Chapter 288 - 287: Condensing the True Dragon Dharma Aspect! Breakthrough to the Celestial Venerable Realm is Imminent
Meng Tianxuan froze, his anger flaring as his face darkened.
"Qin Yang, don’t be so ungrateful! I’ve already shown you more than enough respect. After offering you so much, you still dare to refuse me?!"
"Hmph. No matter how many times you ask, my answer will be the same."
Qin Yang said coldly, crossing his arms and taking a slow step back. "Say whatever you want. The Heaven-Blasting Gang has no interest in associating with a hypocrite like you!"
"I’m from Jianghai. The bottom line is, you absolutely cannot touch it!"
"Foolish! You’re courting your own destruction!"
Meng Tianxuan gritted his teeth, glaring at Qin Yang with bitter disappointment. "You can’t possibly believe your Heaven-Blasting Gang has the power to fight the experts of the Exotic Realm, can you?"
"With your paltry strength, forget the Black Hole Alien Race—even I could kill you right here and now!"
The moment he finished speaking.
BOOM!
Star Force exploded!
The surrounding terrain collapsed, and spiderweb cracks spread rapidly across the ground.
"Sigh. There you go again, losing your temper."
Seeing this, Qin Yang sighed. He was already prepared. He calmly took half a step back, activated Close Yet So Far, and instantly teleported a hundred meters away.
The next moment.
He was already outside the attack’s range.
"Alliance Leader, you should calm yourself. Don’t tell me I struck a nerve and you’re starting to lose control again?"
Qin Yang said coldly, "Since I came to this meeting with a hypocrite like you, did you really think I wouldn’t be on my guard?"
"What!?"
Hearing this, Meng Tianxuan froze. He stopped his pursuit of Qin Yang and, as if sensing something, turned to look around.
The next moment.
BOOM! BOOM!
Several terrifying auras erupted—from between the forest leaves, within the twilight, atop the city walls... Earth Venerable Realm Venerables. It was as if they were everywhere, and they had locked directly onto Meng Tianxuan’s position.
"You set up a trap for me. Did you really think I’d come alone?"
Qin Yang crossed his arms and spoke coolly, his expression perfectly composed. ’I’m about to break through to the Celestial Venerable Realm. Soon, I’ll be the strongest expert on Earth Star. I have no reason to fear Meng Tianxuan!’
"Fine. You’re ruthless!"
Seeing this, Meng Tianxuan’s eyes turned sinister as a thought crossed his mind.
’My major injuries have only just begun to heal. If I really push Qin Yang too far and he self-destructs in a final charge, I truly won’t be able to withstand it!’
’I have to leave!’
"You rejected me this time. You will definitely regret it in the future!"
After delivering this threat, he turned and his figure flashed, fleeing into the distance.
"Tsk, just a hypocrite." Qin Yang curled his lip. After watching the figure disappear, he too decisively left the city outskirts.
’Working with the Venerable Alliance is no different from asking a tiger for its skin!’
......
Not long after Qin Yang left, the roar of powerful engines tore through the night.
VROOOM...
The border patrol team from the Star Martial Police Bureau arrived, their powerful high beams cutting through the darkness as squadrons of armored patrol vehicles rolled in.
Before long, the clearing was completely surrounded by vehicles.
The Chief Commander slowly opened his car door and stepped out to command the scene. The night wind rustled through the pine forest, the sound of the rustling leaves like a surging sea.
But the place was deserted.
The evening wind was bleak, and there was no trace of anyone left.
Just then, an officer walked up, a radio in his hand.
"Commander, they’ve all left."
"Our brothers stationed to the southeast just confirmed it. The targets have finished their meeting and dispersed in two directions, to the south and east."
"Are there any signs of a fight nearby?"
The Chief Commander’s heart was in his throat. "What was that Star Force fluctuation just now?"
"Reporting, sir, the nearby Star Force fluctuations are all normal. According to reports from the surrounding posts, nothing unusual was detected."
