Conceptual Skill! You are Battle Dragon Warrior!

Roar!

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared, its right palm extending five Dark Gold sharp blades.

It compressed all its strength into the tips of its claws, no longer releasing energy blades, but concentrating that all-tearing sharpness within the claws themselves.

Golden light compressed madly at the claw tips, carrying a terrifying aura that tore through the air, and slammed straight down towards Liu Erlong's head.

This claw was a sneak attack it had long planned.

However.

The sharp claws stopped in mid-air.

As if hitting an invisible wall.

But then she saw.

Liu Erlong's left hand was firmly blocking the giant palm.

The five Dark Gold sharp blades, compressed with terrifying power, were held by her single hand above her head, unmoving, unable to advance an inch.

"Damn beast, how dare you sneak attack me, die!"

Liu Erlong's golden dragon eyes suddenly erupted with fierce rage.

Her left hand, which was blocking, shoved the giant palm outwards, while her right hand, in a reverse grip, seized one of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's claws, her fingers tightening like iron pincers.

Nine-Fold Explosive Slam.

She swung the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear around like a sandbag.

Slamming it down headfirst, creating a human-shaped pit.

Slamming it down backwards, the ground cracked into a spiderweb.

Slamming it down sideways, a row of ancient trees were snapped in half.

Rumble, the entire dense forest trembled with the explosive sounds.

"How dare you sneak attack me, you beast, you're asking for death!"

"How dare you deceive me, you are guilty!"

"What's with this three-thousand-times thing every day, hateful!"

"It's all your fault, bear, why don't you just die!"

Liu Erlong's scolding grew more vigorous, and as she scolded, her words later took on a different tone, as if hinting at something.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had no power to fight back, being swung around by her holding one of its claws, its massive body smashing one imprint after another into the earth.

"This hand of yours that sneak attacked me, you won't need it anymore."

Liu Erlong lifted the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear up again, aiming it straight at the sky.

Immediately after, her waist twisted sharply, her body spinning in place, like a crocodile biting its prey and performing a death roll.

The hand holding the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear spun rapidly, terrifying centrifugal force mixed with brute strength, forcibly twisting that arm off at the shoulder joint.

Squelch!

Blood splattered, and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared in agony.

Liu Erlong casually tossed the severed arm aside, and before it could land, she grabbed the other arm directly.

The Death Roll was initiated again, and the second arm was also forcibly twisted off.

Squelch!

Blood splattered.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared in agony.

"What are you roaring about?"

As the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear fell, Liu Erlong directly unleashed a Rising Dragon Fist into its nasal cavity.

The crisp sound of bone breaking exploded, and the terrifying fist force propelled the massive giant bear straight up into the sky for a thousand meters.

The Golden Holy Flame Dragon Wings behind Liu Erlong flapped violently, sonic booms exploding in place, Mach rings appearing behind her.

Her figure instantly surpassed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, hovering above it.

He raised his right hand and slammed it hard into the chest of the charging bear.

Boom.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's chest bones shattered, its massive body turning into a meteor that smashed into the ground.

A small mushroom cloud rose from the depths of the dense forest, shaking the entire woods.

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a huge crater appeared where the bear had been.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear lay covered in blood, its chest bones completely crushed, spitting blood in large gulps, on the verge of death.

A streak of light flashed down, and Liu Erlong landed above the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's head.

"I hate sneak attacks the most. Die!"

She stomped her foot fiercely.

Crack. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's head shattered.

The top predator, capable of tearing apart a Ninety Thousand Year Soul Beast at ten thousand years, was dead.

Liu Erlong continued to curse.

"One beast, one who deceived me, you're asking for death!"

Suddenly, The black latex suit on her body stirred, and two whips shot out from behind, cracking twice on her perky buttocks.

"!!"

Liu Erlong's body stiffened abruptly.

Phantom Dragon Impact activated simultaneously.

"Wait a minute—what are you doing?!"

Liu Erlong's previously imposing aura suddenly dropped several levels, her eyes involuntarily rolling back.

The whips continued to lash, and Jiang Ce's voice echoed in her mind with a half-smile:

"What am I doing? Someone was just speaking indirectly. It seems someone is unhappy."

"N-no way—hurry and stop your Phantom Dragon Impact!"

"Don't... don't rotate... impact!"

"Ohoho..."

"Is that so?"

The vibration didn't decrease; instead, it intensified.

Liu Erlong's legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's head.

"Stop it... I really didn't..." Liu Erlong immediately surrendered.

She felt the phantom dragon begin to grow from one meter, and if she didn't beg for mercy now, it would really come out of her mouth.

Although Jiang Ce's enhancements were all-around, making her physical fitness extremely strong, and her internal organs and intestines incredibly resilient—

this precisely meant she could be toyed with by Jiang Ce at will.

"Next time you speak indirectly, pay attention to the occasion. Otherwise, be careful your mind goes blank and you become a wooden dragon that can only moan."

"Got it..."

Jiang Ce let out a satisfied cackle as he felt Liu Erlong, who had been so arrogant moments ago, now too weak to stand under his slight manipulation.

The vibration slowly subsided, and Liu Erlong's whites slowly receded as she finally snapped out of her daze.

Above the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a black Soul Ring slowly rose.

