Chapter 1142: Chapter 1142: Condensation
With the Treasure Hunting Beast acting as a transfer station, all members of the Thirty-Three Skywing could benefit, which would definitely be advantageous for everyone’s Cultivation.
Lan Xuanyu made a quick decision, immediately ceased his Dragon Power Refining, and focused all his energy on gathering the Dragon Qi in the air, condensing it into Dragon Power Liquid through the Bloodline Whirlpool.
At this time, the battles in the Ten Major Battle Zones were still fiercely underway. Almost everyone’s attention was on the battlefield, yet very few noticed that around Lan Xuanyu, the Dragon Qi in the air was converging towards him like a river flowing into the sea.
This Dragon Qi came from God Rank members of the Dragon Clan, offering benefits to the younger generation on the field. Anyone could absorb it, but someone absorbing it like Lan Xuanyu was truly unprecedented.
Soon, someone noticed his situation.
Moke Dragon Knight Luo Lan and Holy Light Dragon Knight Huang Liangwei, seated cross-legged at the top of a green dragon-power pillar, almost instantly turned their gaze towards Lan Xuanyu.
...
“Eh.” Huang Liangwei uttered in surprise, then turned to look at Luo Lan again, “Your man?”
Luo Lan glanced at him but seemed too lazy to answer, remaining silent. However, a slight look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
Actually, even he had not expected that, with just a bit of his own guidance, Xuanyu would discover the method of condensing gas into liquid. Normally, this was a capability only God Ranked Dragon Clans possessed.
Xuanyu’s cultivation was still far from God Rank, yet he had managed to understand this—this was not just about comprehension. It must have been because his foundation was solid, his Spiritual Power was strong, and he was possibly already nearing divine conscious level.
This Lan was truly making him more and more satisfied, proving that he had not chosen wrong initially. Especially considering Lan’s high-grade bloodline aura. The Dark Dragon Knight had made the same judgment when he became leader of the Ascending Dragons. Xuanyu’s aura, during his communication with the Dragon Realm, resonated intensely—a rarity even among the Dragon Clan, proving his dragon bloodline was extraordinarily pure, possibly even purer than the present Dragon Knights.
However, for the Dragon Clan, unless one reached the God Rank, there was still a far way to go. Thus, even though the Dark Dragon Knight reported Lan Xuanyu’s situation, the higher-ups just decided to continue observing. If he could win this time, they would allow him a visit to the Dragon Realm to see if additional changes might occur.
“His absorption of Dragon Qi is lessening others’ gains,” Huang Liangwei remarked faintly.
Luo Lan finally spoke, “This is meant to be a stage for them to showcase themselves. The competition and battles are one aspect, and what happens beyond the battles is another. It’s all based on their own abilities. If others haven’t noticed his method and let him reap the most benefits, it only indicates their foolishness.”
“Hmph,” Huang Liangwei snorted coldly, not speaking further.
The Dragon Clan has always revered the strong, so Luo Lan was not wrong. According to the rules of the Dragon Clan, it was supposed to be this way. Among the competitors, those who could stand out were regarded as the strongest.
However, they didn’t have to wait too long before contestants started to notice something unusual about Lan Xuanyu.
The first to find out was Xu Yanmo, who had been Bai Xiuxiu’s opponent earlier.
Xu Yanmo looked towards Lan Xuanyu’s direction with some surprise, as he was also in meditation after his match. Gradually, he noticed that the Dragon Qi he was absorbing seemed to be thinning. While it didn’t affect his Bloodline Refining, this thinning of Dragon Qi felt somewhat off!
When he opened his eyes, he quickly found the source. In his perception, the Dragon Qi, like strands of energy, swirled around Lan Xuanyu, condensing towards her body.
“How can ‘she’ absorb so much Dragon Qi? Isn’t she afraid of bursting?”
