Chapter 1553 - 83: 9-Cycle Divine Dragon Skill (Part 3)
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of powerlessness in his heart.
He only let out a sigh:
"Let’s hope what you said isn’t wrong..."
The Sixth Jing of Longmen smiled faintly: "Old Third’s temperament is strange, his actions baffling, but his words have never been aimless. The First Shock had me travel all the way to retrieve him from Donghuang; that wasn’t for nothing."
The Dark Dragon Hall Master raised his brows at this, just about to ask whether this Old Third was that chess prodigy you mentioned earlier?
But before he could speak, the scene within the formation suddenly shifted.
They saw Su Mo lift both palms, then slam them down.
One palm of Pure Yang, one palm of Extreme Cold.
Yin Yang Balance, yet unable to fully meld; the two currents of True Qi boiled, but were kept in check within his body by the Yixuan Divine Skill, coexisting in peace.
Once unleashed, they erupted in a chain of explosions.
In an instant, the entire Stone Forest Formation was filled with shattering rock and continuous detonations.
This sudden change made the three around the Longmen Sixth Jing all change color at once.
The Longmen Sixth Jing snapped his folding fan shut with a click:
"Not good!"
He had just said this when they saw Su Mo channel True Qi into both palms, suddenly striking out with one palm into the air.
There was a loud bang.
The massive boulder in the very center of the room, which recorded the life of the Nanhai Martial God, had its upper half blasted into fragments.
A gleam of golden light appeared at this moment.
The three, sharp of eye, focused and saw that this golden light was embedded within the stone.
Only when the top half of the giant rock was shattered did it emerge.
But unfortunately, this scroll had only half revealed itself, so they could only clearly see the first two characters: Nine Revolutions!
"Nine Revolutions Divine Skill Dragon!!!"
The Longmen Sixth Jing’s eyes flickered; he nodded lightly at once:
"We’re leaving."
Now that Su Mo had already Broken the Formation, staying here any longer would be a dead end.
The Longmen Sixth Jing asked himself that with his Emperor’s Shocking World Book, his martial arts were still above the Seventh’s Great Sumeru Divine Demon Divine Power.
Yet even so, he still had not the slightest confidence against Su Mo.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master and Xu Huai Valley were both stunned.
They weren’t going to take the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique?
In that instant of daze, the Sixth Jing’s figure swayed and he leaned back against the wall behind him.
With a grinding sound, the wall rotated and his figure vanished.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master and Xu Huai Valley exchanged a glance, hesitating for a moment.
How formidable was the Monarch of the Black Dragon Ancient Country?
He had to be slain nine times by the Nanhai Martial God before he could truly be killed.
This showed that this Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique was anything but ordinary.
The Nanhai Martial Elder, after obtaining this secret book, sealed it inside this giant rock, yet left not a single word of clue upon it.
Truly infuriating.
If they left now, wouldn’t they be letting this Divine Skill slip right past their fingers?
Looking up again at Su Mo, he seemed just about to wake.
The two traded another look and stopped thinking.
Wealth is sought amidst danger, after all!
The bold eat their fill, the timid starve; moving through the Jianghu without daring to stake one’s life—what achievement could there be?
They each unleashed their methods, bodies flickering, and in a flash were before the giant rock.
They reached out to seize the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique.
Yet at the instant both moved, they simultaneously changed targets.
The hands that were reaching for the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique suddenly grabbed toward the other instead.
They burst forth with force, and the two spun midair.
Their eyes met; they both flew into a rage and spoke in unison:
"You dare make a move on me?"
The words out of their mouths were exactly the same.
Both of them were extremely wary of Su Mo, knowing this young man’s martial arts were frighteningly strong.
Like a Demon Lord of Mayhem.
If he fully regained consciousness, even should they obtain the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique, they would hardly be able to keep it.
The best plan now was: "Let the other Daoist die, not this poor Daoist."
Take the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique, and by the way, pit the man beside you.
Leave him behind to face Su Mo, buying yourself time to escape.
It was just as the saying went... you don’t have to outrun the tiger, you only have to outrun your teammate.
Yet they never expected that the other’s thoughts were exactly the same.
In the end, they struck at the same time, yet coincidentally targeted each other.
Thus, they failed to seize the Divine Skill, while their own malicious intent was laid bare.
Even so, neither of them hesitated now, and neither held back against the other.
Landing, they both sprang up again, reaching once more for the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique.
Then they heard a voice laugh:
"You two, fluttering back and forth in front of me—what exactly are you trying to do?"
Without turning, they knew the speaker was Su Mo.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master abandoned all other thoughts; with a turn of his hand, he unleashed three consecutive ultimate moves, all striking toward Xu Huai Valley.
Each move stirred wind and thunder, the rushing sound like rolling thunder.
Xu Huai Valley feared him not.
With a shake of his single arm, there was a buzzing sound as a golden ring dropped into his palm, and with a sweep he hurled it out.
These three moves of the Dark Dragon Hall Master were anything but ordinary; they were drawn from the Whale Swallowing Skill!
Years ago, he had schemed to obtain this Skill, then exhausted his Heart Power to patch its flaws and passed it on to the Dark Dragon Guard, establishing a special unit of Death Soldiers focused purely on the Whale Swallowing Skill.
How could he himself neglect such a Divine Skill Secret Book and not cultivate it?
Yet he hadn’t expected that when this killing strike met the golden ring in Xu Huai Valley’s hand—
His arm quaked violently!
There was a loud buzzing, as though the bones themselves were shaking madly.
For a moment his entire body trembled along with it.
His face went pale with shock:
"Infinite Qiankun?"
The Dragon King Mirror of the Dragon King Hall, the Haori Golden Blade of the Nanhai Alliance, and the Infinite Qiankun of Gui Xu Island—
These were the treasures of the three great powers.
Yet Infinite Qiankun was known only by name; no one knew its true form.
Now, seeing this, it turned out to be a golden ring!
Even the Dark Dragon Hall Master was seeing this item for the first time; with one careless exchange, he was driven into disadvantage.
Xu Huai Valley laughed heartily, not bothering to answer; with a flick of his hand, he directly flung the Dark Dragon Hall Master toward Su Mo.
In that instant, even if the Dark Dragon Hall Master had a thousand refusals and ten thousand unwillingness, he could only gather himself, shake his body, channel True Qi, and strike at Su Mo.
Xu Huai Valley seized the chance to snatch up the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique, his body flashing as he rushed to the very wall where the Sixth Jing had slipped away moments before; with a slam of his body, he fell through.
Su Mo cast him a glance and ignored him, simply sending out a casual palm.
It collided with the Dark Dragon Hall Master’s strike.
With that palm, he sent the Dark Dragon Hall Master flying backward.
This top master who had run rampant across the Nanhai was like a fake in front of Su Mo.
Yet as the Dark Dragon Hall Master flew out, they heard the wall rotate, and Xu Huai Valley, who had just departed, suddenly shot back out of that wall, shouting in fury:
"Longmen riffraff, you dare ambush me and steal my secret book!
"This old man will never let this rest!!"
His body fell; turning his head, he landed right beside the Dark Dragon Hall Master.
The two looked at each other, then together shifted their gaze to Su Mo, who was strolling over...
They saw Su Mo smile faintly:
"Gentlemen, keep jumping."
