"Let's go." Rocky yanked Flint back to reality, as he had been frozen in shock. Together, they leapt onto the back of the massive ancient spiritual beast.
Then, the four wings of the ancient spiritual beast began to flap, causing waves of dust to ripple outward several dozen feet high. The entirety of the Wal City was engulfed in the strong winds, with sand and stone whirling everywhere.
The soldiers and spirit manipulators present felt as if they were caught in a strong storm, unable to even stand steadily. Some were even swept away by the violent gusts of wind!
In a matter of moments, the entire city fell into a state of chaos.
Flapping its massive wings, the ancient spiritual beast flew over the Wal City with Rocky and Flint on its back. The citizens below watched with mouths wide open as the huge shadow of the beast danced over the buildings. To Rocky and Flint, however, the people below looked like tiny black ants.
Just then, Ken flew over with Robin. They too landed on the back of the ancient spiritual beast.
"What are you waiting for? Go get them!" the peerless master barked. He knew that if he let them get away, there was no way he'd be able to explain this to the acting emperor.
Then, the peerless master summoned a five-star war dragon of the fifth grade. After mounting it, he chased after the ancient spiritual beast. More war dragons of three or four star level were summoned as the other spirit manipulators joined in pursuit. Soon, more than ten war dragons filled the skies, each one chasing after the ancient spiritual beast in the distance.
Rocky's eyes narrowed as he realized what was happening. "You ride on Ken first," he said to Flint.
Hearing Rocky's words, Flint shot a glance at Rocky. Although he still didn't recognize who this guy was, he obeyed Rocky without the slightest hesitation. In a heartbeat, he leapt and mounted the dragon next to him.
Once Flint was settled, Rocky sent Robin back to the Magic Spiritual Space. Then, he instructed Ken to take Flint away from the ancient spiritual beast. Lastly, he asked the ancient spiritual beast to turn around and face the swarm of dragons that were steadily closing in on them.
"Maybe I could take this as an opportunity to give Alston a gift," Rocky said with a devious smile. "I'm sure he'll be happy to receive it..."
As he spoke, the huge mouth of the ancient spiritual beast slowly opened to reveal a huge chaotic ball of light in its throat.
The peerless master, who had been in the lead, was shocked to see the chaotic light shining in the mouth of the ancient spiritual beast. Feeling the astonishing aura emanating towards him, the master felt fear seize his heart.
"What... What is it going to do?" The voice of the peerless master at the Divine Stage whispered softly, his voice trembling.
Just then, a beam of chaotic light burst forth from the mouth of the ancient spiritual beast. In the darkness of the night, it looked like a chaotic river of light that was streaming towards the Wal City at a frightening speed.
The beam of chaotic light shot out so quickly, the Divine Stage master and his war dragon barely had the time to react. In a flash, the light beam had struck their left side. The next thing he knew, he and his war dragon were plummeting towards the ground. The other spirit manipulators behind him were even more unlucky. Completely enveloped in the chaotic light, they were incinerated in the blink of an eye, without so much of a scream.
The beam of chaotic light didn't stop there, though. It extended all the way across the center of the Wal City. Like a scalpel cut to precision, the light beam divided the city into two halves, with every building caught in its path completely destroyed. Flames broke out in the surrounding streets, quickly spreading towards the far corners of the city.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of spirit manipulators screamed in pain and fled in all directions. The whole city was like hell on earth, flames blazing into the night sky.
