BXBX NOVEL Chapter 845 - Descent of the Dark Eagle King
Chapter 845: Descent of the Dark Eagle King
News of the hole in the barrier, which was erected to protect Earth from invasion, spread throughout the world right away.
Those who were asleep were immediately woken up by friends and families informing them of the Dark Eagle King’s attack.
Most saw the monster king nose-diving towards Earth with red flame surrounding it as if it was a massive asteroid.
The Dark Eagle King’s wingspan measured more than a kilometer. If such a colossal object were to crash on Earth, the outcome would be catastrophic.
Since more cultivators had emerged on Earth, many people could see the monster king without the help of a pair of telescopes.
Some stronger cultivators could even feel the dominating energy that the descending Dark Eagle King was giving out.
It was as if a second sun had appeared and was on a collision course towards Earth.
Everyone was terrified. If some people thought that the cultivators and monster kings from the Tempest Ocean Realm were just threatening them, then it now felt more as if they were aimed by a gun at point-blank range.
The first thing everyone asked was, “How did this happen? How did the barrier break?”
It didn’t take long for people to find the answer.
“One of the formation eyes over the pacific ocean was destroyed, causing a breach in the barrier.”
Everyone gasped when they heard the news ten minutes later.
“Oh, no! We’re doomed!”
Many people were sweating in fear for their own lives.
That day could’ve actually marked the end of human civilization.
“How did that happen? Weren’t all the formation eyes heavily guarded? How was it destroyed?”
Suspicion rose in the midst of the chaos. The people of Earth knew that the formation eyes were some of the most heavily guarded sites on Earth. Even if the Resistance would not be able to defeat the defense mechanisms that were set up in these sites.
That was why the citizens of Earth were never that worried about the barrier being broken. Now that it happened, however, they became restless as it might just be the end of humans.
“The Tempest Ocean Realm cultivators and monster kings worked together. They even sent out more than twenty Flower Realms to attack the site. The Earth Federation didn’t even have the chance to fight back. Most of them were slaughtered on-sight…”
Details of the attack were soon announced. Everyone was shocked but somewhat unsurprised; the only living beings on Earth that could pull that off were the Tempest Ocean Realm cultivators and monster kings that were hiding on the planet.
“They also got some help from the Resistance that had been in hiding for a long time. They were the ones who guided them to the base.”
Another piece of news shocked the world once again. The Resistance had always been Earth Federation’s greatest concern. Even after decades had passed since the Earth Federation was formed, there were still those who fought to regain their former lands. These groups had garnered many supporters.
Among these supporters were millionaires, high-ranking political and military officials, and even some of the strongest cultivators on Earth.
If those two parties worked together, they would have the power to take out one of the formation eyes.
Information slowly began to pop up on the internet.
“We have already negotiated with the people on the moon. They’ve assured us that the Dark Eagle King will only go after Lu Xuan and spare the rest of us. We don’t have to worry about that.”
“The Earth Federation will definitely crumble once Dark Eagle King destroys Yunxuan Villa. The time to restore our nation will come!”
Only then did many citizens of Earth realize that not only were they facing enemies from the outside, but also from the inside. Naturally, most of the hate was directed at the Resistance.
Some people asked, “Aren’t these people afraid of Lu God?”
Others rebutted, “When were they ever scared? Plus, how can you be so sure that Lu Xuan can handle the attack on his own?”
The close Dark Eagle got to Earth, the more information appeared. Even normal people were able to see the monster king that was still descending now without the help of any equipment.
“Our equipment estimated that the monster that had broken past the barrier is in among the best of the Three Flower Realms. Heck, two of our instruments broke down when we tried to gauge its strength.”
All they received was more bad news.
“The Dark Eagle King is flying towards Yunxuan Villa now!”
Many people witnessed the Dark Eagle King suddenly stop its descent and flew towards Fu City where Yunxuan Villa was.
It was clear that someone was giving the monster directions.
It didn’t take long for the Dark Eagle King to arrive at the Huaxia region and the base city of Fu City. Nobody dared to stop the monster. To be more precise, nobody could. The monster was traveling at Mach 20 speed, which was much faster than anyone could imagine.
It was horrifying to watch the Dark Eagle King breaking the barriers that were protecting Yunxuan Villa in rapid succession.
Its dark golden feathers made it look like a divine bird instead of a monster.
“Lu Xuan! Come out and face me!”
As soon as the monster announced its arrival, an intense sword qi shot out from Yunxuan Villa.
The Dark Eagle King scoffed and said, “What’s this? A bug?” With a wave of its wing, it kicked up a storm and stopped the sword qi in its tracks.
Two people leaped out of Yunxuan Villa, and everyone could recognize them: they were Liu Wanrong and Yun Ling’er.
When Lu Xuan was gone for the past few years, these two were the pillars of Earth.
In just a few months, their power had increased tremendously once again.
“Let’s go!” The two unsheathed their swords and charged towards Dark Eagle King.
A nearly infinite barrage of sword qis filled the sky instantly, each with the power of a nuclear bomb.
Before the sword qis could reach the Dark Eagle King, the monster slowly morphed into the form of a man in his mid-thirties with a handsome yet sly face.
As a human, the monster looked at the incoming attack with disdain, clearly not perceiving his attackers as threats.
Liu Wanrong and Yun Ling’er’s sword cultivations were terrifying powerful. Even though they were still in the One Flower Realm, their prowess gave them a way into the Two Flower Realm. Even some of the weaker Two Flower Realm cultivators might’ve lost to them in terms of raw strength.
However, their strengths were nothing when facing Dark Eagle King. The latter plucked one of its feathers, which turned into a sword.
Their swords soon clashed. Naturally, the Dark Eagle King wasn’t a skilled swordsman when compared to Liu Wanrong and Yun Ling’er, but he was at a much higher realm. That was enough to compensate for his lack of swordsmanship.
Explosions echoed above Yunxuan villa. The two who were tasked to protect the villa were so shocked that they struggled to take the monster down even after joining hands.
On the opposite side, even the monster was a little surprised as well. It never thought that the two ladies he was fighting were able to stand their ground against him, to the point where it might take him quite some time to defeat them even with his full power.
Despite being in the One Flower Realm, their powers were already off the charts. It was almost as if they were somehow cheating!
