Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 259: Dragon Power!

Luo Cheng had been away from the sect for half a month, and during this time, Ren Xiaoguang and the disciples of the Crown Prince Hall had been searching for him, causing quite a stir throughout the Outer Sect!

Many Outer Disciples believed that Luo Cheng dared not participate in the Outer Sect Grand Tournament and had fled from the sect, never to return.

Now, Luo Cheng suddenly showed up, instantly drawing everyone’s attention. A chorus of exclamations echoed through the crowd.

Luo Cheng remained indifferent to becoming the focal point of everyone’s gaze and headed toward the Martial Arts Square.

Seeing this, the surrounding murmurs grew louder.

Today was the registration day for the Outer Sect Grand Tournament, and the registration site was precisely the Martial Arts Square!

Luo Cheng heading toward the Martial Arts Square made his intentions abundantly clear!

Spectators followed closely behind, and within moments, a large crowd had gathered.

Luo Cheng paid them no mind and simply wanted to register quickly and return to cultivation.

Just as he approached the Martial Arts Square—

From afar, a human figure rushed forth like a streaking shadow.

"Haha, Luo Cheng! You really came back!"

A wild, boisterous laugh erupted, and moments later, a burly figure charged through the crowd with a heavy whooshing sound, suddenly appearing before Luo Cheng.

"Come! Take my punch!"

The man grinned excitedly, sending a punch roaring down like Mount Tai crashing upon Luo Cheng.

The punch carried tremendous weight, compressing the air into visible ripples.

"It’s Senior Brother Tuoba Lie!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Tuoba Lie, an exceptional genius who awakened the Nine-star Martial Soul, was renowned across the Outer Sect!

Just as the fist was about to land on Luo Cheng—

Suddenly!

Boom!

A thunderous explosion sounded as the burly figure was sent flying backward at a speed several times faster than he had come, smashing into a nearby rock wall to form a human-shaped pit!

"What just happened?!"

Exclamations of shock erupted from all around.

The crowd had only seen Tuoba Lie rush at Luo Cheng, and then he suddenly flew backward inexplicably. No one had seen what transpired clearly.

Bam!

The rock wall crumbled as Tuoba Lie leaped out of the pit.

In a little over a month, his physique had grown even bulkier. His skin was dark and glossy, and he stood there like an iron tower. His short hair cascaded behind his head, contributing to his wild demeanor and emanating a thick killing intent.

"Damn! That makes no sense!"

Shaking his head, Tuoba Lie looked at the deep pit in the ground, his eyes filled with confusion.

He himself didn’t understand how he had been knocked away.

Luo Cheng walked over. "Tuoba Lie, you’ve returned as well."

"Haha! With something as lively as the Outer Sect Grand Tournament, how could I miss it?"

Tuoba Lie grinned, but when his gaze fell on Luo Cheng, he suddenly froze. "Your blood vitality surges like waves—what incredibly potent life force! Luo Cheng, did you advance to Tongxuan Realm Second Layer?"

"Indeed, I just broke through recently."

Luo Cheng nodded with a faint smile.

There was no need to hide this, and even if he wanted to, it would be impossible.

Wow!

"Luo Cheng has actually advanced to Tongxuan Realm Second Layer! Half a month ago, wasn’t he still in the Tongxuan Realm First Layer Middle Stage?"

"Gasp! That’s outrageous! He awakened a Wasted Martial Soul, yet how has his cultivation progressed so quickly? Tuoba Lie awakened the Nine-star Martial Soul, and even he’s only at Tongxuan Realm First Layer Late Stage!"

"Could it be because he mastered the Golden Body Realm?"

"That’s possible. I heard from my master that the Golden Body Realm serves as the fundamental base for Supreme Martial Arts. Achieving it provides countless amazing advantages for body refinement! Even Tongxuan Realm Third Layer, which involves Qi Nourishing, Blood Strengthening, and Nourishing Spirit, is still within the scope of body refinement! It must be the reason!"

Like a stone dropped into a tidal wave, the news of Luo Cheng’s advancement to Tongxuan Realm Second Layer stunned everyone.

If Luo Cheng had been a talent on par with Tuoba Lie, it would have been understandable.

But the fact that he had awakened a Wasted Martial Soul—with the worst aptitude—and still cultivated at such an astonishing rate left many feeling indignant!

