147: Who can tell whether it is fear or excitement in her heart?
It was too fast!
The moment the golden light appeared, everyone only heard a few roars, and then saw Jun Lingxiao pressed to the ground by a Dragon claw, with such force that it even stirred up a wave of Qi that swept out!
True Dragon True Body, this was something only a few talented individuals in the True Dragon Clan could comprehend; others might also grasp it with age, but a True Body and a True Dragon True Body were not the same. The former was merely manifesting one's True Body, while the latter was a blessing from heaven and earth, thousands upon thousands of times more powerful.
This was Lan Xue, the princess of the True Dragon Clan's, power.
"Is the victor decided now?"
"Not necessarily, my Your Highness hasn't used that famous Heavenly Sword technique yet."
"Isn't using Dao Law cheating?"
"Ah? Then isn't your princess's current state also cheating?"
"This is a Bloodline skill, not a Dao Law, and besides, tell me, isn't this her Physical Body!"
Everyone looked on, falling into thought as they gazed at the enormous golden Dragon.
It truly was a pure Physical Body confrontation, but wasn't this a little too unfair?
The Jun Family members thought, pondering how Jun Lingxiao would respond next.
But unexpectedly, facing the enormous Dragon head, Jun Lingxiao nodded calmly.
"I surrender."
It truly was worthy of being a True Dragon. His Domain and Dharma Aspect shattered in an instant. With such a huge Realm difference, and the opponent also being a Prodigy among Prodigies, reaching this level under normal circumstances was already incredibly impressive.
He could afford to lose.
Upon hearing this, Lan Xue's burning eyes drew closer, as if checking if Jun Lingxiao was lying.
After seeing his earnest gaze, the terrifying intensity in her eyes finally receded somewhat, and only then did she release him, her mood greatly improved.
Her tail swayed with her mood, showing how pleased she was.
"Hmph, I thought he was more impressive. Although you are very strong for a Human Race member, there's still a considerable gap between you and me, this princess."
"Cultivate more and come again!"
Lan Xue lifted her head and made a bold declaration, immersed in the joy of victory. This feeling was somewhat strange; the opponent was clearly not that strong, but she felt this victory was exceptionally satisfying.
After speaking, she suddenly seemed to remember something, lowering her head and looking at Jun Lingxiao with her golden eyes: "But don't be discouraged, your current strength already surpasses many people."
Oh, she was even afraid of disheartening Jun Lingxiao. After her moment of triumph, she began to comfort him.
The fight just now was very enjoyable, and she wanted to have more such fights in the future. It would be terrible if Jun Lingxiao became disheartened.
"Hahahaha!" From a distance, Lord Dragon, who had been watching, finally couldn't hold back his laughter, doubling over with mirth.
Jun Siyu looked at the suddenly laughing Lord Dragon, somewhat bewildered, while he, from afar, began to shout at Jun Lingxiao:
"Hey! Kid, show some real skill, or else she'll really think that you, a dignified Divine Son, are only this much."
Lord Dragon's shouting attracted the attention of many people, who all looked over. Jun Lingxiao naturally heard him too.
Originally, he had intended to stop at a certain point, as things shouldn't be taken too far. After all, he felt somewhat indebted to her and needed to humor her.
But now... "Since you, old man, have spoken, very well."
"The first round, I lost. Now, the second round begins."
After Jun Lingxiao finished speaking, his entire Aura retracted, giving him a completely different feeling.
That amiable sensation gradually faded, replaced by a certain solemnity. Just looking at him, one felt an inherent majesty, as if the innate arrogance deep within his bones began to radiate, and his entire presence grew stronger and stronger.
It was a presence that, even in the face of a True Dragon manifesting, would involuntarily draw one's gaze to him.
"..."
A subtle yet powerful pressure began to permeate the air. Lan Xue said nothing, but instead focused entirely on Jun Lingxiao, observing his every movement, anticipating what might happen next.
Her attention was completely on Jun Lingxiao, but she didn't realize that Jun Lingxiao had no intention of making a move.
When she felt the gust of wind, she instinctively looked up, and what she saw... was an enormous Dragon tail that had already reached her!
Boom!!!
With another loud bang, Lan Xue's massive form was directly sent flying backward by the strike, looking utterly disheveled.
