Chapter 0220: Fierce Battle, Struggle for Power

After a moment of shock, everyone’s eyes burned with intensity.
Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out, followed by the furious roar of the Four-Winged Angel Tobid: “Zevi, how dare you attack from behind!”
Just moments earlier, while everyone was distracted by the blue sword, Zevi from the Leiyan Mansion had suddenly attacked Tobid.
However, Tobid reacted quickly, blocking Zevi’s attack with a counterstrike.
Tobid stepped back, staring at Zevi from the Leiyan Mansion with anger and surprise.
Zevi sneered at him, “You’re lucky to have dodged my attack. But in a moment, you won’t be so fortunate!”
Tobid was furious but remained silent this time. Instead, he moved closer to the Beast God Peter and the others.
The Sky-Devouring Python, as a guardian, had withdrawn from the conflict, leaving only three parties facing off.
The Yellow Dragon stood there, along with the Sea God Apton and others, watching coldly at both the Leiyan Mansion and Tobid from the Church.
The Leiyan Mansion and the Church also glared at each other.
But after Zevi’s attack, no one dared to act rashly again, and the situation became as silent as the surface of the Sea of Death.
Suddenly, the blue sword above the hall emitted a buzzing sound. Blue sword beams radiated from within the deep blue flames.
It seemed as though the flames were trying to trap it, as if it wanted to break free.
The strange behavior of the blue sword caught everyone off guard. Suddenly, the two Hell Demigods attacked.
FranFrancis and the other Hell Demigod charged at the Yellow Dragon.
“Death Divine Fire!”
As they attacked, greenish flames erupted all over their bodies. With those flames, the space above the hall seemed to melt away, turning the entire hall into a gloomy hellish realm.
Hell, one of the six supreme divine realms, was created by the God of Death.
Generally, the divine-powered warriors in Hell practiced the laws of death—but not all did. For example, the Sel family in Hell mostly practiced the laws of destruction, just like Zevi.
Seeing FranFrancis and the other Hell Demigod attacking, a killing intent flashed in the Yellow Dragon’s eyes. Its spirit emerged from within its body, and it roared loudly along with its physical form.
“Wind Extreme Explosion!”
The Yellow Dragon’s physical form and its spirit clashed together. With that strike, the space howled as fierce winds tore through, accompanied by explosive noises.
The Death Divine Fire dissipated amidst the violent winds and explosions.
FranFrancis and the other Hell Demigod were forced to retreat, while the Yellow Dragon and its spirit also kept moving back.

Franxis, the Hellish Demon God, stepped back in shock. In this grand hall, both of them clearly saw that the Yellow Dragon posed the greatest threat, so they had planned to join forces to kill the Yellow Dragon first and eliminate the biggest hazard. However, they had not anticipated the Yellow Dragon’s strength to be so much beyond their expectations.

Franxis and the Hellish Demon God took action, triggering a fierce battle. Those who had been observing the standoff also started fighting.

Yet, to Zevi of the Thunderflame Mansion, Eino of Dragon Island, and Alek the Half-Orc, extreme frustration set in as Neptune Apton, Phoenix Simp, Belin, Long Yi of the World Alliance, and the four-winged angel Tobid, along with the Beast God Peter, all attacked the three of them simultaneously. This meant seven people were surrounding Zevi and his companions.

Zevi’s group, which had originally been the strongest, suddenly found itself in peril.

Seeing this, Franxis and the Hellish Demon God were alarmed. Just as they were about to turn and rescue Zevi and his companions, suddenly, a figure flashed by—it was the Yellow Dragon’s physical form and its soul.

“Divine Thunder Shackles!”
“Purple Thunder Sky Blade!”

The Yellow Dragon’s physical form and soul launched simultaneous attacks, filling the entire hall with terrifying purplish-red lightning.

Franxis and the Hellish Demon God were shocked.

“Death Light Patterns!”

The two combined their forces for one strike. Within a sickly green light, strange patterns spread outward. These patterns, like the footsteps of death, caused the purplish-red lightning to dim and lose all its brilliance, eventually disappearing into the air.

Seeing this, the Yellow Dragon also quickly retreated.

As it retreated, the Yellow Dragon summoned the Five Directions Flags to protect its physical form and soul. Then, its physical form used the Immortal Binding Rope, while its soul used the Thunder Gathering Vessel. The Immortal Binding Rope transformed into a sea dragon that wrapped around the two opponents, while the Thunder Gathering Vessel stood in the air, pouring out a torrent of lightning.

Two months ago, the Yellow Dragon had stored hundreds of Thunderflame Golden Eagles from Dragon Island inside the Thunder Gathering Vessel. Now, its power was far greater than when the Sea Clan’s altar had destroyed the Dragon Clan’s Banai.

Under the continuous attacks from the Yellow Dragon’s magical artifacts, Franxis and the Hellish Demon God were momentarily overwhelmed.

Although the Immortal Binding Rope’s attack power wasn’t strong, it still caused them considerable trouble. Seeing this, the Yellow Dragon also summoned its Green Rainbow Sword.

“Great Yan Extinction Sword Formation!”

