Chapter 823: Tiamat's Destruction Divine Thunder
“Boom!”
Two colossal dragons collided once more, their impact unleashing a storm of thunderbolts and fire that ripped across the earth, spreading outward for thousands of meters.
At the moment of impact with the Red Dragon Emperor, Gorazdra experienced a sudden shift in her battle aura—her eyes widened with disbelief.
So terrifying… this fire…
It carried within it the divine edict of Order versus Chaos, Destruction and New Life. Its power essence was no less than her own Destruction Divine Thunder.
Yet, because Kai Xiusu had only recently ascended to Semi-God status, his foundation was far shallower than Gorazdra’s, who was a Quasi-God. In the clash of elemental energies, he remained at a disadvantage.
Kai Xiusu himself was stunned. This ancient Blue Dragon’s thunderbolt had managed to suppress him completely. The overwhelming bolts of lightning relentlessly consumed the space where his fire had once held dominion.
How could this be?
Once, in the northern realms, he had been known as the Lord of Thunderbolts and Flames.
But now, the very power that had once been his—Storm Giant’s Power—was utterly powerless against this Destruction Divine Thunder. He could feel the imprint of the Storm Giant trembling within his body, as if resisting its own legacy. He dared not even face the presence of this ancient foe directly.
A dazzling web of lightning wrapped around the Red Dragon Emperor, lashing at his dragon form again and again. His scales were scorched black, some even split open from the sheer force—his appearance, far from majestic, was one of utter disarray.
This old Blue Dragon is too deep in her roots. If I keep fighting her head-on, I’m finished. I must end this quickly—no time for delay!
Kai Xiusu roared in his mind, then swung his dragon wings and lunged forward, diving toward the Ancient Blue Dragon.
In the realm of melee combat, this red dragon—over eighty meters long, towering like a mountain—was invincible.
Battling through the storm of thunder like a crashing wave, Kai Xiusu seized the left wing of the Ancient Blue Dragon. Muscles bulged, veins stood out like ropes, and with a furious twist, he tore at it with all his might.
“Spines—!”
Gorazdra let out a long, agonized roar. Under the immense force, her wing membrane was ripped apart, her dragon wing shredded and torn, hot dragon blood gushing out.
But her immortality granted her a terrifying regenerative ability—her wounds visibly healed before the naked eye.
Seizing the moment, Kai Xiusu swung his wings again, soared into the sky, and opened his massive, blood-filled maw—brimming with flames—to bite down on the Ancient Blue Dragon’s neck. As he did, a torrent of scorching fire erupted from his throat.
“Damn abomination!” Gorazdra struggled fiercely, twisting her body wildly. Lightning gathered above her head, solidifying into a massive, radiant thunderbolt crown.
Facing the bite to her neck, her eyes glowed with deep, unnatural light, and she unleashed a series of powerful divine spells.
【Thunder Abyss】!
A fearsome vortex—like a monstrous maw—spread from the Ancient Blue Dragon’s body, swirling with deep blue energy. It engulfed hundreds of meters around her, swallowing everything in its path.
Kai Xiusu felt countless thunderbolts strike him like hammers. The force tore at his body, threatening to distort and rip open his very organs. He tried to flee, but the lightning felt like chains, binding him in place, locking him in place.
In an instant, he abandoned the idea of breaking free. Instead, he returned to his true roots—his identity as a Dragon Mage—and unleashed a flood of arcane energy from within.
【Enhanced Casting】
【Instant Casting】
Tenth-Ring Dragon Spell — Eternal Freedom!
With a sudden flare, Kai Xiusu spread his wings, his body glowing faintly purple. In a single breath, he broke free from the Thunder Abyss, transforming into a crimson afterimage that shot through the storm of lightning, ascending with breathtaking speed.
“You think you can trap me? You’re still so far behind, pitiful Blue Dragon slave!” Kai Xiusu roared, his mouth opening wide as a torrent of dragon flame poured down like a raging inferno, consuming everything in its path—reducing all to ash.
Gorazdra folded her wings, gathering the lightning around her into a shield hundreds of meters wide, dazzling and blinding. It held firm against the torrent of fire. She let out a low, thunderous roar, her voice crackling with lightning.
“Foolish hybrid! I am the Chosen One of Queen Tiamat—the future leader among the Five-Colored Dragon Divinities! Had you been born a century later, you would have knelt before me!”
