Soul Emperor Martial God

Roar... Beneath Xiao Yi's feet, the gigantic creature roared angrily, instantly breaking free from the restraints.

Xiao Yi's mastery of Star Illusion Swordsmanship had made breakthroughs, controlling a thousand strands of starlight.

With Qing Lin's full assistance.

The combined power of the two could only restrain the gigantic creature for a very short time.

The gigantic creature began to roam once more.

Qing Lin dodged and appeared beside Xiao Yi, also tightly gripping the enormous head.

"Xiao Yi, can we leave now?" Qing Lin said, glancing at the dozens of Cloud Dragons approaching from afar.

"No." Xiao Yi shook his head, "You go first, I am confident I can escape afterward."

"If this fails, I will not be satisfied."

"What exactly do you want to do?" Qing Lin asked coldly.

Xiao Yi was silent, pondering solutions.

"Forget it." Seeing Xiao Yi's silence, Qing Lin angrily shook his head, "If you don't leave, then I won't leave either."

"As I've said, without you, I can't return to the Academy honorably."

"Then hold on tight," Xiao Yi said with a faint smile.

Xiao Yi looked back at the dozens of Cloud Dragons behind him.

The Cloud Dragon they were holding was moving swiftly; in speed, it was no slower than the dozens of Cloud Dragons behind.

In simple terms, continuing like this, they wouldn't be caught by the Cloud Dragons behind.

"I can only keep comprehending the Star Illusion Swordsmanship," Xiao Yi thought to himself.

With that thought, his mind quickly resumed comprehending.

Time slowly passed.

Two hours later, Xiao Yi's face bore a grim expression.

Because after two whole hours of intense comprehension, his comprehension speed was surprisingly slow.

He only managed to control one additional strand of starlight.

Previously, he could control one strand per minute, but now it took two hours for one strand, which was a huge gap.

A thousand strands of starlight seemed like a barrier, a qualitative change.

After a thousand strands, the subsequent cultivation of Star Illusion Swordsmanship seemed to reach a higher level.

Naturally, given his current level of cultivation, the difficulty of comprehension skyrocketed.

Another two hours later, Xiao Yi completely abandoned the idea of comprehension.

At this speed, he had little hope of making significant progress in Star Illusion Swordsmanship, let alone restraining the gigantic creature.

"I'm so close to mastering the Rising Dragon Technique, I must fight fiercely," Xiao Yi resolved, clenching his teeth.

With that thought, Xiao Yi waved his hand once more, and a thousand strands of starlight descended from the sky, again trapping the Cloud Dragon.

Simultaneously, the Blizzard Sword appeared in his hand, conjuring countless Cold Frost from thin air.

"Raise the Cold Ice Domain."

"Raise the Wind Snow Formation."

Xiao Yi unleashed his techniques in an instant.

The massive Cloud Dragon was trapped again.

Xiao Yi again closed his eyes, intending to enter enlightenment.

But clearly, as soon as he started, the Cloud Dragon forcibly broke through the trap again.

"Stop right there!" Xiao Yi shouted, "Boundary Shattering Fist."

With all his strength, he punched fiercely towards the massive head of the Cloud Dragon.

Bang... An explosive sound rang out.

The next second, another explosive sound followed, but this time it was the agonized roar of the massive creature, 'Roar'.

Beside him, Qing Lin's eyes widened, "Xiao... Xiao Yi, what are you doing..."

"If you really anger this Cloud Dragon, we're going to end up dead."

Indeed, the Cloud Dragon under their feet was knocked down by Xiao Yi's heavy punch, directly crushing a nearby Ten Thousand Ridges Mountain.

When the Cloud Dragon struggled violently, it suddenly erupted into a frenzy.

Its gigantic body no longer swirled but crashed aggressively forward.

Bang... With a loud crash, a towering mountain ahead was smashed through, leaving a giant hole.

Countless mountain rocks and debris constantly grazed past them, leaving them in a sorry state.

"It's over, it's really gone mad," Qing Lin cried out in alarm.

Xiao Yi remained silent, his eyes still full of solemnity.

His mind continued to try comprehending, even attempting to split his focus simultaneously holding the head while entering enlightenment.

However, in the face of the berserk Cloud Dragon, entering enlightenment was evidently extremely difficult.

By now, a faint light was emerging in the sky.

The night had quietly faded away.

From the moment Xiao Yi caught up with the massive creature to their struggle throughout the night, a long time had already passed.

"Ugh," at this moment, Xiao Yi spat out a mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale.

"Xiao Yi, are you alright?" Qing Lin beside him jumped in fright and asked urgently.

"I failed," Xiao Yi said bitterly, without even bothering to wipe the blood from his lips.

In fact, since the first descent of a thousand strands of starlight forming a Sword Array, then forcibly broken by the Cloud Dragon, he had suffered backlash.

Especially since he had briefly entered an enlightenment state at that time, forcibly broken by violent shaking, the backlash was even worse.

Up until now, after a night of entanglement, all means exhausted, his mind fully tired, yet he still couldn't succeed, in frustration, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Forget it," Xiao Yi sighed and shook his head.

Unable to force it, he was helpless.

"Qing Lin, thank you," Xiao Yi looked at Qing Lin beside him and smiled knowingly.

"It's alright," Qing Lin waved his hand, "I'm used to it anyway."

"Ha," Xiao Yi chuckled.

At this time, the previously berserk Cloud Dragon gradually stopped its crashing and resumed its meandering course.

"Let's go," Xiao Yi said helplessly.

"There's no rush now," Qing Lin smiled, "We've tangled with it for a whole night, and we're still alive and well. A few more moments won't make a difference."

"Come nightfall, when Cloud Dragons soar, it's always the most dangerous aspect of the Cloud Sea Dangerous Land."

"No one dares to provoke these Cloud Dragons in the slightest."

"However, I'm a bit curious now, these Cloud Dragons appear during the night... But what about normally?"

"During normal times, in this vast cloud expanse, there's only the Stepping Cloud Beast. Where do these Cloud Dragons go?"

"You want to see where they go?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Indeed," Qing Lin smiled, a predictable hint of restlessness in his eyes.

"Suit yourself," Xiao Yi chuckled, sitting cross-legged, still holding the massive head firmly.

The Cloud Dragon continued to soar, half an hour later...

Bang...

A faint sound echoed, and before Xiao Yi and Qing Lin could react, the ground beneath them vanished, and they suddenly fell.

"Oh no," Qing Lin exclaimed.

Xiao Yi furrowed his brow, quickly stabilizing himself.

The two slowly descended from within the Cloud Sea.

"Where's the Cloud Dragon?" Qing Lin asked, bewildered, after standing his ground.

"Look," Xiao Yi raised his head, gazing at the dozens of Cloud Dragons in the high sky within the Cloud Sea.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

A series of faint explosive sounds.

The dozens of Cloud Dragons suddenly dispersed, vanishing tracelessly.

"Where did they go, vanished into thin air?" Qing Lin's eyes widened.

Xiao Yi frowned, suddenly turned around, and his expression changed.

"It's not vanishing, it's a Formation."

"A Formation? What?" Qing Lin was puzzled.

Xiao Yi looked ahead and suddenly smiled, "So that's it."

"We've reached the destination shown on the Formation map."
