"I don’t care what it is! I don’t care if it’s divine or not! All I know is that my enemy is Long Yi, and he’s handed this thing over to me, a thing from hell. If you can’t help me, get rid of this nuisance, I will lose! I know you only use me as a pawn to obtain your toys, but if your toy beats your pawn, you will never see it again!"

Yake shouted out loud in desperation.

"Huh?"

Before Rongka could answer, he uttered a sound of surprise.

For the Blood Leech that should have been curling up in the air was frantically devouring the hellish power surrounding it now!

Typically, a hellish Blood Leech would instinctively sense threats in its surroundings and hide itself thoroughly. Here, Rongka’s power was certainly the greatest threat, even Yake who was a Black Dragon was scared of the slightest hellish power. But the Blood Leech, that should be the most terrified, was recklessly devouring this infinite hellish power, and in a blink of an eye, its body grew bigger! Not only that, its body turned into two after a series of movements! Then the two new Blood Leeches continued to swallow Rongka’s hellish power.

"Your nature changed? Strange, what has changed you?" Rongka’s hellish power increased abruptly, and one of the Blood Leeches was disintegrated in an instant.

"This! It’s this power! Did they return!"

Rongka said surprisingly.

"What power? Who came back?"

Yake was puzzled.

"People I’ve been anticipating, it’s no concern of yours!" Yake retorted unusually.

"But how can I defeat Long Yi!"

"Defeat Long Yi...ha-ha-ha, I see! Want to win? I’ll help you exceptionally! If you are really driven to your wit’s end, if you genuinely have no chance to defeat the enemy, if Long Yi has come in front of you! Then put this Gate of Hell on the battlefield, open the Gate of Hell! Then my legion will descend directly into the Human Realm! I will assist you in defeating your adversary directly! Granting you the victory!"

Rongka seemed to be in a good mood, laughing at Yake.

"Really!?"

Yake was stunned in disbelief. He always found it hard to get help from Rongka. Rongka honoured him with some words he couldn’t understand, saying that he was bound by rules or had made a vow.

Yet now, he agreed to deploy his troops directly to help him?

No matter what the reasons, this is a sure-win!

"Of course! I am the eternal Emperor of Hell, Rongka! Should I even lie to someone insignificant like you?"

Although Rongka hadn’t given Yake a solution eventually, the look of worry on Yake’s face disappeared. When Tilian listened to Yake’s entire recount, he frowned.

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate. If we really open the Gate of Hell on the battlefield, once Rongka’s legion wins the victory, then this world might become a second Hell! Then, what will become of you and me?"

"Ha-ha-ha, you’re overthinking. What can Rongka do in the Human Realm? Besides, his legion is limited by the rules of this world, he won’t stay here too long, this world is still mine! Then wait in the rear, wait until the White Dragon Empire can no longer struggle, and then destroy the Gate of Hell directly. Losing the support of the Gate of Hell, the Hell Legion will soon be forced to return to Hell, then, what do we have to fear!"

Yake thought optimistically, not letting Tilian clarify anything. Tilian could only shake his head helplessly, sighing.

On the main battlefield, the Black Dragon Empire was still retreating continuously.

Yake had understood that it was meaningless to hide anything anymore.

The Ultimate Battle began.

The immense undead army spread on both sides of the border, and the huge Hell Furnace was slowly moving under the protection of several Dark Cloud Toads. Although these Dark Cloud Toads were infected, multiple protections for one toad was still impressive.

The White Dragon Empire, along with Molten Beasts and Red Dragon Knights, launched a roast attack.

All Lumberjack Crabs and Backplate Dragons were mobilized to deal with the Undead. Compared to the Black Dragon, the Undead army is a bigger problem.

Long Yi had already tapped into all of his military power, knowing that any concealment now meant failure. He wanted to kill these bastards at all costs!

Molten Beasts and Red Dragons formed the first wave of attack, roasting the enemies. The combat Golems, managed by Fine Gold Golem, formed the second wave, focusing on any fish that escaped the net. Meanwhile, Beetle Missiles and Heavy Light Cannons targeted the rear of the undead army for free bombing. There were undead everywhere, bombing random places would bring good results.

Long Yi, naturally, could not remain idle, Bajie’s giant figure appeared in the long-lost battlefield sky, the horrifying mana causing terrifying fluctuations. The sky was torn apart, meteors transformed into flaming rain falling from the sky, gashing burning craters on the ground.

Ai Lin moved around the battlefield. As a mage, she controlled many techniques unknown to the Dragon Clan. With her unprecedented mana, she managed to create a volcano underground behind the Undead army! As the magma and smoke gushed out, the ground was torn apart, the Undead fell screeching into the depths of the crevices and were swallowed by the lava.

Little Zi followed Ai Lin closely. As mages, they could maximize their power by pairing up, and Little Zi’s psychic magic could easily secure enough room for Ai Lin to cast spells!

At this time, Suolin and her Mount Dragon were not here but at the battlefield where Dragon Clan fought.

