Chapter 276: Power Of Existential Plane, Rebirth

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The thick, muscular dragon tail turned into an iron whip, slashing toward Meng Lei, who had transformed into a Divine Netherworld Phoenix.
It came as fast as lightning with great force and momentum. It was mighty and forceful that could destroy heaven and earth!
If it hits its target, Meng Lei would surely be squashed into meat sauce. However, just as the tail was about to hit Meng Lei, he vanished. When he reappeared, Meng Lei was already at the back of the Dark Demonic Dragon.
Meng Lei swiped his gleaming phoenix claws viciously. A ripping sound echoed as the Dark Demonic Dragon’s back was scratched, leaving deep fissures.
Howl!
The Dark Demonic Dragon let out a cry of pain as it turned its head to spit out black dragon breath. However, in front of the powerful teleportation, how could it even touch Meng Lei?
Slash!
Meng Lei teleported away and swiped his claws down as black blood and flesh flew everywhere.
“Damn it!”
The Dark Demonic Dragon roared in rage and released its Demon’s Domain, attempting to trap Meng Lei in his position. Though the Demon’s Domain could seal the air around, Meng Lei could not be suppressed.
Another teleportation!
Slash!
The following rounds of battles were almost the same, where Meng Lei constantly teleported around and attacked any openings he saw. The Dark Demonic Dragon simply had no answer to that.
Every single furious roar only exchanged for its battered body!
On the other hand, Meng Lei was neither out of breath nor red-faced, becoming more valiant the more he fought as he dominated over the Dark Demonic Dragon. To be honest, teleportation was such a huge BUG!
Dark Demonic Dragon used Demon’s Domain, Meng Lei used Teleport!
Dark Demonic Dragon used physical attack, Meng Lei used Teleport!
Dark Demonic Dragon used magic attacks, Meng Lei used Teleport!
No matter what the Dark Demonic Dragon threw at Meng Lei, he only needed to teleport to evade any attacks.
Of course, other than teleportation, Meng Lei possessed incredible speed and a pair of phoenix claws that could slice through the Dark Demonic Dragon’s demonic body.
What did the Dark Demonic Dragon have?
Its powerful and strong demonic body, its terrifying power, its destructive dragon breath.
Upon comparing both sides, Meng Lei naturally restricted the Dark Demonic Dragon.
No matter how tough your demonic body is, or how powerful you are, or how terrifying your dragon breath is, they are all useless if you can’t hit me!
“Mr. Cyrus, is that all you got?” Meng Lei said with a thundering voice, “If that’s it, then today will be the day you fall!”
“Human deity!” The Dark Demonic Dragon let out a deep growl. “You have well and truly enraged me! I’m going to tear you into a million pieces! Power of existential plane, Suppression!”
Buzz...
A massive amount of force came rushing from all around and pressed onto Meng Lei’s body.
This force was incredibly pervasive and terrifying. It was much heavier than Mount Tai and Mount Everest putting on millions of G forces on Meng Lei’s body!
Meng Lei froze at his spot as his bones made cracking sounds as if he could be crushed into dust anytime.
“What powerful suppression!” Meng Lei’s expression changed a little. “It’s not Demon’s Domain. It’s also not one of those special suppression abilities, while it seems very similar to Horace’s divine kingdom’s power. What exactly is that then?”
Meng Lei was rather puzzled.
“Human deity, you’ll pay the price for your foolishness and ignorance!” The Dark Demonic Dragon let out a roar before sweeping its claw down.
This time, under the restraint of the existential plane’s power, Meng Lei could neither use Teleport or Elemental Transformation as he got hit cleanly.
Boom!
A great, vast force erupted. An unmatchable force hit Meng Lei’s body as if he was thunderstruck, almost breaking his bones apart.
“F*ck! This power is really... strong!”
Meng Lei licked the blood on the corner of his lips and gasped.
“Die! Ignorant fool!”
The Dark Demonic Dragon let out a sinister laugh, and rounds of frenzied attacks like a thunderstorm ensued—using either its sharp claws, or its heavy tail, or its destructive dragon breath...
At this juncture, the situation had turned around completely, opposite of what happened just now.
“Master!”
Bubbles and the rest shouted angrily and tried to rescue Meng Lei, but 45 Demon Lords and Great Demon Lords were in their way.
“Kekeke! Your opponents are us!”
“Lowly human deity, I can’t wait to taste your flesh!”
“Kill these damn deities...”
Boom, boom, boom!
Under the 45 Demon Lords and Great Demon Lords attacks, Bubbles and the rest were in a precarious circumstance, which might be worse than Meng Lei’s situation.
“Human deity, the only thing you can blame is your arrogance to trespass into my territory! If not, I would not have been able to deal with you!” The Dark Demonic Dragon attacked while it laughed sinisterly. “Here in the Demonic Dragon Continent, you are just meat on the chopping block waiting for me to kill anytime!”
“What exactly is this ability?” Meng Lei barked a question.
“Since you’re about to die, there’s no harm telling you. This is the power of the existential plane.” The Dark Demonic Dragon gave a smug smile. “I have refined the Heart of the Existential Plane, and I am able to use the power of the existential plane of the Demonic Dragon Continent! Human deity, you might be powerful, but you are no match against the power of an existential plane on the material level.”