While Xu Yanmo felt puzzled, he also immediately increased his absorption and storage of Dragon Qi. This Dragon Qi, emitted by the God-level Dragon Clan, was extremely precious, and he aimed to absorb as much as possible. Although he didn’t know how Lan Xuanyu managed to absorb so much, he couldn’t relax at this moment. He at least had to create some interference for “her.”
After the first battle, Xu Yanmo had already regarded Lan Xuanyu as one of his biggest competitors in his group. He was also highly wary of Lan Xuanyu’s recent Dragon God Shaking attack. He still didn’t understand how that attack was released, which had produced such tremendous Attack Power.
However, there was no need for him to do anything; his family would naturally contact Lin Zexuan to inquire about the specifics. Being a Mid-rank Dragon Clan member without substantial powerful backing, Lin Zexuan had no choice but to reveal everything.
Xu Yanmo realized this, and soon, others also gradually noticed the situation on Lan Xuanyu’s side. The Dragon Qi on the Ascending Dragon Platform was rapidly flowing in one direction, which was somewhat obvious.
Suddenly, many members of the Dragon Clan chose to sit cross-legged and started absorbing Dragon Qi, interfering with the absorption on Lan Xuanyu’s side.
Lan Xuanyu naturally felt it too. He opened his eyes and glanced around, observing that due to the collective absorption by many of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Qi on the Ascending Dragon Platform was now becoming chaotic. Although he was still absorbing a lot, the speed was evidently not as fast as before.
“Causing trouble?”
Lan Xuanyu didn’t believe that all these Dragon Clan members could convert Dragon Qi into Dragon Power Liquid. However, these individuals were clearly engaging in self-destructive behavior, simply to prevent him from absorbing enough. Stirring up the Dragon Qi was indeed affecting him.
“But, is this effective?”
Lan Xuanyu took Bai Xiuxiu’s hands in front of him, their palms facing each other. The next moment, a circle of golden radiance spread from beneath him, manifesting the Golden Dragon Rage Domain. Suddenly, a blinding golden light burst out from around them, and a low dragon roar enveloped their bodies. A massive amount of Dragon Qi was forcibly drawn over, releasing a savage aura with deep malice, shaking the surrounding Dragon Qi.
Those from the Dragon Clan who were closer to Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were most affected, with a deep-rooted fear emanating from their bloodlines significantly diminishing their absorption efficiency. And the originally invisible Dragon Qi, under the forcible pulling by Lan Xuanyu, gradually turned into white streams of air rushing toward him.
Lan Xuanyu directed the Dragon Power Liquid to the palms of his hands and then slowly injected it into Bai Xiuxiu, settling it within her Dantian. The Dragon Power Liquid was very stable and would remain in liquid form stored indefinitely as long as it wasn’t stimulated by bloodline power. Lan Xuanyu was using Bai Xiuxiu’s body as a container, making it easier for him to absorb and store more Dragon Power Liquid.
For a while, his absorption rate, instead of slowing down due to the surrounding interference, became even faster than before, inevitably causing those who were interfering to feel somewhat helpless.
“Is he being this domineering?”
If Lan Xuanyu had been male, they would definitely have had a clear strategy. But now, Lan was a “female” and not just any female, but the renowned, stunningly beautiful Golden Dragon Princess.
Although her actions could be domineering, both her strength and appearance were enough to move them. For a moment, some male members of the Dragon Clan had voluntarily stopped absorbing Dragon Qi. After all, for them, completing the competition was more important. What if they were affected by Lan Xuanyu’s interference during the absorption and it influenced their own bloodline aura, causing them to lose in the subsequent competition?
Thus, Lan Xuanyu continued to absorb in such a domineering manner, absorbing while straightforwardly storing it.
Seeing this scene, the Holy Light Dragon Knight couldn’t help but snort, “A tree that stands out in the forest is easily destroyed by the wind.”
In retort, the Moke Dragon Knight, Luo Lan, mockingly said, “Only mediocrity is safe from envy.”
