Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled! 21 Chapter 21: Duan Li's Bizarre Trial! 3

Three towering black cannons with its ends shaped like the mouth of a fierce earth dragon, were fitted atop the wall facing the open snow field. These cannons were called the dragon's angry bellow as it could spit out powerful flame bombs according to the quant.i.ty of spirit stones it absorbed. Various runic symbols were carved onto its body making it seem ancient and powerful.

Right now, for the sake of this upcoming battle, the t.i.tan's race had decided to emptied out their whole treasuries of spirit stones. Even the most influential families had donated everything they got along with everyone here as well.

To them for now, these spirit stones were akin to bad luck. If anyone were to hold onto them, they would be drawing death upon themselves.

"Supreme General! We have enough spirit stones here for several rapid shots hahahahahaha!" said one of the lieutenants.

"Even mountains will be blasted to dust with such firepower! Gahahahahaha!" laughed the rest of the soldiers.

Everyone was quite confident right now. Even if compared to the other kingdoms and empires in the past, they would undoubtedly be the top three with the most riches.

"Quiet idiots! Prepare yourself for battle!" reprimanded Kong Donghai with a smug grin.

"Yes supreme general!" replied the soldiers and lieutenants in unison as they sat down cross-legged to focus their minds into entering the peak state before the final battle.

...

BOOM!

BOOM!

Duan Li whom was floating in mid-air absorbing spiritual Qi like swallowing rivers slowly opened his closed eyes.

"They have come.." he said slowly.

Kong Donghai immediately turned towards his army.

"Charge the cannons!" he shouted out.

Everyone began to pour countless spirit stones into the cannon while putting it on standby.

"Remember our battle strategy!" said Duan Li with an authoritative air.

In the Tian continent, the supreme decree from a first rank t.i.tled Knights are absolute. Before his power, all other supreme generals are but his soldiers to commmand!

"Sir, yes sir!!" shouted the rest of them including Kong Donghai.

According to the battle strategy that they have discussed shortly after the arrival of Duan Li, there are eight hermit kings left to be slained.

Their strategy was, Duan Li would split himself into three, where the other two of his clones would have 20 percent of his powers each.

This is because, based on his memories of the previous encounter with the Crastesauros, 40 percent of his power would be enough to delay them.

Therefore, each of his clones would delay one of the hermit kings, while the three cannons would delay another three of the hermit kings. In total, during the fight, they will be delaying five hermit kings!

The t.i.tan race have two supreme generals, the left and right, namely Kong Donghai and Xang Lubai. Each of them will lead a subjugation squad to face one hermit king, consisting of several generals and slay them if possible.

Meanwhile, Duan Li's role is to slay them one at a time with overwhelming power. He might also need time to recuperate his spiritual Qi, thus several multi-layered spiritual Qi gathering formation of tier-6 was set up for him in advance.

Within that snowy blizzard far in the distance, eight colossal shape of different sizes towering the skies could be seen vividly approaching.

Thump! Thump!

The heartbeats of the soldiers were thumping furiously at the sight of those colossal shadows that grew bigger as they neared.

The t.i.tans have always been proud of their huge stature and viewed the other puny races as inferior to them. But right now, they were feeling extremely small compared to these eight abominations.

BOOM!

BOOM!

The footsteps from these hermit kings shook the earth and crumbles the mountain with each step they took. No matter any terrain that it walked on, everything became flattened as soon as they stepped on it.

Even the thick ice melted under the extreme pressure from their bottomless weight.

Gradually, these vivid figures became clearer.

They strolled casually as they trampled everything in their path.

"Are we.. gonna fight those?"

"Such crushing pressure.. I doubt I would survive this battle.. hahaha.. "

"D-d.a.m.n it! My legs can't stop shaking!"

Some of the soldiers are beginning to lose their wits and the overall morale quickly plummeted.

Who wouldn't be terrified looking at the towering figures where some of them had reached almost 10 kilometers in height?

Who wouldn't be hopeless when looking at that ma.s.sive sizes of which one of them had reached the width of almost 30 kilometers in size?

Who wouldn't shiver in fear when feeling that terrible pressure they emit which could crush bones into dust and meat into paste?

At this moment, Duan Li decided to act as his aura rose to a peak and his hands moved to perform a series of complex incantation gestures.

