Chapter 33 – Withered Wood, Dragon’s Roar > (II)
Ye Yin Zhu’s eight fingers moved at the sa ti. A clear, chilling, bloodthirst brimming zither lody gracefully erged from his fingertips. Every simple note now resembled the downcast sobbing of a dragon, touching the soul with its sorrow that spread far and wide to affect everyone present.
Focusing the spiritual forces of forty mages, a qualitative change finally happened at this exact mont. The deep yellow radiance disappeared and was replaced with a layer of faint violet light. Unfortunately, because the mages beside Ye Yin Zhu were releasing their spiritual forces in vast quantities, they were currently unable to sense the change in Ye Yin Zhu. If not, they would certainly be astounded to see a miraculous ascension from Yellow Rank to Violet Rank.
That was right! Violet Rank, which was the most powerful rank on the continent.
Ye Yin Zhu suddenly opened his eyes, an electrifying, deep violet light shooting outward from his two black eyes. At this mont, however, his eyes were no longer clear and graceful; in fact, within his irises, only a chilling, lethal light remained.
Sura was frightened.
Fisichella was frightened.
They were both frightened because of the incomparably vast desire to murder emitting from Ye Yin Zhu’s body.
The Zither Sect cultivated the zither; the system was divided into three major ranks with twenty-seven levels, the latter part matching the Rainbow Ranking System’s twenty-seven levels. Upon entering the Violet Rank, there wouldn’t be a disparity in magical strength between the Zither Sect and Rainbow Ranking System. To Ye Yin Zhu, these three major ranks were divided into the Pure Zither Heart, Courageous Zither Heart, and Profound Violet Zither Heart. At this mont, he was focusing the spiritual forces of forty mages which initialized a fundantal change within himself. He transcended past the Courageous Zither Heart and directly into the Profound Violet Zither Heart Realm. The Profound Violet Zither Heart also had another na, which was—Zither Heart of Slaughter.
Atop the city walls, if any of them were clear-headed, they would, without exception, be stupefied by the scene happening before them. A ring of violet light surrounded Ye Yin Zhu. In this mont, he seed to have beco the center of the entire world.
The beastn forgot to attack.
The Dragon Cavalry Knights felt panicked.
At this mont, listening to that gradually quickening, gradually chilling and bloodthirsty zither music, both sides seed to forget about the enemy opposite them.
Perkins sucked in a breath of cool air. “Violet Rank Great Magister, the peak of strength amongst the humans.”
Dis bellowed, “What are we waiting for? Get to the top. Don’t tell we’re waiting for him to finish his magic spell before we attack?” At his bellow, the beastn legion finally began to move. But except for the Behemoths, the Apen, Tigern, and Leopardn’s speed had clearly slowed down significantly. This was because they could feel the dense pressure within the air, one that ca from the powerful pressure of dragons.
At this mont, Ye Yin Zhu’s mind could not fully control his magic. The ascension to the Profound Zither Heart Realm had actually destabilized his control. His dark eyes flickered with a trendous desire to slaughter the heavens and earth. The eight fingers that moved across the Withered Wood, Dragon’s Roar Zither transford into a phantom.
Within the zither music, the clear and chilling tones completely disappeared. All that remained was the bloodthirst.
Fisichella glanced at Ye Yin Zhu and, with difficulty, suppressed the fear in his heart. Concentrating all of his dou qi, he nearly shouted himself hoarse. “Milan soldiers! Abandon the dragons and retreat!” Yelling this line was precisely the task Ye Yin Zhu had assigned him.
When they heard his first shout, the Dragon Cavalry woke from the stupor the zither music had placed them in. When he shouted the second command, everyone was able to clearly hear it. At this mont, as the strongest amongst the human species, the Dragon Cavalry Knights could feel a trendous change occurring within their dragon mounts. The dragons’ bodies unexpectedly expanded. That was right; they expanded. The dragons regained their breaths, but their breathing beca several tis heavier than normal. Their low roars resembled the rumble that preceded an approaching rainstorm.
The beastn army were already dashing forward, and the three beastn races, in a pair of wing formations, pincer attacked the Dragon Cavalry. The Behemoths advanced with heavy steps, the rumbling resembling a at grinder. Oliveira could already see the intense, bloodthirsty light within the Gold Behemoths’ eyes.
Abandon the dragons? And then, without a mont to spare, renounce any resistance? The beastn had already arrived!
At this mont, Oliveira’s potential to beco a famous general in the future erged. With a clear head, he connected Ye Yin Zhu’s final warning before he left with the current situation and reacted quickly. He shouted, “Dragon Cavalry, listen to the command! Abandon the Gigantic Dragons. Retreat!” Grasping the dragonspear in hand, he imdiately dismounted his Gigantic Dragon.
Regardless of the Dragon Cavalry Knights’ hesitation at the prince’s order, they wouldn’t dare disobey their commander. This was the Dragon Cavalry Creed. With the inclusion of the Milan Institution for Magic and Martial Arts students, the five hundred and sixty strong Dragon Cavalry quickly dismounted their dragons and retreated in the direction of Konya City. This order felt strange to them. Their Gigantic Dragons unexpectedly stood motionless, not moving even a fraction.
The Leopardn’s weapons were their sharp claws and rapid speed. Apart from the Apen’s navigation skills, their weapons were enormous wolf tooth clubs. The strong Tigern used excessively heavy hamrs. At the sa ti that the Dragon Cavalry Knights pulled back, with the dragons still arranged in a horizontal line formation, the beastn had already made contact.
