Chapter 0204: This Is Just the Beginning!

Ino, who had initially obeyed Bane’s orders and refrained from going to the altar, could no longer hold back after hearing Huang Long’s words. With a roar, he shouted, “Huang Long, killing you is enough for me!” As soon as the words left his mouth, he appeared on the altar. With a roar, he threw a punch at Huang Long.

Under his punch, the air above the altar trembled, and the four jade pillars on the altar emitted flashes of talismanic light.

Roar!

Under the astonished gazes of the people in the square below, a massive black dragon rushed forward, roaring as it lunged at Huang Long.

Furious, Ino stepped onto the altar and struck swiftly—so fast that not only the powerful warriors of the Holy Land but also Zevi, Wendy, and other gods of the Divine Realm were unable to react in time. Even the Sea God Apton stepped back in shock to avoid being affected.

Watching the black dragon formed from the shockwave, Huang Long’s eyes turned icy as he threw a punch in return.

Under the astonished eyes of Apton and the others, Huang Long’s right fist collided with the black dragon, scattering it apart. The shockwave disappeared.

By then, Ino had already closed the distance to just a few meters in front of Huang Long. With a fierce expression, he pressed down with his palm.

“Black God Devourment!”

A black demon god formed beneath his palm, opening its massive mouth to swallow Huang Long.

Devourment?

Huang Long sneered. He channeled all his inner energy, causing black light to spread around him. These black lights gathered together and spun.

“Star Devourment Technique!”

Since his opponent relied on the laws of darkness, and his Devourment attack was extremely powerful, Huang Long decided to counter with his own devouring technique to break through and defeat him.

The Star Devourment Technique created a powerful sucking force as the black vortex spun. As the black demon god struggled, it was swallowed by the vortex, which then turned toward Ino.

Ino hadn’t expected Huang Long to easily counter his fierce attack and strike back. Feeling the terrifying sucking force of the vortex, Ino’s expression changed. He activated all his magical energy, with black demonic energy surging out as his body flashed, allowing him to escape Huang Long’s devourment.

Ino launched successive attacks, but Huang Long countered them instantly. In the blink of an eye, Ino stood dozens of meters away from Huang Long, stunned. The people in the square below were equally shocked.

Zevi and the others frowned, their expressions mixed.

Bane realized that although Ino’s attacks were strong, Huang Long had easily countered them and forced Ino back. Ino was at a disadvantage, and Huang Long’s strength shocked him. It seemed that if he didn’t intervene, Ino would eventually lose.

Barnay’s expression darkened.
Phoenix Clan’s Simp glanced at Barnay’s face and felt secretly pleased. As the arch-rival of the Dragon Clan, he naturally rejoiced to see them in distress.
Yet, he was equally shocked by the Yellow Dragon’s strength.
He knew Ino’s strength well—his own was only slightly inferior to Ino’s.
If anything, this 16-year-old human, the Yellow Dragon, seemed stronger than him.
The Sea Queen Euman stood beside the Sea God Apton, her eyes fixed on the Yellow Dragon.
The Sea God Apton smiled and said, “Girl Euman, are you tempted?”
The Yellow Dragon was young, handsome, and a powerful being in the divine realm. The miracles he had performed in recent years—even if it weren’t the Sea Queen Euman, if the Sea God Apton were a woman, even she might be tempted.
With her mind fixed on the Yellow Dragon, Euman blushed despite being the Sea Queen at her core.
“Lord Apton, you’re joking,” Euman said with a soft laugh.
Apton didn’t say anything more and continued to gaze at the center of the altar. Euman felt relieved.
Standing at the center of the altar, the Yellow Dragon focused on Ino and said indifferently, “You’ve finished attacking. Now it’s my turn.” With that thought, the Green Rainbow Sword flew out from his body. With a resounding clang that echoed through the skies, a burst of green sword light surged upward.
Under everyone’s astonished gazes, the Green Rainbow Sword rose high into the air, then transformed into countless sword beams. These beams converged together, forming a giant grinding disc.
“The Rotating Sword!”
The Yellow Dragon pointed at the sword disc with both hands, pouring powerful magic into it.
The sword beams immediately spun, creating dazzling light, before shooting downward.
As they rotated, a sword pillar hundreds of meters in size spun continuously, striking down relentlessly.
In just an instant, the Yellow Dragon struck. Only after the sword pillar crashed down did Ino react, realizing its terrifying power. Panic flashed across his face. But as a powerful being in the divine realm, he roared, raised both hands, and unleashed a massive black palm print to counterattack. At the same time, his entire body glowed with black light. With a twist, he moved hundreds of meters away, escaping the sword pillar’s range, then turned to counterattack the Yellow Dragon.
“Yellow Dragon, that’s all there is to you!” Ino said mockingly and triumphantly after dodging the attack.
But as soon as his words faded, he heard Barnay’s urgent cry: “Be careful behind you!”
The moment Barnay’s voice reached him, he felt sharp sword beams charging at him.
What was going on?!
Ino was terrified.

