Chapter 1176: Anomaly of the Dragon Scales

Having said that, the young man with the giant sword casually discarded the broken sword in his hand and walked away, completely ignoring the shocked onlookers around him!

"Roar!"

A dragon’s roar resounded, and next to Ye Luo, it was as if the phantom of a Divine Dragon had appeared.

At this moment, everyone from Dragon Pavilion respectfully knelt beside Ye Luo, no longer daring to doubt his identity as the Divine Dragon Heir.

Ye Luo, however, could only helplessly look at the small Gold Dragon within his Dantian, feeling nothing but helplessness in his heart.

In fact, for this battle, Ye Luo had less than a thirty percent certainty, which was why his Battle Will was so surging.

And indeed, after engaging in combat, Ye Luo was no match.

But at the most critical moment, the Dragon Scales he had obtained from the Long Family automatically transformed into a pure form of strength and merged into Ye Luo’s body.

In truth, Ye Luo was not undergoing a Bloodline awakening but a Bloodline enhancement!

His enhancement was just a bit special, which was why there was such a great commotion.

Only now did Ye Luo truly realize just how powerful Ao Long was.

This was nothing more than a single scale of his, yet it possessed such terrifying strength!

The Dragon Scales directly merged into Ye Luo’s Bloodline; originally, Ao Long had intended for Ye Luo to use the Dragon Scales to strengthen his body.

However, unexpectedly, due to the frenzied battle, as well as Ye Luo’s terrifying Battle Will, a special power within the Dragon Scales was activated.

Divine Dragon Battle Will!

The Dragon Clan is unimaginably strong, and for this reason, even a single Dragon Scale possesses incredibly potent Spirituality.

It would have been another story if Ao Long were already dead.

The key point was that Ao Long was still alive and currently in a dormant state within Ye Luo’s body.

So, when Ye Luo’s surging Battle Will erupted, the Dragon Scale sensed a hint of Ao Long’s presence, or rather, the essence of the Divine Dragon Battle Will. Because Ao Long was within Ye Luo’s body, there was a hint of Ao Long’s aura.

Thus, what should have been impossible, happened!

The Dragon Scale autonomously recognized Ye Luo as its master and returned to his Bloodline.

Because at that moment, the Dragon Scale deemed Ye Luo to be Ao Long!

Although it was merely a single scale, it was enough to alter Ye Luo’s Bloodline.

That was the inclusion of a trace of the Dragon Clan’s Bloodline!

The Nine Yang Holy Body, already extremely formidable and unique in the world, had, through a stroke of luck, merged with a trace of the Divine Dragon Bloodline!

This time, Ye Luo had struck it big.

Even if it was simply by chance, after all, the benefits he gained were real and substantial!

Then with a slap, a Silver Needle shot out from the Baihui acupoint on Ye Luo’s head.

The needle Ye Luo used just now was in fact called the Soul Locking Needle!

At that moment, Ye Luo had little confidence in defeating his enemy, so he wanted to lock his soul in place in case the old man appeared, giving him a chance to save Ye Luo’s life.

It was a move born out of desperation.

But it turned out to be unnecessary.

Because the Dragon Scale’s sudden recognition of its master caused Ye Luo’s strength to surge. In the final punch, he not only broke the giant sword wielded by the young man but also severely injured him!

The power of that punch made the young man with the giant sword realize that he could not possibly be Ye Luo’s opponent, so he admitted defeat.

Everything was a matter of fortuitous misadventure, or rather, a serendipitous coincidence.

But one thing was for certain, Ye Luo could now probably be considered a true Divine Dragon Heir!

Because Ye Luo now possessed a trace of the Divine Dragon Bloodline.

"Rise," Ye Luo said to the people of Dragon Pavilion, as the strange light in the sky had already disappeared.

However, the ethereal Dragon Shadow continued to linger momentarily before it entered Ye Luo’s body.

With a casual wave of his hand, Ye Luo took an Elixir directly.

After all, Ye Luo looked quite miserable at the moment, so it was better to recover as soon as possible.

After taking the Elixir, Ye Luo then turned and asked.

"Alright, who’s next? Is there anyone else who would like to challenge me? If not, I’m going to rest. That last fight was truly exhilarating!"

Looking at the nostalgic expression on Ye Luo’s face, those remaining probably all thought, "Only a fool would continue to challenge you!"

With Ye Luo gone, the other nine platforms could resume their challenges.

But obviously, due to the fight Ye Luo had earlier, the subsequent bouts on the platforms somehow felt less thrilling to the spectators.

Ignoring everyone else, Ye Luo returned to his room.

Holding a jade slip in his hand, Ye Luo directly asked Xiao Ling, "Xiao Ling, what exactly is this jade slip? Is it really that powerful?"

"No, Master, powerful is not the word to describe this jade slip. I’m afraid this item comes from the Martial Realm, and even there, it’s an extremely rare existence!"

"An extremely rare existence in the Martial Realm?"

Ye Luo was stunned!

So, who was that giant-sword youth? He could casually produce such a rare item.

Of course, Ye Luo did not know that, at the moment, the Sect Master of Sword Sect was almost green with envy!

He knew the giant-sword youth was their Sword Sect’s secret pride and also knew that the jade slip was the most precious manual of the Sword Sect!

It could be said that it was because of the existence of that jade slip that the Sword Sect became a super first-rate power.

But now, that jade slip had been given to Ye Luo by the Sword Sect’s hidden pride!

How could the Sect Master of the Sword Sect not be frantic?

The only consolation for the Sect Master of the Sword Sect was that the jade slip could not be deciphered by anyone without the correct method.

Because the Sect Master of Sword Sect had once tried to decipher it and was completely powerless.

It can be said that the jade slip was only meant for the Guardian Elder—it was passed down from one generation to the next and had always been a symbol of the identity of the Guardian Elder of the Sword Sect.

As for why the hidden pride of his Sword Sect had appeared on Mount Tai, the Sect Master had finally discovered the reason.

It turned out the Guardian Elder of the Sword Sect thought his heir was not bright enough and had intentionally let him out for training.

And today was only the second day!

To his dismay, the guy lost the jade slip on the second day of his departure.

Naturally, the Sect Master of Sword Sect dared not trouble the hidden pride, for he was very clear that even though the hidden pride was a bit dull, he was still the most valued heir of the Guardian Elder and irreplaceable by anyone.

Thus, the Sect Master of Sword Sect could only hope to snatch the jade slip back from Ye Luo’s hands.

This night was destined to be an extraordinary one.

The younger generation of disciples discussed who would obtain the top rank of the Green List the next day.

The older generation also gathered together.

"That Ye Luo cannot be allowed to live. Today, you all have seen, with such strength at a young age, I’m afraid in a few years, he will become the second Sheng Tianyang!"

"Indeed, this child cannot be spared. No matter the cost, he must be killed!"

"That’s true, but Dragon Pavilion has actually followed that lad, and with the strength of the Special Security Bureau, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to make a move!"
