Chapter 382 -227: The Collapse of Heavenly Dragon City, The Eternal Dragon Gate_2
Chen Qing then nodded, “Avoid a head-on clash!”
After speaking, Chen Qing slashed through four Dragon Palace disciples blocking his way, leaving behind four sprays of fresh blood, before riding his Green Bull toward the city gate.
Looking back, he saw Hu Yao with a Demon Summoning Banner in hand, casting a scarlet divine light upon a Dragon Palace disciple, who immediately exploded into a mess of flesh.
The Demon Summoning Banner, truly a formidable power!
Currently, the Demon Summoning Banner should only be slightly weaker than the King Gu, its power far surpassing spirit Gu.
Seeing the Demon Summoning Banner’s enormous power, Chen Qing felt slightly reassured and rode the Green Bull through the narrow corridor.
The corridors of Heavenly Dragon City, lined with dense dragon scales, reinforced the city’s strength.
The dragon clan had reinforced it over generations, making Heavenly Dragon City one of the strongest fortresses in the Death Realm.
If adequately defended, even if Chen Qing entered, he would be overwhelmed by thousands of guards.
Moreover, the only external passage was at the gate; breaking the city would require dozens of bloody battles until the defenders were all dead, offering a chance to capture it.
To succeed in a siege, often several times the manpower was needed.
But this city, with only two or three hundred left, was no match for Chen Qing.
He could personally charge in without fear of capture.
If there were five or six hundred inside, Chen Qing wouldn’t act so brazenly.
Riding the Green Bull to the corridor in front of the city gate, Chen Qing casually slaughtered a reporting Dragon Palace disciple and continued killing.
At this moment, the corridor was packed, and the center of the battlefield by the gate was already a bloody river, with corpses piled up.
The fiercest clashes were here, as Chen Qing cut his way through. The Dragon Palace disciples noticed Chen Qing’s presence, “Damn, Qingxu is attacking from behind!”
“What should we do now?”
“The Dragon Palace is our ancestral court. Now that the general is defeated, we can only die with honor!”
“Fight to the death!”
Chen Qing felt a slight admiration for these Dragon Palace disciples’ spirit, but that was all.

Those stationed in Heavenly Dragon City must be Dragon Palace loyalists and hard to convince to surrender.
Thus, he had no choice but to kill them!
Chen Qing sat on the Green Bull, and Qing Shan immediately cast Cutting the Path to See Me, elevating Chen Qing’s martial art realm to a pseudo-Grandmaster Realm.
At the Grandmaster Realm, Chen Qing looked at the battlefield ahead, feeling everything slow down, and saw flaws everywhere on everyone.
Holding the Dragon Sparrow, he stabbed one person with the sword light as snow, wreaking havoc in the narrow corridor.
The Dragon Palace disciples he faced were mostly the wounded withdrawn from the front lines, entirely powerless against Chen Qing.
With a casual swing, Chen Qing could kill anyone.
Riding the Green Bull past, his sword light flashed, casting shadow after shadow, leaving a trail of shredded bodies behind him.
Having killed only thirty or forty people, Chen Qing already saw Lu Shenglong, who was remarkably fierce, charging into the array, scattering a group of Dragon Palace disciples with impact, his spear sending them flying.
Chen Qing slashed down a Dragon Palace disciple knocked by Lu Shenglong, watching as waves of Dragon Cavalry surged in, spears like a forest, Dragon Energy flooding, descending upon the Dragon Palace disciples.
Sounds of Protective Spirit Energy shattering echoed, as one by one, long spears pierced the chests of the Dragon Palace disciples, blood spraying.
Chen Qing finished off the last Dragon Palace disciple, stepping on the deeply yellow Dragon Blood, holding the Dragon Sparrow, pointing toward the city coldly, “Enter the city, leave no one behind!”
A large number of Dragon Cavalry charged into the city as screams rang out. Chen Qing rode the Green Bull forward slowly. As he reached the center of the city, countless Dragon Cavalry were chasing down Dragon Palace disciples everywhere.
Sheathing his sword, Chen Qing looked at Hu Yao lying in a pool of blood nearby, “How are you?”
Hu Yao replied, “Just some superficial wounds.”
Chen Qing nodded, “Rest and stabilize your mind quickly. I need to use the endless dragon bones of this city as sacrifices to open the Dragon Gate.”
Hu Yao exclaimed, “That’s wonderful!”
Chen Qing summoned a monkey, tossing it a pack of Pure Fire Burning Heart Tea, “Brew this tea and give it to your king!”
