Dragon Tamer

Chapter 566: Chapter 568: The Strength of the Family Door Leader
 

In the inner city of Absolute Ridge Chengbang, a man wearing a cloak of iridescent bird feathers stood atop a high tower. He was tall and slender with a dark complexion and divine eyes, but his pupils were as sharp and terrifying as those of a predatory eagle.

He raised his head, staring at the rebooted Airspace Thunder Realm, his face gradually contorting with ferocity and anger!

Someone actually dared to ascend through tribulation using Thunderwing! And to make matters worse, the Thunderwing Sky Seed had actually become the Life Seed of that ascending dragon, allowing it to manipulate and control it at will!

“I will flay it open, scatter its soul, and then extract its dragon heart!” the man roared, wielding a bird bone magic staff, and swung it toward the sky.

With that swing, the Snow Shirt Forest in the Upper Isolated Ridge suddenly erupted into chaos. Looking around, one could see Poisonous Demon Birds taking flight from the treetops!

These birds had majestic feathers, vibrant red beaks, and most terrifying were their formidable claws, which could easily uproot massive trees from the ground!

There were countless Poisonous Demon Birds, and they created whirlwinds through the mountains as they took to the sky, quickly ascending to confront the Azure Phoenix Dragon high above.

Beyond that, rock-bodied, mountain-sized Demon Dragons were also gathering. They clearly weren’t willing to give up their dominance of the high skies, ready to fight to the death with the Azure Phoenix Dragon!

Lightning crackled like eternal flames across the sky, thunder fell like torrential purple rain, and the firmament blazed with light. As Zhu Minglang and the Azure Phoenix Dragon reached the back ridges of Absolute Ridge Chengbang, they were met by countless Poisonous Demon Birds and Giant Ridge Demon Dragons. Yet no matter how numerous the birds or how strong the dragons, none could withstand the lashing of the lightning whips and the pounding of the thunderous pillars!

The Poisonous Demon Birds were split into blood in midair, their feathers falling like snow. The Azure Phoenix Dragon flew straight towards Absolute Ridge Chengbang, unstoppable by the birds. Any Poisonous Demon Bird that came close either turned to blood or vanished into nothingness, none survived!

The Giant Ridge Demon Dragons roared, the largest creatures of the sky, akin to floating fortresses, imposing and powerful. Their rock-like skin afforded them some resistance to the lightning, after all.

“Hiss!!!!!”

The Azure Phoenix Dragon raised its head, its green vertical pupils fixed on the vast cloudscape.

Suddenly, whirls appeared in the clouds, dispersing the mist, followed by earth-shattering lightning columns bombing down like apocalyptic pillars.

Such pillars of annihilation could reduce mountains to dust with their might, and as they struck the Giant Ridge Demon Dragons, they shattered them into countless pieces!!!!

The Giant Ridge Demon Dragons were no match at all!

The man controlling the Poisonous Demon Birds at the city tower looked utterly astonished. With his flock assembled, even a Dragon King could be torn to shreds, yet against the Azure Phoenix Dragon, his birds were as fragile as paper cranes, hundreds killed in one blow!

“My Giant Ridge Demon Dragons… My Giant Ridge Demon Dragons…” At the side of the tower stood a man in silver armor who was clearly a Dragon Shepherd. Those Giant Ridge Demon Dragons contesting for aerial supremacy were his Dragon Beasts.

But now, his face was purple, his body in convulsions. With every Giant Ridge Demon Dragon that perished, a thread of his Spirit Contract snapped. The agony of such rapid loss rendered him little more than a walking corpse.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Who is that person??” asked a man in the tower, his body exuding a ghostly aura, wearing a robe slung over one shoulder and bare-chested on the other side.

“Likely a Shepherd Venerable from the Purple Sect Clan.”

“To use Wing Thunder Heavenly Species for ascending tribulation, turning the Wing Thunder into their Thunder Realm, are all those you dispatched to guard the Airspace Thunder Realm at the peak useless?!” the man in the shoulder robe roared, filled with a ghostly fury.

“We must abandon the high-altitude battle; the heavenly thunder is too strong! Monarch Level dragons and below, if struck, will absolutely be reduced to ash.”

“Commander, we’ve intercepted the Cultivator troops ambushing us from the rear city; shall we annihilate them first?” an old man in a Master’s Robe asked.

“Four Greats, who else is on standby?” asked the ghostly Commander.

“The South Monarch, Peng Hu, is awaiting orders,” the old man in the Master’s Robe replied.

