Chapter 0608: The Disappearance of Lanbo City
Boom! A deafening noise erupted. Hundreds of millions of descendants of the Lanbo family in Lanbo City looked up at the sky in terror, while those below the rank of supreme gods were knocked out of the air by the violent sound.
Along with the noise came a sound of cracking. High above, the forbidden magic array that these descendants had trusted so much began to show signs of cracking after its light flickered. Filled with panic, they stared at the terrifying mountain and felt utterly desperate.
The cracking grew louder, and the cracks in the forbidden magic array spread like spider webs, extending in all directions.
“No, no!”
“I don’t want to die!”
Every corner of Lanbo City was plunged into deathly terror. Descendants cried out in despair, some even breaking through the barriers set by those guarding the city gates to rush outside.
Chaos reigned at all the city gates, as those trying to escape attacked those trying to stop them.
The head of the Lanbo family, sensing the madness of his fleeing descendants, hesitated for a moment before ordering firmly, “Guards at all city gates, obey my command—let everyone go!”
Under normal circumstances, descendants of the Lanbo family needed approval to leave the city, but given the emergency, as many as possible were allowed to escape. Hearing their leader’s command, the guards stopped blocking them, feeling relieved, with some even joining the escape.
High in the sky, Huang Long was surprised to see that the Group of Immortals Pavilion had only managed to crack the array’s restrictions rather than completely destroy them. But he soon resolved himself, knowing that the Lanbo family was a super-large family, and their city defense array, built over countless years by people like Mo Li, was not so easily broken.
With a thought, Huang Long made the Group of Immortals Pavilion rise, its light flashing as it launched another attack.
Inside Lanbo City, the hundreds of millions of Lanbo family descendants saw the giant mountain descending once again and were filled with extreme terror. They fled outside in panic, rushing blindly.
The head of the Lanbo family and the elders were also in a state of shock.
“Attack with all our might!” The head of the Lanbo family was the first to recover, shouting as he took to the air, summoning his supreme divine weapon and channeling his main divine power to attack the Group of Immortals Pavilion.
As a sword beam shot into the sky, a surge of fire-based divine power followed.
The twenty-some elders of the Lanbo family also snapped back to their senses, took to the air, and joined the attack.
In an instant, sword lights, knife glints, and axe shadows soared into the sky, as the powers of their respective gods illuminated the entire Lanbo City. Although the thirteen elders from the Lanbo family who went to attack the Mole Mountains were killed by the Yellow Dragon after that previous assault, weakening the family’s strength, it was still formidable. Among the twenty-some elders, including the head of the Lanbo family, there were three supreme warriors. With their full-power attacks, combined with the damaged defensive formations, their power was barely inferior to that of ordinary supreme gods. The panicked descendants of the Lanbo family, seeing their head and elders take action, calmed down somewhat. To many of them, even if their opponents were supreme gods, they were no longer to be feared. Yet soon, they were shocked to see their powerful head and elders tremble violently after colliding with the giant mountain and then fall even faster. “Bang, bang, bang!” As the head of the Lanbo family and the elders crashed to the ground, the loud impacts shattered the last hope in the hearts of the Lanbo family’s descendants. After they hit the ground, the surrounding ground cracked open, and everyone began spewing bloody saliva. Blood stained the ground around them. The head of the Lanbo family and the elders looked up at the sky in horror. They thought that with their combined full-power attacks and the defensive formations, they could at least withstand the giant mountain’s assault, but the outcome was completely beyond their expectations. After colliding with the Group of Immortals Pavilion, it shook and flew upward before attacking again. This time, the already damaged city defense formations could no longer withstand the attacks from the Group of Immortals Pavilion, which instantly collapsed, exposing Lanbo City completely to the Group of Immortals Pavilion. “Run!” Seeing this, the head of the Lanbo family realized that their attackers were too terrifying to resist and could only flee. If they stayed to defend Lanbo City, it would only lead to unnecessary sacrifices. As the head of the Lanbo family, the elders, and hundreds of millions of descendants fled, the Group of Immortals Pavilion finally launched another attack. With a deafening roar, the entire ground trembled violently. Dust and sand rose for miles around. By the time the Group of Immortals Pavilion returned to the Yellow Dragon’s hands, Lanbo City had vanished, reduced to piles of sand, with a huge square pit clearly carved into the earth. Half of the fleeing elders also fell into this massive pit. The head of the Lanbo family, the surviving elders, and the remaining descendants stared in horror at the city now reduced to sand. In the sky, the Yellow Dragon watched the several main god entities floating above the ground and, with a gesture of his hand, trapped them in the Five Prison Divine Cauldron.
The elders of Silver Fox Mountain looked at Yellow Dragon with even greater reverence in their eyes. They were aware of the power of the defensive array at the headquarters of a super-large family like the Lanbo Clan on the Kale Continent—it was set up jointly by Mori and the ancestors of other clans. Even if they intervened, it would be impossible for them to break through this defensive array so easily, let alone have it shattered under the full counterattack of the Lanbo Clan’s patriarch and elders.
