Zephyr shook his head as he felt the prince’s signature energy. It felt hollow. “Hmph! How useless are you? Why did it take so long for you to finish this heap of trash? You’ve wasted so much time that even I needed to step in! Do you know how much it cost me to bring you in here?!” the Ninth prince scolded. “Yes, your highness. Please forgive me for wasting your time. Worry not, I will be done with him quickly!” the Sun guardian replied hastily. ‘So it’s true, the Ninth prince did smuggle him in!’ Zephyr thought while he showed a grimace on his face.Zephyr prodded his scales, slowly channeling their energies again. He had to tread lightly, it was now or never. “Who knew that this runt would escape the many great fighters I’ve brought in!” the Ninth prince glared at Zephyr. “Indeed, we’ve severely underestimated this b*stard. He’s stronger than he looks, if we let him fester his powers more, he will no doubt be a thorn in your highness’ side!” the guardian continued quickly. Were the
“Indeed. You’re but an insect of level Eight! For the prince himself to notice you would be an honor! What’re you hesitating for?!” The others began to clamor with their opinions. The prince smiled widely, pleased at the situation. He knew Zephyr would put down his pride and follow him. After all, he was but an insect. No matter how strong he was, he would still end up becoming the prince's lapdog.“Heh, follow you? Bullsh*t!” Zephyr spat. The prince’s smile disappeared from his face after he heard what Zephyr said. A great surge of energy burst forth from Zephyr, as if something divine had come down upon them. A thunderous roar boomed. The Way of the Dragon was used, and it fueled Zephyr’s energy beyond respite, reaching new levels! “What? What are you doing?” the prince asked, he lost his cool when he felt Zephyr’s sudden growth in his energy. He knew Zephyr was strong, that did not matter to him. What mattered was his actions, this was nothing but an insult to his royal status.
As he saw the many attacks that were coming his way, Zephyr steeled himself, and raised his head high to scream so loud that even the Heavens would be able to hear it.“Seventh Slash!”“Unbeatable Focus!”“The Way of the Dragon!”With that, Zephyr called upon all his Might, morphed into a God of War, and greeted every attack with verve. Dust and sand were sent shooting in all directions, followed by a bunch of rolling dust clouds. Such an act attracted the attention of many fighters, yet once they felt it, they dared not go near it. They knew that this was not their battle to fight.“Is that the prince?”“There are so many great fighters on a Strength of Eight?”“The f*ck is that brat’s sword skill? Is that Focus?”The fighters kept a safe distance as they watched the battle unfold. They found themselves reflexively backing off, afraid of the shockwaves that came their way.“Ahi Fist!” yelled the prince. Being of royal descent, the power the prince held was far different than
Quicksand was one of the many dangers found in the Land of Despair. Once caught, it was extremely difficult to escape from, almost borderline impossible to be exact. Leaves, dust, and rocks were all blown away as the prince’s attack made its way towards the defenseless Zephyr. ‘You’re dead now!’ the guardian thought as he sent out another bladed attack. He knew Zephyr had to be killed here. He was too powerful to be left alive. He was too powerful for a measly sixteen-year old. Never had he seen so many fighters be felled just like that. Were Zephyr given time to grow and train, his destiny path would be infinite.Feeling the approach of the prince’s fist and the guardian’s sword, Zephyr frowned. ‘I was too reckless! However, I can’t just die like this!’ he thought. “Spirit energy!” he called. Zephyr quickly conjured up a sheet of runes in his mind, and channeled his spiritual energy through it. Suddenly, a beam of bright, white light shot out from his forehead. The spirit beam made i
Zephyr had been digging a path for a long time. It was so long that even he had lost track of time. Suddenly, the ground below him gave way. He fell through as the sand suddenly left him. Then, he landed onto the ground hard, the shock of which jolted him back to a more conscious state. He felt the ground below him, and it was solid! He slowly opened his eyes, and scanned the strange, unfamiliar lands around him.He heaved a big sigh, shoved his sword into the ground below as he sat down cross-legged. Then, he recited The Way of the Dragon. Zephyr’s energy levels slowly regained as he continued, it restored much of his body’s energy. The strength of which was that when his strength came back, it blew away the dirt and sand that was around him.Zephyr sighed once more, this time out of relief knowing he had regained some strength back. He slowly opened his eyes, and it now revealed the glow beneath his eyelids. He wondered how long he had been in that state. It mattered not now, for h
Dragon Lizards were rare creatures, and not many knew of their existence. Though, rumors of them roaming about persisted throughout. Not even the most skilled fighters would dare cross this beast. ‘Spirits and Alchemists can’t even take on seven-tiered beasts, much less an Agile!’ Zephyr thought. He had to run, and fast. His body trembled in fear, he did not expect to meet such a monster in such a place. Zephyr ignited Lightfoot, preparing to speed away. “If this thing gets out, all of Ahi will be in trouble!”A great roar came, its vibrations travelled and stopped Zephyr in his tracks. He had not gotten far. Zephyr spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, before collapsing to the ground. Zephyr would not so easily escape from its clutches. The Lizard roared once more, blowing away boulders. Zephyr covered his ears by the loudness of the roar. He felt as though the whole place was about to explode. ‘F*ck! Am I really going to die here?!’ Zephyr thought. He felt as though his muscles and te
