Acnologia watched as twelve black giant dragons emerged from Solence, the Undead Dragon King's body, his gaze sharpening: "Undead Dragons!"
Solence threw his head back and laughed wildly: "This is my surprise for you! The power of Undead Dragons is not much weaker than when they were alive. Come and try it!"
At his command, the twelve Undead Dragons let out frenzied Roars and swarmed forward, attacking from all directions.
Acnologia sneered coldly: "I wasn't afraid of them when they were alive, let alone now that they're dead!"
His wings beat, and his figure transformed into a streak of lightning as he shot forward. One claw pressed down on the head of an Undead Water Dragon, the terrifying force instantly crushing it, splattering brain matter.
However, in the next moment, the brain matter and flesh of the Undead Water Dragon all turned to mist, returning to its body and completely healing in an instant.
Acnologia whipped his tail, snapping the arm of an Undead Fire Dragon, and tore open the chest of another Undead Dragon with a claw, but both quickly regenerated.
His gaze sharpened: "Immortal bodies!"
Solence laughed arrogantly: "They are already dead! No one can kill them a second time!"
This was his confidence, an army of Undead Dragons that feared neither life nor death.
"Can't kill them?"
Acnologia looked at the Undead Dragons closing in around him and said coldly, "In the end, you're just a pile of souls and magic power. To me, you're just a meal!"
King of Red Dragons, Osta, realized something and rushed in front of Solence, urgently roaring, "Run!"
Solence didn't understand: "Run from what? Acnologia is already surrounded by my Undead Dragons!"
Before his words faded, Acnologia on the other side had already opened his ferocious maw, like an abyssal black hole, unleashing a terrifying devouring force.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The magic power and dust in the air all transformed into tornadoes, rushing towards his mouth.
The twelve Undead Dragons immediately struggled to maintain their positions, being relentlessly pulled in by the terrifying devouring force. Even flapping their wings with all their might, they couldn't escape.
Not only that, but the bodies of the Undead Dragons had already begun to disintegrate, turning into particles of soul and magic power, being devoured by that abyssal maw.
Solence finally understood the horror of Devouring Magic. Without further hesitation, he closely followed King of Red Dragons, Osta, fleeing into the distance.
"Ultimate Augmentation Magic, Gravity!!!"
Acnologia roared angrily. A terrifying Gravity descended from the sky, instantly pressing down on the two Dragon Kings, pinning them firmly to the ground, making movement difficult.
Although the bodies of dragons could weaken magic to the extreme, his magic power carried Dragon Slayer attributes. Even Dragon Kings couldn't weaken its power by much.
"Now just wait to die!"
A murderous intent flashed in Acnologia's eyes. Magic power gathered in his mouth, a terrifying blue light illuminating the entire dark sky.
This was a Roar augmented with Devouring Magic. Once unleashed, it would immediately devour all surrounding matter. Even King of Red Dragons Osta's mist form wouldn't be able to escape.
Osta, struggling desperately on the ground, felt the terrifying storm gathering behind him and immediately roared at Solence, "Quick, have your Undead Dragons block it!"
"Understood!"
Not daring to be careless, Solence gave the order. All the Undead Dragons charged forward fearlessly, desperately clinging to Acnologia's head, intending to use their bodies to block the Roar.
"Black Dragons Roar!"
Acnologia didn't hesitate for a moment. The Roar in his mouth instantly erupted, blasting apart the three Undead Dragons in front of him and piercing through the sky.
Watching the Roar getting closer and closer to Osta and Solence, just as he thought he would surely kill the two dragons, an unexpected event still occurred.
A pair of pitch-black dragon claws reached out from the ground, dragging the two dragons into the shadows, where they disappeared.
Boom! Rumble!
The Dragon King's Roar exploded, instantly destroying a vast expanse of land. Immediately after, the explosive light abruptly contracted, transforming into a black hole that devoured everything around it, endlessly and without cease.
"Undead Shadow Dragon!"
"So the Eclipse Gate is hidden in the Shadow Space!"
Acnologia looked at the Roar devouring everything in the distance and actively stopped it. Letting it continue would cause too much destruction.
"As for you..."
He looked at the Undead Dragons trying to flee before him, bit down on the neck of an Undead Fire Dragon, and unleashed Devouring Magic. In three seconds, it was completely devoured.
The other Undead Dragons transformed into black smoke, surging towards the distance, trying to return to Solence's side.
Acnologia wouldn't give them the chance. He continued devouring. Large swathes of black smoke turned into tornadoes and vanished into his mouth. For now, he would devour as much as he could.
Although for a moment he considered following the black smoke to find the two dragons, who knew if they might use that to lure him elsewhere.
If they lured him away and then entered the Underground Ruins, Irene might even be in danger... Ten minutes later, all the black smoke and sandstorms in the sky dissipated, restoring clear weather.
Acnologia transformed into his human form and walked towards the underground, soon arriving at the dilapidated Church.
At this moment, Natsu, Happy, Lucy, and the Oración Seis were locked in a fierce battle, though the situation was completely one-sided.
Natsu was already covered in wounds. Earlier, he had been the first to clash with the Oración Seis. He could handle one, but against two, he was completely outmatched.
Then Happy and Lucy came to help, barely managing to hold on.
Seeing Acnologia return, everyone was shocked. Was the battle over there already?!
The Oración Seis felt tense. Had their own powerful bald guild master been defeated?
This wasn't good!
Lucy's face lit up with joy: "Did you win?"
Acnologia nodded: "Naturally. Do you need help?"
Natsu hurriedly said, "No need! I feel like I can still fight!"
As he spoke, flames erupted all over his body, and he transformed into a giant fireball charging forward.
Irene sat leisurely on a rock. From beginning to end, she had never worried that Acnologia would lose.
She asked quietly, "You transformed into a dragon earlier. Were the opponents that strong?"
Earlier, she had sensed Acnologia's Dragonification, which was why she hadn't ended the fight here. Otherwise, if Natsu and the others saw, it would probably require a lot of explaining.
Acnologia nodded slightly: "It was King of Red Dragons, Osta. The other was the Undead Dragon King, who could also summon twelve Undead Dragons. No, it should be thirteen."
There was also an Undead Shadow Dragon, which had been hiding in the Shadow Space all along.
Irene was somewhat surprised: "Two Dragon Kings plus thirteen Undead Dragons. That's a powerful force."
In this world, apart from Acnologia, there was probably no one else who could stand against them.
Acnologia scratched his head, feeling somewhat troubled as he said, "Their survival abilities are really annoying. This is already the second time they've escaped from me. It seems I need to learn some magic to seal off an area."
Irene shook her head slightly: "I'm afraid there's no area-sealing magic that would be effective against a Dragon King."
So-called area-sealing magic, like Fried's runes, even if Acnologia himself cast it, would definitely be smashed through by a Dragon King's body. It wouldn't be meaningful.
Acnologia pinched his chin in thought: "Let me think carefully."
