" The Hundred Transformations of the Wandering Dragon..." Qi Ling slowly examined this new movement technique. Since the Dragon Maiden highly praised this technique, it must have some extraordinary features that could bring Qi Ling even greater power.
This technique is quite similar to Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. In the initial stage, both focus on training movement techniques, learning how to unleash maximum power while shifting and turning.
However, when the skill is cultivated to an advanced level, it becomes completely different. With the Hundred Transformations of the Wandering Dragon, it can accomplish many things that are completely impossible, and even evade attacks that cannot be avoided.
This is not merely a training method for how to exert force and dodge, but also a mysterious and unpredictable skill involving a wide range of aspects, with endless ingenious applications as the Divine Dragon transforms.
Qi Ling was very satisfied with her gains this time, because only things that can actually be used can be considered practical.
Then, Qi Ling couldn't help but look at the stone that had been with her all this time, and asked the Dragon Maiden, " Dragon Maiden, what's the name of this stone? Can I take it with me?"
"This stone is called the Devil-Trapping Stone. After you pass this trial, it will naturally be useless. You may take it with you if you wish," the Dragon Maiden said. "However, what do you intend to do with it, Master?"
Qi Ling laughed and said, "This is a good thing. Don't you think it's an incredibly powerful weapon?"
"Weapons?" the Dragon Maiden asked, puzzled.
"That's right. Think about it, whoever picks up this stone will fall into a time trap and be unable to escape. Isn't that a pretty useful weapon?" Qi Ling laughed.
The Dragon Maiden immediately understood Qi Ling's meaning, but still said, "Master, although I'm sorry to spoil your fun, this thing is only useful against those below the God Level! You can handle enemies below the God Level yourself, right?"
"Uh, is that so?" Qi Ling was immediately disappointed, but it made sense. After becoming a god, if one didn't even have this much ability, then one would be too weak.
"That's not bad either. Although the scope has been narrowed down quite a bit, we'll need it sooner or later!" Qi Ling said.
Afterwards, Qi Ling carefully wrapped the Devil-Trapping Stone in a special material and put it into the Infinite Space. This thing would take effect immediately if it was touched even slightly, and it was a deadly weapon that could kill anyone who touched it, so it had to be kept safe.
Actually, Qi Ling had already thought this through. He himself didn't need it, but that didn't mean others couldn't! He could give it to someone who couldn't defend themselves, and it could be enough to deliver a decisive blow when the enemy was caught off guard!
After getting ready, Qi Ling looked up at her head and said to the Dragon Maiden, " Dragon Maiden, since that's the case, can I continue to challenge the fourth level?"
"I'm sorry, Master, the Dragon God Nine Trials are divided into three stages, and with your current level, you are not qualified to participate in the next stage of the assessment," the Dragon Maiden said.
Upon hearing the Dragon Maiden's words, Qi Ling exclaimed in surprise, "What? No way? Dragon Maiden, I'm not even qualified to proceed to the next level yet? That's too much! The Dragon God Nine Trials are, after all, just a selection process for gods, but I feel like I'm already on par with ordinary gods, right?"
"It's not that simple, Master. You must know you are the Dragon God," the Dragon Maiden laughed. "If you don't believe me, you can try. If you can reach the next island, then you can begin the fourth stage of the assessment."
"Also, I should let you know in advance that from here on out, when you travel to the next island, you can no longer rely on the strength of others; you can only proceed using your own power," the Dragon Maiden said.
"Is that so? We can't use external assistance anymore." Qi Ling said thoughtfully. Indeed, without Ning Rongrong's help, the difficulty would increase dramatically. In that case, she wouldn't even be able to break through to the third island.
"However, how could I be content to give up without even trying?" Qi Ling laughed. "If I had given up immediately after someone told me it wouldn't work, I wouldn't be who I am today."
As she spoke, Qi Ling transformed into Divine Dragon and flew upwards towards the island. She quickly passed through the protective shield surrounding the island and reached the Forbidden Area in the Sky outside.
To Qi Ling's surprise, the moment she reached this level, a tremendous force acted upon her, forcing Qi Ling back again.
Having finally regained her balance in mid-air, Qi Ling looked at the high sky outside the protective shield and said speechlessly, "This... is a bit too exaggerated, isn't it? I can't even get out!"
"No, it would be too embarrassing to continue like this. The Dragon Maiden would definitely laugh at me. At the very least, I can't be stuck here, can I?" Qi Ling said, determined. "I'll try one more time. I refuse to believe it!"
Then, Qi Ling launched another attack on the Forbidden Area in the Sky, and this time, he used the movement technique he had just mastered: the Hundred Transformations of the Wandering Dragon!
Unlike Tang San's movement technique, which achieves maximum results with minimal body movement, the Hundred Transformations of the Wandering Dragon technique has a wide range of changes, with almost no repetition between movements, and no discernible pattern.
But even under such circumstances, the Forbidden Area in the Sky that had previously made Qi Ling unable to even stand was actually broken through by Qi Ling. He successfully arrived outside the protective barrier and was now struggling to fly upwards.
The reason this movement technique performs this way is because Qi Ling is now a Divine Dragon! As the Divine Dragon moves its body, it not only adjusts its muscle movements to concentrate its power and achieve a better breakthrough, but also generates a new power that protects Qi Ling's body and helps him resist external pressure.
However, despite having exerted his full strength, Qi Ling Qi Ling his limit after advancing a hundred meters and could not go any further. In the end, he had no choice but to retreat from the air.
"Hoo, this pressure is terrifying." Qi Ling said, panting, " Dragon Maiden, according to your estimate, what level of strength do I need to reach the fourth island?"
"Well, that's hard to say, Master. But at the very least, you'll need to obtain another Soul Ring!" the Dragon Maiden said.
"Obtain another Soul Ring? You mean, become Titled Douluo?" Qi Ling asked. "That might be difficult. I don't know how long it takes to become Titled Douluo."
"Oh dear, Master, obtaining another Soul Ring doesn't necessarily mean it has to be your Martial Soul," the Dragon Maiden said helplessly. "Have you forgotten that you possess Twin Martial Souls?"
Qi Ling slapped his forehead. It was true! Because he hadn't used the Blood Devil Emperor Martial Soul for a long time, he had even forgotten that he had Qi Ling Twin Martial Souls!
More importantly, the Blood Devil Emperor Martial Soul currently only has seven Soul Ring, with the eighth Soul Ring slot vacant. Once he obtains a suitable Soul Ring, he can gain even more power.
