Undying Warlord Chapter 446 Drowning

Chapter 446 Drowning

Spider web-like cracks spread through the whole golden dome. It flickered wildly, followed by an ear-piercing sound to reverberate through the surrounding the moment the golden dome burst apart.
A bunch of several hundred-meter-high waves shot toward the previously well-protected area of the Dragon Temple, where thousands of powerful existences were waiting for their doom.
Dilan was not able to see much in the Deep Sea water even though his eyesight was exceptional. He could see through the darkest places, but right now, his sight was drastically obstructed.
However, that was not a problem because it was pretty easy for Dilan to perceive his surroundings and to know where to go.
It didn't take much for him to perceive where powerful existences were located.
Following the water flow, Dilan was swept to the center of the Shiron crater, where the Dragon Temple was located. With a few powerful movements, Dilan was able to break through the surface of the water to take a few deep breaths before he was pulled down once again.
With enough oxygen to survive for quite some time, Dilan was ready to rumble. He tightened his grip over the Cursed Dagger and swam forward with powerful strokes.
His Life force might be quite low right now but he was doing exceptionally well despite being in the highly poisonous water that hurt everyone else tremendously.
'As long as a Mid Tier-4 Monster would not suddenly emerge, every single Dragonblood, who is not immune to highly potent poison and unable to swim will die!' Dilan thought in his mind, feeling that his plan had worked perfectly fine as he witnessed the tremendous damage the Tier-3 Earth Dragon had to face.
The tamed Earth Dragon was one of the strongest existences he had encountered in Milarn until now. Only the Red Dragon had been more powerful, but that existence was at Tier 4, and it was bound to become even stronger now even though its growth was severely restricted in Milarn. This was because there were simply no powerful existences with potent enough Essence Crystal to allow the Red Dragon to grow stronger.
Dilan swam vigorously toward the centerpiece of the Dragon Temple, the Golden Dragon Eye Tower. It radiated a powerful golden light, which attracted most monsters and Drakins towards itself, giving them the opportunity to gather up.
Dilan perceived more than 30 powerful beings that were trying to get to the Golden Dragon Eye, which was the Divinity Fragment that belonged to the Dragon Temple. The powerful beings hoped that the Divinity Fragment would release some of its remaining power to protect them. After all, they had sworn allegiance to the God, who had created the Divinity Fragment.
Yet, contrary to their hopes, the bright light of the Golden Dragon Eye was slowly diminishing!
The Golden Dragon Eye was trying to preserve its power and come up with a better solution to save the Dragon Temple rather than the loyal followers as they were bound to die one way or another.
Every Divinity Fragment could attain some sort of artificial intelligence as long as it had been nourished enough. Armed with that knowledge, it could communicate with the other Divinity Fragments and gain enough knowledge to figure out what it could do to counter the given predicament.
There were several things for the newly created Divinity fragment to do to ensure that the Dragon Temple in the Shiron crater wouldn't end up getting destroyed but figuring them out was not something a newly created Divinity fragment could do easily. It had merely been awarded a tiny trace of artificial intelligence thanks to the support of the Soul Collector that had been nurtured from a large mass of collected Souls.
Dilan didn't know that Divinity Fragments of a Temple could attain sentience, or be born with an artificial intelligence, which is why he swam toward the Golden Dragon Eye without any qualms. He emerged right in front of the eye and looked into it, trying to figure out if he could devour the Divinity Fragment in any way.
It would certainly be advantageous to make use of the Divinity Fragment if it was possible for him to absorb one, to begin with.
He reached out with his hand, intending to test out a few things when a shockwave reverberated through the turbulent water of the Deep Sea Tsunami.
The entire Shiron crater had been filled with water, yet, the Deep Sea Tsunami Mantra was not over. Water flooded the surrounding areas, they destroyed everything and it was only a matter of time before the monsters, the plants, and even the rich and nourishing soil around the Shiron crater would change drastically.
And all of this was just because Dilan wanted to make sure that the Dragon Temple would cease to exist. The four Magic Scrolls had been way too powerful in combination with the Deep Sea Tsunami Mantra. Thus, he destroyed the entire ecosystem in a radius of tens of kilometers just to make sure that the Dragon Temple would cease to exist.
He had plenty on his plate to take care of, and having countless Dragonbloods roaming around everywhere was certainly not something Dilan wanted to face at any point in the near future.
The Hordes of Chaos and Destruction were his biggest problem for now, and Dilan felt that they were not even the biggest issue. In fact, their appearance ought to help Milarn to grow up faster, which was essentially something pretty good.
Now that he saw all kinds of troublesome things with his own eyes when he was pushed back from the golden-colored shockwaves, Dilan recalled his Slaves.
'I just left them behind on their own, didn't I?' He recalled and he cursed himself.
'They should still be alive…maybe they were even fighting for their survival and accidentally helping the ordinary humans to become stronger like that…' Dilan wondered at this point.
He had never wanted any slaves under him, which is why he just forgot about them. Because he never gave them a specific order about what they should do, they were basically free to do whatever they wanted.
However, Dilan didn't know what kind of basic commands Slaves were given. With that in mind, he didn't even know if it might have been quite dangerous for him to leave them behind.
Maybe they would have stayed close to their master if he had not given them any orders, and by being too far away, they would suffer unimaginable pain!
Dilan's expression changed at this thought but he didn't really have much time to think about their problems because he encountered a wide-open maw that was slowly being corroded.
Despite the corrosion, the huge Earth Dragon wanted to sink its sharp teeth into Dilan or crunch him to death.
Little did it know that everything was for naught and that its death was either at his hands or the Deep Sea Tsunami!
Dilan made a swift motion with his arms and legs. He jumped up in the air, coming face to face with the Earth Dragon's snoot, which he grasped tightly with his free hand and pulled himself closer to the head of the huge Dragonblood.
Given the opportunity, Dilan pierced the Cursed Dagger deep inside the Earth Dragon's eye before he twisted it. Simultaneously, he released a small [Mana Slash] after he had summoned as many Basic Wind Spirits as he could summon.
A sudden shockwave originated from his dagger and the head of the already mortally injured Earth Dragon burst open.
It died, coloring the Deep Sea water red.
