The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1756 - Darkness Bell



Chapter 1756: Darkness Bell

“Ding ding ding, ding ding ding!” The sound of a ringing bell made the raging fire in Guo Zhenfeng’s chest dissipate a little. He was in a trance momentarily.

A silhouette bore out from the numerous abyssal creatures at this very moment. She arrived before him at an unusually high speed and pressed her palm onto his chest.

Guo Zhenfeng was a valiant general on the battlefield and his Blight Mountain Axe was ever triumphant. His fighting abilities were considered powerful in the soul masters’ world, yet he was more skilled in fighting with his troops than in a complicated one-on-one soul master’s battle.

His battle armor, black as ink, had emerged to block the opponent’s attack a moment before the opponent’s palm contacted his chest.

Guo Zhenfeng felt his chest shake when a gush of icy cold aura surged into his chest. The black halo underneath his feet suddenly exploded and transformed into a violent airwave which blew the opponent away. He fell back swiftly at the same time.

In an area not far away, he saw vividly a young maiden who was less than twenty years old with a sweet smile on her face. He was absolutely sure that this maiden was a human.

Yet, the surrounding abyssal creatures were completely oblivious of her presence. It was quite ghastly to see such an exquisite-looking girl with a sweet smile in the midst of numerous ferocious-looking abyssal creatures.

A gigantic bell emerged behind her. It swayed ever so gently and gave out a crisp ‘ding’ sound.

The feeling of being in a trance appeared once again. The surprised yet furious Guo Zhenfeng said, “The Holy Spirit Cult! Are these creatures related to you?” How could he not figure out by now that the young maiden before him was a powerhouse in the Holy Spirit Cult?

The person who appeared before him was none other than one of the four great heavenly kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Darkness Bell. She had a history of frequently bumping into Tang Wulin too.

“Hehe. That’s right. Isn’t it fun? Stop resisting, it’s useless. The abyssal legion has just begun. Are you surprised? Are you pleased?”

As she was speaking, the Darkness Bell pointed her right hand at Guo Zhenfeng. The gigantic bell behind her spun at high speed and flew toward him at once.

Guo Zhenfeng was quite experienced in real battles. He knew very well that he should not be caught wrong-footed in the opponent’s attack now, otherwise, chances were he would not be able to break free anymore. He could already see a few Ba Ans gathering toward him. They were swaying in tandem as they approached him.

He had figured out by now that the great catastrophe this time was a result of the Holy Spirit Cult’s prolonged dormancy. It also explained why these people had been lying low for such a long time. They were bringing over these numerous terrifying creatures.

The Blight Mountain Axe in Guo Zhenfeng’s hand became illuminated with an incandescent glow. It was raised. Next, it made a slow, cutting motion toward the front.

When he made the move, he suddenly turned solemn. The seventh and ninth soul ring around his body glowed brightly.

Starting at his chest, his battle armor emitted a vivid, incandescent color which fused with the Blight Mountain Axe. When the terrifying energy bloomed outward, it made a person feel like the entire world was about to collapse.

The Darkness Bell’s gaze revealed a look of astonishment. The shooting giant bell was retracted immediately. Her silhouette flashed once, and she bored into the bell and vanished without a trace.

Meanwhile, a stream of incandescent radiance appeared on the entire battlefield akin to a rainbow bridge.

It was over thirty meters in width when viewed from the front. All the abyssal creatures were swept away by the radiance. Even more shocking, the incandescent light bridge slammed directly into the mountain peak which was dominated by the opponent.

A ray of white light swept past and appeared in the center of the mountain peak instantly. Soon after, a powerful, horrifying explosion was heard. The mountain peak over hundreds of meters in height suddenly turned into pebbles which rained down from the sky to strike a large number of abyssal creatures.

The mountain peak which was the military outpost earlier had been taken over by the abyssal creatures to shield themselves. At this critical juncture, it was broken by Guo Zhenfeng’s strike such that there was nothing to stop his troops anymore.