The Winged Serpent’s power was terrible. Even a small taste of its spiritual energy was enough to shock most people. It shattered the Lizard’s spirit, sending it to reel back from its offensive stance. The rune on its forehead started to bleed profusely. ‘Now!’ Zephyr thought, quickly seizing the chance. He activated his Might, quickly channeled his energy into one fatal blow, and sent his sword into the Lizard’s forehead. “Die!” he yelled, charging forward to the Dragon Lizard’s rune. The Dragon Lizard let out a howl, much like a roaring thunder. Zephyr’s eardrums hurt at the sound of it.Elsewhere, the Winged Serpent spirit continued to battle with the Dragon Lizard’s spirit. Zephyr entered the Lizard’s spirit realm through its forehead rune. It was not easy though, as Zephyr felt a great wave of indescribable pain wash over him. He had intended to hide within the Dragon Lizard’s realm, hoping to avoid its attacks. Though, he did not expect within the Lizard to be so horrible.Drag
“What do you think? You’re lucky I’m just an ounce of what I am, otherwise that thing would be dead by now! Give me your body, only then will I be able to slay it!” the Serpent answered. “Not to worry, I’d find you a new body for your spirit!” It continued. “You want my body?” Zephyr laughed. “Indeed. I want it, you should be honored! It is something most can only dream of!” the Serpent replied coldly. Zephyr could not stop laughing at that.The Winged Serpent’s power was undeniably strong. It was able to retain its intelligence through a bit of spirit stolen from the Dragon Lizard. Were it to be at its full power, it would be absolutely devastating. However, Zephyr knew if he had offered his body to it, the Serpent would no doubt absorb his spirit too. It would never honor its word!“Have you thought it over? I promise I’ll make it worth your while!” the Serpent pushed. It was obvious it was unable to resist the Lizard’s resistance much longer. The Lizard itself was in a difficult p
Zephyr had a strong soul and had reached the peak of the Magic Realm, which was enough to communicate with the Ten Thousand Thunder Pearl and communicate with Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor!Moreover!Not only did Zephyr practice the Ancient Draconic Way, but he was also the successor chosen by his old friend, the Celestial Martial Emperor!This....This was beyond Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor's expectations!Surprise!It was a huge surprise!Pausing for a moment!The Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor spoke once more, "Right! Due to a special reason, you can just accept my inheritance and there is no need to acknowledge me as your Master! It's fine so long as you're willing to promise me that you won't pass down the inheritance to an outsider!"......Similarly!Not only was the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor pleasantly surprised, but Zephyr himself was also pleasantly surprised after hearing his words.Good heavens!After all, the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor was a genuine Creatio
"After millions of years, this strand of will of mine is growing weaker and weaker, and could vanish at any moment!""But it just so happens that among the younger generation of the Thunder Dragon Clan, there are quite a few with extraordinary talent and formidable strength, even though they have the Amethyst Spiritual Liquid to temper their bones! However, their soul realms are still a little lacking, and they're utterly unable to enter the Ten Thousand Lightning Pearl and communicate with my thoughts! Thus, there's naturally no way for them to obtain my inherited supreme technique!"'If I keep waiting like this, it'll be hard to say when the juniors of the Thunder Dragon Clan will be qualified to enter the inner world of the Ten Thousand Lightning Pearl!'"I'm truly unwilling to accept this, and I'm very afraid as well. They're unable to obtain my lifetime's inheritance before this strand of soul remnant will vanishes completely, and my Thunder Dragon Clan can’t rise once more in
When his strength was strong enough to be fearless of everything!After a moment of silence!Zephyr cupped his fists at the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor, "Junior Zephyr thanks Senior Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor for lending me this treasure!"The Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor nodded slightly, and replied with a hint of majesty in his voice, "Well, you don't have to thank me! Brother Celestial Martial Emperor once did me a favor, and since you are his successor, I naturally have to take care of you!""If I'm not mistaken, the reason why you tried so hard to get this Ten Thunder Thunder Pearl must be because of the Ancient Draconic Way, right?""After all, although this peerless divine art is extraordinarily powerful, the difficulty of breaking through in cultivation can be said to be at the pinnacle of the world!""Without enough treasures and energy, it's almost impossible to improve one's cultivation!""Coincidentally, this Ten Thousand Thunder Pearl of mine comes from beyond th
