Dragon Prince Yuan c1-1251

  “The Heavenly Serpent Scales are strong enough to defend against the attacks of a Divine Dwelling expert, while also possessing many mystical abilities. They will basically allow one to transform into a human shaped Heavenly Serpent, an existence that is tyrannical to the extreme.”

  “If there comes a day where I manage to reach the third level grade 9 Galaxy Sacred Dragon Qi, it will be even more amazing. The scales will evolve into the Sacred Dragon Scales, and only god knows how powerful they will be.”

  Zhou Yuan could not help but feel somewhat overwhelmed by such thoughts, but was quickly able to suppress his emotions. He knew that such things were still way too far off for him at this current time, and what he needed to do now was to take things one step at a time and strengthen his foundations.

  He raised his head, looking towards the storm that was gradually brewing on Wei Youxuan’s face. The opponents before him were going to be the best stepping stones for this purpose.

  Wei Youxuan icily said, “I never imagined that there will come a day when my Genesis Breaker Hand would be broken.”

  As he spoke, deep black as the night Genesis Qi violently churned around his body. Hissess were heard as it stirred the surrounding air, a sign that he was furious inside.

  Evidently, Wei Youxuan, whom had been smiling from the start, had finally been angered.

  Wei Youxuan suddenly slapped his bleeding hand onto the ground as night black Genesis Qi rapidly extended like a swamp.

  “Black Swamp!”

  The entire stone stage was instantly engulfed by the swamp like night black Genesis Qi as countless snake like streams of Genesis Qi shot out and snaked towards Zhou Yuan.

  Zhou Yuan’s figure rapidly etherealized, like a wisp of smoke as he drifted across the surface of the black swamp, avoiding all of the attacks.

  Plop!

  Countless seemingly sticky black rays of light shot out from the swamp, seemingly forming a giant net that loomed at Zhou Yuan.

  Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. With a jerk of his sleeve, a giant wind lightning ball condensed in his hand, pulsing with berserk Genesis Qi undulations.

  “Great Wind and Thunder!”

  The wind lightning ball was mercilessly slammed into the black swamp.

  Boom!

  Genesis Qi containing the primal power of wind and lightning swept outwards, forcibly shattering the black swamp that had covered the ground as the spreading black rapidly receded.

  The sticky giant net also burst apart, transforming into specks of light that filled the sky.

  Swish!

  As the light danced in the air, a sharp wind sound was heard as a flash of icy light with a sinister aura pierced through the air, heading straight for Zhou Yuan’s throat.

  It was a black halberd.

  Zhou Yuan made a grabbing motion as the Heavenly Yuan Brush landed in his hand. With a slight tremble, it rapidly began to grow, its snow-white hairs spreading into a white net.

  Ch!

  The black halberd stabbed the white net, stretching it at a soul trembling angle, the sharp tip of the halberd merely an inch from Zhou Yuan’s throat. However, it was ultimately unable to take that final step, and was bounced back by the net.

  As the black halberd was sent flying, Zhou Yuan’s etherealised figure shot forth, the Heavenly Yuan Brush in his hands transforming into innumerable flashes of icy light that surrounded Wei Youxuan who was dashing over from behind.

  Clang clang clang!

  Wei Youxuan brandished the black halberd, night black Genesis Qi rising like smoke around him. After images of the halberd seemed to fill the area, blocking every single thrust of the snow-white brush tip.

  The eyes of both individuals were ice-cold, neither showing any mercy. Every attack was aimed at a fatal spot, but was ultimately blocked by the other party.

  It was a passionate battle akin to that between a lion and tiger.

  On the cliffs in the vicinity, the hearts of numerous disciples shivered as they watched the ferocious clash between the two in the arena. From the aftershocks of each clash, any fifth layer disciple that was sent in would likely be torn to pieces in less than four rounds.

  A fight of this calibre was already not inferior to one between purple sash disciples.

  Clang!

  Sparks flew as brush tip and halberd tip collided, creating a shockwave of Genesis Qi that blew even the air apart.

  Zhou Yuan and Wei Youxuan’s figures jerked, before shooting backwards.

