Chapter 93: The Dragon King - 93
When Zhou Fan heard the whistling sound, he immediately looked up towards the source. However, just as he looked, a giant pillar of flames collided with the tornado of death Qi.
In an instant, both attacks dispersed leaving only sizzling air. Zhou Fan was going to check it out, but the ice queen made a sudden attack that he had to defend. As soon as he blocked it, he counterattacked with a ball of death Qi that exploded and pushed the ice queen back, right next to Anna.
After that round of attacks, neither group made another move. It wasn't that they were taking a break, but that they were waiting for whoever shot out that attack to arrive.
Moments later, a black blur in the distance appeared. It seemed that it was making its way towards the battlefield, and fast. It took a mere five seconds for the speeding silhouette to become visible.
It rushed forwards with two wings and fire Qi pouring out of its body. It had a crown made of gold on its head that was an incredible creation itself. It even reached the 5th grade, or void traversing.
Red, almost purplish scales covered its body and its eyes were an unmistakable yellow. Clearly, this being was the dragon king. As for why he had come here, Zhou Fan had no idea.
In ten more seconds, the dragon king reached the battlefield and landed next to Anna, releasing a powerful amount of pressure from its body that was thirty feet tall.
"What is this thing, and how strong is it?" He asked immediately upon landing. He didn't speak like he was talking to an enemy, but to a friend.
"He is death or something. He is more powerful than either one of us." She answered. "Even my ice queen cannot defeat him."
As their conversation happened, Zhou Fan was watching intently. After hearing what they said and how they said it, Zhou Fan put two and two together.
Most likely, the two lands had made a truce after battling for a long time. That would explain why the supreme beasts withdrew from the war and why they hadn't even had minor skirmishes in the past years.
"He may be strong, but if you work with my ice queen, we may win." She said.
The dragon king was the reason why she hadn't given up even after losing the fight every time. He had surely felt the aura that Zhou Fan had given off and she knew he would come as soon as possible.
Zhou Fan looked at the two next to each other and knew that 'death' would have to use his full strength in the next encounter. He was actually somewhat expectant. He would get to see the two strongest beings in his world fight together.
After Anna's words, the two stopped talking and looked at Zhou Fan solemnly.
Without words, the ice queen and the dragon king moved towards Zhou Fan at the same time. The ice queen slashed out an arc of space Qi towards Zhou Fan and the dragon king let out a breath of fire towards him.
Zhou Fan jumped above the attacks, but not before noticing that the dragon king's fire breath didn't just contain fire Qi. Alongside it was dragon Qi and Demon Qi.
Having an affinity to both Dragon Qi and Demon Qi despite not being a demon was surely rare.
In fact, the dragon king could be said to be a demonic dragon.
After seeing that their attacks missed, the two prepared for their next attacks. The ice queen sent out another arc of space Qi while the dragon king physically moved towards Zhou Fan and slashed out with his claws.
Zhou Fan slashed out a crescent of death Qi that met with the ice arc in mid air and dispersed it, then punched out towards the dragon king's claw.
Despite the fact that the dragon king's claw was the size of his body, it didn't overpower him. Instead, Zhou Fan's punch actually pushed back the dragon king's claws.
After neutralizing their attacks, Zhou Fan pushed his arms that were bent to the back of his body so that his shoulders moved closer to each other, and released the move he had created just moments ago in his head.
The skies darkened and clouds gathered in an instant, garnering the attention of the dragon king and anna. Zhou Fan raised his hand and a phantom dragon made of death Qi soared towards the dragon king. The dragon didn't look like the dragon king, but more like a mature version of Xiaolong.
The dragon king, seeing the attack fly towards him, didn't shy away from the challenge and flew towards the phantom dragon. While they were moving towards each other, Zhou Fan moved extremely quick towards the ice queen and slashed out with his scythe covered in death Qi.
She too didn't back off and met the attack with both of her swords. Both the dragon king and the phantom dragon met at the same time that Zhou Fans scythe and the ice queen's swords met.
The dragon king clawed at the phantom dragon while it simply opened its mouth and accelerated. A loud explosion sounded out as they collided. The phantom dragon instantly disappeared and the dragon king's claws were bent out of shape from the collision. However, he did not face any major injuries.
As for the ice Queen, she underestimated Zhou Fan's physical strength and got a cut on her right cheek. However, she too had no major injury.
Zhou Fan backed away again as the odds of winning the battle seemed slimmer and slimmer.
All of a sudden, Zhou Fan saw Anna's face out of his peripheral vision. On her right cheek, there was a cut. It was exactly the same as the one on the ice queen.
He couldn't even stop himself from smiling as he realized what it meant. As long as he could kill the ice queen, Anna would die too.
