The night was dark and the sky was filled with stars.
Lu Ye left Grand Sky City and flew in a certain direction. Only after flying for three hundred miles did he find a desolate place to land.
Since the Sect Master had brought the Dragon Emperor over, Lu Ye naturally wanted to familiarize himself with its power.
Although the Dragon Emperor was brought out from the Soaring Dragon Realm by Lu Ye, it was not native to the Soaring Dragon Realm. As for its specific origin, Lu Ye was not very clear.
His Honoured Master said that its quality was extremely high, beyond the scope of what the cultivators of the Nine States could repair. Judging from this, the Dragon Emperor's quality was probably above the Spirit Artifact Grade.
However, this thing was not the same as a normal Spirit Artifact. With Lu Ye's cultivation, he would not be able to activate a normal treasure above the Spirit Artifact Grade.
However, in the Soaring Dragon Realm, Lu Ye had activated the power of the Dragon Emperor once. Supported by the Dragon Ridge Saber, with one slash, the altar that the Blood Race had painstakingly built shattered and the Blood River collapsed. The power of that slash had even cut into the Great Ultimate.
Of course, the price he had to pay was extremely high. With just one slash, Lu Ye was like a lamp that had run out of oil.
The power of that slash was not purely from Lu Ye's own body.
At that time, he had the Mandate of Heaven, and the entire Soaring Dragon Realm was his backing. That slash was indeed from him, but it was also the power of the entire Soaring Dragon Realm. With the help of the Dragon Emperor's counterattack, it could be so powerful.
If it were any other occasion, even if Lu Ye was now a Third-Order True Lake Realm cultivator, he would not be able to slash out such an earth-shattering slash.
It could be said that that slash was the strongest Lu Ye had slashed out so far.
He suspected that even if he reached the Divine Sea Realm, he might not be able to slash out such a slash again with his own strength.
There was no need to talk about what happened after that.
He was like a lamp that had run out of oil and did not have long to live. With the help of the broken Source of the Soaring Dragon Realm, he was able to come back from the dead and even change his own cultivation aptitude. He even had the ability to reflect the Soaring Dragon Realm's Source.
Lu Ye could be said to be looking forward to the Dragon Emperor.
However, his Honoured Master could only perform a simple repair on the Dragon Emperor. No one knew how much power the Dragon Emperor could exert now.
Therefore, he wanted to try it himself.
This place was desolate and quiet at this time of the night, so it was a good time to try it.
Lu Ye took out the Dragon Emperor from his storage bag.
It was a ball the size of a baby's head. It was scarlet in color, and there were scale-like patterns on the surface of the ball. Those should be real dragon scales …
Lu Ye wasn't in a hurry to activate its power. Instead, he first gulped down a handful of Spirit Pills and a drop of Soul Cleansing Water. He was fully prepared.
With the previous example, Lu Ye knew what kind of price he had to pay to use the Dragon Emperor. Although the Dragon Emperor might not be able to display the power she had back then and the price he had to pay would not be as high as before, he still had to be careful.
He took a deep breath and poured his spiritual power into the ball in his hand. Then, he used his own spiritual power to guide it.
With a series of cracking sounds, the ball suddenly collapsed, turning into countless tiny scale fragments. Under the guidance of Lu Ye's Qi, these tiny scale fragments climbed onto his body as if they had a mind of their own.
A series of crackling sounds came from the secluded area as tiny scale fragments wrapped around Lu Ye. In the blink of an eye, a scarlet figure appeared where Lu Ye had been.
The scarlet figure was tall, at least ten metres in height, with a slender body and smooth curves, as if it had been created by the Heavens themselves.
A soft groan came from the scarlet figure, causing Lu Ye to frown inside the Dragon Emperor.
Just like last time, the moment the Dragon Emperor was put on, it brought him an extremely intense pain.
It was not an illusion, but a real stabbing pain.
The entire Dragon Emperor seemed to have produced countless tiny spikes that were almost visible to the naked eye and pierced into Lu Ye's body. Even with Lu Ye's current physique, it was difficult for him to resist.
When Lu Ye used the Dragon Emperor that day, he was only a Sixth Order Cloud River Realm cultivator, so he didn't feel it too deeply. Now that he was a Third Order True Lake Realm cultivator and had developed his Divine Sense, he immediately noticed some clues.
What pierced into his body were not the tiny spikes he had imagined. In fact, these things weren't even real. As for what they were, Lu Ye didn't know.
Moreover, this stabbing pain didn't only affect his physical body, but even his soul was trembling slightly.
The Soul Cleansing Water played a role in alleviating the pain Lu Ye's Soul felt. Lu Ye could clearly feel that the Dragon Emperor was hungrily devouring everything it could from his body.
Spiritual Energy, physical strength, and even Spiritual Energy …
With this kind of devouring, Lu Ye's foundation was constantly being drained away.
However, what made Lu Ye feel slightly relieved was that this devouring process was much gentler than the last time.
The last time Lu Ye used the Dragon Emperor, he couldn't control the loss of his foundation at all. It was terrifying. This was the fundamental reason why Lu Ye's slash had caused him to run out of oil. Although the power of that slash was supported by the Mandate of Heaven and the Soaring Dragon Realm, Lu Ye, who had used the Dragon Emperor, had to pay a huge price.
