Chapter 3489 Slaying the Five Lakes Dragon King

In the sacred land of Xieluoschuan, a top-level battle broke out immediately after a few words.

The Five Dragon Kings are not well-known. Individually, none of them would be considered among the top, but when the five Dragon Kings are together, they are enough to rival the top tier of cultivators in the Three Realms.

As a gatekeeper, one may not have much power, but one must be strong.

This is also a common situation in various holy lands. For example, in the early years, the cultivators who patrolled the four heavenly gates of the Celestial Court were the Four Great Emperors such as Gouchen. Their strength was second only to the Three Pure Ones and the Jade Emperor. Another example is Wang Shan, the gatekeeper of the Lingxiao Palace, who is the strongest among the younger generation of the Celestial Court.

The combined strength of the Five Dragon Kings is impeccable, as many of them belong to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

There is the Dragon King's sharp metal, which is good at killing; there is the Dragon King's ambush with the Dragon-Hiding Stakes; there is the Dragon King's control of water to lay out the entire water area; and there is the Dragon King's mouth spewing purple flames to bring completely opposite attack attributes, making it impossible to defend against. Meanwhile, the Earth Dragon King controls the earth to build the most solid defense.

The reason why Zhang Xuezhou had no way to deal with the Five Lakes Dragon King was this: no matter how good he was at flying or how resilient he was, once he was trapped by the Five Lakes Dragon King, he would inevitably be tied up and brought back.

However, these five dragon kings also encountered their most troublesome opponent: the master of the Zhunti Sect, who was skilled at breaking the power of the five elements.

If one side builds and the other breaks, the battle will remain in the process of casting and breaking spells. In the end, it will be a contest of each other's endurance. There is even a high probability that the Zhunti Sect Master will be unwilling to expend his body and will be defeated. However, with the addition of the Jieyin Sect Master, who is good at defense, the result will be completely different.

"The Five Lakes Dragon King is doomed!"

After observing the battle for only a few dozen breaths, Zhang Xuezhou had already stood up and kept looking at the bronze gate in the lake.

"I wonder if the array artifacts of the three holy lands are inside!"

If he could rely on the glass, bluestone, and precious pearl array artifacts of the three holy lands to control the Hunyuan Wuji Array, and even unleash the array's power, Zhang Xuezhou felt that it might be possible to force Donghua and the others to retreat, or at the very least, allow him to retreat freely.

Like the countless noisy and cacophonous birds and bird demons above the sacred land of Xieluoschuan, he was powerless to assist the Dragon King of the Five Lakes.

If he wanted to find a way to participate, Zhang Xuezhou could only turn his attention to the Hunyuan Wuji Array that controlled the Ten Thousand Mountains.

He located the key points of the Hunyuan Wuji Array more than ten years ago and was familiar with some of the ways to control the array. He did not have the ability to control the array in detail, but he was not lacking in the ability to destroy things in a rough and reckless manner. After all, it is difficult to do good deeds, but it is much easier to do bad deeds that harm people.

Wings resembling light appeared on his arms, and Zhang Xuezhou stared intently at the bronze gate, trying to ascertain the situation inside.

If Zhu Jiuyin cannot hold up the tree alone, he will have to lend a hand to cooperate with the other party. If he is not strong enough, he will find Ren An and then quickly leave this place.

"Shameless! You two actually attacked together!"

"Does the leader of the Western religion have even the slightest bit of shame left?!"

"A top expert is bullying a dragon!"

The Five Lakes Dragon King had an eerie appearance, and would suddenly unleash the Five Elements spells to strike from various places, while also letting out bursts of shouts.

However, some of them lacked the strength to speak, and some dragon kings were already having difficulty speaking. After only a dozen or so exchanges, the dragon kings were already showing signs of weakness.

"Go!"

At some opportune moment, the Six Bamboos of Purity in the hands of the Master Zhunti flew out, followed by a series of blows from the Vajra Pestle.

Amidst the roaring waves, a dark golden dragon head soared high into the air, its body, less than five meters long, appearing and falling in the waves, creating ripples of crimson.

"Boss!"

A horrified voice rang out among the dragon kings.

They probably knew they would be defeated, but no Dragon King would have imagined dying so easily, and the Master Zhunti had no choice but to stop them once they were dead.

