Chapter 517 - Dragon Prince vs. Monarch of Skies (1)

Seeing all of those light projectiles shooting towards him, Gu Long just raised his Dragon Slayer Halberd, and with one precise slash, he destroyed all of them in one go.

Unfortunately for the dragon prince, this tiny window of opportunity was exploited by Monarch of Skies Zabofel, who cast one of his most powerful light-attributed spells and within one second, he was hit by an enormous light spear directly to his chest.

The light spear executed by Monarch of Skies Zabofel caused Gu Long to crash on earth, as his fall created a small earthquake from the impact.

When the dust settled, Monarch of Skies Zabofel almost got a heart attack when he saw that his opponent was not hurt even a bit.

This was thanks to two factors.

One of them was the Empyrean-Grade Armor that Gu Long was wearing, which was given to him by his father.

Even though the armor was just in its basic state, because Gu Long lacked the power to activate it, it was still providing absolutely frightening degrees of defense.

And the second reason was that, before the fight, Gu Long cast countless protective spells on his being, if he was to be hit... that was something that he learned from his father, to be always prepared for any alternatives.

"That move almost hurt me..."

Gu Long muttered as his draconic eyes looked at the Monarch of Skies Zabofel intensively before he grinned that this would be a good fight. He had to admit that the Monarch of Skies Zabofel was strong, strong enough to injure him severely if he was not prepared beforehand...

"At least this would be entertaining... try not to day instantly."

Gu Long grinned, gripping his Dragon Slayer Halberd; he mobilized all of his power and shot toward the Monarch of Skies Zabofel, who was floating high in the skies.

In a split of second, he disappeared from the crater and stabbed the Monarch of Skies Zabofel in his stomach, causing him to cough a mouthful of blood.

Using the Great Destruction Teleportation Realm Spell almost instantaneously, he teleported thousands of kilometers away from the Monarch of Skies before tens of Magic Circles appeared around Gu Long and shot the Nuclear Beams toward the injured Monarch of Skies.

Naturally, the as experienced Magus, the Monarch of Skies Zabofel, didn't waste any of time.

He used his strongest defensive technique and in a split of a moment, a translucent crystal cocoon appeared around him, protecting him from the ferocious barrage of the Nuclear Beams.

Gu Long was actually happy that his opponent didn't die in a single exchange because seeing the Monarch of Skies Zabofel resisting his advances made Gu Long's draconic instincts to flare to the top.

It was relatively long since he had anyone worthy of a good life-and-death match and right now, the Monarch of Skies Zabofel proved himself to be that match.

As the dragon prince was contemplating and predicting the next move, the three pairs of wings of the Monarch of Skies started shining in bright light as the density of the light elemental particles increased and all of his injuries started disappearing at a visible rate.

"So they have something like transformation mode or he has been holding back."

Whatever it was, Gu Long was sure that the Lightwing Species to which the Monarch of Skies belonged was showing its might when he felt some kind of pseudo-light-domain that appeared in diameter of several thousands of kilometers.

Even though it was only a pseudo-domain, it was still pretty strong and provided a significant boost to the capabilities and combat prowess of the Monarch of Skies.

His healing and regeneration rate was proof of that, not to mention Gu Long could sense the power of Monarch of Skies skyrocketing.

Instantly, hundreds of light portals appeared behind Monarch of Skies and they shot hundreds of thousand light projectiles towards the Gu Long, who grinned in anticipation seeing that barrage.

In a split of a moment, he transformed into his true draconic form with his Empyrean-Grade Armor covering his entire dragon form as he used his wings to create a cocoon around him to protect himself from the light projectiles.

Even though they were individually rather weak, together, they posed a huge threat even to him.

As the barrage of the light projectiles ended, suddenly, all of the light portals that the Monarch of Skies conjured started fusing together into one, creating a huge sphere of concentrated Holy Light.

The Monarch of Skies controlled to change its shape into a huge golden light sword and slashed toward Gu Long, who was still protecting himself.

He opened his huge draconic jaws and instantaneously, a huge wave of draconic flame hit the sword as it stopped the advance of the golden light sword.

Not only it stopped the advance of the golden light sword, but it was continuously weakening the most powerful attack of the Monarch of Skies.

That was because Gu Long was simultaneously using the Devour Clan Trait to weaken the golden light sword while his dragon flames were stopping the attacks.

Seeing his strongest and most powerful attack failing, the Monarch of Skies almost got a heart attack from rage because he was sure that this would be strong enough to kill the dragon; he knew that this attack was strong enough, even seriously, to injure the Bloodline Monarch.

But he forgot to take into account that the dragons, especially those with powerful bloodlines, had absolutely frightening physical capabilities and he was also wearing very powerful armor that effortlessly adjusted to his humongous dragon body.

Seeing that the trump card failed, the Monarch of Skies turned around and instantly entered the Sky City and used all of his possessions to activate the defenses of the Sky City in an attempt to quell the dragon invader.

He knew that the dragon probably coveted the entire Sky City and the Monarch of Skies Zabofel would never leave the Sky City behind because it would be giving up on everything he built during the past tens of thousand of years.
