Chapter 1528: Might of Dragon Crystal

"Watch out! Activate your invincibility skill!"

I raced forward, activated Profound Armor, and blocked in front of Luo River God of the Capital with my arms spread wide open. No matter how powerful the Dragon Cannon was, it shouldn’t be able to one-shot Gui Guzi or He Yi. This meant that the only one in danger of dying here was the divine mage.

Whoosh!

Not a moment too soon, the draconic energy struck us and engulfed us in smoke and flames. Terrible pain wracked our whole bodies as shocking damage numbers rose from our heads—

3,982,777!

9,018,238!

10,973,745!

MISS!

Luo River God of the Capital didn’t take any damage because I had blocked the attack for her. However, Gui Guzi and He Yi took around 10 million damage each, and even I with Profound Armor activated still took almost 4 million damage. The power of the Dragon Cannon was truly astonishing. If even we took this much damage, then the Dragonlight Cavalry could only fare worse.

"We need to go!"

I grabbed Luo River God of the Capital’s hand and took to the sky immediately. Gui Guzi and He Yi had leaped onto their giant dragons and followed behind me as well. Red Maple tried to give chase, but Gui Guzi easily pulled himself and He Yi out of danger with a Shennong Tastes Grass.

To deter Red Maple even more, I turned around and tossed the Xuanyuan Sword at him. It was a 100-yard super-long-range Coiling Dragon Revolution!

Swhoosh!

The spinning sword blew Red Maple’s parry apart and pierced his body for 2,937,374 damage, snuffing out his desire to chase us completely. If he caught up to us, he was the one who would be in danger of dying!

……

We flew all the way back to the canyon entrance where a fierce battle was still being waged.

Beiming Xue asked me from atop her Fire Phoenix, "How is the situation, big bro?"

I frowned deeply, "At least one of the Dragon Cannons has already been fully forged. We need to break through this defense line, extend our formation and destroy the Dragon Cannons in ten minutes tops. If the enemy manages to move even one Dragon Cannon to the canyon entrance before we break through, they can kill at least thousands of players in one blast!"

"Ah? You’re not joking, are you?"

"Absolutely not. Little Gui and Eve got hit by a Dragon Cannon just now, and they both lost around ten million HP. Everyone else including you are just going to be one-shot…"

Beiming Xue stuck out her tongue. "That’s scary…"

On the ground, Moonkiss frowned at me and said, "Why are you grabbing our boss's wrist, Lu Chen? Are you trying to kidnap her or take her back to your fort to be your mistress?"

I hurriedly let Luo River God of the Capital go and coughed. "Ahem, of course not!"

Luo River God of the Capital was in no mood to respond to jokes, however. "Let’s give the order to enter the canyon at all costs. Otherwise, it will truly be too late."

"Mn!"

I abruptly unsheathed the Xuanyuan Sword and pointed toward the ground, yelling, "All units, don’t conserve your cooldowns and attack the entrance with everything you've got! We must enter the canyon in five minutes at most!"

After I gave the order, I landed on the ground and executed Xuanyuan Art + Xuanyuan Slash combo that wiped out an entire area of enemies instantly. Now, bodies were littered everywhere on the grassy floor of the canyon entrance.

The rest of the divine players also descended from the sky and unleashed their skills. High Fighting Spirits and around 20,000 Dragonlight Cavalrymen seized the moment to brute-force their way into the canyon. It marked the official collapse of the Japanese server’s defense line and displayed the inferiority of their guilds!

I continued flying here and there and cutting down enemies wherever I went. Blood showered wherever my sword traveled, and super AoE combos such as Summon the Storm + Ancient Seal terrified the enemies even more. I didn’t hold back this time for the security of my server. Those Dragon Cannons must be destroyed, or they would give us hell during the upcoming Nation War for sure.

In the sky, Lin Yixin shouted, "Purple Marquis and 70k Snowy Cathaya members are attacking the place where the Dragon Cannons are forged, but I’m not sure that they can hold out for long! I’m going to head over and help them! Join us as soon as you can!"

I nodded. "Got it!"

She vanished into the horizon after receiving my response. A true guild leader wouldn’t abandon her players during key moments, and Lin Yixin knew that well.

……

The Dragonlight Cavalrymen chased after the enemy all the way to an open plain. High Fighting Spirits raced farther than all of them and unleashed his Xiezhi Howl like he had infinite MP. He was the living embodiment of a berserker-style warrior. Although Red Maple was stronger than High Fighting Spirits, the latter was supported by many Dragonlight Cavalrymen and Dragonlight Archers. As a result, Red Maple couldn’t snipe him lest he get stunned to death by the Dragonlight Archers under Beiming Xue and Nangong Lexi’s command.

Crack!

After cutting both a magic knight’s shield and body in half in one strike, I raised my weapon and ordered, "The Dragon Cannon is just in front of us! Form 3 to 5-man parties and spread out now! The Dragon Cannon’s AoE is extremely huge, so make sure you don’t all get caught by its blast!"

Chaos Moon nodded affirmatively. "Understood!"

Our mounts’ hooves shook the plains violently. At this point, God’s Domain’s Gold Cavalrymen were in full retreat. Many of their archers, mages and other classes were being chased as well.

