Chapter 352: Chapter 351 Dragon Vein Power_1
"It’s the Dragon Vein Incarnation!"
The many warriors, who were originally panicked and disoriented, exulted at the sight of this earthen-yellow giant dragon phantom.
They hadn’t expected that the Dragon Vein Qi, suppressed by the Martial Arts Monument, would appear at this critical moment and drive back the Black and White Holy Envoys!
The aura of this Dragon Vein Incarnation was extremely strong, casually flinging aside the two Top Sky Apex Strong as if they were nothing.
Even the widely renowned Black and White Holy Envoys were no match, completely unable to resist!
Shentu Yan watched the Dragon Vein Incarnation charging towards him, and a hint of joy suddenly flashed in his eyes. He immediately roared, "Dragon Vein Power, assist me in exterminating the Evil Cultivators!"
However, despite his loud bellow, the Dragon Vein Incarnation did not stop to support him. Instead, it swept past over his head.
"What?"
His expression froze. Shentu Yan turned his head, only to see the Dragon Vein Incarnation flying towards Ling Chen, who was not far away, and pouring directly into the crown of his head.
Ling Chen had no time to evade and could only accept the infusion of Dragon Vein Power. Immediately, an immensely powerful energy surged into Ling Chen’s body.
CRACKLE! CRACKLE!
In that instant, it was as if a crackling sound erupted from within Ling Chen’s body. All his joints were being squeezed, creaking as if they were about to disintegrate.
"Damn it, I’m going to die!"
Ling Chen felt as if his body was about to explode. This Dragon Vein Power is too overbearing; ordinary people simply can’t withstand it. Even my current body can’t control this power.
"Humph! Dragon Vein Power? How could a brat who isn’t even a Grand Master subdue it? Go on, explode and die!"
Sikong Yi sneered, as if he had already predicted this outcome. He was just waiting to see Ling Chen’s body burst from the power, after which he would claim the Dragon Vein Power for himself.
Dragon Vein Power was the most supreme power in the world. If one could absorb even a part of it, their strength would benefit astonishingly.
「Meanwhile, outside the venue, on the top floor of the Thunder Roar Tavern.」
With four whooshing sounds as air was broken, four figures appeared one after another atop the tavern.
These four people consisted of three men and one woman. The men were strikingly valiant, while the woman was as beautiful as a celestial fairy. All four wore Dou Li, their robes fluttering in the fierce wind.
Their gazes were all fixed on the location of the Martial Arts Meet. A dark cloud shrouded the area, with lightning flashing and thunder rumbling continuously, striking down from the sky. The Heavenly Earth Energy there was exceptionally chaotic.
"From the looks of it, an accident seems to have occurred at the Martial Arts Meet," a young man in a white robe remarked, his gaze slightly narrowed as he observed the venue.
"I think I faintly sense a trace of Demon Way energy... Could members of the Demonic Sect have come?" The only woman among them lifted her head, revealing a beautiful and captivating face. It was none other than Liu Feiyue, who had previously saved Ling Chen.
"The Demon Way dares to attack this place? That’s quite brazen." The speaker was a cold-faced young man in black, carrying a Long Spear on his back. His temperament was cold, and his actual age was indiscernible from his appearance.
"The situation might be dire. We must go and provide support immediately!"
The one who appeared to be the eldest among them spoke. This person was gentle and refined as jade, a modest gentleman with a heroic demeanor.
As soon as his words fell, the four figures flickered and vanished from the tavern’s rooftop.
...
SSSS!
At this moment, Ling Chen’s entire body had begun to swell, his flesh bulging in sections, looking utterly terrifying.
"Great Elder, please save Brother Ling Chen!" Ling Yin cried out, clutching Shangguan Hong’s sleeve, her voice desperate and on the verge of tears.
"Alas, I am powerless." Shangguan Hong shook his head and sighed. If I could save Ling Chen, I wouldn’t hesitate. "No one can help him now. To survive this ordeal, he must rely entirely on himself."
Just as Ling Chen felt his body expanding, on the verge of exploding, a gentle, warm current suddenly seeped into his body from the region of his heart and quickly spread throughout his system.
Wherever this gentle warmth passed, the terrifyingly overbearing power that had threatened to burst his body miraculously subsided.
The Dragon Vein Power was incredibly potent; even when suppressed, it still roiled violently. At this moment, another hidden power emerged from deep within Ling Chen’s body. It was like wisps of black mist spreading out, carrying an intense corrosiveness. Even the Dragon Vein Power was significantly eroded by this corrosive force.
As the black mist disintegrated the Dragon Vein Power from within, the warm current was finally able to suppress it completely.
As the agonizing, heart-rending pain vanished, Ling Chen’s mind finally regained clarity. He sensed that this warm current was indeed the power emanating from the Blood Jade.
This Blood Jade has saved my life again, Ling Chen inwardly rejoiced. This mysterious Blood Jade has saved me several times now. It’s absolutely a peerless, world-class treasure!
Strange. Besides the Blood Jade, another hidden power suddenly appeared just now and helped suppress the Dragon Vein Power.
Ling Chen was somewhat perplexed. He was accustomed to the power of the Blood Jade, but this other power was one he had never encountered before, yet... it felt somewhat familiar.
It’s the Heavenly Shadow Poison!
Suddenly, Ling Chen’s eyes lit up as a realization struck him, his expression changing abruptly. That power was none other than the Heavenly Shadow Poison that Liu Xiling planted in me back on Ghost Fog Mountain!
Back when I was afflicted by the Heavenly Shadow Poison, I was certain to die. However, the power of the Blood Jade neutralized most of it. Even so, a portion of the Heavenly Shadow Poison remained, not fully dispelled, but lying dormant within my body. So much time has passed without it acting up that I had almost forgotten about it. This Heavenly Shadow Poison, which was originally meant to kill me, has unexpectedly become my savior now.
Ling Chen took a deep breath, a hint of joy rising in his heart. Even Liu Xiling probably never imagined such an outcome.
"He succeeded!"
A look of delighted surprise appeared on Shangguan Hong’s face. Ling Chen actually managed to suppress the Dragon Vein Power!
"What? That brat actually withstood it?"
Seeing this, Sikong Yi, who was hovering in mid-air, saw his expression change dramatically. The Dragon Vein Power is so potent that even Top Sky Apex Strong like us find it difficult to tame. How did Ling Chen, a mere 9th-Level Martial Artist, accomplish this?
"Why waste time thinking about it? Just kill him!"
Nearby, the Heartbroken Elder drew his pitch-black Sad Bow and aimed an arrow at Ling Chen. The vast True Qi, unique to the Sky Apex Realm, was poured into the Ruthless Arrow. WHOOSH! Like a black streak of light, it shot violently towards the space between Ling Chen’s eyebrows!
As long as Ling Chen is killed, the Dragon Vein Power will be released again!
