The puppet dragon suddenly stopped what it was doing, and everyone was drawn to the scene.
"Such pure lightning attribute."
"If I remember correctly, this young man just used fire and ice elements. I didn't expect him to also use lightning. If I'm not mistaken, he should have three spiritual roots."
"The fact that each of the three spiritual roots can be cultivated so purely indicates extremely high talent."
"······"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, and even Jiang Xin's opinion of Ji Jiuying had changed. She had initially thought that Ji Jiuying had no spiritual power, but she hadn't expected her talent to be so high.
Ji Jiuying stared intently at the dragon before her and shouted, "Teleport all those with lightning attributes to me!"
Hei Xiangling and Yin Han understood each other perfectly and flashed in front of Ji Jiuying to help her fend off the puppet dragon's attacks.
Feng Che flew up behind Ji Jiuying, gathering lightning energy and slowly transmitting it to her. Those who had been discussing the matter rushed to help. Of course they came; the more effort they put in, the more spiritual energy they would receive.
She possesses the power of lightning for teleportation, but lacks the protective spiritual energy of lightning for teleportation.
A massive ball of lightning gathered above Ji Jiuying, crackling with countless bolts of lightning. A bloodthirsty glint flashed in her clear, deep eyes, and a slight smile played on her lips, making her appear like a demon who reigns supreme over life. Crimson blood stained her lips and robes, and though her face remained calm and composed, her eyes were filled with murderous intent. Her aura, so powerful that it seemed like she could hold off ten thousand men, made anyone who saw her tremble with fear.
The puppet dragon seemed to see through everything they were doing and instantly flew into a rage.
As if using all her strength, Ji Jiuying unleashed all the lightning power above her head onto the crowd, and roared, "Get out of the way!"
Hei Xiangling and Yin Han reacted extremely quickly, and before Ji Jiuying could even finish speaking, they had already vanished.
Bang!
The two bolts of lightning collided, sparks flying everywhere, causing everyone to instinctively close their eyes. The aftershocks of the power spread throughout the Dragon Palace, as if the entire earth was trembling.
Those cultivating in the Spirit Gathering Tower suddenly opened their eyes. Was this an earthquake?
Hua Li narrowed her eyes, a glint of unfathomable light flashing within them. It seemed they weren't so lucky after all.
Feng Yu frowned. Could this commotion have been caused by his second uncle and the others?
——
The force of the impact sent everyone flying, and they all fell to the ground.
Ji Jiuying fell against a wall of flesh, and Jiang Ling caught her. By sheer coincidence, his hand landed on her buttocks. Before Jiang Ling could react, he felt a delicate fragrance waft into his nostrils, and as if possessed, he pinched it with his hand.
The soft touch instantly brought Jiang Ling back to her senses.
"······"
The sensation from her buttocks startled Ji Jiuying for a moment. Her eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly got up despite her injuries.
As the smoke cleared, the people gradually got up from the ground, and the dragon had disappeared.
Jiang Ling glanced at Ji Jiuying, only to see that her eyes seemed to hold endless killing intent, sending a chill down his spine. But... how could a grown man be so soft-hearted...?
Jiang Ling stared at the large hand, as if recalling what had just happened, but a gasp interrupted his thoughts.
"It's spiritual energy, and also dragon soul energy!"
Everyone was overjoyed and, disregarding their injuries, quickly sat down to cultivate. Ji Jiuying was no exception. However, only Hei Xiangling was sullen. Why were they all fake dragons? There wasn't a single real dragon in sight!
She wants to eat a dragon! She wants to eat a dragon!
Ji Jiuying glanced at Hei Xiangling and patted her shoulder, "Xiangling, don't worry."
"I understand, you brat, hurry up and cultivate. This lightning-attribute dragon energy will benefit you." Hei Xiangling didn't want to delay the brat's improvement because of herself.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying also calmed down and began to cultivate.
While they were all cultivating, Hei Xiangling wandered around the Dragon Palace, trying to find an exit, but she was disappointed.
Could it be that there would be an exit only after they had absorbed all the spiritual energy? Just as Hei Xiangling was about to return to Ji Jiuying's side, a majestic, hoarse voice rang in her mind.
“You remnant of the Kunpeng clan, how dare you invade the Dragon Clan?”
Hei Xiangling looked around warily. "Who? Who's playing tricks?"
"Hmph, remnants of the Kunpeng clan! You dare trespass into the Dragon Clan? You will pay with your life, as will the human you made a pact with..."
Hei Xiangling was shocked, her eyes filled with endless killing intent: "How dare you threaten this Holy Venerable!"
"Old man, come out if you dare!"
"You dare not come out? If you dare to do anything to the girl, then your Dragon Palace will cease to exist!"
The voice in the void showed no fear, but instead chuckled softly: "What you heard was one of my souls, a member of the Kunpeng clan. Once you enter this Dragon Clan Secret Realm, you won't be able to leave, including you and that human..."
Hahahaha
A burst of laughter came from the void. Hei Xiangling was furious, but she quickly calmed down and curled her lips slightly: "Old thing, since that's the case, then the Azure Dragon left here... this Holy Venerable will not be polite."
As she spoke, Hei Xiangling deliberately licked her lips, making a smacking sound.
Upon hearing this, the dragon soul in the void twitched its whiskers a few times. "Damn Kunpeng clan, they are indeed treacherous and cunning!" But then it thought of something and became smug. "The Azure Dragon's hiding place is not something that just anyone can know. Maybe this damned Kunpeng deliberately bombed him."
"What Azure Dragon? I have no idea."
Hei Xiangling snorted coldly. She could sense his change from the moment he mentioned the Azure Dragon, which further confirmed her suspicions.
"Old man, keep pretending. Don't come crying to this holy venerable one later..."
At this moment, the voices in the void ceased, and some people in the crowd woke up. Hei Xiangling glanced around, completely ignoring the old man's words.
She's the dragon's number one natural enemy, how could she possibly be afraid of a dragon? But... she has to keep a close eye on that brat from now on, lest she get accidentally hurt by these old fogies.
Scattered sounds came, and one by one, all these people woke up.
"I finally advanced!"
"Me too!"
"Although I did not advance, my strength at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage has been stabilized considerably."
"Brother, I've advanced to the early stage of Mahayana cultivation. How are you?"
Jiang Xin asked excitedly. Who knew how long she had been waiting to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, but she couldn't find an opportunity to do so. She never expected to advance in this secret realm. If her parents knew, they would definitely be happy for her.
Jiang Ling patted her head and smiled, "Congratulations, Xin'er. I didn't advance, but... I comprehended the lightning attribute."
Jiang Xingang was about to comfort him when she heard what he said next and froze on the spot!
He comprehended the lightning attribute? This attribute is something that comes naturally to the spirit bone. There's only a one in ten thousand chance of him comprehending other skills, and I never expected that one in ten thousand chance would fall on my brother's head.
