Dragon Gate Swordsman

This shows to some extent that if they are always connected, they will definitely affect each other or even drag each other down when fighting natural disasters.

Yumen was facing a similar crisis at this time: the two plots of land pierced by the giant insect's energy cannon not only caused heavy casualties among the garrison personnel, but the power operation system also collapsed in an instant, and the huge structure also suffered devastating damage, causing them to directly become a "burden" to the entire city.

Before Zuo Xuanliao ordered the emergency blasting of the connecting bolts, Yumen was tilting to one side due to the collapse of these two blocks of land... It is unlikely that the whole city will "fall down", but if this situation is allowed, then when the connecting bolts can no longer withstand the pressure and break, the other blocks will fall back to the ground in a way that ordinary people cannot withstand, and the effect is no different from a super earthquake.

In order to avoid this situation, even if there are still many survivors in the attacked areas, Zuo Xuanliao must "cut off his arm" and "abandon" them for the safety of other blocks.

In addition, the giant insect is still threatening Yumen's safety several kilometers away. For now, we can only do our best...

As the Feiyu Battalion turned its guns and aimed at the gradually cracking streets, it blew off the connecting bolts that were still holding on to the lower levels one by one. The two severely damaged plots of land finally broke away from the main body of the city and collapsed with a sound like a landslide.

"Send out all the teams ready to attack! Save as many as you can!"

On the city wall, Zuo Xuanliao, covering his arm, shouted at the top of his lungs.

This was the first time he had doubted whether he could survive since he came to Yumen to take up his post.

The giant insect that came out of nowhere was too powerful. Even Military Advisor Wu and the Fairy in the Painting could not fight it together. The firepower that Yumen was proud of was completely useless against it... It seemed that even if Master Wu was present, he would probably only end up in a draw.

As the former commander of Yumen, he knew that with Chongyue's strength, he might be able to surpass Advisor Wu and the Fairy in Painting, but he might not be able to catch up with the two of them together, not to mention that he had the assistance of Chongxiao, the captain of the Imperial Guards.

But... Captain Chongxiao seems to have withdrawn from the battle?

Zuo Xuanliao did not notice that someone had been beaten into the Yumen city wall. After all, just half a minute ago, the giant insect had blasted off two plots of land with one shot. It was already quite difficult for him to grab the things around him to stabilize his body in time, so he had no time to watch the battle situation in the distance.

At this moment, a guard suddenly shouted in horror.

"General! Get out of there!"

Before Zuo Xuanliao could react, his dedicated soldiers dragged him away without saying a word.

"Let go! How can you behave like this? What are you doing!?"

"General, look!"

Following the trembling fingers of his personal soldier, Zuo Xuanliao was shocked to find that where he had just stood, wisps of flames were gushing out from the water trough on the city wall like a spring.

What is most frightening is that these flames are all pure black...

Zuo Xuanliao has been stationed in Yumen for many years, but he has heard that sometimes the flames caused by source stone energy will appear in this color because it contains a large amount of impure high-heat source stone dust.

In other words, this "toxic" flame can easily infect people within a certain range with mineral sickness.

The personal soldiers grabbed Zuo Xuanliao and wanted to take him away, but they were thrown away... Right now Yumen was at a critical moment of life and death. How could he escape from the battlefield when he was entrusted by Li Wuan to guard the city?

"Calm down! Take a look at the situation first!"

"But General..."

"shut up!"

After shocking his personal soldiers with his murderous aura, Zuo Xuanliao looked at the black flames again.

As soon as I took a look, I immediately found something wrong.

The flames caused by the energy of the Originium are essentially a phenomenon of thermal runaway, but the black flames rising from the water tank do not seem to have such great destructive power. Instead, they seem to be summoned by something and fly towards the air outside the city wall.

Soon, the black flames, which were growing in size exponentially, began to condense and quickly solidified into a giant body whose height far exceeded that of Yumen City.

The wings on its back slowly spread out, facing the giant insect that was fighting fiercely with Ling and Yu from a distance. Its entire body was covered with black scales, reflecting a slight metallic luster... Its touching limbs and slowly swaying long tail were extremely thick, and its neck and joints were covered with astonishingly large bony thorns, demonstrating a kind of majestic and domineering aura.

This creature has a similar specific name in the legends of the Terra continent: Ancient Drak.

