Chapter 85 - Ao Yuanxiao

n

n

n

nTh Apotropaic Divine Lightning went smashing down on the Heavenly Yin Sect Master’s body.

n

n“No…” The Sect Master of the Heavenly Yin Sect screamed in despair.

n

nThe power of the lightning obliterated him.

n

n“Didn’t you hear what I said?” The young man’s face turned dark and became very ominous.

n

n“So what if I did?” Xiao Ran replied in a goading manner.

n

n“It seems that after a long time of no births, the world has already forgotten about our North Sea Dragon Tribe.”

n

nXiao Ran raised his eyebrows and his eyes lit up. “You’re from the North Sea Dragon Tribe?”

n

n“North Sea Dragon Tribe’s Ao Yuanxiao.”

n

n“Do you know Yang Anping?” Xiao Ran asked.

n

nYang Anping was the name of the Deluge Dragon, following his mother’s surname.

n

n“Are you that beast’s friend?” Ao Yuanxiao’s eyes were filled with murderous intent as he stared menacingly at Xiao Ran.

n

n“Who extracted the dragon tendon from his body?”

n

n“Tsk tsk…” Ao Yuanxiao licked his lips with a sinister smile.

n

nWith an evil look, he appeared to be insane.

n

n“It was I who did it.”

n

n“You?” Xiao Ran asked in surprise.

n

n“Yes.” Ao Yuanxiao acknowledged boldly.

n

n“When I was born, I was injured by the Lunar Vital Energy and my main dragon tendon was damaged. If I did not swap it out with a new one, I wouldn’t be able to survive my adulthood peacefully, much less practice and develop my skills.”

n

nHis demeanor became more deranged as if he suddenly recalled something delectable.

n

n“And the main dragon tendon of that beast had a 90% compatibility level with mine. It was a heaven-sent opportunity. If I let such a golden opportunity slip through my fingers, wouldn’t I receive divine punishment? Fortunately, that old fart died. Now that this final obstacle was cleared, my remaining reservation was removed. It was simply that scum’s tough luck.”

n

nAs he spoke,

n

nAo Yuanxiao’s aura proliferated and his dragon might shot outwards. The massive aura inundated the whole area.

n

nA low baleful wail exploded through the air, as if the space was unable to withstand this mighty pressure.

n

nFrom all directions, that pressure went crushing towards Xiao Ran.

n

n“Tell me where he is now?”

n

n“Don’t worry! I will take you there. As a corpse.” Xiao Ran glared at him ruthlessly.

n

nHis Sword Intent erupted, and the dazzling sword energy transformed the surroundings into a sword domain.

n

nEverything in the world became sword energy, breaking through the dragon might that came rushing at him.

n

n“Phoenix Essence Sword Technique!”

n

nWith his finger as a sword and the support of his Sword Intent, a beam of invincible destructive sword light pierced through heaven and earth. It extended to more than 2,000 feet in size and went slashing down in an overpowering manner.

n

nEverywhere the sword energy touched turned into a vacuum.

n

nThe destructive power it contained obliterated everything in its path.

n

n“Your strength is not enough,” Ao Yuanxiao responded disdainfully.

n

nRoar!

n

nWith a loud roar, the beams of green light shot out and transformed into his true form. A thousand-foot-long azure dragon appeared in his place.

n

nUnlike the Deluge Dragon, his bloodline was pure and his dragon tendons were complete.

n

nAs soon as he appeared, he could suppress all beasts with his dragon might and make them yield.

n

n“Allow me to demonstrate to you the true ability of the North Sea Dragon Tribe,” Ao Yuanxiao proclaimed.

n

nThousands of lightning bolts condensed into a lightning bead and converged on the dragon claw.

n

n“Thunderburst!”

n

nWith a flick of his dragon tail, he tore through the air. The dragon claw clashed with the sword energy that was slashing towards him. The lightning bead exploded, and an earth-shattering power erupted from the collision between the two entities.

n

nThe world went dark in an instant.

n

nUnable to withstand this extremely powerful force, the space began to collapse in wisps like a dense spider web coming apart.

n

nWith this blow,

n

nthe two of them fought to a draw.

n

n“Eh! Did you block it?” Ao Yuanxiao exclaimed in surprise.

n

nThen he became infuriated.

n

n“How about a taste of this move?”

n

nA vertical eye appeared between his brows. The eye contained an endless source of lightning energy.

n

nHe formed a seal with his dragon claws and deployed a secret technique.

n

n“Lightning Sea World Destruction!”

n

nThe vertical eye rushed out from between his eyebrows. In the span of one wind breeze, it morphed into thousands of feet tall and appeared in the world.

n

nMore bolts of violent lightning burst out of it.

