The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 892: The Power of the Dragon King

The Dragon King's human form quickly transformed into a giant, long red dragon. His body reached more than five hundred kilometers. His aura became far more terrifying as he no longer held it back and released it freely, as if he wanted everyone here to sense it.

For beasts in general, they couldn't help but feel their souls tremble and their instincts scream at them to respect the Dragon King. For the dragons, the effect was much greater. They not only felt respect, but they even had the urge to prostrate before the Dragon King in worship.

This was caused by bloodline suppression that strongly affected not only their bodies' reactions but also their souls. It was an innate response in every beast that possessed lower purity toward a being whose bloodline purity and characteristics were closer to their gods.

The dragons' souls trembled, and they were slightly disturbed in the middle of their battles or their fun.

At this moment, the devils also looked in the Dragon King's direction. His aura was too terrifying and too suffocating to be ignored, and they instinctively turned to see him.

The incoming devil reinforcements also looked toward the Dragon King, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their souls.

They had to fight that?!

The devils' interstellar vessel stopped its movement as they began to disembark more troops while still in the air. They also pointed their beam cannons toward the Dragon King's giant body.

The two pseudo-immortal-stage devils also focused themselves on the Dragon King. After sensing his terrifying aura, they knew they had to take care of him first before thinking about helping anyone else. With the Dragon King here, anything would be rendered useless if he decided to interfere.

After the Dragon King transformed into his dragon form, his gaze swept toward the devil reinforcements that were approaching the city at high speed. His gaze was sharp, and there was even a trace of mockery in it. As a dragon, he was confident and arrogant. If he believed he could take care of these devils on his own, then he was certain he could do it.

He lifted his giant body higher, and each of his movements made the space tremble. The devils' interstellar vessel followed the Dragon King's movement with their beam cannon. They had already recharged for another shot.

The two pseudo-immortal-stage devils had already taken on their devil forms, and they quickly flew toward the Dragon King. Their intention was to defeat him as soon as possible, so they planned to use everything from the start.

Without any hesitation, they finally started their attack. One of them used his body cultivation power, and the other used a combination of wind and lightning.

One released a powerful punch that pierced through space, while the other created a storm from his palm. Strong winds and lightning surged outward, rushing toward the Dragon King.

The interstellar vessels also fired their beam cannons. A rumbling sound echoed across the area. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The Dragon King floated below the clouds, and suddenly the space around the city became distorted, creating a shield that covered the city's edge. The people who saw it widened their eyes in shock. They could sense powerful space laws within the distorted space and the complexity woven into it.

The shield reached up into the sky and protected the Dragon King. The moment the beam hit the distorted space—

Zmmm!

The beam entered the distorted space as if it was consumed, leaving no destruction or explosion behind. The attacks from the two peak pseudo-immortal-stage devils also struck the distorted space, and their attacks were instantly consumed just the same.

The people who saw this were shocked, because four powerful attacks that could easily kill even a peak pseudo-immortal-stage cultivator were blocked so easily. The two pseudo-immortal-stage devils also felt their hearts shudder, since their combined strikes were actually stopped by this spatial distortion.

But then they sensed something from within the distortion and couldn't help widening their eyes again.

"Evade!" one of them shouted, right before the strikes that had hit the distorted space suddenly shot toward the approaching devil troops. One of the beam attacks came from the north, yet its beam suddenly shot toward the west. Another was fired from the east, but its beam appeared in the south.

The devils' strikes were the same. Their techniques were redirected in other directions, all of them aimed at their own troops. The devils, who did not expect the attacks to be redirected at them, had no time to evade or defend themselves. They were instantly swept away by all of those attacks.

Tens of thousands instantly died, since the attacks were powerful peak pseudo-immortal-stage strikes. This caused chaos in the devils' ranks as they scattered from the impact.

One of the peak pseudo immortal stage devils who had comprehended space laws saw this and showed a solemn expression.

'That is not only space distortion to disperse the attack but also spatial displacement. Everything that enters that distorted space will come out from another direction,' he thought.

What the Dragon King did was similar to what Aldrian used when he opened a spatial rift to block enemies's attacks and redirect them elsewhere.

However, the Dragon King's technique was more complex, since it covered an enormous area and also contained other laws. For example—

Suddenly, the distorted space suddenly grew hot, and blue flames immediately appeared, engulfing the distorted space.

At this moment, a wall of blue flame blocked the city and rose into the sky, creating a towering pillar. The sight was truly extraordinary, and anyone who saw it couldn't help but stop what they were doing.

The blue flame's heat spread to more than a thousand kilometers, forcing everyone to protect themselves from the intense temperature.

Those closest to the flames inside the city even felt their skin burning, which made all of them move further away to lessen the heat.

The battle seemed to pause for a moment, except for the fight of the Phoenix Queen. She did not appear affected or impressed by the Dragon King's technique and continued attacking Argus. Argus, unable to focus because of everything happening around him, had already lost one of his arms as her whip sliced through it.

The Phoenix Queen's attacks were truly relentless, and from her expression she did not seem tired at all. Her face remained calm as she swung her whips and occasionally unleashed her flames through her body.

He gritted his teeth and started to think that he had no chance against the monster in front of him. He was not given any time to strategize his movements or gather strength to unleash a powerful technique.

As he continued to evade, block, and sometimes counterattack, he sensed the wall of flame suddenly rolling from the top. The flame wall that had reached the sky fell like a giant wave, spreading outward directly toward the hundreds of thousands of devils that came as reinforcement.

Its falling speed was tremendous, something its massive scale did not reflect at all. The space itself burned, and it even left spatial rifts in many places along the flame's path. The space broke apart with flames burning through it, revealing the void behind it in scattered pieces like a shattered puzzle.

The height of the blue flame reached the devils's reinforcement formation, which shocked all of them and made them instantly attempt to escape. But the flame's speed was already far faster than most of the devils. The two peak pseudo-immortal-stage devils had already escaped the moment they sensed the flames falling toward them.

Whooosh!

The giant wave of flame swept across the area below and spread an inferno for more than ten thousand kilometres. The devils caught in it stood no chance. They did not feel pain or anything at all as their bodies instantly turned to ash. The devils' interstellar vessels and cruisers were all engulfed in flames, their barriers collapsing a split second after the fire touched them.

The large hulls of the interstellar vessels were already burning and heavily damaged, with holes of various sizes across them. The flames also reached their interiors and killed everyone inside.

They then fell from the sky like flies that suddenly died.

The space across the inferno became wobbly, and rifts started to form throughout the region because the space could no longer endure the heat.

It was one of the Dragon King's mass destruction techniques that he had not used for a long time, the Wave of Inferno.

The sight made everyone feel chills. This level of destruction was something that even pseudo-immortal-stage cultivators found despairing.

Argus felt that despair. Is this the power of the Dragon King? He suddenly felt that everything was really useless. Their resistance was meaningless. The Dragon King was a monster of his own kind, and there was also the Phoenix Queen.

He gritted his teeth as he decided to escape.

But before he could act on the thought in his mind, the Phoenix Queen suddenly used another trick and the tips of her whips changed shape into a sword. This happened in a split second, and the sword launched from behind Argus.

Pierced!

The sword pierced his chest.
