Chapter 407: He's Simply a Beast!
Overseas, above the dome of the sky, a streak of colorful light drifted among the clouds.
This streak of colorful light was the small world created by the wonders of the [Uphold Heaven’s Principles] divine ability, which currently trapped Tian Qiu within, making it difficult for him to escape.
“Roar—!”
The dragon roar was fierce. At this moment, Tian Qiu had once again transformed into his true dragon body. The chi-wood atop his head summoned wind and rain, and the scales on his body reflected a cold light. There was no divine ability manifestation; he simply struck out with a claw. The imagery revealed within was plain to the extreme, summarized in one words—
Power.
“One strength breaks ten thousand techniques!”
This was the profundity of the True Dragon blood descendant. The true body was indestructible, with strength capable of pulling up mountains and surpassing seas. Although it wasn’t a divine ability, when displayed at this moment, it surpassed even a divine ability!
However, Lu Yang was not flustered in the slightest upon seeing this scene.
The next second, intense blood qi erupted from his body as well. Then, without retreating half a step, he punched out, actually intending to wrestle head-on with Tian Qiu!
Rumble!
In the blink of an eye, the two sides collided dozens, even hundreds of times. There was absolutely no demeanor of Foundation Establishment Perfection experts; it was entirely the most primitive, most savage physical slaughter. Lu Yang’s muscles snapped and bones broke, blood flying everywhere, while Tian Qiu’s scales were also torn and shattered.
How is this possible…
Tian Qiu took a step back, his face ugly to the extreme. He was a True Dragon blood descendant! In terms of true body alone, he could be called number one in the world, yet he actually didn’t win against the opponent.
Could the opponent also be a demon cultivator?
Thinking of this, Tian Qiu frowned immediately and probed tentatively: “Are you human? Or a demon?”
“Human, of course!”
Lu Yang stretched his arms. Blood qi poured down like a tide. In an instant, muscles and bones regenerated, flesh and blood grew, and his seemingly severe injuries were already healed!
[Uphold Heaven’s Principles]… really is useful!
This divine ability might lack the means to kill with one blow, but it won in variety and was very comprehensive. At the same level, there were almost no weaknesses to speak of.
And he wasn’t just activating this one divine ability.
Meanwhile, seeing Lu Yang recover from his injuries, Tian Qiu also planned to stimulate his qi and blood to recover. However, with this movement, a look of shock instantly appeared on his face.
My qi, blood, and spiritual power drained away by 10% out of thin air!?
In a flash, Tian Qiu woke up, as if breaking through a layer of fog. He saw another divine ability flowing with brilliance beside Lu Yang.
[Great Unity Embodying True Qi]!
Swallowing all things, refining all forms. In every collision just now, Lu Yang had been using this divine ability to silently swallow and refine Tian Qiu’s qi, blood, and spiritual power!
And seeing Tian Qiu react, Lu Yang secretly said “pity” in his heart:
I clearly used [Uphold Heaven’s Principles] to mimic [Knowledge-Perception Barrier] to disguise it… yet he still sensed something wrong so quickly.
If the real [Knowledge-Perception Barrier] were here, Tian Qiu probably wouldn’t have discovered that his qi, blood, and spiritual power were being constantly swallowed until his death. Helplessly, Lu Yang’s dao comprehension was insufficient, and the divine ability power was lacking. He couldn’t truly simulate the power of [Knowledge-Perception Barrier], which led to failure on the verge of success.
“Again!”
Lu Yang grinned. The qi and blood of Tian Qiu that he had just swallowed with [Great Unity Embodying True Qi] were taken out by him at this moment and added to his own true body.
Tian Qiu sneered instantly upon seeing this:
Courting death!
His dragon blood was extremely toxic to human cultivators. Using it directly without refinement like this would not repair the body but would instead cause heavy damage!
However, the next second, Tian Qiu froze on the spot.
[Convergence Origin Art]!
Lu Yang was unhurried. He use another divine ability, actually calming all the toxicity in the dragon blood and perfectly merging it with his own body!
Assimilating external forces, ten thousand law return to one.
The profundity of the [Convergence Origin Art] could even refine and integrate world essence; mere rejection reactions of the human body to dragon blood were naturally not a problem.
