Dan Juang and Yon Bin's bodies fell to the ground after they threw punches with tremendous force that blocked their attacks. Both immediately spurted fresh blood.It turned out that the hundredfold strength that the two possessed meant absolutely nothing to Liong Yun. Even the young man made no move to block their attacks. Only the divine energy that replaced the youth's body counterattacked the two attacks.And Juan and Yon Bin look totally helpless. They didn't get up after being knocked to the ground. Their bodies look very weak. Slowly, the body is starting to turn black. Moments later, both of them caught fire. It was as if, inside their bodies, there was a fire burning from within."Fire burns the veins!"Liong Yun briefly heard someone mention the jutsu he used on his two opponents. The young man realized someone was watching him from a distance. But he pretended not to know.The vein-scorching flame technique was one of the Fire Star Sect's signature moves. If people are hit a
Liong Yun's body was now covered in a thin white light. He was already able to condense his strength so that the radiance of supreme firepower did not spread far.Liong Yun used the white fire shadow art he had just created to step forward across the surface of the lake, whose water was emitting a reddish color. In one dash, he was already on a small piece of land in the middle of the lake.After a few steps, Liong Yun reached a small land located in the middle of a lake. The ground before had only looked like an ordinary rock mound. However, just as he set his foot on it, an unexpected incident occurred. The land magically transformed into a giant snake that coiled before him.The competition flag that Liong Yun had to obtain in order to continue this match was clearly displayed on the snake's head. Liong Yun was quite taken aback but did not panic. He was only surprised by the appearance of the snake. Even though he had never felt the creature's presence at all before.Liong Yung re
The girl who was beaten by the snake was wearing tattered clothes. From the clothes previously worn by men, Liong Yun realized that the girl was in disguise.When the girl was almost exhausted from fighting the snakes that kept attacking her, Thian Long appeared before her. Instantly, the snakes were surprised to see something glistening golden under the young man's clothes. The snakes then walked away."Pervert youth! You seem to be the owner of the snake!"Bummmmm!Liong Yun gaped at the sudden attack from the girl he helped. He didn't understand why she suddenly attacked him. Even though he had saved her from death's target.Liong Yun only scratched his head, which didn't itch. He also left the place. Earlier, he saw that the girl he helped was carrying a white flag, a sign that she had won the competition.The young man then moved swiftly towards the entrance of the forest. A few moments later, he arrived at the destination and immediately came out of the forest. Everyone who was
"What do you mean by that, golden snake?"Liong Yun frowned, not understanding what the Golden Snake King said. The snake said that the white flag on its head was a seal that kept its power from flowing to its full potential. All he knew was that the flag had been put up by the organizer of the competition he was currently participating in."Your Majesty, I am a spiritual beast that has a high level worthy of the level of God. My previous master considered that power to be very terrible. That's why he sealed the power so that it would not emit as it should. He himself was afraid that this power would bring bad effects to mankind, so when I was with him, he also sealed that power," said the Golden Snake King.The Golden Snake King also explained that he was willing to get the power-locking seal because he was very pleased with his master. He who has high loyalty thinks that what his employer is doing is for the common good.But after his master felt that he would leave the world, he wa
Liong Yun followed his golden snake's request. He immediately hid in a place where it was difficult for people to find him. The young man's energy beam was not felt at all. Meanwhile, the Golden Snake King had changed back into his flute form.In fact, Liong Yun was not the least bit afraid of the people who would come to that place. But his goal of wanting to investigate what exactly was going on in that place and what the secret behind the competition was led him to follow the Golden Snake King's request. He was sure that the person who would come would have a high power and a secret that was special enough that the Golden Snake King ordered him to hide.Liong Yun said it was indeed a bit difficult to feel the presence of people who would come to that place. He also firmly believed what the Golden Snake King said was true: that person carried an inheritance stone that made their strength undetectable.I slowly heard the soles of the feet. Some time after Liong Yun hid, three men dre
