Chapter 1177: Following the Natural Order and Defying the Natural Order

The Ancient Dragon Empress was knocked flying again by Ao Xiaowu.

After falling asleep, Ao Xiaowu’s power had elevated significantly. Each of her attacks was imbued with the power of heaven and earth, and even the most mundane-looking punch was powerful to the extreme.

The Ancient Dragon Empress was no longer able to match Ao Xiaowu in a melee battle.

“You’ve already fallen asleep, so how can you accurately sense my location?” The Ancient Dragon Empress was perplexed.

Ao Xiaowu didn’t reply. Perhaps she heard that, perhaps she didn’t. She had her eyes closed, and her aura had completely been withdrawn, giving her the appearance of a harmless, sleeping beauty.

She took another step forward.

The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression shifted drastically as a yellow power of the divine dao enshrouded her entire body.

Pain of Shredding Flesh!

Sure enough, Ao Xiaowu appeared right before the Ancient Dragon Empress in the next instant and launched an almighty fist.

Her delicate fist passed through the yellow power of the divine dao and sustained over a thousand wounds in a split second.

This was the attack the Ancient Dragon Empress had unleashed to destroy one of An Lin’s arms.

Ao Xiaowu’s red sleeve was also shredded into nothingness, revealing a fair, jade-like arm. A series of wounds appeared upon on it, and her brows furrowed slightly, as if she had felt the pain.

However, what happened next made the Ancient Dragon Empress’ eyes widen in shock.

Her Pain of Shredding Flesh quickly became ineffective against Ao Xiaowu. This was clearly a realistic power, and those were clearly realistic wounds, but they suddenly took on an ethereal and dream-like quality, as if none of this were really happening.

“Transforming reality into illusion?” The Ancient Dragon Empress turned pale with fright.

Ao Xiaowu’s fist landed again.

The Ancient Dragon Empress crossed her arms before her as a shield, and her body was blasted flying for several kilometers again. The terrifying power behind the fist flowed along her arms into her body, and this time, even her internal organs had been shattered by that fist.

“Her strength has become even more fearsome. She was still able to speak before, so she was probably in a half-asleep state. But now, she appears to be completely asleep.” The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression became extremely grim.

“She can’t transform all reality into illusion! Where there is sufficient power, no one can change reality.

“I don’t have time to waste. I must end this as quickly as possible!”

The Ancient Dragon Empress unleashed a rainbow divine light this time, and each of the seven constituent divine lights represented a type of pain. When all seven divine lights came together, the power of an entire tribe erupted forth!

“Defiant Dragon!” The Ancient Dragon Empress took the initiative to pounce toward Ao Xiaowu like a powerful dragon threatening to break heaven and earth.

Ao Xiaowu was still sound asleep as she launched a fist in retaliation.

This time, Ao Xiaowu was blasted flying by the Ancient Dragon Empress’ Defiant Dragon attack and seemed to have been injured in the process.

The Ancient Dragon Empress continued to press home her advantage and launched a frenzied barrage of fists to try and finish Ao Xiaowu off.

Ao Xiaowu continued to defend herself. Even though she had been forced onto the back foot, she was still reacting extremely calmly, quickly, and accurately, as if she were a robot.

The Ancient Dragon Empress tried to imbue the power of her Pain of Slaughter into her fists. If an ordinary Return to Void Stage mighty figure were to cop a punch like this one, they would definitely explode into crimson fireworks.

However, after Ao Xiaowu was struck by those punches, her body was able to react extremely quickly. An enticing flush would appear on her beautiful cheeks, but that would be the extent of it.

She continued to launch her sleeping fists.

The Ancient Dragon Empress had no choice but to keep up her barrage of attacks.

In less than a minute, Ao Xiaowu had copped a dozen or so punches, and her entire face was bruised and battered.

However, she displayed no weakness, nor any signs of waking up.

As time passed by, she gradually fell into a deeper and deeper sleep, upon which her aura became more and more ethereal, and her fighting techniques became more and more advanced…

The Ancient Dragon Empress was becoming increasingly unsettled by this. She discovered that she didn’t seem to be able to punch Ao Xiaowu to death.

