Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

BUZZ!

Just as Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit Sensing reached out, a golden light flickered ahead. It was like a True Dragon entering his Heart Spirit.

”True Dragon Armor!” a deep voice echoed in his mind.

”This armor was forged from Dragon Scales and Dragon Sinews. It must be nourished with True Dragon Blood Qi. The stronger the Blood Qi, the stronger the armor’s might…”

A stream of information flooded into Ling Fei’s mind.

’It’s actually a set of True Dragon Armor! Good, I was just missing a defensive Supreme Treasure!’ Ling Fei was overjoyed.

In the battle at the North Spirit Ruins, he had once attacked with his Eye of Destruction but failed to kill Xu Zitao.

It was all because his opponent possessed a powerful set of armor.

Now that Ling Fei had armor of his own, he would have a better chance of survival in the future.

With a thought, his Heart Spirit returned to his mind. Along with it, a set of True Dragon Armor flashed out of the Dragon Bone Space, hovering before him.

”True Dragon Armor!” Ling Fei’s gaze focused as he murmured, ”If I merge this True Dragon Armor into my body, it will be able to protect my physical form.”

With a thought, he immediately began to draw it in. The Light Patterns on the True Dragon Armor before him flickered, transforming into what looked like individual scales that flowed toward Ling Fei’s body.

Finally, the scales began to merge into his body.

But as they did, they began to frantically absorb Ling Fei’s Blood Qi.

’To completely merge with this True Dragon Armor, I must have enough True Dragon Blood Qi in my body.’ Ling Fei understood this clearly.

After the True Dragon Armor entered his Heart Spirit, he had received a series of information.

He immediately began to circulate the Blood Qi in his body, infusing it into the scales formed by the True Dragon Armor.

In addition, his Heart Spirit also merged with the True Dragon Armor along with his Blood Qi. Only by doing this could he gain complete control over it.

Once his Heart Spirit and Blood Qi had merged into the True Dragon Armor, Ling Fei could clearly sense some of its wondrous aspects.

The Dragon Scales were extremely hard, being scales shed by a True Dragon. Dao Patterns had been carved onto them, and only True Dragon Blood Qi could activate the Power within.

Of course, ordinary blades could not pierce the armor.

However, it wasn’t omnipotent. If his True Dragon Blood Qi was insufficient, although the True Dragon Armor could block an enemy’s blade, the power carried by the attack could still transform into an impact force and injure his body. Therefore, the might the True Dragon Armor could display was ultimately related to one’s Cultivation.

Time passed, bit by bit. Ling Fei continued to merge with the True Dragon Armor.

Finally, the True Dragon Armor completely integrated into his flesh and blood, existing like a form-fitting layer of Soft Armor.

The feeling of it becoming one with his flesh and blood washed over Ling Fei.

”True Dragon Armor, manifest!” With a thought from Ling Fei, a golden light erupted from his body, as if a True Dragon were being born.

Then, a complete set of True Dragon Armor appeared on his body, encasing him completely.

In addition to the armor, there was also a Golden Dragon Helmet. At the very front of the helmet, a dragon’s head was emblazoned, coiled and exuding a vast True Dragon’s Might.

With just a thought, the True Dragon Armor and helmet would appear.

’It truly is a Supreme Treasure.’ Ling Fei’s heart leaped with joy as the True Dragon Armor manifested on his body.

Although the True Dragon Armor was still not enough to help him contend with experts of the Beiming Transformation Sea realm, it could at least grow with him and would become a great asset.

’Now, to see about the Power in the Dragon Bone.’ After this thought, Ling Fei began to try and circulate the Bloodline Power within the Dragon Bone.

In the past, Ling Fei could also activate some of the Power within the Dragon Bone, but he had to rely on the Dao Patterns on its surface.

This time, he directly merged his Heart Spirit into the Dragon Bone, intending to draw out the residual Blood Qi within.

This was the true first step to controlling the Dragon Bone.

WHOOSH!

As his Heart Spirit sank into the Dragon Bone, Ling Fei sensed an incredibly majestic Blood Qi.

This Blood Qi was golden, like rampaging golden dragons churning about. The Power was too immense; if Ling Fei hadn’t already gained control of the Dragon Bone, his Heart Spirit wouldn’t have been able to withstand this Blood Qi at all. After a moment of shock, Ling Fei began to try and draw this Blood Qi out and channel it into his body.

WHOOSH!

The Blood Qi was drawn out from the Dragon Bone by Ling Fei. It was too majestic; even a single wisp of it was like a True Dragon being born, its aura blanketing the heavens.

As the Blood Qi entered his body, he felt as if his meridians were about to burst.

’What tyrannical Power!’ Ling Fei was inwardly shaken. ’True Dragon Armor!’ With a thought, he quickly activated the True Dragon Armor to absorb this Power.

The Dao Patterns on the True Dragon Armor squirmed and began to frantically absorb the Power.

Instantly, the True Dragon Armor shone with a brilliant light, and a Supreme Dragon’s Might began to radiate outwards. Its aura was far beyond what an ordinary person could compare to.

’As expected, after absorbing the True Dragon Blood Qi, the might of the True Dragon Armor is also increasing.’ Seeing this, Ling Fei was delighted.

’However, mobilizing the Blood Qi within the Dragon Bone is too draining on my Heart Spirit. With my current strength, I can’t draw out much True Dragon Blood Qi at all.’ A flicker of regret appeared in Ling Fei’s eyes. Just touching this True Dragon Blood Qi made his soul feel like it was about to disintegrate; being able to draw out even a single wisp was already quite an achievement.

’Strength. What I lack right now is strength.’ Ling Fei couldn’t help but clench his fists.

’Not just strength, but time.’ His eyes shone brightly.

With the Dragon Bone in his possession, Ling Fei was full of confidence for the future.

But what he lacked now wasn’t that, but time, and a world that would allow him to grow.

And now, with the invasion of the Evil Demons, even with Emperor Tang present, the situation in the Southern Wilderness was uncertain.

’Tomorrow is the moment that decides my fate, and the fate of the billions of citizens in the Southern Wilderness. No matter what, I cannot give up.’ A determined look appeared in Ling Fei’s eyes. ’No matter how difficult the situation, I will fight to the very end and do my part!’ At this moment, he was filled with the will to survive.

’For the sake of survival, I must fight until the end.’ Ling Fei’s gaze sharpened, his heart filled with endless fighting spirit, not a trace of fear.

Because only by living could he become strong, and only then could he protect those he wished to protect.

...

「The next day」

The sky was a clear blue. As the morning sun spilled down, the people of the Lingyun Sect were already assembled and ready, waiting for Emperor Tang to march to war.

It was not just the Lingyun Sect; nearly all the citizens of the Southern Wilderness were waiting for Emperor Tang’s campaign to begin. One by one, they looked up at the Void, gazing at the massive Holy Decree.

Everyone was waiting for news from Emperor Tang.

Ling Fei also flew from his courtyard to the main peak of the Lingyun Sect. With him was Shangguan Wan’Er.

Although she was too weak to fight, Shangguan Wan’Er wanted to be with Ling Fei to witness this moment that would decide the future of the Southern Wilderness.

Even in death, she wanted to be with Ling Fei.

Lian Shuang strolled nearby, but she did not stay with Ling Fei.

By her side were Fang Yuan and other fellow sect members.

These people also wanted to follow Emperor Tang into battle.

Even if their strength was low and they couldn’t influence the outcome, in their eyes, it was enough to watch this life-or-death battle for the Southern Wilderness from afar.

At the very least, they would have witnessed the war that would decide the fate of the Righteous Dao practitioners of the Southern Wilderness.