"I don't know who that old man is; I'm sure his supernatural powers surpass Lin Yulong, the person who claims to be the descendant of the Heavenly Dragon Warrior. Even though that person's abilities are above the average person in the Golden Cloud Hills," muttered Liong Yun.Liong Yun was still in that place. He did not follow the departure of three people dressed all in black. The mysterious old man made him more curious. Moreover, he was very sure that a white flag seal was in that place."Sir, it seems that the old man's strength was obtained from the white flag seal that holds the supreme heretical power in the martial world."Voices that were sent using telepathy, or the art of sending voices without speaking, suddenly sounded through the ears of Liong Yun's soul. The young man knew that the one who spoke was the golden snake king, who was now in the form of a Golden Flute on his clothes."Are you referring to the heretical art that is a counterpoint to the Seven Divine Gates, th
"To think it has such a strong defense”Liong Yun was quite taken aback by the Heaven-Shaking Demon King's toughness. He thought he could defeat the old man by using the highest level of fire core energy. But with the seven devil gates' art still raw, the Heaven-Shaking Demon King was still too formidable. The core energy of fire is only able to fight on par with the old man.The battle continued fiercely. Some time passed, and none of them showed who was superior. Their abilities are equally strong and deadly. The situation in the forest was even more chaotic. Liong Yun was worried that the enemy's help was coming. He is certainly the one at a loss.The confusion was not only experienced by Liong Yun. The Heaven-Shaking Demon Lord was also confused by what had happened. He didn't think there was any knowledge that could match the strength he possessed other than the knowledge of the seven gates of the Gods."How can this young man survive the onslaught of the Seven Demon Gates by rel
Liong Yun moved quickly following the departure of the person who was stalking him. He wondered if the one who was stalking him earlier actually had the seven devil gates' magical energy like he felt. Because the power he sensed was very similar to that possessed by the Heaven-Shaking Demon King, but it was far more pure and terrifying.For miles, Liong Yun tried to chase the person he was looking for, but there were no traces left by that person. Unknowingly, he was already far away from the forbidden forest. So he finally decided to stop searching."Hmmmm… It looks like there's only one white flag left in that Forbidden Forest. The flag that is the key to a pillow for the storage of the Heavenly Dragon Sword that has been sought. I actually don't need that sword; it's just that if it falls into someone else's hands, it will be very dangerous and can be very detrimental. At least I kept the flag so it wouldn't fall into the hands of the wrong person," muttered Liong Yun.After having
They were the Divine Hands Deity, the Sword Lightning Deity, and the White Tiger King. Without hesitation, the three joined Lin Lian Xue's side to face the remaining Four Dragon Protectors. With their arrival, the attacks that once threatened lives were now countered with equally ferocious strikes.The tide of battle began to turn. In mere moments, Lin Lian Xue delivered a decisive blow to the Southern Dragon, causing him to collapse with labored breaths before finally succumbing to his injuries. The remaining three Dragon Protectors began to falter against the relentless attacks of these formidable warriors.Amid the chaos of battle, the Black Dragon Emperor, witnessing the destruction of his army, could no longer contain his fury. With a face flushed in rage, he lunged toward Lin Lian Xue, determined to end her life. “How dare you!” he roared in hatred.However, just before the Black Dragon Emperor could reach Lin Lian Xue, a dazzling white light sliced through his path, accompanied
The awaited morning finally arrived, the ninth day of the fifth month. The skies above the Northern Empire’s border were gray, as if nature itself felt the tension between the two sides about to engage in a life-and-death battle.The combined forces of the Southern and Eastern Empires, led by the Master of Dragon Island, moved forward in neat formations. In the distance, they saw the Black Dragon Empire’s army, already prepared across the valley, led directly by the Black Dragon Emperor and his four Dragon Guardians—a newly formed rank after many sect leaders had been killed by Liong Yun.The Black Dragon Empire’s troops lined up with discipline. The soldiers, clad in black robes and menacing masks, were accompanied by dark art practitioners infamous for their ruthlessness and willingness to sacrifice lives. Loud cheers echoed from their ranks, as if to shake the courage of their opponents.Standing on a small hill, the Master of Dragon Island observed both sides preparing for battle.
