Dragon Blooded War God

Chapter 655: Essence Ring



The true power of the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage?

Long Chen had now confirmed her cultivation level.

It was a hair-raising battle to watch.

Zhao Wuji and Lady Xuan separated. Long Chen noticed that Zhao Wuji’s expression was very dark.

On the other hand, a carefree smile was plastered on Lady Xuan’s face. Without another word, she shot at him at a speed several times faster than before! She was from the Wind clan of the Heavenly Wind Empire, and wind was the symbol of speed and lightness. It was clear that she was exceptional in terms of speed!

Even Long Chen’s vision blurred.

Whoosh …

In the blink of an eye, Lady Xuan arrived before Zhao Wuji.

“Three Thousand Illusory Palms!”

Lady Xuan swung her palm at Zhao Wuji. Her palm turned into two, then three, then an increasing number of palm seals appeared instantly, instantly drowning Zhao Wuji!

“Yellow Martial Seal!”

At this critical moment, Zhao Wuji took a deep breath and used the Yellow Martial Seal, an attack Zhao Danchen previously used. However, his attack was more than ten times stronger than Zhao Danchen! The Martial Overlord’s strength was no joke!

A golden “martial” character appeared in front of Zhao Wuji. His face was cold as he pushed out the seal. The golden seal expanded into a mountain that collided with her Three Thousand Illusory Palms. Her technique consisted of three thousand attacks, and they all fell on his Yellow Martial Seal!

This was the true moment that would decide who was stronger.

Long Chen was not shocked by Lady Xuan’s strength, but rather Zhao Wuji’s. He could see that Zhao Wuji was still at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage, but he could unleash an attack strong enough to compete with Lady Xuan. This meant that he was very close to the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage! Perhaps this was why he was always cultivating and did not care about the Dragon clan or everyone else!

If he reached the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, no one would be a match for him!

He would be able to defeat Long Shan and his other enemies easily then.

However, he was unlucky because Lady Xuan from the Heavenly Wind Empire had suddenly shown up at his doorstep. Not only did she want his Myriad Earth Essence, she was also here to fight him for the Ancient Token. If she did not die, then his plan would be ruined!

That was why he was fighting as hard as he could!

The sounds coming from the battle between two masters were deafening. However, it was not like when Zhao Danchen fought, where the whole earth shook. In reality, their attacks were even stronger because they focused all their strength in their attacks. They were clearly proficient in controlling their essence!

When the Yellow Martial Seal and Three Thousand Illusory Palms collided, Lady Xuan’s attack was slightly stronger. A portion of the palm seals passed through the Yellow Martial Seal and landed on Zhao Wuji’s body, throwing him back!

The crowd cried out in surprise!

In their hearts, the Martial Overlord was the symbol of constant victory. Was he showing signs of defeat today?

The crowd stared in disbelief!

However, his injuries were not severe.

The Martial Overlord quickly stabilized himself. His face was slightly pale, and the coolness in his eyes turned ice-cold. A violent aura radiated from his body.

“Oh? Are you angry?” Lady Xuan thought everything was within her control. She giggled and looked at him with contempt.

“You will regret this.” Zhao Wuji’s cold voice was heard by everyone between heaven and earth. Then Long Chen suddenly felt suffocated because an immense pressure erupted from the Martial Overlord’s body. The crowd felt a force acting on them!

The ones who were weaker looked pale and even felt like they were going to faint. Then they suddenly fled in a swarm, causing chaos. Thankfully, the Martial Alliance had many Martial Kings, including Xiao Lin, to maintain order, so the chaos died down quickly.

“Is Zhao Wuji going to risk it all?” Long Chen silently used his essence to withstand the pressure. Looking at Zhao Wuji, he realized that the Martial Overlord’s body was changing!

“Divine Martial Possession!” cried someone of a higher level in the Martial Alliance. They had heard rumors, so they knew what technique he was using.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji was covered in a golden membrane. Densely-packed golden runes appeared all over his body, including his face. The elegant and sophisticated-looking Zhao Wuji instantly turned violent and terrifying!

“This is Divine Martial Possession?” Long Chen sensed that Zhao Wuji had become several times more powerful! He was initially close to the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, and after using Divine Martial Possession, he reached the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage!