  Zhou Yuan swung the Heavenly Yuan Brush, his eyes narrowing slightly as he felt the seemingly boiling Genesis Qi in his body. Both of them had clashed directly earlier, but there were still not even the tiniest indication of him being at the disadvantage.

  Evidently, his Genesis Qi foundations were already able to directly face a sixth layer disciple after Genesis Marrow Baptism.

  There were a little over seven hundred Genesis Qi stars in Zhou Yuan’s Qi Dwelling, while an ordinary sixth layer disciple should have eight hundred. However, Zhou Yuan’s Omni Python Qi was undoubtedly even more wondrous than normal Genesis Qi, being more abundant and lasting, making it not the least bit inferior to the usual sixth layer.

  “It seems that there’s nothing great about the sixth layer Alpha-Origin.” Zhou Yuan chuckled softly as he looked towards Wei Youxuan.

  Wei Youxuan did not reply, merely casting an icy glance at Zhou Yuan. The former likewise understood that although the latter was only at the third layer, there was not much advantage a sixth layer like himself had in the aspect of Genesis Qi.

  Zhou Yuan was an unexpectedly difficult opponent.

  However, to think that a disciple that had just joined the inner mountains would dare to brag in front of him, did the former really believe he had nothing else to show...

  “Junior brother Zhou Yuan, young people should not be so arrogant. Since elder Shen did not teach you how to respect your seniors, as a senior brother, I shall give you a proper lesson on the subject on his behalf!” An icy smile rose from the corners of Wei Youxuan’s lips.

  Clang!

  The black halberd in his hand slammed into the ground, embedding itself into the floor.

  His sleeves suddenly disintegrated at this moment, revealing his arms. Black runes could be seen on them, wriggling like worms.

  These black runes gathered together into what appeared to be a strange rune.

  An eerie aura immediately spread, causing the surrounding temperature to drop as terrifying undulations began to surge and converge in Wei Youxuan’s body.

  Thud!

  Wei Youxuan’s hands slammed together as the black runes on his arms frantically began to spread. In a short few breaths, they burrowed into his flesh and blood.

  Wisp after wisp of black Qi began to rise from the surface of Wei Youxuan’s body.

  Robust black Genesis Qi swirled behind him as it released a piercing whistle.

  The expression of the numerous watching disciple changed slightly, evidently sensing the sudden rapidly rising Genesis Qi undulations in Wei Youxuan’s body...

  Such Genesis Qi undulations were definitely not from an ordinary little Heaven Genesis technique!

  It was obvious that Wei Youxuan was finally revealing his trump card.

  As black Qi rose, Weu Youxuan’s eyes turned pitch-black as he sinisterly looked towards Zhou Yuan and grinned, revealing a set of eerily white teeth. “Although I’ve yet to fully master it, it should be enough to deal with the likes of you.”

  “Junior brother Zhou Yuan, I hope that you will not be too arrogant in the future. You should know that there are many in the inner mountains that have the ability to deal with you.”

  “You don’t have the qualifications to be cocky here!”

  The instant the final word was said, his hands clasped each other as an eerily cold voice echoed in the mountain.

  “Low grade Heaven Genesis technique, Great Black Devil!”

  Rumble!

  Alarming Genesis Qi erupte
d from Wei Youxuan’s body like a volcano at this moment.

  The many disciples on the surrounding cliffs turned pale with horror.

  In a certain stone pavilion, the eyes on Lu Xuanyin’s originally ugly looking face brightened up in excitement at this moment as her hands tightly clasped together.

  That brash Zhou Yuan had finally forced out Wei Youxuan’s trump card!

  Do you really believe that there’s no one who can control you today?!

  Chapter 341 Ninth Dragon

  Ch ch!

  Strand after strand of black Genesis Qi continuously rose from Wei Youxuan’s flesh as alarmingly violent Genesis Qi undulations swept out like a storm, causing cracks to grow from under his feet due to the Genesis Qi pressure.

  The expressions of the numerous disciples on the surrounding cliffs changed slightly.

  In one of the stone pavilions, a cold smile was revealed on Lu Hong’s face. Wei Youxuan’s Great Black Devil was not complete, and had not been fully mastered by him. Even so, he was still able to bring out thirty percent of its power.

