Chapter 542 Chapter 542 – The Ant Transforming Into A Giant Dragon
The long spear swung.
All the colors had dimmed in the world before them, leaving behind only a long azure spear that displayed its radiance. That radiance was so brilliant that it made people forget about all the other colors.
The Blue Knight finally made his move, displaying such a shocking scene. A horrifying power was released, and a terrifying aura shrouded the area. Though it had yet to land on his body, the mere prelude of this attack was enough to defeat 99% of the people in this world.
Even if a sixth rank existence came, he would still not be a match and feel suffocated when facing the Blue Knight’s attack. It could even be said that the moment the Blue Knight had decided to make his move, the outcome seemed to have already been decided. However, it was a pity that his opponent at this moment was not anyone else but Chen Heng.
Facing this terrifying attack before him, Chen Heng only waved his hand, and the long azure sword was brandished. Pieces of runes rushed forward, erupting into a fatal storm. The long azure spear and the long sword ruthlessly collided with each other in the next moment.
A crisp sound rang out.
Under the Blue Knight’s gaze, the long sword in Chen Heng’s hand shattered into pieces. However, the azure spear was also blocked, making this attack a failure. Yet, the Blue Knight did not care about this but only revealed a cold smile on his face and charged forward.
His body was tall and big, and he directly charged toward Chen Heng, swung the long spear in his hand down, and stabbed at Chen Heng. His movements were swift and fierce, like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky. An ordinary person couldn’t catch up with that kind of speed. However, no matter how fast his pace was, Chen Heng still managed to catch his movements.
A suffocating confrontation began to appear the next moment. Waves of fatal sounds erupted. The two seemed to have collided thousands of times within a short period. A powerful force spread from the center of the battlefield toward the outside world. With a rumble, waves of different colors spread out and shrouded the sky.
That terrifying collision of forces was so shocking that people could not help but sigh. Chen Heng’s figure flew out and crashed onto the ground a moment later. He crashed into a mountain, causing the mountain to collapse and turning an area into fragments.
“It’s only to this extent!” The Blue Knight’s figure stood in mid-air and mockingly looked at Chen Heng beneath his feet.
The power they displayed was indeed mighty. However, Chen Heng could barely hold on for just a short moment though it was only at this level. How could Chen Heng fight with him? He was just overestimating himself.
A ray of light shone in all directions, and a mighty divine power surged out like a long dragon, making the surroundings stop. Chen Heng’s figure appeared once again in the light, rus.h.i.+ng into the air and arriving before the Blue Knight.
“As expected.” He sighed before the Blue Knight
“What?” The Blue Knight frowned and subconsciously spoke. “I’m still not your match in this state.” Chen Heng’s voice sounded. ‘This state?’ The Blue Knight subconsciously frowned and felt puzzled hearing this. He felt that something was wrong in the next moment. An inexplicable change was happening in Chen Heng’s body. The sun shone on all four corners of the world and Chen Heng’s body on the horizon, bringing an inexplicable sense of illusion. It was as if the Chen Heng before him was not real but just an imaginary figure. Yet, how was this possible? A unique aura spread out as if the power of true spirit was surging out, looking incredibly unique. The Blue Knight was stunned, sensing this aura, and suddenly looked at Chen Heng’s body, appearing particularly strange. There was an inexplicable cold color in it, as if it was transparent and did not have the real touch of a body. The aura emitted from his body also revealed Chen Heng’s current state.
“You don’t have a body. You only have a pure, true spirit!” The Blue Knight’s expression finally changed, sensing Chen Heng’s current state. He felt that something was wrong.
Chen Heng had been fighting with the Blue Knight in his true spiritual state. This was something the Blue Knight had never expected. Although the power of a true spirit was mighty and represented the gathering of the origin of a living being, it was also feeble. That was why a body was needed to bear, protect and maximize the power of a true spirit.
Before this, the Blue Knight had never thought that someone would dare to use his true spirit to fight with others. Wasn’t he afraid that something would happen to his true spirit? Chen Heng’s answer to this question was naturally not afraid. He maintained this state, other than being helpless initially because he had deliberately tempered his true spirit in the end.
Because Chen Heng had already realized that in this state where he had lost his body and only had a pure, true spirit left, it was perfect for the growth of his true spirit. Thus, in the end, Chen Heng deliberately maintained this state to temper the power of his true spirit. This was also the reason why he had always maintained this state.
However, it was impossible to continue like this at this time. In the end, the power of a pure, true spirit was still greatly restricted. It was impossible to unleash its total capacity without a sufficiently strong body to bear it. It felt like his hands and feet were tied.
