Zong gritted his teeth, refusing to waste any more words. The spear in his hand shone brightly. "Since the clone is useless, then I refuse to believe that your divine dragon can withstand my attack! Secret Technique: Golden Spear - Ten Thousand Jun!"
The golden light at the tip of the spear grew brighter and brighter, even overshadowing the sun in the sky, and the surrounding space was slightly dented by this force. He suddenly hurled the spear, which transformed into a golden meteor, accompanied by a Sky Splitter, heading straight for Tian Flying Swallow's face.
"Well done!" A glint flashed in Tian Flying Swallow's eyes as she raised the Nine Dragons Jade Seal high above her head. "Nine Dragons - Protection!"
The nine divine dragons instantly converged, head to tail, transforming into a golden dragon-shaped protective shield. "Clang--!" The golden spear pierced the shield, producing a deafening metallic clang. The shield trembled violently, and the dragon scales on it shone brightly, barely managing to block the attack.
Seeing this, Zong Hand Seals and shouted, "Explode!"
The spears exploded against the protective shield with a deafening roar, and the massive shockwave sent the nine dragons flying backward. Each dragon was wounded to varying degrees; some had their scales fall off, some had their wings torn, and one dragon even had half of its Kakuzu broken off.
"Pfft!" A trickle of blood spilled from Tian Flying Swallow's mouth, clearly indicating she had also been affected. But she didn't care, wiping the blood from her lips and laughing, "Not bad, you actually managed to hurt my divine dragon. But, you think this is the end of it?"
He pushed the Nine Dragons Jade Seal in front of him, and the seal shone brightly. The injured dragons instantly shone with golden light, their broken wings grew back, their fallen scales were covered again, and even their broken Kakuzu were restored to their original state. The nine dragons circled again, their eyes shining even more fiercely than before.
Zong's pupils constricted sharply. He could sense that Tian Flying Swallow's Power of National Fortune had not only not decreased, but had become even stronger due to the attack just now. "What's going on? Why is your Power of National Fortune increasing the more you use it?"
"The more you use it, the more it grows?" Tian Flying Swallow chuckled. "You don't understand. The Power of National Fortune isn't static; it increases with the people's faith. Just now, when you attacked my divine dragon, the people felt the crisis, and their prayers became even more devout, naturally making my Power of National Fortune even stronger."
Zong's face grew increasingly grim. He knew that if this continued, he would eventually be worn down. He took a deep breath, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. "Since that's the case, then I'll destroy this so-called National Fortune! Secret Technique: Spatial Shattering!"
He Hand Seals, and the space around him began to distort and shatter, forming black spatial rifts. These rifts were like gaping maws, spreading towards Tian Flying Swallow and the nine divine dragons. Once swallowed by the spatial rifts, even the divine dragons would likely be torn to pieces.
"You think you can ruin my nation's National Fortune? You're not capable of that!" Tian Flying Swallow sneered, pressing the Nine Dragons Jade Seal to the ground. " Nine Dragons Domain - Open!"
With his shout, a golden domain instantly unfolded centered on the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, enveloping an area of over a hundred miles. Within the domain, the figures of the nine divine dragons became clearer, their bodies surrounded by a faint golden light. The spatial rifts around them began to slowly heal the moment they came into contact with the golden light.
"This is... a domain?" Zong's eyes were filled with shock. He hadn't expected that Tian Flying Swallow would actually possess the power of a domain.
Tian Flying Swallow did not answer, but instead formed hand Hand Seals and shouted, " Nine Dragons Domain - Imprisonment!"
Nine divine dragons swiftly traversed the domain, leaving golden trails in the void. These trails intertwined, forming a massive golden cage that trapped Zong within.
"Damn it! Let me go!" Zong attacked the cage frantically, his golden spear stabbing at it again and again, but only leaving shallow marks, unable to break through.
"Let you go?" Tian Flying Swallow chuckled. "Now you're scared? When you killed my Divine Dragon, didn't you ever think this day would come?"