"I see it!" Heaven’s Rain pointed her spear forward. "That red siege weapon over there is the legendary Dragon Cannon, am I right?"

"Mn!"

I nodded. "It fires special shells with draconic energy in them instead of conventional shells, so it’s like getting hit by the breath of Holy Giant Dragon or worse. Be careful. Again, split up into small parties, surround the cannon from all sides and take it out!"

……

Thud!

Red Maple landed gently atop the Dragon Cannon before looking down at the dozens of God’s Domain players operating the siege weapon. "Turn 3 degrees to the east and fire in 7 seconds!"

Creak…

The muzzle shifted slightly into position. A while later, it fired a huge fireball at a group of Chinese players!

Bloodcurdling screams filled the air. At least a hundred Dragonlight Cavalrymen had dissolved into ashes without any resistance!

"Continue to fire at will!" Red Maple ordered with grim eyes. "Are the other two Dragon Cannons ready yet? If they are, then have them attack the enemy together. Cyan Frost, rally our Gold Cavalrymen and form a defense line within 10 yards of our Dragon Cannons. Don’t let the enemy get closer no matter what!"

Cyan Frost nodded smilingly. "Understood…"

……

The enemy abruptly turned the Dragon Cannon toward me. Here it comes!

I flew close to the ground while raising the Dihai Shield in front of me. This time, I activated both Profound Armor and Fire God Barrier to greatly increase my Defense and resistances. I should be able to block the attack even if the Dragon Cannon’s attack was magic-type!

Red Maple flew toward me while ordering, "Archers and mages, focus fire Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand! Today is the day we kill China’s Little Heavenly King! Dragon Cannon, give me a triple shot! There is no need to conserve the Dragon Crystal’s energy!"

The cannon boomed three times in response, and in that moment it felt as if the air itself had become frozen by fear. The next moment, three gigantic fireballs struck my Dihai Shield in rapid succession and deleted a huge chunk of my HP. Not only that, the bloody energies pierced through me and one-shot the Dragonlight Cavalrymen at the back as well!

4,128,773!

4,019,234!

3,921,938!

Countless arrows and magic struck my Dihai Shield at the same time, but the amount of damage they dealt were negligible. The only person who could do any real damage to me was Red Maple, and right now he was swooping down on me and executing a triple-hit Fire God Flurry!

I met him head-on and executed Burning Blade Slash!

Bang bang bang!

Red Maple shuddered as he lost 40% of his HP. However, his Fire God Flurry failed to do good damage to me because my Defense and resistances had been buffed beyond imagination thanks to Profound Armor and Fire God Barrier! He was unable to pierce my Defense even though he was a divine expert!

122,376!

183,734!

212,376!

Red Maple’s pupils shrank. "Shit…"

I let out a chuckle and slammed right against his chest. Mad God Lunge!

Bang!

While he staggered backward and became stunned for a short time, I summoned the Xuanyuan Slash to delete him from the surface of the map!

Bitterness shone behind Red Maple’s eyes. Clearly, he didn’t want to die before his ambitions were still fulfilled!

……

Bang!

Fate was not on my side this time, however. Somehow, someone managed to stun me with a Shock Arrow and prevent my Xuanyuan Slash from activating!

After Red Maple awoke from his stun, he grinned savagely and activated his own Heavenly River Transformation. Was he trying to hit me with his Ancient Divine Skill? He was! The head of a ferocious tiger appeared above his blade before he stabbed me!

3,917,264!

Shit, that hurt. The effects of an Ancient Divine Skill took priority over any equipment effects, meaning that it was all-piercing as usual. My Profound Armor, Fire God Barrier and invincibility skill were basically non-existent before an Ancient Divine Skill.

"Die!"

Red Maple cackled as he raised his sword to unleash the final blow.

Swhoosh!

However, he was forced to turn midway and parry a dark green halberd that nearly caught him in the side. My rescuer was none other than Li Chengfeng!

"Fuck off!"

He executed Reverse Scale Slash that sent Red Maple stumbling to the back.

I hurriedly shouted, "Let’s take him out together, Chengfeng!"

"Of course! Watch out for his invincibility skill"

……

Swhoosh!

I dashed past Red Maple like lightning while wrapping his throat with a bloody chain. The Song of Freedom had successfully taken effect.

Red Maple hurriedly activated his invincibility skill, but it was too late.

"Ancient Divine Skill!"

Li Chengfeng and I uttered the words at nearly the same time as the Xuanyuan Slash and Crimson Firmament Slash passed through Red Maple’s body. Just like that, the Heaven’s Warrior finally let out a groan and dropped to his knees, dead. Not even a divine player could survive our combined attack!

Pop pop pop…

Not only did he lose 10 levels, his equipment drop rate had been increased by 300% as well. As a result, Red Maple had lost his helmet, legguards, wristguards, necklace and even his ring!

"You grab the loot, Chengfeng. I’m going to take out the Dragon Cannon!"

Without pause, I took to the sky and flew straight toward the cannon.

Li Chengfeng blanked out for a second before muttering to himself, "Well… looks like I’m the one who struck the jackpot this time…"
