Chapter 669: The Golden Roc Spreads Its Wings

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After the Corpse Wizard King, Blood Angel Ophelia, and others realized that the Demon Hall was sealed, they tried dealing with it together. But, unfortunately, there wasn’t any way out of the Demon Hall, either in the sky or in the ground, and they couldn’t get out even after using all the skills up their sleeves. The Demon Hall wasn’t just able to greatly weaken one’s Divine Consciousness; the hardness of the ground and hall had reached an unbelievable extent.

Roar!

The Giant Ape King let out a roar and jumped up. He fiercely swung his rod at the wall and badly wished to destroy it. But, after a “rumble” echoed out, his fingers started shaking and turned numb. He almost fell to the ground, yet the black wall was still intact.

The Horned Dragon King Batty let out a shout and resumed his main form. “Let me deal with this,” he said, and spread his wings and soared up into the air. He shot up toward the room’s roof like a shell, and it seemed like he wanted to tear it open and rush out through it.

When the Horned Dragon King was tamed by Yang Ling, he had conflicting feelings about it and didn’t interact with the Dark Dragon King, Corpse Wizard King, and others. The Fairy Dragon Shania had better adaptation ability, and she quickly discovered the benefits of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension after she was tamed, and she further understood them with the passing of time. The Horned Dragon King also slowly blended into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, which was home to numerous Magical Beasts, thanks to the Fairy Dragon’s persuasions.

Horned Dragons were very powerful, and they possessed a large domain in Comol Lake. But there were many powerhouses and strong Magical Beasts lurking in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and even if the Horned Dragon Clan was stronger than them, they still weren’t able to withstand the frequent attacks and harassment, which was why the Horned Dragon Clan was unable to increase its population in past years. But it was a different case in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. The Wizard Pagoda’s dimension was filled with rich resources and suitable environments. Most importantly, the Horned Dragon Clan wouldn’t have to worry about attacks on their base. They could set their minds at ease, reproduce, and inhabit the land.

Furthermore, when the Horned Dragon King witnessed the swift practice speed of the Corpse Wizard King, Giant Ape King, and others who had the Magical Divine Rings and discerned that they only got stronger, he greatly envied them. He practiced to the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage several hundred thousand years ago and hadn’t been able to make any more progress since then. He wasn’t able to close the disparity between him and Divine Duty Experts, but the Magical Divine Rings crafted by Yang Ling gave him hope for achieving a breakthrough.

...

After a loud rumble echoed out, the Horned Dragon King Batty dejectedly fell onto the ground. The roof didn’t suffer any damages, but he wasn’t willing to accept this. He let out a roar before trying again several times. But the outcome was the same, and he didn’t manage to damage the roof even after slamming it so hard that he broke his head and shed blood.

“Batty, you don’t have to try that. It’s useless.” The Fairy Dragon Shania furrowed her brows and paused for a moment before saying, “Lord, if I didn’t guess wrong, a powerful Ancient Magical Formation Spell was set up in the Demon Hall. The walls, ground, and roof have been greatly reinforced by magic, and one won’t be able to rush out by force unless he has power at the same level of the person who set up the Formation Spell.”

When Yang Ling noticed that the Fairy Dragon had furrowed her brows and was wearing a pensive look, his eyes lit up. Giant Dragon Clan’s members had a long lifespan, and they had a long history in all Main Planes. She probably had a good method for breaking this Formation Spell. “Shania, isn’t there any other feasible method other than using force?”

The Fairy Dragon shook her head and let out a helpless sigh. She was familiar with many Ancient Magical Formation Spells, but this was still the first time she had seen an Ancient Magical Formation Spell as strong and powerful as this one. “If we were outside of the Magical Formation Spell, I might have been able to give it a try, but we’re stranded inside it, and I don’t have any way to deal with it.”

“Can it be that we’ll be stranded here for our whole lives?” After Yang Ling took several tours around the Demon Hall and tried teleporting several times to no avail, he bitterly shook his head. The Abyssal Demon Lord wasn’t just powerful. He had unexpectedly set up this terrifying Magical Formation Spell.

When Yang Ling’s eyes fell upon the altar, which was built with Moon Soul Stones, he got an idea, and he recalled the dying Black-Horned Demon within the dungeon. “The Black-Horned Demon Natalie has a good relationship with the Abyssal Demon Lord, and she also has great power,” he said aloud. “Can I tame her and ask her to break the formation spell?”

The Black-Horned Demon Natalie was also one of the survivors of the Ancient Gods and Devils War like the Abyssal Demon Lord. Even if her power was lower than the Abyssal Demon Lord’s and the Wandering Sword Venerable’s, she would still be much stronger than ordinary Divine Duty Experts. When she had recovered just a third of her power, she was able to withstand the ferocious attacks of Borgans and numerous experts. It could be easily imagined how great her power was, and he would probably be able to escape without a hitch if he tamed her.

Buzz!

When Yang Ling was about to grit his teeth and make up his mind on taking a risk and taming the Black-Horned Demon, the wizard pagoda’s mark between his brows throbbed suddenly and emitted an indistinct softy cry.

“Can it be that the Worldly Laws will descend again? Who achieved a breakthrough into the God-Level?” he thought.

