The first move of the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique—
Dragon Ascends to Heaven!
With this shout, Abenue's aura surged once more, splitting the heavens with a thunderous roar. The golden dragon bell merged again with the golden True Dragon phantom, soaring upward, riding the wind for ninety thousand li, seeking to ascend to the supreme heavens.
Then the golden True Dragon descended from the sky, carrying unparalleled might. Under this move, its power was absolutely comparable to a strike from an early-stage ninth-layer Great Power.
"Good! Since that's the case, then you receive my move as well!"
The young man laughed heartily once more, his voice rolling like thunder. Then he was seen charging directly into the sky, slapping a palm toward the descending Abenue: "Heaven-Shattering Great Hand Seal!"
Boom—
The Heaven-Shattering Great Hand Seal was immense, spanning ten thousand zhang, covering the entire firmament as it rose, containing the divine might to shatter the great cosmos, rumbling as it slammed toward Abenue.
Boom—
At the moment of collision, the entire vast heavens shook violently. An extremely terrifying divine might abruptly exploded, causing the entire firmament to instantly collapse. Clouds and mist spanning thousands of li were completely scattered, restoring a vacuum, and a central black hole a hundred li wide appeared.
It could be said that within the Ten Heavens Realm under the suppression of the Emperor's Dao, tearing open such a massive spatial black hole was extremely fearsome.
The young talents all swallowed nervously in shock. They might also be able to tear space, but compared to these two, the difference was like heaven and earth—utterly incomparable.
However, after this fierce collision, the battle did not immediately end, for within that central black hole, two terrifying figures were still engaged in intense combat.
Visible to the naked eye, Abenue wore a grave expression, her golden hair disheveled, possessing a peerless beauty that could captivate all ages. She executed the subsequent moves of the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique, the supreme divine ability of the True Dragon race. Her graceful figure manifested dragon-like forms, appearing exquisitely beautiful yet radiating fierce winds, like an ancient dragon traversing the sky. She wielded the golden dragon bell as if it were a golden True Dragon dancing, moving with her will, engaging the young man in close-quarters combat.
Without a doubt, the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique was a heaven-defying divine ability created by the True Dragon race, a peerless technique capable of contending with the Heavenly Dao itself, possessing boundless power. In the hands of a high-level young generation's supreme like Abenue, who possessed Dragon Origin, it was even more so.
It could be said to possess the power to destroy heaven and earth.
At the very least, the area within a thousand li radius fell within the range of the True Dragon Battles Heaven power. Not just the Crimson Blood Lake, but even the myriad mountains and valleys along the lakeshore shook violently, the heavenly light trembling, the intensity extreme.
She was like a true pure-blooded True Dragon in human form, terrifyingly powerful!
"Devouring Dragon Swallow!"
The golden True Dragon tore through heaven and earth, opening its ferocious maw, directly swallowing the mysterious young man whole.
Within the golden True Dragon's body surged an indescribably terrifying destructive divine energy, a power capable of collapsing space constantly erupting within the dragon's form. The rumbling sounds were unceasing, enough to make even a Super Great Power like Prince Hua Yu's scalp tingle. If he were hit, he would undoubtedly perish, body and Dao extinguished.
However, soon, that fearsome True Dragon phantom completely shattered, from within charged the young man, utterly unscathed, descending like a deity. Blazing light coiled around his body, nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi enveloping him, extremely terrifying.
Yet Abenue did not give up, continuing her assault. She pushed the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique, this supreme dragon race divine ability, to its limits, combining it with the golden dragon bell, unleashing resplendent divine might, continuously attacking the young man of the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty.
Visible to the naked eye, every one of Abenue's attacks was absolutely fearsome and heaven-defying, capable of easily shattering the firmament with a single move. Not to mention ordinary Great Powers, even a Super Great Power like Prince Hua Yu would undoubtedly perish under such assaults.
The young man revered by Hua Yuntian and Prince Hua Yu was completely engulfed in the terrifying offensive power of the True Dragon Battles Heaven, trapped within a pocket of void space, unable to evade.
Although Abenue appeared to be in absolute control, taking the initiative with each move, pressing forward step by step, wielding the golden dragon bell with boundless terror, causing heaven and earth to crumble, the Great Dao to disintegrate, and clouds to scatter.
Such absolute offense truly made many sigh in admiration. This golden-haired woman was indeed peerlessly enchanting, actually forcing this super expert from the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty, who was not inferior to the top ten of the Earth Ranking, into such a helpless state, forced to adopt a defensive strategy.
However, whether it was Abenue or Ye Chen and the others, they could clearly see that although Abenue seemed to hold the initiative, she had not managed to gain any advantage over her opponent. On the contrary, the true initiative was firmly in the other's hands. Everything before their eyes was merely an illusion.
Because the young man from the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty remained calm and composed throughout. The nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi surrounding him roared and howled, vast between heaven and earth, engaging in fierce battle with the attacking Abenue, completely blocking all her assaults, unable to harm him in the slightest.
"Too strong!"
Behind Ye Chen, Mo Haishen and Luo Guyun's expressions changed repeatedly. Even Abenue could do little against this person. Their own realms were still inferior; even if the two of them attacked together, they might not fare better than Abenue.
"Awaken!"
During the fight, Abenue let out a Dao shout, imbued with her origin dragon's majesty, directed toward the nine supreme strands of Imperial Dragon Qi, seeking to awaken the dragon souls within them.
