Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

Chapter 302: Kill the Laws, Kill Heaven and Earth, Kill All Living Beings

The Hidden Dragon Shackles: a Dragon of Sin.

Its Bloodline Power continually evolved, forming terrifying bolts of crimson Thunder Tribulation Power.

CRACKLE—

A bolt of Thunder Tribulation Power struck down. Its Power of Destruction targeted not only his physical body but also his Soul!

It was as if he was suffering a thousand tortures at once. Ye Tianling felt as though his entire body had been pierced by terrifyingly sharp, poisoned needles. The pain was truly staggering.

’This is just the beginning, and it’s already this vicious? The Hidden Dragon Shackles are truly something else!’

’But so what? How could I, Ye Tianling, be broken by these mere Hidden Dragon Shackles?!’

Ye Tianling snorted, abandoned his defenses, and roared, "Come on! Hit me with something harder!"

Ye Tianling’s defiance seemed to violently provoke the crimson Sinful Dragon Dao Marks in this land.

RUMBLE—

One after another, terrifying crimson tribulation dragons slammed down, viciously crushing Ye Tianling’s flesh, bones, mind, and Soul.

Although Ye Tianling was indeed suffering a terrifyingly destructive assault—as if he were about to sink into an endless crimson world and transform into an eternal Demon—he didn’t.

’In this world, besides them, no one and nothing can make me, Ye Tianling, yield or force me into Entering Demon! Hidden Dragon Shackles... is this all you’ve got?!’

Ye Tianling endured the relentless assault of the Hidden Dragon Shackles, remaining calm and composed amidst the excruciating pain.

CRACKLE... CRACKLE...

His will, his Strong Heart, and his immense fortitude were being tempered even further.

Ever since his timid, withdrawn nature—a result of losing his will—had been reignited by Little Dragon Girl’s heart’s blood, his willpower had only grown stronger.

Within the Hidden Dragon Shackles, it was as if Ye Tianling’s will was undergoing a Nirvana Rebirth, bringing about a brand-new transformation.

This transformation brought about a significant increase in Ye Tianling’s power.

BOOM—

Amidst the torment, Ye Tianling gradually began to ignore the horrific pain afflicting his body, mind, and even his Soul, slowly entering a state of Harmonization Dao.

’The Laws of this world suppress me, Heaven and Earth deceive me, and the people humiliate me. Therefore, I can only temper my heart, harden my will, and kill! Kill! KILL! Kill the Laws! Kill Heaven and Earth! Kill all living things!’

Ye Tianling murmured, his voice growing steadily louder and clearer.

BOOM—

His dormant Dragon Soul awakened and abruptly shot forth.

The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon soared into the sky, roaring into the Void to battle the endless crimson Tribulation Thunder.

The power of the Hidden Dragon Shackles seemed to have suddenly formed an incomparably terrifying Dao.

"Hidden Dragon Shackles, you think you’re so great? Bring it on!"

Ye Tianling’s eyes flashed like lightning as he shot out two terrifying blasts of spiritual will!

The two beams of Divine Radiance swept out, surging toward the Hidden Dragon Shackles in the Void.

BOOM—

The Hidden Dragon Shackles manifested a thunderous Blood Dragon, which roared and charged straight for the spot between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows!

Ye Tianling made no move to defend himself.

’They both have the Hidden Dragon Shackles and the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden... I’ll test your power for myself. Then, I will refine you, comprehend you, and control you!’

RUMBLE—

Fueled by his terrifying will, Ye Tianling allowed the Hidden Dragon Shackles to pierce the spot between his eyebrows and charge toward his Space-Time Soul-locking Tower.

’You’re looking to die? In that case, I’ll grant your wish!’

The Hidden Dragon Shackles possessed a will of their own, so they could understand his words.

However, they clearly had no intention of listening.

But when that evil will invaded his Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, Ye Tianling didn’t hesitate. He gathered his Soul Sword, condensed his Supreme Will, transformed himself into a blade, and unleashed the Celestial Evil Heaven-Breaking Annihilation Dao!

That’s right—he was using his will to manifest the Killing Dao!

Before this moment, Ye Tianling had never even conceived of such an attack.

But when he discovered his will could become incomparably powerful, he realized his attacks no longer needed a fixed form.

’As long as I have unyielding conviction, a Strong Heart, and a Supreme Will, why shouldn’t I be able to use the Killing Dao of the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword?’