At this moment, the border guards led by Zuo Xuanliao really didn't dare to even breathe... They didn't know how to deal with the giant insect in the distance, and a super monster of the same size appeared right next to Yumen.

But soon, they were dumbfounded...

Because this newly appeared super beast is actually a friendly force!

……

How many years has it been since I felt as excited as I do now?

Ling couldn't explain it clearly, and she didn't want to think about it... Her only thought now was to kill this hateful creature and avenge Chongxiao.

If I hadn't always dragged him to do this and that, if I hadn't insisted on going to the underground of the ruins, if I hadn't let him participate in the battle against the giant insects, how could it be...

"Sister Ling! Here she comes again!"

Xi was also struggling to hold on. She had previously relied on the Painting World Fairyland and the giant insect to hold on, but it had almost cost her half her life, and she didn't have much time to breathe after that.

But like her sister, she also wanted to risk her life to kill the opponent, otherwise...how could she repay Chongxiao for saving her life?

The two descendants of Sui attacked with all their might without caring about the consequences, and indeed gained the upper hand on the scene. The giant insect's huge body and powerful force of decay were still extremely powerful, but the Painting World Fairyland and Poetry Shaping Truth were both magical powers that could change reality and reverse the laws, so it was difficult for it to gain a clear advantage for a while.

In the violent and fierce dust, countless mountains, floods, light pillars, strange beasts, etc. were used as weapons, bombarding the giant insect recklessly.

In addition, the bombardment of the two Tianxuan-class battleships never stopped...

However, the situation changed when a large amount of black flames gushed out of Yumen's walls and condensed into a new super beast.

Ling, who noticed it at the first moment, quickly distanced himself from his opponent and looked at the black dragon with a look of doubt and surprise.

Her first reaction was that because she and Xi had completely let go, the consciousness of Sui in her heart awakened, and he appeared here in the form of an energy body.

If this were the case, there would be no hope for Yumen and all its residents.

But at this moment, Xi said something that stunned Ling.

"Eh? That... that's not..."

"Have you seen that creature!?"

"Maybe... Sister, be careful!"

The two Xian Jing instantly swung the giant swords in their mouths to block the decayed impact, and bought Ling a chance to dodge at the cost of their own lives.

The giant insect must have noticed the black dragon outside Yumen City, but it paid more attention to Ling Hexi.

Until a strong sense of crisis made it hastily raise its sickle limbs to block the top of its head...

The giant black dragon with its wings spread out flew into the sky at some point, and swooped down without hesitation in the storm that was comparable to a natural disaster. Its two front paws tightly grasped the huge sickle-shaped limbs, and then a burst of black flames suddenly erupted.

In the eyes of surprise, the forelimbs with unimaginable hardness quickly cracked under the burning of the black flames, and then were broken off by the dragon's claws!

This black dragon is here to help! ?

"Sister."

Xi, a little out of breath, suddenly appeared beside Ling, "I remember now."

"Remember...what?"

"Big brother and Chongxiao have been to my painting world. At that time, he was affected by something and fell into a state of trance. He also planned to destroy... my world."

"Is there such a thing?"

Ling suddenly felt a little dissatisfied with Zhongyue. It was ok that Ximei was indifferent and reclusive and not good at communication, but shouldn't he, as her elder brother, say something to her?

"I tried to stop him at that time, but there seemed to be another consciousness in Chongxiao."

"You mean, this is the four-legged dragon?"

Xi nodded affirmatively.

Although I'm not sure, the black flames released by the black dragon when fighting the giant insect are exactly the same as the power I saw in the world in the painting.

While the two were talking, two huge monsters were fighting desperately... The black dragon's strength and ferocity were no less than those of the giant insect, and the difference in size was negligible. The black flames were so strong that even Ling Hexi's shell, which she had no way to deal with, was burned and then torn off by the dragon's claws.

As for the giant insect's counterattack, it was not without effect. Its indestructible sickle-shaped limbs could directly tear apart the dragon scales and the skin covering them. The power of decay of all things also continued to erode the black dragon, but as long as more and more violent black flames passed by, its injuries would quickly recover.

No matter how you look at it, the Black Dragon has a clear advantage.

Ling Xi and the others retreated a certain distance and felt relieved... If this black dragon was related to Chong Xiao, then not only would his life have a chance to turn around, but the giant insect that was already at a disadvantage would also...

