His dragon claw, covered in scales, struck out fiercely once more.
“Then I’ll up the ante!”
The power of Lin Yun’s charging sword surged dramatically in an instant.
This was the formidable strength unleashed by the late Chaos Body!
As the might of Lin Yun’s sword skyrocketed, their attacks collided in a flash.
Bang!
The clash erupted with terrifying force, like a volcanic explosion, causing Ao Qirui’s expression to change drastically as he was pushed back again by the fearsome power!
“Again! Again! Again!”
Lin Yun’s sword transformed into several sharp sword shadows, carrying ferocious and volatile power, relentlessly attacking Ao Qirui.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ao Qirui continuously swung his dragon claw to fend off Lin Yun’s formidable assaults, but he was steadily retreating.
Each collision produced terrifying shockwaves that swept across the martial arena, with sword light flashing and their figures weaving like lightning.
Ao Qirui was now completely on the defensive.
“What ferocious power!”
The repeated intense clashes left the watching dragon clan members gasping in awe.
“A human at the Third Stage Eternal Realm unleashing such power—this lad is truly fierce,” one dragon clan elder couldn’t help but exclaim.
On the arena.
The fierce battle raged on!
Ao Qirui’s face was grim. With so many dragon clan members watching, being pushed into a disadvantage was deeply humiliating.
“Unless you use some serious techniques, you won’t know the true might of our dragon clan!”
After another clash, as Ao Qirui retreated, he transformed into his dragon form.
Fighting in human form limited his strength. Against an ordinary Third Stage Eternal Realm opponent, he could easily win even in human form.
But under the pressure of Lin Yun’s overwhelming power, even at full strength in human form, he couldn’t turn the tide.
“He’s forced Ao Qirui to transform into his dragon form.”
Many dragon clan members sighed in surprise, having expected Ao Qirui to defeat Lin Yun in human form.
“Once Ao Qirui reverts to dragon form, the situation changes. This lad has performed impressively to push him this far, but it won’t change his impending defeat,” the West Sea Dragon Palace Grand Elder said.
“Indeed, in dragon form, Ao Qirui can fully unleash his true strength. This lad’s in trouble now,” the Third Elder of the West Sea Dragon Palace remarked.
“I hope the rascal has a chance. I wonder what other cards he has up his sleeve…” Little Green Dragon stared intently at the arena, feeling uneasy.
Little Green Dragon knew that Ao Qirui in dragon form could truly showcase the dragon clan’s might.
He was also unsure of Lin Yun’s current techniques and trump cards.
On the arena.
In his true dragon form, Ao Qirui hovered a hundred metres above the arena, looking down at Lin Yun.
In dragon form, Ao Qirui’s body stretched hundreds of metres, a colossal presence.
Dragons could shift in size—large or small, soaring or diving, visible or hidden.
Large, they summoned clouds and mist; small, they concealed themselves in mustard seeds. They soared between the cosmos or hid within the waves.
Normally, they didn’t grow so large, but for full combat, expanding like this made them far more ferocious!
“Human lad, I intended to defeat you in human form.”
“But you’re stronger than I expected. Forcing me to revert to dragon form—I must admit, you’re impressive.”
“Sadly, it changes nothing. Let’s end this. I won’t let you win!” Ao Qirui’s voice boomed.
“Roar! Roar!”
Ao Qirui unleashed a deafening dragon roar.
The ear-splitting sound made Lin Yun’s body tremble, his blood flow slowing as if suppressed by the dragon’s overwhelming pressure!
After the roar, Ao Qirui charged at Lin Yun, his massive, scale-and-spike-covered dragon tail sweeping fiercely towards him!
Rumble.
The tail sweep shook the entire martial arena, churning the waves.
The tail, seemingly slow, moved with astonishing speed, reaching Lin Yun in an instant.
“Come on!”
Facing Ao Qirui’s ferocious attack, Lin Yun showed no intention of retreating!
“Shadow Sword Technique, Eleventh Form!”
Lin Yun’s galaxy-like inner energy surged like a torrential flood, converging onto his sword, which gleamed with golden light.
Lin Yun had to unleash the Shadow Sword Technique’s Eleventh Form.
His sword swept out, transforming into a massive golden arc that clashed fiercely with the sweeping dragon tail.
Boom!
The golden arc and dragon tail collided, sending shockwaves that stirred monstrous waves, distorting the underwater space.
This time, neither gained the upper hand!
Before transforming, Ao Qirui was outmatched by Lin Yun. In dragon form, his strength soared, but Lin Yun had escalated to the Shadow Sword Technique’s Eleventh Form!
“They’re… evenly matched?”
The scene left countless dragon clan members gasping in shock.
Ao Qirui was in dragon form, yet this human lad could still hold his own?
Normally, a human Third Stage Eternal Realm cultivator would be shattered by such an attack!
But Lin Yun’s offense and defense had reached an astonishing level!
“Lad, I’ve underestimated you!” Seeing Lin Yun block his attack, Ao Qirui’s eyes grew serious.
He now realised he had still underestimated this human.
“To be honest, you’re strong too,” Lin Yun said with a slight smile.
“But to earn the position, you must defeat me. Even if you can match me now, you still can’t win. At the Third Stage Eternal Realm, reaching this level, I don’t believe you have any more game-changing techniques!” Ao Qirui’s voice resounded.
“I understand that point, of course. Techniques? I certainly have more!” Lin Yun’s lips curved upward, his dark eyes blazing with wild battle intent.
