Soul Emperor Martial God

"No Flying at Night?" Xiao Yi frowned and closed his eyes.

After a while, Xiao Yi opened his eyes and said with a frown, "Where's the No-fly?"

In his perception, there was absolutely no No-fly Formation or Prohibition, both around and within the Cloud Sea.

He could clearly feel that he could still mobilize Primordial Power and perform Sky-controlling Flight.

Qing Lin smiled and said, "When I first came, I thought the same as you, but that time, I almost lost my life."

"The so-called No-fly isn't referring to Formations or Prohibitions."

"Then what's it about?" Xiao Yi asked.

Upon arriving at the Cloud Sea from the Black Cloud Region, he had always been following Qing Lin.

Therefore, he hadn't investigated the information about this region and wasn't very clear about many things.

"You'll find out soon enough." Qing Lin smiled, fell silent, and sat down cross-legged by himself to cultivate with closed eyes.

Xiao Yi paid no attention, still gazing at the starry sky.

Besides Qing Lin, not a single living object was around.

And the nearby peaks were extremely distant.

Atop the mountain peaks, above the Cloud Sea, except for the faint sound of Gang Wind blowing, it appeared exceptionally tranquil.

Xiao Yi's lips gradually curled into a smile.

He realized it had been a long time since he had the chance to quietly gaze at the starry sky and simply enjoy a rare moment of peace.

In recent years, he was either traveling far and wide or engaged in numerous pursuits and battles.

Even rare moments of leisure were spent in secluded cultivation.

The last time he quietly gazed at the starry sky, enjoying solitude, was several years ago, in Meteor County, at the Prince Mansion, watching a rare meteor night.

That time, in the meteors, a beautiful woman's face appeared, mesmerizing him for a long time.

He had said he would eventually find her, which was why he traveled from the Eastern Domain to the Central Region.

Now, he was in the Central Region, getting closer to his promise, but he was still somewhat impatient.

"Heh." Xiao Yi suddenly chuckled happily.

He remembered the last time in the Prince Mansion, when his thoughts were disturbed by the Sword Master of Wanshan County, and he was quite displeased.

This time, he hoped there wouldn't be another disturbance.

Thinking this, Xiao Yi didn't realize how quickly his thought would come true.

In the distance, suddenly… 'Roar'…

A thunderous roar echoed.

"What is that?" Xiao Yi's expression changed, snapping out of his thoughts.

The roar nearly shattered the entire sky.

The deafening sound gave him quite a fright.

"It's here." Beside him, Qing Lin, who was meditating with closed eyes, suddenly opened them and smiled.

"It's here?" Xiao Yi looked into the distance.

Suddenly, the sky changed dramatically.

The entire Cloud Sea churned incessantly.

A powerful aura pressed down fiercely.

"What a terrifying aura." Xiao Yi gasped.

Just the aura alone was enough to shock him to the core, making him feel no desire to resist.

Seconds later, a huge creature swam over from afar.

Yes, swam.

A massive creature seemed to be swimming and playing within the Cloud Sea.

With just one glance, Xiao Yi's pupils contracted, "That's..."

"A snake? No, a dragon?"

The enormous creature in the distance moved along the clouds, its graceful body weaving between the mountain peaks.

Its gigantic body encircled the Ten Thousand Ridges Mountain easily, over and over again.

Even from afar, its immense size could be sensed.

It's not hard to imagine that in front of its enormous head, even demon beasts as tall as mountains would appear as insignificant as ants.

"Swallow... What a huge demon beast." Xiao Yi swallowed and exclaimed in surprise.

Qing Lin, still sitting cross-legged, said, "That's the Cloud Dragon, which roams within the Cloud Sea at night."

"You can imagine, such a giant creature, if it accidentally crashes into a Ten Thousand Ridges peak, the peak would turn to dust in an instant."

"If you recklessly enter the Cloud Sea now and accidentally encounter it, even a Saint King Realm expert would face death for sure."

"The Cloud Sea is a Dangerous Land, hence the No Flying at Night rule, and no one dares enter the Cloud Sea at night."

"Most importantly, there isn't just one Cloud Dragon. I don't know exactly how many there are, but I've seen a group of dragons soaring, and that power was like the destruction of the heavens."

"Cloud Dragon?" Xiao Yi frowned at the massive creature in the distance and shook his head, "There isn't a hint of a demon beast aura."

"No, there's not even the slightest aura on it."

"How is this possible?"

Lacking an aura means that this massive creature can only be observed with the eyes.

If you close your eyes, no matter how strong your perception is, you wouldn't be able to discover it.

"Is there really such a peculiar thing in the world?" Xiao Yi's face was full of shock.

"What's so strange about that?" Qing Lin chuckled, "In this vast world, who dares to claim absolute knowledge and understanding of everything?"

"In such a large Central Region, with countless regions and countless peculiarities, who dares to say they know it all?"

"Oh, speaking of which." Qing Lin suddenly chuckled knowingly.

"Back when I first came to the Cloud Sea Dangerous Land, I was unaware and nearly suffered a setback here."

"I remember that night, I was still playing with a Stepping Cloud Beast in the Cloud Sea when I saw these Cloud Dragons, and I was almost scared to death."

"Luckily, I reacted quickly and managed to climb back to the mountain peak."

As Qing Lin recounted the past, he spoke incessantly, not noticing that Xiao Yi, beside him, was standing there in a daze.

Xiao Yi's eyes were fixed on the distant Cloud Dragon.

The massive creature rolled within the Cloud Sea; under the starlight, it was exceedingly brilliant, and every movement was captured in Xiao Yi's eyes.

The aura around Xiao Yi's body suddenly changed.

"Hmm?" Qing Lin beside him instantly sensed it, "Enlightenment?"

"Xiao Yi, what are you realizing?"

Xiao Yi didn't answer, as his mind was already fully immersed in his enlightenment.

His hands began to move, and soon, his feet started moving too.

"Oh, starting to perform fist techniques now." Qing Lin chuckled, "I haven't seen you use fist techniques these days."

"Such a strange fist technique, but it seems very profound with each gesture."

Qing Lin observed Xiao Yi's movements, slightly surprised, but couldn't recognize the fist technique.

Only Xiao Yi knew it was his Xingyi Five Extremes.

From his past life, only the 'Rising Dragon' extreme had yet to be Great Achieved.

The other Four Extremes already embodied Martial Arts True Intent.

Only the Rising Dragon lacked its manifestation and was never fully realized in its True Intent.

Five types of Martial Arts True Intent, missing just one.

This was a regret of his, but now, suddenly, an opportunity was arising, and he was even falling into enlightenment.

Xiao Yi clearly felt the level of his 'Rising Dragon' constantly rising.

The rolling Cloud Dragon in the distance, appearing casual, revealed to him the world's most primitive Martial Arts essence.

The Cloud Dragon meanders, sometimes encircling peaks, sometimes swimming through dense clouds.

Gradually, the massive creature approached the mountain peak where Xiao Yi stood; after a moment, it slowly meandered away.

In Xiao Yi's eyes, the 'observation' object suddenly vanished, breaking his enlightenment instantly.

"I haven't fully realized it yet, just a bit more, let me watch a little longer." Xiao Yi's expression changed, "Don't run."

Whoosh… In a flash, he leaped into the Cloud Sea, directly pursuing the massive creature.

Second update.