Go quickly and stop Chongxiao.

"What!?"

"This is……"

The voice that suddenly appeared in the two people's minds made their faces change drastically.

Go and stop him, Chongxiao, I will deal with the enemy.

"Stop him..."

Halfway through the conversation, something strange happened!

The Yumen city wall in the distance suddenly exploded, and a beam of light shot up into the sky, instantly penetrating the clouds and some transparent object above the clouds, until it disappeared into the sky that even the Sui Yi could not see.

What made Ling and Xi even more shocked was that the source of this beam of light... was none other than Chongxiao who was slowly floating up!

Chapter 111 The time has not come yet, wait for the future

In the years that followed, the residents of Yumen believed that there would never be another day as unforgettable as today.

A super giant insect appeared, the city was severely damaged, the ancient black dragon descended, a pillar of light exploded into the sky... This series of terrifying mutations would make anyone with a weak ability to withstand it faint.

Therefore, when Chongxiao, whose entire body was bathed in light, slowly rose into the sky, no one dared to stay nearby.

Even Zuo Xuanliao, who had firm beliefs, understood that this kind of power that caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth was no longer a situation that mortals like them should intervene in. Even if they were not far away, they might be affected and become meaningless victims.

Therefore, no one noticed that the source of the light was actually the new captain of the imperial guards.

Except for the two people who just came back...

"Chongxiao?"

Ling asked tentatively before he could even find his footing.

At this moment, she couldn't see clearly what was happening inside the ball of light, and Chongxiao's figure was just a blurry shape without any details.

Ling was not even sure whether Chongxiao could hear his voice at this moment.

The city wall under his feet... or strictly speaking, the ruins of the city wall, seemed to be under extremely terrifying pressure. Flashing thunder appeared everywhere from time to time. Countless brick and stone fragments floated in the air and were crushed into powder by some force.

Xi, who was watching coldly, was a little skeptical. If this energy did not rush straight into the sky, would it directly destroy the other two plots of land in Yumen?

"Sister Ling, is that really him?"

“…It must be.”

Ling's tone was firm.

Then, she did something that Xi couldn't accept: she walked directly to the bottom of the light column.

Seeing this, Xi seemed to want to say something, but in the end just sighed softly... Wasn't it your sister and yourself who made Chongxiao become what he is now?

In the distance, the fight between the black dragon and the giant insect was still going on, but the outcome was already quite obvious.

The giant insect has not stopped fighting since it awakened from the depths of the ruins. It has used large-scale destructive moves more than once. It can be clearly felt that it is at the end of its strength.

Otherwise, Ling Xi and the other two might not have been able to suppress it for so long...

The black dragon, which had a close relationship with Chongxiao, launched a fierce attack as soon as it arrived. It was obvious that it was in the best condition, and it was naturally very easy for it to overcome the opponent's strength.

But why did it ask Ling and Xi to stop Chongxiao?

Ling didn't understand... Whether it was Chongxiao's mysterious identity and power, or the origin and race of this giant insect, it made her, who had traveled around the world, feel extremely confused.

But now, the most important thing should be to "awaken" Chongxiao.

As the distance to the light got closer, Ling felt an extremely oppressive force, as if an ancient god, although showing no malice, was staring at him with a majestic and indifferent gaze.

Chongxiao, you don’t want to hurt me...right?

He did not summon Xian Jing, nor did he use the magical power of Shi Xiang Su Zhen, and even Wen Meng disappeared in his hands.

Having just experienced a fierce battle, she looked a little tired, haggard, and dusty, completely losing the demeanor of a goddess. She walked slowly but firmly towards the figure step by step, and seemed to have become an ordinary human woman.

Not far away, Xi, who was trying his best to resist the overflowing spiritual energy, couldn't help but sweat in his palms... both for his sister who was taking risks, and for Chongxiao, who didn't know what state he was in.

Fortunately, the shining light did not have any ill will towards Ling, and even subtly made way for her in a less clear path.

At the end of the road was Chongxiao, who was suspended in mid-air with a wooden expression and lifeless eyes.

Ling suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and without caring that he seemed to be naked, he quickened his pace and walked over.

"Chongxiao, it's me..."

no response.

Ling suddenly noticed that Chongxiao's left hand was still holding the remaining part of the rebellious sword, and strangely, there were obvious bloodstains on it.
