Chapter 994: Chapter 461: The Filth Beneath the Observatory, The Eternal Rank of Ancient Dragon_3

[At this moment, it truly resembled the mighty ancient dragon that wielded golden lightning and harsh laws!]

[Stars twinkled around you as you cast ’Star Realm Shift’ to slip into the void, successfully evading the enemy’s spear of lightning.]

[When you reappeared, you were already behind the ’Ancestor of the Law’!]

[You extended your hand towards the enemy, unleashing the destructive power of ’Dark Star Corrosion’ with all your might once more!]

[Faced with such a formidable magic attack, the ’Ancestor of the Law’ did not dodge or avoid it, but instead spread its arms wide as if to embrace it...]

[Subsequently, it was once again obliterated by your devastating magic, reduced to chunks of flesh and sprays of blood.]

[The mocking laughter of the ’Ancestor of the Law’ echoed through the cavernous space...]

[Futile! The all-knowing Evil God may have sealed the Ancient Dragon Power, leaving the dragons with only Demigod level strength, but their ’True God Rank’ cannot be changed.]

[Do you know what ’True God Rank’ means?]

[It is the true ’Eternity’ that transcends ’Immortality’; it’s the eternal existence that doesn’t die or diminish unless it willingly abandons ’Eternity.’ It’s impossible for you to kill it!]

[Having said that, the scattered flesh and blood began rolling and reassembling...]

[Your eyes narrowed sharply, and you immediately utilized the Flesh Authority to prevent the ’Ancestor of the Law’s’ resurrection...]

[However, your control over the Flesh Authority was far too weak to affect ’Eternity.’]

[In the blink of an eye, the pieces of corpse and blood reformed into the semblance of a blonde man...]

[You and Rona exchanged a look, seeing the gravity in each other’s eyes.]

[Together, you could easily kill the ’Ancestor of the Law,’ but you could not prevent the resurrection of its ’Eternal’ nature.]

[A dreadful prediction came to mind — could it be that the revival granted by the ’Eternal’ rank was without cost and limitless?]

[If that were true, the end would be either your retreat and escape or being worn down to death here by the ’Ancestor of the Law.’]

[You took a deep breath; it wasn’t time to give up just yet!]

[Rona saw the determination in your eyes and understood your thoughts. She raised her magic wand and attacked once more...]

[...]

No matter how he and Rona attacked, even when they unleashed their most powerful moves and vaporized the body of the ’Ancestor of the Law,’ it could still revive itself immediately thanks to its ’Eternal’ rank.

And with each obliteration, the ’Ancestor of the Law,’ now visibly angered, abandoned its human form to fight and revealed its true ancient dragon form.

In its ancient dragon form, the ’Ancestor of the Law’ experienced a massive increase in both offensive and defensive powers.

It became much more difficult for him and Rona to kill the ’Ancestor of the Law,’ requiring multiple releases of their most powerful magic just to slay it once.

Their magical energy was being rapidly depleted, with their mana bars significantly diminished in no time.

In Lin Xun’s Shell inventory were several top-tier Demigod Shells, so he wasn’t worried about running out of mana; after depleting one Shell, he could switch to another and maintain peak combat capacity.

But Rona would be in danger after her mana was exhausted...

Thinking of this, Lin Xun remembered an item in his inventory that could be very useful at this time.

[...]

[You pulled out a vial gleaming with starlight and tossed it to Rona at your side.]

[Rona caught the ’Elixir of Star Sea Origin,’ her eyes lighting up before she unhesitatingly tipped her head back and swallowed it.]

[’Elixir of Star Sea Origin’ (Item): ...Upon consuming this elixir, any Star Magic Skills you cast that are no higher than Mythical+ level will not deplete your spiritual energy for a short duration.]

This item was looted from the Polar Star Association branch (Chapter 412) and effectively gave unlimited mana for a period of time after its use.

With the ’Elixir of Star Sea Origin’ consumed, Rona no longer held back her magic power. She became a veritable magic artillery, picking powerful Star Magic Skills to use without worrying about mana consumption.

With Rona’s power fully unleashed, Lin Xun switched from leading the offense to support, merely needing to occasionally launch a few spells to deal extra damage.

[...]

[Rona suddenly took two steps back, came to your side, and said gravely, Seventeen times! We have killed the ’Ancestor of the Law’ a total of seventeen times! The speed of its revival remains unchanged from the first death, and there has been no weakening in its strength after each resurrection.]

[If this continues, the one who will end up exhausted to death won’t be the ’Ancestor of the Law’; we must think of another way.]

[She signaled for you to take the front for a while before stepping back a few paces, raising a ’Twilight of the Stars’ to protect herself.]

[As instructed, you resumed the lead, bombarding the magnificent golden ancient dragon relentlessly...]

[Behind you, ’Rona’ was surrounded by a dense array of symbols, clearly using ’Analysis Power.’]

[This time, the number of symbols that appeared around her was vast, twinkling persistently, indicating a seeming difficulty in analysis far greater than before.]

[As the analysis dragged on, the symbols increased in number and density...]

[She wasn’t analyzing a Demigod level ’Ancestor of the Law,’ but rather the method to erode ’Eternity’ itself!]

[As you continued to unleash spells, an awful premonition suddenly dawned on you...]

[You immediately turned your head to look at Rona...]

[At that moment, an extreme pressure burst forth from her as the epicenter!]

[The numerous twinkling symbols around her drew closer, converged, overlapped, and finally transformed into an exceedingly complex and profound symbol, which imprinted itself on Rona’s forehead...]

[You found the symbol vaguely familiar; you remembered it as the emblem of the Knowledge Servant of God, identical to the one on the chest of the Knowledge god servant’s robe and the summoning symbols used to call you.]

[Rona’s eyes snapped open, her words deliberate, Only ’Eternity’ can erase ’Eternity’!]

[But, ’Ancestor of the Law,’ it seems you’ve forgotten that four ancient dragon ancestors here also possess ’Eternal Rank’!]

[Rona’s gaze turned ice-cold, devoid of even a trace of warmth or emotion, looking down at any form of life as if they were mere ants, a look you had become very familiar with since you had just experienced it not long ago.]

[This was the sign of ascending from Mythical to Immortal...]

[Rona, having used ’Analysis Power’ multiple times, ultimately attained Immortal Deity on the most grievous path...]

[She had become a deity doomed to be eroded by Chaos!]
