Chapter 1163: Reaction From the Rising Dragon Platform |
TL: GoldenLung
Bai Xiuxiu stared at him in astonishment, her voice trembling slightly. "Spiritual manifestation. Your… your spiritual power has reached the peak of the Spiritual Domain realm." Lan Xuanyu was startled and instinctively turned his awareness inward to examine his spiritual sea. At some point, his spiritual sea had become boundless and infinite. The dragon core suspended in the void remained bright and dazzling, with swirling, colorful light shimmering atop it, radiating gentle spiritual fluctuations that illuminated the rippling waves below, making them gleam with equal splendor.
Yes, Bai Xiuxiu was right. His spiritual power had unknowingly risen to the peak of the Spiritual Domain realm.
Although taking the next step beyond this would be as difficult as reaching the heavens, he had at least reached this level. This meant that, from now until he broke through to the Limit Douluo level, he would face no further bottlenecks on the spiritual plane. Facing a formidable opponent like Xu Yanmo, such a breakthrough in spiritual power was naturally a great boon, and it significantly bolstered his confidence in confronting Xu Yanmo.
During breakfast, Huang Yuanlang's attitude toward them had clearly changed somewhat. There was less casualness in his words and more respect.
If they advanced to the finals, it would mean they would soon be eligible to compete to become Dragon Knights. Particularly since they could partner up and compete together, their competitiveness would increase even more. The Mokong Dragon Knight was already very satisfied with Lan Xuanyu, and with his guidance, they could avoid many detours. If Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu truly became a pair of Dragon Knights in the near future, their status within the family would far surpass that of Huang Yuanlang, the family heir. The Huang family would then genuinely possess their own Dragon Knight. Perhaps even the Mokong Dragon Knight would officially join Fenglong City because of this, elevating Fenglong City to a city with two Dragon Knights. At that point, Fenglong City would instantly leap into the top five among all cities, and the Huang family's status would naturally rise.
Most importantly, deep down, Huang Yuanlang's greatest hope was to marry one of these two! What was the Huang family's greatest strength? It was procreation. Huang Yuanlang thought to himself, since Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu had displayed such extraordinary talent, if he could bear offspring with one of "them," the progeny would naturally possess exceptional talent as well. That was the true foundation for the future greatness of the Huang family. This was also the crucial reason why Huang Daoqi was now eager to open the entire treasury of Fenglong City to Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu. He had sternly warned Huang Yuanlang not to harass the two easily, to let "them" focus more energy on cultivation, while also looking for opportunities to win "their" favor. No matter how long it took, in the end, "they" must become great women of the Huang family. And there was a full thousand years for this. Could you, Huang Yuanlang, really fail to accomplish this in a thousand years?
Under this pressure, Huang Yuanlang had recently been putting extraordinary effort into his cultivation. In the past, he would have spent more time on pleasure, thinking that since his talent was not that great, what was the point of working hard? Now, however, he no longer thought that way. Even if he could not reach a higher level in the future, at least he wanted Lan and Xiuxiu to see that he had a diligent attitude. A diligent version of himself should be more easily accepted by Lan and Xiuxiu. Therefore, it was not just Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu who had been training hard these past few days; Huang Yuanlang had also been very diligent. In five matches, his current record was three wins and two losses; he had won three. Although all his victories were against weaker opponents in his group, his increased fighting spirit had allowed him to surpass his own original expectations. Theoretically, he still had a chance to qualify and was not completely eliminated.
After breakfast, the three set off together, with the Rising Dragon Platform visible in the distance. Huang Yuanlang said in a low voice, "Lord Luo Gang should be coming to watch today, specifically to see your match against Xu Yanmo. The Ao Tian Dragon Knight should also come to watch. Lan, do your best! You can definitely defeat Xu Yanmo."
He had already seen the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head long ago. However, at that time, during the great battle, he had only caught a fleeting glimpse. As Little Trea's cultivation gradually recovered and his ability to mobilize immortal essence grew stronger, Little Trea told him that even if he faced the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head again, as long as the other party did not forcibly probe with Divine Sense, they would not discover his true identity. Apart from that, Lan Xuanyu had also seen the fifth-ranked Darkfiend Dragon Knight Luo Yayuan, the sixth-ranked Ao Tian Dragon Knight Long Chaoyang, and the seventh-ranked Mokong Dragon Knight Luo Lan. But he had yet to see the second-, third-, and fourth-ranked Dragon Knights. There was no doubt that the ranking of Dragon Knights was based on strength, and these Dragon Knights were most likely all Super God-level powerhouses.
He just did not know how their strength levels were classified beyond Super God. Back then, when Teacher Nana faced the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head, she had almost been unable to put up a fight, which showed just how powerful the other party was.
According to the historical records of Douluo Planet, Teacher Nana's strength should be roughly on par with Uncle Le's. Uncle Le had taken one step and entered the Super God level, so Teacher Nana should be a peak True God-level powerhouse. Yet even at the peak of True God, she could only barely protect herself and the others against a Super God-level Celestial Dragon. That meant that, within the Super God level, the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head was likely among the top. Do not forget, what had come back then was only his projection! Although the projection had also unleashed its full power, it had no sustained energy behind it. Most importantly, the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head was also a Dragon Knight, and the projection had not included his Dragon Mount. So, just how powerful would the Celestial Dragon Clan's Head, Tianlong, be when mounted on his Dragon Mount? Could he be approaching the legendary God Throne level?
The more he cultivated with the Dragon Force Tempering method, supplemented by dragon marrow and dragon crystals, the more reverence Lan Xuanyu felt for the dragon race. The Celestial Dragon Planet was truly a place that bred powerhouses. Although it had not yet reached the level of the Divine Realm, its abundance of resources was probably not far from that level. He soared into the air and flew toward the massive Rising Dragon Platform. During the flight, his spiritual sea suddenly rippled slightly. Subconsciously, he fixed his gaze on the dragon core within his spiritual sea, and an extraordinary sensation emerged. A gentle suction force seemed to be emanating from the Rising Dragon Platform ahead, pulling his body closer to it.
This was…
Lan Xuanyu's heart shuddered, and he immediately realized what was happening. He adjusted his flight angle, bringing himself closer to the Rising Dragon Platform. Because the Rising Dragon Platform was wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, dragons usually flew farther away from it when ascending, so that the flight distance would be shorter. Lan Xuanyu's sudden adjustment of angle startled Huang Yuanlang and Bai Xiuxiu slightly. But they did not think much of it and followed beside him, drawing nearer to the platform.
As he drew closer, Lan Xuanyu's sensation grew even stronger. Vaguely, in time with his own breathing, he sensed that something within the Rising Dragon Platform seemed to be resonating with his breath.