As for the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor, he stood there with a calm expression and looked at Zephyr motionlessly.It seemed that the calm before the storm was about to erupt.The Curse Devil King was even more nervous. He shouted crazily in Zephyr's heart, asking Zephyr to run away as soon as possible.However...Zephyr stood there fearlessly with a calm expression, staring at the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor.Such a scene!It lasted for half a minute!Suddenly!The incomparably serious Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor suddenly raised his head and burst into hearty laughter.Closely behind!The Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor looked at Zephyr and nodded repeatedly in praise. He praised him in an extremely amazed tone, "Good boy! Good boy! You are indeed worthy of being the successor chosen by the Celestial Martial Emperor. You are indeed courageous and smart!""Kid, to tell you the truth, from the moment you entered the Ten Thousand Lightning Palace, I felt a particularly familiar
Zephyr was shocked. Being watched by such an Emperor at the Creation Realm at such a close distance was really not an easy thing.If it were any other warrior with weak essences, he would probably be scared out of his wits and would not be able to resist the soul-level pressure at all.However...Zephyr has a strong spirit energy, and his state of mind was as firm as a rock.Under the gaze of Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor, Zephyr didn't even bat an eyelid. Instead, he raised his head and looked into the emperor's eyes. In a voice that was neither servile nor overbearing, he said, "I really can't imagine anyone else in the entire Thunder Dragon Clan who can compare to you, Senior. You're absolutely peerless and matchless...."Pausing for a moment!Zephyr quickly changed the topic and bowed respectfully again. "Senior Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor, it's my first time here, and I don't have any hostility. Please don't blame me for accidentally offending you!"Hearing that!The Ten T
Hearing what the Curse Devil King said, Zephyr sighed helplessly in his heart.There was nothing he could do!There was nothing he could do now!If Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor wanted to attack him and wouldn't give up so easily, then he could only fight with all his might.However...Judging from the intense collision of spirit energy between them earlier, it would appear that the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor had no intention of killing Zephyr.Thinking of this!Zephyr was much more relaxed, but he still did not dare to be careless. He could only raise his head and carefully size up the magnificent Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor in front of him.At this moment...The Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor in front of him had the appearance of a middle-aged man. His face was upright and his long hair was tied behind his back. His bearing was extraordinary. He possessed a mighty aura even without being angry. His eyes were purple in color and gave off a deep ancient feeling...Not simple!
Zephyr was clearly only at the first level of the Will Realm, and his soul force was merely at the ninth level of the Magic Realm. Yet, he was able to fight head-on against an ancient emperor like the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor.Even if the Ten Thousand Thunder Emperor was merely a remnant soul and his spirit energy wasn't as strong as it was at its peak, it was enough to prove how monstrous Zephyr was!"Swoosh!"Just as their spirit energy reached its climax and was about to destroy the entire Void...Suddenly!With the ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air, the soul pressure around Zephyr disappeared in an instant!Closely behind!Wisps of dazzling purple light energy, carrying the Will of the thunder law, quickly shuttled through the void.They looked like lightning dragons that were constantly repairing the shattered space just now.And the whole process was also very fast!In less than half a minute.The cracks in the void caused by the collision between Zeph
Om!As soon as Zephyr finished speaking, he suddenly felt a strong pressure coming at him like a huge dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.The powerful oppressive might contained within that oppressive might caused one's hair to stand on end and soul to tremble.At this moment!The entire void around Zephyr was quickly boiling like boiling water. A powerful pressure enveloped Zephyr one after another, as if the whole world was targeting and ostracizing him.No one had expected this!The purple-robed figure in front of Zephyr did not turn around or say anything. He used his spirit energy to attack Zephyr directly."Hiss...""What a frightening spiritual pressure fluctuation!""This... this is absolutely not just the Magic Realm, it's the Creation Realm!""Even if I run the Chaotic Immortal Scripture and fully activate my spirit energy, or even use all kinds of Increase means, I'm afraid I can't compare with this soul pressure fluctuation at all!"Sensing this fr
A group of Thunder Dragon Clan experts relied on their powerful techniques to gradually restore the surrounding space to its normal state.The surrounding shattered void returned to its original state!"It's done!""Next, let's go back and heal our wounds!""Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"After the group of experts from the Thunder Dragon Clan recovered their shattered space, they didn't delay for long before they flickered and left, and they merged into the surrounding thunderstorms and clouds before vanishing completely...At this moment!Other than strands of violent lightning force, the void around the Ten Thousand Lightning Bead was eerily calm.Everything was the same as usual, as if nothing had happened."Boom!"Whoosh!Suddenly!Just after the experts of the Thunder Dragon Clan disappeared.After an unknown period of time, layer after layer of lightning storm clouds suddenly converged upon the Ten Thousand Lightning Bead, breaking the silence of the surroundings.Vaguel
