A Dragon Rises When It Encounters Wind and Clouds

The young nobles of Jingzhou found it unacceptable and unbelievable.

This seemingly light garment actually weighs as much as ten cauldrons? And yet, Yi Yun, wearing it, managed to navigate the level 15 difficulty Cold Iron Blood Pearl Formation with ease?

This must be a joke!

"The clothes... can I take a look...?"

Song Zijun extended his hand, his gaze towards Yi Yun filled with obvious respect—the respect one would show to a strong person.

Yi Yun handed over the Flowing Silver Shirt.

Song Zijun held the Flowing Silver Shirt in both hands, gently feeling its soft texture, a hint of infatuation in his eyes.

"Exquisitely crafted and of superior quality, it is indeed a fine Flowing Silver Shirt..."

Song Zijun reluctantly returned the Flowing Silver Shirt to Yi Yun. There were some heavy clothing items for cultivation on the market, but those clothes had a fixed weight and looked like armor, which was cumbersome and would affect movement.

However, the Flowing Silver Shirt can not only be adjusted in weight at will, but it is also soft and thin. As long as you ignore its weight, it will not affect any movement.

The difference in quality is enormous.

The quality of similar clothes that Song Zijun wore before was far inferior to the one that Yi Yun had.

Seeing Song Zijun's solemn expression, the young masters of Jingzhou had no choice but to believe that the Flowing Silver Shirt was indeed as Song Zijun had said; even at its lightest, it weighed ten cauldrons.

What does it mean that Yi Yun can still use his Subtle Movement Technique while wearing clothes weighing ten cauldrons?

The young masters of Jingzhou could hardly believe it.

At this moment, Yi Yun had already flashed into the Cold Iron Blood Pearl Formation.

Having shed his Flowing Silver Shirt, Yi Yun moved with the lightness of a swallow.

He had gotten used to the weight of the Flowing Silver Shirt before, but now that it's suddenly gone, his body feels like it can't feel the weight at all.

Having previously adapted to the constraints of the Flowing Silver Shirt, every movement required overcoming its powerful elasticity. Now that this constraint is gone, Yi Yun has much more precise control over his body, allowing him to do as he pleases!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Yi Yun easily dodged each of the Cold Iron Blood Pearl; the level sixteen difficulty was simply not enough to allow Yi Yun to reach his limit!

"Haha, that's great!"

Yi Yun felt incredibly exhilarated. The feeling of suddenly losing all constraints and being able to stretch his body freely and perform all sorts of extreme movements was truly exhilarating!

However, the speed of the blood droplets was not fast enough, making Yi Yun feel that it was still a little lacking!

"Increase the difficulty level!"

Yi Yun shouted.

When this voice was uttered, the young masters of Jingzhou were speechless.

Although they were already mentally prepared when Song Zijun introduced Flowing Silver Shirt, knowing that Yi Yun's strength had reached an abnormal level.

But when they actually saw Yi Yun effortlessly dodge all the Cold Iron Blood Pearl, raising the difficulty level to another level, they were completely devastated.

Level 17 difficulty!

This level is significantly more difficult than level sixteen!

The young master from Jingzhou, who was controlling the formation, opened his dry mouth and pressed the seventeenth crystal with trembling fingers.

Boom!

The moment the difficulty level was activated, the entire formation roared and trembled.

Each Cold Iron Blood Pearl roared through the air, surging forward like a fiery meteorite rolling by, crushing visible wind patterns in the air. These compressed gusts of wind were like blades of wind.

Some soldiers were hit by the wind blades and felt a stinging pain in their cheeks.

The sheer force of the wind alone is terrifying! The power of the formation at this moment is incomparable to what it was before.

After removing his Flowing Silver Shirt, Yi Yun's eyes flashed with burning fighting spirit as he faced such a massive formation.

The force of the wind alone made Yi Yun feel as if he were trapped in a swamp, with every pore of his body feeling an oppressive pressure that restricted his movements.

After the level 17 difficulty was unlocked, the formation underwent a qualitative change: the seventeen blood beads were no longer attacking independently, but rather they were interconnected and linked.

They can work together!

The seventeen Cold Iron Blood Pearl collided continuously in the void, producing countless changes. Each collision had a different force, resulting in a subtle change in direction, making this great formation completely unpredictable and untraceable.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Three blood beads shot out from in front of Yi Yun in a triangular formation, while at the same time, ten more blood beads gathered behind Yi Yun, blocking his escape route!

Yi Yun's pupils contracted, and his body twisted at an incredible angle in mid-air, dodging all the blood droplets in one breath!

At level seventeen difficulty, Yi Yun needs to expend several times the effort to deduce the situation and make his body react to subtle changes hundreds of times in order to barely cope with each crisis.

Lost in his actions, Yi Yun, trapped within the formation, felt as if his mind and body had become perfectly aligned.

His heightened concentration allowed him to experience a mystical state.

His entire body was as supple as if boneless; every joint and every muscle could be adjusted to achieve the optimal combination according to his will.