Therefore, Chen Heng didn’t hesitate anymore. He looked in a particular direction. Invisibly, a resonance had already occurred. In the distance, a change began to happen quietly in the Oriel family’s manor. Lu Yao and Gunali were sitting in the garden, but they suddenly felt a s.h.i.+ft. A vigorous vitality came from Lu Yao’s side, carrying a strong vitality reaction.
Sensing this change, she subconsciously turned and looked. She was stunned, seeing that the huge Golden Dragon Tree was still there. This Golden Dragon Tree was a treasure pa.s.sed down from generation to generation in the Oriel family and had grown for many years. However, the Golden Dragon Tree’s body was filled with cracks.
Bang!
A crisp sound erupted. A blazing flame shrouded the tree and started to burn. This flame was feeble initially, but it became more and more vigorous after that. In the end, it surrounded the entire tree.
For a moment, it was as if this place was on fire, shrouding the entire Golden Dragon Tree.
However, the vigorously-burning flame did not react to anything other than the Golden Dragon Tree. The only ignited thing was the Golden Dragon Tree before them, while other things thrown into the flame would not be ignited.
Amid the vigorous flame, the long cry of a Divine Bird resounded across the entire Hechi Star and was heard by everyone. The voice was filled with a strong vitality and the joy of waking up from a long slumber. Then, Lu Yao saw the figure of a Divine Bird rus.h.i.+ng out from the Golden Dragon Tree, but it was not just that.
“Is that a person?” Lu Yao’s gaze was fixed on the remains of the Golden Dragon Tree before her as she pulled Gunali.
She saw a figure standing up with the Divine Bird in the remains covered in flames. The flames were swirling, and a vigorous aura of life was spreading.
Like a G.o.d that had just risen, his entire body was covered with an aura of intimacy. He was alone, and his whole body was burnt, but he was also like a G.o.d born on fire, carrying a sacred and inviolable aura.
Finally, the figure raised his head and revealed his face. He was extremely handsome, as perfect as a G.o.d in the sky. His look was soul-stirring and unforgettable, carrying the spiritual energy that the world had given. His appearance was no different from Chen Heng, with an extra layer of spiritual energy. “Brother!” Lu Yao’s face was filled with shock. She had not expected this outcome.
In front, that figure seemed to have heard Lu Yao’s call. He nodded at her, then turned around and soared into the sky directly.
Flames were swirling. The Divine Bird let out a long cry and was inflated by the wind. In an instant, it transformed and reached a height of several hundred meters. On the back of the bird, a figure opened his arms and bathed in the divine fire as it rushed forward.
An unrivaled aura was emitted, so powerful that it was not inferior to the Blue Knight and the others.
“This is…” The Crimson Knight’s expression changed when the strange phenomenon appeared in mid-air as if she had realized something
“That Divine Bird at that time…” She looked at the Divine Bird.
Chen Heng, standing in confrontation with the Blue Knight, had disappeared. There was a unique connection between his body and his true spirit. When the body that belonged to him appeared, Chen Heng’s true spirit automatically charged forward and merged with his body, becoming one.
Boom!
Finally, the Divine Bird let out a sharp sound and rushed forward. During this process, the figure shrouded in the divine fire also moved. As the long sword in his hand waved and slashed forward, the color of the entire world seemed to change, bringing with it a mighty force that was enough to cut down the G.o.ds in the sky and suppress the Nine Underworld G.o.ds that came from h.e.l.l.
The Blue Knight’s expression immediately changed with this strike. He had an inexplicable feeling as the mighty aura rushed toward him. The world was turbulent as if everything was changing. Even the sun, the moon, and the stars were changing. Everything was showing up, and they were all charging toward him.
For a moment, it was as if the entire world was changing. That power rushed towards him concurrently, wanting to suppress him here.
Bang! He charged forward with the long azure spear, letting out an indignant roar. The mighty power in his body seemed as if it was about to be fully unleashed. Even if the entire world was standing in the way, he still wanted to pierce through it and give a remarkable result.
Bang!
In the end, this attack was blocked. The Divine Bird cried out, and the flames were burning and swirling, enveloping its entire body. The Blue Knight’s body kept retreating as he was at a disadvantage at this moment. A shock appeared on his face as if he had seen something unbelievable.
“How is this possible…”
Who was this person? As one of the Five Knights of the Round Table and the strongest person below the King, how could the Blue Knight be at a disadvantage with his strength unless he faced a King? The Blue Knight didn’t dare to believe it, so he attacked again.
