Chapter 221: 185: Spread My Wings into the Azure Sky, My Name Engraved in the Heavens
His eyes emptied, no longer struggling. Just as Su Heng was about to give up, Xu Hanlin’s pained and weak voice came through, "We all deserve to go to hell."
"Really?" Su Heng’s lips curled into a smile, "Look at you now. How do you plan to kill me? I could crush you into a pulp with just a thought. What can you possibly do in this state?"
The next moment, the answer was revealed —
The critically injured Xu Hanlin once again employed the Taotie Technique, drawing strength from Su Heng.
Su Heng raised an eyebrow but chose not to stop him. He even actively injected his own strength into Xu Hanlin’s body, genuinely curious to see what kind of a trump card Xu Hanlin could still play at this point.
Whoosh!
Xu Hanlin’s long hair flew about as he looked up at the sky.
His jaw opened wide like a snake, his throat undulating as he expelled a terrifying light sphere condensed with all his life force and the strength from Su Heng. In the next instant, the light sphere exploded. Its target was not Su Heng, but it shot straight into the sky toward the hovering phantom of a dominating dragon.
First, a straight thin line, then a booming loud blast.
A massive fireburst erupted on the dragon, which compared to the latter’s mountainous body seemed dim and minuscule, but it was enough to catch its attention.In the heavens, the phantom body of the dominating dragon suddenly came to life. A dragon roar echoed through the ages. Steel-like scales rubbed against each other, their sound vast as the tide. Lightning fell like waterfalls, and thunder boomed. A majestic dragon’s head slowly descended from the heavens, its dark golden eyes like two dim suns, slowly looking towards Su Heng —
In that moment, Su Heng felt as if the entire world had frozen.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
His body trembled uncontrollably, not out of fear but out of excitement, eagerness. He had always wanted to thoroughly study the divine revelations of the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm, wanting to discover where the marks left by the ancients were.
And now—
Xu Hanlin’s attempt had unveiled this mystery for Su Heng.
Splat!
He flexed his fingers with force.
Xu Hanlin’s body instantly turned into minced meat, disappearing completely.
"If you wish to surpass the ancients and reach the pinnacle, you cannot merely mimic; you must stand on the shoulders of predecessors and carve out your own path." ṝ
"Heavenly changes are insufficient as law, ancestors insufficient as fear!"
"So that’s how it is! That’s how it is!" Su Heng laughed loudly, reverberating through the heavens, "So, this is the true secret of Cloud Heaven."
Until now, Su Heng had invested considerable effort and resources in practicing and perfecting the Domineering Dragon Thirteen Forms Secret Technique. This technique had the most profound impact on him, and as the object of imitation, the dominating dragon was indeed formidable, mythical among the true dragons.
But!
If wants to reach the absolute peak, to the end of the martial path.
Merely mimicking is not enough, one must innovate on the basis of imitation and step out onto one’s own path. And the first step on this path is to break through the phantom of the dominating dragon in front, break the barrier, and forge a clear universe of one’s own!
"With wings spread, I soar into the azure skies, etching my name in the heavens of immortality!"
"Come then, battle!" Su Heng roared, his fighting spirit blazing fiercely within him.
On the attribute panel only he could see, as the roar sounded, the just-repaired "True Dominating Dragon" blurred, transforming into the "True Dominating Warrior."
Boom!
Su Heng stomped heavily.
Beneath his feet, Cloud Heaven cracked outward, the cracks spreading and finally exploding with a loud bang.
It was like the apocalypse had arrived, with countless rocks falling from the sky. And as Su Heng’s aura unfolded completely, his strength unleashed, turning into a hurricane. Rocks and dust were caught within it, creating a tremendously powerful sandstorm that appeared in the fearful eyes of all cultivators.
In the pitch-black sky, Su Heng, based on the "True Dominating Warrior," reactivated Dragon Blood, entering the Deep Blood Explosion state, stacking all the enhancements on his strength and destructiveness.
As the Dragon Blood deeply unleashed, a terrifying golden light emitted from Su Heng.
The sky seemed to gain an additional golden sun, its light covering everything in its range, everything first froze then exploded violently. Mountains shook, the ground collapsed. In midair, a series of astonishing explosions occurred, forming a bright white cloud ring around Su Heng.
