A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Chapter 334: Retaliation of the Trapped Dragon

The giant head reared up along with the enormous body that it was attached to, rising up into the sky like a winding behemoth.

The "bridge" that had emerged earlier also rose up into the heavens along with it.

Only after it had completely ascended into the sky did everyone come to realize that the owner of the giant head was a huge black dragon that was over 100,000 feet in length.

The dragon had a pair of sharp curved horns that were giving off a menacing black gleam, and black smoke was swirling all around its enormous body, which obscured virtually the entire sky, plunging a large area around the White Jade Peak into complete darkness.

What was even more astonishing was that the dragon had a very strange head with a human face that was countless times more massive than a normal human face.

The expressions of all of the dozens of deputy dao lords situated several thousand kilometers to the west immediately changed drastically upon seeing this.

Among them, even those who had stayed in the Blaze Dragon Dao for the shortest amount of time had already been here for over 100,000 years, yet they had never seen or even heard of such a formidable beast lurking under the White Jade Peak.

"Could this be... the Blaze Dragon?" Xiong Shan murmured with an astonished expression.

"Could it be that this is what's been making all those strange sounds under the mountain range?" another deputy dao lord speculated with a bewildered expression.

"That's most likely the case. Many years ago, while venturing deep into the underground fire veins to collect Crimson Fire Essence, I detected an indistinct aura. At the time, I paid it no heed, but thinking back, that aura was virtually identical to the aura of this beast," a thin elderly man said with an enlightened expression.

"But why does its face look like that?"

"Isn't that Dao Lord Baili's face?"

On the Origin View Peak.

Han Li was looking at the enormous beast from afar, and the snippets of information that he had previously read about the primordial beast, the Blaze Dragon, quickly flashed through his mind. Indeed, its physical description was almost a complete match with this gargantuan beast with only some minute differences.

For example, it was described that the face of the Blaze Dragon was only very slightly resembling that of a human, but this Blaze Dragon's face bore a striking resemblance to Baili Yan.

Could it be that this is Dao Lord Baili's true body?

As soon as this thought crossed Han Li's mind, it was immediately dismissed.

This strange Blaze Dragon's eyes were filled entirely with scorching black flames and had no pupils, clearly indicating that it wasn't an intelligent creature. Even if it did have something to do with Baili Yan, it was much more likely that it was an avatar of his.

Furthermore, for some reason, as soon as the giant Blaze Dragon appeared, Han Li immediately felt a strong sense of aversion to it deep within his soul.

He discovered that the black flames burning all over the Blaze Dragon's body seemed to have been imbued with extremely formidable baleful qi, more formidable than any that he had ever felt before.

Meanwhile, on the giant blue flower hovering in the sky several thousand kilometers to the north of the White Jade Peak.

The initially calm and unperturbed Vast Flow Palace cultivators now all had astonished looks on their faces, and they were too stunned to speak.

At this point, Luo Qinghai had also stood up from his golden throne, and he was staring intently at the enormous Blaze Dragon.

Only after a long while did he return to his senses before murmuring to himself, "I had thought that you had only gone into seclusion to delay the onset of the five decays, but never had I anticipated that you would've already overcome the five decays by forging such a unique path. How unfortunate... If you had been given just 10,000 more years, the Northern Glacial Immortal Region would've been no match for you."

The effeminate man behind him approached him with an uncertain expression, then asked, "Master, what should we do now?"

"All of you, watch carefully! This is an extremely rare opportunity. Even if the Immortal Palace manages to get what they want, it'll almost certainly be at an extremely heavy cost," Luo Qinghai chuckled as he sat back down onto his throne and continued to observe the battle.

Baili Yan's body was enveloped in a layer of rainbow light, and he was holding a crimson immortal sword in one hand and an octagonal fiery red mirror in the other, standing several thousand feet away from Xiao Jinhan.

The entire area within a radius of 20,000 to 30,000 feet around him was enveloped within a near-transparent hemispherical light barrier with white light surging over its surface, and it was also riddled with countless snowflake patterns that were giving off cold glacial qi.

There were around a dozen Immortal Palace cultivators, including Xue Ying, distributed around the light barrier, and each of them was holding a white jade tablet that they were injecting their immortal spiritual power into.

Over half of them were Golden Immortal cultivators, while the rest were all late-True Immortal cultivators, and it appeared that they had trapped Baili Yan here, but they hadn't actually managed to gain the upper hand at all.

"Baili Yan, it's no wonder the Heavenly Court views you as such a potent threat, you are indeed a remarkable man," Xiao Jinhan said as he cast his gaze toward the Blaze Dragon in the distance.

"There are no unremarkable people among those who have reached our cultivation base," Baili Yan replied with a cold smile.

"In any case, we made the right decision to come here today. Otherwise, if we had given you 10,000 more years, you would've been the one actively knocking on our Northern Glacial Immortal Region's door, and we would've certainly been no match for the High Zenith Stage Jade Immortal that you would've become," Xiao Jinhan

"What makes you think you're a match for me now?" Baili Yan sneered.