Chapter 94: Battles End - 94
Once Zhou Fan made the realization that hurting the ice queen would also hurt Anna, he ran towards the ice queen at full speed. In the middle of his quick travel, the dragon king got in his way and tried to stop him, but Zhou Fan sent spikes of death Qi after him and the dragon king had to back off a bit due to their strength.
With a narrow gap, Zhou Fan was able to reach the ice queen and confront her. He didn't hold back a bit as he threw his scythe at her then summoned a sword made of death Qi and chased in the direction she dodged.
Just as she jumped left to avoid the attack, Zhou Fan appeared beside her and sliced at her stomach in mid air. Anna's eyes widened and the ice queen deployed a frost shield as fast as possible.
Due to her hasty creation, the frost shield was very weak and was instantly broken through by Zhou Fan's death sword. Unfortunately, the ice queen was able to make a bit of ice at the bottom of her feet and push off with it.
That very move confirmed that the ice queen couldn't fly. Perhaps that was the biggest weakness of Anna's supreme move.
Zhou Fan didn't stop after missing once and instead unrelentingly chased her. As he moved forward to attack the ice queen a second time, the dragon king managed to destroy the spikes Zhou Fan had sent chasing him.
Zhou Fan was moments away from attacking her when a sound wave traveled towards him and interrupted his attack.
ROAR!
The soundwave was caused by the dragon king and even had a fair amount of strength imbued in it.
Although he didn't have to put too much effort into blocking the attack, he now had to restart his chase.
The battle continued in such a fashion for 20 more minutes. It caused havoc and destruction upon the area they fought in. Even the air was starting to distort from the pure strength that was radiating from them.
However, the battle was going to change very soon. Anna, who had been laying on the ground for a while, had recovered a tenth of her Qi. Although she couldn't really fight, she was now able to protect herself.
Without the burden of protecting Anna, the ice queen and the dragon king could focus all their strength into attacking. Zhou Fan was instantly pushed into a defensive situation. From the looks of it, he would not be able to win.
After another 40 minutes, Zhou Fan noticed the silhouettes of 10 giant beings in the distance. With a closer look, he could tell that they were ten of the strongest supreme beasts, each being at the tenth level of soul formation.
It was at that point when Zhou Fan finally decided to retreat. His purpose had been fulfilled and the battle was fun.
As the ten more fighters were approaching and the ice queen and the dragon king were attacking, Zhou Fan soared into the air and stood there unmoving. All of a sudden, an immense pressure flowed out of his body. It was much stronger than any other move that had been made today.
"You may have defeated me once, but I will be back. And I will be much much stronger. There will never be a day that you kill me for I cannot die. I am the grim reaper, and I will destroy your world eventually!" Zhou Fan said before creating an illusion in which deaths body turned to ashes and disappeared.
As Anna and the dragon king realized that the battle had ended, they let out sighs of relief. However, they felt a sense of foreboding. They instinctively knew that Zhou Fan wasn't bluffing when he said that he would be back.
They also felt a sense of urgency. They were itching to go back and start cultivating in preparation.
Unfortunately, there were far too many things to do in order to stabilize the current celestial lands. The dragon king had it easier, but he still needed to do some things after he exited seclusion.
With a goodbye, the dragon king and his ten subordinates left the area. Anna canceled the ice queen and stood alone above the icy battlefield.
She then remembered that her subordinates were locked in a battle with skeletons and flew to the location as soon as possible. When she arrived, there were only five people alive.
The only reason that those five were even alive was that when Zhou Fan left, the skeleton spell was canceled. Out of the ten soul formation cultivators that were currently in the central city, only five remained. Anna immediately recalled the celestial troops from their borders and ordered that all celestials gather up in what was left of the city for the next period of time.
Then, she started to repair the broken city and heal the injured people.
--------------------------
Zhou Fan, the true Zhou Fan, appeared above a mountain far from the battle. He had taken his disguise off and let out a sigh of relief. Whoever said acting wasn't hard was lying.
It was extremely hard to stay in character during the battle and he was glad it was over. Next time, he would definitely create a clone that could disguise itself as the grim reaper.
He had chosen the name of the grim reaper at the end of the battle when he realized that death would be too confusing.
Although he was exhausted and tired, Zhou Fan still felt anticipation for the next battle. After all, that was by far the funnest battle he had ever had. He also knew that next time, they would be prepared.
They would also frantically increase the strength of themselves and their people.
After getting his mind off the battle, Zhou Fan paid attention to the state of the Zhou World. During the battle, it started expanding at a rapid rate.
After a year or so, there would be an entire new section of the world to explore. It would also increase the size of the world by three times.