Although the rate at which his foundation was draining this time was not slow, it was still within an acceptable range. As such, as long as he removed the Dragon Emperor, Lu Ye's foundation would not be affected.
Lu Ye's state of mind was raised, and the entire world became very different. Colorful lights flowed in his vision. Those were the colors of the world's spirit qi. Usually, Lu Ye would only be able to see these colors when he activated the Spiritual Runes of Insight to strengthen his eyes.
Everything around him seemed to have slowed down a lot.
Hu Po and Yiyi were watching from a short distance away. Both of them were in awe. In the spirit and tiger's field of vision, the Dragon Emperor's overall appearance did not change much. However, the current Dragon Emperor had many more complicated patterns than before. The crisscrossing patterns extended from her cheeks to her neck, chest, hands, feet, and even her back …
It was like an extremely wild totem.
This was clearly Madam Yun's handiwork. She had inscribed some Spirit Inscriptions on the surface of the Dragon Emperor.
The tall scarlet body stood upright. Two spots of dark red light bloomed in its eye sockets. Complemented by the wild totem, it gave off an extremely domineering and violent feeling.
It was as if it wanted to tear apart everything in the world!
Lu Ye silently sensed the current Dragon Emperor.
Compared to before, the Dragon Emperor's absorption of his body was undoubtedly much weaker. This was a good thing. However, as such, the power he could unleash would probably be affected.
He then took out the Dragon Ridge Sabre from his storage bag.
The sixteen feet long sabre seemed to be made of fresh blood. The body of the sabre was not smooth. Every inch of the sabre had a node that bulged slightly like bamboo joints. A blood-red light flowed on the sabre's body, making it seem as if the sabre was breathing on its own.
With the sabre in hand, an even more violent aura spread out.
Even though he knew that Lu Ye would not have any ill intentions towards him, Hu Po could not help but tremble. Yiyi even felt a chill all over her body.
The sabre danced. The thirty feet tall figure supported the sixteen feet long sabre. Within thirty feet, everyone was a match for an entire nation!
The sabre's afterimages were numerous. Hu Po and Yiyi had already run a few hundred feet away. From afar, they could see the towering figure wielding the sabre. As the figure moved, the two spots of light in its eye sockets dragged out two dark red ribbons of light in the dark night.
Only after an incense stick's worth of time did Lu Ye suddenly sheath his sabre and stand upright. The area within a thousand feet radius was a complete mess.
Amidst the crackling sounds, the Dragon Emperor was dismantled and turned back into a round ball the size of a baby's head. Lu Ye's face was slightly pale. His entire body was drenched in sweat.
In just a short incense stick's time, Lu Ye had almost exhausted all of his energy. It was clear that the Dragon Emperor had expended a lot of energy.
Even though its power had been greatly reduced and its energy consumption had decreased, it was still not something that could be maintained for a long time.
However, no matter what, he had gained an additional treasure that could allow him to fight with his life on the line.
After the experiment just now, Lu Ye had a rough idea of how the Dragon Emperor had improved him. However, this item could not be easily shown to others. It could only be used when he was in a desperate situation.
All in all, Lu Ye was very satisfied with the current Dragon Emperor. In fact, he was even more satisfied than before.
The previous Dragon Emperor was extremely powerful, but the aftereffects were also very strong. It was not suitable for him now.
As long as the current Dragon Emperor used his combined strength, there would be no aftereffects. When Master repaired this item, he had obviously spent a lot of effort. He called out to Yiyi and Hu Po and led them towards Vast Sky City. When they returned to the Sect Master's small courtyard, they found a room and went in to rest.
The next day, Lu Ye, who had just recovered, received a message from Gan Wudang asking him to come to the Law Department immediately.
Lu Ye did not know what Gan Wudang wanted, but now that he was working under Gan Wudang, he had to follow Gan Wudang's orders.
After leaving the courtyard, he went straight to the Law Department's main hall. Soon, he saw Gan Wudang.
"Lord."
"Mm." Gan Wudang nodded slightly and gestured with his hand. "Sit!" Lu Ye sat on the chair opposite him. There was a table between them.
"Lord, why did you summon me?"
"It's like this …" Gan Wudang looked troubled, as if he had encountered some difficulty. "Didn't I tell you to join Team A3?"
"Deceiving Kangxi"
"Is there a change in the situation?" Lu Ye asked.
"Yes, there are some changes." Gan Wudang nodded. "Team A3 is full. As you know, teams in the Law Enforcement Hall usually have six people in a team. The main reason is that it is convenient to use the Six Origin Spirit Restricting Lock. Also, six people in a team can help each other. If there are too few people, it will be difficult to carry out the mission. If there are too many people, it will be a waste of manpower. Therefore, you probably won't be able to join Team A3."
"If that's the case, I can join another team."
Lu Ye did not have any special requirements. If he did not join Team A3, he could join another team. Now that he was a member of the Law Department, he naturally had to listen to the orders of his superiors. He could not afford to be picky, and he did not have this problem.
"Hmm … The other teams are not lacking in manpower." Gan Wudang raised his hand and pressed between his eyebrows.
Lu Ye's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean, Lord? Just say it. "
If Gan Wudang did not want him to join the Law Department because of some unspeakable pressure, Lu Ye did not care. Now that the Hierarch was in Grand Sky City, he had a good place to go.
At worst, he would just go to a small village. It was not a bad thing.
