Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

220: Chapter 220 Humanity’s First Stop”Latest intel, abnormal dark clouds have appeared in the Qinling Mountains again!”

”It must be that mythical creature, the dragon, appearing again!”

”Prepare for battle!”

The leadership of Jianghai City had long received the report from the meteorological bureau, and now they were all standing by in full alert!

”That mythical creature, the dragon, must be eliminated as soon as possible. There is no doubt about that. Otherwise, as the concentration of spiritual energy in the environment rises, heaven knows what level this terrifying creature will evolve to!”

”We must nip this source of danger in the bud!”

The leaders of Jianghai City held a hostile view toward the mythical dragon. After all, although they claimed to be descendants of the dragon, that was merely a shared belief.

In myths, not all dragon-like creatures were friendly; there were also evil dragons that devoured humans!

Although this dragon was not heading toward Jianghai City, in this era, if it wasn’t human, it was an enemy of humanity!

”Prepare for battle!”

”Yes!”

...

At the defensive line on the outskirts of Jianghai City, the two regiment commanders were startled when they received the battle order.

Because the instruction they received stated that their combat target was the creature in the dark clouds in the sky... and that creature was actually a mythical creature—a dragon!

”Do mythical creatures really exist in this world? The leaders aren’t joking, are they?”

”Although I don’t want to believe it’s true either, we are soldiers. We must obey orders and protect the safety of Jianghai City!”

”Hurry up and get ready for battle...”

Soon, the battle order was relayed down to the grassroots soldiers of the two regiments.

The nearly three thousand troops in the two regiments experienced a brief moment of shock upon learning that their target in the sky was a dragon.

They quickly pulled themselves together.

”Now is not the time for hesitation. Behind us is Jianghai City; we absolutely cannot let this evil dragon destroy our city!”

On the ground.

Missile launch vehicles slowly raised, aiming at their target.

At this moment, the sky was covered in dark clouds, the light was dim, and the land quickly darkened.

Torrential rain began to fall from the sky at some unknown point, and an invisible sense of pressure filled the area, causing the wild beasts in the forest to quickly quiet down and retreat into the distance.

”Roar!”

A high-pitched dragon roar came from within the dark clouds, and a massive, long-bodied creature poked its torso out from the clouds.

”Damned thief! Prepare to meet your death!”

The anger, akin to a volcanic eruption, caused even the heavy rain to recoil. This massive sound quickly spread within a hundred-mile radius.

The leaders of Jianghai City were focused on this, listening to the angry dragon roar coming through the communicator.

Their bodies trembled uncontrollably, their eyes filled with fear.

”This dragon is really coming for the Ancient Divine Phoenix. It seems like the Ancient Divine Phoenix stole something important...”

”Stop talking so much, let’s start the battle!”

”This time, we must not let this dragon leave alive!”

...

”Thunderstorm missile launcher, target locked!”

”Mountain Wind No. 3 missile vehicle, target locked!”

”Giant missile vehicle, target locked!”

”Snowman missile vehicle...”

Within the defensive line, the tense voices of combat personnel continuously came through the communicator.

The two sweating regiment commanders looked at each other.

”Fire!”

”Fire!”

As their words fell...

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The missile launch vehicles fired the long-prepared missiles. These were medium-sized projectiles, five or six meters long, rising from the ground like sharp swords as they shot toward the long figure hidden in the dark clouds in the sky!

Compared to the long figure in the sky, the size of this group of missiles was completely insignificant...

Heaven knows just how massive the creature hidden in the dark clouds truly was!

Within a few seconds, the missiles entered the cloud layer!

”Hmm? What are these little things...”

A voice of confusion rang out...

Boom!

A massive explosion erupted instantly!

The terrifying high-temperature shockwave from the explosion instantly vacuumed the rain for dozens of miles around, and a large hole was blasted into the dark clouds in the sky!

Amidst the massive fireball of the explosion, a long figure fell from the high altitude like a meteorite...

Boom!

The forest floor shook, as if an earthquake had occurred!

”Target hit! Great!”

”Hahaha! Even if it is a mythical creature, the dragon, it’s just a creature with a larger body. How could it possibly be a match for us humans!”

”I actually got to witness the downfall of a dragon with my own eyes!”

The three thousand soldiers were all very excited and happy. For them, dragons were powerful creatures from legends, so they were naturally excited and happy to have defeated such a powerful creature.

They weren’t like foreign countries that had pure faith.

If an angel appeared in a foreign country, they would surely worship it, while the people of Daxia would only consider how to eliminate such a dangerous creature.

The two regiment commanders also breathed a sigh of relief.

”I just feel that this dragon doesn’t match the image of the divine dragon in our impressions; it seems to be missing something...”

”Yeah, I have that feeling too. Anyway, our mission is to eliminate this dragon creature. As for the task of studying the creature’s corpse, let’s leave that to the biologists in the city.”

”That’s true...”

...

At the summit of Divine Phoenix Mountain.

Little White Fox Ah Li sat upright on a dry rock. The summit was not dampened by the rain because, due to Ye Yang’s presence, the rainwater evaporated before it could even land on the summit.

”Chirp chirp... Is this stingy dragon really a dragon? Why is it so weak...”

”Chirp chirp... I just feel like something is weird...”

Beside her stood a large, fiery-red bird.

”I have that feeling too. This creature doesn’t seem to be a dragon...”

Ye Yang narrowed his eyes. His eagle-eye vision was better than the most advanced detection equipment in the world, so he could see the appearance of the creature in the dark clouds more clearly than any other creature.

”Although it has the appearance of a dragon, it is not the same as in the myths and legends...”

Dragon horns like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, neck like a snake, belly like a clam, scales like a fish, claws like an eagle, palms like a tiger, ears like an ox...

These legendary characteristics did not all appear on that creature, which made Ye Yang suspicious.

”Perhaps the legends are inaccurate, or this creature is not a dragon-type creature...”

The distance was too great just now, so Ye Yang had not used the Detection Spell on that creature.

”Chirp chirp... Big Brother, has that stingy dragon been eliminated by human missiles?”

Ye Yang shook his head.

”Chirp chirp... But I can no longer sense that stingy dragon’s aura...”

Ye Yang explained, ”Creatures of our kind do not die so easily. This isn’t even a large-scale missile; how could this creature die so easily?”

”Roar!!!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than an angry dragon roar echoed from the ground in the distance!

Every creature present knew that this creature was angry!
