Chapter 1164 - 1164: Let It Fly for a While

It takes a hundred years for a flood dragon to transform into a dragon.

But these hundred years are not simply a numerical matter; they also require enduring numerous tribulations.

Just like a Martial Artist's realm, beneath the Emperor Realm are mere ants.

In the presence of a True Dragon, be it a flood dragon or a python, it is nothing but a worm!

A golden dragon's phantom completely engulfed Liu Zixuan, placing him at the most critical position of the golden dragon.

At this moment, he is the dragon, and the dragon is him!

The black giant flood dragon, sensing the ancient primordial chaos aura emanating from the golden dragon, showed intense fear in its eyes, and its body involuntarily trembled.

The dragon is not a True Dragon, but a manifestation of the Power of the Dragon Veins, which requires several hundred or even thousands of years to evolve, naturally possessing an ancient aura.

As for the flood dragon, although it has been refined by the Netherworld Emperor, it still retains the memories from when it was a flood dragon.

In a sense, any fierce beast or wild beast—even an Auspicious Beast like a Qilin—instinctively feels fear when facing a dragon.

The appearance of the golden dragon phantom not only terrified the black giant flood dragon but also shocked the powerhouses of both observing forces below.

Is this still the Liu Zixuan they once looked down upon?

Is this still the young man who supposedly grew up taking elixirs?

Before the war, the powerhouses from the Hidden Sect and Hidden Family both treated Liu Zixuan as a mere decoration, believing he would hold them back, a small figure with no real influence.

But now, he first saved them, then subdued a group of Dragon Spirit powerhouses with a powerful array.

If not for this, he even blocked the giant flood dragon's attack that they thought unstoppable.

And now, transforming into a dragon form, he holds the upper hand in front of the black giant flood dragon!

In his early twenties, practicing for merely a dozen years, only six months ago did he just barely step into the Innate Emperor Realm, and now, though he's at the Innate Emperor Realm Third Heaven like some of them, the power he displays far surpasses theirs.

Furthermore, he has shown through actions that have slapped their faces hard.

Liu Zixuan is still in the Star Sea, a formidable force that cannot be underestimated or ignored.

The Netherworld Emperor's expression shifted, growing more sullen: "If this kid is not eliminated now, he will surely become the greatest hindrance to my Netherworld Hall in the future. Liu Zixuan, it would be fine if you didn't expose your strength today, you could sneak away quietly. But now that you've exposed yourself, you must die!"

"Is that so?"

Suspended in mid-air, Liu Zixuan's tone was filled with a cold finess, "Are you planning to show your trump card and gamble everything against me?"

"Netherworld Giant Flood Dragon, return!" The Netherworld Emperor realized that his pet flood dragon was no longer a threat to Liu Zixuan.

"I told you, you should have found a proper grave for it!"

Within the golden dragon phantom, Liu Zixuan lowered his voice and suddenly raised his arm, manipulating the dragon claws towards the giant flood dragon.

Two golden claws seized the flood dragon's head and tail, and with a loud roar, tore the black giant flood dragon in half!

"Roar!"

The pain of being torn apart made the black giant flood dragon emit waves of miserable wails, but due to being refined by the Netherworld Emperor, this split shell didn't immediately perish.

"Liu Zixuan, for killing my flood dragon, I will crush you into pieces!"

The Netherworld Emperor was enraged, for the first time the smile on his face vanished, replaced by fury, soaring towards Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan's expression stiffened; he knew the Netherworld Emperor was not like the flood dragon and would not be easily defeated!

The golden dragon phantom shifted, transforming into two solid attacks, crushing the two sections of the giant flood dragon into powder, making it vanish completely into Heaven and Earth.

And at this moment, the Netherworld Emperor had already attacked, throwing his right fist forward. Though he hadn't reached Liu Zixuan yet, it felt as if a massive mountain was pressing against his chest.

The pure aura alone almost suffocating proved the Netherworld Emperor's formidable strength!

"Collect!"

Liu Zixuan growled lowly, pulling all Power of the Dragon Veins into his body, then flicking his fingers explosively in all directions.

"What trick are you playing now?" The Netherworld Emperor sneered while attacking.

"Big Dipper Array! Form!"

Before the battle, Liu Zixuan had already sent Gu Yu to lead the little Divine Maiden Tongtong to Yudou Mountain Range to set up the complete Big Dipper Array. This array, which Liu Zixuan and Tongtong jointly upgraded, aimed to handle the Netherworld Hall's experts.

Now, this scoundrel attacked directly, without giving Liu Zixuan a chance to play his trump card, forcing him to activate the array first.

As his voice fell, several binding-like attacks suddenly swept towards the Netherworld Emperor.

Fast as lightning, on the verge of catching up with the Netherworld Emperor's attack.

Swoosh!

Less than two meters from Liu Zixuan, the Big Dipper Array fully formed, completely trapping the Netherworld Emperor within.

Looking at the traces of the array around him, the Netherworld Emperor chuckled mockingly: "This array does have some intricacies. Seems you've arranged it quite a while ago!"

"A while ago? Could it be that Liu Zixuan and the others had long known of the Netherworld Emperor's power? So they prepared it in advance?"

"Such foresight, it's beyond what you and I can compare!"

Upon hearing this, those powerhouses from the Hidden Sect all showed a hint of shame.

Until now, they were wholeheartedly convinced by Liu Zixuan.

At the same time, ashamed of their previous pretentiousness, feeling deeply inferior!

Liu Zixuan replied, "I prepared beforehand; didn't you?"

"The preparation I've made isn't urgent to use yet."

The Netherworld Emperor sneered lightly, easily evading the attacks of the Big Dipper Array, saying, "This array should rely on the stars in the sky. If the power of the stars were maximized at night, it might hurt me slightly. But now, under the scorching sun, do you think the Star Array is of much use?"

"Trapping you temporarily is enough!"

With that said, Liu Zixuan maneuvered his form and retreated violently to the rear.

Seeing the battle about to conclude with Zhao Yi, he thought directly to withdraw the array confining the Dragon Spirit powerhouses, and before those people realized what happened, several Ghost Gate Needles appeared abruptly, ending their lives instantly!

"Brother Xuan, what's next?" Zhao Yi approached and asked.

"Keep an eye on the Netherworld Emperor for me; I need to get the sword."

"The Nameless Sword? Isn't it in Lingxiu Village? It seems impossible to return to Lingxiu Village at this moment!" Zhao Yi murmured in dismay.

"Of course, no need to return to Lingxiu Village now."

"Then what? Can it fly over here?"

Liu Zixuan smiled mysteriously, "Exactly, let it fly for a while first!"
