Heaven, Earth, Me-Chapter 1208. [Draco’s Descent]
Chapter 1208 - 1208. [Draco's Descent]
Both gods looked at the new arrival with squinted eyes. Tai Yang looked at her with curiosity and spoke with a smirk. "So, she is our supposed 'daughter.' I guess I should say that her strength is as expected, being our descendant."
The Moon Goddess spoke to Soluna with a smile. "Child, come to us. You don't need to fight in this battle."
Soluna stood by Yasenia's dragon head. Her size was like a speck of dust compared to a human. However, the aura pulsing from her made it impossible for people to ignore her. Once she heard the Moon Goddess' words, Soluna glanced over indifferently. "Are you the bastard god that's been bothering Yasenia during her tribulations? You are lucky that my control over my energy is too amateurish to burn your souls, or I would've made you disappear."
Change'er squinted for a second, her silver-colored dragon eyes glancing at Soluna closely. "You are named Soluna, aren't you?"
Yasenia interrupted. "Hey." The gargantuan dragon looked at them menacingly, her voice accompanied by a low and threatening growl. "She is mine. If you dare try to tempt or influence her through any strange means, I won't stop at destroying both of you. Your entire legacy will disappear from this universe as I will burn everything down to ashes."
Both of them looked at Yasenia, and Tai Yang smiled. "Haven't you forgotten something?"
Yasenia looked where the [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier] had been standing still and saw nothing there. However, she wasn't flustered. It was impossible that she would've completely ignored one of, if not the most threatening being she had ever fought. With a ripple of energy that enveloped thousands of kilometers around her, Yasenia's ethereal voice echoed in the vacuum of space.
"[Heavenly Firmament Sanctuary]."
The faces of both gods froze for a moment. 'How has she learned that skill?! That should be impossible before understanding an Intent Domain!'
As the ripple expanded from her body, Yasenia could feel the [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier] rushing at her from below relative to her position. The Soldier's sword phantom, several kilometers in length, streaked through the dark emptiness around them, creating a crackling lightning trail that made space wobble.
Yasenia moved her body, enveloping her tail with many of her buffs, and her tail that could make mountains crumble lashed against the massive sword.
BOOM!
The strength of the collision sent her massive tail blasting backward, while the sword also bounced. Still, the Soldier's ridiculous strength allowed it to resist Yasenia's raw power, and it moved the repelled sword once more. Soluna moved at this time, rushing down to meet with it.
"[Myriad Worlds Celestial Twilight]."
Soluna extended her hand, and a flaming blue, golden, and white sword materialized, not losing in size to the [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier]'s white phantom sword.
An explosion shook the void as both weapons clashed. Soluna faintly frowned as the power of the Tribulation Soldier was transmitted to her arms, which made her retreat several hundred meters. 'Yasenia has been exchanging blows with this monster this entire time?'
As she observed the [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier], bewildered, it didn't lose a single second and flew past her toward Yasenia. The dragoness enveloped her body with [Celestial Assimilation], [Ursa's Grasp], and [Internal Celestial Cosmos Ignition], and she began using her [Grand Cosmos Martial Art] with her dragon body.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Both of them exchanged blows at a terrifying speed for creatures their size, moving across the void like two streaks of light. Soluna observed their battle with awe on her face. 'Yasenia is truly... spectacular.'
Tai Yang asked, confused. "Are you not going to help?"
Soluna didn't answer. Instead, she observed the battle closely. She was slowly getting her sight used to their speed and movements. As she analyzed everything while holding a much smaller flaming sword, Soluna's body seemed to enter a state of calmness.
"[One With The Cosmos]."
Her presence expanded, easily enveloping millions of kilometers around her thanks to the lack of obstacles. One With The Cosmos, a skill that simulated an Intent Domain, allowed Soluna to increase her control over Sun, Moon, Star, and Celestial attributes around her.
