Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 356: A Bountiful Harvest!
"You still want to smash this young master’s head?"
"Then bring it on! I’d like to see whose fists are harder."
Zhang Cangsong clenched his fists, about to strike Long Chen, but was once again blocked by the elder.
"Young Master, he’s deliberately provoking you. You mustn’t fall for his trap!" the elder warned. "If you refuse to listen, then I’ll have no choice but to summon the family head."
Hearing this, Zhang Cangsong shot the elder a ferocious glare. "Even you dare to threaten me?!"
"I wouldn’t dare... I wouldn’t dare..."
The elder quickly lowered his head, but he still braced himself and tried to persuade Zhang Cangsong. "Young Master, if you insist on fighting him, this old servant can’t stop you. I just fear it will affect the bigger picture..."
Hearing this, Zhang Cangsong shoved the elder aside and roared, "Get out of my way! Stop your useless chatter!"
With that push, the elder stumbled and fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zhang Cangsong was seething with anger. Feeling the strange looks from the crowd, his face flushed beet-red. He was mortified.
Left with no other choice, he turned to leave, unwilling to stay and remain a laughingstock for the crowd.
Seeing Zhang Cangsong refrain from attacking Long Chen, the elder heaved a sigh of relief. He scrambled up from the ground and hurried after Zhang Cangsong with the rest of the Zhang Family.
Witnessing this scene, Long Xin couldn’t help but snicker.
"I knew it! With Big Brother here, there was no way they could act so tough."
"The Zhang Family? What a joke! They’re only good for bullying the weak. That guy was smart to back down. If a real fight had started, he wouldn’t live to see tomorrow, even if he had nine lives."
Hearing this, Long Chen just shook his head with a smile and said nothing. After all, Long Xin wasn’t wrong. This truly was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. Besides, he was fully confident he could handle Zhang Cangsong.
With Zhang Cangsong and the others gone, the onlookers also dispersed tactfully. At this point, no one wanted to provoke Long Chen’s group.
Later, after eating and drinking their fill, Long Chen, Long Xin, and Tang Le returned to their rooms to rest. Long Xin, of course, stuck close to Long Chen, staying with him in his room.
Upon entering the room, Long Chen didn’t rest and chose to continue cultivating. He dared not stagnate. He had to cultivate relentlessly to increase his strength as quickly as possible, as he would have to face increasingly formidable opponents. He had to become even more powerful!
He went straight into cultivating the Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula. It had been a long time since he had made any progress on it after reaching its Third Layer. To boost his strength in a short time, he could not afford to neglect either the Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula or the Coiling Dragon Seal his mother had left him. In fact, he needed to increase his focus and master them both as soon as possible.
He sat cross-legged and began to cultivate the Fourth Layer of the Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula.
「Meanwhile, in another space.」
After a period of healing, Lei Man’s internal injuries had fully recovered. Her strength had not only returned but had actually improved. It was truly a blessing in disguise.
She sat in meditation, her gaze fixed on Chu Lingjun, who was floating in mid-air. The area around Chu Lingjun was densely filled with countless runes, and a profound silence reigned.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed into existence, striking Chu Lingjun directly.
BOOM!
An extremely powerful fluctuation of energy radiated from Chu Lingjun, shattering the space’s tranquility.
This scene naturally caught Lei Man’s attention. Her eyes were glued to Chu Lingjun. She was filled with anticipation, hoping Chu Lingjun could successfully grasp the true essence of the Holy Thunder Technique and master it.
Seeing a powerful energy ripple surging toward her, she quickly moved to defend, deflecting the wave of energy completely.
Where Chu Lingjun floated, the dense runes seemed to answer a summons, suddenly converging on her. As the silver, lightning-infused runes entered her body, Chu Lingjun immediately felt her power swell within her.
"AHHH—"
Chu Lingjun let out a great cry that reached for the heavens. An even more powerful force erupted. Wave after wave of energy rippled outward.
Even Lei Man couldn’t help but feel a flicker of astonishment. But beyond her surprise, she felt an even greater sense of excitement.
This power... it’s incredible! It looks like her gains in here have been immense!
When the torrent of power finally subsided, calm was restored. The dense runes that had encircled Chu Lingjun had all vanished. Everything returned to normal.
Chu Lingjun slowly opened her eyes and gently descended to the ground. On her forehead, the new imprint of a thunderbolt shimmered.
Seeing this, Lei Man was overjoyed. She quickly approached Chu Lingjun for a closer look and asked with concern, "How do you feel?"
Chu Lingjun shook her head. "I’m fine. Better than fine, in fact. My entire body is brimming with power, and I’ve broken through to the Fourth Level of the War King Realm!"
"Excellent!" Lei Man smiled, deeply satisfied with Chu Lingjun’s condition. She nodded and asked, "And the Holy Thunder Technique? Have you mastered it?"
"According to the cultivation method, I’ve learned the Holy Thunder Technique. But I feel I’ve only grasped its form, not its true essence."
Hearing this, Lei Man’s expression grew solemn. She pressed urgently, "What do you mean?"
Chu Lingjun slowly explained, "I feel like something is missing. I can’t unleash the technique’s true power. When I reach a certain point, it’s like the power just cuts out, making it impossible to continue." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"Senior, you are vastly knowledgeable. Do you have any idea why this might be happening?"
Upon hearing this, Lei Man fell into deep thought. She had never encountered the situation Chu Lingjun described.
What in the world is going on?
She glanced at Chu Lingjun.
Could she be trying to deceive me?