PFFT—

That blast of will, carrying an even more terrifying Power of Destruction, ruthlessly struck the vile Sinful Dragon manifested by the Hidden Dragon Shackles.

SPURT—

The Sinful Dragon thrashed and roared in a frenzy, struggling violently like a locust dropped into a pan of boiling oil, flailing for its life.

"Come on! Bring me another!"

With his Supreme Will, Ye Tianling crushed the life out of the Sinful Dragon. He then dropped his defenses once more, waiting for the endless Hidden Dragon Shackles of Heaven and Earth to manifest more dragons of sin to ambush and kill him.

Meanwhile, the Hidden Dragon Power from the refined, vile Sinful Dragon transformed completely into crimson Energy that flowed directly into the spot between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows.

BZZZZ—

The crimson Energy, like that of a pure Origin, became incomparably powerful and refined.

Ye Tianling channeled a single wisp of it into his physical body, and his Realm immediately reached Perfection, abruptly breaking through from the First Heaven of Sword Soul to the Sword Soul Second Heaven Realm!

Ye Tianling was neither surprised nor shocked. He unhesitatingly sent the remaining ninety-nine percent of the Energy into his Space-Time Soul-locking Tower.

"Little Dragon Girl, I’ve already performed Refinement on this Sinful Dragon, so don’t worry. Absorb it! I know this Energy is useful to you."

"No! You should hurry up and raise your Realm!"

Little Dragon Girl’s voice reverted to its milky, childlike tone. She yawned, and though she didn’t manifest a physical form, she projected an aura of lazy charm and grace.

And she made sure Ye Tianling was able to sense it all.

’A four- or five-year-old girl, and she’s already learned the art of Charm.’

"If you don’t listen, you’ll get a spanking. Do as I say!"

Ye Tianling said proudly, his tone harsh and not the least bit polite.

"Hmph, so domineering... but hehe, that’s how it should be! You have to defeat the Hidden Dragon Shackles! There’s a surprise waiting for you when you do!"

Little Dragon Girl giggled.

Seeing Ye Tianling act so domineeringly even within the Hidden Dragon Shackles, once again defying the heavens and displaying his peerless Talent, made Little Dragon Girl incredibly happy.

’See, Father? What can some pathetic Hidden Dragon Shackles do to him?’

’Hmph, this is only the beginning. He’s so reckless, even performing Refinement on the power of the Hidden Dragon Shackles and absorbing it into his body? He’ll be crying his eyes out when that power erupts!’

Outside, as Ji Tianxie watched Ye Tianling ferociously perform Refinement on the Hidden Dragon Shackles like a madman, the muscles in his face couldn’t help but twitch several times.

He responded with a cold snort, then put on an expression as if he were waiting to watch a good show.

’Something’s not right... I took away so many of his Talents, so where did he get such a powerful will? His physical body is clearly at its limit, his Soul is incredibly weak, and without his various special physiques, he should be practically useless!

He was so timid and submissive before, so how did he suddenly become so defiant?

Yueqi’s heart’s blood does have some restorative properties, but the effect shouldn’t be *this* good!

How strange... He truly is the peerless genius with a transcendent Life Chart, the one who could use my Demon Heart Sword Body until not a single shred of Energy remained, completely depleting it!’

’Yes, he’s the one!’

’Kid, I’m betting everything on you. I only took your Abilities because your physical body was too weak to bear them. It would have crumbled into dust. Once you’re stronger, I’ll give them back to you!

I’m provoking you like this just to get you to enter the Hidden Dragon Shackles and temper yourself!

The Hidden Dragon Shackles are the root cause of the chaos in the Celestial Demon Blood Domain. If you can overcome them now, the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden will be no problem for you in the future!’

’If you can also comprehend the true nature of the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden, then you’ll have at least a ninety percent chance of undoing it!’

’Kid, you’re great in every way, except you don’t understand scheming and plotting. That’s a flaw that will make you suffer greatly! Ah, well. I’ve spent my whole life scheming, and in the end... I’ll just overlook this weakness of yours! You were right: only the weak resort to cunning schemes. The strong simply crush all opposition!

And since I’ve let my daughter follow you and allowed you to use my Bloodline and Demon Heart Sword Body, why would I ever truly make things difficult for you?

Here in this Hidden Dragon Demon Cave... you’d better not disappoint me!’

Ji Tianxie gazed deeply at the projection of the scene inside the Blood Demon Cave, his eyes filled with boundless, fatherly affection.