Two days later, the forces of the Eastern Empire and the Southern Empire arrived at the border of the Northern Imperial City. The thunderous sound of thousands of soldiers marching shattered the stillness of the cold morning at the border. Amidst the formation, figures who symbolized hope moved with composed confidence.The Southern Emperor, accompanied by General Guo and the Master of Dragon Island, personally led his troops, while on the other side, the charismatic Eastern Emperor advanced with his strongest generals.The Southern Emperor, with his charisma and experience as a ruler, exuded authority, while the Eastern Emperor, who was once a legendary warrior, displayed his prowess. Two great leaders, commanding massive forces, prepared to launch an assault against the Black Dragon Empire.Aware of the high risk of conflict between these two massive armies, which could prove disastrous for both sides, the Southern Emperor and Eastern Emperor agreed to hold a meeting.In the midst o
With the strength he had unleashed up to half of his power, Lo Hao struck the ground with a powerful fist, and a violent tremor immediately spread, creating large cracks that crept toward Lin Lian Xue. The surrounding trees trembled, and some ancient roots emerged from the earth, making the battlefield even more chaotic.Lin Lian Xue avoided the cracks with an agile leap, but Lo Hao was already in front of her, ready to slash her with a hand that had now transformed into sharp black claws.The clash between Lo Hao's claws and Lin Lian Xue's sword sparked a blinding flash of energy. The air around them hissed as if burning, emitting sparks from their relentless battle.Each of Lin Lian Xue's moves, clad in a light resembling a dragon's shadow, aimed at Lo Hao's vital points. However, Lo Hao was now not only defending; he began launching counterattacks that were even more ferocious. "This is the end of the bloodline of the Dragon Sky Warrior!" he shouted, throwing a powerful punch that
The darkness of the forest surrounding Lin Lian Xue grew denser, as if cloaked in a mysterious mist that enveloped the trees and made each step feel heavy. Ancient trees with roots that sprawled like living creatures lurked, and the typically tranquil sounds of the night now echoed with strange vibrations, as if the forest was breathing in a sinister rhythm.Lin Lian Xue continued to move nimbly, following the dark figure she had chased from the camp, but slowly she realized she had strayed far from the imperial army.Suddenly, the figure stopped in the middle of the forest, right in a clearing dimly lit by moonlight. There, he stood tall, dressed in rough attire made of black fur mixed with blood. His face was hard and fierce, his lips curling into a smile that revealed fanged teeth."Welcome to my abode, sweet lady," he said with a deep voice that echoed in the darkness. "Surrender, and you will live happily as my wife. Or..." His words hung in the air, full of threat.Lin Lian Xue
The great army of the Southern Empire continued its march northward. Thousands of brave soldiers marched together under the fluttering banners bearing the golden tiger emblem, the symbol of the Southern Empire's strength and courage.Amidst the army stood the imposing figure of Great General Guo, firmly mounted on his horse. His sharp eyes gazed ahead as if foreseeing every obstacle they would face. His large, muscular body radiated the aura of a formidable leader, with a face that seemed prepared to face anything for the safety of the world.Beside him was the Master of Dragon Island, an elderly man with white hair who remained robust and dignified. His face was resolute, with eyes that exuded the calmness of a warrior who had faced many battles. His daughter, a beautiful swordswoman with a resolute spirit matching her father’s, accompanied him, holding the family heirloom sword entrusted to her since childhood. Her face was stern but conveyed a hidden care, especially for the fate o
A golden shadow moved swiftly, darting between the trees like lightning slicing through the night. The Divine Hands Master, an old martial world figure with incredible speed, moved with one purpose. The Nameless Haunted Valley, where the young and mighty Liong Yun resided with his loyal followers.The valley was shrouded in deadly poisonous mist, filled with natural traps and ferocious beasts. But for the Divine Hands Master, none of these were obstacles. His speed was unstoppable, leaving a golden trail in the emptiness.Upon reaching the Haunted Valley, the Divine Hands Master immediately entered the residence of his master. Liong Yun, a young man with a handsome face, a firm jaw, and thick eyebrows resembling eagle wings, sat atop a jade stone with an air of authority. He appeared more like a learned scholar than someone from the rough world of martial arts.A gentle smile graced his lips, but his gaze was cold and sharp, displaying an unshakeable calmness. Behind his serene appear
That night, the atmosphere in the Northern and Western regions of the Black Dragon Empire’s territory turned menacing. The usually calm night wind now felt bone chilling, accompanied by dark shadows flitting in every corner of the villages.Many of the residents were terrified. Panicked screams could be heard everywhere, while the campfires in the middle of the villages flickered under the cold moonlight."My child! Please! Where is my child?" An old woman ran around crying in front of her empty house."He just went out this morning! How could he have disappeared?" an old man whispered to his neighbor, trembling. "Others have disappeared too. A few other young men are also missing.""This must be the work of demons!" his neighbor replied, pale-faced. "I heard from the neighboring village that three young men disappeared the same way! No trace, just a black mist left behind. Those who vanished all share the same trait they were all born on the first day of the seventh month.""Oh gods.
Liong Chen nodded, his voice still cold. “Not just any blood. The Black Dragon Emperor requires the blood of a hundred young men to be taken within two days.”The right protector fell silent for a moment, his face tense. “A hundred young men in two days? In our current situation? Our power is already fragmented after the last war!”“If not,” continued Liong Chen, disregarding the complaint, “his strength will never fully recover. And when that happens, the Black Dragon Empire will lose its leader forever.”The right protector furrowed his brows even deeper. “Without the Emperor, we will be destroyed... All his followers will perish.”“You know what needs to be done,” Liong Chen said sharply, his gaze full of pressure.“I will arrange everything,” replied the right protector firmly, although his mind was in turmoil.After the Right Protector left the room, Liong Chen remained beside the Black Dragon Emperor, his eyes observing the ruler’s weakened body. “A hundred lives—that’s all that
