Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Shocked by the New Divine Realm Civilization
“`
Luo Shuang’s lower-tier clan members are the Fear Clawed Dragon Men, an exceptionally outstanding low-grade race. Not only is their combat power the strongest among the low-grade races, but their intelligence is also not low. Equipped with excellent gear, their overall strength is no less than some of the less combat-oriented medium races.
The advanced race is comprised of a large group of diminutive dwarfs, not exceeding ten thousand, each one clad in a magic robe, presumably most of them are casters.
Luo Shuang’s core combat race is the Violent Dragon People, a branch of the dinosaur folks, an extremely powerful high-grade race. Though they bear the name ‘dragon,’ they are not of the common Dragon Clan and have no connection with the Nine-faced Dragon God. They belong to the dinosaur species.
Though dinosaurs are also dragons, their combat power is much lesser than that of the Dragon Clan. They neither have Dragon Breath nor have any knowledge of Dragon Language Magic, possessing only a purely strong physique that can rival the Dragon Clan.
Therefore, the Violent Dragon People are also among the most formidable when it comes to martial prowess within the high-grade races and are one of the favorite races used by elite forces.
The appearance of the Violent Dragon People closely resembles that of Violent Dragons, but their size is much smaller, with a height of about three to four meters, a slender build, and more developed and agile forelimbs compared to Violent Dragons. They can wield weapons but are incapable of casting spells or using magical items. In other words, while possessing a physique and strength comparable to that of Dragon People, the Violent Dragon People are completely unable to harness the power of spells.
As soon as both sides met, they simultaneously stopped about ten kilometers apart, and priests or mages from both sides began buffing their allies. The Terrifying Dragons, imposing as mountains, crouched on the ground while a great number of Violent Dragon People and Fear Clawed Dragon Men climbed onto their bodies.
At a length of two hundred meters and height of eighty to ninety meters, they already resembled a small hill. What’s more, Luo Shuang had installed many platforms on them, making holes in the Terrifying Dragons’ wall-like tough skin akin to building houses and constructing combat platforms. Large numbers of Fear Clawed Dragon Men shooters or spear throwers, and even artillery, were loaded upon them. The enormous Terrifying Dragon had been artificially transformed into a man-made, moving fortress, a terrifying sight indeed.
Lin Xiao held his chin as he scrutinized the mobile war fortress for a while, ultimately abandoning any thoughts of a forceful attack.
It’s too big.
After conveying his intentions to Slarda, he crossed his arms and retreated to the side, appearing as though he was leaving matters to run their own course.
Luo Shuang laughed heartily and called out,
“What’s the matter, giving up?”
Lin Xiao chuckled and said,
“Do you really think that this cumbersome creature alone could win against me?”
Pointing at the many members of Luo Shuang’s clan, he said,
“You might have one big creature, but your clan’s strength doesn’t measure up to mine. Whether it’s the cannon fodder at the bottom, the core races, or even the higher-end races, none can surpass mine. How do you intend to fight me?”
The difference between Luo Shuang’s Fear Clawed Dragon Men and Small Fishmen was negligible, but the rest, whether the Dwarf Mages or the Violent Dragon People, could not compare with his Wise Goblins or the Shura Naga. One is a high-grade race, the other a sub-legendary race. The Shura Naga’s normal evolutionary limit is Rank 7, and now he had already accumulated more than sixty Rank 7 Shura Naga Knights, while the Violent Dragon People were only Rank 6; presently he had less than a thousand Rank 6 Violent Dragon People. With such a gap between species, it’s normally impossible for them to defeat his own clan given an equal number of individuals.
Unless Luo Shuang had some top-tier heirloom to close the gap, but the problem is he also possesses one top-tier heirloom as well as a Level 2 ancient treasure; in this respect, he doesn’t believe Luo Shuang could be stronger than himself.
Even if Luo Shuang were stronger, it would not be by much.
So…
However, upon hearing his words, Luo Shuang suddenly laughed loudly and said,
“Did you think I am considered one of the supreme elites on the Dominator’s sub-list merely because of these? Or do you think that the supreme elites on the Dominator’s list are only stronger than other elite races? That’s too naive.”
He stretched out his right hand and beckoned, the air in the palm of his hand twisted slowly, and then he extended it towards Lin Xiao. His expression became serious as he said in a deep voice,
“Every supreme elite listed on the Dominator’s list has a trump card that greatly surpasses other elites of our generation. Just like you, although I don’t know what your trump card is, I’m sure you have one—as do I, and so does Wu Zhonglin. Our combat power cannot be judged by conventional standards. As an equal-level opponent, I advise you to give your all later. If your trump card requires time to prepare, I’ll give you that time. What I need is a thrilling battle with an opponent who is evenly matched or even stronger than me, not just victory.”
Lin Xiao’s expression became increasingly serious with each word from Luo Shuang. By the end, his crossed arms had come down, and once Luo Shuang finished, Lin Xiao spoke earnestly,
“You are a very excellent opponent. As you wish, I will give it my all!”
“That’s for the best!”
With a solemn face, Lin Xiao returned above his own clan members, serious and somewhat anxious. Luo Shuang’s words struck him like thunder, awakening him. Had he become arrogant? To underestimate an opponent who is also a supreme elite on the Dominator’s list and think about holding back was truly getting ahead of himself.
“I must give it my all!”
Lin Xiao reviewed the status of all his clan members who were going into battle and then checked the extraordinary abilities on the Extraordinary Magic Network. Except for the unrelated foresight, the other four extraordinary abilities demanded high spiritual power from the clan members. Even possessing the 200% spiritual power enhancement from the high-grade ancient treasure, The Sword of the Prophet Zalank, the Small Fishmen did not have enough spiritual power to use any extraordinary ability aside from foresight.
