Chapter 77 Dragon Nine Forms!

Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Dragon Nine Forms!

Nan Cheng had received information that Luo Cheng was merely at the Third Layer of the Transcendence Realm, a useless person who had awakened a Wasted Martial Soul!

It wasn’t until the moment of death that he realized how absurdly wrong all of this was!

Unfortunately, some mistakes leave no room for regret.

“That’s it? Dead just like that?”

Luo Cheng looked at the corpse, somewhat regretful.

Just now, the opponent mentioned many people were looking for him, which piqued Luo Cheng’s curiosity. As a result, he intentionally held back his strength during the strike, wanting to leave someone alive.

Who would have thought the opponent was even weaker than Luo Cheng imagined? A common punch killed him instantly!

“Demanding I take my own life right off the bat, I thought he’d be stronger.”

Luo Cheng shook his head and stained his Identity Token with a drop of Nan Cheng’s fresh blood.

Instantly, the token displayed the number five!

“Five points, not bad.”

Luo Cheng’s expression revealed satisfaction.

These five points were the accumulated competition points Nan Cheng had earned, which now conveniently became Luo Cheng’s spoils.

After thoroughly looting everything on Nan Cheng’s body, Luo Cheng immediately began to devour the Martial Soul.

Hum!

A green glow radiated as a small blade-like grass containing five shining stars emerged from Nan Cheng’s body, brimming with Spiritual Energy.

“So it’s a Five-star Martial Soul. No wonder he was so arrogant…”

Seeing Nan Cheng’s Martial Soul, Luo Cheng murmured.

Servant disciples typically awakened Three-star Martial Souls, while Four-star ones were quite rare!

A Five-star Martial Soul was already exceptionally outstanding.

Hum!

As the Martial Soul was devoured, the Dragon Energy within the Essence Energy Vortex quivered. The two protrusions on the Dragon Energy’s head became more pronounced, seemingly on the verge of opening at any moment!

This Martial Soul had an effect far more significant than the six or seven Beast Souls he devoured earlier!

“Devouring Martial Souls aids the True Dragon Technique much more effectively than devouring Beast Souls!”

Luo Cheng couldn’t help but feel a surge of murderous, devouring intent rise within him.

Shaking his head, Luo Cheng dismissed this ridiculous thought. He had no desire to become a killing maniac.

With a flash of his figure, Luo Cheng dashed deeper into the forest.

Qingyun Island was filled with chaotic primal forestlands. Located within the Xuanyuan Sect’s domain, it forbids outside interference except during the annual Green Cloud Trial. Coupled with the Xuanyuan Sect’s management, the island had naturally become a paradise for Demon Beasts.

Now, this had also become Luo Cheng’s sacred training ground!

Within just two hours, Luo Cheng killed over twenty One-star Demon Beasts and a dozen Two-star Demon Beasts!

This relentless slaughter and devouring caused Luo Cheng’s strength to skyrocket rapidly. His power exceeded the Five Tiger Power threshold, now reaching around twenty-six or twenty-seven thousand pounds!

At this pace of cultivation, Luo Cheng was confident he could break through to the Third Stage of Tongxuan Realm within two months!

After devouring the Beast Soul of another Two-star Demon Beast, Luo Cheng noticed that a thin crack had appeared in the eyes of the Dragon Energy within the Essence Energy Vortex, emitting faint rays of brilliance.

“It’s close!”

Noticing the changes in the Dragon Energy, Luo Cheng felt exhilarated!

The Nine Transformations of the Dragon Energy in the True Dragon Technique corresponded to the Dragon Nine Forms!

Serpentine body, rabbit eyes, camel head, clam belly, fish scales, tiger paws, eagle claws, ox ears, and deer antlers!

The True Dragon Technique’s Second Level was the second transformation of Dragon Energy, giving rise to a pair of rabbit-like eyes on the Dragon Energy!

Luo Cheng estimated that he would need to devour thirty to forty more Two-star Demon Beasts to break through the Second Level of the True Dragon Technique!

“I wonder how my points rank now. Am I in the top ten?”

Despite Luo Cheng’s quick pace in hunting Demon Beasts, there were still dozens of participants in the Green Cloud Trial who were at the Fifth Layer of the Transcendence Realm. The competition was fierce, and entering the top ten was no easy task.

“Let’s keep going!”

After a brief rest, Luo Cheng advanced further.

Along the way, Luo Cheng killed another few low-level Two-star Demon Beasts.

During his journey, he came across three corpses!

These three individuals were clad in Xuanyuan Sect servant disciple uniforms, but their bodies were completely unrecognizable, clearly having been killed by Demon Beasts!