'Three thousand Great Spell: Wills of unrelenting Dao Kings!'

'Three thousand Great Spell: Might of the supreme Overlord Saints!'

'Three thousand Great Spell: Spiritual body of the Heavenly stars!'

...

Duan Li casted these three spell buffs to every single soldiers on the battlefield. Their aura rose to extreme heights as their anxiety, nervousness and fear disappeared without a trace.

"M-my.. realm had advanced significantly.. to the pinnacle!" said a soldier with a gold core realm.

"Me too! And my strength.. I think it just increased by a few dozen folds!"

"N-not only that, I can feel that my stamina seemed to be bottomless! I could fight for days without exhaustion like this!"

"Hey! Did you guys feel these sensation? I could absorb the surrounding spiritual Qi rapidly as I breath!"

Numerous other people made similar statement as their morale swiftly returned to its peak and their faces shone with indomitable spirit and confidence!

Seeing this phenomena, Kong Donghai was thoroughly excited as even his battle prowess had multiplied by a staggering hundred folds! Even his heart stood like a steel wall, as if the towering pressure of the coming battle is of no threat to them!

That is a true supreme general!

That is true power!

"To be able to use three high tier of the three thousand Great Spells at once.. there is no one in the Tian continent who could be his match anymore!" said Xang Lubai, the Supreme General of the Right of the t.i.tan race.

Kong Donghai nodded in agreement.

He was about to speak something when Duan Li chanted another spell.

'Three thousand Great Spells: Armors of Rognak!'

Shinggg!!

The soldiers were startled as some of them were suddenly surrounded in white light.

When the light disappeared, these soldiers found themselves to be equiped with black gold armors!

"Armors of Rognak!" said Kong Donghai startled.

These are magical armors made to withstand extreme beatings and damage!

To think that he had used such a powerful spell on normal foot soldiers and by the looks of it, over a thousand of them as well!

"How much spiritual Qi does he actually holds?!" exclaimed Xang Lubai in astonishment.

"Those whom I have equipped with the armors of Rognak, you will stand to guard the three cannons with your life!!" shouted Duan Li.

"SIR! YES SIR!!" replied the agitated crowd in unison.

Their faces have now become extremely savage and brutal, their aura berserk on a rampage! Such that if Duan Li were to order them to charge towards those eight abominations right now, they would not hesitate in the slightest even at the cost of their lives!

The eight abominations?

Hah! So what?!

Come here! Your daddy will give you a beating!

Looking at everyone's faces and their morales surpa.s.sing their peaks, Duan Li nodded in satisfaction.

"Time to buff up myself.." said Duan Li as he performed yet another spell incantation gestures.

'One hundred Legendary Spells: Hexagram of the Celestial Demise!'

'One hundred Legendary Spells: Tetra unsealing of the Nine Voids!'

BRRRRR!!

Countless round-shape black material that seemed to be the most hardest substance in the world materialize as if coming from a deep dark abyss and floated around him, each with glowing purple runic formations inscribed with an ancient primal language that seethed out extremely hair-raising powers!

Black Tendrils flowed out from each of them as they molded to become a long sharp spear from end to end. Duan Li grabbed it casually.

"The Dark spear!" said Kong Donghai as he swallowed his saliva.

He recognize that black spear on Duan Li's hands that seemed to be made from nothing but the aura of death!

"An intangible material made up from the countless death aura of the previous generations that filled the realm of the outworld fiend.."

A single wound that was caused by it would immediately suck the life of someone dry in a single breath!

"The last time he used it was on that vile criminal.. "

Duan Li raised his palm upwards to the sky and chanted;

'Ten Epic Spells: Blessings of the Yggdrasil!'

Wonggggg!

The sky split as a hole was made, by which a golden light shone downwards from the sky with mystical golden hums as it flashed on Duan Li.

Boom!

His entire being was filled with a gushing golden aura that was reminiscent of a deity!

His hair had also turned gold and extended long to his backs.

Streaks of lightning flashes around him every so often and four white wings made up from angelic feathers sprouted from his backs.

Right now, he became the center of focus for everyone. Even the eight abominations stopped in their tracks for a moment before continuing on when they felt his power rising beyond his previous limits.

He stood in the air majestically.

"It seems.. we might have a little hope.. " said Kong Donghai as he clenched his fists in agitation.

