C1491 Rovi Who Was Fully Awake!

Zhong Chichen plunged into the Seven-Colored Lake.

At that very instant, Huangyin and Xuanying, along with the elegant specter concealed within the wooden tombstone, all experienced a suffocating discomfort.

Their bond with the Seven-Colored Lake had been severed, as if sliced by an invisible blade.

The Seven-Colored Lake, the sacred lake of their Terra Fiend lineage, was their place of origin and the wellspring of their ancient power.

Yet, with Zhong Chichen's descent, the lake seemed to have become an extension of him.

It had transformed into his dragon pool.

Previously, when they were gravely injured, to the point where their souls were nearly shattered, submerging in the Seven-Colored Lake would allow them to rapidly heal.

For them, this Seven-Colored Lake was akin to the Blood Altar of the Star-Spawned Terror!

The Blood Altar, painstakingly crafted by the Sky Fiend Clan, could swiftly mend the gravest wounds of a clan member.

The Sky Fiend and the Terra Fiend shared many commonalities.

The myriad properties of the Seven-Colored Lake bore a striking resemblance to the Blood Altar known as the Tears of the Azurefiend, overseen by Tian Zang.

The base layer of the Tears of the Azurefiend, called the Spawn of Chaos, was a concoction of corruption and venom.

However, the marvels of the Seven-Colored Lake clearly surpassed those of the Tears of the Azurefiend, brimming with even greater wonders.

For the Seven-Colored Lake had the power to nurture Terra Fiends, to regenerate entirely new ones, and to subtly wield control over the entire Defiled World!

But now, they felt as though they had been forsaken by the Seven-Colored Lake, unable to draw strength from its waters any longer...

All because Zhong Chichen had entered its depths.

"Great Ancestor..."

Loong Jie, resembling a serpentine golden fortress floating in the sky, fixed his massive golden eyes on the diminutive figure immersed in the lake.

He could distinctly sense that the bloodline chain nestled within Zhong Chichen's heart was of draconic lineage!

At this moment, Zhong Chichen's iridescent Solar Spirit Body was harvesting the psionic power of the Seven-Colored Lake, undergoing a miraculous transformation.

It had transformed into a slightly smaller Seven-Colored Dragon!

Loong Jie now understood that Zhong Chichen, the current Sect Master of the Order of Healing whom he had previously believed beyond saving, was in fact their Naga's Chronowyrm!

Reflecting on how he had used his golden hand to hold down the furnace lid to keep Zhong Chichen from emerging, Loong Jie couldn't shake off a feeling of unease.

He also realized that the space rifts, on the verge of bursting open due to Rovi's space magic, had been tampered with from the shadows.

The moment his dragon ancestor soared from the Dragon Slaying Stage and into the furnace, merging into the human form, the awakening began.

As more dragon's breath, akin to that of the Seven-Colored Dragon, infused into his body, the Dragon Soul within Zhong Chichen's dominant soul swiftly stirred back to life.

By the time Zhong Chichen stepped out of the furnace and exchanged smiles with Yu Yuan, he had already covertly dismantled Rovi's space rules with his influence.

The oppressive sensation of the Way of Heaven that Rovi experienced during the battle, the source of his discomfort, was all due to him.

Sizzle sizzle!

The luminous space blades in the sky became chaotic, seemingly not fully under Rovi's command.

Chen Liangquan and Tan Junshan, who had been planning their retreat, paused, now a glimmering silver light, due to the unexpected turn of events.

Tan Junshan's crescent-shaped Divine Visage shifted back into human form.

Chen Liangquan, clutching the fragmented crystal ball, came to a halt beside him in the void.

Both men, with looks of astonishment and confusion, turned their gaze from Rovi to Zhong Chichen, who was now partially visible above the surface of the Seven-Colored Lake.

"He's the Chronowyrm?"

Chen Liangquan was taken aback.

Tan Junshan wiped the sweat from his brow and mused, "Considering what the Terra Fiend ancestors implied, Zhong Chichen could be the ancient Seven-Colored Dragon. Did you notice how effortlessly we escaped Rovi's clutches earlier?"

"Yes, I did feel that..." Chen Liangquan agreed with a nod.

Exchanging a knowing glance, they both decided not to flee the Defiled World.

They were determined to uncover the truth: Was Zhong Chichen truly the Seven-Colored Dragon?

If such an ancient Dragon God were to reappear in the world, taking on Zhong Chichen's human form, what kind of impact would it have on the Everlands and the current state of affairs?

