Roar!
From deep within Dragon Fall Ravine came the resounding united cry of a dragon and elephant, like thunder rolling across the heavens and stirring the spiritual energy.
Some disciples cultivating within Dragon Fall Ravine were instantly startled by the roar.
Their curious gazes all turned toward the depths of Dragon Fall Ravine, where a powerful fluctuation seemed to be slowly spreading outward...
This disturbance had been caused by Lu Changsheng cultivating the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art.
After three days of arduous cultivation, he had finally mastered the Dragon Elephant Golden Body!
Buzz—
At that moment, atop a massive boulder, Lu Changsheng's entire body shone brilliantly, suffused with strands of golden radiance. His flesh had turned golden, as though it had been cast from pure gold. Upon his chest, the Dragon Elephant Spirit roamed, filling his entire being with an overbearing aura.
Clearly, the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Lu Changsheng had cultivated had already taken form!
Having condensed the Dragon Elephant Spirit and forged the Golden Body, Lu Changsheng felt that his physical body had risen by more than a single level. Within his flesh surged an incomparably powerful force.
Even he was secretly shocked by this power. The Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art truly deserved to be called a Black-tier Martial Art—its might had not disappointed him!
"Although I am only at the eighth level of the Core Condensation Realm, with the might of the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art, even against a Divine Palace Realm expert, I should absolutely possess the strength to fight!"
Lu Changsheng clenched his fists tightly.
However, although Lu Changsheng had successfully cultivated the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art, he had not yet reached the realm of great perfection.
That was because the highest realm of the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art was the Power of Nine Dragons and Nine Elephants!
In other words, if the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art were fully unleashed, it could erupt with strength comparable to nine dragons and nine elephants.
At present, however, Lu Changsheng had only attained the power of one dragon and one elephant.
Yet even so, the might of one dragon and one elephant was still terrifying.
Of course, reaching great perfection in the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art would not be easy. Lu Changsheng also understood that attaining perfection was not something that could be achieved overnight.
"Not long ago, I offended the Flame Alliance again. Those bastards will definitely come looking for trouble. But I am not made of clay either. If they come looking for trouble, I will make them pay a heavy price!"
A glint of cold light flashed through Lu Changsheng's eyes.
He had a strong feeling that the Flame Alliance would soon come looking for trouble.
However, he had now cultivated the Dragon Elephant Golden Body Art and possessed the trump card of a Black-tier Martial Art. Even against a Divine Palace Realm expert, he felt not the slightest fear, so there was no need to fear the Flame Alliance coming after him.
With that thought, Lu Changsheng quickly withdrew from his cultivation state. His Golden Body gradually faded away, while the Dragon Elephant Spirit on his chest transformed into a pattern.
Next, Lu Changsheng rose and prepared to leave Dragon Fall Ravine. Yet just as he was about to depart, he saw many Miscellaneous Servant Disciples suddenly discussing something in a panic.
"I heard that the Flame Alliance has already blocked the exit of Dragon Fall Ravine!"
"What happened? Why is the Flame Alliance making such a huge fuss?"
"You don't know? Apparently, a disciple named Lu Changsheng offended the Flame Alliance. The Flame Alliance has come to settle the score!"
"Lu Changsheng? That guy is really unlucky. He actually provoked the Flame Alliance. Liu Yan is an expert on the Outer Disciples Ranking—this guy is dead for sure this time..."
Countless disciples discussed it fervently.
"So they've come at last..."
Hearing these discussions, Lu Changsheng could not help frowning. Although he had anticipated that the Flame Alliance would come looking for trouble, he had not expected them to arrive so quickly.
However, there was not the slightest trace of panic on Lu Changsheng's face. If the Flame Alliance wanted to cause him trouble, he would certainly make them pay the price!
Dragon Fall Ravine, at the exit.
At that moment, a large number of disciples had been stopped at the mouth of the valley and were forbidden from leaving Dragon Fall Ravine. Before the valley entrance stood several dozen figures, all dressed in red robes with cold, sinister expressions. These disciples were naturally members of the Flame Alliance.
"Big Brother, why hasn't that brat come out yet? Could he have heard that we were here and gotten so scared that he hid away and dared not come out?"
A Flame Alliance disciple said.
"Hehe, what the hell is that brat? After hearing of our Alliance Leader's great reputation, how could he still dare to show himself!"
"Of course. Our Alliance Leader is a genius ranked among the top fifty on the Outer Disciples Ranking. That brat is merely a piece of trash who has just become an Outer Disciple. How could he possibly be mentioned in the same breath as our Alliance Leader?"
The other disciples chimed in.
At that moment, Liu Yan stood atop a huge boulder at the valley entrance. He wore a red robe, and his sinister expression brimmed with killing intent. His head of red hair made him particularly conspicuous.
Liu Yan frowned. Could that brat truly have been frightened into hiding?
At that thought, a disdainful curve rose at the corner of his lips. As expected, he was a piece of trash who had only just become an Outer Disciple—he had actually been scared into not daring to show himself.
However, at that moment, a figure flashed over from the distance, followed by an indifferent voice.
"No need to wait. I'm here!"
Whoosh!
In an instant, Lu Changsheng landed atop a massive boulder.
Uproar!
"He's finally appeared!"
"I didn't expect this brat to have such nerve. He knows the Flame Alliance is waiting here, yet he still dares to show himself?"
"..."
At once, a commotion broke out among the surrounding disciples.
"You are Lu Changsheng? You truly surprise me. I never expected you to dare show yourself! You injured members of my Flame Alliance and wounded my younger sister as well. Today, I will make you pay in blood!"
Liu Yan said with a sinister gaze.
"That's right, I injured your sister. So what? I even think I went too easy on her before. A rude and unreasonable woman like her should be taught a lesson!"
Lu Changsheng sneered.
"You!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingqing gnashed her teeth in fury, flames of rage surging in her eyes. She had not expected this bastard to dare list her faults right in front of Liu Yan!
"Just wait. You will regret every word you said. My brother will grind you beneath his feet, and then we'll see how you wag your tail and beg for mercy!"
Liu Qingqing said sinisterly.
A murderous glint flashed through Liu Yan's eyes as well, and then he said,
"You fool who does not know whether you live or die! My sister may be somewhat spoiled and willful, but how could a piece of trash like you be allowed to bully her? You have only just become an Outer Disciple. In my eyes, you are not even as good as trash!"
"Cut the nonsense. Since you want to grind me beneath your feet, then give it a try. I'm only afraid that you, Liu Yan, do not have the ability!"
Lu Changsheng said coldly.
Hiss—
"This guy actually dares to provoke Liu Yan on his own initiative. Has he gone mad?"
"Hehe, a piece of trash who just became an Outer Disciple actually dares to spout such wild nonsense!"
"Liu Yan is a genius ranked among the top fifty on the Outer Disciples Ranking. One finger would probably be enough to crush him to death!"
"..."
Lu Changsheng's words were like a single stone stirring a thousand waves, drawing an uproar from countless disciples...
