Chapter 1220 - 1217: Senior Brother, Dominating Saber Luo Feng!

Another quarter of an hour passed.

A roar!

A resounding dragon roar emanated from within Luo Feng, an overwhelming outburst of True Yuan shook the entire Ascending Dragon Platform, causing it to slightly tremble.

Whoosh...

Luo Feng exhaled a breath of turbid air and opened his eyes, his bright gaze akin to thunderous lightning, darting through the void, stinging everyone’s eyes.

"True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak!"

Feeling the mighty True Yuan within him, Luo Feng clenched his fists, unable to suppress the joy in his heart, almost wanting to shout out loud.

The benefits obtained after the Dragon Yuan Vein completely swallowed the dragon-shaped airflow were even more astonishing than he imagined.

The third transformation of Divine Dragon Nine Changes, Cloud Dragon Transformation, directly broke through from the third stage to the sixth stage, the Dragon Yuan Vein in the Dantian enlarged several tens of times, the True Yuan condensed several times! Affected by this, the cultivation progressed like a breakthrough, reaching the True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak in one go. If the dragon-shaped airflow hadn’t been exhausted, he would have prepared to make a decisive push to break through to the True Yuan Realm Third Stage.

"True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak!"

Hiss!

A gasp resounded across Group Dragon Island, everyone looked at Luo Feng with expressions full of shock.

In less than half an hour, Luo Feng’s cultivation unexpectedly advanced from the early stage of True Yuan Realm Second Stage all the way to the peak of the True Yuan Realm Second Stage.

Many couldn’t help but rub their eyes, thinking they were dreaming.

"What...what exactly is happening? Luo Feng’s cultivation actually broke through to the True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak!"

"Throughout history, during Dragon Vein Refining Body, it is not unheard of for martial artists to experience breakthroughs during the battle. But at most, they only elevate one realm of cultivation. Luo Feng, in a single breath, broke from the early stage of True Yuan Realm Second Stage all the way to the peak, an entire three realms! This is simply incredible."

"Have you noticed, the dragon-shaped airflow never emerged from Luo Feng’s body."

"Ah, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I almost forgot."

"Such things are unheard of. This person truly amazes; he consistently achieves what is unexpected. Compared to him, even Jian Wuji pales significantly."

Surprise, admiration, jealousy filled the crowd, but mostly, there was reverence.

Luo Feng’s strength and potential made most people not dare to harbor jealousy—only awe.

Jian Wuji too lost his usual composure, his eyes staring blankly.

He thought in all aspects he surpassed Luo Feng, that this competition was merely a temporary setback. However, seeing Luo Feng’s realm break through to the True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak now caused his confidence to waver.

The sun had completely sunk beneath the sea, leaving only the final twilight on the western sky, dyeing large swaths of clouds red.

The end of Dragon Vein Refining Body also marked the complete end of the New Dragon Rankings Assembly. The elder responsible for the competition roused True Yuan and loudly announced:

"Everyone, this year’s New Dragon Rankings Assembly has come to a successful conclusion. Tonight there will be a banquet, and you are all welcome to attend. If there’s urgent business, anyone wishing to return can first board the Dragon Boat to leave."

With the announcement, the six Hall Masters of the Golden Palace, along with the higher-ups, appeared on the Ascending Dragon Platform and began discussing the distribution of the twenty-four Yuan Spirit Veins.

The others started heading towards their residences.

It’s late now, the endless sea at night is filled with countless unknown dangers, coupled with everyone’s mood still immersed in the spectacular New Dragon Rankings Assembly, they’ve all decided to stay on the island peacefully for the night, and start back to the Canglang Dynasty tomorrow.

"This trip was truly worth it; who would’ve thought this year’s New Dragon Rankings Assembly would be so exciting."

"Exactly, had I not come, I would regret it for a lifetime. The duel between Luo Feng and Jian Wuji, even thinking back now, makes my blood boil. I may never witness such a thrilling match again."

"Hm. From today, Luo Feng has truly become famous. I wonder if the Nine Sacred Lands will take notice."

"That’s probably not easy. You might not know, last year’s New Dragon Rankings Assembly had a disciple from a Sacred Land, afterward Jian Wuji became the top new dragon, and the Hall Master of Sky Sword Pavilion wanted to recommend him for the Nine Sacred Lands. Do you know how that Sacred Land disciple evaluated Jian Wuji?"

"Stop teasing, just say it."

"The evaluation was only two words: ’Somewhat acceptable.’"

"Somewhat acceptable! Jian Wuji being merely ’somewhat acceptable’! That’s just too much."

"However, Luo Feng’s potential exceeds Jian Wuji’s. Perhaps he will receive a different evaluation."

Martial artists in groups of threes and fives walked the paths on the islands, heatedly discussing this session’s New Dragon Rankings Assembly.

Upon hearing the New Dragon Rankings Assembly was over, Luo Feng left the Dragon Column and headed towards Linglong Hall’s residence.

"Senior Brother!"

"Greetings, Senior Brother!"

"Congratulations on becoming the first new dragon, Senior Brother."

Seeing Luo Feng, the disciples of Linglong Hall present respectfully called him Senior Brother, their bright eyes filled with curiosity and admiration.

Now Luo Feng is the first new dragon; his cultivation reaching the True Yuan Realm Second Stage Peak, whether in reputation or strength, far surpasses the others from Linglong Hall, naturally replacing Senior Sister Yan Feihua to become Senior Brother.

Luo Feng smiled lightly and nodded.

At this moment, Yan Feihua, Yang Wanyi, Xia Yunjing, and others approached.

"Senior Brother," Yan Feihua smiled.

Luo Feng shook his head, "We’re not in the Golden Palace, no need to be so formal, just call me by my name."

Yan Feihua smiled softly, "That sounds good. When you said you wanted to become the first new dragon before, I thought you were joking. Didn’t expect you actually defeated Jian Wuji. Now, you’ve stirred quite a buzz; this news will surely spread throughout the entire Canglang Dynasty and even beyond."

Luo Feng touched his nose, "That exaggerated?"

"Of course."

Beside her, Yang Wanyi chimed in, "Defeating Jian Wuji, whose sword intent reached Great Accomplishment, was already very sensational. Additionally, while refining the Dragon Vein Body, you raced beyond others, even completely refining the Dragon Vein Qi surpassing all past New Dragon Rankings masters. Such an astonishing feat can’t be described merely as sensational. Many already view you as the first legendary genius of our Canglang Dynasty in a thousand years."

Yang Wanyi looked at Luo Feng, gentle eyes filled with traces of amusement, inwardly joyous at Luo Feng’s remarkable achievements.

"The first legendary genius in a thousand years?"

Luo Feng did not expect that refining the Dragon Vein Qi would earn him such high praise.

Yang Wanyi nodded, her eyes blinking as she said, "There’s something else; you now have a title in the triad. Can you guess what it is?"

"What is it?"

"Dominating Saber. It probably emerged when you defeated Jian Wuji and made those remarks. Dominating, the supreme of martial arts, is an extremely high evaluation. I feel this title suits you well."

"Dominating Saber..."

Luo Feng pondered briefly and nodded, feeling this title indeed very fitting.

Meanwhile, Shui Linglong and Gu Xifeng, several Linglong Hall seniors approached.

Examining Luo Feng momentarily, Shui Linglong smiled:

"The main island is about to submerge; let’s leave the island first."
