Dragon Prince Yuan - Chapter 729

Chapter 729

Boom! 

Genesis Qi surged around Zhou Yuan’s body as a Divine Dwelling halo appeared behind him . At that moment, he looked like a maniac whose eyes were filled with viciousness .

As the Heavenly Yuan Brush flashed into his hand, the snowy-white brush tip instantly turned a pitch-black .  

Om!

The Heavenly Yuan Brush transformed to multiple shadows as boundless Genesis Qi burst out from Zhou Yuan’s Divine Dwelling without reservation, bathing his body in a blaze of light .

Zhou Yuan had currently squeezed out every drop of strength he possessed .

However, the hall master of the Heavenly Sacred Hall did not even turn around . His lips curved into a mocking smile as he shook his head, “Who would have thought that even a desperate ant would bite?” 

He extended his fingers and lightly pushed it towards the approaching brush .

Clang!    

The sharp tip of the brush, that Zhou Yuan had focused all of his power into, smashed into the  Heavenly Sacred Hall master’s finger . At the moment of impact, it seemed as if the brush had struck a piece of million year cold steel .  

All of Zhou Yuan’s power seemed to disappear into a bottomless black hole .  

Om!    

The Heavenly Sacred Hall Master flicked his finger, striking the tip of the brush .  

The brush tip unravelled, turning into countless brush hairs as an indescribable force swept towards Zhou Yuan like a mountainous wave .   

Zhou Yuan's hand instantly ruptured, causing blood to spurt out .

The Heavenly Yuan Brush also left the grip of his hand .     

Sensing danger, the Divine Dwelling halo flashed in front of Zhou Yuan but was only able to endure for a few seconds before shattering under the terrifying force .  

Urgh!    

A mouthful of blood was vomited from Zhou Yuan’s mouth . He was blasted away like a cannonball, violently tumbling down many stone steps before he finally managed to steady himself .

Blood flowed down Zhou Yuan’s entire body, his flesh torn open and skin ripped in many places . If not for his extraordinarily strong body, he would most likely have been torn apart by the overwhelming force .

Even so, he was in an extremely sorry state .

It had merely been the briefest of contacts, but Zhou Yuan had already been utterly defeated . The tremendous difference in strength between them was clear as day .

Zhou Yuan’s hair was disheveled . Blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth as a bitter smile curved his lips .  Was this the power of the Nascent Source stage? As expected, it's far stronger than the Divine Dwelling stage .

The Heavenly Sacred Hall master slowly turned around, indifferently studying Zhou Yuan as he remarked, “I am indeed surprised by your courage, but unfortunately, courage alone can’t change anything . ”     

He extended his finger again as frightening Genesis Qi gathered at its tip, causing the surrounding space to crack .  

Roar!

However,  an enraged roar suddenly thundered just as Heavenly Sacred Hall master was about to attack again and a giant golden silhouette appeared in the air above a split second later .

It was Tuntun in its combat form .  

With a deafening roar, it swung its claws several times, causing space to quake violently .  

The Heavenly Sacred Hall master narrowed his eyes as his other hand penetrated through space and grabbed at Tuntun’s throat . Tuntun retaliated with its claws, leaving small scratches on his hand .   

“Huh?” The hall master of the Heavenly Sacred Hall gasped . He could sense that Tuntun was only at the Divine Dwelling stage but was able to leave a small scratch on his body . Although the scratch was insignificant, the fact that it could wound him was more than enough evidence of its extraordinary power .  

“This will be a good gatekeeper . ” The hall master of the Heavenly Sacred Hall smiled and shook his hand, sending Tuntun hurtling into the distance .    

Om!    

Space shuddered the moment he tossed Tuntun . A beam of golden light silently shot over, aimed directly at the space between the hall master’s brows .   

He immediately detected the beam of golden light and narrowed his eyes . A look of bewilderment flickering in the depths of his eyes, because he could sense a mysterious energy fluctuation around the golden light .  

