Chapter 1676 (Raw 1688): Arrogant Azure Dragon

When Xiao Chen woke up, it was already daytime. As he slowly opened his eyes, he discovered that he lay in the middle of ruins.

He sat up with some difficulty. He felt like he was barely awake, his head befuddled and heavy, aching from head to toe.

Xiao Chen’s entire body felt uncomfortable. It was like his bones had all been scattered and then reassembled.

He gave himself a rap on the head and closed his eyes. Then, he took in a few deep breaths before he recovered a little.

When Xiao Chen opened his eyes again, he discovered a large face right before him. He could even feel the other party’s breath, which startled him.

Ignoring the soreness of his body, Xiao Chen leaped up from the ground, immediately standing up.

“Hehe! Martial Uncle, you are awake. It looks like Master was right. He said not to move you, as you would wake up naturally when the sky was bright,” Ling Yu said with a wide smile as he stood up.

Ling Yu’s complexion seemed to glow. His aura appeared stable and his Veritable Essence Energy also vaguely much stabler.

Xiao Chen immediately understood what had happened. Ling Yu must have used the previous night to absorb the Life Juice Source and completely transformed in one night.

Ling Yu had the foundation laid by the sect in the first place, as well as a Great Desolate Eon bloodline. Furthermore, this was his first time using the golden Life Juice Source.

Hence, the effects were miraculous. It was just one night, but the results made one’s eyes light up.

If Ling Yu had a few more days to finish absorbing all the Life Juice Source in his body, his strength would definitely improve further, boosting his combat prowess significantly.

In contrast to a regular disciple, this was what a genius disciple could bring out, ten times—even one hundred times—the effect with just a small fortuitous encounter.

Xiao Chen collected his thoughts and looked at the rubble. Then, he asked, “What happened before I fainted?”

Ling Yu shook his head and replied, “I don’t know. I was patrolling the area for you when I heard a loud sound. Then, the cultivation room crumbled as a terrifying dragon roar rang out. Fortunately, Master managed to suppress this shocking mysterious phenomenon.

“Otherwise, it would have startled everyone in the sect.”

I owe Senior Brother another favor. Xiao Chen felt warmth in his heart. He knew how horrifying the consequences would be if his Azure Dragon bloodline got exposed prematurely.

It would be even more terrifying than the Black Lotus Church.

However, Xiao Chen was rather curious about what happened at the last moment.

He had thought that he was dead for sure, his consciousness wiped when he woke up. However, the situation did not seem quite right. He was still living properly.

Xiao Chen’s hands and feet had not changed, his body had not changed, his consciousness was still there, his soul…

His soul…seemed to be even stronger.

“Martial Uncle, did you succeed?” Ling Yu asked, unable to contain his excitement.

Ling Yu really wanted to take a look at his Martial Uncle’s Great Desolate Eon bloodline. What would it be like after it was activated?

Right, there’s no need to care so much about that now. Let’s see if the bloodline activation succeeded or not.

Xiao Chen focused. He really wanted to know the results of his efforts as well.

With a thought, Xiao Chen’s black eyes instantly turned bright and golden.

Xiao Chen’s entire body gave off a deep azure light as well as an ancient aura that had existed since time immemorial.

A formidable aura from the Great Desolate Eon spread out from Xiao Chen’s body. In the next moment, his golden eyes turned into azure-colored dragon eyes with a spot of extremely resplendent scarlet light in the depths of his pupils.

Strange, mysterious, proud, arrogant, brutal, and strong!

An irritable emotion took root in Xiao Chen as power flooded his entire body. There was a feeling that human lives were no more valuable than grass, as if everything in the world was like an ant. Under the vast heavens, in the expansive universe, there was nothing worth pursuing.

Boundless loneliness swamped Xiao Chen’s heart. What in the world can get this king to look at it properly?

The instant Xiao Chen activated his bloodline, Ling Yu, who was at the side, immediately regretted it.

Ling Yu had been prepared to activate his own Astral Roc bloodline the moment Xiao Chen activated his bloodline.

However, Ling Yu felt strong, nearly unbearable pressure while standing before Xiao Chen.

Ling Yu even found it extremely hard to speak.

Fortunately, Xiao Chen lasted for only a moment in this state before he silently dismissed it.

When Xiao Chen returned to his normal state, he felt an exceptionally strong sense of unreality. In that earlier moment, it was like he had become another person.