……

In the sky above the White Jade Peak.

An earth-shattering roar rang out as the Blaze Dragon twisted its body from side to side, rising up toward Baili Yan.

Right as it was about to pass through the clouds up above, the severely ravaged ground down below abruptly shuddered, following which an enormous array projection appeared before releasing a vast expanse of dazzling golden radiance.

Eight huge golden pillars, each with a golden dragon coiled around them, rose up around the Blaze Dragon, swelling to over 100,000 feet tall in the span of just a few seconds, and the pillars were riddled with runes that were giving off more golden light.

Atop each pillar stood a Immortal Palace Golden Palace, all of whom were chanting incantations while making hand seals to activate the array.

One of the Golden Immortals standing on the pillars was none other than Gu Jie, and at the same time, the woman in the pink palace dress suddenly appeared in the sky above the Blaze Dragon with her white guqin hovering in front of her.

She stroked her fingers over the strings of the instrument, and a burst of peculiar music suddenly rang out from the eight giant golden pillars, following which the eight massive golden dragons coiled around the pillars abruptly sprang to life.

A collective draconic roar rang out as the eight golden dragons pounced out of the giant pillars, plunging headfirst into the black flames to tear at the Blaze Dragon with their claws and fangs.

Within the black flames, the eight golden dragons wrapped themselves around the Blaze Dragon before opening their cavernous mouths and sinking their fangs into the Blaze Dragon's body, only to find that they were unable to even bite through its scales.

The Blaze Dragon let loose a thunderous roar as it began to thrash around violently in an attempt to shake off the golden dragons.

As a result, it was constantly crashing into the giant golden pillars, causing a massive commotion.

However, the golden pillars remained completely unmoved, and it was as if they were a permanent fixture between heaven and earth.

This array was even more formidable than the Golden Scale Dragon Locking Array, and the Blaze Dragon was unable to break free.

All of a sudden, Lu Yue rose up into the sky as a streak of dazzling golden light, then raised a hand to summon a black ox horn bow.

The bow's design was very simplistic, as if it had been crafted without much care, and there weren't any adornments or even runes on its surface. All it did was give off a faint black sheen, and it had a very antiquated appearance.

Lu Yue cast his gaze toward the thrashing Blaze Dragon, then lunged forward and slowly drew the bow back.

As he did so, the muscles on his arms bulged and trembled incessantly, indicating that he was experiencing a great deal of strain.

The bow was slowly being drawn back, and as the bowstring came into contact with his chin, wisps of silver light began to appear between his hands, then connected together to form a shimmering silver arrow that was aimed straight at the Blaze Dragon's head.

Lu Yue's fingers had been sliced open by the bowstring, and blood was pouring out of the gashes, only to be absorbed by the bow. However, his aura was rather restrained, and he remained completely still, seemingly in no hurry to fire the arrow.

At the same time, a tiny speck of silver light appeared on the tip of the arrow, and initially, it was rather indistinct, but it was becoming more and more substantial and giving off bursts of law fluctuations.

The Blaze Dragon's struggles continued to prove futile, and it was becoming more and more furious by the second.

It twisted around and opened its cavernous mouth to blast forth a stream of ferocious black flames to incinerate, and compared with the black flames on its body, the fire being blasted out of its mouth was even hotter and imbued with more fierce baleful qi.

In mere moments, the eight golden dragons began to wilt under the intense heat, looking as if they were about to melt away.

The eight Golden Immortals standing atop the golden pillars were also feeling the heat, and their blood circulation had sped up by severalfold, while a sense of agitation welled up in their hearts, as if they were being roasted in a fiery pit.

Finally, one of the early-Golden Immortal cultivators was unable to withstand the heat any longer, and he involuntarily threw up a mouthful of blood.

Immediately thereafter, Gu Jie also threw up a mouthful of blood, having already sustained severe injuries from the blow dealt upon him by the Crimson Luan sword.

As a result, the entire array had been destabilized, and it looked as if it could collapse at any moment.

Right as the surrounding golden pillars were about to be toppled, Dong Jie suddenly appeared in the sky in a flash, and through the use of some type of secret technique, he had expanded his own body to over 10,000 feet tall.

He was holding an enormous ax that he swung up into the sky with both hands while leaping into the air, then swung his ax down toward the Blaze Dragon's neck.

Dazzling black light erupted out of the runes engraved onto the blade of the ax, and it began to release formidable tearing force that caused the surrounding space to warp and twist.

Right as the ax was about to tear through the black flames and strike the Blaze Dragon's neck, a burst of crimson light suddenly shot out of the top of the Blaze Dragon's head like lightning, then rapidly expanded while flying through the air, transforming into a giant crimson sword that was several thousand feet in length before striking the sharp edge of the ax.