Amidst the clouds, Su Heng spread his wings wide and vigorously flapped them.
In the midst of the explosive sound of tearing air,
Su Heng’s tall, jet-black body shot upward like a meteor reversing its course towards the vault of heaven.
As his momentum reached an unprecedented peak, the most fierce and terrifying punch of his life violently struck the descending phantom of the True Dominating Dragon above him.
Boom!!!!
The exaggerated punch pierced through the heavens, the air and clouds fiercely rubbing together to create a storm of blue and purple lightning. Amid the dull roar, the storm violently dispersed, leaving a colossal hole in the dark clouds, through which the crystal-clear blue sky could bring one to tears.
...
Outside the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm,
Li Lingxiu, supporting her unconscious sister Li Lingsu, stumbled out from the dark fog. Approaching them on the mountain ahead was an elderly man with a stately appearance, white hair, and a white beard. This elder, named Li Wangchuan, was a Supreme Elder of the Li Family in Jiangzhou.
Inside the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm, the siblings Li Lingxiu had encountered the Great Black Secret King.
Li Lingsu immediately used a precious artifact to notify the family elders. Li Wangchuan swiftly arrived from nearby Liuzhou, culminating in the scene unfolding at the moment.
"Your condition now is still good," Li Wangchuan stepped forward, slightly furrowing his brows.
"My sister is injured, but I’m okay," Li Lingxiu’s arm was bent and twisted, oozing blood. Accidentally touching the wound, he grimaced in pain.
"That’s good to hear," Li Wangchuan first checked Li Lingsu’s physical state and fed her a medicinal pill. He gently laid the unconscious Li Lingsu on the soft grass, then casually nodded to Li Lingxiu nearby.
Li Lingxiu looked embarrassed.
"The Great Black Secret King," Li Wangchuan’s expression turned somber, his voice cold, "dares to infiltrate our Great Zhou Dynasty’s territory, thinking there is nobody in Great Zhou!? Since he has come, he shouldn’t dream of leaving alive!"
"The real target of the Great Black Secret King wasn’t my sister and me," Li Lingxiu remembered the serious matter, his expression turning solemn, he hastily said, "This person is still in Cloud Heaven, has shown me kindness, and I hope the Supreme Elder can go and save him. If we let the enemy’s scheme succeed, it wouldn’t reflect well on you, elderly sir."
"Leaving the family for over a decade, and you’ve learned this sort of stuff," Li Wangchuan scoffed upon hearing the words, "At such a young age, you still try to provoke me!?"
"Hehe..." Li Lingxiu smiled embarrassingly.
He then briefly explained his recent experiences with Su Heng, including the completion of the Domineering Dragon Secret Method.
After hearing this, Li Wangchuan looked much more serious.
"Rushing into Cloud Heaven, one inevitably encounters danger," Li Wangchuan sighed, "However, since you have put it this way, indeed, I can’t just stand by and watch someone die."
"Thanks, Supreme Elder!" Li Lingxiu, upon hearing this, was instantly overjoyed.
"Take good care of your sister," Li Wangchuan waved his sleeve, about to move.
However
The moment he stepped forward, he suddenly stopped.
Boom!
The sky thundered.
At first, a burst of brilliant golden light appeared, followed by endless dark clouds rolling in, a terrifying black sandstorm blotting out the sun and enveloping everything. Li Wangchuan’s face changed drastically, his eyes covered in a divine light, as he looked up into the distance.
He was suddenly able to see in the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm an ancient and formidable phantom of the Dominating Dragon, floating like a majestic mountain in the air.
"What is happening in the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm, why such turmoil!?"
Before Li Wangchuan could understand,
Another loud noise followed. In the stunned expressions of both Li Wangchuan and Li Lingxiu, the gigantic mountain-like phantom of the Dominating Dragon violently shattered, vanishing without a trace.
Amidst the widespread thunderstorm, a huge phantom of a winged, scale-armored giant roared toward the sky. The roar, like thunder, rolled in like tides, the terrifying domineering spirit as if piercing through time and space, resonating in everyone’s chest, leaving an indelible horror that was hard to forget for a long time
Li Wangchuan and Li Lingxiu exchanged glances, both seeing in each other’s faces that lingering shock.