In an instant, Tian Qiu’s expression became ugly. Fighting Lu Yang like this—while fighting, the opponent swallowed his qi, blood, and spiritual power. After both sides were heavily injured, the opponent used the swallowed qi, blood, and spiritual power to recover himself. The result was that the opponent was unharmed, while he became weaker the more he fought!
How can I fight this?
Tian Qiu felt the intent to retreat, but Lu Yang didn’t give him the chance. As soon as he recovered, he took the initiative to rush up, putting on an appearance of wanting to trade injuries.
Rumble!
Accompanied by bursts of loud noise, one man and one dragon became entangled again. This time, Tian Qiu focused on defense but was beaten into steady retreat by Lu Yang.
Tian Qiu’s expression became increasingly gloomy.
However, beneath that facade lay extreme composure. He yielded move by move, drawing Lu Yang attack into increasingly wide-ranging and unrestrained.
At first glance, it seemed he had exhausted all his tricks.Even his occasional counterattacks were entirely within Lu Yang’s expectations, failing to gain any advantage and instead placing him in an even more dangerous situation.
Finally, Tian Qiu seemed unable to hold on.
With a movement of his dragon body, he disregarded everything, turned around, and ran. It seemed he would rather take Lu Yang’s divine ability head-on just to distance himself for the time being.
“Trying to leave?”
Lu Yang laughed arrogantly, then chased after him.
The distance between the two sides grew closer and closer, until they were within a stone’s throw!
The next second, just as Lu Yang caught up, Tian Qiu suddenly turned his dragon head around, a look of beast-like ferocity and hideousness revealing itself in his eyes.
“Go to hell!”
The bloody maw opened, and a beam of brilliant light surged out like a flood bursting a dam. Like the sea swelling and green waves overturning, it instantly filled heaven and earth!
Boom!
In an instant, the brilliant light swallowed Lu Yang’s figure. This brilliant light was a dao technique that Tian Qiu had painstakingly refined for hundreds of years to finally cultivate. It contained billions of [Mystic River Heavy Water] and possessing the profound mystery that “even a feather cannot float, and a true person cannot cross.” Ordinary people struck by it would instantly perish
I won!
A look of surprise and joy appeared in Tian Qiu’s eyes. Seeing Lu Yang suppressed by him, he was about to bite down and crush his body to thoroughly secure the victory.
However, before he could act, a clap of thunder suddenly rang out from above the dome of the sky!
Tian Qiu was instantly stunned.
The next second, he saw Lu Yang walk out unharmed from the [Mystic River Heavy Water] he had placed such high hopes on, his wide sleeves fluttering.
And behind his head, a round light slowly rotated.
[One with the World]!
Boom!
In an instant, Tian Qiu’s face turned pale. He saw sll the fortune and merit he had painstakingly accumulated over many years instantly turn to nothing in the sound of this thunder!
Heavenly Punishment!!
“No—!!!”
Tian Qiu’s eyes instantly turned blood red. He was at the critical juncture of Seeking Golden Core; how could he be without fortune and merit? This was fundamentally cutting off his Dao path!
What divine ability is this?
What the fuck is this divine ability!?
At the same time, the Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones watching the battle from afar also revealed looks of horror. Then, one by one, they began to pinch their fingers to deduce Lu Yang’s details.
“Transferring damage?”
“No, not transferring to external objects, but transferring to heaven and earth… That’s why it attracted Heavenly Punishment. What a vicious method. Does he have a grudge against heaven and earth?”
“Not only that, this person comes from the outer heavens and has no fortune or merit on him to begin with. Heavenly Punishment is useless against him. The result is that only his opponent gets hurt…”
Soon, the details of [One with the World] were deduced.
“Tian Qiu is finished!”
For a time, countless Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones fell directly into silence. When they looked at Lu Yang again, that indescribable gaze was simply like looking at a pile of shit.
Couldn’t touch!
Couldn’t fight!
Couldn’t kill!
“He’s simply a beast!”
“This doesn’t look like the skill of an outer heavens rogue cultivator… could it be a Perfected One from the Primordial Saint Sect who went to the outer heavens to cultivate a Rank 2 True Art and has now returned with success?”
