Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Chapter 940 End the Dynasty I

Chapter 940  End the Dynasty I

The massive fangs snapped close, enveloping the Border Fortress in one go as a colossus head emerged from the ground.

A head covered in grand dark-green scales, almost glimmering black in the sun's reflection, appeared, radiating terrifying power that radiated through the Untamed Jungle. Its presence filled the area hundreds of kilometers around it, forcing all creatures to a halt. No one dared move as the terrifying creature acted. Even the Dragys Lordess was frozen, her eyes widening in terror as the scene unfolded.

She wanted to act, but her body didn't move, and her mind screamed at her, telling her to back off. But the Dragys Lordess didn't retreat. She stayed there while her subordinates retreated dozens of meters. Two of the dozen Divine Dragys lost control of their bodies. Their legs caved in, and they collapsed to the ground. The others weren't hit that badly, but their eyes bulged and looked like they were about to pop out.

The scenery transformed into an even more terrifying one – most couldn't believe something like that was possible – when the slits of a serpentine eye, the size of several large buildings, snapped open. The eye was poisonous green and merely flashed open for a quarter of a second through Michael's vision before it closed again. The World Serpent disappeared as quickly as it had appeared and returned to Michael.

Swallow Domain had unleashed its fury, completing its designated task before leaving the Untamed Jungle again.

'Good job. That was impressive.' Michael commented with a smile on his lips when he sensed how much Swallow Domain had stored from a single use.

[I am a Beast God. What did you expect? I think you're severely underestimating our power. We aren't weak, even if you think that sometimes. You might not understand our decision yet, but you will understand and praise our wisdom once you have a clear view of the big picture, young one.] Jormungandr hissed loudly in his mind, unable to hide the pride in its voice.

Michael's smile didn't cease, but the same couldn't be said about the Dragys Lordess. She brought the Dragonians, the dozen Divine Dragys, with her to eliminate the Azure Quetzalcoatl and the Lord of the territory in the Untamed Jungle's outskirts. A few Dragonians should have been enough to kill Michael. At the same time, the rest would use their Support and Defensive Soultrait Symbols to protect her from the worst injuries while boosting her combat prowess enough to eliminate the Azure Quetzalcoatl.

She wanted to protect the Border Fortress and ensure it wouldn't be conquered like the last one, but everything went wrong, starting when Michael destroyed the spatial distortion dome. The High Beast Hordes and two Divine Beasts were teleported to another place, where they could wreak havoc, and…her Border Fortress was swallowed whole.

One moment, the settlement was still there. Now, it was no more. It had been obliterated in one go, and millions of Links of Loyalty were cut instantly. The sensation of losing so many subjects within seconds was terrifying, but the Dragys Lordess felt bad. She felt like it was merely the beginning.

The Dragys Lordess couldn't have been more right. This was just the beginning. A few more Links of Loyalty severed at that moment, and her eyes widened upon realizing that the severed links didn't source from a single Border Fortress. No, the Links of Loyalty that were just severed came from seven different settlements…and more followed quickly.

Her eyes widened in shock. Seven settlements were under attack, and the worst was that those specific settlements weren't protected by any Divine Lifeforms. It was almost as if they attacked these settlements, knowing that the Dragys Lordess changed their deployment to prepare the Dragonian for the next move. The Dragys Lordess had planned to kill the Azure Quetzalcoatl for a long time. She changed her plan and adjusted it for a few days when she heard about the Lord on the outskirts of the Untamed Jungle. She sensed the memories of her subordinates' deaths through the Link of Loyalty thanks to the use of rare and dangerous Soullife Arts. Thus, she was prepared to fight Michael, also known as the vessel of the Untamed Jungle's divinity. A portion of it, at least.

The Dragys Lordess was prepared to fight Michael and the Azure Quetzalcoatl, but nothing went according to her plan. Michael used powers beyond his Tier…beyond everything she had seen through the Soullife Arts and her severed Links of Loyalty. His power and actions were far beyond everything she'd anticipated. Still, Michael didn't immediately attack her with the humongous serpent head. He couldn't attack her with it. Michael didn't possess the authority to kill a Divine Lifeform like her so easily. It looked terrifying, and it was shocking how easily he'd devoured an entire settlement, but that was it.

Or so she'd hoped.

The Azure Quetzalcoatl hissed loudly and jumped into action. A dense white hue shrouded the Guardian Beast of the Untamed Jungle as it shot forward much faster than it used to be. Cracks appeared all over its scales, but a viscous, silverish glimmering liquid sealed the cracks moments after they appeared. The Dragys Lordess was the first to react. Her body was shrouded in mighty flames that enveloped her to create a dense, fiery armor. Her body expanded, and large leathery wings sprouted from her back. Her tail expanded just like her claws. Several Artifacts, probably five, appeared all over her body. The Artifacts ranged from Rare Divine Artifacts to a single Legendary ring, which seemed to augment her fiery armor drastically. The Dragys Lordess' power skyrocketed, but the Azure Quetzalcoatl didn't care. It was about to crash into the Dragys Lordess when it disappeared. It vanished before the Dragys Lordess' eyes and reappeared behind the two Divine Dragys whose legs had caved in earlier. They had gotten up from the ground but were still shaken by what had unfolded before their eyes merely a few seconds ago. The Border Fortress disappeared, swallowed by a Beast God.

Unfortunately, their fear and shivering legs were also why the Azure Quetzalcoatl, strengthened by Unlimited Enhancement and healed by River of Vigor's advanced healing serum, chose them as targets. Michael had enhanced the Azure Quetzalcoatl just enough to distract everyone. It was now as strong as the Dragys Lordess should have been with her Legendary Divine-ranked Artifact and other means to strengthen her. Maybe the Guardian Beast was even stronger.

But that was not the crucial factor right now. More important was that the pair of frightened Divine Dragys didn't expect the surprise attack. Michael had used Cosmic Stride on the Azure Quetzalcoatl, whose momentum didn't drop a notch as it teleported to the Divine Dragys' back. It was still at top speed and swallowed the first Divine Dragys whole. The frightened Dragys tried to respond, but Michael had already acted, using Seer's Domination to attack the Divine Dragys' mind and soul. Still shattered from its experience with the Beast God, the Divine Dragys was easy to attack mentally.

It was killed on the spot, terrifying crunches reverberating through the proximity. One Divine Dragys was killed on the spot, while the Quetzalcoatl's tail slapped the other Divine Dragys. The Divine Lifeform was hurled through the air and crashed into multiple massive trees in the distance. The trees collapsed as the Divine Lifeform smashed into them like a cannonball. Unfortunately, the damage was not enough to kill the Divine Dragys. But Michael was already there, waiting to attack.

The Dragys Lordess had turned around to stop the Azure Quetzalcoatl but was a fraction of a second too late. Still, she managed to protect the other Dragonian from further damage as she engaged in a battle with the Azure Quetzalcoatl.

But that might have been her greatest mistake. She ignored Michael, who had already started transforming.

His eyes glowed vibrantly as he appeared beside the Dragys, who'd been hurled through the air. The Divine Dragys looked fine on the outside. Even True Vision told Michael about the Dragys' insides. He was still fine, except for his mind. It would take a quarter of a second to get back to its senses...but that was too long.

His Aethyr Claw sliced through the Dragys' throat before piercing through his eye socket, killing the Divine Lifeform instantaneously.

That was just the start.

The Dragys Lordess' last day had come. It was about time to end her Dynasty.
