Gao Wu: Ten years of sparring experience, one move and the world knows him

Chapter 236 The Dragon Manifests Its Power

Upon hearing his words, everyone was shocked and quickly used their martial arts skills to retreat.

The pedestrians on the ground were in complete chaos, with cries of pain and falls echoing everywhere.

"Buddha did his best, Amitabha!"

Zen Master Zhisheng's eyes were already showing faint blood vessels. His skill level was only at the high stage of the Dharma Aspect realm. Even if he exerted all his strength and used the Emei treasure, he could only hold out for a short while.

"The mighty power of heaven, the thunderous might, all divine thunder, heed my command! Swiftly!"

Just then, a bolt of divine lightning as thick as a bucket crashed down from the clear sky, striking the dragon-shaped beast directly.

They charred its scales completely. Well, only one scale.

"..——"

Master Yunhao, who had rushed to the rescue, froze, his face filled with disbelief.

Even if a True Man of Dharma Image were to encounter his Thunderclap Sword Technique, he would not dare to take it head-on.

This strange beast—

Before he could recite the sword incantation and prepare to unleash another sword technique, the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon opened its mouth wide, and a flash of black light appeared.

A huge, jet-black sphere shot straight toward him.

"not good!"

Yun Hao was shocked. He unleashed his sword light as if it were free, whistling towards the dark sphere.

At the same time, his figure flashed and he retreated at lightning speed.

Unfortunately, the difference in their skill levels was too great; no matter how many sword lights there were, they could not slow down the black sphere even slightly.

Just then, a massive dust cloud crashed down, directly engulfing the sphere in its entangled threads.

Yun Hao breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look. It was Cang Zhenzi from the Qingcheng Sword Sect.

The two belong to the same "faction," so there's no need to elaborate.

Knowing his own limitations, Yun Hao quickly retreated.

"Brother Dao, you've come at just the right time. Otherwise, I would be in deep trouble."

Zhisheng spat out a mouthful of turbid blood, and the golden light of the Buddhist beads in his hand increased by one point, blocking the dragon flame's breath.

"This beast is powerful; no one below the Domain Realm can defeat it!"

The whisk in Cang Zhenzi's hand shrunk in size, clearly indicating that the dark sphere was struggling to break free.

It's not that easy to control.

"I have already used telepathy to summon my sect's senior uncle to come here."

The monk Zhisheng sank his feet deep into the cement ground, managing to carve two deep pits into the earth.

Seeing that its two attacks had been blocked by two ants, the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon was enraged, and a burst of flames suddenly rose from its body.

Then, the flames suddenly expanded outwards like radiation.

Two whooshing sounds were heard.

The flames then rapidly spread to an area spanning several miles.

"not good!"

Everyone was shocked.

Those who didn't have time to escape didn't even have the chance to put up a fight before turning into ashes.

At this moment, Zhisheng and Cangzhenzi could no longer withstand the opponent's attack. The two figures flew backward like cannonballs.

If neither of them hadn't been protected by magical treasures, they probably wouldn't have escaped unscathed.

"You wretched creature, how dare you do this!"

The experts from the Qingcheng and Emei sects who rushed to the rescue saw the apocalyptic scene on the ground from afar.

His expression changed drastically, filled with grief and indignation.

The Qingcheng and Emei factions were responsible for the overall security of this hunting operation.

Of course, this security is not the same as that of a security guard, nor is it required to be on duty or standing guard.

Rather, it refers to large-scale events where martial arts masters are specially arranged to provide on-site protection to prevent interference from high-level combat forces.

This time, Qingcheng and Emei took it very seriously, sending one Domain Realm expert, one Dharma Aspect expert, and several elite disciples at the Divine Void Realm and Grandmaster Realm.

Unexpectedly, this divine dragon arrived so suddenly that even the divine consciousness of a Domain Realm expert and the coastal defense radar did not detect it at all.

It was as if it had fallen from the sky.

The first two layers of protection were completely breached.

Master Weiyan from the Qingcheng Sect and Zen Master Puyuan from the Emei Sect, who had arrived at the scene, hurriedly unleashed their sect's exquisite techniques to attack the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon.

The two of them were great experts who had just entered the Domain Realm. They rarely made a move, and outsiders knew very little about their actual strength.

This time, if it weren't for the fact that Mu Yang Langjun made such a big commotion, it would have been worrying that the evil realm expert might have some ulterior motive.

They won't be there either.

Unexpectedly, instead of causing any trouble, a dragon-shaped beast unexpectedly appeared.

As visitors to Guixu, they had actually heard of the dragon-shaped mythical beast.

Legend has it that many masters in the martial arts world were once unparalleled figures who traveled to the Pangu Continent and encountered various wondrous creatures.

