The Chaos Dragon Prince - Chapter 910: Nightmare
.
“Hmm…” Cain currently had the silver scroll unfolded with Luo Na standing right to his side. He, Luo Na, and soon Kali gave a first thorough look. The more they study, the greater their minds feel refreshed and enlightened. Cain slowly murmured out loud, “Grasping The Sky. Using a True Dao to condense a palm that can grasp anything in the known universe. Even time, life, and death can be grasped! This is an overbearing art for sure…” “Hehe~!” Kali lightly giggled. “It doesn’t seem that suited for me, but studying these principles is bound to enhance our perception even more.” “Mn. For the realms above Heavenly Venerate, I do not doubt we’ll need much more to even think about advancing through.” Luo Na calmly spoke. However, if one can look behind her mask, she cannot hide the greedy light flowing through her eyes. “Alright. Let’s get back to it. The next days will be intriguing.” As Cain spoke, he, Kali, and Luo Na were all eager to back to their cultivation trance. This step was just one of many to eventually reach God Sovereign Yao’s inheritance…. A day swiftly passed. Basilisk City’s Venerate Council office. The Venerate Elders all returned to the chamber with expressions twisted with anxiety and hope. Four peak Primal Sovreign’s should be able to yield more results than many of their other groups, at least, that is what they believed. The ancient elder calmly sat at the head of the table with his eyes closed. The tension on when he would speak explosively rose, the other Council Elders were on the very edge of their seats for any news at all. Several minutes later and the ancient elder slowly opened his eyes. No emotion was on his face as he said, “The Bao Family’s talent failed, they all have been killed.”
“Even them!” Some of the Council Elders jolted up, their teeth gnashing together in frustration. “Haah…another one to a pile.” Other Council Elders humorously chuckled, their tones completely devoid of any hope. Elder Kong could barely take it, words began to flow out of his mouth on instincts. “Just how long can this go on? Isn’t the day when we’re all wiped from existence and just be known as demons very soon? Something. I don’t know what, but something needs to change.” As the Council Elders rummaged over Elder Kong’s words, Elder Qie chose the moment to speak out. “I wish no one will react too intensely to this. But perhaps we should consider a real cooperation with those mask youths. Not even the Grand Four of the Heavens can ignore a Holy King talent equal to the Heavenly Venerate realm.” A brief hush silence fell between the group. None of what Elder Qie said was wrong in the slightest. She had a genuine point. However, the thought of working with these masked unknowns, especially after seeing their cruel methods didn’t sit right with any of them. “Even though you do have a point, those three are still violent outsiders. They have no allegiance to anyone but themselves. If we do have to rely on their talent and strength, we should do so with heavy caution.” One of the elders slowly said, having a more open mind compared to the stricter Council Elders. Those three black-masked people were truly beginning to become the brighter option with each passing day. In the back of these Council Elders’ minds, fear permeated, dreading the fact that their highest geniuses Jiang Lee and Lan Kui may very well fall in the Lord’s Church. The ancient elder was about to speak up next. His mouth open but suddenly he froze. Everything began to slow down, painful tingles ripped into every inch of his body, his divine sense was alerted his soul went completely frantic. Right at that moment, a booming voice shook the very world suppressed the entire Basilisk City! “Demons! Come out here now!” ‘Bang!’ A supreme Perfection Stage Venerate Dao aura violently swept through the entire city as a powerful world-ending storm! “Ah-” Screams were cut off as hundreds of lower realm cultivators turned into instant blood mists when the storm of Venerate Dao aura shredded through their bodies. Even lower stage Heavenly Venerates shrieked in utter horror as their bodies were brutally smashed away, flying through the air until crashed into some building, the force of their speed smashing apart the entire body and burying everyone in it in rubble. It would’ve been a horrifying massacre if not for the numerous Peak Stage protecting the city and rare Perfection Heavenly Venerates hidden in the shadows coming out to frantically erect Dao barriers all across the city. Other Peak Heavenly Venerates took citizens inside extremely fortified buildings where the Dao aura couldn’t do anything to it. The powerful Heavenly Venerates moved at light speeds. But the damage done by the Perfection Stage Heavenly Venerate was already done. Numerous dissipating blood mists scattered into the wind; the rubble of numerous buildings stained with the shine of eerie crimson was a sight of terror.
The one who caused such extreme damage was currently floating high up into the sky. A divine man with a furious expression gazed down at Basilisk City with unrestrained killing intent and a condescending disdain. The Heavenly Venerate had his arms crossed beneath his chest, not taking another action as he waited for the demons to come out and meet him. He, from the Great Marvel’s duke palace, wasn’t going to lower himself to meet with any Demon no matter if they were also Perfection Heavenly Venerates. “Esteemed envoy! Just what is going?” A booming voice reverberated as a Dao light flashed up into the sky. The ancient elder stopped below the envoy, suppressing his Dao aura as he didn’t want to risk infuriating him anymore. Several more Dao lights streaked out of the City Mansion. Numerous other Council Elders appeared as a show of respect to the envoy. A group of world suppressing Heavenly Venerates is certainly more than a show of respect for anyone across the Heavens. Unfortunately, the envoy didn’t give a single damn. “Oh? Are you speaking as if you don’t know the other heinous crime you demons committed?” The envoy coldly spat out. The overflowing urge to kill caused the numerous Heavenly Venerates to internally shiver. They encounter many situations in the past with the envoys. But this had to be at the very top of anything, a bloodbath could truly be possible if they were to make even the tiniest of wrong moves. The ancient elder used his soul to forcefully calm his nerves, his tone coming out as even when saying, “Esteemed envoy, we truly have no idea what you are referring to. At times like this, we are waiting for results from the Lord Church.” “Is that right?” The envoy coldly chuckled. “You all seem to be conveniently ignorant at the fact that one of your demons not only killed my disciples but also one of the young princes of the Duke Palace!” “What?!?” The ancient elders along with all Council Elders’ eyes open wide, their faces paling to ghost white. The lower Heavenly Venerates still listening on the streets collapsed to their asses in disbelief, horror rapidly taking over their entire mind. The envoy coldly sneers at their reactions. “And don’t try to call anyone from the Palace. I have been officially handed the Divine Decree, thus getting approval for any action I may take here.” As he spoke, the envoy surged his spatial ring, quickly bringing out a glistening silver scroll. The appearance of the silver scroll caused all noise to vanish. Everything was beneath this silver scroll. All Dao principles, even the envoy holding onto the silver scroll are inferior to it. Time and space began to lose meaning around the silver scroll as if its mere appearance caused it to exist within a separate dimension from everything else. “This…” All of Basilisk City Heavenly Venerates witlessly stared into the majestic presence of the silver scroll. Their souls could not stop quivering, all of them realizing they were in front of a Dao force beyond the limits of the universe. “The Demi-God authority scroll…” The ancient elder couldn’t suppress the fearful quiver in his voice. He and everyone else knew that this meant they all were in the wrong. When a Demi-God declares it, there is no arguing back! The Demi-God authority scroll was actually something very rarely seen by everyone here. The ancient elders know that the scroll has only been used three times for Basilisk City. Each time was an utter nightmare.
