Yu Long Ao

Candle Dragon Secret Realm, edge of the Ninth Area.

Long Ao, who was advancing toward the Ninth Area, suddenly felt a chill, as if he had been targeted by some malevolent entity.

He immediately stopped and scanned his surroundings.

Such strange behavior naturally attracted the attention of his companions.

"Young Lord Long Ao, what is wrong?"

"Has your Bloodline reacted to something?"

Since entering this place, Long Ao had not had any particular reactions.

Even though his internal candle dragon true blood had already undergone Awakening, and a third eye symbolizing the Candle Dragon's control over time had appeared on his forehead.

Although this third eye could not yet be opened.

Hearing what the person beside him said, Long Ao immediately began to sense his surroundings.

He then hurriedly looked in one direction.

"That direction! I sense a presence in that direction that has a similar reaction to mine!"

This direction was none other than where Shen Ming and Su Ming were located.

The unrefined candle dragon true blood was currently inside Shen Ming, so it was perfectly normal for him to have sensed it.

"Since Young Lord Long Ao has sensed something, there must be something related to Lord Candle Dragon over there. I will go investigate now. You all follow later, and be sure to protect Young Lord Long Ao."

This suggestion was not opposed by anyone, so the cannon fodder Dragon Court Dragon Clan member who proposed it began to advance toward Su Ming.

The Dragon Court Dragon Clan entered the Candle Dragon Secret Realm primarily to center around Long Ao.

The other clansmen were merely cannon fodder to scout the path for Long Ao.

Even if all the other clansmen were wiped out in the Candle Dragon Secret Realm, leading to the failure of the exploration, they had to ensure Long Ao left alive.

The Dragon Court Dragon Clan member scouting ahead soon encountered Su Ming and Shen Ming.

"Dragon Court Dragon Clan, it seems we didn't choose the wrong direction... Attack!"

At Su Ming's command, Shen Ming immediately rushed forward, striking first before the Dragon Court Dragon Clan member could react.

Its fangs pierced directly through the dragon scales and into the flesh. Shen Ming then pushed the Dragon Court Dragon Clan member to the ground, its sharp claws tightly pinning the body down.

The tubes at the tips of its sharp claws pierced into the Dragon Court Dragon Clan member, unscrupulously beginning to drain the opponent's Lifespan and dragon blood.

In less than a minute, the body of the Dragon Court Dragon Clan member before them turned into a dried corpse.

Shen Ming's cultivation was currently under a Seal, but that did not mean its strength was only at the Void Realm Peak.

Realizing that the scout ahead was dead, Long Ao and the others reacted immediately and wanted to retreat.

However, Su Ming had already arrived beside them through continuous spatial transfers.

'Chaos Domain' was immediately deployed, suppressing the surrounding spiritual energy.

Sensing the surrounding power of Chaos, Long Ao immediately displayed an instinctive, stress-like reaction.

"Kill him! No matter the cost! Kill this human!"

Facing Long Ao's command, the members of the Dragon Court Dragon Clan immediately revealed their true forms and launched an attack on Su Ming.

However, facing the incoming dragon claws, dragon tails, and other Dragon Clan Divine Abilities, Su Ming was able to evade them all through spatial transfers.

This was the true value of still being able to use spatial movement abilities within the Secret Realm.

Unless the opponent possessed an attack method like the heaven-destroying whip that completely locked onto the target, it would be impossible to hit Su Ming.

And within this 'Chaos Domain', apart from Su Ming, no one else could replenish their consumed spiritual energy.

The longer the battle dragged on, the more advantageous it was for Su Ming.

"Let me see how many supreme destiny points you can get me!"

Looking at Long Ao, who had revealed his true form and had a third eye on his forehead, Su Ming brandished 'Taichu' and charged toward him.

"Kill you! I must kill you!"

Even Long Ao could not figure out why he held such immense killing intent toward a human he had never met before.

But the killing intent in his mind did not allow him to think it through further.

His massive dragon eyes stared at Su Ming, and then he let out a roar.

Su Ming, who was passing through a spatial anchor, felt his entire body freeze after hearing this roar.

Subsequently, the attacks from the other Dragon Court Dragon Clan members arrived as expected, striking Su Ming heavily.

Falling to the ground, Su Ming smashed a huge crater into the earth, and then these Dragon Court Dragon Clan members unleashed their Divine Abilities to attack him again.

However, Su Ming, having been struck, stood up from the large pit as if nothing had happened, continuing to counter the Dragon Court's siege with ease.

During the battle, Su Ming even had time to spare to think about what had just happened.

Just then, Long Ao let out another roar.

Su Ming's body, which had been moving, froze once again and was hit by the attacks from the Dragon Court members.

At this moment, Su Ming finally realized what had happened.

Just like before, his memory only remained at the moment he was struck.

"This guy, did he stop the time around me?"

Turning his head to look at Long Ao, Su Ming noticed that the third eye on the opponent's forehead seemed to have signs of opening, and he was currently planning to let out a third roar.

That was not just some ordinary roar, but some kind of Divine Ability!

And it was very likely the Divine Ability he gained after his candle dragon Bloodline underwent Awakening!

"Do you really think you are worthy of stopping my time!?"

An item suddenly appeared in Su Ming's hand, and then Su Ming immediately charged toward Long Ao.

Long Ao stared fixedly at Su Ming and let out a third roar.

However, this time, Su Ming was completely unaffected, still maintaining his original speed as he charged toward him.

Seeing this, Long Ao was immediately unable to understand; clearly, his Divine Ability had been unleashed, so why had the time of the human before him not been stopped!?

Without giving Long Ao time to figure out this problem, Su Ming had already arrived in front of his face, wielding 'Taichu', which had transformed into a long blade.

He swung the weapon in his hand violently. Although Long Ao had reacted, his massive size still made it difficult for him to dodge Su Ming's blade.

A huge dragon horn was directly severed by Su Ming's blade.

Long Ao roared in pain, and the third eye on his forehead finally opened completely at this moment.

"Is this the help of destiny?"

That newly opened third eye immediately locked onto Su Ming's position, and then a beam of light refracted from it.

This was the same kind of lock-on as when the heaven-destroying whip launched an attack; it was impossible to escape through spatial transfer means.

Not understanding what kind of Divine Ability that was, Su Ming immediately contracted the 'Chaos Domain' around himself, changing the form of the Chaos power to protect himself.

The next instant, that beam of light engulfed Su Ming.

Su Ming immediately realized what kind of Divine Ability this was.

He could feel that the time on his body was reversing!

He was not one of those ordinary Void Realm cultivators who had only Cultivated for a few decades; a Divine Ability like time reversal was extremely lethal when applied to him!

In just a moment of exposure, the time on Su Ming's body had regressed by a month!

If he could not escape the coverage of this light, it would be even more dangerous next!

Just as Su Ming was thinking about how to escape, Shen Ming suddenly rushed out from the side and knocked Long Ao flying.

"Master, I am late..."
