The Legend of the Dragon King

The silhouette had only flashed once gently before it skimmed across the sky at lightning speed. A stream of bicolored gold and silver light rays appeared.

It was right in the center of the battle formation formed by the nine Great Demons, stretching across the tails of two of them.

The nine Great Demons could feel as their energy began to drain. To their surprise, the unending stream of darkness energy suddenly came to a complete stop.

It was at this moment that Yuanen Tiandang arrived.

He punched with both of his fists simultaneously while the ninth soul ring on his body glowed brightly!

It was the Titan Break Heaven Vault!

The thick yellow radiance turned translucent and transformed into two terrifying orbs of light. The razor-sharp orbs reached for the two Great Demons on both sides while blasting with incredible strength.

As they were confronted by the Limit Douluo’s final strike, the Great Demons did not have any chance whatsoever to check on the condition of their bodies. They only had time to defend against the attack, attempting to resist it.

Nevertheless, their broken link rendered them incapable of even that. The terrifying earth element-like light orbs had transformed into diamond-like substance. When those orbs descended, the demons discovered that they were unable to withstand them anymore.

“Rumble!” The nine Great Demons were separated into two batches. There were four in one batch and five in another. They fell forward almost simultaneously from the blasts.

Yuanen Tiandang’s face had paled as soon as he launched this all-out attack. His body swayed and he sat on the ground weakly.

The demons’ ability to withstand blows was exceedingly strong. The strike was still not lethal to them. It appeared as if both sides were exhausted and wounded, yet the linked battle formation that the Great Demons were so dependent on had been broken!

Two giant hands over a hundred meters in diameter descended from the sky and swept across horizontally, tossing the Great Demons on both sides far into the distance. Yuanen Zhentian stamped his right foot on the ground and increased the gravity a hundred times in an instant. He refused to give these Great Demons another chance to link up.

It was the Titan’s Grip.

The two one-hundred-meter hands gathered in the air, each gripping a giant transparent hammer. It was Yuanen Zhentian’s Titan Break Heaven Vault soul skill, but the effect produced by his far exceeded that of Yuanen Tiandang.

The Demon Monarch A Erba had been observing the entire scene all along. He could not help feeling panic growing in his heart upon witnessing this turn of events.

Even though he did feel sorry for losing the rest of the demon legion, he could recruit more of such creatures upon his return. What concerned him was that these nine Great Demons were his foundation. In a certain sense, they were a part of him.

There was no such thing as procreation in the demonic plane. Their lineage was created through division. When a powerhouse chose to divide himself, he would split into two entities that were weaker than the entity before. Then, the two new entities would cultivate and grow up once more before dividing again.

Of course, there were many stringent requirements in order to perform the demon division. For example, one would need adequate life force, and also, one would need to start cultivating all over again after the division.

This was the method of passing down one’s lineage in the demonic plane. The nine Great Demons that followed along Demon Monarch A Erba were the progeny of his body.

At A Erba’s level, he was already standing at the peak of his world. His division method was completely different from ordinary demons. He would only choose to divide himself when he had cultivated to the apex of the demonic plane. He would divide a small portion of power to form into his most loyal Great Demon. It was because he had cultivated to such a level that it was impossible to elevate himself anymore. As a result, he chose to use this method.

This method required a long period of time for him to reach that level of cultivation nce again. The energy on the demonic plane was limited and the planar power was far weaker than the Douluo Continent. As a result, A Erba had spent close to a few centuries to divide into one of these Great Demons before himself! One could describe these nine Great Demons as the foundation of his power.

In fact, he could even choose to pass down his power to one of his Great Demons in order to remold himself when his body had aged to a certain extent given that he was no longer able to divide any further. As a result, these nine Great Demons were almost like his nine lives on the demonic plane!

How could he not panic when he watched helplessly as these Great Demons were about to falter under these attacks? He could recruit the rest of the dead demons, but losing one Great Demon hurt him as much as losing a life!

“Roar!” A Erba let out a series of deafening growls, and a glowing pattern emerged underneath his feet. The lines of the pattern twisted and rolled wildly until a terrifying storm of darkness was conjured with a diameter of ten thousand meters. The entire area became distorted.

