Chapter 198 Splitting the Sacred Dragon Blessing (1/2)

On the ruins of what was once a white jade plaza, Zhou Yuan was kneeling on one knee. His expression was deathly pale, the Genesis Qi around his body extremely weak, while the Spirit between his brows was so dim that it seemed as if it was about to be extinguished.

He gently turned his gaze, eyes indifferent as he looked towards the headless body behind him.

Bzz!

All of a sudden, Wu Huang’s headless corpse began to tremble faintly. A split second later, a flash of light dashed out from his stump of a neck, the roar of a dragon echoing within it.

A faint translucent dragon silhouette was revealed within the light.

The dragon silhouette was ancient and noble, like a gift from the heavens.

Zhou Yuan heart violently shook when he saw it. He could feel an extremely intimate and familiar aura from it...

“The sacred dragon blessing…”

There was a slight tremble in Zhou Yuan’s voice. Back then, king Wu had extracted the sacred dragon blessing from his body and infused it into Great Wu’s python and sparrow...

He never imagined that a dozen years later, he would once again be able to feel the sacred dragon blessing that originally belonged to him.

Hss!

The Omni Python Qi in Zhou Yuan’s Qi Dwelling began to stir violently. A hiss seemed to echo, filled with an indescribable thirst and desire.

Bzz!

The translucent dragon silhouette coiled in mid-air for a moment, before suddenly sweeping dowards.

However, it was not headed towards Zhou Yuan but Wu Huang’s decapitated head.

“Wu Huang, I knew that you will not die so easily!” Chilling light blossomed in Zhou Yuan’s eyes, no hesitation whatsoever as he immediately threw a punch. The tiny bit of Genesis Qi that had just recovered in his body whizzed out without reservation, ruthlessly blasting towards Wu Huang’s head.

At this moment, the head on the ground suddenly opened its eyes. Light appeared between its brows, revealing a faint illusory figure.

It was Wu Huang’s Spirit.

Zhou Yuan had slayed Wu Huang’s physical body, but his Spirit had hid itself between his brows.

When the gazes both inside and outside Saint Remains saw this, they burst out in alarm, “Wu Huang’s Spirit has not faded together with his body?”

“It seems that he has a Spirit protection treasure. That’s how his Spirit hid in his head.”

“But the Spirit is useless without a body unless it steps into the Corporeal stage. However, Wu Huang's Spirit was clearly far from that level!”

”Zhou Yuan only needs to pulverise his head. His Spirit will then have nowhere to hide, making it an easy target.”

“...”

Swish!

Spirit power spread from the spot between his brows, lifting the head into the air and avoiding Zhou Yuan's attack. The head's mouth opened, attempting to suck away the sacred dragon blessing.

”Heavenly Yuan Brush!”

Zhou Yuan drew the Heavenly Yuan Brush at his waist with ice-cold eyes. With a little shake, the brush began to grow, its snow-white hairs stretching into long snow-white whips that swiftly pierced towards Wu Huang’s head.

Wu Huang no longer dared to take back the sacred dragon blessing, quickly abandoning his previous actions. His head rose, avoiding the snow-white hairs.

Wu Huang’s head flew about, his mouth opening and closing as an eerie voice sounded, “Zhou Yuan, I was indeed too confident this time. However, it will not be so easy for you to kill me!”

Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly and suddenly grabbed with his hand.

Ch!

Hairs that could not be seen with the naked eye suddenly appeared out of nowhere, quickly surrounding Wu Huang’s head. In the next moment, all of them shot towards their target, piercing Wu Huang’s head.

Bang!

As the hairs swept past, Wu Huang’s head burst into pieces.

Though the head was destroyed, Zhou Yuan frowned slightly. He had caught sight of a palm-sized illusory figure rising from the mist of blood.

That Spirit naturally belonged to Wu Huang.

However, there was a layer of glittering star light wrapped around Wu Huang’s illusory Spirit like a set of clothes. It was the protection of this star clothes that allowed Wu Huang’s mid Illusory stage Spirit to separate from his body.

“Spirit armor?!”

Zhou Yuan’s pupils shrank. The star clothes was a kind of Spirit armor that could protect one’s Spirit. Even normal Corporeal stage Spirit cultivators were unable to create one.

It was obvious that Wu Huang had a very powerful backer.

Wu Huang’s Spirit looked over and coldly said, “Zhou Yuan, I said that you can’t kill me!”

“Humph, want to take back the sacred dragon blessing? Dream on. It has been in my body for over a dozen years, making my control over it greater than yours. Once I take it back, there will naturally be a chance for revenge in the future!”

Wu Huang’s hands quickly formed a seal, and the sacred dragon blessing began to tremble. In the end, it began to flow towards Wu Huang’s Spirit.
