Chapter 148 Seven Dragons Combined to Confront the Abyss Lord!
Chapter 148 Seven Dragons Combined to Confront the Abyss Lord!
The makeshift command center in the Amazon rainforest was filled with jubilation.
Reports of victory kept pouring in from various war zones, sweeping away the previous atmosphere of despair. Soldiers and Xuanmen disciples embraced each other, celebrating this hard-won victory.
Su Muyue stood in front of the large screen, looking at the cities that had been recaptured one by one on the map, a happy smile on her face. But in her heart, there was still a trace of unease.
She knew these victories were only temporary. The true enemy, the Lord of the Abyss, had not yet made his move.
Sure enough, her premonition soon came true.
"Warning! Warning! An abnormal energy fluctuation has occurred in the Amazon channel! The intensity exceeds the sum of all previous records!"
The piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the entire base.
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all looked at the big screen.
On the screen, a massive black vortex appeared at the location of the Amazon passage. The vortex continued to expand, and black demonic energy surged forth like a volcanic eruption, blotting out the sky.
The entire Amazon plain began to shake violently, and huge fissures opened up in the earth, from which countless streams of magma gushed forth.
"Oh no! The Lord of the Abyss is about to descend!" Su Muyue's expression changed drastically. She immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, "Attention everyone! Enter the third line of defense immediately! Activate the highest level of the Hundred Herbs Barrier!"
Before the words were finished, a huge black hand suddenly emerged from the black vortex.
This palm, covering an area spanning dozens of kilometers, blotted out the sky. With a gentle slap, the allied forces' first line of defense vanished instantly. Tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery were all reduced to scrap metal. Tens of thousands of soldiers didn't even have time to scream before disappearing into the black demonic energy.
"No--!"
Su Muyue's eyes were bloodshot, and her hands were clenched into fists.
"Hahaha! Insignificant humans, your end has come!"
A boastful laugh came from the vortex.
The figure of the Lord of the Abyss slowly emerged from the vortex.
He stood a thousand meters tall, his entire body covered in black armor, and his face adorned with a hideous demon mask. His eyes were pure black, without a trace of white, radiating a chilling pressure that sent shivers down one's spine. Just his presence alone made everyone feel breathless, as if they might be crushed at any moment.
"I am Samael, the Lord of the Abyss."
His voice was like rolling thunder, resounding throughout the world.
"From this day forward, this world belongs to me!"
He raised his hand and gently waved it towards the second line of defense.
A black demonic flame appeared out of thin air and swept towards the defensive line. This demonic flame could incinerate everything, even distorting and deforming space itself.
"The Barrier of Herbs, activate!"
Su Muyue shouted and formed a hand seal.
All the herb barriers around the world lit up simultaneously, and countless green vines sprouted from the ground, forming a huge green barrier that blocked the demonic flames.
"Sizzle—!"
The demonic flames burned against the green barrier, producing a piercing sound. The barrier trembled violently, its surface bubbling incessantly, on the verge of being burned through.
"Hang in there! Let's all hang in there!"
Su Muyue gritted her teeth and poured all her strength into the barrier. The disciples of the Hundred Herbs Sect also joined in, continuously reinforcing the barrier.
But the power of the Lord of the Abyss is simply too great.
Within seconds, the green barrier was covered with numerous cracks.
"Snap!"
The barrier shattered, and the demonic flames continued to sweep towards the third line of defense.
"It's over..."
Everyone closed their eyes in despair.
At this critical moment, a golden light flew in from the horizon like a shooting star.
"Lord of the Abyss, your opponent is me!"
Lu Jingchen's voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
He held the Dragon's Lair Jade Pendant in his hand, with seven golden dragon hearts swirling around him on his back, radiating dazzling light. On his way to the Amazon, he had already received six dragon hearts from other war zones, and now he had collected all seven!
"Lu Jingchen!"
Su Muyue was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes.
The Lord of the Abyss looked at Lu Jingchen, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "I didn't expect you to have collected all seven dragon hearts. Interesting. However, even with all seven, you are no match for me. The last dragon heart is within me; without it, you will never be able to defeat me."
"Is that so?" Lu Jingchen's lips curled into a mocking smile. "Then I'll dig it out of your body!"
He formed a hand seal, and the seven dragon hearts instantly merged together, forming a golden longsword.
This sword is formed entirely from the power of a true dragon, with ancient dragon patterns engraved on its blade, exuding a sacred and powerful aura.
It is the very sword mentioned in the master's inscription—the True Dragon Sword!
"The True Dragon Sword?" The Lord of the Abyss's expression changed. "I didn't expect that old bastard Lu Xuanfeng to leave you the method for forging the True Dragon Sword. But so what if you have the True Dragon Sword? Today I'll turn you and that sword to ashes!"
He suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out a black, world-destroying demonic flame. This flame was more than a hundred times stronger than the previous one, and everything in its path turned to nothingness.
"Well done!"
Lu Jingchen shouted, gripping the True Dragon Sword tightly with both hands and raising it high.
"True Dragon Slash!"
A golden sword aura, ten thousand feet long, cleaved out from the sword, carrying a world-destroying power, and met the world-destroying demonic flames.
"Boom!"
The golden sword energy collided with the black demonic flames, producing a deafening roar.
The entire Amazon plain was shaking violently, and the sky was torn in two. One half was golden light, and the other half was black demonic energy, colliding fiercely.
"Impossible! How could I possibly lose to you!"
The Lord of the Abyss frantically increased his power, and the black demonic flames became even more turbulent.
However, Lu Jingchen's golden sword energy was like a sharp blade cutting through waves, gradually suppressing the demonic flames.
"ah--!"
Lu Jingchen roared and increased his strength once again.
The golden sword energy surged violently, instantly cleaving through the world-destroying demonic flames and slashing towards the Lord of the Abyss.
"No--!"
The Lord of the Abyss let out a terrified scream.
He quickly raised his arms to defend himself.
"Snap!"
The golden sword energy struck his arm, severing it completely. Black demonic blood gushed out, spilling onto the ground and corroding large holes in the earth.
"You actually injured me!" The Lord of the Abyss clutched his severed arm, his eyes filled with disbelief and rage. "I will kill you! I will destroy this world completely!"
The demonic energy emanating from him surged wildly, turning the entire sky pure black.
"Everyone, listen to my command!" Lu Jingchen raised the True Dragon Sword and shouted, "Global coalition, full-scale counterattack!"
"Charge!"
"Kill them!"
The global coalition, which had been poised for action, surged out from all lines of defense like a tidal wave.
Helian Ba led the disciples of the Helian family, charging at the forefront, wielding his long sword with unstoppable force; Elder Qingfeng and the knights of the Holy See fought side by side, their golden holy light purifying all evil; the Onmyoji of the Abe family summoned their shikigami and engaged in fierce battles with the demon soldiers; the disciples of the Hundred Herbs Sect continuously healed the wounded and reinforced the barrier from the rear.
Former enemies have now become comrades-in-arms fighting side by side.
With everyone prepared to die, they engaged in a final battle against the Abyss Legion in order to protect their homeland.
Lu Jingchen looked at the charging allied forces, then at the enraged Lord of the Abyss, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"Samael, today is your end."
"This war, which has lasted for five thousand years, should end."