n

nIn an instant,

n

nthe world turned into a sea of lightning. Every bolt of lightning was as thick as an adult’s thigh, and the power each contained was even more terrifying.

n

nAfter locking onto Xiao Ran, countless lightning bolts shot towards him in an overpowering rush.

n

n“Force of the Malevolent Dragon!” Xiao Ran’s expression did not change as he counter-attacked.

n

nSupreme power filled his body to the brim. That extreme power circulated madly like the roar of countless lightning bolts.

n

nThe slightest movement could easily tear space apart.

n

nWhen the first step of the Traversing the Heavens in Twelve Steps landed, Xiao Ran reappeared before the sea of lightning.

n

nAbsolute power could break anything.

n

nHe threw a punch. Wherever the golden fist passed, everything turned to dust.

n

nEven the vertical eye between heaven and earth was smashed to smithereens by this terrifying fist force.

n

nWhen the second step landed,

n

nXiao Ran appeared beside Ao Yuanxiao and looked at him in disdain. “The North Sea Dragon Tribe is nothing much after all.”

n

nHe grabbed his dragon head and squeezed with all his 5 mighty fingers.

n

n“Stop it!” Ao Yuanxiao roared in a cracked voice.

n

nXiao Ran was unmoved. Regardless of how strong his physical body was or how strong his dragon scale armor was, he could not repel this power.

n

nPow!

n

nThe dragon’s head was crushed straightaway, and a mini Deluge Dragon rushed out of his body. It hurriedly deployed an evasion technique to escape towards the horizon, without once looking back.

n

nHe was really fast!

n

nHowever, Xiao Ran was faster. With his third step, he blocked his escape route.

n

n“Where are you going?”

n

nApotropaic Divine Lightning surged from his palm and turned into a huge lightning net, securely trapping his dragon soul.

n

nWith a few contractions, he was completely subdued.

n

nAo Yuanxiao struggled. Without his physical body, all that was left was his soul. Under the strong Yang energy of the Apotropaic Divine Lightning, bolts of lightning struck his body relentlessly, causing him to scream in pain.

n

n“I’m the Ninth Prince of the North Sea Dragon Tribe. You can’t kill me! Otherwise, even if you escape to the corners of the world, the North Sea Dragon Tribe will never let you off.” Ao Yuanxiao endured the burning pain in his soul and shouted his final threat.

n

n“I’ll wait for them,” Xiao Ran replied.

n

nHe then maneuvered the Apotropaic Divine Lightning and destroyed his soul.

n

n“No…”

n

nThere was absolutely nothing left after the lightning’s massacre.

n

nA dragon-shaped mark flew out and rushed towards Xiao Ran.

n

nIt was extremely fast. However, before it could rush into Xiao Ran’s body, the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire rushed out from above his head. In a flash, it trapped the dragon-shaped mark and refined it before absorbing.

n

n“As one would expect from someone from the North Sea Dragon Tribe, you have quite a lot of tricks up your sleeve,” Xiao Ran said.

n

nWalking to his physical body, he looked at the thousand-foot-long dragon body. The dragon tendon was intact. He smiled in satisfaction.

n

nHe put the corpse into his Seven Treasures Rainbow Jade Belt.

n

nAt this moment,

n

nthe 3 golden-armored figures also returned. All the disciples of the Heavenly Yin Sect had been eradicated.

n

nXiao Ran lifted the Spawning Soldiers from Beans spell, they turned into Stars Sand again and he put them away.

n

nThe Golden Tome of Creation opened to two pages. One page recorded all the disciples of the Heavenly Yin Sect, including the Heavenly Yin Sect Master.

n

nThe other page showed Ao Yuanxiao’s record. He was accorded one page of his own.

n

nHowever, when the rewards were stacked together, six items appeared. It was an unprecedented windfall.

n

n5.2 million Mastery points, 300 years of Martial Arts Evolution, 300 years of soul evolution, Summon the Wind (Spiritual Skill, Heaven-rank Superior-Grade), one portion of dragon soul, and a Water Gauge Mystic Origin Fruit.

n

nHe added 2 million Mastery points to Summon the Wind skill.

n

nThen 2 million Mastery points were added to the Nine Heavens Evil Spirit Purification Skill.

n

nThe remaining 1.2 million Mastery points were all added to the Spirit Shifting Soul Control Technique.

n

nAfter the attributes were refreshed,

n

nSummon the Wind: Minor Achievement. It had increased by three realms.

n

nThe realm of the Nine Heavens Evil Spirit Purification Skill did not change at all. The higher the level of the Godfiend technique, the higher the Mastery points needed. However, the purifying spiritual force increased in level again, and its power became stronger when it was in use.

n

nSpirit Shifting Soul Control Technique: Perfection. It had risen by two realms.