Seeing this, Luo Cheng felt a pang of sorrow—indeed, the path of Martial Arts was thorny and brutal. Every strong warrior had to carve their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

At the same time, Luo Cheng grew more vigilant.

With his current strength, encountering a Two-star Top Level Demon Beast would still be extremely dangerous.

A Two-star Top Level Demon Beast was equivalent to a Sixth Layer Transcendence Realm Martial Artist.

A Sixth Layer Transcendence Realm cultivator had refined their body to its peak, with vitality like a raging fire, clarity of spirit, and the strength of three Barbaric Elephants—equivalent to seventy-five thousand pounds. Such an opponent was no small matter! He was far from being a match for them now!

Just after passing the corpses, Luo Cheng suddenly stopped.

“Sounds of fighting!”

After cultivating the True Dragon Technique, Luo Cheng’s perception had become increasingly acute. He now detected the sounds of combat a few hundred meters away in the dense forest.

After some hesitation, Luo Cheng headed toward the noise.

In front lay a patch of dense forest. Through the gaps, he could barely discern human figures flickering in the distance, accompanied by occasional beastly roars.

Luo Cheng approached a large boulder, peeking over to take a look.

In the middle of the forest was a clearing spanning a dozen or so meters in diameter.

At the moment, the clearing was in complete chaos.

Five Demon Beasts had surrounded a young man and woman, both of whom were servant disciples.

These five Demon Beasts were massive, resembling jackals. Their glossy black fur exuded a sinister aura, and their breaths spewed out clouds of black mist. Wherever the mist touched, vegetation withered instantly.

Luo Cheng recognized them as Black Mist Wolves, Intermediate Two-star Demon Beasts. Their overall strength was not particularly high, comparable to that of Third Layer Transcendence Realm cultivators.

However, the Black Mist Wolves’ bodies were riddled with poison, and they preferred to hunt in packs. Without proper preparation, even Fifth Layer Transcendence Realm cultivators would fall victim to their venom.

The man and woman weren’t weak, both at the Fourth Layer of the Transcendence Realm.

However, their faces were pale with a bluish-purple hue, clearly poisoned by the mist. With only thirty to forty percent of their strength remaining, they were in a perilous situation.

“Sister Shang, it seems our lives end here today!”

The blue-clad youth let out a despairing sigh.

At that moment.

A figure charged into the clearing, heading straight for the two nearest Black Mist Wolves.

Roar!

The Black Mist Wolves immediately noticed the intruder and turned to attack, but the newcomer was even faster.

Bam! Bam! With two thundering blows, the two Black Mist Wolves let out mournful howls as their massive bodies were flung like ragdolls, crashing to the ground with their internal organs shattered!

“Kill!”

The blue-clad youth hesitated for a moment before springing into action. His blade danced forth in a flurry of light, severing the head of the Black Mist Wolf before him.

The remaining two Black Mist Wolves howled mournfully before fleeing into the depths of the forest in terror, vanishing within moments.

Recovering from the brush with death, the blue-clad youth exhaled heavily, cupping his hands toward Luo Cheng. “Thank you for saving our lives!”

“It was nothing.”

Luo Cheng’s expression remained calm.

Since they all were servant disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect, he naturally would not stand idly by.

Pfft!

At that moment, the red-clad woman trembled violently, coughing up a dark, blood-tinged spurt before collapsing to the ground.

“Sister Shang, take the Detoxification Pill quickly!”

The blue-clad youth hurriedly supported her, feeding her a pill before swallowing one himself.

Luo Cheng frowned and said, “Focus on detoxifying. I will stand guard here.”

“Thank you!”

The blue-clad youth looked at him gratefully.

The two were still severely poisoned, their combat strength now less than thirty percent. Any Two-star Demon Beast could easily end their lives.

Not daring to waste any time, the pair began meditating to expel the toxin.

Looking at the Black Mist Wolves’ corpses, Luo Cheng sighed inwardly in regret.

Unable to devour the Beast Souls, Luo Cheng simply took a seat nearby and activated the True Dragon Technique to digest his earlier gains.

After half a tea’s time, the blue-clad youth and his female companion’s complexion returned to normal, and they stood up.

“Senior brother, my name is Zhou Jinchuan. Thank you so much earlier. If not for you, Junior Sister Huang Shang and I would surely have died here. May I have the honor of knowing your name?”

The blue-clad youth, Zhou Jinchuan, cupped his hands toward Luo Cheng.

The delicate and refined Huang Shang also looked at him with deep gratitude.

Luo Cheng said calmly, “It was nothing. My name is Luo Cheng.”

“Luo Cheng!”

Hearing his response, both of their expressions subtly changed.

Huang Shang stared at Luo Cheng, her eyes flickering with a peculiar light.