For some reason, that fluctuation made even his heart palpitate .  

Swoosh!   

The beam of golden light shot over .

The hall master pinched the beam of light with two fingers and watched the golden light tremble between his fingertips . Upon closer inspection, he found that it resembled a drop of blood .  

His face was devoid of expression as Genesis Qi gushed out from fingers, disintegrating the light beam into nothingness .  

His hand moved to feel the space between his brows where there was a small hole had formed .   

“Interesting . ”    

The hall master’s eyes darkened . He turned to the bottom of the stone steps where he saw a beautiful and slender girl coldly staring at him .  

“There clearly weren't any Genesis Qi fluctuations, but it was quite dangerous . . . ” His eyes had turned bitingly cold . The maiden before him was clearly not very powerful, but having cultivated for so many years, his intuition made him feel a trace of unknown fear in the depths of his heart .  

“How strange . . . .    

“But never mind . . . . since you are the most dangerous one here, let's get rid of you first . ”

He shook his head . With a snap of his fingers, majestic Genesis Qi gathered into a blade of Genesis Qi that shook and cracked the surrounding space .  

Om!    

The Genesis Qi blade vibrated as it disappeared from the spot, reappearing right in front of Yaoyao .  

The reflection of the light blade rapidly enlarged in Yaoyao’s eyes as she clenched her teeth . It was the first time she had encountered such a powerful enemy .  

Given her current state, it would be really hard to cope with such an attack .

Do . . . I really have to take that final step?   

Hesitation flickered in Yaoyao’s eyes .

However, just when the light blade was about to hit her, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her like a towering mountain .

It was Zhou Yuan!    

Chi!    

While Yaoyao stood stunned, the light blade pierced Zhou Yuan’s body . The blade plunged through his chest, causing blood to spurt everywhere .   

The spray of blood stained her beautiful cheeks while she dazedly stood there .

Her lips trembled as she looked at Zhou Yuan, who was facing her while using his back to shield her from the light blade .  

Zhou Yuan peered down at the light blade that punctured his chest, before he wiped the blood at the corner of his lips . He displayed a bitter smile as he gazed at the maiden before him, “I’m really sorry to drag you into this dangerous situation .

“I’ve always known that you are stronger than me . . .

“But I promised master Cang Yuan that if the day comes where I cannot stop others from hurting you, then at very least . . . . I’ll make sure they’ll have to step over my dead body first . ”

Yaoyao’s eyes seemed to redden a little .

Zhou Yuan endured the sharp pain from his chest as he continued in a hoarse voice, “You must think I’m too unsightly . I know…that I'm too weak . ”

Yaoyao shook her head .   

Roar!    

Behind them, Tuntun let out an enraged roar, but Heavenly Sacred Hall master clapped his hands together, creating a gigantic Genesis Qi hand that swatted downwards to suppress Tuntun .  

He peered down at Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao as he chuckled, “What a touching scene .

“Well, I shall be kind today and let both of you die together . ”   

He waved his robe and countless Genesis Qi light blades formed in front of him .    

Om!    

The blades pierced the void and headed straight for the two figures below .    

Sensing the power of destruction behind him, Zhou Yuan gave a wry smile as he stretched out his trembling arms to shield Yaoyao . This was the only thing he could do .

Yaoyao caressed Zhou Yuan’s blood-stained face with her ice-cold hands as a glistening tear drop rolled down her cheeks from her eyelash .

“Zhou Yuan, you are a hero in my heart . . . ”  

She stood on her tiptoes and gently kissed him on the lips under his widening eyes .

The cold as jade sensation made Zhou Yuan’s heart quiver .   

“Zhou Yuan . . . . thank you for these past few years . ”  

A faint noise sounded at this moment .

Zhou Yuan was horrified as he watched the mysterious light rune between Yaoyao’s brows gradually begin to crack .

Her seal was being broken .
