Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 1000 – 1000

Arthur passed through that gigantic whirlpool feeling like his body was torn to pieces by the impact. It wasn't the water which caused this but the assault of strange strength and energy that kept pressuring over him.

"Dammit! It's that bastard's energy," Arthur was already familiar with the energy from the dark angel grandmaster mage. He didn't hesitate to use his own energy pillar to assault this hostile energy and nullify it.

The clash was fierce, however that didn't prevent him from pushing himself deeper. He felt repulsive force coming from the deepest part of this hole, but that didn't stop him.

He expected such a situation. After all this was the main base of the grandmaster's attack on his empire. Such a base must have some sort of fierce protection. But to dominate it, Arthur had to crush that residual force in the heart of this flying island.

Despite feeling much pain all over his body, he brandished his sword and started using his technique. He used his golden pearl's power to hit everything around, rapidly expanding his pillar of energy.

He knew this clash would be decided the moment his energy managed to stabilize itself. It was his first time to see the energy pillar of his being pressured and eroded by someone's dark energy.

But the answer to this puzzlement came from the golden dragon and the system.

'Ding! I feel like this is some sort of a bidirectional way portal,' the system said before the golden dragon added.

'This place is situated in the middle of a portal linking this world with another.'

"A higher realm," Arthur gnashed his teeth, "a higher realm of that filthy bastard! That's expected, however let's see how long he can sustain this link."

As he got the answer he wanted, things started to become clearer now. He realized he was dealing with this battle in the wrong way. Victory here wouldn't be decided by crushing the enemy's energy, but through crushing this portal and shutting it down.

The moment this would happen, the hostile energy would stop flowing this way and he would be secured. Instead he was trying to resist the incoming energy, wasting his in return and gaining nothing in the end.

"Gege… be ready to take out black curtains," Arthur suddenly said.

'One?' Gege was surprised for a second there before asking.

"Bring tons of them," Arthur didn't want a half assed solution to this problem or else this wouldn't get him anywhere. Plus if he failed in dealing with the portal in one go, his enemy would read his plan and would prepare a countermeasure for it.

'But…' Gege was worried and she had all the right to feel so. Just one curtain was enough to create enough devastation that was hard to handle. And now Arthur wanted a ton of them? That seemed suicidal.

"Don't worry about me," Arthur said in confidence, "you'll take out a large number of purple ores and let them float around my body. Plus I already have the blessing and protection of a curtain."

'It's just one black curtain,' the golden dragon seemed worried, 'I doubt it can negate the coalition forces of many curtains together.'

Arthur knew this move held a lot of risk, many dangers to his life. However it was the only thing he could use now to crush such a high end portal.

He was quite positive this portal was created from the higher realm of the dark angel mage. So crushing it using his weaker and lower grade energy wouldn't work.

The only thing he had that could crush such higher energy was his own energy pillar. But up till now his pillar didn't get a chance to expand properly and was constantly attacked and eroded by his foe.

The dark angel mage seemed to be well prepared for this annoying ability of his. So Arthur had to come up with something else, something even his allies wouldn't expect and would be objecting to it like now.

"Just do it," as he noticed the hesitation of Gege and others, he shouted in urgency, "or else we are all going to die here."

'Ding! Using that ability will kill you as well,' the system didn't see a difference.

"I have a slim chance of surviving, unlike if I didn't do anything," Arthur believed in his ability to survive this. Indeed he would emerge with a lot of wounds, but in the end he would retain his life. "Just trust me and do it!"

'Why not take you in my garden world?' Gege tried to think of another way to survive this.

"Do you think you can open a portal here for so long?" Arthur was sure the moment a portal opened next to him to escape this trap would be crushed by his foe, "try it. I'm sure only far away portals will be left unscathed for a few moments."

Gege didn't believe him until she tried her portal out. All portals were crushed by the higher form of energy constantly pouring from the other end of this portal.

However those that she tried to summon next to Arthur were mercilessly crushed in a blink of an eye. Arthur wouldn't have time to step into any portal this way.

'How… How is that even possible?!!' Gege was shocked as this was the first time for her portals to fail.

"It's not your fault," Arthur said in rapid words, "my energy is weaker in grade than that enemy. He isn't subjected to the limitations of this lower world. It's like I moved to his higher realm and there… he can use his full strength unhindered."

'Then what?' Gege asked.

"Just do as I told you," Arthur was still persistent on his plan, "it's the only way to survive this."

'…'

"Just do it!" Arthur urged, "I can't hold much longer here. This way I'll die in the next couple minutes!"

He wasn't exaggerating! Just now the enemy smelled his intention to flee and poured more hostile energy towards Arthur. The latter was protected by a shaking pillar of light that kept dimming and shrinking at an alarming rate.. "Do it now or we'll all die!" Arthur shouted and Gege started to finally act.
