Chapter 94: Zhuang Zhou's Strength, The Mysterious Number One on the List?
"Interesting. What if I refuse to hand it over?"
Zhuang Zhou's tone carried a hint of laziness, as if stating the simplest of facts.
"You!"
Seeing the other party's attitude, fury surged in Yu Yuanzhen's heart.
He carefully sensed the youth holding the treasure; although his aura was extraordinary, he was definitely not yet at the Soul Saint realm.
However, the young man before him had an obscure aura surrounding him.
Although he couldn't see through him, judging by his age, he was only in his early twenties.
Even if he started Cultivating from the womb, it would be absolutely impossible for him to reach the Titled Douluo Rank!
He was a dignified level 96 Super Douluo, what did he have to fear?
"Refuse?"
Murderous intent flared in Yu Yuanzhen's eyes. "Then die!"
Before his voice faded, lightning flashed violently around him!
Accompanied by a deafening Dragon roar, the powerful Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul instantly possessed him.
Nine Soul Rings spiraled up!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Violent blue lightning tore through the air, carrying a destructive aura, and enveloped Zhuang Zhou and Ao Yin!
The full-force strike of a level 96 Super Douluo possessed astonishing might!
"Ao Yin, step back a little."
Zhuang Zhou said plainly to the youth beside him.
Facing the sweeping, violent lightning, he didn't even move his feet.
The next moment, a mysterious and profound aura spread out from within Zhuang Zhou's body.
A massive, illusory phantom of the North Sea Kun flashed behind him and vanished.
It seemed to roam the boundary between reality and illusion.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
At the same time, an invisible power of the Void Realm rippled out like water.
It silently dissolved and eliminated the violent lightning—powerful enough to shatter mountains—into nothingness!
Immediately after, Soul Power surged around Zhuang Zhou.
Nine Soul Rings slowly rose from beneath his feet.
Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red!
Six black and three red!
Especially the terrifying pressure emitted by the three blood-red hundred thousand year spirit rings.
It instantly suppressed the light of Yu Yuanzhen's nine Soul Rings!
"What? Level... Level 97?"
"Six black and three red? This is impossible!"
Yu Yuanzhen's pupils contracted sharply.
The arrogance and murderous intent on his face were instantly replaced by unparalleled shock and terror!
He looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Staring intently at the Soul Rings on Zhuang Zhou's body, his voice became sharp due to the extreme horror.
"Who... who exactly are you? There is absolutely no such person as you on the Douluo Continent!"
A young man in his twenties.
His Rank was higher than his own, and his Soul Ring configuration was Heaven-Defying to the point of subverting all understanding!
This completely exceeded the scope of Yu Yuanzhen's comprehension.
Suddenly.
A name that had recently become famous yet remained mysterious flashed through his mind like lightning!
"Big Dipper Academy! You are a person from Big Dipper Academy!"
Yu Yuanzhen cried out, his tone filled with disbelief.
Zhuang Zhou revealed a lazy, wicked smile.
His figure began to blur, seemingly merging into the surrounding Void Realm.
"Congratulations, you guessed correctly."
Zhuang Zhou's playful voice still echoed in the air.
But his true body had already appeared silently behind Yu Yuanzhen, like Gui Mei!
"Not good!"
Yu Yuanzhen felt a chill shoot straight from his tailbone to the crown of his head.
Combat instinct made him act without thinking.
Lightning flashed violently around him, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Avatar was instantly activated.
The enormous Dragon body, carrying violent electric snakes, swept fiercely backward!
Simultaneously, the seventh Soul Ring lit up—Spirit Avatar!
"Seventh Spirit Ability: Spirit Avatar!"
However, Zhuang Zhou's figure once again became illusory.
The Dragon tail, capable of splitting mountains and shattering stones, swept past, but only pierced through an afterimage.
"Too slow."
Zhuang Zhou's calm voice came from another direction.
He did not actively attack.
He merely moved through Yu Yuanzhen's violent Lightning Domain as if taking a leisurely stroll.
The attacks, which would have flustered an ordinary Titled Douluo, couldn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
"Damn it!"
Yu Yuanzhen was both shocked and enraged.
He had never encountered such a bizarre opponent.
The opponent's speed was not merely fast.
Instead, it was a "Teleportation" that seemed to merge with space and disregard distance!
"Eighth Spirit Skill: Dragon Soaring Sky Thunder Burst!"
Yu Yuanzhen roared, and his massive Dragon mouth opened.
A pillar of blue lightning, condensed to the extreme and emitting destructive fluctuations, fiercely blasted toward Zhuang Zhou's location!
Facing this Eighth Spirit Skill, powerful enough to severely wound a peer, Zhuang Zhou finally moved.
He slowly raised his right hand and gently pointed his index finger forward.
"In the North Sea there is a fish; its name is Kun."
In an instant, the space in front of him seemed to transform into an invisible North Sea.
The roaring pillar of lightning Dragon rushed into this "sea area," and its speed suddenly slowed.
Its power was like a clay ox plunging into the sea, weakened and broken down layer by layer.
By the time it reached Zhuang Zhou.
Only a faint electric spark remained, which he gently blew away.
"The power is passable, but the application is crude."
Zhuang Zhou evaluated, his tone still calm.
Terror filled Yu Yuanzhen's heart!
His Eighth Spirit Skill was actually neutralized by the opponent so effortlessly?
What kind of monster was this?!
"Ninth Spirit Ability: True Dragon's Wrath..."
Yu Yuanzhen felt unwilling.
He prepared to use his strongest Ninth Spirit Ability.
But Zhuang Zhou had no intention of giving him another chance.
"Eighth Spirit Skill: Dream Butterfly Fluttering."