If he had known beforehand that it would lead to the death of the dragon, the Five Lakes Dragon King would have gathered all the demons in the sacred land to fight against it.

"Kill them!"

"Haotian has come to slaughter us!"

"He's after our bodies!"

From within the lake, the Dragon King roared, and another Dragon King let out a high-pitched, piercing cry, attempting to inform Zhu Jiuyin of the gravity of the situation. A somber bell tolled throughout the sacred ground, but as Xuan Nu unleashed a long-range sword strike, the bell's sound quickly faded away.

The noisy bird demons would swoop down towards the Eight Views Carriage from time to time, and then fall into the lake like raindrops.

"Time is running out. Show us your true skills, lest we miss the opportunity in the deduction," Donghua in the Eight Views Carriage urged, rising to his feet.

"I'd like to see how you deal with Zhu Jiuyin!"

After killing the Golden Dragon King, Master Zhunti retrieved his Vajra Pestle. He glanced at the Golden Dragon King's valuable body and, considering the difficulty of carrying the dragon's corpse over long distances, couldn't help but snort, feeling that such a dragon-slaying was a waste.

Killing the Five Lakes Dragon King presents various inconveniences, makes it difficult to make proper use of the dragon corpse, and puts one at a greater disadvantage when facing Zhu Jiuyin.

If the elixir cannot be refined on the spot, killing Zhu Jiuyin is meaningless.

However, given that Zhu Jiuyin's massive dragon body is bound to break through the heavens at the Kunlun difficulty level, Zhu Jiuyin wouldn't be foolish enough to cooperate.

If previous attempts at courteous treatment failed to lure them in, then violent violence would be an even worse option.

"fall!"

Within the protective system of the Guiding Master's Azure Lotus, the Zhunti Master unleashed his magic weapon once again without any restraint.

With a flick of the Seven Treasures Tree, the figure of the Wood Dragon King emerged from the waves.

As if sensing a deadly risk, the scales on the Wood Dragon King flew off and then transformed into hundreds of dragon-trapping stakes as thick as bowls.

The Seven Treasures Tree of the Zhunti Sect Master was swept away, and these Dragon-Hiding Stakes also collided heavily with the Azure Lotus of the Jieyin Sect Master.

With a dull thud, several Vajra Pestle flew out and pierced the Wood Dragon King's body. Countless tiny blue lotuses immediately appeared on the Wood Dragon King's body, causing his dragon body to wither almost instantly.

"I've been watching you for centuries, and now I've reaped the rewards ahead of time. It's a pity that my lotus flower has lost some of its benefits!"

The leader of the Guiding Sect chuckled as he manipulated the Azure Lotus, clearly satisfied with his gains.

The Seven Treasures Tree of the Cundi Sect Master once again struck the Wood Dragon King's body, smashing it into wood chips and flesh.

Bright halos and blue light appeared behind the two leaders from time to time. The immense spiritual power brought about a variety of ways to control magical artifacts and cast spells. The Dragon Kings used a method of controlling demonic artifacts to kill with a single blow, while the two leaders could control various magical artifacts when they reached out, each of which possessed great power.

This situation caused the Mysterious Woman, who was standing to the side of the Eight Views Carriage, to have a very serious expression. While wielding her sword to kill the approaching demons, she also looked into the carriage.

"Two of the Five Dragon Kings are gone, and their defeat is inevitable," Donghua said. "Once they lose their control, the gate to the secret realm can be opened easily!"

"What should Your Majesty do next to capture Zhu Jiuyin?"

"Although we don't know exactly what happened to Zhu Jiuyin, there is indeed an opportunity now. We can find out by opening the door and looking at his physical body!"

Donghua remained calm and composed, as if he were already aware of the situation and confident of victory.

He reached out and took out a large banner, and also some incense.

As the incense was lit, countless souls on the banner began to wail and roar, revealing distorted and eerie faces.

Among the many living souls, the figure of 'Bai' emerged.

Like many other living souls, 'White' appeared numb, empty, and insane, accompanied by the roars of the other living souls.

“This dead soul is immortal and indestructible; the Spirit Gathering Banner cannot bind it,” the Empress said.

"Why restrict it?" Donghua laughed. "As long as it can help a little, that's enough!"

The two exchanged questions and answers, but neither the emperor nor the empress understood what Donghua was going to do.

She frowned, but ultimately fell silent because the matter involved the elixir of immortality.