However, in the past century, with the dissipation of the spiritual energy of Guixu and the increase of the spiritual energy of Blue Star, the strength of Song Realm martial artists has not improved rapidly, and there are very few top-level figures.

These experiences were never witnessed by anyone, and naturally, no one mentions them anymore.

However, these major sects all have some records, although these records look more like travelogues.

Most of the disciples treated it as a "novel".

When the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon last appeared, all the sects were already on alert and searched through their sect's records to reorganize their information on top-tier exotic beasts.

Although they were just snippets, they still managed to summarize some key points.

Deep within the Pangu Continent of Guixu, in a place unexplored and untouched even by the wild and untamed races, it is said that some extraordinary beasts live.

They can fly through the sky and disappear into the earth, possessing extremely high supernatural powers. They can often roam freely throughout the world, not confined to one place, and usually do not appear in the Ruins of Return.

These strange beasts are collectively known as divine beasts.

Correspondingly, there are also monsters and demonic beasts, which have transcended the category of exotic beasts.

However, they are rarely seen in the Song territory, the Shang and Zhou dynasties, or even among the wild tribes.

It's just a mystery why this dragon-shaped creature, which resembles a mythical beast, suddenly appeared on Earth.

Along the coastal area, Wei Yan and his companion charged towards the Crimson Flame Ice Dragon, their expressions grim.

According to the data collected, this cloud-riding beast's strength has long surpassed that of the Domain Realm.

At least their supernatural abilities are beyond the limits of the Domain Realm.

Simply flying out of Earth and traveling the universe is something even experts in the realm of cultivation cannot do.

Those at the Domain Realm can use the power of their domain to stay in space for a short time, but only for a short time, because the extreme cold and air pressure in space will cause great damage to even Domain Realm experts.

They have to rely on their own internal energy to combat this damage at all times.

"Let's hold on to the first wave and save as many people as we can."

The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously unleashed their Dharma Aspects, activating their domain powers to envelop the Crimson Flame Ice Dragon.

"Words become law! Break! Break! Break!"

With a loud shout, Master Weiyan unleashed his domain power, causing the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon's body to be struck from the inside out by a heavy hammer, resulting in several broken wounds.

A stream of bright red blood instantly gushed out.

But before the blood could drip, it seemed to come alive, swiftly seeping back into the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon's body.

The wound healed instantly.

However, this damage still provoked the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon. Its dragon head turned and spat out blazing flames at the flying True Person Wei Chen.

This flame directly penetrated the resistance of Master Weiyan's domain, completely ignoring the restrictions Master Weiyan placed on the power of the flame within the domain.

It struck straight at his main body.

The Dharma Image True Man of the Subtle Words True Man hurriedly used his true energy to transform it into a wall of energy in front of him.

As a result, the air barrier was destroyed after only one breath.

Master Weiyan gasped, then reconstituted a wall of energy, which was destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Master Weichen had no choice but to retreat continuously, constantly condensing a wall of energy to stop the impact of the flames.

In the blink of an eye, he had created nearly a hundred walls of energy to alleviate the impact of the locked flames and dodge away.

Master Puyuan, who was standing to the side, was not idle either. He activated his Sanskrit mantra domain, and the Sanskrit characters turned into golden light and stuck to the dragon's body.

These golden divine runes, though seemingly ordinary, contain immeasurable power of the domain.

It can generate continuous gravitational support, weaken support, and isolate spiritual energy.

It is a top-tier cultivation technique.

Ordinary martial artists, under this golden light, have no power to fight back at all, and can only be trapped in the mud, unable to control their own destiny.

"roar!"

Sensing the power of the Daoist incantation, the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon roared, its body trembled, and an invisible force exploded instantly.

These Sanskrit mantras were completely broken down.

They transformed into streaks of golden light and dissipated into the air.

Having broken free from the shackles of the Sanskrit characters, the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon opened its blood-red maw and unleashed a second breath.

This time, it wasn't just a point or line impact, but rather like a fan, sweeping across almost half a circle.

At this point, no one was left lingering in the area within a radius of several miles.

Otherwise, just that one blow would have killed countless people.

Those who escaped stared in terror at the strange beast that stretched across half the sky in the distance.

Panic spread through their hearts.

Are such strange beasts really something that humans can contend with?

Looking back on the previous hunting operation, a sense of ignorant absurdity instantly welled up in my heart.

"What are you all standing there for? Run! Do you think this thing will just sit there and not move?"

Organizers and police officers in the surrounding area began to disperse the lingering crowd as much as possible.

Otherwise, if this strange beast goes berserk, it's not impossible that it could leave the land barren for miles around.

Go as far away as you can.

The chaotic scene was clearly transmitted to the internet via live stream.

The entire online world was in an uproar.

People then realized that some of these strange beasts were so powerful that they could destroy the world.

