Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

Chapter 714: Azure Dragon Fist, Devouring Law

Ye Tianling’s Battle Power instantly shocked the scene into a dead silence.

No one knew how Ye Tianling had risen to prominence.

Many even believed that Ye Tianling had just been lucky, finding a place with abundant Dao Rhyme Fragments that allowed him to catch up and climb the ranks.

But this time, they understood with terrifying clarity just how monstrous his strength was!

He used no Weapon, nor did he unleash any Talent Divine Techniques. Yet, a single, casual punch, thrown as if he were taking a leisurely stroll, was enough to destroy everything.

An Unparalleled Celestial Dragon was, in the end, an Unparalleled Celestial Dragon!

Even if that Unparalleled Celestial Dragon had once been an utter idiot, a fool.

But once a Celestial Dragon rose, it was destined for a life of brilliance, radiating boundless light, invincible and unchallengeable.

The seven figures who had just charged out from the Celestial Road froze dead in the Void.

Their pupils all contracted violently, their eyes revealing utter horror as a chill ran through their bodies.

Cold sweat beaded on their smooth foreheads. When they looked at Ye Tianling again, their eyes were filled with deep apprehension and fear.

But Ye Tianling didn’t wait for them to make another move. He waved his hand and threw another punch.

With this punch, Ye Tianling faintly felt a sensation reminiscent of the Azure Dragon Fist. Acting on this feeling, he launched a strike that seemed capable of shattering the Heavenly Dao Laws themselves.

Like a clap of thunder, a deafening CRACK echoed through the clouds.

At that moment, even the Celestial Curtain in the sky dimmed, and the endless stars ceased to twinkle.

"PFFT PFFT PFFT PFFT PFFT PFFT PFFT—"

Suppressed by that single punch, the seven figures barely had time to react before the Fist Intent struck them.

With a great boom, their bodies exploded, turning directly into dust. They couldn’t be more dead.

Clusters of blood mist drifted in the sky. The seven figures hailed from different factions but had formed a small team, and nearly all of them were ranked in the top one hundred.

Yet, the moment they attacked Ye Tianling, they were all killed by his single punch!

The scene was simply too brutal!

Without any hesitation, Ye Tianling directly unleashed the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique, using his Totem Power to sweep the surrounding Void and devour the Essence, Qi, and Soul of the dead Cultivators.

Those clusters of blood mist quickly vanished into thin air.

It was a blatant act of Devouring, yet Ye Tianling showed no hesitation whatsoever!

It was far too intimidating, too terrifying!

This was Devouring!

Devouring!

"Rumor has it that the Unparalleled Celestial Dragon’s Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique possesses Devouring Power and contains the Devouring Law. I never thought it was actually true!"

"If he can kill and devour, doesn’t that mean he can directly seize the Talents of others? That’s horrifying! What kind of heaven-defying Cultivation Technique is this? Shouldn’t such an existence be rejected by the Celestial Dao?"

"The Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique only devours Essence, Qi, and Soul. It’s impossible for it to seize Talents. If it could, things would be out of control!"

"That’s right. The Dragon Race’s Unparalleled Celestial Dragon already possesses an unrivaled Talent of his own. Why would he even look twice at the inferior Talents of others? In front of an Unparalleled Celestial Dragon, those other Talents are nothing special, are they?"

"With this level of strength, he could probably contend with peerless prodigies like Ji Yun."

"We don’t know much about a prodigy like Divine Son Ji Yun, but he’s probably already on par with Qianyu Fairy."

"I’ve seen Qianyu Fairy in action. She’s not this ferocious. She’s strong, but I don’t think even she could kill Xiao Chen and his group of seven in a single blow, right?"

"The Devouring Law of the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique is just for devouring, Refinement, and absorbing some Energy. It’s basically the same as cultivating by absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. Furthermore, this kind of Devouring usually comes with negative emotions like bloodlust, destruction, brutality, mania, and resentment. It has a huge negative impact on one’s cultivation and mental state, so it’s not actually a good thing.

Therefore, most Dragon Race Cultivators won’t use techniques like the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique to devour Essence, Qi, and Soul. The gains don’t outweigh the losses.

This method of Devouring is even less effective than absorbing Demon Beasts and condensing Battle Souls in the True Void Divine Realm."

"Then what’s the point of this devouring ability? Based on what you’re saying, doesn’t that make the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique trash!"

"How could the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique be trash? The benefit of the Devouring Law is the ability to rapidly recover Battle Power. Although it has side effects, it allows one to fuel war with war! Besides, the Devouring Law can not only devour Essence, Qi, and Soul, but also the enemy’s powerful attacks, making it a formidable defensive ability as well! You have to understand, in a critical battle, an ability like this is what’s truly terrifying..."

"I see. As long as it can’t devour Talents, it’s fine."

...

Many Cultivators gradually grew accustomed to Ye Tianling’s power. Amidst their discussions, they began comparing him to Ji Yun and the others.

Before, although they knew Ye Tianling was an Unparalleled Celestial Dragon, they always felt he had only shown some potential by relying on his Weapon and Talent Divine Techniques.

Now, that perception had clearly changed.

Ye Tianling, however, paid them no mind.

He didn’t even immediately reunite with Ye Tianyun. Instead, he began to carve Primordial Runes to alter the altar.

’This is an ancient Teleportation Array. If I have enough Primordial Runes and Essence, Qi, and Soul Energy to power it, I can activate it. This Array definitely leads to the Hidden Dragon Demon Cave, but I need to consider where inside it leads.’

’The Hidden Dragon Demon Cave is a Forbidden Area of the Blood-Colored Wilderness? What does that imply? Why is it that after the restriction on the Hidden Dragon Demon Cave is lifted, and the Taiyin Ancient Tomb emerges, the Buried Soul Star Domain will completely synchronize with all the outer Star Domains? What Law needs to transform for this to happen? The flow of time in the Buried Soul Star Domain is much faster than in the outside world. Once, I passed through a Time Axis, and what felt like a few days was actually three years... Could it be that the Law that’s truly beginning to transform and fuse is the Time Law?

’Based on the calculations from my Mechanical Heart, the Time Law is a strong possibility.’

’If so, then entering the Hidden Dragon Demon Cave, mastering the changes in the Time Law, and further comprehending the Time Axis is the most important thing!’

As Ye Tianling pondered, a vast amount of Dao Rhyme Fragments—the ones collected by Xiao Chen and the other six—began to drift toward him following their complete demise.

The sight of this dense cloud of over one hundred thousand Dao Rhyme Fragments made the eyes of many Cultivators on the scene turn red with blatant desire.

With so many Dao Rhyme Fragments, anyone who seized them could instantly break into the top ten rankings!

Yet, at this moment, no one moved to snatch them. No one even dared to try—even though Ye Tianling wasn’t collecting the Dao Rhyme Fragments, but was instead continuing to condense Primordial Runes and alter the Dao Pattern Ancient Array on the altar.
