The Ouroboros flew at Zephyr and sped up like lightning — carrying with it cunning deceit and absolute poison to stop him. Simultaneously, the golden ray of mystical energy found itself in contact with Zephyr as he reached out for the draconic energy. A great roar ensued, Zephyr felt as though he was being split open, not by the blade, but by the immense force thrust upon him by the golden kindle. Zephyr tried to focus his Might, to recite the Way, but before he could do so, his body instinctively absorbed the energy.Zephyr coughed, the blow from the Ouroboros had hit hard, he felt as though his back had split open, his insides reeled from the blow. He found his lips matted with blood, the cave floor painted with his freshly expelled blood. Zephyr thanked the stars; it was not fatal. “I got it, I did it!” Zephyr had absorbed the draconic energy, he had taken his first step into ‘becoming a dragon’. “You little c*nt, give me back my draconic energy!” Kerr cursed through gritted teeth,
Zephyr could feel great roars that rose from within, he felt as the dragon struggled and trashed inside him. Even though he had been studying the Way for a while now, Zephyr was never a dragon in the first place. Therefore, the draconic powers within him naturally resisted. “Hmph!” Zephyr tried to control the rising urges, a trickle of blood leaked out from his mouth. Zephyr had already taken a severe hit from Kerr and is now struggling with the draconic energies within. He had to fully absorb the energy, fully incorporate it into his very being, otherwise, he might not see the light of day. Zephyr was on the run, Lightfoot could only get him so far, and Kerr was still on his tail. All the while, Zephyr summoned every ounce of focus he could to keep the energies in check. “I have to get somewhere safe, somewhere secret…” He could feel Kerr catching up with every step, malice in his pursuit. Zephyr ran his mind through all possible respites. “There!”Zephyr remembered his initial enc
Suddenly, a great change erupted within Zephyr. He felt a great dragon rise from within, and stirred everything in its wake. Zephyr focused his all into controlling and maintaining the transition. After all, draconic energy was not to be messed with. Commoners who ever find themselves in position with a strand of this divine power could already be improved manifold, moreover, having a power as great as this?Slowly, Zephyr bridged the gap between himself and the draconic powers, from within, a strange feeling sprouted. It was an indescribable feeling, like a hug from a mother, everything Zephyr did was immensely calming. Zephyr felt as though he had achieved dragon-hood, completely tuned with the Earth and sky. He could feel every fibre of muscle in his body being filled with incredible power, it pulsated endlessly. He could even feel all his energy channels eagerly burst open, ready to absorb more draconic energy. The injuries he sustained from Kerr healed quickly, strengthened even.
“I’ve broken through to a Strength of level eight, although there's a difference of two levels, I can already feel my power boiling over. Hell, it might even be stronger than an actual Strength of level eight,” Zephyr nodded approvingly as he felt every drop of power in every inch of his muscles. The true energy within him brimmed. Even though he was much stronger than he was before, the two scales he had had further augmented it, thus allowed incredible fortitude. The Way allowed it’s user to conjure 30,600 individual dragon scales, each of them contained an insurmountable amount of power, much like a sliver of draconic Might.Zephyr burst forth a fist, his scales shined brightly at the act of it and transferred unimaginable powers into his arm, through to his fist. His attack sent the cave asunder, as if it stopped time itself. IN an instant, a hole punctured into the cave wall. ‘Damn, this is really nice! I wonder what this punch can do to a person?’ thought Zephyr as he seriously
“Hmph!” Zephyr flashed a wry smile; he had not stopped there. Zephyr dove through the water curtain, out into the Forest, and went after Kerr, still mid-flight. Zephyr reminded Kerr who he was dealing with, he stomped onto Kerr, and it sent him crashing down into the ground below. Kerr let out a scream of pain, both hearing the snapping of bone as they crashed into the dirt, it even sent out shockwaves that ruffled the trees. As the dirt kicked up, the leaves fell gently down onto the cracked grounds below. As the dust clouds dissipated, it revealed Zephyr as he stood upon Kerr above a web of cracks, like a spider with its prey.Kerr coughed a fit, and spewed blood out onto the ground, his looks showed of the disbelief he felt. He stared up at Zephyr, eyes full of hatred. He could not believe how an insect like Zephyr had bested him, and now standing atop him. Kerr could only writhe helplessly while he glared at Zephyr. “H-how?! How is this possible?! How did you get so strong! You’re
A scroll was found, but to be more exact, it was a painting. Zephyr unfurled the scroll, it revealed a scenic view of mountains, spring water, poppies, and more. At first glance, it looked like an ordinary painting, yet, Zephyr knew there was more to this painting. Why would Kerr have this on him? More so, how did this fragile painting not get damaged during their intense scuffle earlier? Zephyr knew this was no ordinary drawing.“There must be a secret somewhere!” Zephyr was keen-eyed by nature; he was sure that this was no ordinary artwork. He studied the painting closely, observed it’s mountains, trees, birds, flowers, beasts… Suddenly, he felt his power swell up inside him, a hurricane formed within. His whole body shook vigorously, a small stream of blood trickled out the side of his mouth. The painting had changed, it no longer showed a scenic mountain view. No, it showed its true nature.Swords and blades. That was it. A multitude of bladed weaponry appeared in his mind’s eye
“This painting’s Blade Focus when compared to Earth-shatterer’s Fist Focus does have little difference.” Zephyr said. “I, however, do not wish to stay at their level, I want my own style of Focus to be better than theirs!”“My Blade’s Focus shall be legendary; nobody shall ever come close! I will be the strongest swordsman there ever will be!” Zephyr’s eyes lit up once again, and allowed a steady stream of iridescent light to pour out. He carefully focused upon the two battle Focuses, meticulously chanted his mantra, poured his all into this ritual. He lifted a finger and drew slashes, as if it were a blade itself.Following his finger’s movements, his Focus transcended his fingertips, and materialized into little slashing blades. ‘The blade is the master of all weaponry, the ultimate tool for battle!’ Zephyr thought. “My Earth-shatterer, although bold and powerful, is clumsy and slow… However, even if the Focus within the painting was vile and wicked. I, on the other hand, will ha
The Feather Forest was still and quiet, nothing out of the ordinary had occurred. However, the breeze that flowed throughout the canopy, and through the leaves of the trees were still wrought with cold dead air. A great howl pierced the silence — the horrid cry of a wolf. Its silhouette could be seen as it darted through the greens with it’s speed of light lightning. A sword cut through the howl, and shimmered brightly in the darkness, much like how lightning cuts through the sky, it then shot straight for the large wolf’s head. Seeing a great flash coming its way, the wolf yelped, the light from the sword revealed its face of terror. The wolf was large, much like a camel, it’s maw ripened with fresh blood. Besides that, its spine was covered in bristles, terrible, terrible spikes of death. A common fighter would have screamed at the sight of the beast for it was no ordinary wolf, it was a Direwolf, a tier-two beast of the Forest. It was not to be underestimated. Even an Agility figh
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
