Wu wu wu!
The water droplet carried with it the power to pierce through the air. In the blink of an eye, it appeared before Zhang Xuan, intending to pierce through him.
"A water droplet that was casually thrown out is so powerful?"
Zhang Xuan's eyes narrowed in shock.
He had been wondering where the water droplets came from, but after seeing them with his own eyes, he realized how terrifying they were.
That fellow in the pool, with just a casual shake, he was already unable to withstand the ordinary water droplets. How strong was that fellow? It was hard to say whether Yang shi would be able to defeat him!
"Bloodline Ignition …"
With a jolt of his mind, he ignited the remaining half droplet of blood in his body once more. Time seemed to have slowed down once more, and the water droplet slowly appeared before him.
"We have to deal with the root of the problem. Otherwise, it will be useless!"
Zhang Xuan's body flickered as he shuttled through the water droplets and arrived in front of the pool.
Huala!
Just as he finished this, half of the blood was burned up. The water droplet behind him continued to shoot out and hit the rock wall, making a "puff" sound.
Only then did Zhang Xuan look forward.
What emerged from the lake was a massive skeleton that was several dozen meters tall. Every single one of its limbs was translucent and crystalline, reminiscent of jade. While it was impossible to tell how tough it was, the fact that it was able to wield the prowess to slay a Saint 9-dan pinnacle cultivator with just a light flick of its wrist showed just how powerful it was.
"This is … the skeleton of a dragon?"
Upon seeing the other party's true appearance, Zhang Xuan was shocked.
Due to the fact that he had tamed the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, he had a deep understanding of the skeletal structure of lifeforms like the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast. If he was not mistaken, this was definitely the skeleton of a dragon.
Even if it was not a pure-blooded Dragon Race bloodline, the density of its bloodline would still be many times greater than that of the Azure Dragon Beast.
"You actually have the ability to control time? No, you're relying on a bloodline … Who are you? Which Saint's descendant? "
When the skeleton saw that he had dodged the water droplets, it revealed a trace of surprise. A deafening roar resounded.
"I am Zhang Xuan!"
Seeing that the other party wasn't attacking, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. He bowed and cupped his fist. At the same time, he carefully looked at the big guy in front of him.
The skeleton before Zhang Xuan was completely black in color. The eyes where the dragon head spoke were two sockets, and they emanated a faint green light. If not for the fact that it was speaking, it would have been hard to imagine that it was alive and possessed its own consciousness.
"Zhang? Not a descendant of Kong Shi? "
The skeletal dragon was puzzled.
"No!" Zhang Xuan shook his head.
After the Hundred Schools of Thought left, the Zhang family began to rise. The ancestors of the Zhang family indeed did not accept Kong Shi's inheritance.
"He isn't a descendant of Kong Shi, but he has comprehended the Time Laws that only Kong Shi can use. It seems that there are quite a few geniuses among his descendants!"
The skeletal dragon nodded. "To be able to withstand my pressure and evade my water droplets, you do possess some strength. However, just that alone won't do you any good. If you want to obtain my acknowledgement, you must defeat me! "
"Get your acknowledgment?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
"That's right. This passageway is the most fortuitous of the ninety-nine passageways, but at the same time, it's also the most dangerous. If you can obtain my acknowledgement, you'll be able to take me away. If you can't, you'll be killed by me!" the skeletal dragon said impassively.
"You'll be able to take you away?" Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
The skeletal dragon was able to kill a Saint 9-dan pinnacle expert with just a single droplet of its water droplets. It was likely that it was even stronger than Yang shi. If he could take it away, he would be able to raise his overall strength!
"That's right. However, in order to obtain my acknowledgement, one must possess strength that surpasses mine. Back then, Sage Ran Qiu used his strength to subdue me, and that was the reason why I chose to hibernate here for several dozen millenniums to await my successor!"
The skeletal dragon nodded.
