Three thousand streams of starlight cascaded down like a waterfall dyeing the entire city in a ghostly blue glow. The sky above cracked apart space splitting inch by inch as a massive violet red dragon head slowly emerged from the void. Its crimson eyes opened lazily gleaming with a faint glimmer of confusion and fury.
Everyone below instinctively raised their heads gazing at the colossal flame dragon whose body stretched several hundred meters across the sky. A deep echoing voice rolled out from the dragon's mouth filled with a quiet bewilderment.
"Was it you who awakened me"
Facing the dragon in midair Hun Miesheng stood with his hands behind his back his gaze calm and indifferent.
"You are free now"
"You no longer need to endure the chains of the seal go ahead take your vengeance upon this world as you please"
His voice resounded like a soul dragging bell reverberating in the ears of the flame dragon shaking its mind violently.
The dragon's massive body began to twist and coil violently its crimson pupils turning a bloody red as overwhelming wrath surged through its mind. An aura of savage slaughter began to spread in every direction scorching heat warping the surrounding space.
Yet before it could fully act the dragon's forehead and body lit up with bright glowing inscriptions as a vast complex sealing formation began to activate once more attempting to restrain the ancient beast once again.
"No"
"Damn you Pill Tower damn you Xuan Kongzi you think you can seal me again"
The dragon thrashed wildly against the restraints torrents of fire sweeping across the skies above Shengdan City igniting clouds and melting stone.
"Let me assist you then"
"Hehehehe"
Hun Miesheng extended his palm dark flames surged forth instantly incinerating the inscriptions and runes etched across the dragon's scales.
His fingers formed a complex seal as threads of black energy coalesced into demonic phantoms that shot directly into the dragon's body.
"You"
The dragon's massive frame trembled uncontrollably a trace of madness emerging in its expression as it roared to the heavens. Then with terrifying momentum the flame dragon plummeted from the sky hurling itself directly toward the heart of the city below.
Scorching heat erupted wherever it passed reducing everything to cinders with sharp cracking sounds echoing across rooftops and stone walls.
"What is that"
"Run"
Chaos erupted across the city as citizens screamed and fled while the flame dragon descended like a divine punishment.
"Ding your villain points plus thirty thousand"
Hun Miesheng's figure slowly faded into the shadows of the void.
"Impossible"
"The Three Thousand Burning Flame has broken free"
Three figures soared into the sky Xuan Kongzi Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi their expressions changed upon seeing the dragon's descent.
"Stop it now"
Xuan Kongzi shouted loudly as the three Dou Venerates rushed to intercept the dragon from different angles.
"Lock"
The surrounding space twisted as Dou Qi chains materialized from the air weaving into a cage to bind the Three Thousand Burning Flame in place.
"You three old fossils sealed me for a thousand years and now you still think you can imprison me"
The dragon laughed wildly a trace of deranged fury in its eyes which had now turned pitch black.
"Something is wrong its state is not normal"
Xuan Kongzi narrowed his eyes sensing the abnormal energy fluctuations coming from the dragon.
The flame dragon roared again purple red flames surged from its body and the stars in the sky seemed to respond as one by one celestial lights began to shine down coating its massive form.
Its body trembled again the flames around it burning even fiercer and the dragon's figure began to grow larger.
With a deafening boom the cage created by the combined effort of three Dou Venerates exploded into pieces under the dragon's monstrous power.
"Fall back"
Sensing the surging violent aura from the flame dragon Xuan Kongzi cried out in alarm.
The dragon forced the trio back before diving down into Shengdan City.
Its flames swept across the ground turning entire districts into seas of fire as buildings and towers were swallowed by the blaze. The starlight above continued to pour down empowering the Three Thousand Burning Flame whose aura only grew more terrifying.
"I am finally free"
"This city shall become your grave"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi's faces turned dark as screams echoed throughout the city.
Looking at the devastation caused by the rampant Heavenly Flame Xuan Kongzi finally lost his calm.
"All elders of Pill Tower hear my command"
"Form the sealing formation immediately"
"If it can be sealed then seal it if not then destroy it completely"
"Yes"
Six figures wearing Pill Tower elder robes emerged from the sky each taking position in one of nine cardinal points surrounding the Three Thousand Burning Flame.
A total of nine people
All Dou Venerates
In addition to the three peak Dou Venerates including Xuan Kongzi the others included one seven star high level Dou Venerate two five star peak Dou Venerates and three low level Dou Venerates of one and two stars.
Together they formed a complete sealing circle their hands forming seals as countless inscriptions materialized and condensed onto the dragon's body.
Xuan Kongzi took out a dragon scale and flicked it with his finger sending it into the air where it hovered in place.
"Seal"
The dragon scale shone brightly creating a light that enveloped the entire flame dragon.
"You dare try to seal me again"
The Three Thousand Burning Flame roared with fury the violet flames on its body flaring violently as it raised its eyes toward the heavens drawing down another wave of starlight.
The starfield erupted with radiance beams of light streaming toward the dragon's body.
"Lock"
Xuan Kongzi shouted once again and the myriad of runes around the dragon's body rotated rapidly forming a massive prison.
The runes glowed brilliantly forming a barrier that blocked the incoming starlight preventing even a trace from reaching the dragon.
"I will never be sealed again"
The flame dragon howled in defiance ramming its body repeatedly against the sealing formation.
But without the power of the stars its strength was quickly dwindling and its massive body began to show signs of weakness.
"This formation was designed specifically by the ancestor for you you cannot escape it"
"Drag it back into the star domain reseal it"
Xuan Kongzi commanded and all nine Dou Venerates responded in unison their seals moving with precision and power as the massive dragon was gradually pulled toward the fractured space of the star domain.
"No"
The Three Thousand Burning Flame let out a desperate cry its voice filled with dread
It could not endure another millennium of imprisonment
A sigh echoed from the void
"Truly a disappointment"
A voice as cold as the netherworld entered the ears of all present
The dragon suddenly froze as if bewitched its massive body trembling violently
Thin black threads spread from its forehead weaving across its body like a net
Terrifying energy erupted from the dragon's body forming a tremendous Dou Qi storm that swept across the entire battlefield
"Not good back away quickly it's going to self destruct"
Xuan Kongzi's pupils shrank as he roared at the others
"What"
"Self destruct"
Before the nine Dou Venerates could react fully a thunderous explosion erupted
The enormous body of the flame dragon shattered in an instant a tidal wave of violent energy blasting outward and throwing everyone hundreds of meters away
Below Shengdan City had become a sea of fire
Aside from the three main elders of Pill Tower the rest were all seriously wounded by the blast and the rebound of the formation vomiting blood as they fell
One elder had no time to retreat and was consumed entirely by the explosion
His translucent soul form fled the flames desperately escaping into the distance
But from the void a massive black hand emerged grabbing the soul and holding it tightly
"No please"
The elder cried in horror
"Die"
A faint voice answered
The soul shattered instantly without a trace
