Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 827 - Bye Bye Everyone

Arthur couldn't help but close his eyes. He hoped and prayed, but none were answered. He tried, but the small distance of a few meters seemed like vast miles now.

The speed of the pagoda gathering up its energy was unparalleled. It exceeded the speed of the push he gave using his sword.

He was in pain, heavily wounded, and desperate for anything to happen to give him hope.

Yet he knew he had nothing else to do. The portal was getting close to the star however the light was now so bright that it even obscured the pagoda and the portal as well.

It was like a star was exploding, and in its path the light and energy would be racing to sweep away anything.

And anyone standing in their path.

At this moment Arthur recalled his life. He recalled how optimistic he was when he was a cultivator. His passion for knowledge and research, believing the path of salvation for cultivators wasn't through getting stronger but smarter.

However his smart mind angered the heavens and made him face such tribulation. He was sent here and in the end he had to start from nothing and build up himself.

He couldn't believe he went so far to stop here. He faced formidable enemies, fought against unfavorable situations but in the end he couldn't help but end up facing death.

And ironically it would happen inside his star map, inside his mind dantian, ending up somewhere related to his cultivation past life.

It was like fate was playing dirty tricks and joking around with him. He was going to die at a place related to cultivation, a place he tried his best to escape its shackles and soar the heavens.

In the end he ended up dying in such a place as if all his life and adventures were for nothing.

Like an ancient tree that got burnt down, its majestic stature was set ablaze and turned into ash.

And all he waited for was for a small gust of wind to blow away everything and wipe his existence from this world.

'Wait!'

Yet all of sudden Gege exclaimed in shock while Arthur totally ignored her. He knew there was no hope, and so he couldn't help but resign to such fate.

Yet he felt it.

Through Gege's portal, the portal she opened moments ago for him to escape through; something flew out of it like it was a rocket.

Arthur opened his eyes slowly only to spot a flash of red light that kept boiling like it was on fire.

"The… bloodsucker sword!!!"

Arthur was too shocked to see that old sword appearing out of the portal and slamming hard towards the big ball of crimson red light that was about to explode.

It seemed like ancient times already, he even forgot about that sword all this time. He got stronger and forgot about that glutinous sword.

Yet he never forgot how this sword saved his life numerous times when only he felt despair.

He couldn't help but stand on his feet while his eyes were attached to that sword. Although nothing could get near that pagoda now, that sword seemed like a fish swimming in water.

All the energy emitted by that pagoda was inhaled like it was air by that sword.

And Arthur even heard a satisfying sigh coming from the direction of the sword before it fiercely slammed inside the pagoda itself.

Anywhere the sword flashed, the energy was sucked dry. It seemed like it was able to dig a deep groove inside an ironclad rock. Arthur watched with daze and shock the sword he acquired a long time ago in the Nystic clan when he was still weak.

And that sword was already sucking dry large amounts of energy without showing any difficulty in doing so.

"Damn! That sword had a bottomless belly!!!" Arthur couldn't help but suck in cold air of breath while watching what was going to happen next.

'Ding! What the hell are you waiting for?' the system suddenly shouted, 'Ding! Go, go and hit that damn thing again and let it enter the star!'

Despite Arthur having already hit the portal and sent it with the pagoda towards the star, they were now hovering midair motionless.

When the pagoda released its energy it seemed it nullified what Arthur and his monster did before.

And so even when his bloody sword came out of nowhere and gave him a timely hand, it wasn't enough.

With the system's words, Arthur clenched his fists over the hilts of his sword. He knew it was a very precious chance that he got with pure luck.

He couldn't let the help his bloody sword gave be wasted. His will to fight instantly returned back, and even exceeded everything he felt before.

He wasn't just fighting desperately now, he had hope.

He was already on the doorstep of success, and he wouldn't be insane to screw things up.

Not after reaching such a stage.

The next moment he started to run. Despite that his bloody sword was sucking the energy the pagoda emitted in large amounts, it wasn't enough to save the star map from the wrath of such energy.

But Arthur was smart and shifted his running course towards the direction of his bloody sword. That path was the least with that annoying energy.

As such he had an easier time reaching that pagoda and portal.

"Go to hell," Arthur didn't hesitate to jump high in the air, clench both swords and raise them together before landing violently with all his might over the pagoda.

He didn't aim towards the portal but towards the thing he hated most here. He vented out all the despair and anger he accumulated inside before the pagoda pounced like a rubber ball, fast towards the star.

"Woosh!"

The next moment the pagoda, the portal, and his bloody sword went inside the star and vanished.

Then everything started to cool off.

It was like standing in a forest after facing a fire storm and then a storm of rain. He could feel that the star map was recovering fast, he even could smell the scent of smoke rising up from the scorching land.

However, it was over. Everything ended by the entrance of that pagoda and portal inside that star.

'It's not over yet,' however the golden dragon hurriedly said, 'this star is still connected with your star map. You need to sever the connection before it's too late!'

'Ding! You can't allow that explosive energy to reach here,' the system hurriedly added.

"But…" Arthur wanted to argue. His precious sword saved his life again and he hesitated to let it go in such a world.

He hesitated to cut the connection with that unknown world to him before giving his sword a chance to return back.

'There is no time,' the golden dragon shouted, 'the sword can't beat that beast. It can only buy us some time, so don't waste its sacrifice now!'

'Ding! Gege, try to sever the connection now!'

"Wait…" Arthur wanted to stop her but he was too late. Gege already used the few remaining golden pearl's energy to force the star map to cut the connection with that star.

"Rumble!"

However, despite doing that at the fastest speed, they were a bit late.

Severing the connection wasn't as simple as cutting off a limb. It took some time to execute, at least two minutes.

However, just before the first minute could pass, the star shook and an instantly endless stream of berserk energy swarmed the entire star map.

And it engulfed Arthur within.

'Take him out!' The golden dragon seemed to anticipate such a result as he ordered the moment that the star shook and that energy appeared.

Arthur was already sent to fly by the violent energy flooding off the star. Just as he was midair, a portal flashed behind his back and he simply passed through it.

Then the next moment he appeared inside his garden world, surrounded by few wisps of such energy.

The moment he landed on the ground, he heard a massive sizzling sound that instantly burnt away the area around in miles.

Even the ground itself got conceived by such violent energy.

And it was just a small touch of it.

"Ah!!!"

Arthur was so shocked to see such devastation happening from this small amount of power that leaked in here. Just before he could think of what could happen to his precious star map, or his dear bloody sword; he felt like his mind was about to explode.

He roared in deep pain while twisting violently on the ground out of excruciating pain.

His star map inside his mental dantian was already flooded with such violent energy and it was about to explode itself.

'Ding! Cut that damn star now!' the system thundered as he felt the danger Arthur was facing at the moment.

'It's… done!' Gege responded in less than ten seconds, 'it's severed.'

"Ah!!!"

However even with that, the amount of energy that escaped from that star was still enormous. Arthur couldn't help but keep screaming in twitching while feeling his brain was about to explode.

All his energy was now in turmoil. His mind dantian was strong, but in front of such berserk energy it felt like a broken kite in the wind.

Then Arthur fell motionless on the ground while his body turned back to his human form.

And he was covered in his own blood oozing from many wounds all over his body.

His lips turned blue and his face became ashen white.

He was in a deep coma, in such a miserable state, and the worst part wasn't over yet.

That energy was still wreaking havoc inside his body without anything to stop it.