With a sudden, violent motion, her scarred wing unfurled. The dragon flame from the Red Dragon Emperor was shattered by the storm of thunder. She raised her head high, and from her vast divine horns, a terrifying energy spilled forth—so powerful, so ancient, that Kai Xiusu felt an eerie familiarity in its core.
Darkness… evil… destruction…
It was the essence of Tiamat’s divine power—the most lethal aspect of her five heads: the Blue Dragon’s breath.
In an instant, the dark clouds above cleared. Lightning erupted from her horns like a flood, blindingly bright, so intense it threatened to blind the eyes of any mortal.
【Tiamat’s Disintegration Lightning】!
“Boom!”
“Witness the might of the Deity. Repent for your blasphemy—this is your final chance, Kai Xiusu. For you shall be utterly destroyed!”
Gorazdra’s voice echoed across the sky, thunderous and triumphant.
Where her Destruction Divine Thunder passed, all things were reduced to ash. Even the moisture in the air was torn apart into its most fundamental particles.
Without hesitation, Kai Xiusu cast upon himself 【Greater Armor Classceleration Spell】, 【Aerial Maneuverability】, and Graceful as a Dragon in Flight, all in one motion. With a single flick of his wings, he transformed into a crimson afterimage, fleeing at an absurd speed.
This is near-True God level—no matter how strong I am now as a Semi-God, with an immortal body, taking this head-on would cost me dearly.
Gorazdra was momentarily shocked by the sudden burst of speed from the Red Dragon Emperor. But she quickly recovered, directing her Destruction Divine Thunder in pursuit, roaring in fury:
“It’s useless, hybrid! Stop your futile struggle! This is the cost of desecrating the gods!”
The lightning flood pursued relentlessly, like a shadow. Kai Xiusu darted through the storm, weaving through millions of lightning bolts, evading with impossible precision—until he plunged into the thick, dark clouds.
“You think hiding in mist will save you?” Gorazdra sneered. She fired several lightning bolts into the clouds, and instantly, the thick darkness dissipated.
In battles of legendary magnitude, such concealment meant nothing—especially not for an Ancient Blue Dragon, who was the very heart of storms, the master of the heavens.
The Red Dragon reappeared, fleeing in panic. The disintegration lightning tore through everything in its path, closing the distance with terrifying speed.
Gorazdra laughed wildly, her storm-filled pupils ablaze with cruel delight.
“Kai Xiusu! You know you envy me! I am Tiamat’s chosen offspring—the future god of this world! While you… are nothing but a monster cast out by the Five-Colored Dragon race!”
“Gorazdra, stop deluding yourself! Is your so-called ascension to divinity really just becoming Tiamat’s avatar?” Kai Xiusu shot back, even as he fled.
Furious beyond words, Gorazdra roared, “Lies! Insanity!”
But her eyes quickly betrayed a glimmer of triumph. “Kai Xiusu… you’re already doomed. You’re about to become wandering spirits beneath my thunder. Arguing with you is meaningless!”
“Boom!”
A deafening explosion shook the sky. The lightning flood swallowed the Red Dragon’s form. The full might of Destruction Divine Thunder unleashed—shattering all matter, reducing everything to ash.
With Kai Xiusu’s death, a massive explosion erupted in the sky—flames flared, heat waves surged outward, scorching the air and sweeping across the heavens.
Yet Gorazdra felt a sudden shift in her emotions. Her frown deepened. No joy, no euphoria—only unease.
Something’s wrong… this is too unnatural.
An Emperor of the Ashen Flame, over eighty meters long, should have triggered a cataclysmic explosion. The surrounding climate and sky should have been utterly transformed—his body, like a miniature star, contained energy that could trigger volcanic eruptions, turn the land into an ash wasteland, or even cause massive droughts across thousands of miles.
But this aftermath—so quiet, so effortless—filled her with dread. She felt lost, uncertain.
If this wasn’t Kai Xiusu… then where is the real Emperor of the Ashen Flame?
“Looking for me?”
The voice sent chills down her spine, echoing from afar. Gorazdra spun around.
There—over a kilometer away—stood the Red Dragon Emperor. His chest bore fine cracks of fire, his dragon crystal blazing with intense light. His throat pulsed with power so immense it made the world tremble.
