Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

Clang! The golden shield and the vajra ¹ collided with each other.

The nature essence and golden light shot outward, shattering the dark clouds in the sky and splitting them.

It had been raining for half a day, but it now stopped suddenly, and the sky turned cloudy.

The dragon cultivators before the library looked up at the sky with widened eyes.

In the space between Hao Ren and Taiyi Cave Master, the vajra and the golden shield pushed against each other. The golden shield spun with a small dent on its surface, but it wasn’t broken. Instead, golden material revealed beneath the dent as if the dark matter on top was only a layer of dirt.

In contrast, the vajra’s sharp tip was pushed in a little!

“How… is this possible?” Taiyi Cave Master widened his eyes in disbelief.

After all, the Heaven-Reaching Shield was half a level lower than the Demon-Conquering Vajra before. When these two dharma treasures were together, the Heaven-Reaching Shield had never dared to show any disobedience to the Demon-Conquering Vajra!

Taiyi Cave Master didn’t know that the golden shield had passed another Heavenly Tribulation in the Demon Sea with abundant nature essence around Moon Festival when the star energy was the strongest, which made it one level higher than ordinary supreme spiritual treasures!

According to the usual rules about dharma treasures, the offensive dharma treasures were indeed stronger than the defensive dharma treasures. However, the golden shield wasn’t on the same level as the vajra anymore!

It was like stabbing the iron shield with a wooden spear; the latter could never pierce the former!

The golden shield didn’t reveal its true strength at the beginning, so the vajra had thought that the golden shield was still inferior to it. However, when it attacked, it realized that the golden shield had already surpassed it!

Bang! The golden shield released a surge of more violent nature essence.

The King Kong vajra, also a supreme spiritual treasure, was knocked away off!

“Wow!”

The composed dragon kings and elders exclaimed like kids after seeing this!

“The Fuma of the East Ocean Dragon Clan is so powerful!” they thought to themselves.

In fact, it was the golden shield that held the great power, not Hao Ren. However, if the golden shield hadn’t stayed with Hao Ren, it wouldn’t have had the chance to reach the realm of Nature Celestial Treasure.

After all, Hao Ren had given it a hand in the Heavenly Tribulation.

Boom! Boom!

The golden shield released thousands of smaller shields!

The sky was full of flashing golden lights!

For the ordinary students, it looked like sunshine after the rain. No one knew that it didn’t come from the sun but Hao Ren’s dharma treasure!

Sitting by the lake, Su Han rubbed her chest in pain and looked up at Hao Ren in the high sky in surprise.

The vajra was obviously a supreme spiritual treasure, and even her longsword was no match for it.

“What kind of dharma treasure does Hao Ren have that it can even overpower this vajra?” she thought.

Boom!

Thousands of smaller shields reflected overwhelming golden lights!

Taiyi Cave Master gritted his teeth, and his grey jacket puffed up, releasing eight dancing golden dragons from his body!

“Heavenly Dragon Scroll!” a dragon cultivator yelled.

It was the highest-level technique of the metal-elemental dragons, allowing the practitioner to release eight golden energy dragons which were made from nature essence.

The vajra couldn’t block the overwhelming golden lights since it excelled in offense and not defense! It was about to flee when the golden shield shot toward it suddenly.

Swoosh! As a supreme spiritual treasure, the vajra flew more than 10,000 meters in the blink of an eye!

The golden shield chased after it tightly, determined to show the vajra who was the boss!

A golden light beam as thick as a mountain shot toward the vajra.

Desperate, the vajra expanded to the size of a mountain.

Bang! The vajra was instantly shattered! The huge vajra that was as big as a mountain was pierced by the nature essence released from the golden shield before shattering into pieces.

In the blink of an eye, the golden shield flew to the spot where the vajra exploded and sucked in the treasure soul of the vajra!

It was how the supreme spiritual treasures fought – battling to death! Even if the vajra surrendered, the golden shield probably wouldn’t accept it!

Since the vajra fled, the golden shield wasn’t going to show any mercy!

The battle happened in an instant. Since the golden shield hadn’t recovered fully from its elevation of realm several days ago, this battle consumed all of its limited nature essence, and it fell toward the lake while still spinning.

It needed some time to absorb the vajra’s treasure soul. Little White who had been guarding Su Han by the lake jumped up suddenly and caught the golden shield in its jaws before placing it on the grass.

In the high sky, Taiyi Cave Master who had released eight dancing dragons was red with fury when he saw that his vajra was defeated and shattered!

He had two supreme spiritual treasures; Hao Ren took one, and the other was shattered by the supreme spiritual treasure that Hao Ren had taken from him! This infuriated Taiyi Cave Master!

The golden nature essence all over his body suddenly turned into golden flames which then changed into white flames!

The metal, wood, water, fire, and earth elements had different properties, and the peak stage of metal-elemental cultivation was white! Taiyi Cave Master had reached a realm high enough to release true flames instead of lights alone.

Seeing the white flames instead of simple light emitting from Taiyi Cave Master, the dragon cultivators outside the library knew that this metal-elemental dragon cultivator had reached the highest realm of his cultivation technique!

Boom! The eight dancing dragons connected from head to tail and formed a circle in front of Taiyi Cave Master, spinning with whistling sounds.

After cultivating the Heavenly Dragon Scroll, the ultimate metal-elemental technique, to the peak stage, a cultivator could release eight natal dragons which represented Qian, Kun, Xun, Dui, Gen, Zhen, Li, and Kan. They were in sync with the Heavenly Dao!

Taiyi Cave Master had reached peak Qian-level hundreds of years ago and was an important figure in the Elders Council of the metal-elemental dragon clan.

His lowest-leveled disciples who left his cave were at least at Qian-level, and his disciples included peak Qian-level cultivators such as Wang Shitong.

It meant that even though Taiyi Cave Master hadn’t reached the Heavenly Dragon Realm, his power overshadowed the others, and he wasn’t afraid of the Dragon God Shrine!

Furious, he used the Heavenly Dragon Scroll and released eight true dragons which represented his full force!

“Not good!” Seeing the eight dragons connecting from head to tail in the sky, Zhao Guang’s expression changed instantly.

He was about to transform into his dragon form and block the attack for Hao Ren when Taiyi Cave Master attacked with a dark face.

The eight dragons that had flashing golden lights around them crashed toward Hao Ren in the form of Eight-Trigram!

Bang! Hao Ren’s 1,280 sword energies formed a sword array and tried to block the attack.

However, these sword energies were melted the moment they went near the energy dragons!

The energy sphere created by the golden boat was shattered instantly, and the eight dragons burned a red circle in Hao Ren’s chest, sending him flying for thousands of meters!

“Hand over the items!” Furious, Taiyi Cave Master flew over in a white light and reached out his right hand to grab Hao Ren.

Swoosh! A sharp whistling sound came from the distant void.

With four ridges and a sharp tip… it was the Black Dragon Spike!
