Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 363: Descending Lights

In Star Luo Continent.

The audience hall which was a dome that was forty meters high, spacious with civil and military officials standing on both sides.

Dai Yueyan who was sitting in an ivory and golden throne that had the white symbol on it. He was above a small fortress-like structure that was on top of the stairs that led to the throne.

Around him were a dozen guards and attendants who were giving him reports after reports as he looked them over.

Next to him was his father, Dai Tianlong, and En Ci who were also sitting down but going off reports as well. They were all dressed in their royal clothing except for En Ci who was dressed in principal clothing.

"These reports are saying there are traces of them... But they all end up being nothing."Muttered Dai Yueyan with Dai Tianlong nodding his head.

"As if they're trying to mess with us." Said En Ci causing both Dais to frown.

The Holy Spirit Cult presence that has been around Star Luo had not only vanished but had also left traces behind. Traces that didn't give the Star Luo Empire any information on what happened to them or where they went.

"Could it be the Monarch's work?"

"Possibly, they did take over the Duo Spirit Empire, and they are at the peak of this world... It's not impossible for them to be able to do this."Muttered En Ci but Dai Tianlong furrowed his brows.

"But for this long teacher? I don't think they can hide from the searches of four continents..."

"I agree but at the moment, this seems to be the reality."

As they were talking amongst themselves, an attendant came with another letter, passing it to the guard.

"This is for?"

"Emperor Dai Yueyan."

Dai Tianling decided to surrender the title of Emperor to his son after he had awakened. From how well his son was doing ever since his sister surrendered the title and had him take the place as Emperor.

He had always wanted Dai Yuelong to take the throne as he didn't want his daughter to take on such a tiring responsibility.

He wouldn't admit out loud, but he wanted his daughter to continue being carefree with no responsibility.

Yet it was something he couldn't show outwards, especially around these attendants and his enemies.

But he felt Dai Yueyan was still too immature to take up the title. Dai Tianling feared his son might be taken advantage of by these attendants and officials.

But to his surprise, his son was able to keep them in check after being crowned. Although En Ci told him it was also due to the slaughter that Dai Yun'er and her friends committed in the hall.

That helped make these officials and attendants keep themselves in check and making sure not to cross the line.

The guard glanced at the attendant before passing the letter to Dai Yueyan who took the letter and began reading it.

"What's wrong?" Questioned En Ci as he saw Yueyan smiling.

"Yun'er just sent me a letter. It seems Tang Wulin and the others have left for the Abyssal Plane."

"Already? Well, I guess it shouldn't be a surprise; it's best to get rid of such a threat as soon as possible."Said Dai Tianlong with En Ci nodding his head.

"Is that all she said?"

"Well... She said she also found her love-"

"What..." Said Dai Tianlong with a glare causing Dai Yueyan to flinch while his lips twitch.

"Which rascal dares to claim to be a match for my daughter? Did she tell you his name? Nevermind, it has been a while since I have been to Shrek. Brother En Ci, you said you wanted to visit Shrek right? Let's make haste now."Said Dai Tianlong, causing En Ci and Yueyan to glance at each other.

Not knowing whether to laugh or cry as they saw the inner overprotective father coming out of Dai Tianlong.

Both of them guessed he had the freedom to express himself more, after passing the title of Emperor over.

"Father maybe you should-"

"Quite! Isn't Yun'er your sister! You should be the first-"

Dai Tianlong couldn't say anything else as he and En Ci's expression instantly changed.

As their spiritual sense and instincts acted up causing them to look upwards, just as the sounds of glass shattering ring through.

The whole Star Luo Empire.

#

The sky began shaking as three lights began appearing above the clouds, they were silverish-dark.

Before three pillars broke through the sky, descending from outer space, smashing into the continent of Star Luo.

The towers were gigantic, reaching as high as a mountain with them giving off a mellow silver light. At the top of the tower, an orb of light began to shine before they shot upwards.

Straight into space, expanding outwards like bridges as if they were connecting outer space with the world.

#

Many people were shocked as they stared up towards the sky. What was going on?

It wasn't just the citizens in the Empire of Star Luo but all of the other cities, organizations, and schools on the continent.

They saw the three piercing lights descending from space, which they thought were ordinary meteors that occasionally fell.

But it is shown that it wasn't what they thought as they saw a bridge being formed from the continent into the sky.

