Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 227: Ten Lives Are Not Enough to Die!

Dragon Energy completed its eighth transformation, and Luo Cheng could clearly sense that his physical body and blood vitality had become even more powerful. His bone density was increasingly compressed, and his entire body exuded an unparalleled feeling of strength!

He stood tall, rising straight to his feet, and directly approached the second Training Post.

"Hah!"

With a deep breath to gather his strength, Luo Cheng delivered a straight punch!

With a thunderous boom, a deafening roar echoed throughout the Practice Field.

The Training Post, comparable to the strength of a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer peak Martial Artist, shattered into countless pieces, the fragments scattering all around!

"The force of that punch must be close to fifty thousand catties!"

Luo Cheng’s face displayed an expression of shock.

This punch didn’t even utilize any Essence Energy; it was purely the raw power of his physical body!

Even for a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer peak Martial Artist, the physical strength of their body typically maxed out around twenty to thirty thousand catties. That’s the limit of the human body.

Unless one cultivated a body-strengthening technique to break that limit, or advanced their cultivation further.

In other words, Luo Cheng’s current physical power was nearly double that of a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer peak Martial Artist!

This was absolutely a stunning fact!

If it came down to a contest purely of physical strength, one punch from Luo Cheng could kill or cripple a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer peak Martial Artist!

"The True Dragon Technique, Ninth Level Perfection. Dragon Energy transforms into True Dragon Energy! The power of my entire body can be harnessed into True Dragon Power! I wonder what kind of might it will bring!"

Anticipation flickered in Luo Cheng’s heart.

With the profound nature of the All Heavens Dragon Control Technique, this True Dragon Power could never be simple!

Aside from the breakthrough in the True Dragon Technique, Luo Cheng also noticed a significant enhancement in the Essence Energy Spiritual Light within his Essence Energy Vortex.

Its size had surged from the length of a finger to over a foot long!

"It seems that the enhancement in physical blood vitality can also amplify the Essence Energy Spiritual Light! That means, as long as I have enough Soul Crystals to absorb, breaking through to the Tongxuan Realm Second Layer will be effortless!"

With that thought, Luo Cheng could no longer remain seated. He decided to immediately set out for Linjiang City.

After a quick wash, Luo Cheng opened the door and walked out.

As he prepared to descend the mountain, a tall figure appeared right in front of him—it was Yuan Zhilan.

"Luo Cheng, are you heading out?" Yuan Zhilan approached.

Luo Cheng nodded. "I plan to make a trip to Linjiang City to purchase a suitable Star-level Treasure Sword and some Spiritual Medicine to boost my blood vitality."

"Hmm, a swordsman with a suitable Star-level Treasure can increase their strength by at least thirty percent."

Yuan Zhilan stopped two meters in front of Luo Cheng, her gaze falling on him. Her beautiful eyes widened in astonishment:

"Huh, you broke through again? And your aura..."

In just a single day, Luo Cheng had broken through another realm layer, leaving Yuan Zhilan astonished.

Such rapid progress was astonishing! Even the most gifted individuals couldn’t achieve this!

Moreover, Luo Cheng possessed the Wasted Martial Soul, which didn’t even nurture a Martial Soul!

Beyond the advancement in cultivation, the thing that shocked Yuan Zhilan the most was Luo Cheng’s current aura.

In her eyes, Luo Cheng at this moment resembled the blinding sun in the sky or the vast and majestic starry cosmos! That overwhelming and surging energy was so intense it created a palpable pressure when she approached!

Luo Cheng understood that this was due to the breakthrough in the True Dragon Technique. He immediately activated the Primordial Breath Technique, restoring his appearance to that of an ordinary fourteen-year-old boy, and smiled:

"Just broke through to Tongxuan Realm First Layer peak."

Yuan Zhilan snapped out of her daze, her face showing admiration. "Your rate of improvement is truly envy-worthy. Throughout the Outer Sect, no one could possibly compare..."

Luo Cheng chuckled lightly and said, "Seems like you need something from me?"

"Yes."

Yuan Zhilan nodded and pointed to the woods on the other side of the courtyard. "Gao Yuan is over there, claiming he must see you."

"See me?"

Luo Cheng was somewhat surprised. "Let’s go and see."

That Gao Yuan, while arrogant, was not as overbearing and tyrannical as the other Crown Prince Hall members.

