Chapter 27 Fusion
Although the Lord of Terror was severely injured, his divine form disintegrated, and the energy of his Chaos Axe dimmed, he still displayed astonishing combat power. With his broken body, he fought alone against Ling Hao, Tiamat, and three legendary dragon progenitors, and surprisingly, he did not fall behind for a long time.
The battle was exceptionally fierce. The Lord of Terror wielded the Chaos Axe, and each strike forced the five Dragon Gods to react with extreme caution.
Despite the combined efforts of Ling Hao's Platinum Divine Power and Tiamat's Evil Breath, along with the Time Dragon's manipulation of space and time, the Power Dragon's pure power impact, and the Rainbow Dragon's multicolored shield, they still could not completely suppress the Lord of Terror.
Seeing the situation was dire, the Aragami Utau, under the command of the Lord of Terror, began to consolidate his forces, leading his army of Aragami to retreat towards the edge of the astral plane. But by then, the battlefield situation had already changed.
As the battle shifted from the material universe to the astral plane, Mother Earth, Sentia, no longer needed to be distracted by stabilizing the continent, and her power fully recovered to its peak.
The Shadow Serpent Dandel's arrogant demeanor vanished instantly, completely suppressed by the Earth Mother, unable to escape.
The goddess of magic, Mysriel, had already been secretly plotting her attack. While fighting, she used the astral energy to construct a massive world array, silently enveloping the entire battlefield.
By the time the Aragami realized it, they were already surrounded.
The allied forces of the gods pressed in from all directions, and the army of the Wild Gods suffered repeated defeats, their retreat route completely cut off.
The magic goddess's array was like a giant cage, trapping the wild gods within.
Seeing this, the Lord of Terror knew the situation was critical. He roared a command in the consciousness of all the Wild Gods: "Go all in! Go all out! Otherwise, no one will survive!"
This command unleashed the final frenzy from the Aragami. Cornered and desperate, they launched a valiant counterattack, their fighting power surging dramatically.
Although the allied forces of the gods held the advantage, their advance was significantly slowed down in the face of these reckless wild gods.
Ling Hao and Tiamat were also under increasing pressure. The Lord of Terror fought with increasing ferocity in the face of adversity; although the Chaos Axe was running low on energy, every attack was precise and deadly.
Even with the combined efforts of the five dragon gods, they could only barely hold them off.
"This guy is really tenacious..." Ling Hao thought to himself, secretly alarmed.
He checked the Lord of Terror's status through the system interface and found that although the opponent was seriously injured, his combat awareness and experience far surpassed those of them, the newly born dragon gods.
Tiamat's five heads roared simultaneously: "The Father God's nemesis is indeed not simple!"
At this critical moment, Ling Hao suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He remembered that when he was a player, he often studied various skill combinations. Now that he had a system interface, why not try to analyze the possibility of fusing with Tiamat?
Distracted, he brought up the system interface and quickly searched: "Analyze the feasibility of fusing Bahamut's and Tiamat's divine powers."
[Analysis in progress... Based on their shared origin and complementary nature, the feasibility of fusion is 98.7%.]
The probability of briefly recreating the power of the Nine-Headed Dragon God is 83.2%. Warning: The fusion process is extremely unstable and may cause irreversible damage.
Ling Hao was shocked. This plan was feasible!
He immediately shouted to the Time Dragon, Power Dragon, and Rainbow Dragon progenitors, "Buy us some time! We need to try to fuse!"
Although the three legendary dragon progenitors were puzzled, they still followed the advice and intensified their attack, temporarily holding off the Lord of Terror.
Ling Hao turned to Tiamat and quickly explained, "Tiamat! We share the same origin. If we can merge good and evil, we might be able to briefly recreate the power of the Father God!"
Tiamat's five heads simultaneously showed expressions of shock. The red head reacted first: "Are you insane? How can good and evil coexist?"
But Blue Dragon calmly analyzed: "Theoretically feasible...we all come from the same source."
The green-headed man hesitated, "The risk is too great..."
Both the white-headed and black-headed dragons directly objected: "Impossible!"
Ling Hao said urgently, "There's no time to argue! This is our only chance!"
Tiamat knew in her heart that his idea was indeed very brilliant, and she was jealous of the platinum dragon god in front of her.
Finally, Red Dragon glared at Bahamut and conceded, "Fine. But if I fail, I'll be the first to tear you apart!"
Ling Hao immediately began guiding the fusion process through the system interface. The system provided precise energy flow guidance, helping the two dragon gods adjust their divine power frequencies.
The process was extremely difficult. The natures of good and evil repelled each other, and Ling Hao's platinum divine power clashed violently with Tiamat's divine power. Both dragon gods felt excruciating pain.
"Stay calm!" Ling Hao gritted his teeth and persevered.
Tiamat's five heads roared in pain simultaneously, but she still managed to adjust her own energy accordingly.
They share the same origin, so it's easy for them to find a balance.
Gradually, the repulsive force begins to weaken, and the two opposing energies find a wonderful balance.
Golden and dark energies began to intertwine and rotate, forming a huge energy vortex.
The Lord of Terror sensed something amiss and tried to stop it, but was desperately blocked by the three legendary dragon progenitors.
The energy vortex grew larger and larger, and Ling Hao and Tiamat's figures gradually blurred and merged into the center of the vortex.
Nine-colored light began to appear in the vortex.
Nine-colored rays of light intertwined and gradually condensed into a huge dragon-shaped phantom—the very form of the nine-faced dragon god Aio!
Although the phantom was blurry and unstable, the oppressive aura it exuded silenced the entire battlefield.
For the first time, the Lord of Terror showed a solemn expression, and the three legendary dragon progenitors retreated in awe.
"It...it's a success?" Ling Hao's consciousness dominated the phantom, but he could sense Tiamat's consciousness within it as well.
"Barely holding on…" Tiamat's consciousness responded, "It feels like it could collapse at any moment."
The nine-faced dragon god phantom raised its forepaws, and nine-colored light converged. Although it had no physical form, the power it contained far exceeded that of Ling Hao or Tiamat when they fought alone.
The Lord of Terror retreated warily, holding the Chaos Axe horizontally in front of him: "Playing tricks! I've cleaved through the real body, what are you afraid of a mere illusion?!"
The Chaos Axe struck with all its might, but its power was far less than that of the peak state of the Heaven-Opening Realm. This time, the Nine-Faced Dragon God phantom simply waved its hand, and the nine-colored light easily neutralized the axe strike.
The Lord of Terror was sent flying backward by the attack.
"Now!" Ling Hao and Tiamat's consciousnesses shouted simultaneously.
The phantom of the nine-faced dragon god opened its massive maw, and nine primal forces converged into a dazzling beam of light, shooting directly at the Lord of Terror.
This attack embodies the unity of opposites between order and chaos, good and evil, perfectly replicating Aio's attack.
The Lord of Terror defended with all his might, the Chaos Axe unleashing its final burst of light. The two forces collided once more, but this time the Lord of Terror was clearly outmatched, blasted away by the beam of light, his divine form further disintegrating.
However, at this crucial moment, the fusion began to falter. The conflict between the essence of good and evil intensified, and the phantom of the Nine-Faced Dragon God fluctuated violently.
"Hold on!" Ling Hao desperately tried to maintain the fusion.
But Tiamat's evil nature began to backfire: "This won't do! It's going to collapse!"
The nine-faced dragon god phantom could not be maintained in the end and disintegrated with a crash. Ling Hao and Tiamat were forcibly separated.
However, their attack completely dimmed the Chaos Axe, the Lord of Terror, and its divine form almost completely disintegrated
