Dragon Totem

Inside the Secret Realm Gate, Jiang Yang grabbed the Azure Roc's claw with one hand and hacked fiercely with the Black Gold Ancient Blade in the other.

His fighting style was savage and crude. It could not be said that he had no technique at all; it could only be said that it had nothing to do with technique.

"Covered in divine gear, and I still can't beat you?"

Jiang Yang severed the Azure Roc's head with one slash. The Black Gold Ancient Blade neutralized its delayed injuries. In the original story, Ye Fan had also relied on this Black Gold Ancient Blade to clear the trial.

However, Ye Fan could only delay his injuries for one minute.

Jiang Yang could delay them for ten minutes. This was probably related to his own combat power.

The third stage was a black silhouette holding a greatsword.

"Professional?"

Plunderer's Insight provided no information. This shadow was entirely a creation simulated by the Secret Realm.

In the original story, the shadow in the third stage was the most common Basic Warrior.

A level-one Basic Warrior Profession possessed three times the physical ability of an ordinary person and knew a skill called Broadsword Slash.

In the novel, Ye Fan had nearly died during the third stage because this Professional shadow's attack power had almost exceeded the Black Gold Ancient Blade's limit.

The Black Gold Ancient Blade's ability to delay injuries also had a limit, and that limit changed with the user's combat power.

Without another word, Jiang Yang charged in with his blade.

This shadow simulated by the Secret Realm possessed extremely refined combat skills, but unfortunately, it had encountered Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang's physical abilities were higher, his equipment was better, and his skills were stronger.

Overwhelming stats—one force broke through ten thousand techniques!

Before the black silhouette could even approach, Jiang Yang unleashed a Crescent Slash, then rushed forward and gave it a brutal beating.

This black silhouette's combat power was not even as high as that Azure Roc's. Its combat techniques were simply exceptionally refined, but against Jiang Yang's crushing advance, it could only die here in resentment.

After clearing three stages in a row, Jiang Yang put away the Black Gold Ancient Blade. He knew that the fourth and fifth stages, which should have appeared, would not appear.

There was something wrong with this Secret Realm!

In the original story, Ye Fan had only later discovered that this Secret Realm had a total of five stages.

The fourth and fifth stages were extremely difficult, practically impossible to clear.

But for certain special reasons, the fourth and fifth stages would not appear at all during this period.

Your fortune would now become my wedding dress!

The scenery around him began to change, returning to how it had been when he first entered. Everything around him was pitch-black.

Yet within the darkness stood a magnificent body thousands of meters long.

It was a giant dragon.

A Divine Dragon straight out of Eastern myth and legend!

Strands of Dragon Might radiated outward. Countless terrifying wounds covered the giant dragon's body, making it impossible to imagine what kind of battle it had endured.

Jiang Yang's breathing quickened. In the original story, this Secret Realm had been condensed by this Divine Dragon before its death, its purpose being to protect a trace of its true spirit from perishing.

That trace of the Divine Dragon's true spirit was the Inherited Profession, Dragon Totem!

The Black Gold Ancient Blade emitted a dim glow, easing Jiang Yang's injuries. This Dragon Might had already placed immense pressure on him.

Jiang Yang now walked toward the giant dragon's head. Its eyes were closed, and a wisp of red light glowed upon its two dragon horns. That was the Dragon Totem.

Jiang Yang quickened his pace, blood beginning to spill from the corner of his mouth. The Black Gold Ancient Blade's limit for delaying injuries had been reached!

In the original story, Ye Fan had already become a man covered in blood by the time he reached the giant dragon.

Naturally, Jiang Yang could not avoid it either, but he was still somewhat stronger than Ye Fan and was not reduced to such a miserable state.

Yet as he continued forward, the sound of his bones being compressed came from his body.

This Dragon Might targeted Professionals of different realms. In the original story, after Ye Fan took the Dragon Totem, the Secret Realm still remained. The Dragon Body disappeared, but the Dragon Might remained.

A level-five Professional then entered this Secret Realm, intending to investigate its secrets, only to be crushed to death by the Dragon Might.

Without great perseverance, one could not take away the Dragon Totem.

The Dragon Might targeting Jiang Yang now was only at an ordinary person's level. Captain America Serum was merely a physiological cheat; at his core, Jiang Yang was still an ordinary Earthling.

"If Ye Fan could take it, so could I!"

Jiang Yang raised his head, breathing rapidly. The enormous pressure had already filled his entire body with agonizing pain, and it felt as though his blood had stopped flowing.

Yet he continued onward. Blood flowed from his seven orifices under the suppression, and Plunderer's Insight's inability to inspect the giant dragon's information instead left Jiang Yang mentally dazed.

He was ultimately an ordinary person. Jiang Yang's mental will was not as strong as Ye Fan's, but he also wanted to live.

His most primal desire for survival was awakened, and Jiang Yang endured the pressure as he arrived beneath the giant dragon's forehead.

The totem mark between the two dragon horns descended, and countless scenes flashed before Jiang Yang's eyes.

Amid the vast starry cosmos, a giant dragon was fighting an indescribable Monster.

Jiang Yang could not describe what that Monster looked like. A single glance left him feeling mentally deranged and his thoughts twisted. He had even lost the ability to comprehend it, unable to describe it or convey it.

Countless scenes flashed past. The giant dragon gradually fell into a disadvantage during the battle and was dragged into the abyss by that indescribable Monster, where everything began to distort.

The final scene was of the giant dragon falling, transforming into this Secret Realm on Earth.

When the visions ended, the Dragon Totem had also been imprinted upon Jiang Yang's forehead.

A dragon's roar pulled Jiang Yang out of his dazed and delirious state.