Liu Erlong sat down cross-legged, retracting all her enhancements and the Golden Holy Dragon Flame Dragon Wing.

She began to refine the Soul Ring.

Soul Power surged, and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's vengeful spirit could only tremble before her, obediently being refined.

Power washed over Liu Erlong's body.

Sixty-one, sixty-two, sixty-three.

Sixth Soul Skill, Shield of Courage:

Based on courage, condensed from dragon wings into a shield.

As long as courage is not extinguished, the Shield of Courage will not break.

As long as the Shield of Courage is not broken, courage will not be extinguished.

With courage remaining and fighting spirit soaring, all attributes increase by 100%.

Liu Erlong stared at the description of this Soul Skill, her mouth slightly agape.

This was a defensive skill, and also an amplification skill.

As long as her courage did not falter, this shield would never be broken.

And if the shield wasn't broken, her courage would never be exhausted.

Truly, it was a Conceptual Skill as Jiang Ce had said.

"Conceptual! This is a super defensive skill, and it can also boost all attributes by one hundred percent! Hurry, hurry, go check the palm bone that's guaranteed to drop, and bring that external soul bone here to see if it really can be the Dragon Beast Nemesis."

Ever since he saw the Dragon Emperor Gaia Cannon as the fifth soul skill, he had a premonition—

That Liu Erlong's subsequent acquisitions would definitely be conceptual.

Liu Erlong turned her attention to the two Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear arms she had torn off, especially the right palm bone—it was currently shimmering with a dark golden light.

She condensed a small knife from the Venom and began to peel away the palm bone.

As expected, after the flesh and bone separated, a dark golden palm bone appeared before her.

An external soul bone.

Liu Erlong fused with it.

Soul Power surged again as she refined and absorbed it.

Sixty-four, sixty-five.

The external soul bone skill, Arms Transform into Claws: Dragon Beast Nemesis.

Against dragon-type beings, it ignored all defenses.

"I see you're a dragon!"

A few simple lines of description, yet they contained extremely terrifying attributes.

Liu Erlong even experimented with the external soul bone skill.

A dark golden light flashed on her arms—

Not the claw form of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, A pair of giant claw-shaped armaments extended from the outside of her forearms, the dark golden claw blades on the golden armguards glinting with a cold, sharp light.

This Dragon Beast Nemesis, as its name suggested, was immensely powerful against dragon-type beasts, effectively countering dragons and unleashing extraordinary strength.

"It really is the Dragon Beast Nemesis! I've made a killing!"

Jiang Ce chuckled sinisterly, "Indeed, Big Milk Dragon, you are the reincarnation of Battle Dragon Warrior, otherwise how could your moves be exactly the same? The Death Roll you just did, combined with this Dragon Beast Nemesis, is simply Battle Tornado!"

Battle Dragon Warrior's Battle Tornado was precisely the act of bringing the Dragon Beast Nemesis on both arms together above the head, And then charging forward at high speed while spinning to pierce through the enemy!

Liu Erlong looked at the pair of dark golden claw blades extending from the outside of her forearms, The corners of her mouth slowly curved into an arrogant arc.

Battle Tornado?

According to Jiang Ce's description.

It did seem quite similar.

She flexed the Dragon Beast Nemesis, the claw blades slicing through the air, creating sharp whistling sounds.

From now on, any dragon before her would merely be prey waiting to be slaughtered!

However, she still scoffed at Jiang Ce's claim that he was the reincarnation of Battle Dragon Warrior.

According to Jiang Ce's description, that Battle Dragon Warrior was a male.

"I was clearly trained by you, you scoundrel, to be a female dragon who only knows how to use Evil Dragon Roar."

Liu Erlong rolled her eyes.

"That's right, you're indeed a female dragon who only knows how to make 'oh oh' sounds."

Jiang Ce chuckled sinisterly, and several tentacles extended from his Black Latex Suit, directly binding Liu Erlong.

"Scoundrel, don't start bothering me again, quickly absorb this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and then let's leave."

"We've been messing around here for quite a while, fighting every day, and then you bother me at night. Let's hurry back to the city, I need a good rest."

"Didn't I let you rest well?"

Jiang Ce tightly bound Liu Erlong's curves, constricting them until they resembled the chubby arms of a Michelin Man spokesperson.

"You call that resting?" Liu Erlong's mouth twitched.

"That's being knocked out by you."

This scoundrel never intended to let her rest.

She had to admit, he was truly the Tentacle Monster he claimed to be.

Damn it, he was simply a demon.

An Incubus.

If his body hadn't been significantly strengthened, he would have been killed by him long ago.

Jiang Ce let out a satisfied, cackling laugh and stopped teasing her.

Those tentacles released her and wrapped around the massive Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, along with the two severed arms that had been torn off.

Everything was covered, dissolved, and devoured by the Venom tissue.

After a good while, this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, which carried the residual bloodline of a Behemoth, was completely consumed.

It converted four thousand years of cultivation for him.

His own age reached seventy-four thousand years.

Compared to other Soul Beasts, these four thousand years came from the Behemoth bloodline, making the power even purer.

Liu Erlong also received a feedback of Soul Power equivalent to four hundred years of a Soul Beast's cultivation.

The Soul Power within her body rose by another small margin, saving her a considerable amount of arduous cultivation time.

"Alright, how much longer are you two going to keep watching from over there?"
