Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, a glint flashed in Cang Wu's eyes. Yi Yun seemed to have predicted everything.
"Yi Yun, don't tell me that the outcome of me entering the Ascending Dragon Cauldron was calculated by you!?"
Yi Yun smiled faintly. He had indeed predicted that Cang Wu would follow him. He had deliberately opened the cauldron's lid to attract Cang Wu's attention. Following that, he quickly sealed the cauldron, making Cang Wu believe that he was afraid.
With time being of the essence, Cang Wu had no time to think carefully. And as a warrior, most people would take a gamble in the face of danger and opportunities, much less someone as ambitious as Cang Wu. If not, there was no point in pursuing the martial path.
"Interesting!" Cang Wu sized up Yi Yun. "Your cultivation level seems to have reached the eighth-storey Dao Palace realm? If your cultivation level rises so quickly, your laws will not be able to keep up and your foundation will be unstable. It will only do you more harm than good. Don't tell me you naively believe that you can kill me? "
"I'll know once I try. My cultivation level has just increased by leaps and bounds. My body is overflowing with energy. I need an opponent to hone my strength. I've been picking and choosing, and I've chosen you!"
As Yi Yun spoke, he gently flexed his wrist. On the back of his right hand, golden runes flashed. They looked like golden tattoos.
"I say, the person who's about to die …"
Yi Yun looked at Arched Brows. Arched Brows was still immersed in immense fear. Cang Wu's disregard for him had chilled his heart. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he was slowly realizing that Cang Wu would really kill him!
He never expected that his act of peeing beside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron to play to the gallery would cost him his life.
Arched Brows panicked when he heard Yi Yun's shout. He ignored the fact that Yi Yun had called him a 'person who's about to die.'
"What … What are you doing?"
Yi Yun only smiled faintly. Suddenly, his figure shot out like a ghost. His right hand shimmered with a golden beam as he pressed down on Arched Brows!
Yi Yun's hand pressed down like a mountain. Arched Brows felt a jolt as he rapidly retreated. At the same time, he conjured his protective Yuan Qi and a sword appeared in his hand. He used all his strength to withstand Yi Yun's strike.
Even though he knew it was utterly inadequate, he refused to give up his deathbed struggle.
"Martial Uncle Cang Wu, save me!"
Arched Brows shouted in despair, but Yi Yun's attack had already arrived.
Peng!
With a loud explosion, Arched Brows' protective Yuan Qi was penetrated like thin paper by Yi Yun. Yi Yun then grabbed Arched Brows' arm.
Kacha!
With the crisp sound of bones fracturing, Arched Eyebrows let out a tragic cry. His arm had been crushed by Yi Yun. Yi Yun kicked Arched Eyebrows in the chest and with a flick of his right hand, Arched Eyebrows' sword landed in Yi Yun's hand.
"Lend me your sword!"
Yi Yun's Mirage Snow had been taken away by Myriad God Patriarch. Now, he did not have a weapon he could use. The reason why he attacked Arched Brows first was for the sword in his hand.
At this moment, Arched Brows had been sent flying by Yi Yun's kick. His sternum had completely collapsed, and it was unknown how many of his ribs had been broken. His lungs, which had already been shattered, were pierced by bone fragments!
Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, Arched Eyebrows spewed out a mouthful of blood. He was on the brink of tears. If Yi Yun wanted his sword, he could have just asked. He would not have dared to refuse. But Yi Yun had attacked without a word, reducing him to a half-dead state!
Although he had the sword in hand, Arched Eyebrows had left a mental mark on it. Yi Yun could not immediately use it.
And at that moment, Cang Wu had silently appeared behind Yi Yun. A strange-looking weapon appeared in his hand. It resembled a saber and a sword at the same time. The weapon was meandering, with a blade on one side and a sawtooth on the other. The weapon's blade was black and lusterless, as though it could devour light. It stabbed straight at Yi Yun's back!
"Weng!"
The blade vibrated, and as the weapon approached, countless gray ripples appeared in space. The ripples resonated with the sawtooth on the weapon, as though the void was being sliced apart!
"Oh? This is? "
Upon seeing the gray ripples, Yi Yun's pupils constricted slightly. He could sense a terrifying lethality from the gray ripples.
Yi Yun retreated rapidly, but the blade still managed to graze his protective Yuan Qi.
Ka-cha!
A huge hole was torn open in Yi Yun's protective Yuan Qi. A powerful tearing force tore through Yi Yun's shattered protective Yuan Qi and invaded his body. It went straight into his meridians and wreaked havoc!
The force tore at Yi Yun's body like countless leeches, as though it was about to rip his body apart.
Yi Yun's expression changed. Such a move was truly strange.
"Hehe, it doesn't feel good, does it!?"
Cang Wu licked his lips. He had a seductive look to begin with, but after he took out the black blade, he no longer had the dignity of the eldest disciple of the sect master. He looked even more sinister and strange.
His long hair was disheveled, and together with the strange-looking weapon, it made him look like an evil demon.
"You are really not bad. This weapon of mine is named Ghost Slash. If an ordinary person were to be struck by my slash, even a tiny bit of it would instantly shatter them! Impressive. You are only at the eighth-storey Dao Palace realm. Once you break through to the Supremacy realm, even I will not be your match. Your future is limitless, but unfortunately, you are overly arrogant. You actually dared to plot against me. You overestimate yourself. "
Cang Wu caressed the sawtooth on Ghost Slash as he spoke slowly.
