Chapter 225: Chapter 225 Supreme Naga’s Second Transformation
Translator: 549690339
An indescribable force crashed down, the Black Dragon’s massive form fell like a meteor, its thick limbs pressing against the ground, and with a ‘boom’, a circle of invisible aura burst open, sweeping the rubble on the ground away. The ground within a fifty-meter diameter around the Black Dragon collapsed suddenly, and a cloud of dust billowed into the sky.
The outpost base fell silent, leaving only the heavy breathing of the people remaining.
After waiting for several seconds, Lin Xiao’s mind stirred, and the closest dozen Stone Golems and Armored Golems began to move slowly towards it with heavy steps.
“Good gracious, does this junior actually intend to capture a Dragon alive?” At this moment inside the Void Battleship, many upperclassmen gathered in front of the screen before Senior Kang, including the class head Jin Sisi and the counselor Zhu Hong. Eighteen pairs of eyes were all focused here, everyone full of anticipation, very curious as to whether Lin Xiao’s plan would succeed.
The dust in the collapsed pit slowly dissipated, and inside there was a silence without any sound, with only the heavy footsteps of the Golems around it.
But there wasn’t a trace of joy on Lin Xiao’s face, rather it was extremely solemn.
In his perception, although the pit was silent, there was a palpitation-inducing aura that was slowly gathering, as if something was building up power.
The first Stone Golem reached the edge of the pit, raised its axe in a chopping posture, and without hesitation, jumped down; with a ‘bang’, a crisp sound was heard, and sparks faintly flew.
The second Stone Golem also jumped down in the same posture.
The third one was an Armored Golem, wielding a steel battle axe and fiercely leapt down.
Just at that moment…
“Roar!”
A soul-shaking roar erupted from the pit, and in an instant, the dust within the pit shrank before violently exploding out. A black flame that could warp the very Void gushed out like a flood, submerging the surrounding Golems, and Lin Xiao instantly lost contact with these Golems.
The endless black flame, filled with intense corrosive power, erupted from the pit. A massive dragon silhouette pushed through the air currents, maintaining a wing-spread posture as if it was about to take flight but its wings rigid and motionless like a stone statue, it eerily rose into the air.
“Dragon Language Magic!”
Besides physical combat and Dragon Breath, Black Dragons did not possess such form and might; only the renowned Dragon Language Magic could result in such effects.
The Black Dragon, maintaining that state, ignored the Forbidden Sky Formation and rose quickly to an altitude of over a thousand meters, its pupils billowing black fumes slowly revolving, and though its dragon jaws did not move, one could hear the cadenced chant of a dragon’s hum.
This Black Dragon has quite pure bloodlines, able to consecutively invoke Dragon Language Magic!”
At this point, the upperclassmen were extremely curious, all wanting to know how Lin Xiao would handle the situation.
Right then, Lin Xiao quickly activated his Divine Extraordinary Ability- Prophetic Art LV3, foreseeing the threat of the Dragon Language Magic invoked by this Black Dragon called Nejelanmu.
In an instant, he saw countless images flash before his eyes, quickly, several pictures fixed in front of him. These were the different outcomes based on his possible reactions. He immediately saw one that was the best for him, reached out his hand for a snatch, quickly taking over the spiritual power connected to the ‘Gold’ from the remaining Wise Goblin Mages and transferring it to himself. Gathering the spiritual power of many Goblin Mages and activating a full ten points of Divinity transformed into Mana, he slowly extended his finger, warping the Void:

“Ordinance. High Immunity to Energy Damage….”
A layer of light membrane that immediately suggested toughness and solidity expanded from him, covering the entire base within it. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
“Ordinance. High Deviation Field….”
A layer of energy field not much different from the previous high-level energy protection barrier covered it next.
lhe so-called Ordinance Divine Technique is a special Divine Arts system that normal Priests cannot use. It is available only to the Chosen and powerful Priests of Rank 7 or above who are permitted by the Deity, or those Priests who are themselves of Legendary level, because this ability involves the utilization of rules; normal Priests cannot touch it without borrowing the power of a Deity.
Correspondingly, this Divine Arts system is extremely powerful, far more so than the average Divine Arts.
lhe Ordinance Divine Technique system does not have standard Divine Arts; its core lies in the use of rules, so it can be implemented freely, easily mimicking any Divine Arts or Spells, including rare Wizard and Druid Spellcaster Spells.
At the current stage, besides Lin Xiao himself, only Slarda among all the favored Ones was qualified to borrow his power to cast this Divine Arts system. “Ordinance. Group Vajra Invincible Body….”
Adding Devil Resistance, adding physical resistance, adding evasion-under the power of the Divinity and the spiritual power of All Favored Ones, the power of each Spell exceeded Rank 9 but had not reached the Legendary Spells level, situated between the two.
After he had enhanced himself with three spells, the Dragon’s curse that the Black Dragon in the sky had been chanting was completed. Its body swelled with dark flames, turning into a black sun, and streaks of slender black fumes separated and fell straight from the sky like rain, scattering towards the base.
Lin Xiao sensed an immense horror from the black smoke. The seemingly inconspicuous black fumes fell like fine rain on the High Immunity to Energy Damage Magic Barrier, creating ripples that made his heart leap.
Theoretically, the barrier could completely immunize against any non-Legendary spell, but it was violently trembling on an invisible level, sending waves that made his spirit jump.
With each ripple spreading, he could feel a layer of the energy-immune membrane being dissolved, and in less than five seconds, this High Immunity to Energy Damage Magic Barrier was perforated with countless small holes.
