LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 226 Chapter 226: Empire 4

To enable Derik to master such a high-level path, Demos was forced to give up a large portion of his power, eventually dropping from the mid-grade of the demiG.o.d realm to the low grade of the demiG.o.d realm. This act alone showed how much the guardian spirit was investing in Derik! From the very beginning, it helped Derik master his first path even before he underwent refinement, it also helps him create his own lower grade domain, giving up another portion of its power and finally, it helped Derik master a path which only DemiG.o.ds are given access to at the low grade of the gold realm. This continuous display of selfless acts from Demos just to make sure he grows almost moved Derik to tears, to the point that he swore he would fulfill every wish of the guardian spirit and help it return to its peak state.

The realm lord path is a general path that everyone in the demiG.o.d realm must master. At the demiG.o.d realm, one can create his domain, a small dimension which corresponds with the casters element and powers, creating a makeshift world within them which possesses the full destructive capabilities of the domain. Only after surpa.s.sing the demiG.o.d realm, moving all the way to the G.o.d realm can someone convert their domain's into an actual realm. To get someone to enter your domain, one must trick them into stepping through the domain pa.s.sageway which only the creator of the domain can create.

The domain is considered small and lacks intelligent life forms in it. The user can not produce life in it and can only rely on the sheer destructive power of his or her element completely suppress an unlucky foe. But this is already considered a huge advantage

Unlike a domain which stored within one's self and can only be accessed through the domains pa.s.sage, a realm can fuse with the environment, easily trapping anyone within it easily. At this level, numerous life forms based on the element can be created and even called out of the realm to fight for them. The realm is boundless and has no exit unless the creator decides to let a person out.

Being able to utilize a domain at this level is a big advantage for the war to come. Since the creator will be occupied by worthy opponents, alongside its most trusted guardian spirits and the cosmic spirits, the inhabitants of this planet will have to defend itself the creations of the other beings at a similar realm as the creator. For that reason alone, Demos concluded its necessary for it to aid Derik as much as possible and give him an advantage against his foes at a similar rank. By the way, it can still acquire the lost power it lost if given enough time to cultivate in the underworld.

With the realm lord path, Derik was ahead of every other being in this continent. It was safe to say he is the most powerful being here.

Crank!

Crank!!

Crank!!!

Derik's movements looked extremely slow but in reality it was quite fast, sounds of clashing chains echoed everywhere as the s.p.a.ce in front of him began to tear! Numerous rusted black chains that exuded a large amount of death aura appeared in the same circular form and s.p.a.ce within was covered in darkish purple light! All this was done even before the blazing blue fire dragon could reach him.

"Domain of the dead… Open…" Derik muttered lightly and he gently pushed the ma.s.sive circle forward!

Wooooosh!

The speed of the domain gate was faster than what everyone expected, the center in between the black chains shot out a purple light which dragged the fire dragon inside in just an instant. Even though the dragon was several times bigger than the domain gate it just vanished into it!

"What kind of sorcery is this!" the earth dragon cried out.

The earth dragon was terrified by what it just witnessed so it retreated hastily, planning to escape.

"Trying to leave? Haha… Since you are already here, don't bother about leaving this place!" Derik sneered and his body shot forward, turning into a darkish purple light as he chased after the earth dragon with the domain gate following behind tightly.

Wooooosh!

Since the earth dragon was in its crystal form, its speed was reasonably slower than even that of the fire dragon, it didn't take long before Derik caught up to it.

His figure appeared right in front of the beast and his death aura surged forward like a tidal wave, threatening to crush the beast under it! Seeing this the earth dragon hastily retreated in a bid to escape Derik's attack, forgetting the domain gate behind! 

The moment it was close enough, the domain entrance let out a ray of darkish purple light which completely consumed the earth dragon and it was gone.

Wooooooossh!

Derik's figure appeared right in front of Cyrus and the rest with the domain entrance following behind tightly. His eyes were void of any form of light, only darkness! It was as if he was peeping into the domain, witnessing the actions of the dragons within his world. Seeing them struggle, a satisfied smile appeared on Derik's face.

"Wait for me here… This wont take long…" Derik said to the others casually and turned around, taking long strides towards the entrance.

"Wait! I want to see…" Kalos finally spoke up with blazing pa.s.sion in his eyes.

He is no beginner, he knew this ability is something that belongs to those at a higher realm! Those at the DemiG.o.d realm, a realm which he tried to reach. Even if Derik's version is slightly inferior, he still wants to see and know what it looks like.

The others also wanted to see what a domain looks like. As gold realm masters, they have only heard of it but have never witnessed it! They all wanted to know what the next level for them will look like.

"Then, come with me… Stay close" Derik said with a smile.

..............................................

It was dark in this world, with the red moon partially hidden by black clouds as the only source of life in this dark world. The air was heavy and a thick nauseating odor filled everywhere. The land was barren and there were numerous cracks on the land and many places in this world were covered by shadows.

The team appeared behind Derik, levitating under the influence of his power. The moment they arrived here it felt as if they lost all their strength and couldn't even fly! If they wished to push themselves off the ground, they will require four times the normal power they normally expend for this task, the level of suppression in this world greatly surpa.s.sed their expectations.

Roar!

Roar!!

Not too far below them was the earth and fire dragon trying to fight against the thousands of undead surrounding them! This unholy land has become a resting place for all of Derik's undead forces, the shadow lurker included. Its body was over twenty meters long and its skin was covered with thick purple scales. Its claws were over two to three meters long and it had a pair of green eyes. Its snake-like body wiggled from time to time as it circled around the two dragons while staring at them coldly. After it broke into the gold realm level, alongside Derik, the shadow lurker was moved to this realm, the same as all the undead in Derik's army. Since the condition here is similar to that of the underworld, the shadow lurker had no reason to leave, it can stay here and feed off the death aura to improve its strength.

Since it was at the same level as this beasts it was one of the commanders of Derik's undead force, alongside Kalos and Aldora. This majestic beast controlled the hundreds of thousands of magic beasts under Derik's undead curse. It was yet to be revealed to the world and only Kalos and Aldora knew about this beast, even they were slightly scared of it.

Seeing Derik arrive, the shadow lurker bowed respectfully and retreated into the shadows alongside other undead creatures around, giving Derik enough room to deal with this beast.

"What is this!" The fire dragon roared furiously. It's raging blue flames was being suppressed by an unknown force in this realm, it felt extremely agitated by this and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

"And who said you are allowed to speak?" Derik said with a vicious smile on his handsome face.

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

Numerous black chains smeared in death aura shot out of the ground beneath these dragons and before they could react, their legs, hands, and necks were bounded by these chains. The dragons gritted their teeth as the felt as if their skins were melting. Black fumes raced into their lungs and these ancient beasts felt their insides corroding, they were choking.

Derik waved his hands carelessly as he twirled around in mid-air. The ground beneath these dragons began to shake and it shattered the next moment. Another set of black chains shot out of the ground, wrapping around the earth and fire dragon who kept struggling relentlessly. These dragons were slowly been pulled into the ground and Derik's figure appeared above them.

"Quit struggling and your sufferings will end quickly… You are only prolonging the inevitable…" He spoke calmly with a casual smile on his face.

"YOU DARE! DIE!!!" The fire dragon roared and spat out a mouthful of blue flames

Fire breathe!

Poison breathe!!

Both dragons spat out their fire and poison but before it could reach, it vanished. The power behind these techniques had weakened and the strength of these dragons was waining due to the effects of the death aura and the backlash of using their second form. It could not reach Derik.

"Hahaha… In this domain… I am the sole G.o.d!" Derik laughed
