My Crazy Upgrade System-Chapter 68 - 67: Dragon God Technique

"That’s certainly some wicked trickery, but it’s completely useless against me, kid!"

Qing Tianlong sneered and waved the Blood Evil Banner in his hand. An endless wave of Evil Qi surged forth again, enveloping them. Fortunately, the Merak Palace disciples with lower cultivation levels had already evacuated the area; otherwise, they surely would have been affected by the Blood Evil Banner.

As soon as they were enveloped by the Blood Evil Banner, they felt a killing intent surge up from deep within them. The effect was most pronounced on the three elders. Their cultivation was relatively low, and a bloody glint immediately appeared in their eyes as their killing intent flared.

Now, when they looked around, they were filled with the urge to kill, no matter who they saw!

This was the most terrifying aspect of the Blood Evil Banner—its ability to incite them to kill one another. Those with stronger willpower could resist this Blood Evil Qi, but their minds would still be affected to some degree, impacting their combat performance.

"Is that so? In that case, I’d like to see you handle this!"

A cold glint flashed in Yi Tianyun’s eyes, and the blood in his veins began to boil as he prepared to unleash his full power. Just then, Shi Xueyun drifted over and landed beside him. A faint, cold aura enveloped him, shielding him completely from the Evil Qi.

"Tianyun, leave him to me. Go help the others."

Shi Xueyun’s gaze was icy. Facing such a formidable enemy, she was prepared to use everything she had.

"Aunt, leave him to me. I can do it." Yi Tianyun knew why Shi Xueyun had come over—she didn’t want him to fight, afraid he would get hurt.

"His cultivation level is very high. He won’t be easy to defeat. Let me..."

Before Shi Xueyun could finish, Yi Tianyun grabbed her slender arm and gently pulled her into his embrace.

"Aunt, believe in me... I’m no longer the boy who always needed your protection. I’m a man now, one who can protect you... This time, it’s my turn to protect you and all of Merak Palace!" Yi Tianyun’s eyes burned with unshakable determination.

Shi Xueyun froze, her beautiful eyes reflecting Yi Tianyun’s resolute face. Without her realizing it, the little boy she had always cared for had grown into a mature man. The rims of her eyes reddened as she parted her lips to speak. "I’ll be waiting for you..."

Yi Tianyun smiled and nodded. The next moment, he turned, replacing the reflection of his face in her eyes with that of his broad shoulders—shoulders that seemed capable of bearing any responsibility, any burden.

Shi Xueyun swiftly retreated, rejoining the three elders to hold back the frenzied Cultivators and prevent them from storming the inner grounds of Merak Palace.

"Palace Master, are you sure about letting him go alone?" The First Elder knew Yi Tianyun’s cultivation wasn’t weak, but she also knew there was still a significant gap between him and the terrifying Qing Tianlong.

"We have to trust him..." Shi Xueyun said softly. At this moment, her faith in Yi Tianyun was all she had.

Qingyun Cheng watched Yi Tianyun approach, a look of pity on his face. "So arrogant, walking over here all by yourself. Do you really think you’re some kind of hero? Without those wicked Martial Arts of yours, you’re nothing! Ancestor, kill him!"

Qing Tianlong sneered. "Brat, you’ve killed so many of my sect’s elders. Today, you and the entire Merak Palace will be buried along with them!"

The elders and deacons of the Divine Forging Sect were almost all dead. The only ones left were disciples of little value, which was why he was controlling them and sending them to their deaths. ’After all, keeping them around is useless. They’re just a bunch of trash!’

"Is that so? I’d like to see you try!"

"Dragon God Technique, activate!"

Yi Tianyun threw his head back and let out a long roar. A dragon’s cry erupted from his throat as the Bloodline within him was instantly awakened. It was as if a Giant Dragon had taken form inside him, rampaging without end!

The next moment, golden Dragon Scales began to erupt from his skin. In the blink of an eye, his entire body was covered in a thick layer of scales. His frame expanded, growing larger and tougher.

A terrifying power radiated from his powerful Physique. Standing there, he was like a veritable Giant Dragon! Though he was merely covered in a layer of Dragon Scales, to everyone watching, it was as if a true Giant Dragon stood before them!

As he transformed, he could feel his Combat Power skyrocketing.

Sixty-five thousand!

Seventy thousand!

Seventy-five thousand!

Eighty thousand!

In an instant, his Combat Power matched Qing Tianlong’s. A staggering Dragon’s Might radiated from his body, giving him an air of unparalleled dominance!

For a moment, the women behind him were dumbfounded. ’Yi Tianyun can transform? Is that... the Physique of the Dragon Race?’ The power erupting from him was unprecedented.

"This is Tianyun’s power..." Shi Xueyun whispered, her lips parted in shock. She could feel its terrifying might, a power that was now even greater than her own.

He truly had become the man who could protect her, no longer the boy who had always needed her protection.

"The Dragon Race?" Even Qing Tianlong was shaken. Just because ’dragon’ was in his name didn’t mean he actually had Dragon Blood in his veins.

Once his transformation was complete, a cold glint flashed in Yi Tianyun’s eyes. He stomped hard on the ground—BOOM!—and shot toward Qing Tianlong like a living shockwave.

He wielded no other weapon, relying only on the Frost Fists on his hands as he launched a vicious attack at Qing Tianlong!

"Die!"

Qing Tianlong’s expression changed at the sight. He rapidly swung the Blood Evil Banner, and with each wave, countless blood-red skulls howled through the air toward Yi Tianyun, carried on a sinister wind. The bloodthirsty skulls swarmed him, trying to devour him until nothing remained.

"Dragon God Technique, First Form: Dragon Soul Flash!"

In that instant, the phantom of a Giant Dragon materialized around Yi Tianyun. The Qi Force he generated as he charged coalesced into a Dragon Soul that enveloped his body.

He then charged head-on into the swarm of blood-red skulls. The Dragon Soul around him raised a massive Dragon Claw and tore forward.

RIIIP—

With a force powerful enough to seemingly tear space itself, the claw ripped forward, easily annihilating the pouncing skulls. He burst through their ranks effortlessly. The skulls were utterly useless; the moment they drew near the Dragon Soul, its imperious Dragon’s Might shattered them into dust.

The imperious might of a dragon would not be defiled!

In the blink of an eye, Yi Tianyun was in front of Qing Tianlong. He swung his heavy fist, aiming to smash it right into his foe.

"This punch is for my aunt!"

He bellowed, the sound a mix of a dragon’s cry and a tiger’s roar that shot toward the heavens. The fist he threw was more like a giant Dragon Claw, slashing forward viciously.

’This is bad!’

Qing Tianlong’s expression darkened, and he swiftly raised the Blood Evil Banner to block the attack. Though it was a banner, it could also be used for defense. In his desperation, he had no choice but to use it to block with all his might.

BOOM!

Struck by the terrifying Dragon Claw, Qing Tianlong was sent flying backward. He was thrown back several dozen meters before he barely managed to stop himself. However, several deep gashes now marred the surface of the Blood Evil Banner in his hand.

Such terrifying, immense power!
