917 14.193 Last Violet Star – The Dragon and Providence.
Hou Longqing was standing in front of the wounded dragon when Jin Baihua began to insult him. Heilan was staring at them with rage and determination in his eyes. He particularly despised Jin Baihua. No person could have loved this traitor more because he was to blame for the destruction of all four great cities, not just the Imperial City. In the Mortal Realm right now, only the Western City still remains.
“Your Dragon seems to be dying too as well. What do you plan to do next? Heh~”
“Shut your mouth!” yelled Hou Longqing.
Devil Fennu saw what Hou Longqing was doing and tried to stop him. “Stop him!” Unfortunately, it was too late.
Hou Longqing took a crystal orb from his robes and used it to activate a small but effective Heavenly Saint Grade barrier around Heilan and himself. Regardless of the repercussions, he ignited the defensive formation on it using his life essence as fuel. Hou Longqing was contained in it as well as Heilan in his dragon form.
Hou Longqing took the Imperial Seal from his storage and flung it towards Heilan while gazing at him with eyes filled with love and sadness. The Emperor Seal is a work of art made by the universe.??ℯ??????ѵ?l. c??
From one Human ruler to the next, it was transmitted. continuing its role as the Human Emperor’s conduit for manipulating the fortune of all human races via him.
The Imperial Seal is shaped like a dragon rising its head and is made of gold. Naturally, this item is linked to the soul of its owner, and Hou Longqing is the present owner. Both Devil Fennu and Devil Shulan reacted differently when they saw Emperor Seal. Demon Fennu scowled as though antic.i.p.ating a negative outcome. On the other hand, when Devil Shulan saw the Mortal Realm’s World Artifact, he appeared happy and enthusiastic.
Devil Shulan said, “It’s the Emperor Seal! The real one! With it... the human race will have to listen to us regardless of who we are as long as the Seal of the Mortal Realm is in our hands, all humankind would be under our control. This includes the great sects and the human emperor. Brother Fen, please destroy the barrier. That Seal is useful to us.”
.....
“The barrier around him is at least a Heavenly Saint rank. I’m only a True Immortal at my peak. He is using his own life as fuel to that barrier. It wouldn’t last long.” Devil Fennu said as he closed his eyes as if waiting for the lifespan of the Human Emperor to end.
Stunned Jin Baihua mumbled, “Using his own life essence as a catalyst. What can he do by doing so?”
“He wants... to help the dragon to ascend. As long as it ascends to the Upper Realm, it would have nothing to do with the Mortal Realm, and we, the demon race, can’t touch him.” Devil Fennu said.
Devil Shulan and the rest thought collectively as they looked at Hou Longqing inside the barrier.
“Has he gone crazy?!”
While looking at Hou Longqing inside the barrier, Devil Fennu asked, “An outcast of the Snake Tribe in the Demon World. Someone hated by his own race and someone who used to be the enemy of your race. Human Emperor, Is he worth it?”
“For me, is he worth it? The same reason why you accepted Jin Baihua.” Hou Longqing said.
Hou Longqing looks at the head of the black dragon that is resting on his lap. He had no idea when Heilan had pa.s.sed out from agony, but for him, this was preferable since it would mean that Heilan couldn’t stop him from what he was about to do next. The Emperor Seal was brought into the air above Heilan’s dragon head by him, and it was then shattered by his own hand. His soul’s link to the seal was suddenly severed, which had a negative knock-on effect on him.
Blood drips from the corners of his lips and eyes, yet his loving gaze remains fixed on Heilan.
The Mortal Realm’s Providence emerged from Emperor Seal’s core when it was destroyed.
It is a ball made of a shining sphere of gold. This is the human race’s providence. All the good fortune the mortal realm could muster. Hou Longqing had access to enough of the golden orb to become a G.o.d, but instead of using it on himself, he gave it to Heilan, who was dozing on his lap.
Hou Longqing places the dragon’s head on his lap and kisses its face with devotion. The scale of the black dragon appears to be formed of obsidian. Unclouded, pure darkness. Hou Longqing thinks it is stunning and regal. Heilan’s fiery dragon eyes when open make him appear to be a malevolent G.o.d emerging from the earth.
“Lan-ge, thank you for accompanying me until the end. I want to bestow on you all the luck the human race has. This is an act of going against heaven so we might not meet again in the future. Even so... I wanted you to live. Don’t blame me that I can’t be by your side in the future. Ascend in the Upper Realm. There is no way a Dragon is born without a reason. I hope when... you woke up... you would not blame me for this...”
Hou Longqing smiled serenely and gently closed his eyes as he leaned toward the dragon’s head. He closed his eyes, and the Human Emperor was gone for all eternity in the Mortal World. Heilan’s entire being underwent modifications as the good fortune that the mortal realm contained entered into his body.
He had grown back the shattered scales and missing flesh during his battle with Devil Fennu. His normally black scales exhibited indications of a violet tinge beneath the light, and his stature significantly grew. His forehead developed a crown shade, denoting an improvement in his lineage and the healing of all of his wounds.
Under the watchful eyes of Devil Fennu and the others, he advanced from the cultivation stage of the Peak Soul Transformation Stage to the ascension stages of the first, second, and third. Up until he attained the True Immortal Stage, which abruptly comes to an end as he must get through the Thunder Tribulation that erupts above his head.
Rumbles~ bzzt! RUMBLES!!
