Chapter 277: The First Ape-Dragon Variation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Old Tie felt his heart trembling as he stood on the ground and watched the Primordial Diabolical Bull charge straight through the skies.
Right now, he was only aware of one thing: the massive Primordial Diabolical Bull’s charge.
Gonggong had smashed his head into the Buzhou Mountain! [1. According to Ancient Chinese Mythology, when the Chinese God of Water Gonggong lost to the Chinese God of Fire, he smashed his head against the Buzhou Mountain, a pillar that held up the sky, thus damaging it and causing the sky and earth to tilt, which resulted in great floods and suffering.]
Suddenly, Old Tie remembered an ancient story he had heard. The gallop of the Primordial Diabolical Bull contained a boundless power akin to smashing into the Buzhou Mountain.
In comparison to the Primordial Diabolical Bull, Luo Yunyang seemed like a speck of dust…
It was the same technique and the same strike, yet this time the might increased tenfold. If it was not for the attribute regulator, Luo Yunyang would only have one technique to use against the rampaging bull charging straight at him.
He would only have been able to run as far away as he could!
The ferocious bull rushed over in a frenzy. When it was several hundred meters away, Luo Yunyang unleashed the Mighty Sky Dragon’s Mark against the bull’s body.
The Mighty Sky Dragon was already incomparably powerful on its own. However, now that it had been converged into a mark and combined with the fusion of Luo Yunyang’s god-grade essence flames, the instant it struck, it also contained an immensely powerful, immeasurable blaze.
“Based on the power levels of these two, if any of these attacks were to strike Shen’du’s walls, the city’s defenses would be completely blown away!” Zhuge Yi speculated. He was one of the founding members of Shen’du’s defense system, so he knew it like the back of his hand.
A single strike would break down Shen’du’s defenses. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
Nobody said anything else afterwards. Most people were quietly watching the shaky footage on the screen. They saw how terrifying the exchange between the two strong ultimate powerhouses had gotten.
As a loud crash reverberated, it seemed like the sky was ripping apart. The rampaging bull’s body had collided with the Mighty Sky Dragon’s Mark.
Before it was attacked, the Primordial Diabolical Bull had still been thinking of charging forward.
The power contained in its blood was already aroused, so the bull definitely wouldn’t retreat.
However, that strike was so powerful that it seemed to turn the world on its head. Even the force of the Primordial Diabolical Bull’s Trampling Galaxy was stopped.
BOOM!
The bull’s body landed heavily on the earth like a comet crashing down.
The Primordial Diabolical Bull let out a savage cry. Its eyes were already blood-red, and its power appeared to increase.
In an instant, the black bull was a massive blood-red bull. Its eyes were blazing like the sun, while a crystal the size of a fist had appeared between them.
Luo Yunyang was stunned when he saw that crystal. He suddenly recalled an excerpt from the Heaven-Battling Ape-Dragon Chart.
“It’s using a Heavenly Source Stone!”
All the cultivation techniques in the Heaven-Battling Ape-Dragon Chart had annotations. One of the most important annotations was that if the search for essence flames and divine waters proved difficult, one could search for a Heavenly Source Stone.
A Heavenly Source Stone could reverse attributes, turn essence flames into divine waters and vice versa.
However, these weren’t the main functions of the Heavenly Source Stone. Its most important use was to increase a martialist’s vital energy absorption rate and purify blood. The use of a Heavenly Source Stone in combat could raise the power of blood multiple times.
Right now, the Primordial Diabolical Bull was probably using a Heavenly Source Stone to raise the power within its own blood.
When he thought about the harm the bull would do to the Heavenly Source Stone, Luo Yunyang was pissed. Such an important object was something that could only be discovered, not sought. The fact that the Primordial Diabolical Bull was wasting it in such a manner was simply unforgivable.
“Put down my Heavenly Source Stone!”
The Primordial Diabolical Bull froze. It had never expected to hear such a thing while it was using the Heavenly Source Stone it had been saving for so long.
This Heavenly Source Stone was clearly its possession. It was an object that had allowed the bull to ascend from an ordinary dire beast to its current state.
How the hell had it become Luo Yunyang’s?
The Primordial Diabolical Bull charged once again without any explanation. This time, blood-red stars appeared around its four giant blood-red hooves.
Meanwhile, a vague blood-red path appeared beneath its legs.
This strange path, which didn’t seem to exist, led all the way under Luo Yunyang’s feet.
When he saw the bull frantically charging at him, Luo Yunyang didn’t hesitate. He moved his palms the same way again and unleashed the Mighty Sky Dragon’s Mark.
However, when the Mighty Sky Dragon appeared behind Luo Yunyang, he didn’t immediately form a mark. Instead, he adjusted his attribute regulator quickly and converted all his Power Attribute Points into Moon Power.
Suddenly, a giant arm appeared on the formidable Mighty Sky Dragon. It was an incomparably dark arm that seemed to cover the sky.
Meanwhile, the body of the Mighty Sky Dragon changed greatly. Its coarse waist and body were like those of a huge ape.
This was the First Ape-Dragon Variation!
Given Luo Yunyang’s current cultivation level and the fact that only his Sun Power had reached god-grade boundaries, he shouldn’t have been able to unleash the First Ape-Dragon Variation.
However, thanks to his attribute regulator and the conversion of flame power into frigid ice, Luo Yunyang was able to unleash this simple Ape-Dragon Variation.
The transformation of the Mighty Sky Dragon into the Sky-Ripping Violent Ape allowed the power of the Violent Ape to increase tenfold in an instant.
This had been Luo Yunyang’s most important reason for coming to the Sky Scar Stronghold.
As he had waited for the Primordial Diabolical Bull’s impending arrival, Luo Yunyang had used the shadow of the Dragon’s Head and Ape’s Body to unleash the Ape-Dragon Variation against the Primordial Diabolical Bull.
By the time his palm had gotten close to the Primordial Diabolical Bull, it was about 30 meters wide. However, compared to the massive bull, it was still tiny.
Despite its size, when his palm struck, the Primordial Diabolical Bull was sent flying.
There was no resistance or sluggishness. Luo Yunyang had moved his hand as normally as if he was just swatting away a fly.
The bull fell to the ground once more and stared at Luo Yunyang fearfully, Although that strike hadn’t hurt his steel-like body much, it had made it feel extremely terrified.
If it continued to stay there, it would definitely die.
This was the only thought on the bull’s mind. Thus, after glaring at Luo Yunyang, it moved its legs and streaked towards the huge dimensional fracture like a black flash of lightning.
The Primordial Diabolical Bull had fled!
Luo Yunyang looked a little anxious as he watched the bull enter the dimensional fracture.
Although he didn’t give a damn about the fate of the Primordial Diabolical Bull, he certainly couldn’t abandon the stone.
“Give me back my Divine Stone!” As soon as the power of the Ape-Dragon Variation dissipated, Luo Yunyang chased after the Primordial Diabolical Bull.