"You cheated!!" A voice filled with surprise and anger rang out. Only then did she realize that what had just attacked her was none other than herself!
The enormous Jun Family Main Hall stood in mid-air. Her figure slowly emerged from within, and the two golden True Dragons looked at each other in dismay. Where could she not know that this was the Law of Jun Lingxiao's Domain!
Facing her accusation, Jun Lingxiao's expression remained unchanged, his tone calm: "I've studied the True Dragon's True Dragon True Body; it's a combination of Domain and Dharma Aspect. In contrast, it seems very reasonable for me to use my Domain."
"Or are you saying you just want me to let you win?"
His words undoubtedly infuriated Lan Xue. She was about to erupt in anger, but the next moment! She saw Jun Lingxiao actually dismiss his Domain!
"Alright then, I won't use my Domain."
The Jun Family Main Hall slowly descended, and Lan Xue's clone gradually dissipated.
But if he didn't use his Domain, how could he defeat her in her True Dragon form?
Dao Law? Dharma Aspect?
As Lan Xue and the others were constantly guessing, she herself didn't even realize that she had already forgotten Jun Lingxiao's Realm at this moment, treating him as an evenly matched opponent.
It wasn't that she hadn't looked for an opportunity to strike, but strangely, when Jun Lingxiao stood there, he seemed to have no weaknesses at all? His entire being exuded an extremely dangerous Aura, making it difficult for her to attack.
'I can only wait for him to make a move and find an opportunity.' Lan Xue thought this. Her True Body's defensive power was extraordinary, as proven by the fact that the previous tail strike hadn't even truly injured her.
She was waiting for the moment Jun Lingxiao would strike.
Most of the people present hadn't realized that Jun Lingxiao was no longer the same as before. In the past, he would indeed have to go all out against an opponent of this caliber, but now he had transcended all existing Cultivate systems.
Simply put, he was now outside the rules.
Jun Lingxiao remained standing in place, seemingly unguarded, as he pointed a finger and snapped his fingers.
The next moment... a black bolt of terrifying lightning instantly descended from the sky, striking Lan Xue directly with a huge explosion!
"Divine Authority!"
"It's Divine Authority!"
At this moment, not many people were concerned about the battle itself; this was their first time witnessing what was called Divine Authority.
It was a strangely shaped black lightning bolt falling from the sky, yet also like a Slash that tore through the Void Realm. The combination of the two formed an extremely bizarre sight.
Undoubtedly, anything would be annihilated by this strange lightning Slash.
After admiring it, everyone looked towards Lan Xue's location as if waking from a dream.
Her enormous Dragon body had dispersed, transforming into a human form, slumped on the ground. The black lightning bolt remained suspended an inch above her forehead, not falling.
But even so, she had truly walked through the gates of hell just now.
At this moment, Lan Xue's face was pale, and she was unconsciously gasping for breath—the gasps of someone who had narrowly escaped death.
It was then that she suddenly realized that... she wasn't invincible after all, that she too could die, that this was what it felt like to be on the verge of death, so... tiny and powerless.
"It's a draw."
"But you're not bad either; you can still become stronger in the future."
She looked up, and Jun Lingxiao's face appeared before her. The corners of his eyes curved slightly, a somewhat playful smile, as if teasing her about her previous remarks.
Sunlight spilled onto his profile, imbuing him with a touch of holiness, making Lan Xue momentarily dazed, as if she had fallen into a dreamlike illusion from which she couldn't extricate herself.
Nor did she want to extricate herself.
"Mm."
Lan Xue tilted her head and softly hummed a response through her nose. Whether from fright or a momentary inability to recover, her voice was soft and gentle, a stark contrast to her usual proud self.
No one noticed her peculiarity, except for Lord Dragon, her father.
He squinted his eyes and saw his daughter sitting there in a daze, her gaze involuntarily fixed on Jun Lingxiao, following his movements.
Others simply thought she was frightened and hadn't recovered.
But only Lan Xue knew that as she gazed at Jun Lingxiao's face with a slightly dazed expression, she felt no fear or terror in her heart. If there was anything strange... there certainly was.
That was... her heart was pounding fiercely in her chest.
It was... a pulsation almost bursting out of her chest.
This feeling was unprecedented, leaving her at a loss.
