Chapter 281: Nine Dragons Suppressing the Demons, the World in Turmoil

A rumbling sound reverberated through the world. The surrounding stone pillars were all emitting pillars of light that shot into the sky.

The restriction had actually been activated when no one was close to it? What was going on?

However, it was not just the restriction that had been activated. On the floating island, the dark clouds in the sky slowly gathered together with lightning arcs, forming a black mass of vortexes. From time to time, lightning would strike. It was extremely shocking.

In an instant, the environment of this world changed. At the bottom of the floating island, a large number of demon beasts were roaring towards the sky, as if they were welcoming the birth of a ruler.

The roars of the demon beasts resounded throughout the world, and they even resonated with each other. They did not know when, but a gust of violent wind had already stirred up around them, and the entire world had already darkened.

Along with the sound of thunder, the restrictions around the floating island were completely activated. A light barrier that was like the sky rose up from the mysterious stone pillars, enveloping the floating island.

At the same time, along with the sound of thunder, the roar of a dragon resounded through the heavens and the earth. This time, it was no longer the same dragon roar from when Tang Shang had activated the restrictions previously.

Instead, a total of nine dragon’s roars were heard. Nine streaks of white light shot up into the sky from within the restriction. A huge amount of spirit energy gathered and transformed into numerous spirit energy dragons.

However, this spirit energy dragon did not intend to attack Su Yi and the others. Instead, it charged straight towards the floating island as if it was suppressing the island’s movements.

Within the floating island, the cracks on the huge crystal increased in number and grew larger. From time to time, lightning would fall from the sky and strike the surroundings of the crystal.

Nine huge spirit qi dragons surrounded the floating island, raising their heads and opening their huge mouths. The huge spirit qi dragons shot out terrifying spirit qi light pillars, shooting towards the huge crystal.

The huge crystal seemed to have been affected by the light pillars shot out by the nine dragons. The cracks stopped growing, and the wild wind between heaven and earth seemed to have calmed down a little.

The people who were watching the floating island from afar were confused. They did not even know what was on the floating island.

They had thought that there was some treasure on the floating island that had caused such a strange phenomenon. Who knew that it could activate the restrictive spells or suppress it?

“What exactly happened? Who knows? Who can tell me?” Xu Que was stunned by the sight of the nine dragons.

The power of the nine dragons was clearly beyond the foundation establishment stage. Even though they had all reached the great circle of the foundation establishment stage and had been holding back for decades or even hundreds of years, they were still like ants in the face of the pressure from the nine dragons’ breath.

Who would not panic if they were in his shoes?

The other elders were probably much calmer than Xu Que. However, their expressions were extremely grave. They knew that the thing that the nine dragons were suppressing was definitely not something good. It might even bring about a disaster.

Perhaps they should not have paid attention to the depths of the ruins in the first place?

Many of the elders were already regretting their decision. Why did they listen to Nie Dingtian’s words and come to the depths of the ruins? Now that they had not even found the treasures, and they had instead caused a heart-wrenching situation.

However, these people had forgotten that at that time, who had supported Old Master Nie’s idea with open arms? Now, they wanted to push all the blame onto Old Master Nie.

Just as everyone was silent, the floating island once again underwent a change. The crystal in the middle of the floating island seemed to be doing its best to resist the suppression of the nine dragons. A shockwave suddenly spread out, and a terrifying might was revealed.

A shockwave that could be seen with the naked eye actually exploded from the floating island. It was this shockwave that seemed to have triggered some sort of switch. The demon beasts below the floating island once again roared loudly.

Traces of blood qi turned into fine streams from the seven orifices of the demon beasts and gathered in the sky.

As the saying goes, a drop of water forms a river. Although the blood and qi of each demon beast were very little, there was a large number of demon beasts.

Over a thousand demon beasts in the late stage of the foundation establishment stage were offering their blood and qi as if they were offering sacrifices. How spectacular was this scene?

The blood and qi flood that gathered in the sky seemed to be pulled by something as it surged towards the huge crystal in the middle and west of the floating island.

The blood and qi flood flowed into the huge crystal and dyed the entire pure crystal blood red. Immediately, its aura erupted once again. The nine spirit qi dragons seemed to be unable to suppress it, and cracks began to appear on the blood-red crystal. However, this time, the cracks did not expand as quickly as before.

It was likely that the nine spirit qi dragons were still suppressing it. However, at this rate, the dark cracks would spread to the entire crystal sooner or later, and at that time, it was very likely that it would shatter.

At this time, the restriction seemed to be exerting its strength as well. The stone pillars that were carved with mysterious patterns began to slowly turn from blue to golden in color. At the same time, the nine spiritual qi dragons seemed to have been strengthened.

The originally light blue body actually slowly turned into a golden body under the influence of the restriction.

The supreme golden light flashed, and the power of the nine spiritual qi dragons increased again. The spiritual qi rainbow that was spat out from their mouths also became a little thicker.

The blood-colored crystal that was suppressed seemed to have been suppressed by the nine dragons again. It stopped the crack from spreading, and some of the cracks even began to slowly heal.

The wild wind that was stirred up between heaven and earth slowly stopped. The dark clouds that were covered all over seemed to have been illuminated by the light, and actually began to slowly disperse.

Could it be that all of these strange phenomena were about to be suppressed by the nine dragons?

How could it be possible? A hundred years, a thousand years, or even close to ten thousand years. They had prepared for such a long time just to see the light of day again. How could it end just like that?

The snow-colored crystal shook once again when the cracks were gradually repaired. Blood-red light waves rushed out. The demon beasts under the floating island stopped roaring. Everything became quiet.

If Su Yi and the rest were at the bottom of the floating island, they would be able to see that these demon beasts’ scarlet eyes were filled with determination to die.

For the birth of a king, they had to sacrifice their little lives.

Roar!!

A world-shaking demon beast roar could be heard. The demon beast’s roar was extremely loud, as if it was bidding farewell to this world.

These demon beasts reversed the spiritual power in their bodies one by one, exploding and dying one by one. This time, the blood and qi were not on the same scale as the last time.

The sacrifice of the lives of hundreds of thousands of demon beasts brought about a terrifying blood qi flood! No, it should be called a blood river now!

The blood essence of these demon beasts turned into a long river that soared into the sky, merging into the crystal.

Instantly, the world once again sank into a blood-red color. An endless, foul-smelling wind rose up, and the black, dense thunderclouds gathered once again.

Also, the nine golden spiritual qi dragons seemed to have been infected by the blood qi, and their bodies began to turn blood-red.