“`
After all, these extraordinary abilities are just too powerful, and the spiritual power of such low-grade races as the Small Fishman is really not high, even the Fishman Magician is no exception.
Magicians rely on talent to cast spells, which aren’t greatly related to spiritual power. The spiritual power of a Fishman Magician is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary Small Fishman and does not possess the strong spiritual power of a Mage.
“It seems I only have this choice,” he said.
The sudden intense pressure made Lin Xiao very nervous. Not wanting to lose too disgracefully, he decided to go all in and pay with his own Divine Power in place of the Small Fishman’s spiritual power to use the extraordinary ability.
Just this once—for another time, he wouldn’t have enough stored Divine Power.
Of course, this was only limited to the Small Fishman. The spiritual power of the Wise Goblins and the Asura Naga was strong enough that each could use extraordinary abilities more than once—two times at the least and three to four times at the most. Particularly for those few hundred Wise Goblin Grand Magicians who had reached the Transcendent Level, their spiritual power was enough for them to use the ability ten times in one go with plenty to spare.
“Let’s begin!” he declared.
The enormous Terrifying Dragon Tribe, with feet as large as skyscrapers, charged hundreds of meters in one stride, shaking the ground like thunder. But Lin Xiao’s attention was completely focused on Luo Shuang, suspended high in the distance. He saw him raise his right hand as if holding something aloft. Within a hundred meters centered on him, the Void suddenly twisted and collapsed inward. As an invisible shockwave burst forth, Luo Shuang’s robe billowed with a whooshing sound, and the surrounding space collapsed like dominoes with each boom, soon forming a massive collapse and distortion over a kilometer in diameter.
“Boom!”
The Void, with its diameter of over a kilometer, exploded suddenly, and after the countless scattering fragments, a colossal and ferocious dragon head emerged from the depths of the shattered Void. Its pupils, like pillars, shot out from the crumbling Void, casting their gaze down. All of Luo Shuang’s Clan looked up and roared into the sky together, issuing a heart-palpitating chorus of howls.
Then, each Clan member, as if awakening some power within their bodies, started to twist, swell, and grow larger, their auras inflating like balloons.
The Covenant of the Pedigree of the Terrifying Dragon Tribe!
Upon seeing the enormous, ferocious dragon head appear from the Void, this piece of information naturally surfaced in the minds of everyone who witnessed it—they just knew.
This was an entity of great status within the Crystal Wall Universe dominated by the Terrifying Dragon Tribe, a fearsome being, the progenitor of the Dragon Clan. Luo Shuang had gained the favor of this grand being and signed a pact to borrow its power to strengthen both himself and his Clan.
“Such a mighty being, such a terrifying ability!” he exclaimed.
That founding member of the Terrifying Dragon Tribe put so much pressure on Lin Xiao that he quickly abandoned his decision to make all the Small Fishmen go Berserk. He needed to choose a different extraordinary ability.
“Then I’ll summon the Enhanced Water Element,” he decided.
As he made his decision, Luo Shuang’s Clan had already completed their transformations. Right beneath his eyes, each Fear Clawed Dragon Man rapidly swelled and took the shape of four-meter-long Fear Clawed Dragons, while the Violent Dragon People who were already three to four meters tall inflated even more grotesquely, directly reverting to become ten-meter-long Violent Dragons.
The transformation from Violent Dragon People to Violent Dragons elevated the power of Luo Shuang’s Clan by a large margin.
Rank 5 Violent Dragon People, once transformed, were comparable to Rank 6 Violent Dragons, and those originally Rank 6 had become as formidable as a Rank 7 Violent Dragon King. Not to mention that once the hundred thousand Fear Clawed Dragon Men all transformed into Fear Clawed Dragons, their average strength had already surpassed that of the Small Fishman.
“Indeed worthy of being a top prodigy to rank on the list of exceptional talents, he is just too strong. I must give it my all,” he mused.
With a thought from Lin Xiao, everyone from the Small Fishman to the Asura Naga began to cast spells to summon Elite Water Element.
The enemy was too strong, and he needed a host of Water Element to withstand their strongest assaults.
After summoning the power of the progenitor of the Terrifying Dragon Tribe, Luo Shuang saw this and scoffed:
“I need you to exert your full power. Where are your trump cards? Where is your killer move? A group of Fishmen casting spells together—is this your trump card? You disappoint me,” he said.
Disappointment wasn’t exclusive to him, as mostly everyone watching the battle showed expressions of letdown.
They had anticipated a clash of titans, but what unfolded left them hugely disappointed. Luo Shuang had played his trump card while Lin Xiao seemed to still be holding back, merely summoning elements. The collective spellcasting by a group of Fishmen—what could that possibly summon? To them, it seemed like a joke.
As the summoning was successful and a huge summoning Array took shape, the well-informed Luo Shuang recognized at a glance that this was for summoning Water Element and was even more disappointed. He snorted coldly:
“Do you really think that summoning some Water Element can stop me? Even if all your Clan could summon Water Element, that would still…”
As the gigantic summoning Array took shape and space twisted, one after another, giant Elite Water Element emerged from the summoning portal, their enormous size and powerful aura causing Luo Shuang’s face to change dramatically, rendering him speechless.
When over a hundred thousand Rank 7, over twenty meters tall Giant Elite Water Element emerged from the summoning Array, the entire plane grew silent for a moment.
