Chapter VII: The Decline of Forces
There is no immortal empire in the world.
This sentence can also be equated with Hakoin in Hakoin: Hakoin has no immortal community.
No matter how powerful the demon king is, he will eventually fall into the hands of the brave; No matter how prosperous the community is, it will eventually disappear in the long river of time.
The emergence of the Ruler of the Plenipotentiary is the wish of the countless communities in the lower strata that are shrouded in the shadow of the Demon King's wrath, but it is a situation that the Demon Kings do not want to see.
At the beginning, in the face of the irresistible "closed world", both the demon king and the gods and Buddhas were willing to join forces to fight the enemy, but after losing the common strong enemy, it was only a matter of time before they tore their faces.
In the early morning of the new day, with the cool breeze of the mat, many of the leaders of the community were surprised to find that the banner that had been hanging on the gate of the realm to belong to the "Arcadia" girl walking on the land had disappeared.
The lower community, which had suddenly lost its class dominators, was at a loss for a moment, and they didn't even know what was happening.
What happened to the "Arcadia", which crisscrossed the three regions and once advanced to the top?
Because of the problem of strength, they did not participate in the battle, but the community that was friendly with "Arcadia" hurriedly sent men to the station of "Arcadia".
Not to mention those communities who are worried about being attacked by the Demon King after losing the hierarchy dominator, the situation on the Ouroboros side of the Demon King Alliance does not seem to be much better.
The "Ouroboros" alliance was almost fully dispatched, and the demon kings who finally returned to the station were only seven layers, and most of them were injured.
The collision of the two major forces really cannot leave room for ease.
Even if the battle was hastily fought, Arcadia's desperate counterattack still caused a lot of casualties to the demon kings.
In the final analysis, Hakoniwa is a world of fighting for personal strength.
A strong man can often turn the tide of a battle.
However, the biggest loser in this battle is naturally the "Arcadia" major league. This is evident from the disappearance of their banners from all over the country, and the fact that they no longer have the strength to act as the rulers of the full hierarchy.
Unable to defend all of its territory, Arcadia shrank its sphere of influence and had no choice but to give up a large amount of territory.
The vacant position will naturally be topped by other communities, and it will not be so easy to get it back in the future. It was once successful, thanks to the battle against the "Closed World", which exhausted the foundation of a large number of powerful communities, and had to accept the rise of "Arcadia", and even had to accept their protection in order to survive.
There are no secrets in the box.
The gods and Buddhas, who were proficient in prophecy, quickly figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
After the news spread, everyone knew that the powerful "Arcadia" was counterattacked by the Demon King, and the main members were almost dead more than six layers, and the sphere of influence shrank from the original three regions connecting the southeast, north and south to only the eastern region.
For a while, everyone was in danger, lest the demon king who almost defeated "Arcadia" would target him. Losing the protection of the all-powerful rulers, in just over ten days, disasters plagued by demon kings occurred one after another in various places.
As a last resort, the gods and Buddhas had no choice but to select excellent communities in various places, bestow them gifts, and appoint them as class rulers, which calmed down the riot a little.
And the "Arcadia" Grand Alliance, which was attacked by the Demon King and greatly reduced in strength, was selectively ignored. Except for a small number of communities with strong friendships who give some help, lest the demon king regard them as a community connected to "Arcadia" and choose to stand by.
Compared to "Arcadia", who shrank back to the station and silently licked his wounds, the demon king who achieved his goal celebrated despite his injuries.
"It's really dangerous to say, that guy deserves to be the strongest in 'Arcadia', and he almost can't come back."
At the celebratory banquet, the fierce and ruthless demon king in front of the people had no image to get together, hooking his shoulders and boasting about his achievements, and there was no trace of his past domineering.
If it is seen by others, perhaps the majesty of the Demon King will be gone, and he will never be feared again.
"That's right, that guy was like a dragon in a rage at the last moment, and he was in a mess. It makes my heart palpitate when I think about it now. ”
As he spoke, the demon king was still holding his chest with a pale face, as if he had been frightened.
Don't think that the demon king is very great, in fact, the demon king also has a level, and there are very few demon kings whose real strength has reached the upper level, and most of the demon kings have been in the middle and lower levels all their lives. Facing the three strongest races of Hakote, the pure breeds of dragon races with at least three-digit level in strength, they would also feel frightened.
"And how did you get back?"
Just from the performance of the other party, you can see how dangerous the situation was at that time, and when you heard his story, the people around you immediately asked curiously. At that time, they were fighting canaries on another battlefield.
Hearing this, the pale-faced Demon King glanced at someone in another circle, someone in the circle that only the upper Demon King was qualified to join.
smiled wryly, and then replied as a matter of course.
"Of course someone resisted him!"
The people around immediately rolled their eyes, of course they knew that someone had resisted Kong Ming.
"It's the castle lord of Castlevania."
sold a pass, but as a result, all the people around him were annoyed, and the demon king immediately didn't dare to continue to tease, otherwise he would be beaten by the surrounding crowd.
