NOVEL NEXT Chapter 693 Dragon Slaying Skill!
The Big Head suddenly swung his axe, the axe fell.
The large tree, several meters away, which required several people to embrace, was abruptly split from the middle!
It became two halves, crashing down!
The Big Head cheerfully ran toward Yang Yan.
"I split it, give me the Spirit Fruit," he said foolishly.
Yang Yan tossed the Spirit Fruit to the Big Head.
"Here."
The Big Head caught the Spirit Fruit, devouring it in big gulps.
He ate quickly, almost one bite per fruit.
"That move of his, truly powerful!"
*The Big Head's swing of the axe touched upon the Dao!*
*Moreover, the touched Dao was not just one kind!*
*It was two kinds!*
*One was the Power of Dao, and the other was the way of faith!*
"He could kill a Saint, that's no empty claim!"
*The strength of the Big Head, his physique was clearly nearing the Saint Body.*
Coupled with these two Dao, he was not much inferior to a typical Saint who had only entered one Dao.
*Even though his Profound Qi was not as good as a Saint's,*
*he could bridge this gap with his mastery of two Dao.*
*If he faced a regular Saint head on in battle until the very end, fighting to the death,*
*there truly was a risk that the Big Head could kill the Saint!*
*Of course!*
*Compared to Yang Yan, the Big Head was not strong enough!*
*Yang Yan had mastered not just two Dao, but Three Thousand Dao.*
He could kill an ordinary Saint now!
If there were more Saints, or if they were too far away, or if they set up a Killing Array, he would rely on his Emperor Body and Dao Essence.
"Delicious, delicious!" the Big Head said joyfully while eating.
At this time, Zhe Yan and a hunched elder came out, the elder's eyes appeared hollow.
*Yang Yan could tell at a glance.*
*This elder had reached the Saint Realm, possessing great power!*
"Big Head, why did you cut down that tree?" Zhe Yan asked angrily.
The Big Head confusedly pointed at Yang Yan.
"He told me to cut it, he said if I cut down that tree, I could have a Spirit Fruit to eat!"
He spoke while quickly stuffing the remaining Spirit Fruit into his mouth, fearing that Zhe Yan would get angry and forbid him from eating the Spirit Fruit.
Zhe Yan was stunned.
"He..."
Immediately, she closed her mouth and said no more.
"Zhe Yan, it's just a tree, let it be, it's no big deal!" said the hunched elder at this time.
Zhe Yan nodded.
"Mm, mm."
Then she continued to introduce to the hunched elder.
"Clan Leader, this is the human from the clans I was telling you about!"
Then Zhe Yan spoke to Yang Yan.
"This is the Clan Leader of our group!"
The hunched elder gave a kind smile.
"Young man, you're quite remarkable," he said.
Yang Yan stood up.
"You are remarkable as well!"
The hunched elder laughed heartily.
"The young man is straightforward, come, let's talk inside."
"Alright."
Yang Yan followed the hunched elder into a room, while Zhe Yan and the Big Head did not follow.
The Big Head intended to follow, but was held back by Zhe Yan.
*It was evident that the hunched elder instructed Zhe Yan to do this.*
"I wonder what the senior wishes to discuss with me!" The doors closed, Yang Yan inquired.
*His eyes surveyed the room, it was quite simple.*
Besides a picture of the Sui Emperor hanging, there was only commonplace furniture like tables and chairs.
"Young man, sit down and let's talk!" the hunched elder said, gesturing.
"Alright."
Yang Yan sat down, the hunched elder sat opposite him.
"Young man, our clan has lived here for generations.
Because we are on the Wilderness Border, there's nothing good to offer you, please excuse us!" the hunched elder began to speak first.
"Regarding Zhe Yan's misunderstanding with you, I apologize here.
Please forgive us!
They are young and hot-blooded, impulsive!
For our clan being situated in this desolate Wilderness Border for generations, they harbor quite a bit of dissatisfaction.
Whether it's demons or cultivators from outside.
They bear hostility!
It's not just against you, it's against all who aren't descendants of the Ancient Human Clan!"
"I understand!" Yang Yan understood the reason.
"I'm not excusing their misunderstanding with you either, they promised you compensation which I will provide." The hunched elder said this while taking out a rolled beast hide from his bosom.
He placed the beast hide on the table, pushing it toward Yang Yan.
"This is a divine art passed down from our ancient era.
I hand it to you as compensation!"
Divine art?
Yang Yan waved his hand, and the beast hide unfurled before his eyes.
On it was a painting of a man holding a stone blade barely as long as his arm, standing before a colossal creature that connected Heaven and Earth.
This huge creature was a snake covered in red scales, towering above the endless Heavenly Dome.
Its single eye gazed down at the Sui Emperor holding the stone blade.
Zhulong!
*Yang Yan recognized it, that massive creature was the Zhulong depicted in various books.*
Another, the Sui Emperor?
"If it was the Sui Emperor, how did he slay the Zhulong?"
*The Sui Emperor seemed like an ant in front of it.*
The Zhulong could extinguish the Sui Emperor easily with a single breath.
But the outcome was that the Zhulong died, the Sui Emperor won!
"Young man, release your inner flame, observe this Emperor Sui's Dragon Slaying Map!" The hunched elder's voice reached Yang Yan's ears.
Yang Yan followed the elder's words, letting the inner flame flow into the beast hide.
The Emperor Sui's Dragon Slaying Map before Yang Yan began to change.
*Yang Yan seemed to become the Sui Emperor in the painting, standing before the Zhulong.*
The terrifying aura exuded by the Zhulong was almost overwhelming for Yang Yan.
Yet soon after, it seemed as if infinite power surged from within him.
The power rose mightily as he wielded the seemingly minuscule stone blade against the Zhulong.
The distance between them was vast.
Yet this blade strike spread instantly.
The majestic power collected into a vast sharp edge.
For an instant, it pierced through the body of the Zhulong.
Slaying the Zhulong right before him!
*Yang Yan suddenly returned to his senses, his eyes showing signs of fluctuation.*
"The Sui Emperor, carrying the collective faith of all the Human Clan, struck this blade and slew the Zhulong!"
*It was not the Sui Emperor alone who slew the Zhulong; back then, the Sui Emperor did not have such immense power.*
*It was the unified faith of all those in the Human Clan tribe he controlled!*
*That gave the Sui Emperor the courage and power to slay the Zhulong!*
"Senior, what is this divine art?" Yang Yan asked.
The hunched elder uttered three words.
"Dragon Slaying Skill!"
Dragon Slaying Skill!
*Yang Yan understood!*
*This Dragon Slaying Skill was different from the belief held by the Big Head and the Heavenly Sword Sect's Heavenly Sword.*
*One was an individual's belief, while the other was the power of a unified and identical belief of all people!*
"Senior, such skill of immense importance, surely you didn't hand it over simply as compensation?" Yang Yan said slowly as he put away the Emperor Sui's Dragon Slaying Map.
The hunched elder smiled with deep meaning.
"Indeed, it was not a simplistic handing over.
It's that in today's world, the only person capable of mastering this skill.
Is you alone!"
"Why do you say that?" Yang Yan asked.
The hunched elder's eyes were murky.
"Do you know why the descendants of my Ancient Human Clan, clearly a great clan with no weak power.
Have settled here in the dangerous edge of the Wilderness?"
"Wasn't it because they were pressured by external cultivators?"
"That was just an excuse, the real reason is times have changed!"
