The silver crescent moon slashed open the dragon scales on the dragon's body. Streaks of moonlight entered the dragon's body and began to constantly damage its meridians. The moment the moonlight entered Long Teng's body, a green light burst out from the triple-clawed green dragon shaped wind blade in between Long Teng's eyebrows. It swam up in an instant, swimming into the Soaring Dragon's body, continuously swallowing the moonlight that entered the Soaring Dragon's body, swimming to the center of the Soaring Dragon's heart, continuously circling and swimming around the heart, swallowing the moonlight that was about to destroy the Soaring Dragon's heart, protecting the heart. Just like a gate god, it constantly swallowed the heart of the protector Long Teng, preventing any harm to the heart. The speed of the sword and dragon core in his dantian had reached a limit. It was also continuously absorbing the moonlight in Long Teng's body. Although the highly concentrated moonlight that was entering into the body of the Soaring Dragon kept damaging the meridians in the body of the Soaring Dragon, the silver sword aura in the body continued to heal the meridians, causing the meridians to be tougher and tougher. At the same time, streams of thick green dragon qi continued to shoot out from the Soaring Dragon Pill and swim towards the meridians in all directions, continuously devouring the condensed moonlight which was destroying one's meridians. As the green dragon aura continued to devour the moonlight, the dragon aura continued to grow in size and the speed at which it devoured the moonlight became faster and faster. The Illusionary Sword and Dragon Core in the Soaring Dragon's Dantian rotated faster and faster. The two forms that were standing in front of each other were about to collapse.

The green light on the surface of Long Teng's body intensified, shooting in all directions. Just like last time, he was once again surrounded by the green light, because the dragon core and the sword in his body were revolving at an extremely fast speed. The surrounding spiritual energy and moonlight that was like a jade plate's bright full moon were constantly flowing towards Long Teng, and immediately, Long Teng was surrounded by the green light. As time passed, the cyan color became thicker and thicker. The cyan gas surrounding the Soaring Dragon had reached a strong limit and was unable to absorb any more energy or moonlight. From the surface, Soaring Dragon looked very natural and at ease. But the Soaring Dragon in the green was suffering. The meridians in his body constantly ruptured. Long Teng broke out in a cold sweat.

Because of the sudden increase in speed of the sword and the dragon core in his dantian, the spiritual Qi and the essence of the moon around him suddenly increased, and he hadn't completely absorbed the moonlight in his body yet. Immediately, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and the Moon's essence filled Long Teng's body. His originally smooth meridians were suddenly filled with the spiritual energy and the essence of the moon. Moreover, it continuously increased and continuously compressed. The originally repaired meridians were damaged once again, and this time, the damage was even more complete. It was broken by the essence of the world. The sword aura that was repairing his meridians immediately became active. At the same time, he was also absorbing the spiritual energy in the air. The sword Qi kept getting stronger, the speed of repairing the meridians kept increasing, the tenacity of the meridians kept getting stronger, and it broke again and again. During the process of recovery, Long Teng's meridians could not get stronger. His endurance ability continued to increase. When the spiritual energy was still present, the dragon Qi within Long Teng's body had already reached the late stage of absorbing the moonlight. The green dragon Qi immediately reacted when the Spiritual Qi entered his body. He quickly devoured the remaining moonlight. At the same time, the dragon core and the sword in his dantian respectively released Life Dragon Qi and Life Sword Qi. The Intrinsic Sword Qi and the Dragon Qi could not be compared by ordinary Dragon Qi and Sword Qi. The two of them continued to absorb and assimilate the spiritual energy of the world and the essence of the moon, turning them into dragon qi and sword qi. The speed of assimilation was ten times faster than the ordinary Sword Astral Dragon Qi. It quickly flowed into his meridians as the Intrinsic Flying Sword and dragon Qi continued to grow. They continued to attack the invader.

As the spiritual energy entered his body, a large amount of spiritual energy and moon essence rushed towards the heart of the Soaring Dragon. Fortunately, there was a three-clawed green dragon protecting him at the side of the Soaring Dragon's heart, and it constantly opened its mouth, swallowing the spiritual energy and moon essence into its body. When it reached a certain limit, the green dragon's body shrank again, but the green color on its body became even denser. The three-clawed green dragon continued to grow bigger and smaller, and the green color on its body constantly grew thicker. Like a guardian god guarding the heart of the dragon.

A "bang" resounded in Long Teng's mind like a clap of thunder. The dragon core and the sword in Long Teng's Dantian rotated at their maximum speed as they collapsed. The illusionary sword had dissipated, and the small amount of life force in the dragon core could only protect the dragon core as if it had lost its vitality and wasn't rotating at all. The dragon qi, which could no longer be controlled, rampaged in his dantian. His dantian was like a dam that had been broken off. Green colored dragon qi and silver colored sword qi mixed together, continuously rotating. It kept rolling like boiling water. Bright red blood constantly gushed out from the dragon's body that was covered in dragon scales. The entire body of the Soaring Dragon was covered in blood. At the same time, he also released a large amount of spiritual energy into his body.

Long Teng realized that things were not going well, regardless of the condition of his meridians. He forcefully endured the Emperor's pain within his body. That kind of heart-piercing emperor, that kind of pain that would cause one to never be able to live the rest of their life. He used his consciousness to control the two waves of Intrinsic Dragon Qi and sword Qi, flowing towards his Dantian. Very quickly, the Intrinsic Dragon Qi and Sword Qi returned to his dantian. The roiling dragon aura and the sword aura seemed to have found their backbone. The green dragon aura continued to flow towards the dragon aura. The dragon aura returned to the dragon core, and the dragon core regained its vitality and began to revolve. The silver dragon aura gushed towards the Intrinsic Sword Qi. It quickly solidified, and soon, a virtual sword formed once more. This Voidwave Sword was even more solid than last time. The Dragon Core and the sword once again circled around the center of his dantian, controlling the Dragon Qi and the sword aura. They kept spinning and transforming each other.

After this collapse, Long Teng's dantian had expanded by more than a fold. When Long Teng regained control of the dragon aura and sword aura in his dantian, the dragon aura and sword aura in his dantian were compressed again and became thicker. It only occupied the middle part of the Dantian. He felt that his dantian was empty. The Soaring Dragon controlled the dragon aura and the sword aura in his dantian to attack his meridians crazily, quickly assimilating the spirit energy and moonlight into his body. The spiritual energy and moonlight essence that entered his body was quickly destroyed by the reassembled dragon qi and sword qi. Long Teng Xu's dantian was once again filled to the brim. The dragon core in his dantian quickly absorbed and refined the newly transformed dragon qi and sword qi, simultaneously compressing. After a while, the Soaring Dragon had refined it. The Reed Void Sword Technique and Dragon Core in his dantian started to slow down, knowing the normal speed.

The green color on the dragon's body was slowly being absorbed by the dragon, transforming into green dragon Qi and silver sword Qi. As the green Qi dissipated, Long Teng's bloodied body was revealed. The azure dragon scales had already disappeared. The Azure Dragon transformation of the Soaring Dragon had disappeared.
