Chapter 283: Crazy Ascension

After the divine dragons all returned to the stone pillar, the pillar began to quake violently, emitting a humming sound.

Immediately, from within the pillar, a stream of five‑colored divine dragons emerged, lunging at Ye Liuyun with snarling claws.

Ye Liuyun raised his hand, sliced with a single strike, cleaving them in half. The slain five‑colored divine dragons then turned into a swirl of five‑colored light mist that surged into Ye Liuyun's body.

He instantly felt his Physical Body power being enhanced. This sensation was far better than cultivating the Immortal Overlord Body, and crucially it came without any pain.

The feeling was so wonderful that Ye Liuyun immediately kept slashing the five‑colored divine dragons, absorbing the light clusters.

As the number of five‑colored divine dragons grew, Ye Liuyun simultaneously enlarged the Nine Dragons Mountain‑flipping Seal and the Nine Dragon River Mountain Cauldron, hurling them at the dragons; each strike killed a large swath.

Now, with a single slash, all the five‑colored divine dragons aligned on a line were cut down together.

After cutting for most of the day, Ye Liuyun's True Essence was exhausted. Lacking time to replenish, he relied solely on blade intent and Heaven and Earth Power to continue slashing, using his Physical Body to stubbornly withstand the dragons' attacks.

Although occasionally struck by the five‑colored dragons, his current defense had more than doubled; even if a dragon shattered his body, it would instantly recover.

Therefore he didn't call a stop; on the contrary he fought with great vigor, as if he knew no fatigue. Even the nine dragons who saw it were full of amazement. They hadn't expected Ye Liuyun could persist for so long.

He wielded the Nine Dragons Mountain‑flipping Seal and the Nine Dragon River Mountain Cauldron with even greater skill, continuously smashing them down. The arena was filled with swirling five‑colored light.

At the same time, he kept absorbing Spirit Stones from the Storage Ring, restoring his True Essence.

When his True Essence recovered, he swung the Demon Slaying Sword, sending it out to slay enemies, while he took the opportunity to practice the Overbearing Heaven Fist.

Now a single punch from him could obliterate an entire front of five‑colored divine dragons.

He had already practiced the third, fourth, and fifth moves of the Overbearing Heaven Divine Fist, then began absorbing Spirit Stones again, preparing to train the sixth move.

He now realized that even the fifth move only consumed twenty percent of his Bloodline Power. He wanted to use more, but had no room to exert it.

"It seems those divine dragons' Souls were right; I was too inexperienced before! I thought I had reached the end of cultivation. Looks like my technique also needs improvement. I need a stronger method!"

Ye Liuyun, while recovering, contemplated the sixth strike of the Overbearing Heaven Fist. Once his True Essence was restored, he delivered a punch.

"Boom"—a deafening crash that made the whole space tremble! All the five‑colored divine dragons before Ye Liuyun were shattered by that punch, turning into individual five‑colored light clusters that surged into his body.

Then he struck two more punches in other directions, each with the same effect.

However, after three punches, his True Essence was depleted again.

Helpless, Ye Liuyun had to keep fighting while taking the Hell Mingshe's Primordial Pill to absorb. He dared not absorb more Spirit Stones, fearing they would run short later.

Thus, Ye Liuyun fought continuously for two days and two nights, until the Formation finally ceased on its own.

"Why did it stop?" Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

At that moment, several divine dragons' Souls emerged, speaking wearily: "We are all in Soul state; if we keep pushing, it will damage our fundamentals. Rest first, improve other aspects, and if time permits later, we'll help you reactivate the Formation."

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun promptly expressed his gratitude. From their looks, he knew they were heavily fatigued.

In fact, his Physical Body was now far stronger than before. Relying solely on Physical Body power, he could contend with Martial Cultivators of second to third level Primordial Pills.

Moreover, due to the continual depletion and replenishment of True Essence, after repeated hammering his realm stabilized at Sea Transformation, Ninth Layer Mid Stage.

Next, the fire dragon guided him to strengthen the Holy Fire's power.

The fire dragon had him try attacking it with Golden Crow Holy Fire, while it spewed a true fire. As a result, Ye Liuyun's Golden Crow Holy Fire was instantly devoured by the fire dragon's true fire.

"See? Your Golden Crow Holy Fire isn't refined enough. Normally it's far stronger than my true fire, but you can't unleash its power."

Then the fire dragon taught him how to refine the Holy Fire while releasing true fire for him to absorb.

At first he couldn't absorb much at once, lest the Golden Crow Holy Fire be swallowed, so the pace was very slow.

Thus he also enlisted the black dragon to help him enhance his technique.

"I've seen your Overbearing Heaven Fist, but its power is insufficient; you need to alter some of the technique's pathways. Incorporate more spatial power into your finger techniques to achieve surprise effects. Your body movement is already complete, but your grasp of spatial power is weak—keep cultivating it. Also, I'll teach you a Divine Dragon Claw to enrich your repertoire."

Speaking thus, the black dragon used Divine Sense to transmit some technique data to him, letting him practice accordingly.

In the following time, Ye Liuyun simultaneously comprehended the new techniques and absorbed the flame's power.

Two days later, not only had the flame's power become more refined, but he had also mastered all the techniques, and demonstrated them on the spot.

With the improved Overbearing Heaven Fist, he used only ten percent of his Bloodline Power; the third move nearly consumed half his True Essence. At this stage, a single punch could produce the effect of the original sixth move.

Moreover, as his flame power rose, after a punch he directly tore the space, creating a terrifying void fissure that opened a huge maw and only fully closed after half a day.

"Ha ha! How's that? Your Overbearing Heaven Fist should be renamed Overbearing Heaven Divine Fist!" the black dragon said satisfiedly.

"Thanks for the senior's teachings!" Ye Liuyun gratefully replied.

"And the Divine Dragon Claw, how have you practiced it?" the black dragon asked.

Ye Liuyun immediately demonstrated. When he unleashed the Divine Dragon Claw, a massive pale gold dragon claw materialized in the air, reaching forward.

The black dragon also projected a black dragon claw, colliding with Ye Liuyun's; in an instant it shattered Ye Liuyun's pale gold claw.

"The technique is fine; it's just the True Essence that's too weak!" the black dragon nodded approvingly.

"My realm has always been a hindrance!" Ye Liuyun said helplessly. "Each advancement demands too much energy to sustain!"

"Come here, little one, I'll help you boost it," the purple dragon called from afar.

He thanked the black dragon again and hurried toward the purple dragon.

He saw Lei Ming, discovering that Lei Ming was absorbing the purple dragon's thunder‑electric power, and his realm had already risen to the fourth level Primordial Pill.

"I have an Origin Primordial Pill here; take it to absorb, I have no use for it," the purple dragon explained: "Your realm's advancement is indeed difficult, because your Qi Sea is over ten times larger than ordinary, and your True Essence has already pre‑converted. Thus even with a low realm, you can challenge across levels."

Ye Liuyun didn't take it outright; instead he asked concernedly, "If I take your Origin Primordial Pill, will it affect you in any way?"

"Ha ha! You have a conscience, kid! I'm dead, only a wisp of Soul remains, the Origin Primordial Pill is useless to me, so it's yours! Don't worry, it won't affect me!"

Ye Liuyun knew that the true dragons' kindness owed to the Ten Thousand Gods Command, yet he remained deeply grateful to these seniors.

In these few days he gained benefits far exceeding what his years of cultivation alone could yield! Had he explored on his own, such rapid results would have been impossible.
