing both of her loved ones was safe while she died alongside her sister.
Despite being so afraid right now, Kon immediately spring into action and transformed into the golden cub once more. The dragon immediately stopped its claw in the air as they observed the floating lion cub. Little Fairy and Cang Yue called out to him as it was useless for him to enter. He could only made it worse.
“KON!!! What are you doing?!?” Cang Yue shouted from below.
“I am the legendary Kon-sama. I will not let you ladies get hurt.” He continued to fly until he arrived in front of the dragon. Compared to a massive dragon, his size was literally akin to an ant.
“Ohhh, a unique beast? What kind of beast are you?” The male dragon looked at him curiously.
“I am not some beast. I am Kon. A lion.” As he was acting tough, Kon wasn’t aware that his aura was suddenly surrounding his whole body.
“A lion? Puny thing like you dare to confront us?!?” This time, the female dragon trying to intimidate him with its aura.
Feeling supressed, he suddenly shouted “YOU WILL NOT HURT THEM!!!” Suddenly, a golden aura suddenly envelops the battlefield as the dragons were suddenly shuddered in fear when they saw the lion cub. Kon unconsciously released a powerful intimidating aura towards the dragons. They could see the image Winged Golden Lion God was roaring at them in their minds. The dragons fell into fear as they saw the lion was roaring at them.
However, the process only last temporally as the golden aura suddenly disappeared as if nothing was there in the first place. Little Fairy and Cang Yue were shocked as they too saw the image of the Golden Lion in their mind and was stunned by it as well. It last more than a few seconds before it disappears entirely.
Kon opened his eyes and saw the two dragons shivering in the air. Before he could talk, the male dragon asked him once more. “You… You’re an Heavenly Beast?!? Only those beast have intimidation aura like that. Who in the world are you?”
“I am Kon-sama. The Legendary Golden Lion.” Kon tried to use his aura again but he failed. Suddenly he received a notification in his mind.
[Ding… Due to host’s will power, you have unlocked ‘The Aura of the Heavenly Winged Lion God.’ This aura use absolute intimidation but this aura can only be used once a day. Host’s cultivation isn’t suffice to support a long usage. Last only for 3 seconds.]
“EHHH??!?? I am fucked.” He shouted in his heart.
The dragons were stunned in fear just now regained their bearing as it observes Kon. “Hmph, a heavenly beast like you is just a mere beast. You wanted to intimidate us? Be gone!!!!” The male dragon swiped its arm towards him but Kon immediately avoided it as he can’t sense its intent.
Kon managed to dodged the incoming tail swipe but he wasn’t able to dodge the second one came from the female dragon. He can sense it but couldn’t react on time before he was swiped by the tail and crashing down like a slapped housefly near Little Fairy’s location.
“Kon!!!” Both Little Fairy and Cang Yue shouted at the same time looking at the lion cub who got swiped while trying to save them. Kon reverting back to his plushy form before slowly came out of the hole he was sent into.
“I am not done yet. You overgrown lizards.” Kon was trying to act tough but he knew the strikes were sting enough. But his notifications came like crazy as his body was leveling up same as Retsu as well. Turns out, every being summoned by the system can use this feature. However, Kon can only level his body up if he was hurt in his lion form. His plushy form had no effect. Due to the excessive damage he was taking just now, he couldn’t access his lion form temporarily.
The dragons were shocked to see a small beast like him was able to survived a full power strike from them. Sensing his uniqueness, they ignored him and said “We will deal with you later.”
“Now, DIE HUMANS!!!” The dragons shouted once more before swinging their arms towards Cang Yue and Little Fairy. Both of them closed their eyes awaiting their impending doom.
CLANG!!!!! BOOOM!!!! Explosion covered the area where the claws hit just now. Suddenly, massive amount of pressure was emitting from underneath the claw.
“Thanks Kon. You did good. You girls as well. Sorry, We’re late.” A familiar voice came from the cloud of dust where the claw hit just now. The dust slowly cleared up and when both of them opened their eyes. They were greeted with two familiar faces while slowly tearing up.
From underneath the claw, that person was blocking with a black sword. But, his outfit was considered indecent as he wore remnants of his outfit from his left shoulder to his arm and dirt covering his whole body. He also had wrapped white cloth all over his waist and a ragged leg-wear while being barefooted on the ground. The person was none other than the hero of their dreams. Yun Che.
The other claw was blocked by a woman using the same manner as Yun Che was none other than Retsu herself. However, she had a massive killing intent making the dragons shivered when they saw her gaze. The woman was pretty much the same as Yun Che. But the only thing that keep her from being totally indecent was the white cloth wrapped around her chest.
Seeing that their strikes were easily blocked. They immediately question the them. “Impossible!!! Who are you, humans?”
Yun Che didn’t say anything but slowly raising his palm and place it on the back of his Tensa Zangetsu before said a familiar phrase. “Getsuga Tenshou.” Suddenly, a dome shaped energy suddenly formed before covering the whole dragon in process.
“ARRGGHHH!!!” The male dragon was sent flying by Yun Che’s Getsuga Tenshou. The energy creates a devastating effect on the area and caused a massive crater appear on it. Even if his mask was still on cooldown, he still had his Purgatory aura activated which pushed his strength to Seventh Level of Emperor Profound Realm. Something which far surpassed the dragon’s aura.
Retsu on the other hand use her strength to deflect the female dragon’s claw before stabbing her sword to the ground and pointed both of her palms at it.
“Soren Sokatsui!!!!” Massive blue fiery energy came out from the palms and engulf the female dragon, sending it flying as well. When Little Fairy and Cang Yue saw them sending those massive dragons with ease makes them wonder the level of their own strength compare to them.
Both them slowly turned around and jinx at the same time. “Sorry, we’re late.”