Then, they landed within the base.
from the perspective of the senior mages’ screens, the entire base seemed to be experiencing a downpour of black rain. The rain of black flames penetrated the membrane and spread on the ground with ripples of black, melting the stone and broken weapons upon contact and rapidly forming overlapping craters.
Falling on the Wise Goblins and Golems, many were deflected by a shimmer of light that hit the ground and corroded into large pits, but some could not be repelled by the High Deviation Fields and penetrated the fields to hit their bodies, causing the Golems to dissolve and collapse into holes.
The Wise Goblins, however, had been endowed with the Group Vajra Invincible Body, and when the black fumes landed on them, their magic robes brightened with a spiritual light, indicating the repellent reaction between the defensive spells of the robes and the dark fumes.
Every earnest Mage had a host of passive defensive spells, the more powerful the mage, the harder they were to kill.
But the might of this Dragon Language Magic was just too great, all sorts of defensive spells failed one after another, and the robes were quickly rendered useless and dissolved. One after another, the Wise Goblins activated their pre-arranged spell sequences, gleaming with their final light as they were transported away, though some of the mages had prepared an Any Door spell in their sequence instead of a teleportation spell.
Any Door, compared to a teleportation spell, affords more flexibility in use, as it can be offensive or defensive. However, after casting, one needs to consider the landing point and the action of entering the door, so it is not an instantaneous transportation.
Under normal circumstances, the mages could easily make decisions, but at this moment, as the Wise Goblins were all providing Mana and spiritual power to Lin Xiao, their reaction was slightly delayed, leading to their death.
Droplets of black rain fell on the Wise Goblins, and even though the temporary Vajra Invincible Body gave them resilience akin to the Calabash Brothers, they could only withstand a brief moment before being breached by the terrifying Dragon Language Magic, and their bodies dissolved away.
Lin Xiao watched as one precious mage after another from his Clan died and felt great sorrow in his heart, but there was no alternative, as this was the method with the least losses foreseen by his Prophetic Art.
They couldn’t escape; they were locked on, and even if they teleported away as a group from here, Black Dragon Nejelanmu would follow through the teleportation. Every Dragon had certain magical abilities; it’s just that the Dragon’s physical strength was so overpowering that it was often overlooked.
Unfortunately, the Divine Incarnation was limited in how much Divine Power it could burst forth at once, unlike his True Body, which could unleash hundreds of points of Divine Power in one go-the limit for the Incarnation was ten points of Divine Power.
Luckily, Black Dragon Nejelanmu’s Dragon Language Magic spell did not last long, and after ten seconds, the black rain ceased to fall, and the invisible twisting black smoke slowly dissipated, revealing the somewhat exhausted Black Dragon. Noticing that so many enemies below had not perished, the Black Dragon opened its mouth and swept down a stream of Dragon Breath, noticeably smaller than before, killing a dozen Wise Goblins and incidentally destroying some of the defenseless pillars of the Forbidden Sky Formation.
Of course, by then the base had already been thoroughly destroyed, and the Forbidden Sky Formation had been dissolved beyond functionality.
Out of thousands of Golems, only a few hundred remained; two-thirds of a thousand Wise Goblins were dead in an instant, the losses were so great that they pained Lin Xiao deeply.
But this was not the time for sorrow. The Black Dragon, having used two Dragon Language spells comparable to Legendary Spells, had exhausted its mental and Magic Powers. After all, it was not a Rank 8 Legendary Dragon, but for a Rank 7 Dragon to cast two spells at the Legendary Level in succession, it must be said that the Dragon race was incredibly powerful.
Take advantage of his illness to claim his life, seeing how the Black Dragon circled in the air with hesitation and began flapping its wings to flee, Lin Xiao would not allow it. He burned another ten points of Divine Power and pointed at the Black Dragon in the air:
“Ordinance. Shackles!”
The Divine Arts, fueled by the expanding Divine Power, formed a massive white energy shackle that appeared above the Black Dragon and dropped down, rapidly crisscrossing and tightening. The front claws and wings were snuggly ’ trapped, and it spun as it fell, crashing heavily on the rugged terrain below, sending a boom’ and a cascade of flying debris.
“Child of my lord, lend me your strength!”
Lin Xiao soared into the sky and roared, and the surviving Wise Goblins, along with those who were teleported to a distance, began converging towards him. Remnants of spiritual power and Mana surged into his body from the heavens. Feeling the immense spiritual power and temporarily gathered Mana within him, Lin Xiao did not hesitate to burn another ten points of Divine Power, reaching towards the sky with an empty grasp:
“Ordinance. Seal!”
Countless beams of white light converged towards him as the center, rapidly contracting to the point that even the surrounding light dimmed. As his hand slowly pressed towards the Black Dragon, a trace of panic was visible in the Dragon’s large pupils for the first time, and it cried out loudly:
“Dragon God Above, you cannot treat Nejelanmu like this!”
He pressed down with his palm, seemingly empty-handed, yet the essence of the Black Dragon weakened at a visibly rapid pace.
This was a seal from the layer of the rules, ordinary seals could not restrain a Black Dragon.
“Actually captured it.”
The senior mages were quite surprised; in their view, it was not difficult for Lin Xiao, with his Incarnation and a few Clan members, to kill the Black Dragon, but capturing it alive was not easy, almost incredibly challenging. The seniors were not very optimistic about his chances, but he had managed to do it..