Actually, Long Yi intended Suolin to stay in the Green Dragon Empire to accompany her grandfather, the old Emperor. But soon, Suolin and her Mount Dragon returned to Long Yi’s camp.

She was driven back by Jim Green.

The old Emperor believed that no one in this world was free until the Black Dragon Empire was eradicated!

The Black Dragon Empire must be destroyed!

Staying in semi-human semi-dragon state for long years, Suolin and her dragon were extraordinarily close, their power nearly shared!

After she recovered to her normal state, Suolin’s dragon evolved into a new dragon species in a short period.

Fine Gold Dragon.

Originally a chameleon, it developed its body by going through a series of changes and enhancements. Ultimately, its body chose the most perfect ultimate evolution pathway, changing it completely into fine gold. This gave it an incredibly high defensive power, while also rendering it nearly immune to any magic. However, the consequence of this magic immunity is that it can’t unleash much power on its own.

In contrast to this, Suolin, is like a humanoid giant dragon. She can unleash all the power of her mount dragon, making this duo nearly unbeatable in the air!

Ruosha, on the other hand, seems to have nothing to do. Facing the Undead Army, she’s not quite up to it. Similarly, she is not well-suited for the Dragon Clan army, leaving her with some idle time.

Nim, the loyal follower of Long Yi, is extremely active. This Celestial Clan warrior had been holding back for a long time. Since joining Long Yi’s legion, he had been anticipating a chance to show off his abilities. He wanted to demonstrate to this giant that he was more than just a subordinate. Given an opportunity, he could take the lead and establish merit!

Now that Nim had unlocked his Light Wing, his powers were the most potent they had ever been. Neither curses nor plague could easily approach him. Concentrating the Power of Light into a spear, he brandished it while weaving through the undead, rendering them powerless with a single strike. He didn’t necessarily need to destroy the undead completely— as long as the Power of Light obliterated the dead breath within them, they would instantly lose all support and collapse.

This made him an enormously efficient undead slayer.

Despite tirelessly slaying, the number of undead was just too high. They would march unswervingly forward tirelessly, unaffected by pain or fear. Long Yi wouldn’t dare to use any living beings to assist in the attack. Once the plague infected anyone in his legion, the Undead Army would multiply exponentially. Moreover, the most frustrating part was the nine Hell Furnaces at the back of the sea of undead. While Long Yi’s missiles were continuously shattering the undead, the Hell Furnaces were reconstructing those incapacitated undead into new, more powerful forms. Thus, the situation turned into a deadlock, despite the Black Dragon Empire’s forces continually dwindling under White Dragon’s assault.

Finally, Long Yi lost his patience.

He had plenty of missiles all over the map! They only had nine Hell Furnaces; how could they bully him?

Even if they have the Hell Tree!

Even if they have the Dark Cloud Toad!

He didn’t believe they had as many missiles as he did!

In his fury, Long Yi made a decision that terrified everyone.

That afternoon, the battle was still at a standstill. But a chain of bright lights in the sky captured everyone’s attention.

Boom!

A Beetle Missile was ignited by the Dark Cloud Beetles, tearing through their cloud layer.

Boom!

Another missile detonated by an incoming beetle widened the breach further.

Next, the Hell Tree!

Balls of fire kept exploding, each Dragon Breath released by the blast getting absorbed.

However, the blast’s impact and wave opened up a gap bit by bit.

Eventually, the Hell Furnace got exposed!

The Hell Furnace shrieked terrifyingly, and voluminous undead flew out in an attempt to block the missiles while more tentacles entangled about.

With a series of explosions, two more missiles detonated. Meanwhile, a massive undead on the ground tried to pull the Hell Furnace away. But the incoming missile obliterated both the undead in the sky and the entangling tentacles!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Three Beetle Missiles hit the Hell Furnace all at once!

The furnace, under the frightening pressure, was completely torn apart. Hell’s power was leaking everywhere, and dark Hell sludge flowed out, polluting a large area of the land!

Then, the Hell Furnace exploded, flinging bits of Hell sludge all over. Some of the nearby undead who came in contact with the sludge instantly gained terrifying powers. They went into a frenzy, attacking and devouring the undead around them. Just like that, an internal chaos broke out among the undead!

No, it wasn’t a mutiny. It was just a one-sided massacre and devouring by those infected with the sludge!

This was exactly how the Hell Furnace worked—it dragged various undead into the furnace’s sludge, giving them a new will, letting them devour to grow stronger, and then releasing them.

And now, everything was out of control. All those undead infected with Hell sludge started devouring the undead around them en masse.

Watching the scene unfold, Long Yi suddenly smiled. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Excellent, this has unexpectedly helped us quite a bit."

These undead were proficient at devouring each other. They kept fusing into each other, morphing into atrocious monsters.

When there were no common undead left around, the sludge-infected undead began attacking and devouring each other.

Eventually, across the vast land, behind the overwhelming undead army, nine massive undead began their heavy march towards Long Yi.

Watching from afar, the corners of Long Yi’s mouth slightly curved upward.
