Chapter 1399: A World-Shaking Battle (10) (Grand Finale)
In the Outer Realm, at the Xianyang Demon City, outside the Afang Palace.
Originally, Xu Fu and the Creepy Old Men were having a pleasant battle. Well, the key point was that the Creepy Old Men were enjoying themselves, while Xu Fu was mostly being dominated after they joined the fray.
However, this wasn't the main point. The main point was that while they were battling joyfully and with great fervor, a terrifying aura erupted.
Immediately after, a figure enveloped in yellow light was thrown out of the Afang Palace.
Seeing that figure, the few who were fighting with great enthusiasm were taken aback.
"What's going on?"
On the other hand, when Xu Fu saw Lu Hai kong being dispatched, he thought that Old Qin had succeeded and a smile appeared on his face.
However, his smile didn't last long. Soon, he couldn't laugh anymore because the Afang Palace collapsed immediately after, and a Black Dragon, bound by iron chains, pounced out.
Seeing this, everyone present turned pale.
"Hey, kid, what did you do?" It had to be said that the Creepy Old Man knew Lu Hai kong very well, and he immediately realized that this was definitely related to Lu Hai kong. However, while the old man was questioning, there was a hint of relief in his tone.
Lu Hai kong's face stiffened, and he hurriedly denied it: "I thought of Emperor Qin's contributions to our Huaxia and wanted to persuade him to reform, but I didn't expect him to be so stubborn. Sigh..."
At that moment, Qin Shi Huang, who was trapped under the rubble, almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon hearing this!
The Creepy Old Man naturally knew that every word Lu Hai kong said was a lie, but this wasn't the time to argue. They had no time to waste.
After the Black Dragon burst out from under the Afang Palace, it finally took action. However, it didn't try to kill Lu Hai kong and the others, or rather, it didn't even consider them a threat. Its only goal was to break free from its bindings.
It let out a long roar, and a fierce dragon cry echoed. An invisible wave surged into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the thick black clouds above the Xianyang Demon City were shattered.
As the cloud layer was torn apart, a massive Whirlpool appeared, and all the demonic energy in the vicinity was sucked in.
"Kid, what are you standing there for? Go stop him!" The Creepy Old Man jumped up and shouted.
Lu Hai kong was dumbfounded: "You want me to go? I can't beat him!"
"Who else if not you? And how do you know you can't beat him? Don't forget you have the Emperor's Cauldron! That thing is meant to counter him!" Almost at the same time, Lu Hai kong heard a System prompt in his ear.
*Ring, the World-Destroying Black Dragon has appeared, triggering a mandatory task: Slay the Dragon!*
*Task Type: Final Task*
*Task Description: The root cause of the chaos in the Outer Realm has appeared. To protect the world's peace, you must slay it!*
*Task Reward: Level 1 System Control*
This task made Lu Hai kong freeze for a moment before he finally reacted. He looked at the System for a while, then a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The thing he had been waiting for finally appeared.
At this moment, Lu Hai kong finally asked a question he had already guessed the answer to: "Old man, was it you who brought me to this world?"
The Creepy Old Man, not expecting Lu Hai kong to suddenly ask this, was taken aback for a while before finally nodding: "Yes! To be precise, the System used my hands to summon you."
Hearing the answer he had expected, Lu Hai kong's lips curled slightly: "The real reason you brought me here was to deal with this Black Dragon, right? Due to some System rules, you can't act directly against it, nor can you provide too much help to the extraordinary beings in this world, so you brought me here, right?"
"Yes!" The Creepy Old Man nodded.
"I knew it. These past few decades have been too smooth for me. I could almost get anything I wanted. Others work hard to break 90, but I could easily break 100. It turns out I've had a cheat code from the beginning."
"You can't say that. Although we did provide you with significant assistance, you've also worked hard to get where you are today", the Creepy Old Man said, unusually serious.
"You gave me the best Martial Talent, and my Strength value skyrocketed effortlessly. You gave me the most powerful aura of a king, and the best civil and military advisors came to my aid. In such a situation, if I couldn't achieve what I have, wouldn't I be a complete failure?" Lu Hai kong shook his head.
The Creepy Old Man frowned, feeling a bit off: "What, now that you know the truth, you think everything was arranged by us and that you're just our pawn, so you're feeling depressed?"
"Depressed, not really, but I have one more question I want to confirm!"
As he spoke, Lu Hai kong walked towards the Black Dragon, which was roaring to the sky.
Creepy Old Man: "Are you going to ask if the world you're in is really a game world?"