It could be said that the nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi on this mysterious young man were far more powerful than Prince Hua Yu's. Once awakened to rebel against their master, they would absolutely cause immense damage.
Indeed, under the influence of the origin dragon's majesty, the dragon souls within the nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi showed a momentary daze, as if about to awaken, giving her a slight thrill of hope.
"Awaken quickly! This person merely enslaved you all, harboring malicious intent. You should awaken urgently and rebel against him!" Abenue shouted.
As if understanding Abenue's words, the dragon eyes of the nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi turned toward the young man.
But the young man merely snorted coldly, like a thunderous divine bell shaking heaven and earth.
Hum—
The dazed intent within the nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi dissipated, and they all charged toward Abenue, attacking anew. Their dark golden dragon eyes filled with ruthless coldness, their sole target being Abenue.
Abenue sighed inwardly, her enchanting figure still charging forward, circulating the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique to continue her assault.
In the blink of an eye, over a hundred exchanges had passed.
Both sides remained evenly matched.
As if neither could gain the upper hand over the other.
Abenue sighed in her heart. She had basically displayed her strongest power, but her opponent was truly too powerful, still giving her a feeling of unfathomable depth.
She already understood that continuing to fight would not allow her to overcome him, but she still pressed on, wishing only to use this to temper herself.
However, at this moment, the mysterious young man moved for the first time, laughing: "You are strong. Within the entire Ten Heavens Realm, you are quite remarkable. It's just a pity that even as a seventh-layer Super Great Power, a high-level young generation's supreme, you are still not my match."
Boom—
As if proving his words, a tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi suddenly erupted from the young man's body. Yet the appearance of this tenth strand was thicker than the other nine, possessing the complete form of a True Dragon and carrying a special origin dragon's majesty that actually resonated with part of the Dragon Origin within Abenue's body.
Abenue's expression changed slightly.
With the emergence of the tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi, the young man instantly became many times more terrifying, giving others a sense of invincible grandeur.
"The tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi!"
Seeing the appearance of this tenth strand, everyone seemed to witness an unbelievable scene.
It must be known that although the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty cultivated the Imperial Dragon Art, enabling them to cultivate the supremely offensive Imperial Dragon Qi, like the major cultivation realms, generally speaking, cultivating to nine strands was the limit, requiring extremely monstrous talent to achieve. Throughout the entire history of the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty, those who could cultivate nine strands could be counted on one hand—no more than twenty.
Even a Super Great Power like Prince Hua Yu had only cultivated eight strands.
Hua Yuntian cultivated nine strands. At such a young age, he ranked 103rd on the Earth Ranking—and this Earth Ranking gathered the most powerful talents from the entire Ten Heavens Realm and various Chaos Ancient Universes—sufficient to demonstrate his monstrous talent.
However, cultivating ten strands of Imperial Dragon Qi—throughout the entire Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty, it was not nonexistent, but its rarity far exceeded that of cultivating nine strands.
Countable on one hand!
Historically, only two people!
The first was naturally the Immortal Great Emperor who founded the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty; the second was the Great Emperor's descendant.
Now a third had appeared: this mysterious young man.
He too had cultivated the tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi.
It must be known that this tenth strand, even if Hua Yuntian obtained the Crimson Scale Demonic Dragon, would be difficult to achieve. Because, like wanting to become the strongest young generation's supreme, it was the most difficult, nearly impossible.
Precisely because of this, the appearance of ten strands of Imperial Dragon Qi was truly shocking.
"Shatter!"
The young man spat out a word and pointed!
Roar—
The tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi shot out like lightning, accompanied by the other nine strands, streaking across the sky. Abenue sensed immense danger and hurriedly circulated the True Dragon Battles Heaven Technique to resist.
Boom—
But it was futile. Once the ten strands of Imperial Dragon Qi emerged, they swept aside everything, overwhelmingly domineering, then shattered the massive golden True Dragon phantom and sent the golden dragon bell flying.
Abenue's delicate body trembled, then was sent flying backward. A trace of paleness appeared on her beautiful face, blood trickling from her red lips, her expression shocked.
The young man abruptly erupted with a vast aura, suppressing heaven and earth, many times more intense, like a peerless Supreme One descending to the mortal world. He gazed at Abenue: "You are of the dragon race. Even if not a pure-blooded True Dragon, you are close, possessing part of the most precious Dragon Origin within you—something I desire. Obtaining your Dragon Origin will certainly allow my tenth strand of Imperial Dragon Qi to advance further!"
"So, you should stay. Offer your Dragon Origin. Your demise will be your honor!"
The void was sealed, and Abenue was sealed, unable to move, because her opponent was too powerful, and the Imperial Dragon Art he cultivated firmly suppressed the Dragon Origin within her.
Her eyes widened, her dark golden pupils reflecting only the young man's hand reaching toward her head, yet she showed not a trace of fear.
"To remain so calm even at death's door is indeed remarkable. It's just a pity you will ultimately die!"
The young man sighed lightly, as if somewhat regretful, yet his expression remained cold and ruthless. Just as his palm was about to land on Abenue's head, shattering her soul, at this moment, a sudden change occurred. Another hand appeared, seemingly slow yet swift, with a thunderous boom blocking his palm. Between them, terrifying spatial fissures hundreds of li long cracked open.
Simultaneously, an indifferent, ruthless voice slowly echoed throughout this stretch of heaven and earth: "Kill her? You are not qualified!"