“Power of an existential plane?” Meng Lei came to a sudden realization as he asked further, “Then how did you refine a Heart of the Existential Plane of a material plane?”
“To refine a Heart of Existential Plane, you need to find one before you can refine it!” The Dark Demonic Dragon sneered. “But you’ll never get the chance since you’ll die in my hands without any chance to rise again!”
“Die? I’m not certain about that!” Meng Lei took a breath and said, “You are indeed rather powerful to be able to push me this far, Mr. Cyrus. But it would be a pity since you can’t kill me!”
He had only just spoken when thick black flames lit up around Meng Lei and completely engulfed him from inside out.
His head was burning;
His limbs were burning;
His intestines were burning;
Every part of his body was in flames.
Gradually, the viscous Netherworld Divine Fire formed a huge solid-like black cocoon, wrapping up Meng Lei within!
The cocoon was inscribed with strange fire runes. They were like tadpoles full of life squirming around in a special rhythm.
“That’s...”
The Dark Demonic Dragon watched the fire cocoon forming abruptly before its pupils contracted suddenly, and it exclaimed, “Rise From The Ashes! Damn it! This rascal dares to use Rise From The Ashes at this timing!”
The Divine Netherworld Phoenix’s race was well known across the Void, dominating in the Netherworld. Hence, it would be difficult for Cyrus not to have heard about them.
Of course, Cyrus knew the Divine Netherworld Phoenix’s exclusive Innate Special Ability—Rise From The Ashes!
In the lifetime of a Divine Netherworld Phoenix, it must complete nine rebirths before it became a true adult and reached its peak, but it was incredibly difficult.
This was due to every rebirth came with an immense amount of risk—any carelessness would burn itself to death till it turned into ashes and the divine spirit was destroyed. That was why it was so dangerous!
For that reason, every time before it went through Rise From The Ashes, the Divine Netherworld Phoenix would normally do a full preparation and find a safe hidden spot to perform this Innate Special Ability.
Who else would be like Meng Lei who—midway through the battle—decided to perform Rise From The Ashes after seeing that he was losing?
This isn’t a goddamn Rise From The Ashes, it’s just the same as a moth flying into the fire—seeking death!
“Foolish human deity, since you’re seeking death, then don’t blame me for granting your wish!”
The Dark Demonic Dragon gave a deep roar as demonic aura gathered in its mouth and shot the demonic aura ball toward Meng Lei like a cannon.
“Die! Human deity!”
The demonic aura ball was formed with an extremely compressed demonic aura containing huge destructive powers. If it hit, the black fire cocoon would surely be blasted into pieces.
“Master!”
Bubbles and the rest shouted anxiously, though they could not help Meng Lei with all the Demon Lords surrounding them. They could only watch a ball of demonic aura shot toward Meng Lei!
“Human deity, you’re finished!” The Dark Demonic Dragon sneered. However, right before the ball hit the fire cocoon, a space vortex appeared out of nowhere and devoured the black aura ball.
“What?”
The Dark Demonic Dragon was stunned as it could not believe its eyes.
Where did that space vortex come from?
“It vanished?”
Bubbles and the other nine deities, plus the 45 Demon Lords and Great Demon Lords were all in shock. How did such a ferocious attack vanish just like that?
What kind of situation was this?
The Dark Demonic Dragon growled and sprayed out another dragon breath of destruction, the result remained the same as the dragon breath was devoured by the space vortex too!
“Goddamn it! What’s happening?”
The Dark Demonic Dragon was going crazy. Just then, a little demon flapping its wings appeared in front of the fire cocoon.
“Little rascal, taking advantage of others’ perilous state isn’t a good habit!” The little demon looked at the Dark Demonic Dragon angrily and shouted, “Wait till Meng Lei finishes his rebirth process before you fight him, understand?”
Compared to the Dark Demonic Dragon’s humongous body, the little demon was too small to command any authority, especially when it called the Dark Demonic Dragon ‘little rascal’. The scene was as comical as anyone would expect!
Yet, the Dark Demonic Dragon did not object. Instead, it looked at this little demon with a face in horror, as if it saw a primeval behemoth!
“You better follow as I say! Wait for him to complete his rebirth process before resuming your battle! Or else I’ll skin you alive!”
The little demon threatened one last time before it disappeared. The Dark Demonic Dragon was panting hard while it broke out in cold sweat.
It did not attack the fire cocoon anymore and stayed at the same place obediently!
This scene left the demon subordinates clueless about what was happening as they looked at each other in the eyes.
“What happened to our great master?
“Afraid of a little demon?”
“What exactly is going on then?”
They could not understand what was in the mind of the Dark Demonic Dragon. If they did, they would be scared to death!
“Higher deity! That’s definitely the aura of a higher deity! This damned human deity, he has a higher deity supporting him!”
Terror gripped the Dark Demonic Dragon.
It neither knew the little demon nor its background, but the aura it emitted was definitely over the level of an intermediate deity!
That little demon was a higher deity!
A higher deity!
Even though it seemed mighty now, it could get smashed into pieces with one slap if it faced a higher deity!
That was the terrifying part of it. It would never have thought that there was a higher deity on Meng Lei’s side!
What could it even do now?
