The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 570 Close Shave

Lord Que was about to unleash a probing attack. But the moment he stimulated his Spiritual Sea, his vision was suddenly engulfed.

This couldn't be counted as speed. It simply wasn't possible to detect the incoming essence. Surpassing the rules and laws of the universe, Lord Que was truly dumbfounded.

Beyond his expectations, several streams of dark golden lights instantly appeared right in front of his face!

"Hm?!" Lord Que instantly tensed.

Weirdly complex Spirt energy principle surrounded him. Instead of trying to drill through his protective Divine Aura, a strange force magically affected Lord Que's Spiritual Sea.

Sluggishness begins to weigh down Lord Que's mind. So slow, his limbs felt tightly constricted. Wrapped up in a mysterious force that couldn't be broken out of. His entire being was thrown into an endless cocoon.

Tightly trapped by such overwhelming Spirit energy Law principles, even peak early Divine Rulers would be severely helpless.

For all of two seconds, Lord Que had a delayed reaction. He was as slow, no, slower than a mortal snail!

'This...enough!!'

But promptly afterward, Lord Que's soul erupted with frightening strength. His overpowering soul energy jolted his Spiritual Sea awake.

Once free from the sluggish shackle, Lord Que coldly snorted. His snort vibrated out rippling purple lightning.

Every light of lightning was far too bright. The dancing trickles of electricity couldn't be stopped. It shredded the lines of dark golden Spirit energy surrounding him in an instant!

Freed, Lord Que thought he could take a spilled-second breather. But the instant he freed himself, a deathly danger alerted his very soul.

To a couple of steps to his left side, somehow, Amber, who was dozens of meters away, had suddenly appeared!

On average days, even a Divine Origin can cross such speed in less than a split second. However, they would still need to operate energy from their Inner World. Their fleshly bodies simply can't move that fast on their own.

But the most bizarre thing was that, once again, Lord Que had failed to detect Amber surging any of her energy!

He stared wide-eyed at a blinding flash of golden pulsating from the tip of a staff glued into Amber's hand.

The red noble staff vigorously pulsated, blinding dark golden rays streaking out. An insidious killing intent, one that can recklessly harvest lives across countries spewed from Amber's energies.

At point-blank range, no matter how higher the realm Lord Que is, if his defenses weren't up, this attack was sure to injure him!

Lord Que couldn't understand how could this possibly happen. Or why were their intense green lights frying parts of Amber's skin and spewing from her eyes.

He cast all thoughts aside and erupted with 80% of his Inner World power!

Luminous purple lightning brilliantly shined out. Fast, absolute speed, merciless speed came from Lord Que.

His hand had formed an overbearing purple lightning claw and struck out with celestial speed faster than a fraction of a second!

It was impossible for Amber to react!

'Chi!'

The sound of glass shattering filled the air, and blood spewed into the maze. Amber's protective Divine Aura largely cracked open as she was sent flying, blood leaking from her mouth.

Evidently, against the supreme might of peak middle stage Divine Ruler prowess, Amber could barely put up a resistance.

But, despite the painful chaotic energy principles rampaging through her internal body, a small, devious smile curled her lips.

At the same time Amber flew, Lord Que's killing intent was fully ignited! His handsome face deranged to that of a savage beast, ferocious with a vicious smile.

'Fucking bitch almost got me! Alright, I'll thoroughly enjoy playing with you-'

Just as Lord Que wanted to rush forward with his venomous thoughts, the whole atmosphere suddenly changed!

Power, infinite power, destruction power descended upon him like a divine judgment from the heavens.

He was a mere leaf in the face of this overwhelming storm!

"What?!?"

A tremendous amount of Lord Que's Inner World energy was suppressed. He could barely summon 80% of his power now.

As his eyes widened, death rapidly approached Lord Que. Death came in the form of numerous gray destruction spears!

These destruction spears tore out of the spot Amber once stood, and every single one of them pointed at Lord Que.

A marathon of questions violently stormed Lord Que's mind. He wanted to desperately move back with a high-speed lightning movement art. His body was shrouded in luminous purple lightning.

But his extreme speed was absolutely useless!

'Chi~!'

