Red Affix: True Dragon Soul

"Success!"

"Junior Brother Huang Long's body is so powerful that he directly ignored the Taiqing Divine Thunder's attack."

"Good. The Taiqing Divine Thunder has been rendered useless. Li Yun will be unable to resist now!"

"After all, he has a True Dragon Body. In close combat, Li Yun cannot possibly be his opponent."

Seeing this, Guang Chengzi and the other Chan Golden Immortals were overjoyed.

Given the current situation, Li Yun's defeat was already inevitable in their eyes.

Even they would have no means of resistance if Huang Long revealed his true form and closed in. Li Yun might not be weak, but there was no way he could withstand such a sudden assault.

And not just them.

Duobao and the other Jie Teachings Disciples in the nearby area were also watching the situation in the arena with rapt attention.

They, too, were looking forward to what would happen next. If Li Yun had only mastered the Taiqing Divine Thunder, then the outcome of this Combat Tournament was already obvious.

But they knew that was basically impossible.

As a Human Teachings Disciple, how could he possess only this little ability?

Since that was the case, they needed to see what trump cards and other methods Li Yun possessed. After all, he would become their opponent as well.

Under such circumstances, Li Yun merely grinned. Looking at Huang Long's incoming claw, he unexpectedly raised a hand slowly and suddenly clenched it before him.

With a dull bang, Huang Long's claw froze seven inches before Li Yun. No matter how he exerted his strength or mobilized his Magical Power, he could not advance even an inch. Instead, Li Yun gripped the claw with one hand, and as his strength steadily increased, Huang Long felt intense pain.

"That's impossible!"

With a startled cry, the pained Huang Long finally understood what was happening.

His attack had actually been neutralized so easily. Moreover, the force transmitted through Li Yun's seemingly slender palm was incredibly powerful, even surpassing his own.

Although he possessed a True Dragon Body,

Huang Long himself had not focused on cultivating it. As a result, while his physical body was indeed formidable, both his realm and strength were far inferior to Li Yun's.

That was precisely why, when Li Yun's strength erupted, Huang Long could not resist at all. Even as he wildly twisted his body and struggled to free himself, he could not break away.

"What is going on?"

"Li Yun's physical strength—how could it possibly be this powerful?"

"Impossible. This should not be happening."

"..."

Guang Chengzi and the others cried out in shock. They stood dumbfounded as they watched the scene, feeling disbelief, incredulity, and utter inability to accept it.

And not just them.

Even Duobao and the others nearby were so shocked that their mouths hung open.

They had already guessed that Li Yun still had another trick up his sleeve, but they never expected it to be physical strength.

Huang Long, a true dragon, had revealed his true form and still suffered absolute suppression. Just how tyrannical did one's body and strength have to be? Was this even a level a cultivator should possess?

"Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique!"

At that moment, Gui Ling seemed to think of something and subconsciously said, "Junior Brother Li Yun mentioned before that the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique is a method that cultivates both the physical body and the Primordial Spirit."

"That means not only is his Nascent Soul Cultivation powerful, but his physical cultivation is also extraordinarily formidable."

"With both combined, he now possesses strength that is not inferior to the Witch Clan at the same realm. That is why Huang Long's true form failed. That is why..."

As soon as she said this, Duobao and the others' pupils constricted.

Immediately afterward, Duobao, Gui Ling, Guang Chengzi, and Yu Ding—the ones who had previously been singled out—began breathing heavily.

Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique!

The power of this Three Teachings Guardian Divine Art once again overturned their understanding.

At the same time, the fervor and longing in their hearts surged to the extreme.

Although the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique was immensely difficult to cultivate, the power gained from cultivating both the Primordial Spirit and the physical body made it impossible for them not to be tempted.

Gui Ling in particular.

As a Direct Disciple, she had no shortage of resources.

More importantly, as a Direct Disciple protected by a Saint, she had no need to rush her own advancement in cultivation.

As long as she could cultivate the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique, once she reached the Eighth Revolution, she would possess strength not inferior to any Quasi-Saint cultivator. She might even attain a physical body and strength comparable to a Great Witch of the Witch Clan. By then...

"Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique?"

"What is that?"

In contrast, Kong Xuan, Luo Xuan, and the others looked at one another, having no idea what Gui Ling was talking about.

But judging from Duobao and the others' reactions, they could tell that this so-called Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique seemed to be the cultivation method Li Yun practiced, and it appeared incredibly powerful.

At that thought, Kong Xuan and the others fixed their burning gazes on Li Yun.

If it was truly because of a cultivation method, then they really wanted to investigate it—and perhaps cultivate it themselves.

"Up you go!"

At that moment, Li Yun's low roar rang out.

The next second, Li Yun shot into the sky, seized the dragon claw in one hand, and swung it violently.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

For a time, Huang Long's true form was whipped through the air and slammed relentlessly into the ground.

As time passed, the scales on Huang Long's body began to burst apart. Countless sprays of blood splattered out, while his aura rapidly weakened and withered.

"Junior Brother Li Yun, I concede! I concede!"

After being smashed around for a while longer, Huang Long finally could not endure it any further and cried out.

He felt incomparably aggrieved. He could not struggle or break free unless he severed one of his own claws.

But this was merely a spar between disciples, not a life-and-death feud. Naturally, Huang Long could not go that far.

More importantly, through Li Yun's overwhelming physical strength, he had also sensed the terror and power of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique. He had even resolved that, after this matter was over, he would ask Yuanshi Tianzun for the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique and switch to cultivating it.

At the same time, the awe he felt toward Li Yun reached an unprecedented height.

Unlike being suppressed by divine abilities, this crushing gap in strength and physique dealt him the greatest shock and blow.

[ Ding! Defeated Huang Long. Obtained Trait: True Dragon Soul (Red) ]

[ True Dragon Soul: After equipping it, you can summon a true dragon soul to protect your body. The True Dragon Soul's cultivation is equal to the host's. The stronger the host, the stronger the True Dragon Soul. ]

"Hiss..."

"A Red Affix!"

Li Yun's pupils constricted, and he nearly suspected that he had seen it wrong.

But after reading the description of the Red Affix, True Dragon Soul, he could not help curling his lips upward as he thought, Isn't this a dragon guardian?

Once I equip it, I'll have a divine dragon protecting my body. It is somewhat similar to the Nine Dragons Body Protection method of the Ultimate Emperor Seal, but it does not require Emperor's Aura or destiny to activate. Instead, it grows stronger by integrating my own strength and methods, and it can even...