Although Xiao Chen’s thoughts were clear, and he had command of his body, he did not have many thoughts. It was hard to shake off the feeling that he did not have control.

Was this the true nature of the ancient Azure Dragon?

Although the sky was vast, there were none among the ten thousand rivals that could get the Azure Dragon to look at them straight in the eyes.

Xiao Chen felt afraid. Such a mental state was not good. If he really held such a mental state and sought trouble with Cloud Sea cultivators, he would be taught an unsightly lesson.

“Martial Uncle, your bloodline is really too horrifying,” Ling Yu said with lingering fear in his heart. “However, the stronger the bloodline, the greater the burden you will bear after using it. Martial Uncle, you should use it as little as possible—”

“Bang!”

Before Ling Yu could finish speaking, Xiao Chen fell back without any sign of consciousness at all, fainting again.

“Martial Uncle, I’m not finished yet.” Ling Yu smiled bitterly, feeling helpless.

This time, Xiao Chen slept for three days, only opening his eyes after that.

All of Xiao Chen’s discomfort had vanished. He felt refreshed, his entire body invigorated.

In the past three days, Xiao Chen’s body had finished adjusting to the changes that the dragonification had brought that day.

He did not know that his body had turned into that of a dragon previously, improving his physique by another level.

“Ao Jiao, how long did I sleep?” Xiao Chen asked after he washed up.

Not too much, not too little. Just nice, three days, Ao Jiao answered honestly.

“Oh!”

Xiao Chen went out to the backyard alone.

He sat down cross-legged and carefully sensed the changes to his body. He was surprised to find that his Vital Qi had actually increased to four Cauldron Force.

“This is strange,” Xiao Chen muttered as he opened his eyes. The various scenes of his dragonification from that day appeared in his mind.

He simply could not figure out what had dragged him back from the gates of hell when he had clearly felt that ancient spirit completely dominating his physical body.

When I have time, I have to go and ask Senior Brother.

Ye Zifeng, who had been monitoring the entire situation, should know much more than Ling Yu. However, Ye Zifeng was definitely not in a good state at the moment, so it was not convenient to interrupt him.

“Martial Uncle Ling Yu, there’s a problem! There’s a big problem!”

Just at this moment, an anxious figure shouted from outside as he rushed inside in a fluster, charging in without a greeting.

This was a young Purple Flame Sect disciple wearing gray robes. His cultivation was pretty good, even higher than Ling Yu’s.

However, at this moment, this person appeared anxious and panicky.

The instant the gray-robed disciple entered, he was stunned to see Xiao Chen. “Who are you? Why are you in Martial Uncle’s courtyard?”

Just at this moment, Ling Yu came out from a side room and demanded proudly in a calm tone, “Why are you so flustered? Speak properly. He is my martial uncle!”

This stunned Xiao Chen slightly. At this moment, Ling Yu’s expression and air were back to how it had been when he first saw Ling Yu in the Pirate Hall.

Ling Yu radiated sharpness and an unconcealable pride.

With such a strong air, no one would dare to underestimate Ling Yu after taking one glance at him.

Martial Uncle’s martial uncle? How do I address him?

Martial Grand Uncle? However, is there a Martial Grand Uncle in the Purple Flame Sect? This question immediately confused that person.

“Why are you standing there like a fool? What is it? Quickly say it!”

The gray-clad disciple came back to his senses. He promptly said, “Martial Uncle, the Divine Firmament Sect’s Little Thunder Saber Feng Yu led its core disciples over again. Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Lan, and the others were defeated already. Now, only Senior Sister Bai is left still fighting.”

“Damn! That bastard again! His Purple Thunder Seven Strikes must have improved again. Why did you not tell me earlier?!”

When Ling Yu started to get angry, the gray-clad disciple whispered, “Martial Uncle, you instructed us not to interrupt you, as you were going into closed-door cultivation. Hence, the various senior brothers and senior sisters went to deal with the situation first, so as not to trouble Martial Uncle.”

Ling Yu’s face sank. He had indeed given that instruction. He had been absorbing and refining the Life Juice Source and could not be interrupted.

“Never mind, I forgot. Bring me over now. I hope that group of bastards did not go overboard.”

Worry appeared on Ling Yu’s face. Without a word to Xiao Chen, he left in a rush.

Xiao Chen had heard everything from the start. He found it rather strange and did not understand any of it.

After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Chen followed, his figure disappearing in a flash.
