Long Ao’s strength doubled, and each punch of his was akin to the charge of a true dragon. He was demonstrating the strength of an actual Nine Revolutions Realm expert, a strength not everyone could withstand.
Xiang Shaoyun did not use more trump cards. Rather, he met his opponent head on. As fist clashed against fist repeatedly, he bled profusely from his knuckles. Even his bones became visible, and he was slowly being pushed back.
Of course, Long Ao wasn’t perfectly fine either. His knuckles were also a bloody mess as Xiang Shaoyun’s fists weren’t much weaker than his. More importantly, Long Ao hadn’t been able to damage Xiang Shaoyun’s vitals because Xiang Shaoyun was too fast, always capable of dodging the moment he attacked.
“Is this all you have?” said Xiang Shaoyun with a sneer as he defended against an incoming blow.
“Hmph. For daring to look down on me, you will die miserably!” said Long Ao coldly. Thicker scales covered his arms as his strength increased even more. Carrying an indescribable baleful aura, his fists shot forth, giving Xiang Shaoyun even more pressure than before.
Xiang Shaoyun did not hold anything back and gathered his primal inception energy around his fists. He used the Three Lives Fist repeatedly, unleashing his stunning self-created technique. Additionally, Xiang Shaoyun also fused his battle intent into his fists, causing the unyielding aura around him to soar. Again and again, he clashed against Long Ao.
Fists, palms, and legs were all used as the two fought in a barbaric manner. Their arms were ridden with wounds, and both parties also had many injuries all over their bodies, which spilled a large amount of blood around them. The onlookers were all dumbstruck as they watched the ongoing battle.
If the previous battles were described as spectacular and intense, the current battle was basically a primal fight for one’s life. The aliens knew that Long Ao grew up soaking in the blood of true dragons. His body was already as strong as the body of a true dragon. Among the many aliens, he had the strongest physical body. Thus, they were all shocked to see this human clashing against him head on without suffering any disadvantage.
“How did this human grow up? Why is he so strong? This isn’t an illusion, right?”
“Humans are born weak, but they are smart. Perhaps he had used some trick to gain such strength. Nevertheless, he will never be Lord Long Ao’s match.”
“That human can’t be another Primal Chaos Physique owner, right? Look at his attacks. They’re all so colorful. It’s the same as the previous human with only a slight difference.”
“It doesn’t matter. He must die. Otherwise, he will be an even harder opponent after he reaches the ninth stage.”
…
Xiang Shaoyun could already sense the opportunity to break through, but unfortunately, he still didn’t feel enough pressure to complete the breakthrough.
Do I really need to force a Nine Revolutions Realm expert to fight me before I can break through? thought Xiang Shaoyun as he decided to finally defeat Long Ao and force out an even stronger opponent.
Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes narrowed as two rays of light shot out of his eyes. Not even Long Ao and his scales could stop that attack. Long Ao started losing his life force.
Life Strip!
That was the ultimate destruction skill of the primal inception profundity, the sole power that could easily threaten any God Realm expert. Long Ao panicked. His life force was dropping rapidly, and even his control over his strength weakened.
Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to utilize the dao of time, pausing time itself. Long Ao was frozen in time, completely unable to withstand the move. Xiang Shaoyun then unleashed hell upon Long Ao.
His fist rammed into Long Ao’s head, smashing the tough dragon head apart, revealing an energy crystal. That was Long Ao’s origin power. If the crystal was smashed, Long Ao would die. Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to grab the crystal, a powerful dragon soul shot out of the crystal.
Roar!
The roar was terrifying, causing Xiang Shaoyun to turn sluggish for a moment. The soul took the chance to dive into his head, aiming for his soul. Even a Nine Revolutions Realm expert would be killed if one was hit by the attack in a moment of carelessness.
“Haha, no matter how strong your body is, you will still be dead after I devour your soul,” said Long Ao in excitement.
This was a move that had killed many of his opponents. His dragon soul was much stronger than his main body.
“The victor has been decided,” said the strongest young alien.
A different alien said, “That fellow should be proud that he had managed to force this move out of Long Ao.”
Just as everyone was assured of Xiang Shaoyun’s death, Long Ao’s body suddenly exploded. Then, right before everyone’s eyes, Xiang Shaoyun extracted Long Ao’s dragon blood. After all, dragon blood of such quality was akin to a top-tier god-grade herb. All the onlookers were stunned.
What happened? Hadn’t Xiang Shaoyun been devoured by the dragon soul? Was that not the case?
Of course that wasn’t the case.
Long Ao’s dragon soul might be powerful, but entering Xiang Shaoyun’s head was the same as entering his Imperial Nether Domain. Thus, Long Ao’s dragon soul was easily defeated by Xiang Shaoyun’s soul.
Naturally, Xiang Shaoyun was unwilling to just kill an expert as capable as Long Ao. He merely scattered the dragon soul before controlling it with his Nether Dragon Soul Curse, which didn’t take him much time.
The only reason he had destroyed Long Ao’s body was so that he could force an even stronger alien to face him. Long Ao’s dragon crystal had naturally landed in Xiang Shaoyun’s hand. With the crystal, Long Ao could easily regrow his entire body. Thus, the destruction of his body wouldn’t affect him much.
The humans erupted with excitement at Long Ao’s defeat.
“He won! Young Master Xiang won! He’s too strong!”
“Yeah. That dragonkin feels much stronger than the previous aliens, but Young Master Xiang was actually able to defeat him. He’s too strong!”
“Worthy of being Lord Ge Yi’s disciple. His combat prowess is astonishing.”
“If both he and Dugu Qiubai manage to enter the Nine Revolutions Realm, that will be a blessing to the dominion.”
…
With Long Ao’s capture, an alien roared furiously, “Release the dragon prince, or I’ll kill you!”
A ninth-stage God charged out suddenly. That alien wielded a long scythe and swung at Xiang Shaoyun from afar. A terrifying ray slashed toward Xiang Shaoyun, instantly arriving before him.
Xiang Shaoyun merely raised his hand and crushed the ray. He said, “Who do you think you are? Your attack isn’t even fit to scratch my itch!”