  Even a mere thirty percent of a low grade Heaven Genesis technique was not something ordinary little Heaven Genesis techniques could compare to.

  When Wei Youxuan used this technique, it meant that the battle would soon come to a close.

  Lu Hong’s cold eyes swept a glance at the nearby Shen Taiyuan. The latter’s aged face was stretched taut at this moment, because he knew that though Zhou Yuan also had a low grade Heaven Genesis technique, Heavenly Sun God Record, he had yet to master it...

  It was different from the Great Black Devil technique, because it could not be used unless mastered.

  A trace of mockery rose from the corners of Lu Hong’s lips. Had Shen Taiyuan really been counting on Zhou Yuan to bring about a reversal? This was really looking down on his own disciples.

  “I’ll let you know the meaning of true despair!”

  A cruel look surfaced in Lu Hong’s eyes. Never mind, although it was not possible to make Shen Taiyuan’s faction lose all face, it would probably make Shen Taiyuan quite sullen when the hope he just discovered was immediately extinguished.

  In Lu Song’s stone pavilion, his brows were slightly furrowed as he observed the black Qi swirling around Wei Youxuan. This event was evidently also somewhat out of his expectations.

  By the side, Lu Yan exclaimed in surprise, “Wei Youxuan is really surprising. To think that he managed to learn the Great Black Devil technique. Even amongst the Lu Hong’s purple sash disciples, there are not many who have been able to do so.”

  Lu Song shook his head. “He has not fully mastered it. If not, it would not be invading his flesh.”

  Lu Yan shrugged and said, “But even so, it should be enough to deal with Zhou Yuan.”

  Lu Song sighed, before he said in a rather regretful manner, “What a pity…”

  Lu Yan’s lips curled slightly downwards. “What’s there to feel pitiful about. He’s already very capable to have pushed Wei Youxuan so far. Did you really expect him to defeat even Wei Youxuan?”

  She let out a soft laugh, clearly feeling that Lu Song was overestimating Zhou Yuan.

  Lu Song sighed as he nodded.

  “Indeed, it is already quite a feat to have pushed Wei Youxuan so far with only the third layer cultivation…”

  ...

  Screech!

  As the black Qi rising from his flesh grew thicker and thicker, Wei Youxuan’s body suddenly began to grow, breaking even his clothes. In a short few breaths, the originally handsome looking Wei Youxuan had transformed into a mini black giant.

  His body was covered in black runes as black Qi swirled around him, a sight that was incomparably bizarre.

  The Great Black Devil technique could temporarily make one’s body become extremely powerful. At close quarters, the destructive power that could be released in an instant was basically a nightmare.

  Wei Youxuan’s eyes had become pitch-black. He slowly lifted his head, his gaze locking onto Zhou Yuan like a hawk as the corners of his lips raised to form a hideous, twisted smile.

  “I was hoping to save this for the purple sash disciple selection test. The fact that you’ve forced me to use it is already proof your ability.”

  Boom!

  The instant the final word left his mouth, Wei Youxuan’s foot slammed into the ground, shattering it as his enormous figure transformed into a flash of black that shot forth. His speed was quick as thunder.

  “Such speed!” Zhou Yuan’s pupils shrank slightly. Wei Youxuan was now alarmingly quick.

  Boom!

  The black shadow appeared in front of him like a phantom. However, Zhou Yuan roared, Genesis Qi surging along the Heavenly Yuan Brush as he swung it from over his head like an axe.

  “Million Whale Rune!”

  Resplendent rays of light exploded from the brush as a faint silhouette of a giant whale appeared. The power in the brush was tremendous enough to shatter a mountain, as it powerfully hacked at Wei Youxuan with dreadful force.

  Wei Youxuan raised both arms in a cross above him, directly meeting the Heavenly Yuan Brush.

  Boom!

  Ripples that could be seen with the naked eye pulsed, directly fracturing the surrounding cliffs, while cracks swiftly grew on the stone stage below their feet.

  However, not even a single wound had appeared on Wei Youxuan’s thick black arms, the resultant force from their clash blowing away Zhou Yuan instead.

  Swish!

  Wei Youxuan’s figure closed in like phantom the moment Zhou Yuan was sent flying, five fingers forming a fist that blasted towards the latter’s without the slightest shred of hesitation.

