177: Qi and blood turn into dragons, martial arts master!

Perhaps his Soul had just undergone sublimation.

Or perhaps Yang Dian was indeed a born Star Saint Body.

In any case, the speed at which the stars appeared was much faster than he had imagined.

After a mere three hours, as the sky began to faintly whiten, the one hundred and eleventh star materialized from nothing, lighting up its own radiance in the place where his Soul resided.

Twilight met dawn, the boundary between day and night.

Yang Dian stood upright on the vast sea, ripples spreading out from the center of his toes.

He looked up at the Morning Star in The East, which still emitted its own light amidst the dawn, then spread his five fingers, raised his right hand, covered his mouth and head with his palm, and let out a light chuckle.

“Heh~”

“Qi Blood Dragon Transformation?”

As his voice fell, vast Qi and Blood surged out from his body, transforming into a pillar of smoke that shot thousands of feet into the sky, stirring up fierce winds!

At the same time, at the observation station of the Chinese Navy's Fuzhou Division.

The moment Yang Dian's Qi and Blood erupted, a piercing alarm sounded in the observation station.

“Beep beep beep beep beep…”

“Alarm, alarm…”

“Southeastern Chinese waters, near Fuzhou City, high-energy fluctuations outside the database detected…”

“Warning, warning…”

“Near Fuzhou City, high-energy fluctuations outside the database detected…”

“Beep~ SkyNet satellite deployed for real-time monitoring…”

“Beep…”

After one beep, there were several continuous and urgent “beep beep” sounds.

Just as the guard in the observation station was on high alert, ready to press the red button at any moment.

The voice from the loudspeaker made his right hand, which was hovering over the red button, tremble violently.

“Beep~ Alarm cleared.”

The guard withdrew his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

“Good thing, good thing, my hand didn't shake.”

“If I had pressed it, something big would have happened.”

After muttering a few words, he heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the observation station.

He stood up, turned his head, and upon seeing the arrivals, immediately stood at attention and saluted:

“Commander Wang!”

It was indeed Wang Quan, who had jogged into the observation station with three other people.

Wang Quan returned his salute, then asked:

“Why did the alarm in the observation station suddenly go off just now?”

The guard pointed to the radar:

“The radar suddenly detected high-energy fluctuations in the waters near Fuzhou City, but for some reason, the alarm was then cleared.”

“I haven't had time to check the relevant information yet.”

Wang Quan nodded and gestured towards the control panel:

“See what's going on.”

As he spoke, he sighed again:

“The sea has been getting more and more chaotic lately.”

“The Neptune Octopus, which first appeared on our side two days ago, ran to Tokyo Bay and caused a lot of trouble.”

“At the time, I was still celebrating that it ran to Tokyo; if it had caused trouble on our side, we would have been in big trouble.”

“Besides Tokyo Bay, traces of Sea King Class Creatures have also been found in the Gulf of Aden and the Black Sea.”

“Now the radar System has suddenly issued an alarm; it better not be some Sea King Class Creature that has come to our side.”

As he spoke, with a series of operations by the guard, an incredibly clear image appeared on the screen.

“Uh? How is it him?”

In the image, Yang Dian was lying on his back on the sea surface, his eyes tightly closed.

If it weren't for the fact that Yang Dian in the image was completely unharmed and his chest was slightly rising and falling, he would have thought he was seriously injured and could only lie on the sea to recover.

“How was high-energy detected on him?”

“Did he fight with some sea beast?”

“But that's not right either.”

“High-energy, it only appears in City-Level…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Yang Dian, who was lying on his back on the sea, suddenly open his eyes and stand upright.

Then, vast Qi and Blood erupted from his body, soaring into the sky.

The AI seemed to be aware of Wang Quan and the others' stunned state and thoughtfully paused the image, marking a set of data next to the Qi and Blood smoke pillar.

[The Qi and Blood smoke pillar soared one thousand one hundred and eleven zhang, approximately 3703 meters high.]

The image paused for 5 seconds.

By the time Wang Quan and the others recovered, the originally straight Qi and Blood smoke pillar had already dispersed into Qi and Blood mist, spreading over a hundred-meter radius around Yang Dian.

Then, the Qi and Blood mist began to rotate clockwise, and in an instant, it stirred up a water spout several hundred meters high, raging on the sea surface under a clear sky.

After a few more minutes, it seemed as if the person inside the water spout had grown tired of playing.

The sky-connecting water spout suddenly dispersed after a moment of stagnation, and the remaining blood-colored tornado instantly condensed into a lifelike blood-colored Dragon Claw, which slammed down heavily towards the sea surface.

“Boom~~~”

Although there was no sound, Wang Quan and the others still subconsciously added sound effects to the splash that filled the entire screen.

The splashing water fell, drawing a rainbow under the morning sun.

The figure standing on the sea also seemed to nod with satisfaction, leaping up from the sea surface.

Then, Qi and Blood swirled around him, carrying him unsteadily, slowly, yet incredibly quickly, disappearing from the camera's view.

Wang Quan swore that he had truly not misused the above three sets of adjectives.

When Yang Dian first took flight, perhaps because it was his first time flying, he flew unsteadily and slowly, clearly not proficient.

But then, Yang Dian, with a speed he couldn't comprehend, mastered the knack of flying and disappeared from the screen at an extremely fast pace.

As the image paused, the AI's usual stern voice also reached Wang Quan and the others through the player.

“Do you wish to play this image again?”

Wang Quan opened his mouth, then shook his head, letting out a wry smile:

“It's already shown so clearly, why play it again?”

“Is that Yang Dian? The newly appointed Deputy Director of the Fuzhou City Special Administration Bureau?”

“Holy crap?!!!”

“A Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm serving as a Deputy Director in a Special Administration Bureau of a second-tier city?”

“What a joke?”

Wang Quan was doubting life, and Qi Zhao, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but cough:

“Commander Wang, have you forgotten something?”

Wang Quan was stunned:

“What did I forget?”

“More than a month ago, Director Yang also sent the message about Charles and others transporting drugs into the country at Yangjiao Bay.”

“At that time, I glanced at his information; he had only joined the Special Administration Bureau a few days prior.”

“Oh, and he's only 18 years old, just started his freshman year this year, a Fuda University biology student.”

Wang Quan blinked, even more bewildered:

“18 years old?”

“Freshman?”

“City-Level powerhouse?”

“Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm Martial Arts Grandmaster?”

“The existence referred to as a legend in The West?”

“A combat power that could wipe out a nation if placed in Africa?”

“Are these words that can be combined together?”

…Wang Quan was doubting life.

Yang Dian, who had flown in the sky for a while and then landed on the shore, pulled out his phone and shook it.

The highly waterproof confidential phone powered on with Yang Dian's light touch.

Seeing the date displayed on his phone, he smiled.

“A mere Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm Martial Ancestor, easily handled.”

With that, he put away his phone and turned his head to look towards The West.

“Today is the 12th, meaning it took a total of 12 days from acquiring the resources to achieving Breakthrough.”

“Much faster than planned.”

“The event in the prophecy erupted in mid-September.”

“Good, I should be able to make it in time to join the fun.”

“I just don't know if the organization will send anyone over.”

“If it's just me going alone…”

He clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within his body.

Yang Dian blinked slightly, scanning the traits on his panel that he had painstakingly cultivated through daily effort, and nodded.

“Going alone, it doesn't seem impossible…”
