Chapter 1372: Marquis Versus Ice Dragon

Clad in a purple outfit and possessing a pair of profound eyes, the purple-haired youth stood there with a purple aura around him, looking incomparably heroic. After finding out about Xiang Shaoyun’s incident, Purple Lightning Marquis had rushed over. He did not use any teleportation formations yet still arrived faster than one using teleportation formations.
The moment he arrived, he dripped out a drop of blood essence and formed an abstruse seal with his hand. Soon, several phantoms appeared around him as the scenes of Xiang Shaoyun’s previous battle replayed before his eyes.
Purple Lightning Marquis memorized all the faces he saw in the scenes. When he saw that Xiang Shaoyun had been crippled, his eyes turned murderous as he said, “Those who dare to harm the overlord shall die!”
His gaze then landed on the Heavenly Snow Mountain. As his gaze focused, purple lightning appeared around him. He roared, “Ice dragon, release the overlord, or I’ll destroy your lair!”
A storm of thunder, rumbling incessantly, surrounded the Heavenly Snow Mountain in its entirety. Purple Lightning Marquis had formed an ocean of lightning with a single look of his eyes, an incredibly imposing feat that only a God could accomplish.
These lightning bolts were far more powerful than ordinary lightning bolts. As they bombarded the mountain, the mountain shook, and a sheet of indestructible ice started melting off. The ice dragon was naturally alarmed by the powerful display outside his lair.
“Yet another person here to disturb my sleep,” the ice dragon roared furiously.
Even Money was awakened from his slumber, and he asked, “Lord ice dragon, what happened?”
“I wish to know as well,” said the ice dragon unhappily.
As more and more lightning bolts descended upon the Heavenly Snow Mountain, causing the mountain to shake, the ice dragon flew out of his cave in a fury. Money was too slow to leave before the cave’s entrance was covered up again. Thus, he decided to stay and stand guard beside Xiang Shaoyun instead. He also wanted to take this chance to help Xiang Shaoyun escape.
The ice dragon appeared outside the cave in his true form. He loved showing up in his true form, as he believed that his true form was the most majestic and heroic of the numerous living beings. Head held high, he looked at Purple Lightning Marquis and roared, “Tiny human, you deserve death for disturbing my slumber!”
Purple Lightning Marquis met the dragon’s gaze calmly and said, “Release the overlord, and I’ll spare your life.”
“I’m the overlord. Die!” said the ice dragon. He could see that the youth before him was no pushover. With a roar, he spat out a breath of frost that instantly covered a massive distance.
Facing the frost attack, Purple Lightning Marquis stood still and unleashed a massive amount of purple lightning energy to blast away all the encroaching frost energy. The dragon’s attack failed to do anything to him.
At the same time, he formed a purple lightning spear in his hand and stabbed at the ice dragon. Like a divine weapon capable of overcoming all defenses, the spear pierced through space as it headed toward the ice dragon’s head.
The swift attack caught the ice dragon by complete surprise. He was unable to cleanly avoid the attack in time. The spear struck his neck, nearly puncturing through his scales. He hissed in pain.
A dreadful dragon’s roar rumbled in all directions, causing space to collapse and the world of ice to crack. Like a fearless war god, Purple Lightning Marquis stabbed repeatedly, instantly striking the same spot 81 times, forcing the ice dragon to retreat.
The ice dragon was naturally not such a weak opponent. The dragons were one of the strongest races in existence. His combat strength was incomparably powerful. As his draconic aura erupted, his strength soared. An intense clash between the two thus began.
The ice dragon’s frost energy was incomparably powerful. All the ambient frost energy in the area was under his control. He aimed to turn Purple Lightning Marquis into an ice statue before swallowing the human whole.
Purple Lightning Marquis could naturally sense the threat coming from the frost energy around him. The frost was so powerful even his body turned stiff. Even so, he showed no fear as a thick layer of purple lightning wrapped around his body, protecting him from the frost. Countless lightning bolts rained down from the sky, giving one the impression that a dragon was about to be slain.
As the human and dragon fought, they soared high into the sky. Two different energies clashed incessantly, changing even the weather. Massive amounts of energy flowed and spread around them in a chaotic manner. If a third person dared to approach the battleground, they would be immediately reduced into a pile of blood.
After cultivating in seclusion for 10,000 years, Purple Lightning Marquis was incredibly powerful. As someone whom the previous Overlord had acknowledged as the person with the highest chance to surpass the Overlord himself, Purple Lightning Marquis possessed a combat strength that was not to be underestimated.
Purple Lightning Marquis had not failed to reach the previous Overlord’s expectations. After surviving the war, he had entered the Rebirth Realm. After 10,000 years of bitter cultivation, he had surpassed even the previous Overlord.
This ice dragon had also cultivated in seclusion for countless years and had obtained great strength. He was the tyrant of this area. Here, he would not tolerate any challengers, not even the youth before him.
Ice and lightning clashed repeatedly, causing the world to shake and the heavens to tremble in fear.
Purple Lightning Clone!
Instantly, Purple Lightning Marquis manifested countless clones that attacked the ice dragon from numerous directions. Each clone was incomparably powerful. Formed through natural lightning bolts, each clone had a corporeal body.
Dragon God’s Tail!
The ice dragon was no pushover. Facing so many lightning clones, he swept his tail out and instantly crushed numerous clones. However, those clones were not to be underestimated either. The destructive lightning energy bombarded the ice dragon without stopping, tormenting the ice dragon with a continuous stabbing pain. Many of his scales were blasted off his body while his blood was spilled.
Of course, Purple Lightning Marquis wasn’t any better off. The extreme frost energy had invaded his body, nearly turning him into a block of ice. The dragon’s tail also struck him, sending him flying while coughing blood. The two were evenly matched.
“Again!” Purple Lightning Marquis demonstrated the ferocity of a veteran general. The more he fought, the fiercer he became. The entire sky turned into an ocean of lightning that bombarded the ice dragon endlessly. Nothing could stop the boundless destructive lightning origin energy.
The ice dragon fully utilized his frost techniques, creating numerous ice crystals as he fought against the endless lightning strikes. At the same time, he clawed out again and again, trying to claw the tiny human into mincemeat.
“I’ll tear you apart!” roared the ice dragon furiously.
As his massive body thrashed around, his frost energy spread and turned the sky into a chunk of ice. He was not about to spare this human. Purple Lightning Marquis also wanted to end this battle. When he sensed that the ice dragon was about to use his full strength, he also stopped holding back.
The actual Purple Lightning Spear appeared in his hand as he channeled all his lightning energy into it. He then stabbed forward, sending out a bolt of purple lightning. The bolt seemed to skip through space itself to directly reach the ice dragon’s neck. As the spear traveled through space, it left a spectacular trail of purple lightning in its path.