Flames swirled around the sky, and the phantom of the Divine Bird appeared. A figure also appeared in the air. Chen Heng stood behind the Divine Bird. His body was tall and straight like a mountain and as majestic and powerful as the world. His expression was cold and arrogant. He opened his arms as if he was embracing the world’s weight. His eyes were full of battle intent, and his will was terrifying. A powerful aura spread out undisguised, causing waves of cold air to spread in one’s heart, rus.h.i.+ng straight to the tailbone and densely covering the entire body, unable to stop. Following that, under the gaze of the Blue Knight, he punched with a cold expression.
Bang!
In just an instant, the body of the Blue Knight shattered cleanly, as if an iron rod had struck a watermelon. Blood with a dazzling divine glow spilled over the ground, and strange phenomena appeared. The Blue Knight’s shattered body was healing. He was not completely dead yet.
This was very normal. After all, such a powerful existence had already reached a highly tenacious vitality level. He couldn’t die so quickly. However, as the Holy Fire burned, his aura rapidly weakened as if he had been affected by something. Yet, merely this level was enough to make people’s expressions change.
“Something’s wrong!” Looking at the Blue Knight’s miserable state in the distance, the Steel Knight’s expression changed. “How can he be so strong? What on earth is going on with his strength?” Even though Chen Heng had taken back his body, combined his true spirit with his body, and increased his power, this level of strength was still too much. Chen Heng’s combat strength had already exceeded the imagination of ordinary people. They were surprised and could not believe it.
The Blue Knight was not the strongest among the people present, but this did not mean that he was easy to deal with. Even if the Black King and the Steel Knight were to take action, it would take a long time for them to take down the Blue Knight. It would not be as easy as Chen Heng.
“He is in a special state, and his power has broken through a certain limit…” The Crimson Knight was also a little moved and made a judgment after sensing Chen Heng’s current state, “This state probably won’t last long, but it is mighty.”
“Attack immediately!” At the side, the Golden Knight said, “Otherwise, I’m afraid Blue won’t be able to hold on for long!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body moved, wanting to rush forward to support the Blue Knight. However, just as his body moved, the Black King’s body also moved concurrently. A layer of darkness shrouded the front, blocking the Golden Knight’s path and stopping him from moving forward.
The Black King finally made his move, blocking the Steel Knight and the Golden Knight. Although the Black King was at a disadvantage in the battle with the two knights before him, he was not defeated and could still hold on for a while. Both sides might not be able to make a move for a while.
The only one who could make a move was the Crimson Knight on the side. Looking at the scene before her, the Crimson Knight leaped forward and rushed toward the land before her without hesitation. With a rumbling sound, a huge crimson net spread out and covered the entire area, wanting to cover Chen Heng’s body completely.
At the same time, the Crimson Knight also turned the area into her unique domain, where any movement that could not escape the Crimson Knight’s senses would be detected and felt by her.
However, at the next moment, a substantial long cry erupted.
At this moment, everyone on the entire He Chi planet raised their heads and could see the scene that appeared in midair.
Under the heavens, the illusory image of a Divine Bird’s cry appeared, enveloping an unknown area of over 10,000 Li.
Over there, Chen Heng’s expression was cold as he looked at the Scarlet King that had opened up in midair and directly charged over.
Bang!
A series of sounds sounded.
Along with the Divine Bird’s long cry, the huge crimson network in the air was torn apart and didn’t even work.
Bang!
The sound of thunder resounded. A considerable amount of power rushed forward. People could see the actual scene that was revealed after the impact ended. They could see Chen Heng standing alone behind the Divine Bird under the sky. Opposite him, the Blue Knight and the Crimson Knight were standing together, and their figures looked a little embarra.s.sed.
Their auras were still powerful and terrifying, like a Demon G.o.d. However, their figures seemed weak under Chen Heng’s shadow. The two knights still couldn’t take down Chen Heng even if they joined hands. But instead, they were at a disadvantage.
Chen Heng stood alone, looking cold and stern. He did not say a single word. However, even if he just stood there, one could feel the cold, arrogant, and domineering conception, making people yearn for it. The Blue Knight and the Crimson Knight’s expressions were sour, standing under Chen Heng’s aura.
“His power is not far from when I was at my peak…” In the distance, the Black King felt Chen Heng’s aura and sighed, did not know what to say.
He knew that Chen Heng had been hiding something, but he did not care about it in the past. However, now, he could not help but feel surprised.
“Who are you?” The Blue Knight asked, his face full of doubt, “Your strength has reached such a level in just over a year. A so-called genius can never do this! Who on earth are you?” His heart was filled with disbelief, and doubt slowly appeared on his face.
It was just a little over a year since Chen Heng had escaped from the Crimson Knight’s pursuit. The ant from before had turned into a giant dragon before his eyes.