The news caused an uproar not only online, but also generated even stronger reactions in real life.

In the area where the dragon was located, people within a radius of hundreds of kilometers were filled with panic and rushed westward in their cars.

Try to get away before it launches an attack.

Such a major event naturally attracted the attention of the authorities long ago, and fighter jets took off one after another, heading towards their destination.

But they also knew that fighter jets were not very useful in this level of combat.

In addition to the military's fighter jets being deployed, top experts from various schools and sects also stepped out of their mountain gates and headed towards the East China Sea coast.

This is no longer a problem that can be solved by just one or two sects.

Inside the Immortal Cave of Qingcheng Mountain, Zhao Rui was awakened by the sect leader Yu Zhengnan. After hearing his retelling, his face immediately darkened.

"Senior brother, keep watch over the entrance and bring me to this Longevity Cave to take refuge first. I'll be right back."

After Zhao Rui finished speaking, he reached out and the Broken Tribulation Sword, which had been stuck not far away, flew into his hand in a flash.

"Be extremely careful. If things don't go well, escape on your own."

Seeing him take off, Yu Zhengnan couldn't help but call out with concern.

"knew!"

Zhao Rui nodded, glanced eastward, and then disappeared in front of Qingcheng Mountain in a flash.

On the coast of the East China Sea, Cang Zhenzi and Zhisheng could only hold out for a few minutes before they were too exhausted to continue and had to avoid the sharp edge of the Crimson Flame Ice Dragon.

They actually saw a hint of mockery in the eyes of this strange beast.

It was as if they had been toying with them all along.

This left the two of them feeling deeply frustrated.

"call!"

The Crimson Flame Frost Dragon opened its mouth, and a gust of wind rose up, shattering everything within a ten-mile radius into fragments of rock and debris that rushed forward.

These rubble fragments, like a dragon, destroyed everything in their path: buildings, vehicles, crops, and hills.

Nothing can stop it.

"Let's all join forces!"

Not far away, several experts at the Domain Realm rushed over, including Mu Huazi from the Taishan Sect and Huai Xiang from Shaolin, and they all unleashed their strongest techniques, attacking the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon together.

Several experts at the Domain Realm joined forces, creating an immense and formidable force.

The sky was filled with fluctuations of true energy, and the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon was being eroded by various supernatural powers.

If it were a typical high-level beast, it would have been reduced to ashes long ago by so many supernatural powers.

However, when these powers touched the Crimson Flame Frost Dragon, they were like a mirage.

The power was immense, yet the dragon appeared unharmed.

On the contrary, it was not as effective as the damage caused by Zhisheng and the other two.

"What's going on?"

The experts from all fields were shocked, and even Pu Yuan and his companion, who had previously fought against the Crimson Flame Ice Dragon, stared wide-eyed.

Before developing feelings, this dragon had been "playing" with them.

They didn't use their real skills at all.

"Is this the martial arts strength of your Central Plains? As expected, it's all based on the foundation of the Song Dynasty, nothing special."

Just as everyone was in shock, two figures appeared in the sky.

One of his hairs was disheveled, wrapped in a silver headband, with the loose strands tied into small braids, resembling snarling little snakes.

"A man from a great merchant family?"

Everyone's hearts sank. Could this dragon have been sent by the people of the Shang Dynasty?

If that's the case, the situation could be dangerous.

"Indeed, I originally came to find someone, but I never expected to meet the Viper King, a sight that is only seen once in a century."

"This trip was truly worthwhile."

The man laughed heartily, seemingly quite pleased.

"The Viper King?"

The elders from various sects were taken aback and asked in surprise, "Do you recognize this strange beast?"

"Naturally, this is one of the thirty-six kings of the wild beasts, also known as the Viper King or the Golden King."

Their strength is formidable—tsk tsk, you'd better watch yourselves.

After saying this, the man suddenly stepped into the air and disappeared into the distance.

Clearly, he is self-aware.

Huai Xiang and the others exchanged glances, feeling a chill run down their spines. At this moment, neither advancing nor retreating seemed like an option.

If they go up, they obviously can't win; if they don't go up, this dragon will wreak havoc, and not only will the Central Plains suffer, but all sects and factions will also be hard-pressed to escape unscathed.

"Boom!"

The roar of fighter jets could be heard from afar, and soon dozens of missiles were launched towards Viper King.

"Everyone be careful, don't get caught in the crossfire!"

Mu Huazi shouted and retreated a distance to avoid being injured by the aftershocks of the explosion.

"Boom, boom boom!"

A cloud of dust rose into the sky, followed by a massive explosion that resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"How was it? Did you hit it? Did it work?"

At this moment, whether they were online viewers or experts at the Grandmaster and Domain Realms on site, everyone turned to look.