The monkey accepted the tea, took a gentle sniff, “Pure Fire Burning Heart Tea, thank you, Prince Wen. I’ll do it right away!”
Chen Qing took out paper and brush, using the Dragon Blood still flowing on the ground as ink, and began writing the sacrificial text to open the Dragon Gate.
[Disciple respectfully addresses Heaven and Earth, since the Dragon God descended, all beings prospered, and the Four Seas were at peace. However, after hundreds of thousands of years, the Dragon Blood is thin. Thus, the disciple offers four Dragon Balls and the bones of ten thousand dragons to open the Dragon Gate, to recreate the true dragon in the world…]
Having written four sacrificial texts, the sounds of killing gradually faded. Soon, Xuan Mang rode on Ao Huanxiu, respectfully presenting three Dragon Balls.
“Lord Wen, the Dragon Balls are obtained!”
Chen Qing nodded slightly, then said, “Think Tank, Wei Qingchen, Lu Shenglong, Xuan Mang, each of you use a pearl tray to carry a Dragon Ball to each corner of Heavenly Dragon City.”
“Then chant the sacrificial text, light the text, and place it on the Dragon Balls.”
“Dragon Cavalry, swiftly take the treasures from the treasury and withdraw from Heavenly Dragon City.”
“I will stay here to guard the way for my junior sister.”
“When everything is ready, I will release the Dragon Sparrow Sword as a signal. Once you see the Dragon Sparrow Sword, ignite the sacrificial text immediately.”
Everyone set off to fulfill the orders. Although they didn’t know the meaning of Chen Qing’s ritual, his current prestige meant they would not hesitate even if ordered to certain death, let alone these tasks.
All withdrew from Heavenly Dragon City. Chen Qing approached Hu Yao, picking up a teapot amid the corpses, poured a cup for himself, and drank it down.
The rising blood aura calmed his mind significantly.
After three full hours, Hu Yao finally opened her eyes, “I’m ready, senior brother!”
Chen Qing smiled, “Wipe the blood off your face.”
Hu Yao smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth, “Okay.”
Chen Qing said, “I’ll prepare to open the Dragon Gate now!”
Hu Yao nodded, “I’ve already fed what was needed to my Gu.”
Chen Qing immediately released the Dragon Sparrow Sword, sending it skyward. A streak of sword light tore through the sky.
The four at the city’s corners understood instantly, lighting the sacrificial texts and placing them in the pearl trays atop the Dragon Balls.
The Dragon Balls began to melt, unleashing infinite Dragon Energy from the trays, which flowed into the bones in Heavenly Dragon City and surged towards the city center.
Hu Yao also released the enormous dragon bone from her home, placing it on the ground, then opened her hands to reveal her Light Butterfly.
The Light Butterfly sensed the great transformation of heaven and earth, flying toward the massive dragon bone, into the dragon skull.
In the next moment, the colossal dragon bone began to move, its eyes aflame with black fire, glancing around.
Endless Dragon Energy mingled with dragon bones flowed in, causing the entire Heavenly Dragon City to collapse, transforming into a mountain of dragon bones.
The dragon bone mountain moved, gathering around the enormous dragon bone with the Light Butterfly. As more dragon bones and Dragon Energy merged, its color deepened.
Finally, the last piece of dragon bone fully integrated, and the colossal dragon bone had turned completely black.
From afar, Ao Huanxiu watched in shock, “The Black Dragon emerges!”
Among the dragon clan, the Black Dragon was the most noble, the only one that could claim kingship, its Dragon Power suppressing all dragon-blooded beings.
Chen Qing raised his head, witnessing the sky cracking. Amidst the myriad thunderbolts, a gigantic portal slowly appeared.
The Ancient Dragon Gate!
This gate, towering a thousand fathoms high and vast, was covered with dragon patterns. Its formidable Dragon Power suppressed the heavens and earth as if capable of obliterating everything.
Even Chen Qing, who could control the world, found himself unable to harness its powers here.
The heavens and earth at this location were subdued.
Chen Qing gazed at this Dragon Gate, suddenly sensing that his Void Gate seemed to be influenced as well.
There seemed to be an inexplicable link between the Void Gate and the Ancient Dragon Gate.
Chen Qing contemplated in silence, concealing the Void Gate within his dreams.
For this Dragon Gate was not yet his to claim.
He would wait until Hu Yao’s Light Butterfly successfully ascended to King Grade, and see if any opportunities arose then.