The one who had died was merely a high-level simulacrum of fire. The true Emperor of the Ashen Flame had long been hidden behind the Ancient Blue Dragon, gathering his breath.
“Boom—”
A vacuum imploded in the air. Within a hundred meters, all moisture vanished instantly. The extreme heat distorted the air. The Red Dragon Emperor now looked like a living sun, emitting light stretching ten thousand zhang.
His breath—fused with Chaos Flame, Order Flame, Ancestral Dragon’s Primordial Fire, and Sun God Power—ripped open the sky’s veil, scattering dark clouds and storms. It surged forward like a tidal wave of divine wrath.
“You can’t defeat a deity, hybrid!” Gorazdra roared, raising her head high, her voice shattering the sky.
Her massive divine horns erupted with more lightning—converging, intensifying, forming a regiment of dazzling blue lightning spheres. The dark clouds vanished. The sky turned pitch black. The world seemed to fall into silence—deathly still.
Then, in the heavens, the lightning unfurled, weaving into a vast, destructive net. Blinding light poured forth, illuminating the gloomy sky, turning the earth pale as snow.
“Boom—”
Thunderous roars split the sky. The world trembled. The Destruction Divine Thunder poured from the Ancient Blue Dragon’s mouth like a flood—lightning like silver serpents writhed through the air, crossing and weaving in chaos.
Though unprepared, and with far less time to charge than Kai Xiusu, Gorazdra’s lightning breath was still overwhelmingly powerful—capable of shattering mountains and splitting the earth.
But she faced Kai Xiusu’s all-out, fully charged breath.
The two breaths collided.
In the sky, a massive sphere, over a hundred meters in diameter, erupted—its surface a chaotic swirl of red and blue. Beyond it, thunder and fire spiraled in a vortex capable of rending all existence. The storm raged around it, spreading rapidly across sky and earth.
Lightning cracked. Flames flew.
In the explosion’s wake, all life was extinguished. Mountains cracked apart. All living creatures with survival instinct fled in terror. Only the two dragons, masters of incomparable might, remained within the blast zone—pouring every ounce of power into their clash.
“Divine Battle… This is a true Divine Battle! I’ve never witnessed a spell clash of this magnitude!” A high-level mage stared upward, eyes wide with awe.
Adrian’s face was grim, stunned. The battle exceeded all imagination. The sun-wheel etched into his pupils reflected disbelief.
He whispered, “Is this the strength of dragons? By Amanata, why do such beings exist in the Material Plane? Their very existence defies nature. Just by being, they bring endless disaster.”
At that moment, the Ancient Gold Dragon Dionysius—once a majestic beast—had transformed into a middle-aged man in a luxurious robe, wearing a monocle. He gazed at the two dragons in the sky and sighed.
“Indeed, the greatest of the dragonkind possess world-destroying power. But when uncontrolled, such strength brings only ruin. Our Metal Dragons spend our entire lives learning to master our power—to use it for the good of the world, to shoulder the responsibility of being truly powerful beings. But… these Five-Colored Sinister Dragons don’t understand that. They recklessly wield their strength, greedily plundering everything they see—until they meet their inevitable, tragic end.”
Misha watched the battle with tense focus, then added coldly: “You speak of Tiamat’s followers. His Majesty is always merciful. He only destroys those who dare defy him with his supreme might.”
Dionysius sighed, nodding reluctantly. “Of course… King Kai Xiusu is a rare exception among the Five-Colored Dragons. He cannot be compared to them.”
A high-ranking officer from the Tower Liro stared at the Ancient Blue Dragon, her silhouette barely visible through the storm of lightning. Fear filled her eyes.
“If the Thunder Tyrant wins… it’s all over. Gorazdra is the cruelest and most tyrannical of the three pillars of the Dragon Worship Cult. She will unleash frenzied lightning, killing everyone!”
Adrian remained silent for a long time, then whispered, “Our last hope… may King Kai Xiusu emerge victorious. May he return in triumph.”
A high-level mage raised his staff toward the sky, shouting in shock: “It seems… the outcome is about to be decided!”
Now, thunder and fire surged through the sky, churning and clashing. The long stalemate ended. The two titans exchanged blows, their power shaking the very fabric of space.
Then—Sudden Transformation!