The squad member reported in a low voice, "According to the men, the Sword God’s grand-disciple withdrew unscathed. The Venerable Alliance Leader, on the other hand, left in a very sorry state."
"Is that so?"
Hearing this, the Chief Commander seemed to realize something. He looked toward the large rock where Qin Yang had been sitting earlier, and his heart pounded with shock.
’The one who came to the meeting alone actually scared off the one who set the trap?!’
’Unbelievable!’
’What kind of topsy-turvy world is this!’
......
「Meanwhile.」
Several kilometers away, in Fuhai District.
Qin Yang drifted down beside a silent road. He strode forward under the moonlight, heading home while pondering what had just happened.
’Considering Meng Tianxuan’s personality...’
’I rejected him this time.’
’That bastard definitely won’t let this go!’
’From now on, I’ll have to be on my guard against him whenever I go out.’
As he was lost in thought, his pocket buzzed.
Qin Yang took out his phone and saw a new message.
[Xiaobai: Master, where did you run off to? What’s taking so long! When are you coming back? This Fairy is waiting at home to have dinner with you!]
Next to it was a cartoon sticker of a little white-furred fox.
’This silly fox is getting way too good at using the internet.’
Qin Yang couldn’t help but chuckle. Just as he was about to call her, his brow suddenly furrowed. He noticed several other unread messages on his phone.
[Li Zixuan: Senior Brother, are you okay over there? Do you need your Junior Sister to come over?]
And there were all sorts of other messages.
It wasn’t just Li Zixuan; Xia He and Li Qinghe had also sent messages.
Xia He asked about the situation and also sent over the locations of the Star Police’s defensive safe points, which were spread out along the border of Jianghai City’s outskirts, telling Qin Yang to run to one if he couldn’t win the fight.
Li Qinghe, on the other hand, had summoned the Li Family’s Array Master, telling Qin Yang to run for the city walls. Once the City Defense Array was activated, it could delay the enemy for a while.
It was a race against time!
In a single second, a Venerable Realm expert could teleport several kilometers away!
"..."
The night wind was cool. Qin Yang scrolled through the messages as he walked. Reading these worried greetings, a gentle warmth spread through his heart, and he felt deeply moved.
’After coming to this world, I didn’t have any family. But in the end, I found people. The world is so vast, but I’m not alone after all.’
’Having people to care about... isn’t necessarily a burden...’
Qin Yang stood tall under the starry sky, gazing up at the nine black holes. The vast heavens spread out above him, making his figure seem as insignificant as a mote of dust.
"One day, I must eliminate all these dangers!"
...
A moment later, it was nearly dawn.
Back in the courtyard, Qin Yang had Xiaobai lock the doors and windows. Then he went straight out into the yard, changed into a clean white robe, and sat down on the ground.
Under the cold moonlight, the Sun and Moon Cross the Sky.
The eastern sky began to brighten, showing the first light of dawn. Qin Yang sat cross-legged on the ground, as still and steady as an old monk in deep meditation, immersing himself in the Enlightenment Space.
Now, as his comprehension deepened, his True Dragon Dharma Aspect was nearing completion!
’It should be soon.’
Qin Yang continued to perfect his True Dragon Dharma Aspect.
In his mind’s eye, a Golden Dragon roamed freely, so vivid it seemed alive. It had the antlers of a deer, the talons of an eagle, and the scales of a fish. Its magnificent body pierced through clouds and mist. Its crimson-gold scales opened and closed with each breath, and its pupils burned like torches, exuding a majestic and grand aura.
’In less than ten days, I’ll be able to shatter the threshold of the Earth Venerable Realm and successfully break through to the Celestial Venerable Realm!’
’Once the True Dragon Dharma Aspect solidifies...’
’I will become one of the supreme beings in this world!’
’When that time comes, dealing with a minor figure like Meng Tianxuan will be a piece of cake, won’t it?’
