Dragon War God

Chapter 41 - Dragon Soul Transformation

Yang Xueqing grew even more anxious when she saw her son’s eyes turn blood red after Bai Zhanxiong spoke to him.

But Bai Zhanfeng was shamelessly keeping her occupied. Since they were equal in ability and Yang Xueqing was distracted because she was worried for Long Chen, it was impossible for her to break free.

There was a surprised cry. “Look at the kid!”

Everyone turned to look at Long Chen. Even Bai Zhanxiong realized something was amiss and his face paled. He knew something would happen if he didn’t kill Long Chen right away!

Long Chen had no defenses against the Dark Universal Finger unleashed at such a short distance. The entire Yang family was heartbroken!

But suddenly, a layer of glowing red light appeared next to Long Chen and Bai Zhanxiong’s finger attack deflected off the light’s surface. Bai Zhanxiong was caught unawares and blasted backwards with a comically shocked expression.

Long Chen’s mind sank back into his sea of consciousness. He saw in his mind’s eye that the dragon jade and Inherited Blood Essence had merged once again!

Very quickly, the dragon jade pendant turned blood red and a design of a blood-red dragon containing nine dragon veins appeared once more. A current of red energy flowed through the dragon veins!

Long Chen was ecstatic. It was the same as when he’d mastered the powerful Blood Transmutation. This time, the Qi’s path was different. It meant that he was going to learn something different, something surely as powerful as the previous one!

Long Chen mobilized his pale red Qi when he watched the dragon vein pulse. Although he was still in his sea of consciousness, he was connected to his body’s senses. He heard the commotion outside, along with the gasps of the crowd.

When all the patterns on the dragon jade were filled with the red energy, and it separated from the Inherited Blood Essence once more, Long Chen felt that the new skill was nearing completion!

A stream of ancient knowledge flowed into Long Chen's mind. When he learned the skill’s name, his mind retreated from his sea consciousness and he looked at his body.

It was covered in blood-red dragon scales and sharp bony spines, and his body was now ten times more powerful. His pale red Qi had completely darkened into a blood-red color!

The crowd gawked in awe. Even the Yang patriarch and the others slowly ceased their fighting as they watched the dramatic changes to Long Chen’s body. Everything’s changing just like that night but what’s different is that I can control this transformation ...

“That’s the Dragon Soul Transformation!”

As he sensed the immense strength he had gained, Long Chen smirked. He knew everyone was shocked by his transformation. The hall was completely silent. After a few breaths, someone mumbled, “ ... This looks like the transformation of a Beast Warrior. Since when did he become a legendary Beast Warrior?”

Everyone else was thinking of Beast Warriors too once they sensed that Long Chen had become much stronger. There were mixed reactions; some were happy and some sad.

The now-panicking Bai Zhanxiong remained in front of Long Chen but Long Chen’s terrifyingly bloody aura was enough to make him turn ghostly pale!

Before anyone realized it, Long Chen’s eyes locked on Bai Zhanxiong and under everyone’s shocked gaze, he turned into a blood-red shadow and lunged towards Bai Zhanxiong!

As he moved, he made seals at lightning speed and nine furious, blood-red dragon images–which were clearer than ever–twisted around his hands. They let out frightening roars as the rippling energy vibrating between his hands chilled everyone’s hearts!

With such a powerful body and this peculiar but immense Qi, when Long Chen unleashed his most powerful attack, the Primordial Dragon Seal, even an Eighth Draconic Stage warrior would feel suffocated from his aura alone!

“Even an Eighth Draconic Stage warrior would find it difficult to unleash such an attack at this level!” cried an Eighth Draconic Stage warrior from one of Baiyang Town’s second-tier families.

The Bai patriarch, being a more experienced cultivator, knew that the power of the attack was beyond imagination. His expression changed and he yelled, “Xiong’er, move!”

But it was too late. Bai Zhanxiong’s eyes were filled with disbelief when he saw Long Chen’s abrupt increase in strength. A blood-red light membrane had blocked his attack when he tried to kill Long Chen. Now, he could sense the membrane had disappeared. He had another chance to kill Long Chen so why would he move?

“You brat! Your father died because of me; you will die because of me too! This is the fate of your family. There’s no use fighting it! My Nine Yellow Rivers didn’t kill you so let me try again!”

“Dark Universal Finger, Nine Yellow Rivers!”

“Is that so?”

Long Chen moved at high speed, his Primordial Dragon Seal almost complete. The immense energy brought with it a powerful aura that shot to the heavens. It was as if Long Chen had turned into nine roaring, blood-red dragons charging towards Bai Zhanxiong. The stone tiles beneath him exploded into chips that flew into the air!

“Father, I guess you felt humiliated because a nobody like Bai Zhanxiong killed you. That’s why you didn’t tell me about it. But today, I will avenge you!”