A person with a Wasted Martial Soul progressing faster than they were? How was that fair?

Tuoba Lie didn’t care, though. On the contrary, he grew even more excited, his eyes burning with battle fervor:

"You freak of nature! Then I won’t hold back! Take another punch! This time, I’ll use my full strength!"

Luo Cheng understood Tuoba Lie’s stubborn personality—if he didn’t defeat him thoroughly, Tuoba Lie would keep pestering him. He said, "Bring it on!"

Roar!

As those words fell, Tuoba Lie’s upper garment shredded to pieces, revealing muscles that looked like carved stone. Behind him, a three-eyed giant tiger glowing with nine stars appeared, amplifying his momentum.

"Tiger Binding!"

At the peak of his vigor, Tuoba Lie roared ferociously, striking out with both fists.

Boom!

His fist power swept forward like rushing wind, resembling a pair of sharp fangs, blasting toward Luo Cheng and shattering layers of air along the way!

"Such ferocious fist techniques, capable of suppressing one’s spirit—ordinary Second Layer Tongxuan Realm Martial Artists wouldn’t be able to withstand this... but it’s still a pity!"

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Luo Cheng calmly raised his right hand into a fist and struck out leisurely, giving off a sense of effortlessness.

Boom!

The two fists collided, releasing a deafening sound like an explosion.

In the next instant—

Whoosh!

Tuoba Lie’s upright figure was sent flying like a meteor, smashing into the rock wall once more, embedding himself over a foot deep!

In stark contrast, Luo Cheng hadn’t moved an inch.

Bang!

Debris scattered as Tuoba Lie climbed out again, spitting harshly onto the ground and looking at Luo Cheng to say:

"I’m done! You’re a freak!"

Luo Cheng chuckled. "I’m heading to the Martial Arts Square. Want to join?"

"Sure."

Once the two left, the awestruck crowd finally snapped out of their daze, exchanging incredulous glances.

Tuoba Lie was a cross-training martial artist with an incredibly powerful physique.

Two days ago, Tuoba Lie had defeated a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer Middle Stage disciple with his fists alone, forcing him to admit defeat!

Yet facing Luo Cheng, Tuoba Lie had no chance. He was sent flying with a casual punch—a complete and utter one-sided domination!

"Luo Cheng, what level has your physique strength reached?"

Walking alongside Luo Cheng, Tuoba Lie asked.

Earlier, Luo Cheng’s punch revealed no Essence Energy fluctuations, indicating that he had relied purely on his physical strength.

Luo Cheng replied, "Fifty thousand jin, I guess."

"Fifty thousand jin!"

Tuoba Lie’s eyes bulged in shock, staring blankly for several moments before exclaiming, "Are you even human? I’ve trained my body since childhood and inherited a family secret method for cross-training, yet my physique strength barely scrapes past twenty thousand jin! What have you been eating—dragon liver or phoenix gall?"

It wasn’t surprising Tuoba Lie was so astounded; many Third Layer Tongxuan Realm Martial Artists couldn’t even achieve fifty thousand jin of physique strength!

Only cross-training martial artists could push their bodies beyond limits.

Luo Cheng hadn’t expected Tuoba Lie to be so astonished. In truth, his current physique strength had already surpassed sixty thousand jin!

"Could this be the benefit of mastering the Golden Body Realm? Had I known, I’d have tried it long ago."

Tuoba Lie muttered to himself, "At this rate, you might cultivate a physique strength of a million jin at the Tongxuan Realm—that would be incredible!"

Luo Cheng asked curiously, "What’s so special about a million jin physique strength?"

Tuoba Lie’s face lit up with admiration. "A million jin of strength is no trivial matter. My grandfather once told me that the Ancient Dragon Clan possessed such power at birth, making them overwhelmingly dominant. They could fight Awakening Vein Realm Martial Artists with their bodies alone immediately upon birth. That’s why a million jin strength is also known as Dragon Power!"

"Martial Artists who achieve Dragon Power have blood vitality like tidal waves and Essence Qi like dragons. Their combat prowess might not compare to the actual Ancient Dragon Clan, but they can still sweep through opponents of the same realm!"

Dragon Power!

Luo Cheng listened intently, falling into contemplation about the True Dragon Technique.

The True Dragon Technique’s Ninth Level Perfection could condense True Dragon Power!

Could it be that by then, he would possess a million jin of strength?
