Chapter 1268 — Chapter 1268 Unleashed Rage IV

On a densely populated planet, a tall, muscular human wearing an orange hoodie walked around one of the largest cities. With a certain range of him, random people seemed to suddenly die, though the range was so vast that no one connected him to it. Later on, autopsies of the bodies would reveal that the victims exploded from intense vibrations, yet no one other than the victims ever felt like anything was ever amiss.

Z was content sharing his music only with his targets. It was not so bad to hear a pleasant melody before dying.

Certain planets suffered beast tides, where every single beast on the planet suddenly revolted and attacked the Sanguis Pluvia bases, even though there was no history of such a thing on those planets. On one such planet, a golden sloth closed its eyes to take a nap, while on another, a deer with large antlers looked out into the distance.

There was one planet that was suddenly engulfed by plantlife. Trillions of clovers suddenly grew out of the ground, attacking everything in sight, using all other living beings there as fertilizer.

There was another planet where it suddenly started to rain fire, that tore through everything that blocked its path, and burned the very souls of the victims it touched. Luthor stood atop a mountain, looking at the world with his hands folded behind his back.

Elves, dwarves, sentient beetles, humans, devils, and more, all races suddenly appeared out of nowhere with the intention to kill. The tide of Lex's wrath covered the entire realm, making sure that none of the Sanguis Pluvia could escape. Or at least, ensuring that the low level members of the organization could not escape.

All the stronger ones - the important ones - had already been summoned by Sekhmet from across the galaxy to fight alongside her. Or at least to buy her some time for whatever she had planned.

She was a Demi-Dao Lord, which meant she was still nothing but an insignificant ant in front of a real Dao Lord. But the problem lay in the fact that Dao Lords could not use their abilities within the realm. Not everyone was as skilled as the Innkeeper, who could strike within the Origin realm without damaging the growth of the realm itself.

They would only strike if the situation became too desperate. Until then, it was up to the Celestial Immortals to neutralize her through other means. Yet even that was easier said than done, for Sekhmet had summoned all her subordinates, and they were more than just a few of them.

Comparatively, the Henali could not blindly send all their forces, for that meant leaving portions of the realm unprotected. Even with all their preparation, the Henali fell shorthanded.

Fortunately, Lex had left no stone unturned in ensuring that there were sufficient forces to help fight the final fight.

Elsewhere, far away from the star system where the fight with Sekhmet was taking place, there was a golden dragon peering through space, looking at it. Around it was a gathering of countless dragons, completely unprecedented in the known history of the Origin realm, for the dragons never really gathered together.

"A few years ago, I declared that the dragons were at war," the dragon's voice rumbled. It was funny, since in size the golden dragon was much smaller than the other dragons gathered, but not a single one of them dared look down on him. Instead, they all looked down at their feet in complete and total deference.

"But I did not reveal who we were at war with. That was because our enemy was not simple. Today, I will let you know who the enemy is. A short while ago, all of you witnessed through the eyes of the dragonling a human who declared himself superior to dragons in every way. Now, through my eyes, let me show one with the heart of a dragon, and the will to challenge the Dao itself!"

The dragons looked up, and as if they themselves were there, saw the first moment where Lex's dragon heart took its first beat. They saw him raise his sword at a being of Dao, and saw him declare a sacred challenge!

As if a lit match had been through into an ocean of crude oil, there was an explosion of fire. Except, the explosion was within the hearts and minds of the dragons. They felt as if they were not looking at a human, but one of their own.

Naturally, since one of their own showed frenzied courage beyond rhyme or reason, they felt inspired!

Yes! This is how it should be! When a dragon is crossed, even beings of Dao should fear and tremble. Instead of seeing Lex's actions for the insanity that they were, the dragons took it as the highest, purest, most devout display of the dragonkinds creed!

In this universe, nay, in all of existence itself, only the dragons were supreme!

"Let the world, let the realm, let the universe itself feel the wrath of dragons!" the dragon king declared, and opened a massive portal, leading to the battlefield.

An endless thunder of dragons unleashed their Dragons Roar, and took flight, blotting out the skies as they traveled through the portal and joined the fray.

The dragon kind, however, did not move just yet. He watched his kind take flight, as if a general watching over his armies.

Yet his gaze, which was previously locked onto Lex, moved to the side just a little. In a corner of the battlefield, Charles Best was undergoing his thunder tribulation, protected from the chaos of battle by the Henali. Naturally, since they were working with Lex, they had to protect his allies as well.

"Little Charles, it looks like you did not die back then," the golden dragon murmured. "To think of all the powerful beings from back then, it is you, a small little elf, who survived."

The dragon's eyes seemed to lose focus, as if he was suddenly transported into a distant past.