Moreover, with [Heavenly Firmament Sanctuary] affecting the influence of the Tribulation Soldier and Heaven, the skill was deployed with a few times its usual strength.
The Tribulation Soldier flinched and looked back. Soluna was pointing at it with a single finger, her body burning with silvery, golden, white, and cosmic blue flames. Then, the cosmic elements manifested in the form of formless projectiles, piercing through the void in the thousands.
The [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier]'s body tensed for a moment as it seemingly took a deep breath, and then, it blurred.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
All beams that arrived at basically the same time dispersed a second later, leaving an unscathed Tribulation Soldier. However, Soluna's face didn't change, remaining aloof. She extended her arms, and the number of beams started increasing.
5,000... 9,000... 17,000... 25,000...
The Tribulation Soldier parried everything, its white sword creating something similar to a starry dome around it due to its sheer speed and the countless paths it followed. After five seconds, seemingly accustomed to the ever-increasing projectiles, it found a ridiculously faint gap between the countless attacks and took a step.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
After four perfect instant parries, it was outside the death zone, preparing to rush at Soluna in the next moment. However, when it was about to charge, it swiftly turned around in a defensive position.
"[Celestial Dragon Breath]!"
BOOOM!!!!
Yasenia had been charging this skill the whole time, and a beam of pure celestial light strong enough to blow up a small moon consumed it. However, she was not done. After the Celestial Dragon Breath ended, Yasenia flapped her sky-shrouding wings and reeled back one of her arms.
"[Shattering The Heavens]!"
Her punch compressed the very fabric of reality in the lower heaven and streaked forward like a shooting star. The [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier], slightly injured from Yasenia's Dragon Breath, barely had any time to gather itself before a fist the size of a hill descended onto it.
BOOOM!!!!
Yasenia's face was cold and ruthless as she felt her fist strike the small but incredibly durable Tribulation Soldier. The energy and force behind her strongest punch were transmitted to the soldier. Time seemed to stop briefly before Yasenia carried through with her punch. "DIE!"
The Tribulation Soldier shot into the distance, crashing against a rogue meteor in space the size of a large island. Even then, the meteor instantly exploded, unable to stop the momentum the Tribulation Soldier carried.
Yasenia frowned as she looked at the Heavenly Tribulation clouds and the two gods. Seeing the gods look into the distance with nonchalant expressions, her heart was heavy. 'Not even that combination is able to defeat it?'
Tai Yang sighed and looked at Yasenia. "It's useless. Your attacks are certainly strong. I don't deny that. Still, the extent of your strength is barely that of an average First Level Transcendence Realm cultivator. As I said before, the Tribulation Soldier has the strength of an [Intent Domain] bearer.
As soon as he finished his words, the black space in the distance burst with multicolored lights.
RUMBLE!
The [World Destroying Tribulation Soldier] was heavily damaged. However, its cracked armor was recovering, and the light around it and its sword had not diminished in the slightest.
Yasenia chewed her lip, trying to think of a way to overcome this situation. 'Do I try invoking the Sixth Sky of the Heavenly Constellation Steps? However, the chance of failure is high. Unlike Aquarius' Rain, it needs 46 stars to be summoned. Each additional star is exponentially difficult to link. So, a difference of 8 stars is nothing to scoff at.'
Still, that was one of her last options before she needed to resort to more desperate measures. Taking a deep breath and filling her lungs with the energy of the cosmos, Yasenia relaxed her dragon body and took a single step.
Her foot landed, producing a large star below her foot. Then, following the sneaking path of the Draco Constellation, Yasenia continued moving. However, she didn't stop after placing down the usual 17 stars to produce the original Draco Constellation. Instead, she flapped her wings, pushing herself from the head of the Draco Constellation to the middle point. Once she landed, Yasenia moved sideways, her steps careful and precise, and she created a wing-like shape made of 14 stars.
The Tribulation Soldier's aura condensed once more into itself after recovering from the damage Yasenia's punch carrying [Shattering The Heavens] carried. It grabbed its longsword tightly and pushed against the void.
