C24 The Dragon Might Was Not to be Trifled With!

Qin Feng clearly noticed that Lin Kai was not only unbothered by the pressure but was actually invigorated.

"I understand now! It must be the Celestial Snake Palace's core technique at play!"

The Celestial Snake Palace's cultivation method—the Heavenly Snake Divine Art—embodies the shape of a dragon in snake form, allowing one to evolve through practice into a Flood Dragon and ultimately undergo Dragon Transformation.

The profound secret of the Heavenly Snake Divine Art lies in refining snake skills, steadily progressing until the transformation into a dragon is complete.

Qin Feng didn't know whether this art could truly result in a Dragon Transformation at its peak, but he was confident that warding off some of the Dragon Might's oppression was feasible.

His gaze fixed on Lin Kai, Qin Feng's eyes narrowed with intensity...

The Heavenly Snake Divine Art was incredibly powerful, enabling practitioners to condense zhenqi infused with venomous snake essence, making even a simple blow corrosive.

Putting that aside, Lin Kai's rank as a ninth-level Body Tempering Stage practitioner meant Qin Feng had to treat him with the utmost caution.

Qin Feng understood the risks of acting rashly; the consequences were too unpredictable.

"My defense is strong. Even with the sharpness of the Heavenly Serpent Sword, it would require at least two direct hits to harm me."

"The overwhelming Fist Intent of the Earth Shattering Divine Fist is a formidable technique! If I combine that with the swift surprise of my Phantom Steps, I should be able to defeat Lin Kai."

"Still, I'll only have one chance. Timing is everything!"

Lin Kai had returned to a state of composure, his eyes intently focused on the Dragon Qi, a smile playing on his lips.

"This precious chance is destined to be mine. Someday, I will complete the serpent-to-dragon transformation and rise as a supreme warrior."

With this resolve, Lin Kai could no longer hold back.

"Devour!"

His voice thundered as zhenqi roared within him, conjuring a vivid serpent shadow.

The shadow, massive and lifelike, hissed and wrapped itself tightly around the Dragon Qi.

As the serpent shadow appeared, the temperature in the cave seemed to drop, a chilling, malevolent aura spreading, enough to make one's heart race and blood run cold.

"Roar!"

A golden blaze erupted with a furious roar, resonating like the bellow of a true dragon, exerting a pressure that could shake the very foundations of heaven and earth.

The Dragon Qi had sensed the serpent's intentions and, despite being a mere wisp, it carried the pride of a True Dragon.

It was just a snake. How could it dare to measure itself against a True Dragon?

Dragon Might was sacrosanct!

Sensing the Dragon Qi's fury, Lin Kai's face twisted in sudden alarm.

An overwhelming pressure bore down on him, causing excruciating pain throughout his body. The snake shadow he had summoned was shattered in an instant.

Lin Kai was hurled backward, spewing mouthfuls of blood.

"This is my moment!"

Qin Feng's eyes sparkled with resolve as he surged forward like a bolt of lightning, crushing the stones beneath his feet in his frenzied charge.

"Who dares?!"

Lin Kai, thrown back by the blast, screamed in rage, his face contorted with madness.

This Dragon Qi was his ticket to unparalleled power, and he would not allow anyone to steal it from him!

"Phantom Steps!"

Qin Feng pushed the Phantom Steps to their limit, his speed was terrifyingly fast.

The closer Qin Feng got to the Dragon Qi, the more intense the reaction from his Primordial True Dragon Technique became, as if he were a wanderer finally returning home.

Amidst this, Qin Feng felt his bodily strength increase yet again.

"Merely approaching it has made me stronger! How much more will I improve if I refine it?"

Qin Feng drew in a sharp breath, his heart racing with both shock and thrill.

However, at this critical moment, Qin Feng's stride stumbled, and his figure began to slow.

The Phantom Steps had drained him; his zhenqi could no longer keep up.

"You're courting death, kid!"

Spotting Qin Feng's pause, Lin Kai brandished his Heavenly Serpent Sword and struck with the might of thunder, aiming a lethal blow at Qin Feng.