“That’s his origin power. This demon is going to put up a desperate fight!” Er Ming shouted aloud as his eyes turned grim. The frenzied attacks of a quasigod-ranked creature were absolutely terrifying.

The dark storm enshrouded the nine Great Demons that had been blasted away. It transformed into dark chains that bound their bodies instantly in an attempt to pull them back to his side.

Yuanen Zhentian’s Titan Break Heaven Vault had already arrived. Even though the storm could try to resist Yuanen Zhentian’s attack as much as possible, and A Erba was also infusing his power into the nine Great Demons through the chains, these Great Demons were about to be defeated by the terrifying Titan Break Heaven Vault.

Six of the Great Demons were ferociously slammed into the ground, which fractured them into pieces. The horns on the heads of three Great Demons broke.

For the demons, their horns were the source of their power. Losing them was equal to losing half of their lives.

However, A Erba still managed to pull these nine Great Demons’ bodies back to his side. Under the protection of his darkness storm, six Great Demons were severely injured, but still alive.

“The power of the fallen shall rise! I call upon the Destruction Storms!”

Nine gigantic tornadoes arose from the darkness storm. The Demon Monarch A Erba spat out a mist of purple blood. The bloody mist fused into the Destruction Storms, immediately turning everything in the surroundings into creatures of darkness.

Just then, a purple-gold light suddenly and silently appeared in the Destruction Storms.

It was a figure that seemed to have been completely forgotten earlier. Was that Yuanen Yehui?

She had assumed the form of a Great Demon, and her body was covered in purple-gold scales. The Destruction Storms would not cause harm to its own legion. There was a bloodthirsty coldness in her eyes, and she was emitting an intense purple-gold glow as she pointed at something.

Yes, she had never been under the control of her demon bloodline.

When her cultivation base broke through to Title Douluo-rank and the demon’s bloodline was awakened, the seed left behind by Er Ming in her body had also awakened naturally.

It was Er Ming’s third drop of blood essence. He had ingeniously hidden his aura inside Yuanen Yehui’s sea of spirit to protect her spiritual intelligence at the critical moment. However, in order not to alert the enemy, the aura did not repulse the long-distance control from the demon bloodline.

Everything that happened afterward had been planned. The Demon’s Door was opened in this desolate area. Yuanen Yehui had even managed to receive the Demon Monarch’s pure bloodline.

In reality, the power in her and her mother was said to have originated from A Erba’s division. The divided demon energy formed into a seed and was sent to Douluo Continent after A Erba opened up a portal in space.

The Demon Monarch that had lived for countless years waited in anticipation for this seed to germinate and take root. This was because he was well aware that it was utterly meaningless for him to remain on the demonic plane. In order to break through the restrictions and reach god-rank, he had to find a detour just like the Limit Douluos on the Douluo Continent were using all sorts of methods hoping to achieve their own break throughs. He was just like them.

Thus, Yuanen Yehui was acting just like a part of A Erba when she unleashed the Fallen Angel martial soul. She would not be repulsed by him. The crucial effect of this plan was happening at this exact moment.

The Demon Monarch did not just unleash his origin power to protect the Great Demons. More importantly, it was because he was sparing no effort in his attempt to escape.

On the Douluo Continent, he would be able to recover his life force by devouring other creatures as long as he could escape. In fact, he could even reopen the Demon’s Gate once again.

What a waste that he had forgotten about the seed that brought him to this plane. At this exact moment that seed was pointing out his location to the creatures that could threaten his life.

Because of that very bloodline A Erba did not notice that there was an additional beacon of light guiding them to him, despite his power.

Out of nowhere, a radiant door suddenly opened beside the purple-gold hues. An gigantic azure-green claw suddenly emerged from the door and ferociously reached into the Destruction Storms.

The Destruction Storms dispersed and shattered in succession. The sharp claw sailed through the sky, brazenly cutting through. The Demon Monarch screamed out in agony and all the Destruction Storms were cut off almost instantly.