"Sage Ran Qiu … You are Ancient Sage Ran Qiu's weapon? Could it be … his Dragonbone Divine Spear? "
Zhang Xuan suddenly thought of something, and his body jolted in astonishment.
He had read many books on Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, so he knew a little about the latter's life. With the Dragonbone Divine Spear, Ancient Sage Ran Qiu had slaughtered his way through the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. Even Kong Shi was full of praises for it.
Could it be that the skeletal dragon before him was that Dragonbone Divine Spear?
If that was the case, this passageway was indeed extremely important.
"That's right!" The skeletal dragon nodded. "However, my strength has been sealed by Sage Ran Qiu, so I'm only able to wield the strength of a Great Sage. If you can defeat me, you'll be able to take me away. If you can't … I'm sorry, but no matter who you are, no matter what your background is, you'll be pierced by my spear! You'll be reduced to a corpse. "
"You have a point, but …" Zhang Xuan raised his head and smiled earnestly. "Look, I am only a Saint 9-dan pinnacle cultivator at the moment. Even if you are only able to wield the strength of a Great Sage, it's unlikely that you will be able to defeat me. Can you suppress your cultivation to my level before we battle?"
"Suppress my cultivation?" the skeletal dragon replied in displeasure.
"That's right. You have been here for quite some time now, and you want to go out and show your prowess, right? I'm the only one who has chosen this passageway. If no one else comes here in the future, doesn't that mean that they'll never be able to leave? Isn't that a little too tragic for a top-notch artifact like you? "
Zhang Xuan explained. "In any case, it's just a duel. As long as you suppress your cultivation to my level, it'll still be considered as a battle. We're both at the same cultivation realm, so it won't be considered as bullying the weak …"
The skeletal dragon hesitated.
"It's decided then. You are Sage Ran Qiu's weapon, so even if you suppress your cultivation, your fighting prowess will still be at the very top of your cultivation realm. It can't be that … you think that you won't be a match for me just because you suppress your cultivation to Saint 9-dan pinnacle?"
Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully. "Could it be that … even an Ancient Sage artifact is afraid of losing?"
"Humph! I won't lose even if I suppress my cultivation!"
Provoked by Zhang Xuan's provocation, the skeletal dragon harrumphed coldly. "Very well, I'll suppress my cultivation to Saint 9-dan pinnacle now!"
Hong long!
Right after those words were spoken, the powerful aura emanating from the skeletal dragon began to recede. In the blink of an eye, it was reduced to the same level as the skeletal dragon, Saint 9-dan pinnacle.
"Let's begin then."
After suppressing its cultivation, the Skeletal Dragon calmly prepared itself to face the young man before it, but all of a sudden, its vision blurred. Unbeknownst to it, the young man standing not too far away had already appeared right before it, and he had already sent a fist right toward its head.
"You …"
Not expecting the other party to be so swift and disregard the rules of the battle, the skeletal dragon was infuriated. It flung its tail, intending to send the other party flying, but in the next instant, it felt as if the surrounding space had suddenly been sealed. It felt as if its entire body had been frozen in the middle of a river, rendering it unable to move at all.
"Ancient Sage Qiu Wu's Spatial Seal?"
The skeletal dragon's body stiffened in shock. It was still trying to figure out what it should do when it suddenly felt a sharp pain in its head. The other party's fist had already landed on it.
Peng peng peng peng!
Fist, foot … In the blink of an eye, the skeletal dragon felt excruciating pain all over its body. The young man's strength was relentless, as if the Yellow River was overflowing.
Under the relentless attacks, not only had its bones been damaged, even its soul had been battered, threatening to dissipate at any moment.
"How can he be so powerful?"
The skeletal dragon was frenzied.
(Gout. I went to the hospital today, and the diagnosis was that my cervical vertebrae had become too straight, resulting in bone hyperplasia. I thought that I had already recovered from my cervical vertebrae, but who could have thought that not only did my cervical vertebrae fail to recover, it even started to hyperplasia … Please console me.)
