Chapter 89: Shocking conspiracy!
Timothy landed with a thud outside the royal chambers, feeling like his butt had split into eight pieces.
Just then, Azura happened to be nearby.
"Weren't you discussing the origins of life with the goddess? How did you get kicked out of her chambers?" Azura asked, puzzled as she looked at Timothy.
"You don't need to worry about that. Even though it's also a form of Goddess Sylvia's love, it's not something a kid like you would understand," Timothy grumbled as he painfully stood up.
Azura fell silent, deep in thought for a moment. "I might not get it, but I'll remember that. When we get back to the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon, maybe I can show you some of that love too."
"Kids these days, always up to no good," Timothy sighed, playfully tapping her on the head.
"But it should be soon," Timothy said, his gaze sharpening as he looked up at the sky.
It was time to settle his score with Holy Emperor Thunderflame.
Suddenly, an immense oppressive force burst forth from within the chambers.
This divine might was so terrifying that it even affected the weather patterns.
Dark clouds slowly gathered above Goddess Sylvia's chambers, with thunder rumbling ominously, like a fierce beast ready to pounce.
A deadly aura instantly spread across the entire Sky Sanctuary, palpably radiating outwards.
At that moment, every disciple and elder in Sky Sanctuary felt this terrifying presence.
It was the pressure from Goddess Sylvia!
"What on earth is happening?" Everyone was utterly astonished as they looked up at the gloomy sky.
Sylvia's figure slowly floated into the sky.
Though her appearance was cold and stunningly beautiful, she exuded an undeniable authority of a Holy Emperor that no one dared defy.
Everyone who looked up felt a deep reverence.
Her icy gaze swept over Sky Sanctuary, and with each word she spoke, her divine authority was evident: "Holy Emperor Thunderflame has coveted Sky Sanctuary for over a hundred years, even conspiring with two other Holy Emperors to destroy it.
Now, I have learned that Holy Emperor Thunderflame is likely to lead an attack on the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
This is a perfect opportunity.
The crimes he committed a century ago must now be paid for.
Send the order: all disciples and elders with over 80% Mystic Core strength must follow me immediately.
The rest must stay and defend their positions,all twelve Star Palaces are to enter defensive mode!
Today, we must slay Holy Emperor Thunderflame at the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon!"
Sylvia's words, though few, struck like thunder, sending Sky Sanctuary into an uproar.
The moment had finally arrived!
Everyone was pumped and excited.
They had long remembered the three Holy Emperors' siege on Sky Sanctuary, but never imagined they would witness this day.
Led personally by the goddess, this was the moment to truly settle scores with Holy Emperor Thunderflame!
"For Sky Sanctuary!"
"Even if it costs us our lives, we must slay Holy Emperor Thunderflame!"
"Goddess Sylvia's command is our direction,we fight for our goddess!"
"The century-old grudge will finally be avenged, even if it costs me my old life, I will severely wound Holy Emperor Thunderflame!"
Shouts rang out continuously, everyone's eyes blazing with intense heat and anger.
The time had come to settle the long-standing feud between Sky Sanctuary and Holy Emperor Thunderflame!
Dark clouds swirled, and figures flew up into the sky, all following closely behind Sylvia.
Their destination: the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon!
"Goddess Sylvia, let me lead the charge," Timothy declared, flying ahead of everyone.
...
At the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
"Old King Aurelian has emerged!"
After Azura was lured out of the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon and captured, the forces of Thunderflame Valley swiftly invaded the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
Despite a fierce battle and the full resistance of many dragon elders and guards of the dragon clan,
the strongest combatant of the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon was in seclusion, and the strength of Thunderflame Valley, along with their bizarrely powerful lightning magic, overwhelmed them.
Even at the cost of their lives, they stood no chance.
The Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon was a scene of carnage, strewn with ruins and countless brutal corpses.
Just then, a mighty dragon's aura surged skyward.
Old King Aurelian had finally emerged from seclusion!
"How dare you attack my Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon and kidnap my daughter! None of you from Thunderflame Valley will leave here alive today!"
Emerging from his seclusion, Aurelian had now stepped into the Transcendence Realm.
Another Emperor-level powerhouse, and one with the bloodline of dragons!
With Aurelian's arrival, the tide of battle quickly turned.
A single Transcendence Realm warrior could change the course of the fight with his power alone!
The monks from Thunderflame Valley, caught off guard, tried to retreat quickly but it was too late.
Countless were instantly annihilated, and even several elders from Ocean's Gate couldn't escape in time, crushed by a mere flick of Aurelian's hand.
The dragon clan erupted in cheers,with the Old King out, the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon could finally hold its ground!
"A Transcendence Realm Dragon King? I've been waiting for this moment of your emergence!"
Just then, as if a voice descended from the heavens, a commanding tone echoed throughout the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
"Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique!"
Above in the sky, a thunderbolt exploded with infinite might.
It seemed like a world-destroying thunder that pierced through the deep sea, turning into millions of thunderbolts raining down.
Old King Aurelian, shocked, looked around and realized that this endless lightning had formed an indestructible cage, trapping him firmly within.
"Boom."
A single thunderbolt split from the rest, striking his dragon body and charring it like burnt coal.
"Puh."
Aurelian spat out a mouthful of blood, his mind reeling.
"Holy Emperor Thunderflame!"
Having just stepped into the Transcendence Realm, he hadn't fully absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and didn't truly possess the strength of the Transcendence Realm yet.
The thunder cage trapping him was clearly formed by numerous formations, crafted by several powerful beings working together.
Even Holy Emperor Thunderflame, as a Holy Emperor, couldn't have created it alone.
They clearly had premeditated this, and moreover, they had deliberately waited for him to step into the Transcendence Realm!
What exactly was their purpose?
Behind this, there likely lay a shocking conspiracy!
"Crack."
Aurelian tried to break the cage, but the moment his fingers touched the lightning, they were instantly charred.
This cage, possibly crafted by multiple Holy Emperors with great effort and premeditation, was not something he could break now.
In an instant, not just Aurelian, but a wave of despair and fear spread throughout the entire Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
This battle was not a coincidence,Thunderflame Valley had planned this all along, even intending to destroy the entire Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.
Even the Old King, who had just emerged from seclusion, had completely lost his ability to fight. The Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon was now truly in dire straits!