Whoosh!!
Meanwhile, Yasenia was on her 44th step, her face filled with tension as she ignored the incoming threat. After taking one more step, the white lines connecting the other forty-four stars trembled for a moment. 'It's going to fail!'
Soluna shouted. "I'll keep it in check! Finish your skill, Yasenia!"
Yasenia stabilized the forty-fifth star, hearing the clashing sounds of both powerful beings in the distance. 'Now, the last star.'
Yasenia's face turned serious, her draconic body slowly stepping toward the center of the constellation drawn by her steps. As her body's energy strained to maintain the forty-five connected stars, she finally decided to take that last step.
'Please...'
Her draconic foot heavily stepped down right in the middle, and her Dragon Aura soared. "WORK!"
BOOM!
The forty-six stars were connected to each other by white lines that pulled tight, trembling together. It felt as if they were going to snap at any moment and create a powerful backlash. However, at that moment, Yasenia's [Celestial Energy Star] and [Black Hole Energy Core] poured ridiculous amounts of energy into the constellation.
Yasenia felt her body weaken, her body almost slumping down as energy poured into the Heavenly Constellation Steps. The vibrations that had been constantly increasing suddenly disappeared, and the white lines pulled tight with a melodious cling until they were perfectly still.
Yasenia's mouth arched with a wild grin as her body exploded with violent Star Energy. Her scales changed to a pure white, and her eyes shone with the mystery of the starry sky.
"[Heavenly Constellation Steps..." freewёbnoνel.com
Her wings spread widely, and her voice rumbled through the fabric of reality.
"...Sixth Sky..."
Energy poured out of the constellation seemingly without end and pierced into the void above Yasenia. Then, the technique manifested.
"...Draco's Descent]!"
The stillness of the cosmos was shattered as a massive roar burst out like a celestial explosion.
ROAARRR!!!!!!
The gods and everyone looking at Yasenia's tribulation froze and looked "up."
The seemingly formless cosmos above Yasenia slowly morphed as the winged Draco Constellation sank into the space around it. The ridiculous amounts of Star Energy manipulated the void and unfurled it.
From the void, a being that dwarfed even Yasenia's Dragon form manifested. It was a winged eastern dragon with a transparent body made out of the starry cosmos. Like Yasenia's dragon form, it looked like a patch of the night sky turned dragon. However, there was an extra feeling of translucency. The eyes of the dragon, black voids filled with two spiraling galaxies, looked like they contained part of the universe within them.
On the ground, Mirrory's eyes widened. "Since when did the Heavenly Constellation Steps have this effect? Draco's Descent is supposed to give the strength of a dragon to the user, not summon... that thing!"
"Do you know what it is?" Evelyn asked, her mouth somewhat dry when looking at that dragon. Even when she had reached the Sixth Realm and gained terrifying strength through her inheritance and unlocked bloodline, that Cosmic Dragon felt sincerely terrifying.
Mirrory spoke solemnly. "That's... the phantom of [Primordial Constellation Dragon Draco], one of the strongest beings that has ever existed. If its main body attacked those two asshole gods in their prime, it would only need a few slaps to send them to the afterlife!"
The girls shuddered and glanced at the two gods. Their calm face had finally crumbled, and they were looking at the shadow of the Primordial Dragon with widened eyes.
Meanwhile, the Tribulation Soldier felt a strange sense of danger, and it quickly used a powerful attack to blast Soluna away, focusing its sight on [Draco].
Yasenia panted a few times, trying to recover her breath from the terrifying amount of energy this skill sucked out. Her draconic face looked exhausted, but her golden eyes shone resolutely. She ordered coldly. "[Draco], destroy it."
The [Primordial Constellation Dragon Draco] answered the call of the [Empyrean Cosmos Dragon] and roared, making the universe quake under its roar's deep and rumbling sound.