Livia’s eyes also shone brightly.
After retracting the Group of Immortals Pavilion, Yellow Dragon turned to Livia and said, “Let’s go!”
Livia nodded.
Zerom originally wanted to step forward and deal a final blow since some of the Lanbo Clan’s patriarchs and elders were still alive, but seeing Yellow Dragon order them to leave, he had no choice but to stop.
As they left, Zerom exhaled a burst of dragon energy, creating a terrifying dust storm that swept across a vast area. Now, as a supreme divine powerhouse, even Zerom’s simplest act carried immense power.
The survivors of the Lanbo Clan, who had narrowly escaped, were shocked again by the terrifying dust storm and stared fearfully at the rogue dragon in the sky.
After a while, Yellow Dragon and the others disappeared from the sight of the Lanbo Clan members.
It took a long time before the Lanbo Clan’s patriarch, elders, and descendants realized they had escaped death’s grasp.
The patriarch looked at Lanbo City, now reduced to dust, and cried out in despair, “It’s over! The Lanbo Clan is ruined!” Although the Lanbo Clan still had Mori’s support, with thirteen elders dying in the Mor Mountains last time and nearly ten more dying this time, the clan would be completely removed from the ranks of super-large families and reduced to a first-rate clan! Without Mori’s backing, they might not even qualify as a first-rate clan.
“Patriarch, should we report this to the ancestor now?” asked one of the elders with a sad expression.
The patriarch snapped out of his daze and quickly sent a message to report to Mori.
At that moment, Mori was following Leo and the others to ambush Yellow Dragon. Suddenly, he received a message from the Lanbo Clan’s patriarch. After scanning it with his divine sense, his expression turned extremely grim.
“Mori, what’s the matter?” Leo asked, noticing Mori’s unusual state.
Mori recounted what had happened to the Lanbo Clan, then said angrily, “Yellow Dragon, that damned guy! He ignored his status and attacked Lanbo City. How hateful!”
Ignored his status? When they were in the Mor Mountains, hadn’t Leo, Opot, and the others also hesitated due to status when trying to kill Yellow Dragon?
Leo and Opot’s expressions became awkward.
“When did this happen?!” Leo asked coldly.
“Just now,” Mori replied hastily, not daring to express more anger.
“Let’s go!” Leo said, exchanging a glance with Opot before flying at full speed, with the others hurrying to follow.
It wasn’t long before they reached the Bluebo family’s headquarters. Upon arrival, the elders of Fengjin Mountain gasped in shock as they saw where Bluebo City used to be—a massive square pit. Even those accustomed to grand scenes were stunned. It wasn’t the destructive power that reduced Bluebo City to dust that shocked them, but rather the method of attack used by the Yellow Dragon.
Such a huge square pit could only have been created by some kind of divine artifact.
“Ancestor!” The Bluebo family’s patriarch, the elders, and the family members cried bitterly upon seeing Mori, and upon recognizing Leo, Opot, and the others, they bowed in surprise.
“Explain! What exactly happened?!” Mori demanded angrily, his face dark.
Although the Bluebo family’s patriarch had already sent a report earlier, it wasn’t detailed. Mori only knew that the Yellow Dragon had attacked Bluebo City. Hearing Mori’s furious outburst, the patriarch quickly recounted everything.
“A Sacred King Artifact the size of a mountain spanning thousands of miles!” The elders of Fengjin Mountain gasped again when they heard that Bluebo City had been destroyed by such a massive artifact.
Though Sacred King Artifacts could change size, there was still a limit. It was the first time they had heard of one that could reach the size of a mountain spanning thousands of miles. At the thought of that colossal artifact bringing destruction, the elders shuddered.
“I heard earlier that Theol of the Naitson family was killed by a huge golden mountain-shaped divine artifact of the Yellow Dragon. It seems this is true!” Leo frowned. He hadn’t expected the Yellow Dragon to possess such a powerful Sacred King Artifact aside from the World Tree and the Ancient Bell. From what the Bluebo family’s patriarch described, its power seemed even greater than that of the bottle capable of lightning attacks?!
Leo recalled the scene in the Mor Mountain Range when the Yellow Dragon summoned the Lightning Gathering Bottle to attack Kunni Road.
Hearing that nearly another ten elders had died, Mori, looking at the dozen or so elders kneeling before him, almost spat blood.
“If I don’t kill you, Yellow Dragon, I swear I’ll never be human again!” Mori gritted his teeth, hatred blazing in his eyes.
“Did they head north?” Opot asked.
“Yes, Lord Divine King!” the Bluebo family’s patriarch replied respectfully.
“They can’t have gone far. Let’s chase them!” Leo and Opot transformed into two streams of light and rushed north in pursuit.