They saw the bridge glimmer in the sky, with sparks and wisp falling to the ground. But to their confusion, they couldn't see anything that comes down or any changes.

"This doesn't seem like anything good..." Muttered En Ci as he narrowed his eyes trying to discern what was going on.

"Indeed, this is no different than as if something is trying to come here..."

"Or trying to invade."

"We should contact the other continent, to see if they have the same problem while also informing them." Said Dai Yueyan with a grim look as he looked towards his attendants.

Who were shocked but swiftly began to calm themselves before moving to complete what their Emperor told them to do.

"It seems this world might undergo another change..." Muttered En Ci with a frown.

"It shouldn't be too bad... Right?" En Ci only sighed, not answering Dai Tianling.

With his Limit Douluo cultivation, his senses war far stronger and sharper than all of the soul masters on this continent. So he could think that whatever these pillars were, it wasn't something good for the plane.

If he was, to be honest, it might even be more dangerous than the previous threats.

"Strange... Truly strange, this appeared right after Tang Wulin and the others peaked leaving for the abyssal plane."

"Teacher, do you think they are colliding with the abyssal plane?"

"Maybe or maybe not, right now we need to get a team ready to go check out the place-"

"My Emperor!" A voice rang out as someone came running inside of the audience hall in a hurry.

This caused the guards to release their soul spirits and aimed their soul cannons towards the person.

"Wait! I have news from the Tang Sect!"

"Speak." Said Dai Yueyan with his eyes narrowed while waving his hand at his guard.

"My emperor... Tang Sect master on the Star Luo, Hu Jie has told us that some creatures are leaving the pillars."

"What!"

Shouts from all over the audience hall were resounding as the attendants, officials and even guards showed surprise. While Dai Yueyan, Dai Tianlong, and En Ci had a grim look.

'So it really is an attack... Can this plane not get a breather? It has only been a few months.'

"Are these creatures doing anything?"

"Yes my lord, once they came out of the pillar-like structure, they started attacking the Tang Sect Base. The sect master has requested reinforcement and also informed us that we should send reinforcement to the other pillars."Said the man causing Dai Yueyan to narrow his eyes.

"Contact the Four Gods and have them move out towards to reinforce the other sects around the base. Quickly hurry up with contacting the other continents before things get out of hand!"

The man nodded his head before turning around and running out of the hall. The people around Dai Yueyan were also moving, opening up their communication, and relaying the Emperor orders.

"I will move out and go help the Sect Master."

"Are you a sure teacher? What if they try and attack-"

"Then I will rush back here but for now; it's best to help the others around. This might simply be the beings that are trying to invade, probing us."Said En Ci as he got up from his seat.

"For now, I leave everything to you both."

"I will come with you, teacher." Said Dai Tianling as he stood up causing En Ci to arch a brow.

"Don't tell me you're going to use the same excuse as me?"

"Of course."

"... Cheeky brat alright let's hurry up." Said En Ci with a nod of his head before he vanished.

"Haha." Dai Tianling released a laugh as he also vanished, leaving Dai Yueyan with a frown.

'Please stay safe, father and uncle.'

A firm and fleshy palm smashed down, smashing away the creatures that were charging towards the Tang Sect base.

The creature is humanoid but a bit taller than a human with six arms, sharp edges, and four eyes that pulse with light. These creatures were donned in ancient armor with various weapons in their hand.

"Rawr!"

An inhuman roar rang through as these creatures jumped over their fallen comrades and charged forward.

Some of them had a weird lance that shined with deadly energy, but it released a pulse of light. That smashed into the Tang Sect members and blew away, alongside the walls of the base.

"Be careful! They have a long-range weapon! Title Douluos charge with me!" Shouted Hu Jie who was known as the Smiling Douluo.

The creatures hacked down with its spear, moving to cleave into the Hu Jie who only snorted as thrust out his palm. Turning the creature into a bloody mist, before moving forward with his hand turning into blurs.

He was smashing, trashing, and plowing through the thousands of thousands of creatures that were coming down.

From what he could tell, they were at best at the level of a Soul King, making the slaughter simply easy.

But their weapons were a different story as Hu Jiu could tell they contain energy on par with a Title Douluo. Making it so each blast could wipe out a massive number of their members.

It's because of this that Hu Jie had him and the other Title Douluo take point while the rest fired the soul technology.

'We just have to wait until reinforcement comes.' Thought Hu Jie as he released a roar before his body gave off a golden light.