“Tribulation Clouds and Thunder! f.u.c.k! How can the coverage be this huge!?”
Devil Shulan trembles under the sight of tribulation thunder above his head. This is a trial of the Heavenly Laws and only those who survive this would be able to Ascend successfully in the Upper Realm.
“Retreat! This is a Tribulation of a True Immortal. We can die if we get caught with it.” Devil Fennu said.
“True Immortal!? Isn’t that the same stage as you, Brother Fen!? We can’t let him succeed! If he successfully ascends as we caused the death of the Human Emperor. This Dragon will never forgive us.” Devil Shulan said.
“Run for now.”
RUMBLES~ Bzzt! Cracks~ BOOOM!!
As the Tribulation Thunder arose over the Imperial City, Devil Fennu seized Jin Baihua and the other two. The majority of local beings were alarmed by the excessive media coverage of this affliction. Thunderclaps began to sound, and lightning began to rumble.
Thunder is more of a source of nourishment than a source of punishment for Heilan, a Pureblood Dragon whose primary components are darkness, poison, and thunder. Thunder is generally not a fear for dragons because they were created to dwell in the skies with it.
After being hit by thunder several times, Heilan eventually opened his eyes. He experienced an endless supply of energy in his body and was unable to explain where it came from. He only vaguely realized what had transpired when he saw the breathless Hou Longqing trapped between his claws. As soon as he changed back into his human form, he discovered that both his injuries and his tail had recovered.
With those closed, motionless eyes that stared at him with tenderness, he glanced at Hou Longqing as he was in his arms. Heilan knew something wasn’t right when he couldn’t hear his heartbeat.
“A’Qing don’t scare me like this. Open your eyes please!”
Heilan tried to wake up Hou Longqing in his arms but the latter remained unresponsive. He denied the soundless heartbeat he couldn’t hear from Hou Longqing, he ignored the breathless body in his embrace. He turned himself numbed at the cooling temperature of Hou Longqing’s body. The black dragon didn’t want to accept the fact that he lost the most important person in his life.
“I’m begging you. A’Qing, I don’t like this. Why... Why... Why do you have to leave me!? You are the only one who accepted me for what I am. Regardless, of whether I am evil or not. I stayed here to protect you, not for you to sacrifice yourself for me!!!”
Heilan’s sanity crumbled and his heart broke at the loss of his sweetheart. He protected the frozen body of his sweetheart in his arms while ignoring the thunder that was pouring down on him like he wanted to die under it. Ascension is often never simple. Heaven seldom accepts acts that are contrary to its will.
Heilan, however, had the Mortal Realm’s Providence bestowed on him. As he was becoming a deity in this dimension and this realm itself was preventing him from dying, all the luck in this realm was in him. The universe itself would not permit him to accept death, the world itself wouldn’t allow it.
ROOOOAAARRRR
Returning to his dragon form, Heilan clasped Hou Longqing’s body between his claws while gliding upward. At the same time that his tribulation came to an end, the barrier around him collapsed. His aura is now stronger than before, and his stature has doubled from his initial state.
But after losing the most significant person in his life, he became furious and began to look at demons and devils with malicious intent, especially at Devil Fennu who was indirectly responsible for Hou Longqing’s death.
Heilan spoke, “It is you! Because of you and your race my beloved had to sacrifice his life. I will never forgive you!!!”
ROOOOOAAAARRRR!!!
Heilan exhales a dragon breath that is poisonous and thunder. Devil Fennu and the other demons gathered in the area were the targets of this thunderous, venomous breath. Devil Fennu shoved Jin Baihua and the other two away from him since he was aware that he was the main target of the angry black dragon’s breath. He made the decision to ignore the dragon’s breath because he antic.i.p.ated that during his fit of wrath, the dragon would concentrate all of his a.s.saults on him.
“A’FEN!!!”
Jin Baihua watched worriedly as Devil Fennu’s qi barrier couldn’t completely block the Dragon Breath of Heilan. A few poison and thunder hit the skin of his arms immediately burning his skin and poisoning him.
Sizzle~ Argh!
Tch! For Devil Fennu to stop the poison from spreading, he had to tear off both of his arms. A dragon that attained Ascension was given a poison that also contained divinity. For the devil and demons, this poison is the most lethal.
Fast regeneration was a trait shared by the Devil Race, although it wasn’t as deceptive as the immortal body of the Xue and Hei Immortal Clan. It would take at least one hour to regrow a severed limb. Naturally, Heilan would not give Devil Fennu that chance and once more struck him with a Dragon Breath. Devil Fennu had to employ brief teleportation several times to escape the dragon’s breath this time.
“Die. Just die. I want you all to die!” said Heilan in the midst of his madness.
All of his wrath for Devil Fennu and his people was directed at them. He killed them all with his dragon breath. Devil Fennu and the other three received some burns and poisoning, but Heilan’s Dragon Breath, the Black Dragon, had reduced the low-level demon herds on the ground to dust.
He certainly didn’t intend to spare anyone.
The call of the Upper Realm is audible to Heilan. Because the Lower Realm cannot support the existence of Immortals, those who successfully completed their Ascension Tribulation were compelled to depart the Mortal Realm. But, if Heilan sealed his divinity like Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye, he wouldn’t be drawn up by the Upper Realm for ascension. He is currently refusing to answer the summons to rise, and Heilan was aware that he was running out of time. As a result, he attempted to kill as many of my demons as possible.