“The South Monarch, hmm, that’s a bit of an overqualification.”

“But if they flank us from the rear, we’ll be in a very passive position.”

“Then finish them off as fast as possible, and ideally, sever their heads and hang them from the high towers in the front city,” the ghostly Commander said.

“What about the Azure Phoenix Dragon King in the sky? If we don’t get rid of this Dragon King, I’m afraid we might end up at the bottom.”

“No rush, this Dragon King is currently in its prime. Recklessly provoking it might result in heavy losses. Let the people from Hidden Fog Island contain it first, preventing it from getting close to the chengbang,” said the commander, who emanated an eerie aura.

“Containment, I fear, is not such an easy task,” the elder in the Master’s Robe remarked.

The commander, the aura of a specter about him, did not reply, but his eyes swept over the colorfully robed sorcerer standing outside the building, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

It’s not easy, but that’s Hidden Fog Island’s concern. They lost control of their airspace. That Azure Dragon King should naturally be their problem to deal with!

…

Again, the sky darkened ominously, but this time not with mountains. Instead, from the depths of the Absolute Valley, a swarm of Red Spotted Poisonous Dragons emerged. They maneuvered through the poison barriers with ease, and as they flew in formation, they brought the toxic mists with them, enveloping the peaks. Some lower rank Dragon Beasts that inhaled the poison began to wobble and crashed to the ground.

The Red Spotted Poisonous Dragons were creatures even more terrifying than the Mosquito Dragon, despite their size of around three meters. Each of them had the power to slay a whole unit of soldiers.

The soldiers from Silver Ridge were engaged in a fierce battle with the Giant Ridge Generals when they suddenly saw hundreds of Red Spotted Poisonous Dragons appear from the Absolute Valley, and their faces turned pale with fear!

These poisonous dragons were originally intended to attack them, pushing the attacking army to a dead-end with no escape. If it were not for an Azure Phoenix Dragon dominating the skies above, who knows how many would have perished under the claws of the Poison Dragons.

“Who is that Azure Dragon Shepherd Venerable up there?” Emperor Wuhou, the elder of the Purple Sect Clan, and Zhou Xian of the Great Zhou Clan were standing on the spine of a War Scorpion Dragon.

To their left and right were the formidable two thousand crossbow armies. Any enemy that got close to them was shot down by the crossbowmen!

“Someone reported that it’s Zhu Minglang,” said a Divine and Mortal with eagle wings.

“Zhu… Zhu Minglang of Zhu Gate?” Zhou Xian thought he had misheard.

The Azure Phoenix Dragon that had turned the tide, dominating the airspace of Silver Ridge, was Zhu Minglang’s dragon?

At that moment, the youth, Mingji, still with some swelling on his face, turned his head to look at Zhou Xian and asked, “Didn’t you say that Zhu Minglang was nothing more than an insignificant Dragon Trainer?”

“Since when does Zhu Gate have such a powerful Shepherd Venerable?” said Emperor Wuhou, equally astonished.

If they were to win this battle, the one who reversed the situation in the sky would surely be the hero. Achieving this was not just a matter of high cultivation base; it also required the ability to control thunder…

At the beginning of the attack, thunder had struck down countless Dragon Beasts. Although no one in the ranks dared to speak of it, everyone suspected that Absolute Ridge Chengbang had the assistance of a Heavenly God. Otherwise, why would the thunder target only them?

Now, the situation had flipped entirely.

The thunder decimated the people of Absolute Ridge Chengbang. As soon as they dared to fly to a certain height, they were utterly obliterated, while the Dragon Beasts from Li Chuan had no restrictions, freely soaring and maneuvering in the air!

The morale was completely different from before, and the deadlock on assaulting Silver Ridge was thoroughly broken!

In a war, breaking the deadlock is crucial. Who was Zhu Minglang, who could single-handedly turn the tide of battle?

“Cough cough, that person is the sole heir of Zhu Gate,” someone spoke up.

“The sole heir of Zhu Gate? The son of Zhu Heavenly Officer?” Emperor Wuhou was even more taken aback.

Was it not a revered elder serving Zhu Gate?

Was this the strength of the leading clan among the Six Great Clans?

At that moment, Emperor Wuhou’s gaze involuntarily fell on Zhou Xian of the Great Zhou Clan.

Zhou Xian suddenly began to feel uncomfortable.

Emperor Wuhou’s look seemed to say: As the sole heir among the Six Great Clans, how come you, Zhou Xian, are so inconspicuous in this war?
