Chapter 624 - 480: Battle at the Pinnacle (Part 2) – The Druid’s Mark of Conviction
Within the battlefield of calamity, a trace of consciousness descended upon the silhouette of the black crystal dragon at the moment Qi Ping and the dragon’s phantom clashed.
The black crystal dragon finally opened its tightly shut eyes!
With eyes like those that have slept for countless ages yet perceive all, chaos observed this world that had been blasted into a fragmentary ruin.
It glanced at its body shattered by the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber, and with a slight thought, the previously slow fusion now completed instantly!
Immediately, the cracks on its body also repaired in an instant.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a solidified black crystal dragon crowned with a black Chaos Crown completely formed!
A formidable pressure swept across the world instantly!
Yet the next moment, as the black crystal dragon just contemplated an action, its body instantly burst open with cracks.
"This sacrificial vessel is too weak, unable to even bear a trace of my consciousness..."
"Action must be taken with caution..."
This feeling of drilling into an ant-like flesh was exceedingly uncomfortable...
But for the celestial weapon of the Star Sea World, everything was worth it.
The old geezers of the Celestial Dragon World thought it was kept in the dark, but little did they know it had long planned ahead to steal a march.
If it were an ordinary Immortal Soldier, it wouldn’t have been worth exhausting its life to awaken, the Demon Realm isn’t short of such Immortal Soldiers.
However, the celestial weapon of the Star Sea World is different; it is one of the few keys in All Heavens and Myriad Realms, concerning the Immortal Realm that holds the secret of eternal life...
Acquiring this celestial weapon not only allows possession of one of the forefront-ranked divine artifacts but also grants the qualification to seek eternal life!
Its lifespan was running thin, the celestial key of the Star Sea World had to be obtained at all costs!
Now, only a few powerful worlds knew of the celestial weapon’s might; it must seize the opportunity.
What caused discomfort, however, was that the celestial weapon hadn’t truly emerged, yet it was forced to descend early!
As such, there exists the possibility of the celestial weapon hiding away completely.
Since each celestial weapon is the most unique existence within the heavens and possesses unimaginable intelligence!
But now, it had no choice, finding it itself was better than letting others seize it, anyway before the Star Sea World is destroyed, this celestial weapon can’t escape.
And what if it succeeded?
As for Qi Ping... it wasn’t even worth considering, even if its current vessel was too weak, someone who even struggled against its underlings could never withstand its temporal chaos.
However, just as it thought Qi Ping would be obliterated by the temporal chaos, a golden slash suddenly came at it!
The terrifying slash not only carried Heaven-Slaying Power but also an overpowering force crushing everything, leaving a hideous wound on its abdomen in an instant.
"What?"
The black crystal dragon was immensely shocked at the scene ahead; it had sensed it moments ago due to the body’s limitations but couldn’t completely evade it.
More astonishingly, someone managed to emerge from its temporal chaos?
It had already annihilated all consciousness within and confirmed that the Immortal Dao Foundation was completely collapsed...
So what was this in front of it?
The black crystal dragon gazed incredulously at the figure ahead:
It was a golden battle armor!
Except that within, there wasn’t anyone or any consciousness, but only a mysterious mark surrounded by the Power of Yin Yang and Five Elements; if the black crystal dragon had seen Qi Ping’s true form, it would have noticed the mark was the same as the Druid mark on Qi Ping’s brow.
The black dragon’s perception wasn’t wrong; Qi Ping’s Tree-man Avatar’s body consciousness under the temporal chaos was almost instantaneously obliterated, and now the Druid mark contained no consciousness, only the purest beliefs:
Planting trees, driving out Demonic Insects, protecting forests, safeguarding the home, maintaining celestial balance, sustainably inspiring world potential...
These beliefs were the ones Qi Ping had been comprehending and practicing since awakening the Druid profession, deeply imprinted within the Star Sea World through years and actions.
It was precisely these beliefs that completely resisted temporal erosion!
Even though Qi Ping’s avatar consciousness was worn out by temporal chaos, the Druid’s beliefs remained deeply imprinted, unmovable over endless ages.
After Qi Ping’s Tree-man Avatar consciousness was annihilated, the Druid mark continued practicing Qi Ping’s Druid beliefs... exterminating demons, safeguarding the home!
And the armor it controlled belonged to the power of the Emperor Druid!
This power differentiated from the Earth Immortal Druid’s, embodying extreme dominion, as Earth Immortal Druid’s power can only exert within its own domain, whereas Emperor Druid’s power is born of faith!
As long as its believers are alive, how could it be eroded by time!
As for the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber... the Druid mark and Emperor Druid armor could perceive that it harbored a demon nature increasingly flamboyant amidst temporal chaos, and that demon nature was one of its devotees... one of its power sources.
Therefore it unhesitatingly grasped it, breaking through temporal chaos, executing an Emperor Slash against the black crystal dragon!
This Druid mark fears neither time, nor life, nor death, nor victory, nor defeat, adhering only to its Druid beliefs:
Safeguarding the homeland, this demon must be exterminated!
The golden armor transformed by Emperor Druid paid no heed to the black dragon’s shock, charging again at the black dragon!
"What in the heavens is this?"
The black dragon gazed at the domineering golden armor with an all-knowing visage suddenly revealing a confusion.
The demon nature in the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber capable of resisting the Power of Time was indeed astonishing, yet within its understanding range, it had seen similarly astonishing things over the long eons,
But what was this golden armor and the Druid mark controlling it?
Staring at its freshly mended abdomen, which again bore a hideous wound, the black dragon was thoroughly enraged, decisively withdrawing part of the temporal chaos, and charged with the Demon Race’s purest and strongest physical might!
The terrifying force erupted, the horror and might of the Demon Race were thoroughly showcased!
The pitch-black dragon claw descended in an instant!
The Emperor Druid armor shattered instantly!
The Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was blasted into innumerable fragments by the terrifying dragon claw!
Even with pure physical strength, it remained remarkably powerful.
"What of the temporal chaos being ineffective?"
The black crystal dragon felt quite satisfied with its recent strike.
Yet as it intended to obliterate these fragments, the scattered fragments instantly converged into a form, a colossal golden armor wielding a Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber composed of countless fragments, slashing the waist of the black crystal dragon again!