This intense focus and physical transformation allowed him to achieve an unparalleled level of control over his body.

Gradually, as time went on, Yi Yun felt his physical strength was severely depleted again, and slowly, the sweat on his body began to turn into a thick mist.

This is a manifestation of the body being pushed to its limit, with the blood boiling like a tidal wave, and even the sweat can feel the body's scalding heat.

"This feeling... is so exhilarating! I should... be able to go even further!"

Pain and pleasure coexisted—this was a true reflection of Yi Yun's state at that moment. But the immense pain made him more aware of every subtle change in his body.

The so-called "Subtle Movement" is originally a kind of keen observation of all things, a state of profound understanding.

Yi Yun was completely immersed in this indescribable pleasure, and gradually, the ripples emanating from his body slowly spread outwards...

At some point, all expression vanished from Yi Yun's face, and he entered a profound state of selflessness.

He had the illusion that his limbs, along with every inch of his body, had extended by a foot.

Within this small area, it seemed to be his world, his domain.

Once this feeling arose, his demeanor within the great formation became composed.

As soon as the Frostblood Bead came within a foot, he reacted instantly, shifting his stance slightly, and dodged the attack before the Frostblood Bead could change direction.

To those in the audience, Yi Yun seemed to possess the ability to foresee the future.

Buzz!!

Suddenly, a strange change occurred within the great formation. At the same time, seven Cold Iron Blood Pearl collided together, changed direction in mid-air, and abruptly sealed off all the space for Yi Yun to maneuver from the four directions of east, west, south, and north!

"Seven stars aligned!"

Someone in the audience exclaimed in surprise, "Level 17 has too many bizarre changes. The blood bead attacks at this level are no longer just about speed; they have been imbued with Mysterious Charm!"

The disciples from the Great Wilderness below the stage felt their hearts tighten at the sight.

Just as he was about to be hit by the Cold Iron Blood Pearl, Yi Yun was drenched in sweat, but at the same time, his mind remained calm.

Yi Yun closed his eyes. When the seven blood beads flew into a one-foot radius around his body, the "momentum" of the blood beads was like stirring invisible ripples in his domain space. Yi Yun could clearly perceive every ripple!

In an instant, Yi Yun's vital energy circulated to its limit, every muscle in his body surged rapidly, and he could even smell the iron filings produced by the high-speed rush of the beads as he breathed. All of Yi Yun's attention was focused on the target, the four whistling, Cold Iron Blood Pearl, as if reflected in his mind.

Yi Yun's Movement Technique and footwork underwent an incredible hundred subtle changes in an instant. To outsiders, it seemed as if Yi Yun was stepping on an invisible lake, with each step creating wondrous ripples.

Call out!

Seven Cold Iron Blood Pearl passed through Yi Yun 'Yi Yun figure, giving the impression that they pierced through his body!

Ah!?

Many people exclaimed in surprise, but the next moment, they saw clearly that the blood droplets had not hit Yi Yun at all!

Yi Yun's movements remained as fluid as flowing water, and the faint overlapping shadows that formed a line lingered in the void for a long time.

Yi Yun dodged the Seven Stars Alignment without them even understanding it!

"How... how did he... do that?"

Whether they were young masters from the Great Wilderness or young noblemen from Jingzhou, they were all completely shocked.

Yi Yun's Movement Technique was like magic; his figure seemed to have lost its substance, becoming nothing more than a wisp of air. Any attack from the Cold Iron Blood Pearl passed through the air and failed to hit Yi Yun at all!

"Subtle Movement the realm of subtlety... achieving mastery! Yi Yun has already touched the threshold of Subtle Movement..."

General Yan's eyes gleamed with admiration; such a level of skill was truly remarkable!

"Subtle Movement... is that the pinnacle?"

Beneath the grand formation, Song Zijun's expression was complex.

As for the young masters of Jingzhou, their facial muscles twitched, and they could no longer make many expressions; they had been numb by Yi Yun's blows.

Subtle Movement the subtlest movements means precisely controlling one's body to dodge attacks with minimal movement, achieving an effectiveness rate of over 90%.

The Subtle Movement success involves sensing the attacker's "momentum" and using that momentum to drive one's own actions—the so-called "using the opponent's strength against them."

The ultimate mastery of the Subtle Movement realm involves sensing the "momentum" of heaven and earth, merging oneself into a surrounding area of heaven and earth, and forming one's own "absolute domain"!

Yi Yun has now essentially established his own domain within a one-foot radius. As long as Yi Yun concentrates, every movement he makes is perfectly smooth and flawless.

Yi Yun has only touched the threshold of the Subtle Movement stage, and has not yet entered the inner sanctum, but it is already a realm that the young masters of Jingzhou cannot comprehend!

"This is truly extraordinary! A golden carp is no ordinary fish; it transforms into a dragon once it encounters favorable winds and clouds!"

Yan Menglong had a premonition that Yi Yun would soar to great heights and become a rising star in the Tai'a Divine Kingdom! (To be continued~^~)
