Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 43-
HUM!
An ear-piercing buzz rang out as a white halo manifested beneath Su Miaoyu’s feet. The halo rapidly expanded outward in a ring with Su Miaoyu at its center. In the blink of an eye, it grew to a diameter of thirty feet, enclosing both Su Miaoyu and Long Chen within it.
This aura... an Earth-Level Martial Technique? Long Chen narrowed his eyes. Su Miaoyu had actually cultivated an Earth-Level Martial Technique. It must be connected to Shangguan Pojun or Shangguan Ming.
Throughout all of Dragon City, only the World Business Association could acquire Earth-Level Martial Techniques. However, the price was astronomical, far beyond what anyone in the city could afford. Even if the Su Family’s entire fortune were drained and combined with all of the Long Family’s assets, they still could not afford a single Earth-Level Martial Technique. Based solely on Su Miaoyu’s personal connections, there was no way she could possess such a technique unless it was taught to her by Shangguan Pojun or Shangguan Ming.
"Long Chen, do you have any last words? With a single thought, I can take your life in an instant!" Su Miaoyu beamed, her hands ceasing their seal-forming gestures.
The moment she finished, the thirty-foot halo on the ground vanished beneath the surface, leaving no trace. The oppressive aura, which surpassed that of Mysterious-Level Martial Techniques, also disappeared with it.
"The oppressive aura of this Martial Technique is too strong! It’s many times more powerful than the Mysterious-Level High-Grade Martial Technique, the Furious Thunder Finger!"
"At the very least, it’s an Earth-Level Martial Technique! It could even be a Heaven-Level Martial Technique!"
"A Heaven-Level Martial Technique? Impossible, right? Su Miaoyu just stepped into the War Maniac Realm, so she shouldn’t be able to handle one. This is definitely an Earth Technique!"
"That’s right! The Martial Technique exclusive to the War Maniac Realm is indeed Earth-Level."
As the crowd murmured, Ling Yan suddenly smirked. "So this is the Earth-Level Low-Grade Martial Technique from the Martial Ancestor Ground Institute, the Earth Sword Array? I’ve heard it allows one to hide a sword array underground, making its attacks unpredictable. It’s a technique perfect for assassinations and surprise attacks."
At these words, Su Miaoyu’s gaze turned frigid as she stared at Ling Yan. "Are you trying to help Long Chen?"
Shangguan Ming’s expression also grew cold. "It seems I’ll have to ask the Head of the Earth Institute to have a personal chat with the elders of your World Business Association!"
"Oh, are spectators not allowed to speak? You didn’t mention that earlier. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said a thing, would I?" Ling Yan blinked her beautiful eyes, feigning an aggrieved look. "I was just admiring the uniqueness of this Martial Technique. Take this Earth Sword Array, for instance. It attacks from below the ground in the form of Sword Shadows, and its range is determined completely by the size of the halo that vanished. As long as one moves away from the caster, they can avoid being attacked. Of course, the attack range is still centered on the caster. The halo just now had a diameter of about thirty feet, so it seems Su Miaoyu has only cultivated this Earth Sword Array to the Entry Level. The Entry Level has a thirty-foot diameter, Minor Achievement reaches sixty feet, and Great Achievement extends to ninety feet. If she were to cultivate it to the Peak Perfection Stage, the diameter would be one hundred feet! That would be enough to catch an opponent completely off guard, leaving them dead or gravely injured. Oh, my apologies," she added sweetly. "This Martial Technique is just so incredible, I couldn’t help myself."
"You!" Shangguan Ming’s breath hitched, his face turning ashen with rage.
"So what if you tipped him off? He still can’t escape death!" Su Miaoyu suddenly shouted, stretching out a delicate hand and sweeping it through the air toward Long Chen.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
In an instant, three white Sword Shadows pierced through the ground beneath Long Chen’s feet.
Long Chen’s pupils constricted. He leaped into the air to dodge, but the assault came too suddenly.
RIP! RIP! RIP!
The three Sword Shadows tore through his robes and sliced into the flesh of his leg, right arm, and left arm.
"Hiss... Truly an Earth-Level Martial Technique! Just as Executive Ling said, it’s completely unpredictable!" the crowd gasped.
With the Sword Shadows hidden underground, anyone inside the attack range could be struck at any moment, leaving no time to react. How could one see an attack coming from beneath the earth? The only thing to rely on was Perception. But even with Perception, the gap in Realm Combat Power meant Long Chen could not dodge in time. A single strike had left him with three sword wounds. The fact that he managed to avoid his vital points was a stroke of incredible luck amidst his misfortune.
"Is this the source of your confidence?" After landing, Long Chen looked at the smug Su Miaoyu and sneered with disdain.
Su Miaoyu had been feeling triumphant. But when she saw that Long Chen still dared to laugh, and with such mockery, her expression immediately frosted over.
"Do you think the Earth Sword Array can only summon three Sword Shadows? Die!" Su Miaoyu swung both her hands.
In that instant, a dense barrage of Sword Shadows erupted from the ground, a tightly packed wave of attacks!
"Young Clan Leader!" the members of the Long Family cried out in shock.
Even Long Dou, the Head of the Long Family, clenched his fists, his face etched with deep concern.
"Heh, mere child’s play!" Long Chen scoffed disdainfully. His eyes transformed—the left turned pitch-black, the right stark white!
It was the Divine Demon Eye
