Chapter 248: True Dragon Treasure Technique

The Wind-Thunder Jiao coiled at the bottom of the pool, its massive, pitch-black body spiraling upward like a small mountain. Its serpentine head glared at Ye Chen, its gaze icy and bloodthirsty, as if it might lunge and swallow him whole at any moment.

Staring at such a creature lurking in the shadows was unsettling, to say the least.

Ye Chen figured the Wind-Thunder Jiao hadn’t attacked yet because it suspected he was bait. Though Golden Core demon beasts couldn’t yet take human form, their intelligence rivaled that of humans. Having been burned once, it was naturally wary.

If you won’t come to me, I’ll come to you.

Ye Chen began sinking deeper into the pool, but he didn’t head straight for the beast. Instead, he veered in another direction, pretending to search for it, occasionally firing off a spell to illuminate small patches of the dark water.

As he descended further, the Wind-Thunder Jiao’s blood-red eyes tracked him. Its massive body glided closer, silent despite its size, not stirring a single ripple in the water. It closed the distance until it was just ten meters from Ye Chen.

Ye Chen maintained his oblivious act.

With cold intent, the Wind-Thunder Jiao struck, its claw crackling with boundless lightning, slashing toward him. But in the next moment, its enormous pupils contracted sharply.

Ye Chen’s Heavy Pupil saw through everything, even the murky Netherwater.

Sensing the Wind-Thunder Jiao had taken the bait, a grin spread across his face. He had countless cards to play, more than enough ways to deal with the beast. But since breaking through, he hadn’t yet tested the True Dragon Treasure Technique inherited from the Ancestral Dragon Blood. This was the perfect chance to try it out.

As the Wind-Thunder Jiao’s claw descended, Ye Chen’s body erupted in golden light. Even the dark Netherwater couldn’t dim its radiance, which blazed like a sun. His aura transformed, surging with overwhelming power and an unassailable majesty, his strength unfathomable.

The beast’s claw, capable of shredding any Golden Core cultivator and even daunting to a Nascent Soul, stopped a mere meter from Ye Chen, blocked by an invisible force. It couldn’t advance an inch further. The raging lightning couldn’t harm him in the slightest.

The Wind-Thunder Jiao trembled, gripped by a primal fear rooted in its bloodline.

What kind of technique was this? What kind of power?

With only a trace of dragon blood, it lacked the capacity to recognize the True Dragon Treasure Technique.

At that moment, Ye Chen turned to face the beast. In his hands, the principles of the Dao and the Law took form. He unleashed one of the True Dragon Treasure Technique’s basic techniques, the True Dragon Claw.

Before the True Dragon Claw, the Wind-Thunder Jiao trembled, its instincts screaming to flee. But in the next instant…

A sharp pain tore through its abdomen. The claw nearly ripped its massive body in two, tearing off its underbelly, including both abdominal claws, with raw force. The beast’s formidable scales and hide offered no resistance against the True Dragon Claw.

The sheer terror of the technique was evident. And this was merely one of the True Dragon Treasure Technique’s introductory moves.

Ye Chen marveled inwardly at the power of the True Dragon Treasure Technique. It wasn’t just its devastating force; it amplified his own strength, boosting his combat power exponentially. If he could fully master it in the future, he might even manifest the form of a true dragon, wielding supreme majesty and power.

As the premier attack technique among the Ten Vicious Treasure Techniques, the True Dragon Treasure Technique lived up to its reputation.

Ye Chen pressed on, diving deeper into its mysteries. He threw out several punches, each one a manifestation of another basic technique: the Dragon Fist.

With every punch, a gaping, bloody hole exploded in the Wind-Thunder Jiao’s massive body. In mere moments, the beast was riddled with wounds, its tail blasted apart.

Most terrifying of all, with each punch, Ye Chen’s aura surged, as if he were gathering momentum, growing ever more formidable.

Not only was the Wind-Thunder Jiao increasingly terrified, but even Ye Chen was struck anew by the True Dragon Treasure Technique’s might. The True Dragon Claw and Dragon Fist were just beginner techniques, yet they were already this fearsome. What about the core techniques, like the True Dragon Heaven-Binding Art or the True Dragon Sky-Severing Art? Wouldn’t they be capable of shattering heaven and earth?

Lost in awe, Ye Chen continued to channel the True Dragon Treasure Technique, eager to unleash more and deepen his understanding. The dormant Ancestral Dragon Blood within him stirred, amplifying his majestic aura. The Dao and Law emanating from his movements grew ever more terrifying.