  A terrifying force assaulted Zhou Yuan, making him feel a piercing pain on his skin.

  In the face of the overbearing Wei Youxuan, a ruthless look flashed in Zhou Yuan’s eyes as he clenched his fist. The Magical Dragon Scales appeared, azure light swirling on them as the power in his body spiked.

  Thud!

  A giant fist and a small fist slammed into each other.

  Zhou Yuan’s body immediately jerked back, the azure scales on his fist shattering as he took several steps back in succession.

  In contrast, Wei Youxuan was only pushed a dozen steps back, before managing to stabilize his body.

  “Zhou Yuan, is this all you’re capable of?”

  Wei Youxuan’s sinister eyes locked onto Zhou Yuan with a hideous smile. “If so, then it's time to use the spot I saved you on the cliff!”

  Zhou Yuan’s eyes hardened slightly. His hands instantly came together, his body shuddering as torrent after torrent of vigorous Genesis Qi dashed out from the top of his head.

  Roar!

  “Nine Dragons Canon, eighth dragon!”

  Eight Genesis Beasts created from Genesis Qi flew out, savage auras pulsing from their bodies. In the blink of an eye, all of them charged towards Wei Youxaun with a hiss.

  “Haha, you dare to take out a mere little Heaven Genesis technique? You’re only making a fool of yourself!” Wei Youxuan’s loud laughter boomed like thunder. His bulky body shot forward in a straight line as he threw out a barrage of fists that smashed into the eight ferocious Genesis Qi Genesis Beasts.

  Boom boom boom!

  Berserk Genesis Qi shockwaves devastated the area.

  Every beast Wei Youxuan smashed apart made him take a few steps back. By the time he finally destroyed the eighth beast, his feet had nicely arrived at the edge of the stone stage.

  Fresh blood dripped from his black fists.

  Numerous disciples were dumbstruck by this scene. No one had expected Wei Youxuan to be so fierce, using his bare fists to violently punch apart eight ferocious Genesis Qi beasts.

  One must know that each one of those eight beasts were able to crush a fifth layer disciple.

  And yet, all eight had been unable to deal with the current Wei Youxuan.

  “Not bad, I’ll admit that I underestimated your Nine Dragons Canon…”

  Wei y
ouxuan looked towards his bloody fists, before his cold gaze turned towards Zhou Yuan. The former had originally believed he would be able to easily shatter the attack, and had not expected to end up ultimately paying a price to stop it.

  Although the Nine Dragons Canon was a high little Heaven Genesis technique, its power was extremely astonishing in Zhou Yuan’s hands, far surpassing that of your usual run-of-the-mill high grade little Heaven Genesis techniques.

  “So eight dragons is not enough…” Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. After using the eight dragons to probe, he now knew that the other party was not an overly powerful existence he could do nothing against...

  As such, he somewhat helplessly sighed as he said, “I originally wanted to save this too…”

  “Oh?” Mockery raised from the corners of Wei Youxuan’s lips.

  Zhou Yuan did not answer, merely lightly shutting his eyes. In the next instant, hisses suddenly rang out as eight roaring Genesis Qi Genesis Beasts emerged.

  “Again?” The mockery on Wei Youxuan’s lips grew even greater. Although Zhou Yuan’s Nine Dragons Canon was not weak, it was clearly unable to contend against him in this state. Zhou Yuan’s actions were only a waste of Genesis Qi.

  “Looks like that’s all you have. Since that is the case… it’s time for me to hang you up on that cliff!”

  He stepped forward, finally intending to finish this match.

  However, Zhou Yuan’s hands suddenly formed a seal as his calm voice echoed,

  “Nine Dragons Canon… ninth dragon!”

  One could only watch as the eight beasts above his head suddenly released sky-shattering hisses, one of them abruptly opening its giant mouth, and swallowing another Genesis Qi beast.

  After devouring one, it continued to eat the other six.

  When the final beast was eaten, everyone could only stare at the now thousand feet long Genesis Qi beast that coiled in the air above Zhou Yuan like a ferocious without equal giant dragon.

  A heart palpitating sensation of violence and savagery pulsed.