This was his real goal. He used a strike of his axe to push back the Darkness Bell, then cut through the mountain to break the shield. His action had caused fear over the entire scene and inspired the Northern Army Corps to regain its fighting spirit once again.

Guo Zhenfeng immediately turned around and ran, after he had unleashed the strike without any hesitation.

A large number of four-clawed and six-clawed bats in the sky did not have the courage to charge forward anymore.

In the past, Tang Wulin had destroyed the ninety-seventh and seventy-sixth levels of the abyss and caused the two levels to collapse. The four-clawed and six-clawed bats which were from the ninety-seventh level were almost extinct as a result.

However, the abyssal Sage King rebuilt the two levels in order to maintain the stability of the entire abyss. It allowed the creatures to procreate, and returned the abyssal plane to its previous environment. It was an extremely exhausting process.

Hence, the four-clawed and six-clawed bats had the most enmity toward mankind. They immediately charged toward him upon seeing Guo Zhenfeng flying in the sky.

The Northern Army Corps’ artillery was firing incessantly in a criss-cross pattern to conceal Guo Zhenfeng. Intense collisions broke out in the sky at once.

“Are you trying to leave? Don’t, I don’t want you to go.” The playful voice was heard once again. Soon after, a crisp bell ring was heard.

Guo Zhenfeng’s chest tightened for a moment. He swung the Blight Mountain Axe in his hand which transformed into a large stretch of light shadows.

All of a sudden, a black mecha exploded with a loud boom on his left side.

“Ya Ze!” Guo Zhenfeng roared in agony. That was the battalion commander of his guard battalion! He had been working with Guo Zhenfeng for over ten years. In ten years, they were no longer just friends, but were as close as brothers!

How could Guo Zhenfeng remain calm when he witnessed the death of his good brother in the hands of the opponent?

“I won’t let even a single person walk away freely.”

“Ding ding ding, ding ding ding!”

Following the crisp sounds of ringing bells, the mechas which guarded Guo Zhenfeng began to sway with different intensities. It was the combination of a soundwave and a spiritual assault. The Northern Army Corps’ elite soldiers with their moderate cultivation were totally incapable of withstanding the assault by depending on their mechas.

“That’s a Hyper Douluo. There is at least one Hyper Douluo-ranked powerhouse in the opposing team.” Guo Zhenfeng concluded in his heart at once. At the same time, he felt dejected. He knew there was nothing he could do when he was confronted by such a powerhouse.

The Northern Army Corps was the weakest of all the eight great army corps. As a regimental commander, he had yet to achieve Hyper Douluo rank.

Had it not been in a battlefield, he could utilize the soul weapons. Yet, how was he going to do that when he was in the midst of one?

It was apparent that the opponent had targeted him since earlier. Thus, the opponent had sent such a powerhouse to fight against him.

He had to go all out then!

Guo Zhenfeng clenched his teeth and unleashed his spiritual power in an attempt to look for the Darkness Bell.

However, the Darkness Bell was extremely cunning. She was constantly changing her position in the sky and hid herself behind the enormous mechas. In any case, she refused to show herself before Guo Zhenfeng.

Compared to Guo Zhenfeng, she had an even richer experience in actual battles. She knew how to handle the opponent. She would not give her opponent the slightest chance to attack her.

Guo Zhenfeng was most skilled in frontal attacks. So, why would she allow him to confront her from the front?

The Northern Army Corps’s defense line was losing its hold in the meantime.

Over thirty Ba Ans with enormous bodies formed a line. These creatures relied on their powerful defense to charge into the second mountain peak. It was similarly a strategic mountain peak. If it were invaded, then the Northern Army Corps’ defense would be caught in the quandary of having to fight the battle alone.

Four hours? Let alone four hours, they would not even be able to make it past the next hour!

The mechas were dropping in the surroundings. Guo Zhenfeng grieved as he watched his comrades die in battle one after another.

At last, he growled aloud without any care in the world. He stopped pursuing the Darkness Bell. Subsequently, he dropped down from the sky. He threw himself into an area with the densest population of abyssal creatures. If he had to die, he would take a number of abyssal creatures with him.
