Chapter 582: Ten Days' Time

Still two azure dragons!

Only this time, the two azure dragons were much more robust than the previous three.

Clearly, the true dragon power contained within them was far stronger than before!

Facing these two azure dragons, Ye Yuan felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

"Flame-Moving True Dragon Kill!"

Ye Yuan's fists shot out like dragons emerging from the sea, and two red dragons roared forth as well!

This Flame-Moving True Dragon Kill was the final strike Ye Yuan had comprehended in the seventh layer!

This strike fused the true dragon power within Ye Yuan's body, enhancing the might of his Flame-Moving Kill several times over, reaching the level of gathering essence and condensing form!

In an instant, the two azure dragons and the two red dragons collided head-on!

"Boom!"

The aftermath of the collision seemed to shake the entire space.

In this aftermath, the black-clad man stood as immovable as a mountain, while Ye Yuan was pushed back a great distance before barely stabilizing himself.

Seizing this opportunity, Ye Yuan fully activated the "Lingzhe Nine Suns Divine Art" to recover his primal power.

He knew that his Flame-Moving True Dragon Kill was no match for the black-clad man; he had to seize every moment to restore his strength for the ensuing battle!

With Ye Yuan's current primal power intensity, combined with this Flame-Moving True Dragon Kill, instantly killing a late Soul Sea stage expert was well within his ability.

But before the black-clad man, it appeared utterly feeble!

The two red dragons were shattered by the two azure dragons after only a few breaths of resistance.

The two azure dragons, with undiminished momentum, charged toward Ye Yuan!

"Thousand Streams Flying Blossoms! Explode!"

Without a moment's hesitation, Ye Yuan had already prepared his second wave of attack!

From the very beginning, Ye Yuan had not expected to overpower the black-robed man's two palms.

On the seventh floor, he had already felt the power of this Coiling Dragon Heaven-Shattering Palm, and on this eighth floor, with only two palms, the difficulty would surely skyrocket!

Otherwise, how could someone as talented as Li Fantian have been defeated on this eighth floor?

This Flame Dragon True Kill was already one of his strongest trump cards, yet it couldn't even hold off the two azure dragons for a moment.

Since attacking head-on couldn't overcome these two azure dragons, he had no choice but to defend.

Thousand Streams Flying Blossoms wasn't strong offensively, but it was an excellent technique for defense.

After breaking through to the eighth level of the Sea of Qi, Ye Yuan's Yuan Power Sea had reached an astonishing forty zhang. An ordinary cultivator at the eighth level of the Sea of Qi would have at most a Yuan Power Sea of around fifteen zhang.

His Yuan Power density was now nearly three times that of an ordinary martial artist!

And the most ordinary Soul Sea powerhouse had a Yuan Power Sea of only a hundred zhang in radius, just over twice that of Ye Yuan.

One must know that when a Sea of Qi martial artist broke through to the Soul Sea, their Yuan Power Sea would expand tenfold!

Once Ye Yuan broke through to the Soul Sea, to what terrifying extent would his Yuan Power Sea expand?

With Ye Yuan's current strength, the quality and range of his Thousand Streams Flying Blossoms were incomparable to before.

Hundreds of millions of flying blossoms surged toward the two azure dragons, attaching themselves to their bodies and continuously undergoing minor explosions!

If it were an ordinary attack, it would have been completely neutralized by Ye Yuan's move long ago, never reaching him.

But these two azure dragons were too powerful!

They easily defeated Ye Yuan's two red dragons; how could these flying blossoms possibly stop them?

However, Thousand Stream Flying Blossoms was ultimately the martial technique Ye Yuan was most proficient in, and its formidable draining ability still played a significant role!

"Puff, puff, puff..."

The air was filled with the continuous sound of flying blossoms exploding, and the speed of the two azure dragons suddenly dropped, becoming sluggish.

Those countless flying blossoms were like a swamp, causing the two azure dragons to sink deeper and deeper.

Seeing this, the man in black couldn't help but laugh, "This kid really has an endless array of tricks. At such a young age, to have comprehended the Supreme True Intent to this extent is truly remarkable! If it were a complete Supreme True Intent, these two palms alone might not be able to do anything to him. But if it's only at this level, it's still not enough!"

Sure enough, the two azure dragons were not dragged down by Thousand Stream Flying Blossoms; instead, they broke through all obstacles and charged toward Ye Yuan!

Ye Yuan's expression turned serious as he took out the Xuan Ying Sword and assumed the starting stance of Ten Thousand Rain Sword Edge.

"Ten Thousand Rain Sword Edge!"

Thousand Stream Flying Blossoms had bought time for the execution of Ten Thousand Rain Sword Edge, which was also Ye Yuan's last trump card!

This time, Ye Yuan held nothing back, mobilizing all the remaining yuan power in his body and pouring it all into Ten Thousand Rain Sword Edge at once!

The two azure dragons, carrying a large number of flying blossoms, charged toward Ye Yuan.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

"Pfft!"

Ye Yuan's body flew out like a kite with a broken string.

And the two azure dragons finally dissipated into smoke!

Under this strike, Ye Yuan was finally injured.

But after struggling, he finally managed to stand up.

Ye Yuan's internal organs had suffered a violent impact, and his injuries were not light.

The man in black said calmly, "You have not disappointed me! I think you must have guessed that on this ninth floor, I will only strike once—the ultimate strike of the Coiling Dragon Heaven-Shattering Palm! The Heavenly Sovereign Tower will heal your injuries. You have ten days to go into seclusion here, and perhaps you will gain some insights! After ten days, whether you can become the first genius in ten thousand years to pass all nine floors depends on you!"

With these words, the man in black turned and left without looking back.

Just then, a beam of light shone down from the air, enveloping Ye Yuan.

This beam of light actually had a healing effect. Ye Yuan set aside his chaotic thoughts, sat cross-legged in meditation, and focused on recovering from his injuries.

In less than half an hour, Ye Yuan's injuries were completely healed.

"The man in black said I have ten days, but the healing only took an hour? He told me to go into seclusion for these ten days—what insights can I gain in ten days? But since he said it, it shouldn't be nonsense, right? On this eighth floor, I almost exhausted all my strength. With my current power, even using the nameless energy, it's impossible to pass the ninth floor!"

Once his injuries healed, Ye Yuan began to ponder.

The man in black's words seemed to carry deep meaning. Ten days was too short; it was simply impossible to make a leap in strength.

But with his current strength, Ye Yuan probably couldn't pass the ninth floor at all.

The ultimate strike of the Coiling Dragon Heaven-Shattering Palm—Ye Yuan shuddered just thinking about it.

Unless his strength broke through to the Soul Sea realm, he couldn't possibly withstand this so-called ultimate strike.

But even if Ye Yuan broke through to the Soul Sea realm, the man in black would certainly execute this technique at the Soul Sea realm, and the outcome would still be the same.

In essence, the guardian of the Heavenly Sovereign Tower always suppressed his cultivation to a level similar to the challenger's, precisely to test the challenger's talent and strength.

Cultivation level—that was too easy for geniuses, offering no challenge at all.

But comprehension of artistic conception was different; it could not be achieved overnight.

"Ten days... what exactly can I use them for?" Ye Yuan couldn't help but ponder.
