Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2217 - 679: Final Battle Countdown [5]

The Magdragon Emperor, with tears streaming down his face, turned away and couldn’t bear to watch any longer.

If his trembling shoulders could generate electricity, tonight the starry sky of the Demon World could definitely break free from the shackles of darkness.

"Stubborn bones indeed... all of you, get out of my way!" Six-winged Heavenly King Atest angrily shouted and drew his famed Demon World blade, the "Plymouth Sword."

The "Plymouth Sword" in the hands of the heavenly throne was the top blade produced by a famous craftsman of the Demon World seven thousand years ago. During its forging, a two-winged nightmare was sacrificed, and with every strike, indestructible elemental wings would shoot out from both sides of its edge, carrying both fire and psychic damage. It never returns to its sheath without drawing blood.

Without any suspense, under the heavenly king’s sword, the cursing voice of the superior Demon Dragon came to an abrupt halt.

A muscular and another graceful curved headless corpse collapsed softly onto the ground, limbs twitching.

The fountain-like sauce-purple dragon blood irrigated the intersecting rune grooves on the altar, flowing rapidly like mercury rivers, becoming the foundational power source for the entire arcane formation.

The obscure and lengthy chanting began to rise, casting an ominous dark hue over the earth and starry sky.

Ethereal roars, elusive weeping, lingered, ambled, and loitered around the altar, not dissipating for a long time.

"May this sacrifice be the last..." A crystalline tear trickled down from the left eye of the ancient crocodile king Piacenza, slowly sliding down its cheek.

This semi-solidified, resin-like amber tear was brought to the lips of the grieving Magdragon Emperor by the ancient crocodile king.

Countless envious gazes blossomed on the astonished face of the Magdragon Emperor.

"Your Majesty, you needn’t say more!" The ancient crocodile king Piacenza waved his hand, dismissing the Six-winged Heavenly King’s intent to counsel: "In truth, for nearly fifteen thousand years, all my cultivation has been in vain if not for occasionally gifting each Lich King a tear, appropriately lowering my elemental value. Facing the calamity of further advancement, I have no confidence to endure it! For me, as long as my power loss stays around six thousand years, it’s virtually no different from losing nothing."

"But a single tear from you represents a millennium of cultivation!" King Atest truly felt heartache over why this tear of the ancient crocodile king wasn’t given to him but to the Magdragon Emperor—he had little interest in delving into Piacenza’s self-deprecating consolation.

Frankly, the Silver-eyed Throne even somewhat despised the ancient crocodile king Piacenza.

If Atest possessed the intelligence and elemental capital of the ancient crocodile king, he would never fear such a trivial advancement calamity—didn’t that great traitor, True Martial Prince, endure the calamity without a hitch, thereby advancing to Saint Xiao?

The ancient crocodile king, as the guardian of the Demon World, actually relies on self-diminishing his cultivation to maintain a stable elemental value, avoiding the life-threatening risks of further advancement. Such behavior is simply the act of a despondent, complacent coward!

The ancient crocodile king Piacenza keenly sensed the emotional fluctuation of this throne but was unable to defend himself.

Super arcane beasts are innately gifted and unparalleled mainly due to their innate body arcane,

but it cannot be denied that once body arcane reaches a certain height, advancement becomes increasingly difficult. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Every super arcane beast famous in history has excelled in the world by cultivating arcane of other lineages, not by relying solely on body arcane. The ancient crocodile king Piacenza, with his extraordinary talent, never believed in this, but as time passed, he had to admit that specializing in one type of arcane is indeed a foolish act of stagnation.

Although specializing in one type of arcane can also cultivate an invincible ultimate move, compared to cultivating multi-line arcane, single-type arcane is nothing but a dead end.

Richard of the Aegean Continent can successfully advance to Saint Xiao because he doesn’t cultivate just one type of arcane, but rather multi-line arcane. As for the ancient crocodile king Piacenza, he has always cultivated only Luminal Arcane. How can the advancement calamity be generalized?

If I wanted to advance, I could have done so fifteen thousand years ago!

But what would be the point of that?

The "Eye of Otherworld Seal" can still hold its ground against the Holy Giant Dragon of Aegean, what meaning is there to risk life for another advancement?

The extraordinarily clever ancient crocodile king Piacenza has never acted irrationally!

The extended incantation holding by the two Lich Queens on the altar was nearing its end, and the dragon blood rolling in the rune grooves had turned into a purple mist, veiling and swirling around them. An elderly Black Obsidian Destroyer waved his wings, spreading a fiery red aura quickly linking them both.

At the center of the altar lay a doll engraved with complex symbols, into whose forehead dragon blood purple mist and silver-thread-like mental power fragments poured like a fountain.

This is the "Substitute Puppet"!

The Lich Kings’ ultimate skill to control subordinates!

With mental power as the constraint, and body and flesh as the medium, no one can resist!

Although True Martial Prince had once given Queen Jiabao a lock of hair and nails, the Lich Queen could never use the "Substitute Puppet" to control him, because that great traitor’s mental power hertz was an incredibly shocking height! More terrifying was, that was the height of his mental power hertz before he even advanced to Saint Xiao!