He paused, then continued, "Next, I'll let you experience the power of my Nine Dragons Domain. Nine Dragons Domain - Attack!"
As his words fell, the golden trail on the cage began to glow, and countless golden dragon-shaped light blades shot out from the trail, raining down on Zong like a storm. Zong hurriedly swung his golden spear to defend himself, the clanging sounds echoing incessantly, and several wounds quickly appeared on his body.
"Secret Technique: Regeneration!" Zong hurriedly Hand Seals, and his wounds instantly healed. But before he could catch his breath, more dragon-shaped light blades shot towards him, and he could only swing his spear again to defend himself.
Thus, Zong was constantly attacked by the light blades within the golden cage. Although his regenerative abilities were strong, each regeneration required a large amount of Chakra. Moreover, the attacks from the light blades became increasingly dense, leaving him no chance to catch his breath, Chakra was being consumed faster and faster.
"No, this can't go on!" Zong was extremely anxious. He knew that if things continued like this, he would eventually be worn down and die. He suddenly looked up at Tian Flying Swallow, a ruthless glint in his eyes. "Woman, if you have the guts, let me out. We'll fight one-on-one!"
"A one-on-one duel?" Tian Flying Swallow scoffed. "Do you think I'd be stupid enough to let you out? Right now, you're nothing but a turtle in a jar."
He paused, then continued, "Besides, there's no need to follow any rules when dealing with an extraterrestrial demon like you. As long as we can kill you, no amount of scheming is too much."
Zong's face was filled with utter despair. He could feel that his Chakra was almost depleted, and his regenerative abilities were becoming weaker and weaker. Meanwhile, Tian Flying Swallow's Power of National Fortune continued to flow, and the attacks from the Nine Dragons Domain were growing stronger and stronger.
"I am not reconciled! I, Ōtsutsuki Sō, have actually been defeated by you!" Sō let out a furious roar of resentment. He suddenly burned his own primordial Chakra, and a powerful force erupted from his body. The light on the golden spear surged once again.
"Secret Technique: Ōtsutsuki - Ultimate Judgment!"
He poured all his primordial Chakra into the spear, which transformed into a giant pillar of light that slammed into the golden cage. This strike contained power far greater than any of his previous attacks; the golden cage trembled violently, and cracks spread across its surface.
"Not good!" Tian Flying Swallow's expression changed. He hadn't expected Zong to burn his own Chakra to unleash such a powerful attack. He hurriedly Hand Seals and shouted, " Nine Dragons Domain - Enhancement!"
The nine divine dragons roared simultaneously, their power flowing continuously into the golden cage. The golden light on the cage grew stronger and stronger, barely managing to block the attack of the beam of light.
"Boom--!"
The beam of light collided with the cage, producing a deafening roar. The surrounding space shook violently from the force, and even the seawater below was whipped up into towering waves, forming a massive tsunami.
Zong's body began to turn transparent as his primordial Chakra burned, and a maniacal smile appeared on his face, "Woman, even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"
A look of seriousness flashed in Tian Flying Swallow's eyes; he knew he couldn't wait any longer. He took a deep breath, raised the Nine Dragons Jade Seal high above his head, and shouted, " Nine Dragons Seal - Suppress!"
The nine divine dragons instantly turned into streaks of golden light and poured into the Nine Dragons Jade Seal. The light on the jade seal shone brightly, and a huge golden "zhen" word emerged, heading towards Zongzhen.
"No--!" Zong let out a desperate roar. He tried to resist, but found that his body had been exhausted by the burning of the source energy and he was unable to move at all.
The golden word "Zhen" fell on Zong, and his body was instantly wrapped in golden light, unable to move. He could feel that his chakra was rapidly losing, and his body was slowly becoming stiff.
"Women, I, the Otsutsuki clan, will not let you go!" Zong's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared completely. His body turned into a wisp of green smoke, which was sucked into it by the golden word "Zhen", and then merged into the Nine Dragons Jade Seal.
Tian Flying Swallow slowly put down the Nine Dragons Jade Seal and let out a long sigh of relief.