The people around all showed expressions of surprise, and there were very few people in the Daimyo Box Court of Castlevania who didn't know.
Although Castlevania City was lurking because of the great loss of strength due to the attack on the Great Thunder Yin Temple, their great ferocity was still deeply rooted in people's hearts.
For a while, everyone's eyes were on the circle where the upper-level demon king was. Compared with the number of people in other circles who are at least in double digits, the number of people in the circle where Cang Zhen and the others are located is less than a palm.
However, even if there are only these people, the Demon King Alliance "Ouroboros" is still the most terrifying Demon King organization in Hakotei.
The things that the other demon kings talked about were naturally listened to by Cang Zhen and the others, and his mind was also pulled back to that moment by those few words.
In a trance, Cang Zhen seemed to see Kong Ming's mighty figure like an angry god again.
In the face of the furious dragon, the pores of Cang Zhen's whole body contracted under the pressure of Long Wei, and his spirit was highly tense.
The potential of the "Life Catalog" was exerted to the extreme by Kong Ming, and the pure breed of the complete dragon species had already reached three digits in strength.
The power and vernacy of the three-digit number are only in the middle of the two.
It was Cang Zhen who put pressure on Kong Ming to abandon his humanity and step into the three-digit level.
Of course, even if there is no Cangzhen, under the oppression of others, Kong Ming will break through the realm, and Cangzhen will not play much role in it. After all, Kong Ming already had the ability to rise to three digits, but he was unwilling to delay it.
Becoming a pure breed of the dragon species, Kong Ming's momentum has not changed much, but the danger omen in Cang's heart has never been higher.
Very strong, Kong Ming at this moment is far more powerful than the dragon that Leticia has turned into.
The most obvious point is that the earth can no longer carry Kong Ming's weight, and the mass of his body has surpassed that of a continent.
From where the dragon stood, cobweb-like cracks were stretching, and the ground was cracked by the dragon's weight.
The dragon instinctively wagged its tail and slammed the ground behind it into the air.
As if understanding that the ground could no longer support itself, the dragon slowly floated to a position suspended one meter above the ground.
The terrifying air currents that swept over a radius of kilometers poured into the dragon's mouth, and it was just a deep breath for Kong Ming.
During this period, Cang Zhen's sharp eyes found that several unlucky people were swept into Kong Ming's mouth by the hurricane, including people from the Demon King Alliance and people from the Arcadia Grand Alliance, and Cang Zhen didn't want to think about what their fate was.
"Roar!"
After taking a deep breath, Kong Ming roared as if he was about to exhale the air in his lungs.
The space in front of the dragon also showed an overwhelming tremor under this roar, and the invisible space appeared like a wave, making people's scalps tingle.
Although Cang Zhen can also smash the space without even spending much effort, it is definitely not as simple as Kong Ming is now. No force was used, just a normal deep breath.
However, Cangzhen's mission is not to kill Kong Ming.
If you can easily kill him, Cang Zhen doesn't mind doing it easily, but in fact, to kill Kong Ming, the price that Cang Zhen needs to bear is definitely not low. Therefore, from the very beginning, Cang Zhen did not have the strength to fight against Kong Ming.
It's a pity that Kong Ming was anxious because of the death of his companion in the end.
Sure enough, you can't stay any longer, and when it's time to retreat, you have to be decisive and flash.
"Kong Ming!"
Pretending to be fighting to the death, Cangzhen held the sword of light high, and the magic power of his whole body was injected into the sword in one breath, and the magic power that can be called a bottomless pit even appeared when it bottomed out.
As soon as the sword momentum was combined, Kong Ming's eyes never left the sword of light in Cang Zhen's hand. In the face of that terrifying power that seemed to be about to break through the heavens and the earth, no one dared to look away when facing its front.
"If you have the ability, take this sword and try it!"
The sword qi went all the way, and only chaos was left behind, and nothing existed in earth, water, wind and fire, time, and space.
After becoming a dragon species, Kong Ming seems to have inherited the arrogance of the dragon species, and his former wisdom was suppressed by the ferocity in the dragon's bones.
In the face of Cangzhen's provocation, Kong Ming's pride of belonging to the dragon species came out, and he was unwilling to escape, so he even raised his dragon claws to try to catch the attacking sword qi.
As a result, without thinking too much, the sword qi continued to chop off Kong Ming's two dragon claws, and also left a penetrating wound on his chest.
What Cang Zhen was worried about still happened, once the dragon purebred is injured, the scales and blood will evolve into a new secondary species. The dragon that Kong Ming incarnated was like a productive machine, blood spurting from his chest, and before it could hit the ground, it turned into a new dragon that had never appeared before and pounced on Cangzhen.
With a blood arrow, Kong Ming created dozens of dragons that had never been recorded.
If this is a race of creation, no one can beat him in speed and quality.
However, when Kong Ming relied on his physical body to resist Cang Zhen's sword qi and was about to let the other party see his strength, he found that Cang Zhen was nowhere to be seen.
Looking around, Kong Ming was stunned to find that he couldn't find any demon kings around.