"That question used to matter to me, but it doesn't anymore. I've lived here for over twenty years, with a wife, children, and my own kingdom. This is a real world to me." Lu Hai kong shook his head and continued walking towards the Black Dragon.
The lecherous old man furrowed his brow. "I still want to ask, is the loyalty of your civil and military officials due to your personal charisma, or because we are manipulating things behind the scenes?"
"That's not it. They are my subjects, and I am their king! I have never doubted this!" Lu Hai kong continued walking forward.
"Then what do you really want to ask?" The lecherous old man gave up.
At this moment, a smile of immense satisfaction appeared on Lu Hai kong's lips.
"What I want to ask is, from now on, will you and the system stay out of the way and let me have the final say in this world, in this land?"
As Lu Hai kong spoke, he completely ignored the lecherous old man, spreading his arms wide. The shadow of the Dai Wang Cauldron appeared behind him, and a terrifying aura surged from Lu Hai kong, reaching up to the sky.
When Lu Hai kong was speaking, the lecherous old man's face showed little change, but when Lu Hai kong's aura was unleashed, the old man was completely stunned.
Because the shocking aura Lu Hai kong displayed far exceeded his expectations, even surpassing the black dragon.
After that overwhelming aura surged forth, Lu Hai kong turned his head to look at the lecherous old man. "I need to retract one part of what I said earlier. It's about my martial talent. I once doubted whether my martial talent was given to me by you or if it was innate."
"At first, I thought it was the former, but later I realized it was innate."
As Lu Hai kong spoke, a shadow of his own form appeared behind him.
The moment it appeared, it shattered the vortex formed by the black dragon.
At the same time, Lu Hai kong pointed casually at the ground beneath the Afang Palace.
This seemingly effortless point sent a strong sense of danger enveloping the old Qin, who was hiding beneath the Afang Palace. He felt an overwhelming urge to flee.
But at that moment, he couldn't run. As Lu Hai kong's finger fell, the old Qin was instantly reduced to powder, and the Dragon Qi he had absorbed from dozens of emperors surged out.
The moment the Dragon Qi appeared, Lu Hai kong absorbed it, causing his aura to skyrocket.
But Lu Hai kong wasn't done yet. He snapped his fingers, and the Dai Wang Cauldron behind him began to vibrate violently. At the same time, the six Dai Wang Cauldrons hidden in the foreign realms also trembled.
As the six Dai Wang Cauldrons trembled, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Wen Chou, Yan Liang, Yue Ying, and Ma Chao, who had been guarding these cauldrons, took action. Each of them created a shadow of the Dai Wang Cauldron, shattering the six Dai Wang Cauldrons.
As the six Dai Wang Cauldrons were shattered, six beams of light shot out and flew toward Lu Hai kong, instantly being absorbed by the Dai Wang Cauldron.
At that moment, the Dai Wang Cauldron shone brightly, and Lu Hai kong's aura soared once more.
Lu Hai kong's aura, which was already at the level of a black dragon, now soared to an even more terrifying level. The black dragon, which had been fiercely trying to devour Lu Hai kong, became completely docile.
Only then did Lu Hai kong stop his actions. Interestingly, throughout the entire process, a purple cloud could be clearly seen swirling above his head.
Purple lightning surged wildly, as if trying to strike Lu Hai kong dead, but it never did. Only after Lu Hai kong completed his ascension did the purple cloud reluctantly depart.
After the purple cloud left, the lecherous old man was completely dumbfounded. He stared for a long time before a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"You deceived everyone. I thought your target in this counterattack on the foreign realms was Qin Shi Huang. I was even thinking about how you would lure the black dragon out after defeating Qin Shi Huang. I never expected that your target from the beginning was the system!"
"If I didn't follow your rhythm and if the black dragon didn't appear, the system would have definitely interfered if I chose to break through. So I had to take a gamble, and fortunately, I won, gaining the power to challenge the system." Lu Hai kong felt the new strength coursing through him and smiled.
At that moment, Lu Hai kong's smile was more relaxed than ever before, because from today on, he was free from the shackles above his head.
The lecherous old man looked at Lu Hai kong and could only sigh as he left.
Lu Hai kong watched the old man leave without making any move to stop him. There was no need, for from today on, the old man would just be a lecherous old man. Moreover, Lu Hai kong owed him a favor for his help, and for that, he wouldn't harm him.
However, Xu Fu wasn't so lucky. Despite realizing something was wrong and trying to escape, he didn't get far. Lu Hai kong turned and slapped him, shattering him instantly.
With the last troublemaker out of the way, Lu Hai kong's counterattack in the foreign realms was a perfect success.
And the story that began with a bandit came to an end!
