Chapter 5860 5861
“Your reaction wasn’t slow.”
The Ice Dragon sneered, opening its massive maw and spewing out an icy blue breath!
That breath wasn’t fire, but an extremely concentrated form of ice law!
Wherever it passed, even light was frozen and distorted, forming a strange icy blue tunnel that instantly reached Kai!
“Indestructible Golden Body!”
Kai didn’t dare to be careless, fully activating his Chaos Immortal Power, his entire body covered in a layer of golden scales.
The Little Fire Qilin also opened its mouth and spewed out a golden pillar of fire, attempting to counteract the breath.
“Sizzle—!”
The golden pillar of fire collided with the icy blue breath, emitting a violent hissing sound, and large swaths of white mist rose up.
But the Little Fire Qilin’s flames were clearly at a disadvantage; the golden pillar of fire was constantly compressed and extinguished, and the icy blue breath continued its unstoppable charge towards Kai!
“Bang!”
The Chaos Shield collided with the breath, producing a dull thud.
Kai felt an irresistible force surge through him. His shield instantly cracked, and he was sent flying hundreds of feet away as if struck by an ancient divine mountain, crashing heavily onto the ice. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, mixed with tiny ice crystals.
The little fire qilin was also swept away by the aftershock of the breath, screaming and rolling away. Many of its scales were shattered, and its golden flames were almost extinguished.
In just two moves, Kai and the little fire qilin were already severely injured!
The strength of the peak ninth rank of the Heavenly Immortal Realm was terrifying!
“Too weak.”
The Ice Dragon shook its head, its eyes full of disdain. “I thought I could stretch my muscles, but I didn’t expect it to be so easily defeated. Oh well, let’s end this sooner rather than later.”
It slowly raised its huge forepaw, the tip of which gleamed with cold light, and was about to strike down on Kai.
If this claw landed, Kai would probably be turned into mincemeat on the spot.
Outside the great formation, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord and Ling Shuang watched with bloodshot eyes, wishing they could rush in to help, but they were blocked by the great formation and could only watch in despair.
The Palace Master frowned slightly, seemingly wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.
At this critical moment, a mad glint flashed in Kai’s eyes.
“I can’t die here… absolutely not!”
He bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the Dragon-Slaying Sword. Simultaneously, his hands rapidly formed hand seals, and the chaotic immortal power, chaotic fire lotus, and true dragon blood within his body began to burn and merge wildly!
“With my blood essence, call my true name! With my soul, guide my true form!”
“Chaotic Dragon Transformation—Golden Dragon Transformation!”
Kai roared hoarsely, his voice carrying an ancient and majestic rhythm!
“Roar—!!!”
A dragon’s roar, more ancient, more majestic, and more soul-shaking than the Ice Dragon’s roar, suddenly erupted from Kai’s body!
It was not a phantom, not an illusion!
But a real roar, originating from the depths of his bloodline, belonging to a primordial true dragon!
As the dragon’s roar resounded, a dazzling golden light erupted from Kai’s body!
The golden light was pure, sacred, and majestic, carrying an unparalleled pressure that surpassed all beasts!
Within the golden light, Kai’s body began to undergo astonishing changes!
Fine golden dragon scales appeared on his skin!
His hands transformed into dragon claws, their fingertips sharp as divine weapons! Two small, yet infinitely majestic dragon horns slowly emerged from his forehead!
Behind him, a thick, powerful dragon tail lashed out, shattering the ice surface!
His eyes transformed into pure golden vertical pupils, cold, majestic, and indifferent to everything!
A dragon’s might, more ancient, purer, and nobler than that of the Ice Dragon, spread from Kai like a tide, instantly filling the entire depression!
Under this dragon’s might, the Ice Dragon’s originally overwhelming pressure melted and retreated rapidly, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun!
The Ice Dragon’s giant claw, which had been slamming down, stopped abruptly in mid-air.
Its enormous, ice-blue vertical pupils were filled with unprecedented shock, horror, and… a trace of fear originating from the depths of its bloodline!
“This… this is… the pressure of a true dragon?!”
The Ice Dragon’s voice trembled for the first time, “Impossible! How can a human possess such pure true dragon blood?! You… who exactly are you?!”
Kai did not answer.
At this moment, he felt an immense surge of power within him, yet he also bore a tremendous burden.
The Chaos Dragon Transformation was a forbidden technique he used to simulate a true dragon’s form and unleash its true dragon bloodline with chaotic immortal power. Its power was immense, but the strain on his physical body and soul was also enormous, making it unsustainable.
He had to finish this quickly.
“Now, am I qualified to take the Blood Lotus?”
Kai spoke, his voice like the scraping of metal, carrying the unique majesty and coldness of the dragon race.
The Ice Dragon’s massive body trembled slightly, its fierce glint replaced by fear.
It possessed a trace of Ice Dragon bloodline, already quite remarkable among dragon-type beasts, but facing the true, pure pressure of a true dragon, the suppression of its bloodline was fatal!
Like a subject before a king, a mouse before a cat—it was an instinctive awe etched into its very bones!
“You…you…”
The Ice Dragon tried to say something, but the words turned into a low whimper.
Its massive body slowly lowered, finally prostrating itself on the ice, bowing its proud head.
This was an expression of submission.
Outside the great formation, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord and Ling Shuang were stunned.
The Palace Master’s eyes also flashed with shock, and he murmured to himself, “Such pure True Dragon pressure… Sword Star, what is the origin of this successor you chose?”
Seeing the Ice Dragon submit, Kai breathed a sigh of relief, but dared not relax in the slightest.
He maintained his Golden Dragon Transformation state and walked step by step towards the icy pool.
The Ice Dragon lay prostrate on the ground, not daring to move, not even daring to look up at Kai.
Reaching the edge of the icy pool, Kai looked at the thousand-year-old Ice Soul Blood Lotus.
The bud was already half open, its crimson petals delicate and alluring, emitting a tempting fragrance.
He reached out and carefully plucked the entire blood lotus, roots and all, placing it into a pre-prepared icy jade box and sealing it.
Throughout the entire process, the Ice Dragon watched silently, a trace of reluctance flashing in its eyes, but mostly reverence.
After plucking the blood lotus, Kai didn’t linger, turning and walking towards the edge of the depression.
The little fire qilin limped along, its eyes filled with awe as it looked at Kai.
Only after Kai stepped out of the gap in the formation did the ice dragon slowly raise its head, gazing in the direction Kai had left, its huge vertical pupils displaying a complex expression.
