âPick your targets. Charge!â
Having long been ready, Murong Lie and the rest shouted with zeal, each after one dragon expert. The rest followed after them.
The elders gasped, âYou didnât explain to them who we are?â
âI did!â
The muscled guy shook his head, âItâs because of it they donât fear us, wanting to fight us instead.â
âFor crying out loud, what is wrong with them? These humans donât even respect us. Weâll have to cull a hundred and make an example of them!â
Elder Bai Ling roared, letting his hand drop at the incoming Luo tide, with him taking the lead to charge, âAttack! These humans mustâve forgotten our might after so many years. Let them suffer for it!â
Draconic roars littered the sky as the two dozen dragon experts followed him into battle.
Boom!
The savage shockwave shook the space as it spread from the impact. The two dozen dragons were up against hundreds of Luo clansmen, with even the elders facing three or four Sword Kings.
This showed a clear contrast between the two races, with dragons tens of times stronger.
The shock, however, came for those prideful dragons.
[Divine Dragon Sweep!]
Elder Bai Long unleashed a mighty palm, an image of a hundreds of meters long draconic tail lashing out appeared behind, leaving spatial distortions in its wake.
Under such power, the landscape would change for thousands of miles, with the Luo clanâs town flattened.
Decimating Lash!
Vaulting Dragon Cleave!
Sundering Lightning!
Murong Lie, Danqing Shen and Baili Yulei intervened with their Imperial Mark made of their sword arts. The dragon tail broke down into nothing.
Elder Bai Long shuddered back five steps and looked back in shock.
[It canât be! Three peak human Emperors blocked my attack. Theyâre not your normal Emperors for sure!]
Elder Bai Long was grave, now understanding why these folk were so antagonistic. They were freaks!
The other side faltered five steps as well, looking at the elder with thrill and astonishment.
[Thatâs a dragon Saint for you.]
They could only fight him together. It didnât matter though, for in a spar, one had to go all out to make the most of it.
This was the expert that could test their limits and unearth their potential for more.
The trioâs eyes burned with battlelust.
Hei Long and Chi Long met their own match, looking just as dark. As for the other twenty plus dragon Emperors, they had to contend with ânormalâ Luo clan Emperors, tens of them each.
As the ardent fight went on, the proud dragons realized these humans werenât normal. They doubted they could even beat them at this point.
The muscled guy who started it all sighed.
[What have we gotten ourselves into? This isnât just some normal human gathering. Their power is beyond human, close to that of spiritual beasts.]
The three elders were beyond mere dragon Emperors, yet three to four humans could hold them back while other dragons couldnâtâ¦
âAncient experts!â
Elder Bai Long fought with Danqing Shenâs group a few more times and turned grave.
Hei Long and Chi Long nodded. The rest were dumbstruck, keeping away from their battles for now.
The muscled guy with ruined arms flashed to the elderâs side and asked, âElder Bai Long, what is this about ancient experts?â
âIn ancient times there were humans that could fight sacred beasts and dragons. Among them were the ten ancient Sovereigns, who could surpass even the five sacred beasts.â
Bai Long spoke, âAll the cultivators under the ten Sovereigns had the power to fight us dragons. But after the bloody war, many perished. The strength of spiritual beasts and dragons is innate, we hadnât changed, while humans lost their roots. Thatâs why humans today are weaker than spiritual beasts. Even if you take the strongest and loftiest of the Seven Sacred Mountains, they still canâtâ¦â
Hei Long said, âThey remind us of the fights with the ancient humans. Itâll be hard to beat them if we keep holding back. Dragons, assume your true form! Weâre going all out!â
[Dragon form?]
The dragons gasped.
That was their true nature, meaning their power would be on another level.
They were strong to begin with in human form, handling other equal stage human cultivators with relative ease. They only went full dragon when they had no choice, uncaring of the shame of having their bodies harmed. They were just too prideful to admit that the weak humans were worthy of seeing their true form.
Since antiquity, around half a million years ago, the last time this happened was when the Seven Sacred Mountains came charging in. Now it was going to happen again today, when they werenât even pushed back?
[Isnât this overestimating them a little?]
âElder Hei Longâ¦â
âI donât want to hear it. Since they have ancient expert strength, weâll fight them for real!â
Hei Longâs eyes were firm, turning to the other elders, âThey say ancient dragons fought with humans using their true bodies. What do you think?â
The others nodded, âAgreed!â
The elders jumped out of the fight and into the skies. With a roar, their bodies glowed white and soon revealed themselves as three huge red, white, and black dragons with unspeakable aura. Their tail swish sent cutting winds.
Under the fierce winds, the Luo clan town threatened to crumble.
âTheyâre now tens of times stronger!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Danqing Shen gasped in shock, âFellas, this looks bad. Itâs no longer a spar now. Three of us arenât enough to take even one.â
Murong Lieâs face twitched, sweat trickling down his brow, âYeah, dragon Saints are no pushovers. We have to stop them somehow before they ruin the town. We just got a foothold on Sacred Domain but now itâs about to be destroyed.â
They all gave grave nods.
âYou should be proud of forcing us into our true form, Luo clan, but now itâs over!â
The wounded muscled guy had a sinister grin of disdain, âWe once faced a thousand Saints with a hundred true dragon Saints, destroying a mountain. While only the elders remain, with the two dozen dragon Emperors, youâre finished. A true dragon Emperor is enough to face your Saints, ha-ha-haâ¦â
The muscled guy roared and turned into a hundred meter long earth dragon. His two claws were wounded, but was still more than enough to handle the normal Luo Emperors.
Following his action, the rest of the dragons changed as well.
The sky was now filled with huge dragons, ready to unleash destruction upon the world.
Looking at the incoming apocalypse, the peopleâs hearts shank, their brows locked, and their breathing heavy.
âLeave the dragon Saints to me. Former Sword Kings like you should have no trouble dealing with the dragon Emperors, or thereâd be no point in you being here.â
A lazy voice sounded as slow steps approachedâ¦