Right at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

“Ding dong, Xiaowu has entered deep sleep. Now entering one hundred percent standby mode.”

In that instant, Ao Xiaowu’s aura suddenly transformed.

An invisible ripple proliferated through the air.

The Ancient Dragon Empress couldn’t even detect Ao Xiaowu’s aura anymore. What took its place was a type of extremely mysterious, yet natural aura. It was very difficult to detect, as if it could merge with everything within this world…

Ao Xiaowu sprang into action again. She evaded the Ancient Dragon Empress’ fists through the use of extremely bizarre movement techniques while two of her fingers thrust toward the Ancient Dragon Empress’ heart like a sword.

The tips of her fingers possessed a mysterious sharpness that was able to pierce through the rainbow divine dao light.

Those fingers were imbued with the power of heaven and earth!

The Ancient Dragon Empress suddenly understood. If her dao was a dao to defy the natural order in order to lead her tribe away from their eternal oppression, then Ao Xiaowu’s dao was to follow the natural order and fuse herself with all things!

Ao Xiaowu only issued a fixation to heaven and earth before she fell asleep.

This fixation was a command, like killing the Ancient Dragon Empress for example. Heaven and earth would then gradually take control of her body in order to satisfy the instruction she had issued!

Now that Ao Xiaowu was in one hundred percent standby mode, Ao Xiaowu trying to kill her was the equivalent of the entire heaven and earth trying to kill her! The entire heaven and earth was helping Ao Xiaowu kill her!

“How could there be such a freakish divine dao?” The Ancient Dragon Empress’ heart was punctured by Ao Xiaowu’s fingers, and the space behind her was also punctured, creating a massive rift that extended to infinity and beyond.

Blood gushed forth, and she hurtled back in retreat, but her eyes were extremely bright.

The Ancient Dragon Empress was not fearful in the slightest. Instead, her face lit up with scorching excitement. “I have always defied the natural order, yet you are following the natural order. I will vanquish you to prove the superiority of my dao!”

Her heart quickly healed under the power of a green divine dao light.

The Ancient Dragon Empress charged toward Ao Xiaowu, and she seemed to have attained some sort of enlightenment as her aura climbed to unprecedented heights, allowing her to fight on par with Ao Xiaowu in standby mode.

The battle between the two women was more terrifying than any other battles taking place here.

This was not just a battle that rocked heaven and earth.

One of them followed the natural order, while the other defied the natural order.

Their battle made the Great Dao of heaven and earth tremor and quake, and the devastating resulting shockwaves threatened to completely break open this entire world.

“What a terrifying power! An enraged tigress is indeed one of the most terrifying things in this world.” An Lin stared at the battle in the distance with an astonished expression on his face.

“Those are not tigresses, those are female dragons! They’re even more terrifying when enraged!” Xu Xiaolan corrected as she continued to rain sword strikes down upon Mei Gui Evil Dragon.

“Are you going to become like this in the future as well?” An Lin was slightly alarmed as he asked in an extremely concerned voice.

“That would be up to you.” A dangerous smile appeared on her face as she spoke in a profound voice, “If somebody does something unfaithful, then don’t blame me for transforming into a female dragon…”

Cold sweat poured from An Lin’s forehead upon hearing this.

Now that their side held the crushing advantage, their moods had all lifted significantly, so they could even chat as they fought.

However, the three evil dragons suddenly received some information.

“Wu Si Evil Dragon and Du Ba Evil Dragon can’t hold on for any longer!”

“Huan Meng Evil Dragon, you’re the fastest among us! Lun Yu Evil Dragon and I will hold them off, you go provide reinforcements!” Mei Gui Evil Dragon roared.

An Lin chuckled coldly. “You think you two can hold us off?”

However, An Lin suddenly discovered that they really were capable of holding An Lin and the others off.

At the same time as the three evil dragons were sacrificing their life forces, they also chose to sacrifice their bloodlines!