Yang Ling was confused, and he entered the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension along with the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others. It could be seen that a large amount of pure Worldly Spiritual Qi had condensed in the air atop the Wizard Pagoda, and a large Energy Whirlwind had formed. But a Divine Tribulation didn’t occur like usual, and the whirlwind merely turned into a thick Energy Pillar that engulfed the mountain-like Golden Roc on the ground.

Swoosh!

After the Golden Roc absorbed a large amount of energy, the injuries on its wings started recovering quickly, and its fine scales shone with black radiance. Its body also emitted intense Energy Ripples, as well as a suffocating peerless wave of pressure that rivaled the one emitted by the Abyssal Demon Lord.

This wave of pressure spread far away, and even the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others felt great pressure weigh down on them, let alone the purple mouse Little Ice, the Thousand-faced Mink, and other Level Surpassing Magical Beasts who would shortly advance into the God-Level. They instantly detected great danger. Ordinary beasts lay on the ground in fright. They couldn’t even easily move a finger!

In a several hundred miles radius, it was only Yang Ling who wasn’t affected. On the contrary, he felt amiable ripples. “Pretty good. I will help you for the last time,” Yang Ling thought.

He let out a shout and flew to the Golden Roc’s side, taking out Premium Crystals and Moon Stones from his spatial ring. He set up a large-sale Spirit Gathering Formation Spell next to the Golden Roc and raised its absorption speed of the energy.

The boundless Worldly Spiritual Qi formed silver light specks that converged and condensed into a thick light pillar that engulfed the Golden Roc. The light pillar gradually grew larger thanks to the Spirit Gathering Formation Spell’s function, and the boundless energy formed a dense Energy Mist that seeped into every pore in the Golden Roc’s body.

The Golden Roc ravenously absorbed the energy in the sky before the nervous crowd’s gaze, and the Energy Ripples in its body only became more astounding. The Energy Ripples seemed like an ocean tide that grew higher and higher. Its body also expanded quickly, and its eyelids twitched. It also spread its wings little by little and started lightly flapping them.

Roar!

After an unknown amount of time, the Energy Whirlwind in the sky consumed all of its energy and was about to dissipate. At that moment, the Golden Roc suddenly opened its eyes and let out a shout before soaring into the sky. It was of colossal size, and its giant wings were able to cover the sky and sun alike. It also cast a large shadow over the ground. Its sharp eyes were cold and merciless and seemed like sharp daggers that were able to penetrate people’s souls. Its giant claws shone with a cold glint, and they formed a sharp contrast with the fine black scales on its body. It was also swift, and it flew swiftly among the white clouds in the sky.

The Golden Roc, who had slept for a long time, had finally awakened, which shocked and stunned everyone!

When the Nine-Headed Serpent King Hydra saw the Golden Roc’s colossal size, it finally understood what a real behemoth was, and when the Dark Dragon King, Horned Dragon King, and others saw the Golden Roc’s wingspan and shockingly sharp claws, they finally understood what a higher being was. They finally understood that there was always someone stronger. Additionally, when they witnessed the Golden Roc’s high speed, which rivaled teleportation, they finally understood what a real Flying Divine Beast was.

In the past, the crowd felt ashamed of their inferiority when they witnessed the Purple Sky Condor’s speed. But now, after seeing the Golden Roc spread its wings and witnessing it fly freely in the sky, they were all stunned. Even if they practiced for innumerable years and became High-Level Divine Duty Experts, they still wouldn’t be able to attain the Golden Roc’s abnormal speed. One couldn’t rival an apex Divine Beast’s inborn gift and magical ability with hard practice.

Roar!

The Golden Roc let out a cry before quickly diving down. When it was about to slam against the ground, it instantly folded its wings and turned into a handsome black-clothed youth. It prostrated in front of Yang Ling respectfully. “Lord, I’m Mertesacker, and I have to thank you for your help.”

Even though the Golden Roc Mertesacker was asleep for a long time, it was still clearly aware of the great help Yang Ling had provided him. If Yang Ling didn’t support it, and if it didn’t get the white mist emitted by the Wizard Pagoda, then it probably never would have woken up again for the rest of its life.

“Good, pretty good.” When Yang Ling looked at the spirited Golden Roc and detected the tremendous Energy Ripples within its body, he nodded with satisfaction. “Mertesacker, what is your current power? Are you able to travel between Planes?”

Yang Ling wanted to quickly know the current power of the Golden Roc, and he wanted to know whether it could forcefully break the Ancient Magical Formation Spell set up by the Abyssal Demon Lord. After he tamed the Golden Roc, he got its memory, but its memory was too massive. He would have to spend ten days or half a month just to arrange it well. He wasn’t in the mood for that, and he also didn’t have the time to slowly arrange it.

“Lord, I have awakened without a hitch, but some deadly injuries within my body still didn’t recover, and I probably have just four tenths of my peak state’s power,” the Golden Roc Mertesacker said, and waved his hand casually. As a “sizzling” noise echoed out, he created a thousand-foot-long spatial fissure. He said calmly, “Even though my power still hasn’t recovered, I’m probably still able to fly through spatial turbulence.”

“Is this a Golden Roc’s power?” The stunned crowd looked at the ghastly spatial fissure before looking at the carefree Golden Roc. Even Yang Ling was stunned. He knew long ago that the Golden Roc was powerful, but he still didn’t expect that its power could reach this extent.

A Wandering Divine Beast, the Golden Roc, surely had a Wandering Divine Beast’s power!