Zhuang Zhou's figure suddenly split into three, then three split into nine... Instantly, dozens of Zhuang Zhou's illusions appeared around Yu Yuanzhen.
Every illusion carried a genuine aura and simultaneously attacked him!
Some pointed, some struck with palms, and some contained the power of spatial cutting.
The offensive was mysterious and unpredictable.
It seemed to come from all directions, yet also seemed to originate from a dream.
Yu Yuanzhen's Ninth Spirit Ability was interrupted.
He could only frantically wave his Dragon claws and release protective lightning to defend against the omnipresent attacks.
"Pfft!"
A finger wind imbued with the power of the Void Realm pierced his lightning defense, leaving a bloody hole on his tough Dragon scales.
"Crack!"
Another palm strike followed, seemingly ignoring his defenses.
It directly shook the Qi and Blood within him, causing cracks to appear in his bones!
Zhuang Zhou's attacks were not violent.
Yet they were precise and bizarre, striking Yu Yuanzhen in the most uncomfortable places every time.
This left him with powerful Soul Power and a Martial Soul, but a frustrating feeling of having strength with nowhere to apply it.
After only a dozen exchanges.
Yu Yuanzhen's massive Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Avatar was already covered in wounds.
Dragon scales were shattered, and blood flowed freely.
His aura had also diminished by more than half.
"Bastard!"
Yu Yuanzhen let out an unwilling roar; he had never suffered such humiliation!
He was completely suppressed by an opponent with bizarre methods, utterly unable to fight back!
He knew that if this continued.
He might truly perish here today!
A trace of madness and resolve flashed in his eyes.
Yu Yuanzhen abruptly withdrew his Spirit Avatar and returned to human form.
He formed an ancient and complex hand seal with both hands and let out a difficult chant:
"By my Blood, I summon the power of the Ancestral Dragon! True Dragon Nine Crowns, appear!"
Boom!
A terrifying aura, far more ancient and majestic than before, suddenly erupted from Yu Yuanzhen's body!
Above his head.
Nine illusory crown phantoms, condensed from pure Dragon power, vaguely appeared!
Although each crown appeared somewhat blurry and incomplete.
The level of power had already surpassed the scope of a Super Douluo!
This was the forbidden method of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan—the True Dragon Nine Crowns!
It was a method to temporarily enhance one's strength at the cost of burning the Bloodline Origin.
"Roar!"
After receiving the power boost, Yu Yuanzhen's aura surged, and he violently punched out.
The punch carried a faint trace of Dragon King majesty.
It instantly shattered all dozens of Zhuang Zhou's surrounding illusions!
Even the space rippled violently!
Zhuang Zhou's true body was forced to appear.
He looked at the raging, seemingly insane Yu Yuanzhen, raising an eyebrow slightly.
"Oh? That's somewhat interesting. A method of burning one's Bloodline?"
Yu Yuanzhen knew well that this Dragon Bone Fragment had limited duration and severe side effects.
He dared not linger in battle, glaring fiercely at Zhuang Zhou with eyes full of hatred and terror:
"Big Dipper Academy! I, Yu Yuanzhen, have noted this grudge! I will surely repay it another day!"
Before his words finished, he transformed into a brilliant blue lightning Dragon.
Burning his Bloodline Power, he moved at several times the speed he arrived with.
He fled frantically toward the distance without looking back.
He didn't even bother to discern the direction.
He only sought to escape this terrifying opponent as quickly as possible.
Zhuang Zhou did not pursue.
He simply watched quietly as Yu Yuanzhen disappeared into the horizon, his surrounding Soul Rings and the North Sea Kun phantom slowly retracting.
"Burning your Bloodline, damaging your Origin, and barely escaping with your life—you showed some resolution."
He commented plainly.
"This..."
Ao Yin, who had watched the entire battle from the side, was already dumbfounded.
Only now did he truly realize how terrifyingly strong Teacher Zhuang Zhou was—the man who usually seemed sleepy and uninterested in everything.
Just how terrifying his strength truly was!
That was a level 96 Super Douluo, the Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!
Yet, in front of Teacher Zhuang Zhou, he was toyed with and crushed like a child.
Ultimately, he had to resort to forbidden methods just to flee desperately!
"Teacher... Teacher Zhuang Zhou, you are too strong!"
Ao Yin's voice held uncontrollable excitement and admiration.
Zhuang Zhou turned his head, reverted to his lazy appearance, and yawned.
"Strong? Not really. I was just passing the time."
"Let's go. Continue searching for your Opportunity. This Dragon Valley is huge; don't let this little episode hold us up."
Looking at Teacher Zhuang Zhou, who acted as if nothing had happened.
The shock in Ao Yin's heart could not be calmed for a long time.
He nodded forcefully, suppressing his excitement.
He closely followed Zhuang Zhou's steps, once again venturing deeper into this vast and dangerous Dragon Valley.
And just as the Dragon Valley became the focal point, attracting the attention of over ninety-nine percent of the Continent... the heavenly curtain changed again!
This time, there was no earth-shattering momentum, nor was there World-sweeping pressure.
All the golden light receded like a tide, and the entire heavenly curtain became a state of Chaos.
An indescribable "silence" enveloped the entire World.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
In this absolute stillness, a tiny glimmer of light, like the first wisp of thought at the dawn of creation, quietly lit up from the center of the Chaos.
That light did not illuminate anything.
Following this, a line of text, seemingly naturally outlined by the trajectory of the Great Dao.
Silently appeared within the perception of all living beings, directly branded deep into their Soul:
[The opportunity ranking list, the first place, is about to be revealed.]
This single sentence filled everyone's hearts with immense anticipation.