It was thanks to him that Luo Cheng had been able to cultivate the nine Essence Energy Vortexes to Perfection this quickly.

The two headed to the woods.

Gao Yuan remained seated cross-legged, his brows tightly furrowed, appearing deep in thought.

"Luo Cheng!"

Seeing Luo Cheng, Gao Yuan immediately rose to his feet.

Luo Cheng said, "You’ve been waiting for me?"

Gao Yuan nodded and took a deep breath. "I’ve spent an entire day trying to figure out why I lost!"

Luo Cheng smiled bitterly in his heart; so that was what this was about. He said:

"Lend me your sword."

Gao Yuan hesitated for a moment but then handed over his sword.

"Watch closely!"

The Treasure Sword unsheathed, and an unrivaled, sharp aura burst from Luo Cheng’s body. The sword transformed into a flash of lightning, slashing toward the woods.

The lightning streaked by, leaving everything tranquil afterward.

Clang!

Luo Cheng resheathed the sword and returned it to Gao Yuan.

In the next moment.

Crunch!

Ahead, several trees suddenly broke midway, their cuts smooth and pristine, displaying their sharp precision!

What was most incredible was that these trees were not aligned in a straight line but were scattered irregularly!

Gao Yuan stared at the fallen trees, stunned for a moment before his eyes lit up:

"The sword moves with the heart! When the heart moves, the sword moves! Sword Heart Perfection!"

Shifting his gaze, Gao Yuan looked deeply at Luo Cheng:

"So that’s it! My defeat at your hands is not unjust! However, I will not completely yield! When my Sword Heart reaches Perfection, I will challenge you again!"

Luo Cheng couldn’t help but admire the fighting spirit in Gao Yuan.

Unfortunately, Gao Yuan was destined never to catch up.

Luo Cheng’s trump cards were far more than Sword Heart Perfection; his physical power nearing fifty thousand catties and the nine Essence Energy Vortexes within him were unmatched weapons!

"I’ll be waiting." novelbuddy.cσ๓

Luo Cheng left these words and prepared to leave.

"Wait!"

Gao Yuan stopped Luo Cheng, saying, "I, Gao Yuan, repay my debts and grievances fairly. Since you answered my question, I won’t let you go without reciprocating. I have something to tell you."

Luo Cheng was curious about the seriousness in Gao Yuan’s tone and asked, "What is it?"

Instead of answering directly, Gao Yuan asked, "Are you planning to participate in the Outer Sect Tournament?"

Luo Cheng raised his brows and nodded, "I am."

"Then I advise you not to!"

Gao Yuan shook his head solemnly and said, "Qi Guyun has already issued orders: Any Crown Prince Hall member who encounters you in the Outer Sect Tournament must kill you without mercy!!"

"What?!"

Yuan Zhilan gasped in shock, her brows furrowing deeply. "The Outer Sect Tournament has always forbidden killing! This openly violates Sect Rules!"

"Heh, you’re too naive! In this world, the strong reign supreme. What do Sect Rules matter? Just look at Yun Mengli—she wiped out several Elders, and her punishment was merely symbolic confinement for two years at most!"

"With the Eighth Prince Jin Min’s backing for this matter, even if he claims it was just an accident, who will stand up for an Outer Disciple who awakened a Wasted Martial Soul?"

Gao Yuan’s words left Yuan Zhilan’s face as white as a sheet.

Gao Yuan shook his head and turned to look at Luo Cheng. "If you participate in the Outer Sect Tournament and die on the stage, even Yun Mengli may not be able to hold anyone accountable."

"I advise you to give up! Among the Outer Sect’s top ten disciples, six are Crown Prince Hall members, and Tongxuan Realm Third Layer experts are countless. If you enter the tournament, even ten lives will not be enough to save you!"

Luo Cheng’s expression remained unmoved as he nodded briefly. "Understood."

"Then, I’ll take my leave."

Gao Yuan assumed Luo Cheng had taken his advice to heart and promptly departed.

The sword technique Luo Cheng had displayed earlier had given him inspiration, and he wanted to return to his cultivation immediately.

Luo Cheng watched Gao Yuan’s retreating figure, sharp determination flickering in his eyes:

"Kill without mercy—what an order to kill without mercy! I’ll see who kills whom when the time comes!"