There was no time for him to turn back now. Immediately, he transformed into his Black Dragon form—a hundred-zhang-long black giant dragon appeared on the altar. Then, the dragon swished its tail. A black storm arose, meeting the sharp sword beams. It sounded like metal striking metal, with continuous ringing noises. At that moment, Eino’s dragon form turned its head upward and soared into the sky. He was shocked to see that the sword summoned by the Yellow Dragon had continuously produced countless sword beams that attacked from behind him. Just as he turned back, those countless green sword beams attacked again. Eino’s expression changed. Even though he had a strong defense in his dragon form, he dared not engage with those sword beams and could only open his mouth. “Dragon Power!” A thunderous dragon roar that shook the heavens and earth rang out. Immediately afterward, a massive sound wave swept toward those sword beams. In front of this powerful sound wave, those sword beams resembled ships heading straight into it, creating countless shockwaves with each collision. As a powerful being from the Divine Realm and a member of the Black Dragon race, Eino’s dragon roar was many times stronger than the roars from the Dragon Language Empire’s palace. With this roar, the air currents across the entire island trembled. Millions of sea creatures in the square felt their minds ringing loudly, and those with weaker cultivation even lost their balance and fell to the ground. Everyone stared in horror at the altar. Powerful beings from various Divine and Sacred Realms also channeled their magic and combat energy to protect themselves. Below the square, the sea warriors staying by the altar were so shocked that they started bleeding from all their orifices. Even the Sea Queen Euman trembled, her face turning pale. The Sea God Apton, startled, immediately channeled his magic. “Blue Water Barrier!” Blue mist spread around the altar, forming vibrating air wall barriers. Only then did the sea warriors around them retreat from the brink of death. Dragon Power? The Yellow Dragon watched as Eino used Dragon Power to repel the green sword beams and sneered. Then, it took to the air, made a strange gesture under the astonished gazes of Eino and the others, and spat out eight mysterious notes: “Wu! Om! Ah! Hung! Ma! Ya! Fu! Bo!” As the Yellow Dragon’s voice faded, wave after wave of sound waves, resembling stormy waves, spread outward, as if thousands of dragons were roaring in fury. In the face of these sound waves, everything was destroyed, reduced to powder, and then vanished with the force of the storm.

Ino was filled with terror as he swung his four claws. Four giant, mountain-sized claw shadows charged at those stormy wave sound waves, but to no avail—the four mountains were instantly shattered. Under the threat of death, Ino roared in fury. “Dragon’s Fury!” His entire body covered in black dragon scales tightened, his two massive black horns and four claws grew thicker and longer. A black mist swirled around his body, forming a sea of darkness. Then, he struck again—his enormous claw prints covered half of the sky above the altar, colliding with those stormy wave sound waves. Dragon’s Fury, a unique skill innate to dragons—even the Golden Sacred DragonFiet had used it before being killed by the Yellow Dragon, allowing it to instantly boost its strength. A deafening roar came from above the altar. In the sky, it was like a thunderbolt striking in clear weather; the clouds above the Island of Eternity churned violently. This time, even some level-seven and level-eight warriors in the square were knocked to the ground. Ino’s desperate attacks finally pushed back those stormy wave sound waves. Yet, those waves kept coming, seemingly endless. After blocking the strongest wave ahead, more waves rushed in from behind. With a look of horror, Ino watched as those sound waves struck him. His massive black dragon body, soaring high in the sky, was flung away like a tiny worm by the waves. After Ino was sent flying, the blue water barrier laid out by the Sea God Apton around the altar also shattered with a crisp sound and disappeared entirely. The sound waves continued to surge beyond the altar. “Ino!” Suddenly, Bane’s furious cry rang out. It was too late to save his old friend. He rushed to Ino, who was flying backward, and with a fierce strike, dispersed the sound waves, sending out a gust of energy to catch Ino’s black dragon body. Everything calmed down. After a long while, the people who had fallen in the square finally stood up. They looked in shock and saw that the ground around the altar was cracking bit by bit, spreading to the areas occupied by the dragons, phoenixes, and the Thunderflame Mansion. On the altar, the four pillars in each corner had been shattered and flew away unknown whereabouts. In the center of the altar, golden lights flashed from the sacrificial map. The mysterious power of the map only protected the center of the altar; cracks also appeared in the other corners, though small, they were clearly visible. Seeing the state of the altar, the Sea God Apton’s expression turned extremely grim. The Yellow Dragon sneered—this was just the beginning.
