Chapter 100: When time comes, heaven and earth all work together
Zhong Ming felt as if he had returned to that dream.
That dream I had after reading the jade slip that recorded the story of two dragons walking on water.
A colossal dragon stretched across the sky, its might overwhelming all directions. The heavens were cleaved in two by its body, and pure white flames burned on its sharp claws, making its scales gleam.
This time, Zhong Ming watched it underwater.
It's like being beneath a clear stream, watching Gao Jin in the sky act recklessly, becoming the ruler of this world.
What has changed this time?
Zhong Ming lay at the bottom of the water, the dark and deep environment giving him an indescribable sense of security. Even though the flames had already burned his skin, he was unwilling to go out and fight.
What has changed? Nothing has changed.
Lamb awaiting slaughter.
He slowly raised his left hand, spreading his fingers to shield his eyes, peering through the gaps between them at his own death.
Suddenly, it felt like my right hand touched something.
With a firm grip, Zhong Ming knew it was a weapon, a sword, a... mother-and-child sword.
Of course it's the Mother-Child Sword! What other sword could it be?
He wanted to raise the sword and place it in his left hand, carefully stroking every inch of the blade.
With a slight exertion of his right hand, the longsword remained unmoved.
Muscles bulged, veins bulged on arms, and blood roared in the veins.
The longsword still lay on the ground.
He was furious, furious from who knows where. He felt no anger in the face of the world collapsing, his heart was ashen, but when faced with this small difficulty, he became irritable and full of hostility.
A surge of brute force rose within him, and he sat up abruptly, looking at the sword. It wasn't the mother-and-child sword.
He had never seen this sword before, but for some reason it felt very familiar.
It seems like it's always been lying there, but I've just ignored it all along.
A very firm thought emerged and could no longer be dispelled.
Is this the Sword of the Ancestor of Humanity?
Did he pull it out of the mountains? Did He wave it on the command platform?
Has it drunk the blood of beasts? The most powerful and lawless beasts.
definitely.
Zhong Ming looked up and saw a giant dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws in the air, looking incredibly majestic.
The gaze was unsettling. After circling in the air for a while, the dragon lowered its head and stared intently at the frail creature in the water.
Hide in your little ditch and wait to die. When I burn the heavens and earth dry, cut off the upstream streams, and cleave off your escape route, what can you do then?
Like the little fish and shrimp, let them turn into a pot of meat soup under the dragon's might.
It extends its sharp claws and reveals its fangs. The white flames containing terrifying energy are infinitely compressed into a thin film and attached to its claws and fangs, making it indestructible.
The dragon defiantly swayed its whiskers, as if asking:
"Would you like to test the sharpness of my dragon claws?"
"My sword is not bad at all!"
Sword light shot into the sky.
With a single sword strike, the dragon was startled, twisting its body to dodge the attack and looking down in fear.
The entire surface of the water was completely cleaved open, and endless sword intent divided the lake in two. The man stood at the bottom of the lake, coldly watching it.
Humph.
A disdainful aura emanated from the dragon's nostrils. "The advantage is in my hands now. You think you can kill me with just a broken sword? There's no such simple logic."
Zhong Ming struggled to lift the longsword, large beads of sweat constantly sliding down his forehead. The sword was heavier than he could have imagined; every time he used his strength to lift it, even greater pressure would press the blade back to the ground.
He felt short of breath. Yes, after leaving the water, he found it difficult to breathe. His lungs were dry, and he could only inhale about 30% of the air he used to breathe.
The dragon flipped in the air, as if mocking him for being "unhelpful to heaven and earth."
He stood at the bottom of the water, as if he were standing on the summit of a snow-capped mountain.
Mountain peak, oh mountain peak.
With a cry from the mountaintop, my life ends; all the heroes of the world come from the west!
Unite all forces that can be united. Heaven and earth are ruthless; seek harmony among people and the Way!
When the time is right, heaven and earth lend their strength. What is meant by "time"?
Is the time ripe?
Circumstances create heroes, and heroes create circumstances!
I will be the first butterfly to flap its wings, the first wave to be stirred up, and the first person to ascend to the heavens and slay the dragon.
There is no one else here, only me.
I come!
At this moment, the longsword became as easy to wield as his own arm, as if thousands of people were helping him lift up this sacred blade.
With each step, it felt as if millions of years had passed.
The gentle breeze that once stirred the butterfly's wings has now transformed into a storm sweeping across the land, sounding the horns of victory. The slight ripples have become towering waves, crashing against the war drums that are soaring to the heavens.
The dragon sensed a force, a force bursting forth. The dragon's roar came from beyond the heavens, hollow and terrifying, while their power surged from the ground, from all sides, from all directions.
There's nowhere to hide, nowhere to avoid.
When the time comes, heaven and earth will lend their strength; I summon the time to command heaven and earth!
A sense of fear throbbed across each of the dragon's scales, breaking off its whiskers, smoothing its claws, and trimming its beard before finally crashing into its heart.
No, run! Hide, hide in the deepest place!
Run! Run!
The dragon raised its head and soared away, frantically swimming into the layers of clouds, never to return!
Zhong Ming suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing from them.
Looking around, a subtle heroic aura was flowing through everyone, and all of them were looking towards that small ravine where the Buddha's light was about to fade.
For a moment, Zhong Ming felt as if everyone had become one, like soldiers in a huge army formation, shouting battle cries together, advancing and retreating together, and fighting bravely against the enemy together.
Illusion?
He looked at his hands, which were covered in sweat, probably from nervousness.
It's really amazing how everyone feels when they share the same goal.
After uttering this sigh, Zhong Ming stopped thinking about it.
The flames outside still raged, and the lava had become a new great river. On this bank of the Night River, only the chant "Amitabha" remained.
.....
The formation fluctuated a few times, but quickly stabilized. Su Longshan looked up and seemed to have received some instructions. He immediately sat down cross-legged, holding a high-quality spirit stone in one hand, and began to inject spiritual power into the formation.
The Foundation Establishment stage has been deployed to a large formation! The situation is about to change.
Focusing their gaze, everyone saw a suspended "Night River" and a huge fire dragon with lava-like skin approaching from afar.
Countless beams of light and electricity converged upon it from the earth, and the flame that had plundered all spiritual energy and souls ended its mission!
It could be several thousand feet long.
This was Zhong Ming's first thought, which vanished without a trace after a short while.
It's nearly ten thousand feet tall, absolutely! Could it be nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine feet? Only after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage can one grow to ten thousand feet?
Before he could have any other thoughts.
The dragon claw gently scraped across the beautiful "glass" array of Jishui Mountain, and with a "sizzle," flames poured down like a flood.
Without any orders from their superiors, all the instructors were shouting, "Inject spiritual power! Inject spiritual power into the great formation! Anyone who wants to live, do it now!"
