Chapter 630: Chapter 306: Xuanlong Technique Second Layer! Battlefield Center!
Luo Cheng looked at the nine corpses before him, his brow deeply furrowed.
These people had clearly just died recently; seven of them were disciples of the Inner Sect of the Fierce Cloud Sect, personally slain by him, their bodies still retained some residual warmth.
Logically, in such a short time, there shouldnāt be any loss of their essence qi.
Yet the fact remains that the essence qi of the seven disciples from the Fierce Cloud Sect had already partially dissipated!
As for the two disciples of the Blood Nether Sect, it was even more exaggerated; their essence qi had dissipated by at least thirty or forty percent!
āCould those corpses also beā¦ā
Luo Cheng recalled the corpses whose essence qi had previously dissipated greatly.
He originally thought someone else had cultivated a technique to refine essence blood and got there first.
Or perhaps it was the disciples of the Blood Nether Sect.
The disciples of the Blood Nether Sect are known for their ability to refine human essence blood to stimulate their potential, this has long been no secret.
But now, it seems thatās not the case!
Steeling his mind, Luo Cheng immediately released his soul power fully, carefully sensing.
āStrange!ā
A moment later, Luo Cheng opened his eyes, staring at the bloodstains on the ground, his gaze somewhat peculiar.
In his soul perception, the corpses continually emanated strands of blood-colored essence qi.
This blood-colored essence qi, barely perceptible, seeped into the depths of the earth and then, as if attracted by some force, all began flowing in the same direction!
Luo Cheng wanted to trace this back to its source and figure out what kind of mystery lay behind it.
However, penetrating the earth with soul power was already extremely difficult, and here in the Black Cloud Mountain Range, the earth was filled with various chaotic auras, making penetration even harder.
With the strength of Luo Chengās soul power, even when exerted to the full, it could only radiate a little over a thousand meters into the earth before reaching its limit, unable to advance further.
Even though he didnāt find the source behind this, Luo Cheng made another astounding discovery.
Beneath the earth, strands of blood qi, like streams converging, flowed like a river towards the same direction from all directions.
This direction was the mountain peak that Chen Lingyu had previously pointed at!
It was also the core of the Blood Nether Sectās stronghold.
Luo Cheng looked up at that mountain peak.
All he could see was the whole sky filled with murderous aura, thunder and lightning flashing, even from such a distance, the sounds of fierce battle and cries of battle were clearly audible!
āI wonder what is really hidden thereā¦ā
Luo Cheng felt inexplicably heavy-hearted, with a nagging feeling that this siege on the Blood Nether Sectās stronghold might not go as smoothly as hoped.
āForget it, itās better to cultivate first and strive to raise the Xuanlong Technique to the second level of the realm!ā
Right now, overthinking wouldnāt help; the only way was to improve his strength as much as possible to adapt to any change.
If the Xuanlong Technique could break through to the second level, he would unleash double the battle power, providing much more self-protection even if anything unexpected occurred.
The essence blood of the corpses was dissipating by the moment, so Luo Cheng did not delay any further, sitting cross-legged and starting to devour it directly.
Roar!
A dragonās roar reverberated, except for the two disciples of the Blood Nether Sect who had lost too much essence blood, unable to condense a martial soul.
The martial souls of the seven disciples from the Fierce Cloud Sect were all successfully stripped away, rushing into Luo Chengās body.
Rumble!
Seven streams of martial soul essence, including Chi Hengzhiās Seven-star Martial Soul, even though part of it had dissipated, the essence gathered was astonishingly strong, like a raging flood, rushing through Luo Chengās body meridians into his dantian!
Under Luo Chengās guidance, the martial soul essence continuously surged towards the Essence Energy Mansion that already had a form resembling that of a dragon, some seven to eight parts formed.
This caused the hidden speed of the Essence Energy Mansion to accelerate; with each spiral, the scales on its body became more real and spirited, as if the closed dragon eyes might open at any moment!
Seven parts resemblance!
Eight parts!
Nine parts!
Finally.
Roar!
A resonant dragon roar erupted from Luo Chengās dantian, as the second dragon-shaped Essence Energy Mansion completed its transformation, the dragonās eyes opened, shining with a divine light, like a True Dragon soaring through clouds!
At this moment.
Buzz!
A surge of tremendous qi force emanated from Luo Cheng, sweeping across the entire valley, the air trembling like water.
āFinally broke through!ā
Luo Cheng opened his eyes, immensely joyful, immediately activating the two dragon-shaped Essence Energy Mansions within him.
Roar!
Accompanied by the dragonās roar, the two dragon-shaped Essence Energy Mansions spun rapidly.
Instantly, the essence energy within Luo Cheng surged both in quantity and quality, fully exceeding the previous limit, doubling what it used to be!
Looking at a small mound ahead, Luo Cheng unleashed a punch directly.
Rumble!
The condensed fist power flashed through the valley, and the small mound disappeared without a trace, leaving only a giant fist imprint several meters deep!
āThis is double the battle power! A casual punch nearly equals my usual full-force strike!ā
Luo Cheng was incredibly shocked.
Back when he fought Yu Lanxin, if he had succeeded in the second level of Xuanlong Technique, he wouldnāt have struggled so much, just a few moves would have decided the outcome!
Maybe even just one move!
In a great mood, Luo Cheng immediately put away the Xuanlong Technique, immediately feeling a sense of emptiness.
In these short moments, quite a bit of his essence energy had been consumed.
The Xuanlong Techniqueās second level is indeed tremendously powerful.
However, the consumption also becomes greater.
āBut itās not bad; after all, being able to unleash double battle power, thereās no way the consumption wouldnāt be significant. From now on, Iāll treat it as a trump card!ā
Luo Cheng slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and took out a few Essence Energy Pills to swallow.
āItās a pity thereās no time; otherwise, I could try to break through the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm!ā
Perhaps due to the breakthrough in the Xuanlong Technique, Luo Cheng felt the bottleneck in his realm loosening.
If he had time, he would be 60-70% certain he could break through to the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm.
However, this was clearly not the place for that breakthrough.
Shaking his head, Luo Cheng looked towards the mountain peak shrouded with killing intent, his gaze sharp:
āLetās take a look!ā
Swoosh!
In a flash, Luo Cheng dashed forward.
This time, he didnāt delay further, pushing the Mist Shadow Step to the extreme, his figure slicing through the void like a floating light and shadow.
Along the way, figures appeared more frequently in the mountains and forests.
There were disciples of the Three Great Sects, disciples of the Blood Nether Sect, and various Jianghu experts in different attire.
The disciples of the Blood Nether Sect were too weak; some were even martial artists at the Tongxuan Realm, which didnāt interest Luo Cheng. Unless he saw someone struggling, only then would he intervene to help.
āHere we are!ā
Soon, Luo Cheng arrived at the mountain peak position that Chen Lingyu pointed out.
From afar it didnāt seem much, but up close, the mountain peak was incredibly majestic, towering thousands of meters, barren and filled with jagged rocks, like a giant beast sprawling on the land!
At this moment, the entire mountain peak resounded with calls of battle, as disciples of the Three Great Sects and powerful fighters from all sides relentlessly attacked the mountain toward its summit, having already reached above its mid-section.
More and more black dots continuously charged down from the mountain peak; these black dots were all disciples of the Blood Nether Sect!
In the skies and on the ground, everywhere were silhouettes fiercely fighting, with bodies spread across, blood staining the rocks red, coupled with the oppressive clouds of the Black Cloud Mountain Range, forming a severely tense and terrifying atmosphere, just watching it was enough to strike fear!
