Gu Yifeng frowned slightly upon seeing this, not expecting the dispute between dragonmen and pure-blooded wood dragons to have escalated to such a degree.
"It seems you two are quite confident in your abilities?"
Gu Yifeng pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow at the two of them and spoke in a cold voice.
"Hahaha, kid, I advise you not to flatter yourself. You might be able to beat these bastards, but that doesn't mean you can beat us."
The man who had spoken earlier mocked again, showing no mercy to Gu Yifeng.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yifeng said nothing more. With a snap of his fingers, two avatars appeared beside him. As the Wood Spirit Ring flashed, a wooden longsword appeared in the hands of the two avatars.
Then, three figures rushed out simultaneously, each unleashing a strike of the Time Sword Technique. With the three swords striking at once, the flow of the entire space slowed down considerably.
Before the two transformed wood dragons could react, their movements were forced to slow down, almost coming to a standstill.
The slow flow of time lasted only a moment. The next instant, the sword light slashed across the faces of the two men. The three swords merged into one, leaving only a scratch on their faces and a year's worth of lifespan.
This was the power of the Time Sword Technique. By the time the two came to their senses, Gu Yifeng had already returned to his original spot, calmly watching them.
"I'll give you two options: First, hand over the token and ten drops of essence blood; second, crush the token now and leave the trial grounds."
Gu Yifeng spoke slowly, his spiritual power gathering and ready to be unleashed. A pressure from the early stage of the Condensation Realm spread out, and the power it brought to the two of them was no less than that of a cultivator in the Void Realm.
Under the overwhelming force of their combat power, the two pure-blooded wood dragons had no chance to resist before they chose to compromise and hand over the tokens. Then, one of them forced out ten drops of blood essence to drip onto Gu Yifeng's token.
In just a moment, his token broke through to the gold color, becoming extremely rich, and was just one step away from transforming into amethyst.
"Do you two know where the rest of the Wood Dragon clan went?"
Gu Yifeng looked at the two of them and asked.
"Brother, they've all gone to the First Forbidden Area together. Although you can enter with a wooden token, it doesn't mean the rewards will be lower than the others; it just means the danger is lower."
"Moreover, the clan also has records that if one wants to obtain the Azure Dragon inheritance, the first forbidden pass must be broken."
The two immediately explained to Gu Yifeng that, after all these years, very few outsiders have been able to enter the Wood Dragon Clan's trial grounds, so those who have been able to enter are all entrusted with great trust.
That's why the two of them revealed this secret.
"Take your tokens and form your own teams. No fighting among yourselves. I'll go and scout things out."
Gu Yifeng narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, and then headed straight for the first forbidden area marked on the map.
With the Meteor Sword Technique in hand, combined with the Free and Easy Movement Technique, his figure instantly exceeded the speed of sound, transforming into a streak of light. In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he crossed a small section of the trial grounds and arrived at a mountain stream.
Holding the token, a golden light flashed, and Gu Yifeng disappeared from his original spot, arriving in the mountain stream, where a blue dragon mark was engraved on the stone slab.
With a single wisp of spiritual energy, the Azure Dragon Mark was instantly activated, and a phantom of an Azure Dragon appeared before him, finally solidifying slowly. Its eyes were tightly closed, and its lifelike aura was suffocating.
"The first forbidden area is open. Defeat the Azure Dragon phantom and receive rewards based on your score."
A cold voice rang out, and before Gu Yifeng could even react, a breath burst forth, instantly enveloping him.
The scorching dragon breath lasted for a full three breaths before stopping. Fortunately, the Ice Phoenix Flame within Gu Yifeng's body was there, and it took 20% of his spiritual power to neutralize it.
As the dragon's breath dissipated, Gu Yifeng instantly retreated, unleashing the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique. Three figures erupted simultaneously, unleashing the Meteor Sword Technique, with streaks of sword light flashing like meteors.
The illusory azure dragon glared angrily, and with a flick of its tail, it shattered the sword light. Suddenly, vines burst forth from the ground, binding Gu Yifeng's limbs.
A powerful aura from the Tai Xu Realm was released, completely cutting off his escape route.
Who would have thought that this azure dragon phantom would possess the power of the Taixu Realm? Gu Yifeng was also startled by the sudden release of pressure, having not sensed the power of the Taixu Realm at all just now.
As the oppressive aura spread, a green light shone from the horns of the Azure Dragon phantom, followed by a bolt of emerald lightning.
"Damn it, is the first forbidden move really that difficult?!"
Gu Yifeng cursed angrily. Facing the Taixu Realm, his current combat power was simply not enough. The tattoo on his right arm flashed, and a green light instantly covered his entire body.
"Burying the flowers!"
Faced with the threat of death, Gu Yifeng had no choice but to activate the power of the Azure Dragon Holy Armor. A continuous stream of power surged out from his body, instantly freeing him from the vines' restraints.
Unconsciously, he uttered two words, and endless tree branches appeared behind him, surging out like ocean waves, directly swallowing the lightning. This was only the beginning. After the lightning, the sea of trees began to coil around the illusory image of the Azure Dragon.
"A grand funeral for the tree waterfall!"
With another low shout, more branches sprouted, each with a thick trunk as thick as a person. At this moment, the entire mountain stream was occupied by branches, like surging waves, directly engulfing the illusory image of the Azure Dragon.
Then, within this sea of trees, the power of individual tree branches erupted, not to devour, but to explode, with terrifying force enough to bury everything within the sea of trees.
This is Azure Dragon's technique; even though it's only a few attack methods, it's enough to handle most battles.
If they don't act, all is well; but once they do, it will be fatal.
Within Gu Yifeng's perception, the aura of the Azure Dragon phantom had dissipated. With a thought, the sea of trees vanished, and looking back at the location of the Azure Dragon mark, a drop of incredibly emerald green water flew out and merged into his body.
A tremendous force exploded directly within Gu Yifeng's body.
"First forbidden technique, Azure Dragon Blood, released!"
A gentle voice rang out, and Gu Yifeng was completely bewildered. Before he could say anything, he was knocked unconscious by the immense power within his body.
When he regained consciousness, he was already outside the mountain stream, where a group of dragon people were gathered around him, full of curiosity.
"Big brother, you're awake? How did you end up unconscious outside the First Forbidden Area?"
The group of dragon people were overjoyed to see Gu Yifeng awake and immediately asked in unison.
Since he defeated the direct descendants of the Wood Dragon in just a few rounds, these dragon people have truly regarded him as their elder brother. After all, there are few people on Azure Dragon Island with the same temperament as Mu Chenzi.
"It's alright, I think I've passed the final test of the First Forbidden Zone."
Gu Yifeng murmured to himself, still a little dazed from just waking up. He looked at the azure dragon mark on his forearm, which now seemed incredibly lifelike and emerald green.
According to the information from the Hidden Eye, the Azure Dragon Holy Cloth requires a ten-day cooldown period after use.