BOOM!

BOOM!

The abominations are finally close enough for the battle to start.

Duan Li raised his right arm as he moved to point a single finger forwards.

"One finger starlight slash!"

A sharp beam of light was unleashed from his index finger as he swiped it from the left to right, up and down repeatedly like the conductor of an orchestra.

KABOOM!

BOOM!

Flashes of explosion reminiscent of multiple comets. .h.i.tting the continent surrounded the eight abominations.

BOOM!!

KABOOM!

The symphony of destruction!

...

After the smoke disappeared, two of the abominations were reduced to dust while one was heavily injured. The rest continued on trampling the lands as if nothing had happened.

Duan Li's previous majestic form slowly dissipated.

"Only about ten seconds.." he sighed disappointingly in his heart.

"Time for a switch." said Duan Li towards the two supreme generals Kong Donghai and Xang Lubai as he sat cross-legged on the spiritual Qi gathering formations to recuperate.

The both of them nodded as they exhaled and shouted to the soldiers;

"KILL THEM!!"

"YEAAAAAAHHH!!"

...

After a few hours of intense battle, they have finally won!

However, the cost was great..

Xang Lubai died along with 47 generals..

All three cannons were destroyed..

Countless soldiers were killed..

The walls of the t.i.tan race had been breached and a lot of civilians died..

80 percent of the t.i.tan's land had been reduced to ashes..

It would take decades for the t.i.tan race to be able to return to half of their former glory..

And perhaps a few centuries for them to return back to their peak strength..

Duan Li could only cast the blessings of Yggdrasil once to himself as it requires an abysmal amount of spiritual Qi and required one's aura to be at the extreme peak to succeed. As their battle does not allow him to have such a privillege, their losses escalated over time.

Even Kong Donghai had lost one arm and one leg in that battle and was currently laying on the ground undergoing emergency treatment. From his injuries, it doesn't seem like he will survive for long.

"Supreme general Duan Li.. we.. we.. did it.. " he said while coughing up blood.

Duan Li nodded with sad smiles.

Kong Donghai smiled as his breathing slowed and his lifeforce dimmed. He knew that he was going to die, but knowing that they have won the most difficult battle in the history of the Tian continent, it matters not to him.

After a while, he pa.s.sed away.

Duan Li looked at his surroundings and shook his head seeing their terrible state.

"All the abominations have been slained.. but the Ancient One had still yet to make a move.. and we are already.. " he sighed.

Suddenly a general that was laying on the ground while being treated yelled out.

"G-guys! Look at the sun!"

"Huh?"

"The sun?"

Everyone including Duan Li looked upwards and squinted their eyes.

!!!!

The..

Sun..

Is..

Moving.. ?

The sun that was familiar to everyone else that shone brightly every morning to mark a new day after a good night rest, suddenly felt so eery to them.

The sun was wriggling..

As if, uncoiling itself..

Duan Li and some others used spells to focused their eyesight to see clearly on the sun.

Thud!

He fell to the ground on his knees..

"How.. what.. is.. this..?"

"So this.. is.. the Ancient One?"

For the first time ever.. Duan Li felt despair in his heart.

What he had seen, is truly something impossible to fight against.. even with his means.

What use was all that power that he holds against this?

The sun that everyone knew..

Was actually..

An extremely colossal long dragon!

For all this while, it had coiled together and fallen asleep deep into a slumber, only to awake at the predestined times..

The end times..

Bang!

"ARGHHHH!!" shouted a general smashing his fist onto the ground creating a large dent in frustration.

He was feeling extremely indignant. All of the people he knew for years, had already died in this battle.

And finally when he thought that they have won, before even conducting proper burial ceremony, not to mention celebration, the sun had suddenly turned to become their main enemy?

Who could even fight against the sun that was infinitely bigger than the whole Tian continent?

Despair!!

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Everyone fell to the ground on their knees..

"Its all over.."

"D-d.a.m.n it all.."

...

ROARRRR!!

The roar of the sun dragon was the most terrifying that they have ever heard before in their whole life, akin to the bells, signifying one's death.

The sun dragon finally finished uncoiling its colossal body as it wriggled on the s.p.a.ce.

Turning to look towards the Tian continent, its colossal body jerked, before it flashed and rammed the Tian continent into ashes in an instant.

BOOM!!

...