Hong——
A Tigerman swung his heavy hamr, smashing it heavily against an Earthbound Swift Dragon’s back. At first glance, a Tigerman wouldn’t suffer any losses from confronting an Earthbound Swift Dragon. But sothing happened that shocked the beastn. The head of the Earthbound Swift Dragon bore the heavy hamr’s smash, and to that unexpected and unimaginable attack, the dragon’s weaker body actually didn’t move a single bit. Its dragon head rely turned toward that Tigern.
The Tigerman stared back, looking into a pair of bloodshot dragon eyes. That bloody red color held a trace of black within it. This was the first ti the tigerman felt this, and also the final ti he would feel this in his entire life. Because in the next mont, his strong body was already torn to shreds by this Earthbound Swift Dragon.
The tad dragons went insane. Five hundred and sixty tad dragons of the Dragon Cavalry went mad at the sa ti. The beastn who were dashing closer didn’t know when, but all of the tad dragons’ eyes had beco bloodshot. In a flash, the tad dragons broke out and charged wildly into the beastn in front of them.
As the most powerful beastn army division, the Tigern could completely contend against tad dragons. But at this mont, in front of these tad dragons, they were as weak as paper paste. They actually confronted the tad dragons, but regardless if whether it were an Earthbound Swift Dragon or Maginot Iron Dragon, the mont the dragons went berserk, their attack, defense, and speed tripled at the very least. The dragons went completely berserk and charged into the horde of beastn.
Originally, the beastn should have been able to unilaterally slaughter the dragons. Who would have thought a complete reversal would occur when the knights dismounted from their dragons. The five hundred and sixty berserk tad dragons resembled five hundred and sixty of the sharpest daggers to exist, ruthlessly tearing apart the beastn plundering legion inside out.
The bloodthirsty zither music still resounded throughout Brenner Pass. That violet light emitting from Ye Yin Zhu’s body was a chilling brilliance, a result of Level 1 of the Profound Violet Zither Heart. On the battlefield, the wind dripped with bloody mists, as if it were accompanying the zither lody.
> was one of the great nine famous songs of the Zither Sect, the effect: Exploding Dragons.
This song, >, had another na. It was also known as the Dragon Extinction lody. Only with the Withered Wood, Dragon’s Roar Zither could this song’s might be truly brought out. Level 1 Violet Rank of > could affect any creature with dragon blood of rank 8 or below. Who would have thought that Ye Yin Zhu’s long preparations was for this zither song that, rather than targeting the enemy, targeted his own side?
✶
Dis was rushing forth and only sent a Maginot Iron Dragon flying explosively. The sudden change had caught him and Perkins unprepared. As a rank 9 magical beast, their attacks on a Maginot Iron Dragon’s defense should originally be like smashing apart soft tofu—their own attacks completely useless against him. Now his violent fist could only send a Maginot Iron Dragon flying explosively instead of killing it explosively. While the Behemoths were shocked, the five hundred and sixty tad dragons were already tearing apart the beastn army.
“Crazy, these bastards are crazy. I’ll kill them,” Dis angrily thundered, using this roar to gloss over his current panic. This was the first ti he had co across such a change in the tad dragons in all his years at war. Were these still tad dragons? This increase in firepower, in the blink of an eye… these tad dragons could even match up against a Genuine Gigantic Dragon.
Hong——
An explosion made the earth and beastn plundering legion suddenly shake at the sa ti. The violent explosion was the result of an Earthbound Swift Dragon’s body suddenly detonating. Its blood beca bloody arrows, its scales and bones shattering to pieces instantly and becoming frighteningly lethal weapons. With the head of this Earthbound Swift Dragon as the explosion’s epicenter, all of the beastn in a range of thirty ters were unable to withstand it and were being run through by a dragon horn or dragon bones. Struck down, the beastn’s corpses slowly fell to the ground one by one, causing the battlefield to appear to have a circle of open space on it.
The head of this Earthbound Swift Dragon exploded and comnced the start of a massacre. That bloodthirsty zither lody, which seed like hell itself, was accompanied by roaring explosions, the tad dragon’s detonating body signaling a surging bloody light that appeared within the beastn plundering legion like a scythe. Apart from the Behemoths, the remaining three great beastn corps’ numbers were steadily cut down.
A Maginot Iron Dragon’s explosion’s destructive power was greater than an Earthbound Swift Dragon’s as they wore heavier armor. The mont they exploded, that armor accompanied the huge body and beca a terrifyingly lethal weapon as well. Not to ntion the Apen, Tigern, and Leopardn, even the Berserk Behemoths that ca across an exploding Maginot Iron Dragon would be sent flying away by the bombardnt, riddled with cuts.
“Not good, it’s waves of iron shrapnel,” Perkins snarled crazily. A succession of several exploding tad dragon heads had him command the Behemoths to no longer save the other three beastn forces nearby and to completely focus on gathering together. Relying on their incomparably strong defense, they huddled together like tortoises. The nearby Berserk Behemoths’ rampage changed in a flash, allowing them to withstand the frightening destructive power of the tad dragons’ explosion.

This was the Dragon Extinction lody. Relying on the Withered Wood, Dragon’s Roar Zither to play it, the song resonated with the souls of the tad dragons. Like the most frightening stimulant ever, it caused the dragon’s blood and life force to imdiately flare up and combust. Based on the different dragons’ strengths, the duration of the zither song’s influence was also different. But as long as they were affected by the zither song, the final outco would always be an exploding dragon.
Five hundred and sixty tad dragon heads exploded. These five hundred and sixty violent explosions struck Brenner Pass like an earthquake. The tad dragons of the Dragon Cavalry had not a single one with strength exceeding rank 6. Under the influence of the >, which echoed by ans of the Sound Magnification spell and was Violet Rank in strength, the tad dragons were unable to escape.
