LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 237 Chapter 237: First Confrontation

When Derik joined hands with Cyrus and Kaido to destroy the spear, the people rejoiced, since this meant they have escaped the threat of annihilation, but when they heard Derik's furious battle cry and saw the Life guardian spirit host and the sun cosmic spirit host charging alongside him towards the direction of the attack, they couldn't help but cry out in fear!

Couldn't these three gold realm masters just act as nothing happened and let this foe pa.s.s without further conflict?

Unfortunately for them, the pride of these three peerless masters of their generation was on the line, if they let this man go without throwing a punch or two, wouldn't they become the laughing stock of the continent? The image and reputation they have spent their whole life to acquire will be crumbled in an instant!

They are the invincible masters of this mighty continent and it has to remain that way! There is no way they can let this matter die so easily, they will rather die fighting than let these people walk away so easily!

.............................................…

ROAR!!!

Derik's resounding roar shook the empire as a ma.s.sive black whirlpool formed around him as he kept flying forward! With the limiter path in use, coupled with the negative emotions he drew from the citizens of the empire, his power level temporarily rose to the mid-grade of the gold realm!

Just like Derik, Cyrus drew a tiny portion of the life force of almost everyone in the empire, coupled with his removed limiters, his power level jumped all the way to the mid-grade of the gold realm!

Kaido refused to be left behind as well, relying on his perfected 'The one path', Kaido who was already at the mid-grade of the gold realm could not jump to the next grade of the realm but he could only push his power level to a more profound level in the grade, entering the peak tier of the mid-grade, only a step away from peak grade of the gold realm.

The aura of these three underwent qualitative changes as they vanished in the distance, leaving behind an empire filled with shocked and terrified people starring at the location where they disappeared to! Roars and furious bellows span across the empire as the silver realm elites of both palaces shot into the sky, chasing after their palace masters with murderous intentions! 

Back then, they could only watch their palace masters struggle, this time they were determined to fight the enemy, even if it means detonating their cores just to harm them!

............................................

BANG!

BANG!!

BANG!!!

Derik, Cyrus, and Kaido appeared above the orc army a few minutes later with a banging sound resonating from their bodies, their eyes narrowed and their eyebrows were knitted together as they dived down, straight towards the horde, gathering their energy for a devastating attack!

ROAR!!!

With a roar, Derik spat out a small sea of darkish purple flames that quickly consumed hundreds of orcs in an instant, but to his greatest surprise, hundreds of orcs shot out of the purple flames, shooting towards him! Their eyes showed no pain or fear, only blood l.u.s.t which was enough to make Derik feel uncomfortable!

These beasts were practically been burnt alive but they still shot towards him fearlessly. Since they couldn't fly, Derik increased the distance between them while creating numerous bone spears to shoot down all those who came to close. Right behind him was a wave of over a hundred orcs planning to pull him down from behind while he was busy with the ones attacking head-on.

"No, you don't!" Cyrus cried out furiously as his ma.s.sive golden divine weapon appeared behind Derik and with a single swipe, all the orcs were knocked back down to the ground.

"SPLIT!!"

He raised his right hand up and violently swung it down with a roar. In response, his guardian weapon which was the size of a small mountain flew down like a meteor! Cras.h.i.+ng into the orc horde ruthlessly. Kaido on his own part brandished his magic broadsword recklessly, releasing numerous arcs of orange aura at the green beasts below, with the ability to draw power from the sun, his power was almost limitless during the day time!.

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

It has only been a minute since the battle began, yet explosions and furious cries rocked the continent hard and the inhabitants of the empire were stunned by this, curious to know what kind of being would force the death mage, life mage and the sun guardian knight to fight so viciously. Their auras dyed the sky above the continent black, gold, orange, and green at the same time, spreading fear into the hearts of all those who saw this. Even the silver realm experts of the two palaces who were rus.h.i.+ng forward to battle but were left behind by Derik and the other two had to stop on their tracks and retreat fearfully. The aura these people released was violent, each possessing its own lethal quality that can kill silver realm elites almost instantly. It was obvious that these three masters were not planning to restrain their aura in this battle, they were going all out for the very first time in a long while!

................................................…..

"Retreat! This is not a place we can go to!" Kira said to the forces of the death palace with a bitter smile on his face. From a distance, he could see the countless green humanoid beasts below each possessing terrifying aura that could rival peak bronze realm experts. Their number was so large, it was like counting grains of sands on the beach! It looked like an endless army.

No matter how Kira, Kin, or Agus looked at it, they were sure they won't last a minute against this army. This explained why the palace masters did not restrain their auras in this battle. Since the number of these beasts are great, they can only let their violent aura kill as much as possible while they fought fiercely, but even that wasn't good enough! Merely gazing at the number of these beasts present Kira was a hundred percent sure that Derik and Cyrus will most likely run out of mana soon, leaving only Kaido to battle them until night time when the one path is rendered useless and unusable.

Even Derik, Kaido, and Cyrus were stunned by what they saw, who would have thought that Kuen and a group of recruits will encounter such a thing outside the walls of the empire! The least they can do now is defeat as many of these green beasts as they can while they wait for the powerful figure hiding within the crowed, responsible for that green spear attack to show his or herself!

The shocking strength of these green beasts terrified Derik and the other masters greatly, a single orc was equivalent to a peak grade bronze realm warrior! With or without the existence of top tier masters in this foreign force, the empire will still be wiped out by this force, any day, any time! The least they can do at this point is kill as much as they can before the real war begins.

What terrified Derik and the rest was the similarities between these beasts and the undead. On numerous occasions, they have dealt fatal wounds to these green beasts which are meant to kill any normal person but to their greatest surprise, these monsters would rise on their feet and continue fighting. In just a minute, contrary to their expectations, they have only managed to kill slightly over a thousand of these strange beasts. Even under the influence of Derik's corrosive death aura, these beasts kept fighting till nothing remains! If they had super-regenerative qualities, the case would have been worse.

"This world truly does possess interesting warriors…" A deep ancient-sounding voice resonated from the army and a three-meter tall green monster adorned in a black armor rose into the air with his face hidden within the skull-shaped helmet.

At this very moment, Derik, Cyrus, and Kaido stopped attacking and turned their attention to the three-meter tall orc and the four other orcs standing behind him respectfully. With a glance, they could tell who the leader of the group was, the person responsible for the green spear attack. The three-meter tall orc in terms of power was placed at the peak grade of the gold realm while those behind him were at the peak grade of the silver realm in terms of power.

"You can speak our language?" Cyrus asked with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Does it matter? All I can see right now is a dead man!" Derik growled furiously!