Nine blood-red dragons shot out, causing the ground to vibrate. Bai Zhanxiong’s Nine Yellow Rivers attack shot at Long Chen to block his attack. This technique had injured Long Chen before but this time, the tables had turned. The blood red Primordial Dragon Seal shattered the Nine Yellow Rivers into pieces. Then, the seal hit Bai Zhanxiong’s body squarely, and his expression turned to utter disbelief. Bai Zhanxiong’s clothes and personal belongings shattered into pieces!

“Xiong’er!”

“Third Brother!”

“Third Brother!”

The stronger Bai family members were about to rush to Bai Zhanxiong’s aid when the Yang patriarch and the others smirked and shot out in formation, blocking them!

However, they were truly shaken to see Long Chen suddenly growing so strong, especially Yang Xueqing. All she could think about was Long Chen’s glorious form; the bloody, perfect Dragon Soul Transformation filled her with pride! “Was I really so wrong before? What was I thinking? No matter what, he’s still my son ...”

After Long Chen defeated Bai Zhanxiong, everyone else fell completely silent.

The presence of a monster so powerful he broke the laws of nature in the Yang family made it clear that the status quo of the Bai family being number one and the Yang family number two would no longer apply after today.

They all stared at the blood-red figure and gulped. “Is this ... still the same spoiled brat from before?”

The difference was just too startling. Everyone felt their mouths go dry.

It was a twist worthy of a stage play. Initially, the Bai family had suppressed the Yang family, and Bai Zhanxiong had been about to kill Long Chen. Now, the scales had tipped to the other side so the Yang family was suppressing the Bai family and Long Chen was going to kill Bai Zhanxiong. The crowd was curious to see what would happen now that Long Chen had severely injured Bai Zhanxiong with just one move of the Primordial Dragon Seal.

Yang Yuntian watched the blood-red figure and squatted in grief. He knew he would never get to avenge his son in this lifetime.

Long Chen flew high up in the sky like a bird where Yang Yuntian could never touch him!

As Yang Lingqing watched her protector, tears welled up in her eyes. In her heart, Long Chen had become an invincible god.

“Let my son go!” screamed the Bai patriarch in grief. He panicked when he saw Long Chen grab the severely injured Bai Zhanxiong.

Long Chen smirked at his suffering. “Suffering due to fate is forgivable but suffering due to stupidity isn't!”

Then, he looked at Bai Zhanxiong, who looked like Bai Shiji had that morning. His face was sickly pale, and he was spitting out black blood as his frightened eyes looked at Long Chen. Their expression turned from disbelief into hopeless pleading. “M-mercy, I beg you! I don’t want to die ...”

Long Chen felt even more contempt when he saw how cowardly Bai Zhanxiong was. He said flatly, “It’s too late for regret. It would’ve been fine if you didn’t say you’d killed my father. But now that I know the truth, I won’t let you die an easy death!”

Long Chen’s voice rose to a crescendo at the end of his sentence so everyone heard him. Bai Zhanxiong murdered Long Qinglan!

So that’s why Long Chen looked at him with so much hatred! “It’s your own fault for not killing me immediately. Instead, you told me the truth and made me angry! But I won’t make the same mistake!”

Bai Zhanxiong had a bad feeling when he met Long Chen’s icy gaze; Long Chen’s blood-red eyes made Bai Zhanxiong tremble uncontrollably. Bai Zhanxiong started to scream in agony because he could feel every drop of blood in his body turn into blades piercing through his muscles and skin. Long Chen’s peculiar scales were sucking out his blood!

It was Long Chen’s first time using Blood Transmutation on a human, much less a living human! “You killed my father! Naturally, you will receive special treatment. Bai Zhanxiong, enjoy this while it lasts!”

Bai Zhanxiong’s shrill screams and pleas for mercy chilled the spectators’ hearts. They all retreated a few steps, watching Long Chen.

The Bai patriarch’s eyes had grown bloodshot when he heard his son screaming in such a bone-chilling manner. He roared in rage, “Yang Cangqiong! Move! Let my son go! The Yang family shall die for this!”

The Yang patriarch’s face did not change as he continued to fight. “Now it’s my turn to ask you. How are you so na?ve at this age? If Bai Zhanxiong had defeated Chen’er, would you have stopped there?”

The Yang patriarch fed the Bai patriarch his own words, feeling smug. That night, he’d been crushed, his illusion of brotherhood shattered. He had taken a great hit to his dignity, even if he remained silent!

Bai Zhanxiong’s agonized screams were forever branded into everyone’s minds. The spectators drew a sharp breath and their scalps went numb when they watched fresh blood piercing through Bai Zhanxiong’s skin, flowing quickly into Long Chen’s body. They were completely gripped with fear at such gruesome tactics!

Bai Zhanxiong’s blood contained a huge amount of energy. The Qi extracted from a cultivator was much more effective to Long Chen than spirit jades or beast cores. Long Chen’s body refined all of Bai Zhanxiong’s blood essence. A surge of energy rolled through Long Chen’s body and his face lit up. “It’s time to break through the seventh dragon vein–the Human Dragon Vein!”
