Chapter 293: Strength beyond the Core Formation Realm
"Thunder and lightning!"
Old Master Nie shouted. The true essence around his body turned into terrifying electric arcs that surrounded Nie Dingtian"s body.
Then, he waved his hand, and the terrifying electric arcs flowed into Nie Dingtian"s palm. A terrifying power started to gather.
The dry gra.s.s in the ground actually started to spontaneously combust under the spell that Nie Dingtian had condensed. In an instant, Nie Dingtian also condensed his attack and aimed at the Venerable Lone Dragon.
This seemingly condensed spell took a lot of time, but in reality, it only lasted for a split second after Su Yi dodged the attack of the Venerable Lone Dragon.
Instead, it was a spell cast by the three elders at the same time.
Three extremely powerful spells were all aimed at the Venerable Lone Dragon, which were the seal, the flowing light, and the lightning ball.
The power of these three spells made the Venerable Lone Dragon slightly raise his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a strange arc as he shouted, "come on! Let this lord experience the spells of your human race!!"
As he spoke, the spiritual energy of the Venerable Lone Dragon shook, and his body seemed to be covered by a layer of black flowing light.
There was a sinister smile in his eyes. He crossed his hands and raised them, actually receiving the bombardment of the three spells of the elders.
Boom!!
An explosion resounded throughout the entire mountain range. The huge impact caused some of the demon beasts that were still charging forward to flip over on the ground, and a small mushroom cloud soared into the sky.
Even the elders who were casting spells were sent flying by the shockwave and landed in the distance. Su Yi was the only one who could stand in the middle of the shockwave.
At this moment, he crossed his hands in front of him and took a step back with his right foot. The true essence in his body exploded, resisting the impact brought by the explosion of the spell.
This movement naturally attracted the attention of the cultivators who were resisting the demon beast horde. The spells in their hands paused slightly as they looked at the mushroom cloud that soared into the sky in the distant mountain range. They couldn"t help but sigh.
"W-what exactly happened over there? How could there be such a terrifying attack!?"
However, before the cultivator could finish his shock, a cold light flashed and instantly killed the demonic beast behind the cultivator who was about to launch a sneak attack.
"Brother, stop daydreaming. Let"s deal with the demon beast first!"
Hearing this, the cultivator suddenly came back to his senses and began to cast spells to resist the demon beast army.
However, even though they had killed thousands of demon beasts in a short period of time, it was still of no use. After the outbreak period, they had fallen into a period of weakness, and even the true essence in their bodies was constantly being consumed.
The battle line was gradually broken through, and injured people began to appear among these cultivators. Then, they were sent back to the flying ship to recuperate.
For a time, faced with the large number of demon beasts that surged like the tide, the cultivators were already on the verge of retreat.
In the middle of the demon beast tide, where Su Yi and the others were, the smoke and dust slowly dispersed. There was a huge pit where the three elders attacked together, and there were still three traces of the aura of spells left in the pit.
It could be seen just how powerful this attack was. However, what surprised them was that a proud figure was still standing in the middle of the deep pit in the ground.
Terrifying black spiritual energy continuously circulated around the Venerable Lone Dragon"s body. His robes were also torn to shreds by the three spells. His st.u.r.dy body was covered in scales, which reflected a faint light, it made people feel fear.
"Your human spells are only so-so. They didn"t even hurt my skin, hahaha..."
Arrogant laughter rang out in the deep pit. Grandfather Nie and the others" expressions changed drastically. Even with such an attack, could it be that they could not harm Venerable Lone Dragon one bit?
Was the other party really only at the core formation realm?
They did not know that back in the Tian Yuan world, the Venerable Lone Dragon"s t.i.tle was a well-known name among the humans and demons.
Among the demons, he was an esteemed demon venerable, and his strength was extremely terrifying. He had been sealed for an unknown period of time, and his strength had decreased to the core formation realm of human cultivators. Foundation establishment realm techniques like theirs were not able to defeat him.
"Impossible! How could this be? is the core formation stage really so terrifying?"
Xu Que shouted in disbelief. It was not that there were not any core formation cultivators in the central sky region in his clan. However, the three of them had just used their spells to attack Lone Dragon.
Even a core formation cultivator would be injured or even seriously injured. How could this be...
Who knew that Venerable Lone Dragon"s figure would move and he would jump out from the deep pit. He stood in the air and spoke proudly.
"Who told you that I only have the strength to transform?"
They saw Venerable Lone Dragon slowly step into the air. With each step, his strength would change. From the beginning, they could still feel the power of the core formation. In the end, they could not feel the mysterious aura at all.
This meant that Lone Dragon"s strength was beyond their imagination.
Master Nie, Xu Que, and Lin Yan felt the immense pressure and their faces turned pale. They had never thought that Lone Dragon could recover to such a terrifying level of strength in the great desolate.
Could it be that even the laws of heaven could not stop him?
Was the great desolate about to be destroyed?
Unlike their battlefield, in the beast tide battlefield, all the cultivators" physical strength and true core strength were exhausted. Even the elders of the aristocratic families were injured.
Some of the weaker late-stage foundation establishment cultivators had already died to demon beasts.
The injured cultivators who were recuperating on the spirit energy ship were in a low mood. Only now did they realize how terrifying the beast tide was.
Even the top forces of the entire great desolate region could not withstand it. Then, could the great desolate region still be saved?
The flying ship was filled with an atmosphere of despair. On the other hand, grandfather Nie and the others were also in despair.
The great desolate region was about to fall...
Just as this atmosphere was spreading, Su Yi, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly stood on the ground and looked directly at the Venerable Lone Dragon in the sky.
He smiled lightly, and his gaze was filled with doubt as he looked at the venerable dragon one and said indifferently, "I don"t think so, senior dragon one. Although your aura is so strong that we are unable to sense what realm you are at, the power you can use now is only at the core formation realm. Am I right?"
Hearing this, Venerable Lone Dragon raised his eyebrows. His eyes revealed traces of anger as he said angrily, "you human brat, I didn"t attack you before. Instead of thinking about how to escape, you came to me. I understand. I will send you on your way now!"
After saying this, Venerable Lone Dragon raised his hand. Terrifying spiritual power condensed in his hand. He actually used a spell.
However, who knew that when Su Yi was not afraid at all when he saw that Lone Dragon was using a spell. The corner of his mouth curled up into a mocking expression.
Su Yi actually said, "aiya, the old monster that has been sleeping for G.o.d knows how many years is going to hit someone. I"m so scared, aiya, I"m scared of pain."
An extremely strange voice slowly sounded from Su Yi"s mouth, causing the scalps of Old Master Nie and the others not far away to go numb. This kid"s current tone was asking for a beating.
However, based on Su Yi"s personality, he definitely would not make such a move. What was he trying to do?