Flesh tore open and blood spewed out. One of the gray destruction spears outsped Lord Que, shredding his protective Divine Aura into bits and pieces and then tearing right into his shoulder!

Streams of blood gushed from his shoulder while Lord Que vomited mouthfuls of blood.

"Ahhh!!!" Lord Que's eyes turned bloodshot. Bright veins appeared on his face, popping out blood from extreme stress.

The instant he got struck, Lord Que burned a tremendous portion of his soul's core vital essence!

Black lights instantly covered Lord Que, shielding him from the destruction spears.

The black lights shredded open the Void Space and instantly teleported Lord Que right into it.

Though he was gone, the destruction space didn't let up. They all flew straight into the Void Space as well!

Once the Void Space opening closed back open, silence finally returned to the starry maze.

Amber, throughout the entire time, had assimilated into a meditative state. She had already taken several saint-quality healing pills.

The healing energy began to rapidly cleanse the chaotic lightning energy principles and mended her rupture organs and bones.

Amber's expression was a bit pale, but her expression stayed calm. She was making a quick analysis over the brief fight. 'Really, if I didn't stimulate this weird chaos energy, I would've been helpless under that freak suppressive force.'

Indeed, even with Amber's prowess and energy principles equaling that of the peak Early Divine Ruler, the gap between her and that Lord Que was still far too wide.

Lord Que's full prowess was at least 200 or even 300% more than what Amber could ever hope to achieve.

The power he can use at the middle stage both in terms of Law's density and complexity, was far too immense. Even ordinary middle stage Divine Rulers would have ease suppressing peak Early Stage Divine Rulers.

What didn't help was the fact that Lord Que's combat prowess was also at the top class of all peak Middle Divine Rulers. He possibly had the means to contend with Late Stage Divine Ruler experts for a period of time.

However, despite the numerous overwhelming advantages, Amber had one advantage that couldn't be overpowered or suppressed.

That is, the chaos energy principles within her bloodstream!

Amber needed to use a tremendous amount of soul energy and bloodline energy to stimulate the power of these chaos energy principles. She also had to endure the sensation of her skin burning away from her flesh and a headache that threatened to explode her head wide open.

But it was all worth it.

Through chaos energy enhancing all of her powers, she was able to rely on it to break right through Lord Que's suppressive force!

It wasn't the same teleportation as Cain. But her movement couldn't be bound by the rules and laws of space.

In that previous fight, it was as if she had taken a step right through the Void Space!

Only this way could Amber just faintly pinpoint a highly deadly trap, activate it, and direct the flow to target only Lord Que.

Her Slaughtering Spirit Art helped lock down specifically on Lord Que's life aura, making him the prime target of death.

That plan couldn't be riskier. In fact, Amber could say that was the highest risk she had ever taken in her life. And yet, everything came out on top for her in the end.

'Still, I hope I don't have anything strenuous like that again. That crazed fellow was far too powerful.' Sighing to herself, Amber focused on rapidly healing her injuries.

The chaotic lightning energy principles may be beyond Amber's powers. But the effect of a Saint Quality pill can cure even Holy Kings!

Middle Stage Divine Ruler prowess couldn't overpower such potency.

In no time at all, Amber's body returned to its peak state. Though, her mind felt a little weary.

Trudging through this endless maze managed to just slightly eat away at her state of mind.

After that fight with Lord Que, Amber was more than ready to speed out of the maze.

Focusing on her Divine Sense, Amber carefully retraced her step, going back to the same wall with the highest Great Dao sensation.

On this path, she decided to step up the pace. A light jog for her still meant that she was leaping over hundreds of meters within a single second.

Her pace brought her down a path that had only limited twists and turns.

This time, Amber brought her guard all the way up. She hoped it wouldn't happen again, but the possibility of meeting another crazed Divine Decree Lord was there.

Hours passed and, sure enough, Amber suddenly detected another life aura.

But this life aura didn't make Amber pause. A sigh of relief had even escaped her mouth.

She only had to stray a little off her path. And thankfully, this road wasn't overwhelmed with dangerous traps.

Several meters into this path, Amber spotted a beautiful young woman on the horizon.