Now Zhao Wuji was strong enough to fight Lady Xuan!

“Is Divine Martial Possession a divine technique similar to the Demon Seed Planting Technique? Does it increase a person’s combat abilities during battle?” muttered Long Chen to himself.

“You’re wrong, stupid,” Little Cat said smugly.

“Hmm?”

“This is Zhao Wuji using his ancestors’ powers. I’m guessing that previous Martial Overlords have injected their own powers and imprints into a treasure. After a long time, the treasure accumulated great power. Do you see the golden ring on Zhao Wuji’s finger? That’s a status symbol passed down to each Martial Overlord. Of course, because it’s an external source of energy, using it leads to bodily damage!”

As Long Chen listened to Little Cat, he spotted a golden ring on Zhao Wuji’s thumb. Golden rays of line shone out of the ring and pierced into his body!

As power flowed from the ring into his body, Zhao Wuji grew stronger at great speed. His whole body was covered in golden runes!

He was borrowing power from his ancestors, and it was a type of divine technique much stronger than the Demon Seed Planting Technique. Only the highest-level members of the Martial Alliance knew of this secret. Other people only roughly knew that every Martial Overlord could use a divine technique called Divine Martial Possession.

“You have an Essence Ring?” Lady Xuan asked with surprise when Zhao Wuji used Divine Martial Possession. She looked at the ring on his thumb with surprise. During the few moments she was stunned, Zhao Wuji absorbed a portion of the power in his Essence ring, causing his combat abilities to instantly increase to the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage!

Lady Xuan initially held victory confidently in her hands, but when the Essence ring appeared, despite her partially veiled face, Long Chen saw her brows furrowing slightly.

Zhao Wuji’s aura became several times stronger.

“I did not want to use them, since they are meant to help me stay alive in the Ancient Graveyard and their power diminishes with every use. However, since you’re being so stubborn, I, Zhao Wuji, will not be polite either.”

“If you’re saying that, do you mean you want to kill me?” teased Lady Xuan.

Zhao Wuji had pulled out his trump card. If he did not kill Lady Xuan now and she came back to trouble him again, how many uses did his Essence ring have left?

“You’re right!”

The intense battle flared up once more, this time more terrifying than before. Lady Xuan had been suppressing Zhao Wuji, but it was Zhao Wuji launching a series of attacks on her this time! He fought as hard as he could, and Lady Xuan slowly started to falter!

“Roar!”

The initially sophisticated-looking Zhao Wuji’s features slowly contorted into viciousness. The golden runes covering his body flickered. He threw punch after punch; all of his power was concentrated in his fist, colliding powerfully with Lady Xuan’s attacks!

“Bastard!” Furious, Lady Xuan also started to fight with all her might. When Fifth Earthly Martial Stage masters started to fight seriously, Long Chen realized that even he could not see what they were doing clearly. Two blurry shadows moved quickly just outside of Martial Overlord City!

Long Chen was far from qualified to participate in a battle of this level!

“Zhao Wuji is about to use his most powerful move.” Long Chen sensed that Zhao Wuji’s power had risen to a new high. He knew that Zhao Wuji was about to launch his final strike!

This was his only chance!

Boom, boom, boom!

There were consecutive explosions. Zhao Wuji suddenly flew up into the air, and countless golden light threads appeared around him. They flew to his body, turning him into a golden sun! The golden runes spun quickly over his skin, and Zhao Wuji’s fingers formed seals with lightning speed. A shocking level of power erupted from his body!

“This must be the only advanced King-tier technique in the whole Divine Martial Empire—the Martial Overlord Seal!”

Boom!

An explosion went off when Zhao Wuji pushed his seal outwards. At that moment, it was as if the whole world was shaking. The golden rays turned into a large illusory image of a golden-armored war god, which appeared behind Zhao Wuji. As he pushed out the seal, the large, golden-armored war god reached out and threw its large, golden fist at Lady Xuan!

The whole world changed colors!

The Martial Overlord was shockingly powerful!

Long Chen knew that he would surely die if he were hit with this attack, unless he used Rewind after taking one hit!