"Slicing … Strangulation …"
Yi Yun sensed the raging gray energy in his body. It was a nomological insight Cang Wu had gained. It was infused into his weapon, and any opponent he fought would have the nomological energy enter their body and tear them apart if they were scratched.
The nomological energy Cang Wu cultivated in was extremely rare. In addition, he was a late-stage Supremacy. Just the support of his cultivation level made his Slicing laws extremely powerful.
If Yi Yun had not consumed the Dragon Emperor Relic, stimulating his vital potential and strengthening his body by a thousand times, he probably would not have been able to withstand the Slicing laws.
"That's all. Although your laws are strange, they are not Great Dao of Supremacy. With that, becoming an ordinary Divine Lord is your limit. It's impossible for you to even fuse with a Divine Lord Royal Seal. It's no wonder you are desperate to obtain the opportunities inside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. You have probably heard Patriarch mention the 'Dragon Emperor Technique,' right? Do you want to obtain that cultivation technique?"
Yi Yun said sarcastically. He had the intention to say those words. He did not want to give up any opportunity to strike at Cang Wu's martial heart when he fought him. Warriors who practiced martial arts to reach the level of a Supremacy had to have their own opportunities. But even so, the difference between good and bad opportunities was huge.
Yi Yun felt that his cultivation technique was bad, but in fact, his remnant pages of the 'Ten Thousand Fey Divine Canon' were top cultivation techniques that many people coveted.
"What insolence!"
Cang Wu bellowed angrily. However, just as he opened his mouth, his voice froze. He could clearly sense that the gray nomological powers in Yi Yun's body were rapidly being destroyed.
Yi Yun's body was like a cauldron that had an endless supply of energy. As his bloodline circulated, the nomological powers were constantly being ground down until they finally vanished.
This left Cang Wu's heart palpitating. Yi Yun's bloodline actually had such a characteristic?
"You are indeed extraordinary! From the looks of it, your flesh and blood are treasures to begin with. It's no wonder Patriarch wants to refine you into medicine. Today, I'll slay you and refine your bloodline into a treasure medicine! "
Cang Wu bellowed as black ripples emanated from his body. Ghost Slash cleaved down once again.
Yi Yun did not panic. He casually swiped the sword in his hand and with a light 'puff,' the half-dead Arched Brows behind Yi Yun let out a tragic cry. The spiritual mark he had left on the sword had been wiped away by Yi Yun.
"Whew!"
The sword slashed out like a divine dragon swinging its tail.
Yi Yun's strike did not use any laws, but he had stimulated his vital potential and injected his powerful physical strength into it!
"Dang!"
With a metallic clang, a large number of gray ripples were shattered by Yi Yun's strike in the void!
However, Yi Yun also felt an immense rebounding force. It left his lifeblood in chaos.
"It's too light!"
Yi Yun frowned. The sword was too light. After cultivating in the 'Dragon Emperor Technique,' Yi Yun's physical strength had increased rapidly without him realizing it. It made him wish for a heavier weapon.
"Hu! Hu!
Hu! "The gray ripples gathered and surrounded Yi Yun's body.
"Ha!"
Yi Yun roared as he stimulated his Dragon Emperor bloodline. The Dragon Emperor bloodline caused golden patterns to form on the surface of Yi Yun's skin. These patterns resembled a golden carp.
"Nine Stances of the Ascending Dragon — Golden Carp!"
Other than the Dragon Emperor, who was born from the Chaos at the beginning of the world, all other dragons were acquired.
The dragon had nine sons, but none of them resembled a dragon!
The descendants of the Dragon Emperor were born from the union of the Dragon Emperor and other living beings. Although they had dragon blood flowing in their veins, their forms were far from that of a dragon.
To finally transform into a dragon, one needed to experience tribulations and opportunities before finally stimulating the Dragon Emperor bloodline. This was akin to how cultivators of the 'Dragon Emperor Technique' would eventually refine a dragon in their bodies!
A carp leaping through the dragon's gate, soaring into the sky!
A flying serpent spewed mist, transforming into a dragon in a hundred million years!
Be it the carp's transformation into a dragon by leaping through the dragon's gate, or the flying serpent's hundred-million-year absorption of Heaven and Earth spiritual energies to transcend the tribulations to become a dragon, they were both extremely difficult processes.
Furthermore, as the Dragon Emperor's descendants increased in number, the bloodline would become further apart. The Dragon Emperor's blood would slumber even deeper, making it even harder to transform into a dragon.
However, Yi Yun's transformation into a dragon was even more difficult!
This was because the density of his bloodline was far inferior to that of a dragon's son. He needed to use divine items to improve his bloodline. This was the process of cultivating the 'Dragon Emperor Technique.'
The Nine Stances of the Ascending Dragon used one's bloodline to simulate a dragon's son, first stimulating the dragon's son's powers.
Jin Lin, also known as the Dragon Carp, was one of the dragon's sons.
Jin Lin was no ordinary creature. He would transform into a dragon the moment he encountered a storm!
The Nine Stances of the Ascending Dragon that Yi Yun was using the Dragon Emperor bloodline in him to simulate Jin Lin's powers.
This was also the only stance that Yi Yun had learned among the Nine Stances of the Ascending Dragon.
Nine Stances of the Ascending Dragon — Jin Lin!