"Xuanying, and... you're Rovi, right?" Zhong Chichen, within the Seven-Colored Lake, looked up at the two unusual beings fused in soul and body. "Xuanying, it seems you're deeply afraid of me. How many years has it been? Your grand plan is to merge with a peak-bloodline Voidweaver?"

"Do you believe you need to master space magic or find the strongest in that field to stand against me, to counter me? I'm privy to all the mysteries of the Terra Fiend, and you're curious about the space magic secrets I've uncovered?"

"In all the realms, the strongest Voidweaver you could think of is Rovi, isn't it?"

"Heh!"

"Rovi, I've killed all the high-ranking Voidweavers before you. Even your creator, that colorful butterfly..."

"Wasn't it separated from its body, its soul from its flesh, by the Dragon Slaying Stage, barely escaping with a fragment of its life?"

"And I, aside from that one, was the greatest contributor!"

Zhong Chichen's sarcasm was biting as he mocked the progenitor of the Terra Fiend, Xuanying, and the patriarch of the Voidweavers, including the divine butterfly that founded their race.

Yu Yuan, standing above on the Dragon Slaying Stage, felt a slight tremor at his senior brother's words. He had a faint memory of the event...

He remembered seeing a massive, elongated Hex Stone shattering branches and piercing through many stars of the divine tree, and a giant colorful butterfly, its soul and body forcibly split, fleeing in a panic.

The Dragon Soul of the Seven-Colored Dragon had not perished on the Dragon Slaying Stage, making it a direct participant. Thus, his senior brother was speaking the truth without exaggeration.

"You are still only at the Unbound Realm. And currently, the Everlands lacks a new Supreme God to swiftly elevate you to divinity."

Rovi spoke from midair, his purple eyes dimming the specter of Xuanying. The patriarch of the Voidweaver Clan had been truly angered by Zhong Chichen.

When Zhong Chichen had plunged into the Seven-Colored Lake, Rovi noticed that Xuanying's power to summon the corrupt miasma was utterly suppressed by Zhong Chichen, prompting him to signal Xuanying to conceal herself.

He was determined to take full control of this body and, in his most powerful form, end the battle swiftly.

"Rovi!"

Huangyin, Yuan Qingxi, and the specter within the tombstone all made way.

They retreated from the Seven-Colored Lake and from Rovi, leaving the battlefield and space to the true powerhouse from the extraterrestrial realm who had been concealed here for many years.

He was second only to the Great Demon God Bertain and the Dawnbringers' Cardo, ranking as the third most formidable.

Yuan Qingxi and Huangyin were aware that Rovi's combat strength had never waned. After the Blood King Sabonis had dealt him a severe blow, he remained the third mightiest in the extraterrestrial Star River!

Crack! Crack!

The space of the Defiled World suddenly fractured like colossal panes of glass.

The elongated space rifts, previously unable to fully split, now tore open in a mere moment!

Countless space rifts stretched across the heavens, rending the void into fragments.

Aoao!

Loong Jie's massive dragon form was almost instantly reduced to a blur of flesh and blood.

Scales were sliced off, and his undulating tail was abruptly severed into several segments.

As Loong Jie's blood rained down and he cried out in agony, he rapidly contracted and diminished in size.

No longer could he brazenly employ his grand and imposing dragon form to terrorize the Terra Fiend and the nefarious demons of the Bloodbrawlers.

Crack!

The crystal ball gripped by Chen Liangquan cracked, oozing streams of silver blood.

Each droplet glinted with a blinding divine radiance.

Chen Liangquan's complexion turned deathly pale as he pressed both hands against the crystal ball, his pride giving way to desperation as he implored Tan Junshan for aid: "Help me!"

Regrettably, his call for help went unanswered.

In the blink of an eye, Tan Junshan vanished, swallowed by the Warp Gate that Rovi had conjured, cast into some unknown void.

He might never find his way back.

"Rovi, your complete resurgence and the resulting spatial turmoil will surely be perceived by the supreme beings of the Everlands. Before long, you'll face the onslaught of the Everlands' mightiest. Not just you, Rovi, but even with Bertain and Cardo at your side, the three of you combined won't stand a chance."

Zhong Chichen's smile faded as he spoke with a stern expression.

At that moment, Rovi's eyes shimmered with a rainbow hue, signaling his most powerful state.

He was prepared to give his all, depending on the Dragon Slaying Stage and his connection to the Everlands, perhaps to withstand Rovi's fierce assault.

The very next instant.

Both Rovi and his gaze settled on Yu Yuan.

Or more precisely, on the Dragon Slaying Stage.