The Green Rainbow Sword appeared in the air, generating thousands of sword beams. These beams spun around, releasing intense energy, before rushing down at Franxis and the Hellish Demon God.

Zevi and the others, who were fighting nearby, were also forced to retreat due to the sword’s fierce beams.

And that wasn’t all. The Yellow Dragon then summoned its Sky-Piercing Umbrella.

As the Sky-Piercing Umbrella appeared, it covered the entire sky above the grand hall, enveloping the whole hall beneath it. Under the astonished gazes of everyone, the Primordial Map flew out from within the umbrella. Once unfolded, the Primordial Map emitted waves of ancient, primordial energy, transforming the entire scene of the hall—dense ancient trees, grass several meters tall, ferocious beasts roaming, and towering mountains. A year ago, the Church sent twelve angels, along with the greatest sinner, the Night Demon Booz, all of whom were trapped inside the Primordial Map and eventually killed by the Yellow Dragon. At that time, the Yellow Dragon was only at the advanced stage of spirit manifestation, but now he had reached the Tribulation stage. With the Primordial Map unfolded, even the Hellish Demons Fran andFrancis were trapped inside. “Where is this?” Zevi, who kept retreating under the combined attacks of the four-winged angel Tobid and the Sea God Apton, was shocked by what he saw around him. “An alternate dimension?!” The Beast God Peter and the others also guessed in shock. As powerful beings from the divine realm, they immediately realized this was another space, not an illusion. After trapping everyone, the Primordial Map produced a red-and-white mirror—the Yin-Yang Mirror. The mirror trembled as its red side faced Fran andFrancis. A red light flashed, causing them to feel dizzy. “What the hell is this?!” Fran andFrancis were filled with rage and fear. “The Sword of Death!” In a fit of fury, Fran conjured a giant sword several hundred feet long, formed from death energy, and slashed at the surrounding space. “Yellow Dragon, I’ve broken your alternate dimension! I’ll extract your soul to create worms of death, letting you suffer the ultimate torments of hell!” After Fran’s attack,Francis also took to the air and launched attacks at the Yin-Yang Mirror using thunder bottles, causing the space to shake. The primordial world created by the Primordial Map began to tremble. Although Fran andFrancis had been imprisoned for tens of thousands of years, the restrictions there had weakened their divine power significantly, yet their understanding of the laws of death remained. Like the Yellow Dragon, though their physical forms were gone, their spiritual essence persisted. What was lacking was divine power to sustain it, but their attacking strength was still far beyond that of ordinary lower gods. The Yellow Dragon was alarmed and quickly circulated his vital energy, infusing it with magic. The Primordial Map emitted more light, and the primordial world stabilized. At the same time, the Yellow Dragon summoned the Tomorrow Pearl, Thunder-Ringing Bell, Illusion Seal, and Purgatory Tower from above the Sky-Piercing Umbrella, coordinating their attacks against Fran andFrancis.

Tomorrow Pearl emitted white light energy, a force that could counteract the forces of death and darkness. When this light shone upon the deadly energy surrounding Francis and Fran, it caused ripples. The Thunderous Bell rang loudly, intimidating everyone’s mind. The Illusory Seal created shifting illusions. The Purgatory Tower sent flames rolling out, emitting flames of purgatory. Not only were Francis and Fran in a flurry of panic, but even Xavi and the others, who were originally under attack by the Sea God Apton and others, were affected, retreating constantly and trying to dodge, making their situation even more perilous. Suddenly, at that moment, a scream was heard as the Dragon Clan’s ancestor, Eino, spat blood and was flung backward. With the shock from the Thunderous Bell, Eino’s mind was intimidated, and Long Yi took this opportunity to punch him away. As Eino flew backward, Long Yi’s eyes flashed with fierce light: “Eino, did your dragon clan ever think they would face this day after killing my dragon people back then?!” With that, he rushed forward and struck Eino again. Dragon people?! Eino was filled with terror. Could Long Yi, the leader of the world alliance, actually be from the dragon people? At that time, Long Yi still hadn’t transformed into his dragon form, so Eino still didn’t know he was a dragon from the dragon people. But before Eino could finish thinking, he was hit again by Long Yi and flung backward once more. Although Xavi and the others saw this, they couldn’t intervene to save him. Not to mention saving Eino, they themselves were hoping that the Hellish Demons Francis and Fran would defeat the Yellow Dragon first and then come to rescue them. Roar! As Eino was severely injured by Long Yi and faced death, Xavi had no choice but to use the Sel family’s form evolution. Even after using this evolution, which greatly enhanced his strength, he still couldn’t withstand the attacks of the Four-Winged Angel Tobid and the Beast God Peter. Soon, he was in danger again. As for the half-orc Ale, he was in extreme peril under the attacks of the Sea God Apton, the Phoenix clan members Simp and Belin. If it weren’t for that low-grade offensive divine weapon, he would likely have been killed long ago. Suddenly, at that moment, the roars of the Hellish Demons Francis and Fran rang out: “Yellow Dragon, take our combined attack!” “Death Storm!” Seeing this, Francis and Fran both soared into the air, their bodies merging as they launched a single strike. Streams of light spun and flashed.
