Chapter 21 Dragon Step, Dragon Tablet Hand (1/2)
“Two Genesis techniques?!”
Zhou Yuan’s heart shook, eyes full of excitement as he looked towards Yaoyao. The Dragon Breathing method master Cang Yuan had imparted to him was deeply profound and obviously not ordinary at all. Hence, the two Genesis techniques contained within it were likely not simple as well.
Yaoyao gently stroked the Tuntun and slowly said, “These two Genesis techniques are known as the Dragon Step and the Dragon Tablet Hand.”
“Dragon Step? Dragon Tablet Hand?” A pensive look emerged on Zhou Yuan’s face.
He could faintly sense that there were indeed some mysteries within the ninety eight forms of the frolicking dragon. However, he was incapable of clearly identifying them. After all, the only thing master Cang Yuan had done was throw Dragon Breathing at him, and a disciple groping about in the dark by himself would undoubtedly result in rather slow progress.
Thus, he begged with his eyes at Yaoyao.
Yaoyao displayed a very faint smile and winked at him.
Zhou Yuan knew what she meant. With a wave of his hand, a servant girl immediately sent over a bottle of fine liquor. Only then did Yaoyao nod her head in satisfaction before lifting Tuntun and throwing it out of the stone pavilion.
Upon seeing her actions, Zhou Yuan’s eyelids jumped as a feeling of unease bubbled within him. “Could it be that Tuntun also knows?”
Yaoyao’s red lips curved slightly, displaying a playful expression as she replied, “Back then, grandpa Hei would teach Tuntun whenever he had nothing to do. Strictly speaking, Tuntun can be considered your senior brother disciple.”
The corners of Zhou Yuan’s mouth twitched as he involuntarily howled in his heart, “Was Tuntun a human wearing the skin of a beast? How the heck was it even able to learn Genesis techniques?! Exactly what kind of beast was it?”
No matter how he howled in his heart however, he still had to learn what needed to be learnt. Hence, he could only look towards Tuntun, gently rub its head and show an extremely kind smile. “Good Tuntun. Show me the Dragon Step and Dragon Tablet Hand.”
However, Tuntun was currently in a bad mood due to being thrown by Yaoyao. Thus, it merely swept a lazy glance at Zhou Yuan before laying down, refusing to move.
Zhou Yuan extended a finger and prodded Tuntun’s fat stomach, causing a wave of meat to ripple. However, no matter how he poked and prodded, the latter did not respond at all as if it was dead.
Zhou Yuan raised an eyebrow when he saw that the little bastard was acting dead. Subsequently, he beckoned with his hand and a servant girl immediately brought over a plate of dried Genesis Beast meat.
Tuntun’s eyes moved the moment its smelled the fragrance of food. It instantly got up and pounced at the plate with a bark.
Zhou Yuan pulled the plate away, causing Tuntun to pounce at empty air. It immediately bared its teeth at Zhou Yuan and snarled.
“Show me a first and I’ll let you eat.” Zhou Yuan was all smiles.
Tuntun looked at Zhou Yuan and then looked at the enticing Genesis Beast meat. In the end, it came to a compromise before the delicious food and stood up on two legs. Its paw-feet slanted at an angle and it began to display a series of bizarre footwork.
Each step was wide and bold but gave off a mist-like sensation. Its body quickly became somewhat blur and it faintly seemed as if a real dragon was soaring within the mist, making it difficult to make out.
A small creature standing up on its hind legs and displaying complicated footwork was usually a rather comical sight. However, Zhou Yuan’s expression was exceptionally serious while his eyes were unblinkingly fixed on Tuntun.
“This is known as the Dragon Step. A dragon hides within the clouds, barely visible. Dragon Step similarly has a misty and illusory feeling, making others incapable of catching hold of you.” Yaoyao’s indifferent voice echoed from the stone pavilion.
“You may try to attack Tuntun.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan clenched his hand and the Heavenly Yuan Brush landed within it. “Martial form!”
The foot-long Heavenly Yuan Brush abruptly grew as Zhou Yuan grabbed it with both hands. Its body swiftly shot forward, wind accompanying the tip of the brush as it pierced towards Tuntun in a tricky manner.
Zhou Yuan had spent a substantial amount of time practicing basic spear techniques recently. Therefore, the way he used the Heavenly Yuan Brush now looked a little imposing.
The brush tip ferociously shot forward. However, just as it was about to strike Tuntun, the latter’s feet slanted and its body seemed to fade away, causing the brush tip to slide past.
Zhou Yuan could not believe his eyes. Power circulated in his arms as the Heavenly Yuan Brush fiercely thrust forward with swishing sounds. It was a rather intimidating sight.
However, Tuntun continued to move, neither fast nor slow, as its body seemed to fade away from time to time. Zhou Yuan was unable to even graze the former no matter how he attacked.
