Chapter 56 - Primordial Azure Dragon

Wasteland of Death is one of the most three dangerous locations in the whole Blue Wind Empire. Usually, only cultivations at Earth Profound Realm and above would enter this place. The profound beasts around these barren land is cruel and filled with savagery.

"So this the Wasteland of Death huh." Fenlong muttered, while he looked around the cave.

"Specifically, this is the inheritance grounds of your ancestor, the Primordial Azure Dragon." Tatsuya said to Fenlong.

"I have only heard of his glorious name from legends that were passed down to us from generation to generation." Fenlong felt thrilled.

"…" Tatsuya fell silent.

It was then that a pair of mysterious eyes opened above the black space. Its irises looked like a slit, emanating a profound and dangerous aura.

Fenlong felt his heart throb in various complex emotion, while the dragon blood within his body was agitated by those pair of eyes. He knew that these eyes belonged to the Dragon God!

"Why are you here, young man? Are you not afraid of death?" An ancient deep voice resounded across the cave.

"Likewise, why don't you show yourself?" Tatsuya calmly answered.

"Very well…" The voice gradually disappeared.

The pair of eyes above them turned into specks of azure lights that formed the figure of a middle-aged man. He hovered in the air while a mighty dragon aura surrounded his body.

"Speak. Why did you come here, young man?" The middle-aged man looked at Tatsuya in annoyance.

"Am I not welcome here?" Tatsuya smiled.

"Of course, you are welcome here… if you wanted to die." The middle-aged man then appeared before Tatsuya in a single instant.

"…" Tatsuya calmly gazed at the middle-aged man.

"Oh? You're not afraid of me?" The Primordial Azure Dragon, in the form of a middle-aged man, spoke while he grinned.

"Why would I?" Tatsuya looked back at the middle-aged man, while his black hair fluttered.

"Very courageous indeed! Speak. I will ask you one more time. Why are you here?" The middle-aged man seemed amused, but his body began to leak out a threatening aura.

"If I said that I wanted your inheritance for my disciple, will you allow him to take the examination?" Tatsuya calmly nodded.

"Heh. Of course. But I must warn you, I can't guarantee that your disciple will come out alive." The middle-aged man sneered.

Tatsuya then fell silent. He actually came here for another reason. Initially, he wanted to check whether the Primordial Azure God is hostile or not. However, he already expected this situation.

"Then, I will not beat around the bush." Tatsuya's eyes turned serious.

"Let me use it." Tatsuya looked at the middle-aged man.

"What do you mean?" The middle-aged man frowned in displeasure.

"It's not possible even for you to sustain the inheritance grounds for countless of years without any power source. Where do you think you get it?" Tatsuya smiled.

"You… What are you hinting at?" The middle-aged man's expression had begun to change.

"I know that there's an Earth Dragon Jade below this cave…" Tatsuya pointed at the ground.

The Dragon God finally erupted in anger, as a threatening power burst out of his body. The wind retreated in reply, while the pressure pressed down upon Tatsuya's shoulder.

"Are you going to let me use it peacefully or not?" Tatsuya asked indifferently, while his hair and robes fluttered across the wind.

When Tatsuya reached the True God level, he only had a decent understanding only towards the lightning element at the stage of partial mastery. Right now, what he needed are treasures that are formed by nature to help him comprehend the elements.

It just so happened that Earth Dragon Jade is one of them…

"You think I'll allow you to use it? Did you forgot that you killed two of my brethren?" The Dragon God glared at Tatsuya.

"Do you really think that you are my match? If my disciple did not need your inheritance, you would have gone six feet under already." Tatsuya's expression turned frosty.

"You dare threaten me?!" The Dragon God began to leak out his killing intent.

Before Tatsuya can speak, the middle-aged man had already moved besides him. He raised his fist without holding back, directing its power towards Tatsuya.

"Is this all you've got?" Tatsuya calmly said, while he easily caught the middle-aged man's fist.

"Hmph. I did not even use a single percent of my power." The Dragon God snorted, while he retracted his fist, and tried to hit Tatsuya with his knee.

The force behind this strike is much more powerful compared to the previous attack. Tatsuya then suddenly vanished and appeared far from the middle-aged man.

"You only know how to dodge, aren't you?" The middle-aged man sneered.

"No. Please don't misunderstand…" Tatsuya said, while he stretched his shoulders, emitting a crackle that can rupture eardrums.

Fenlong had longed already distanced himself between the two. There was a wristband on him that were glowing in golden color. It was an artifact with formation diagram engraved in it which can protect him. Tatsuya had already explained that this fight might happen.

"Go for it, Master! Ancestor or whatnot. My master is the most powerful!" Fenlong raised his fist in cheer.

"I actually can kill any moment now. But I wanted someone to test my strength. You just happened to be the best candidate." Tatsuya spoke, while he formed a fighting stance.

"You… Good! Very good! This Dragon God shall show you the difference between our strength!" The middle-aged man's eyes brightened in azure-color.

Extreme lightning energy began to jump around Tatsuya's body, while formidable dragon tattoos spread throughout the middle-aged man's body. They both emitted a fearsome aura that scared every beast in the Wasteland of Death, alerting every cultivator in its wake.

Boom!

In a single instant, Tatsuya and the Dragon God had already clashed using their fist. Both of their power exploded forth without any restraint.

Tremble! The ground creaked and ruptured before their might, the air retreating in haste, while their extreme aura occupied every space in the Wasteland of Death.

"Dragon God's Claw!" The middle-aged man's fingers formed a claw, while he slashed it towards Tatsuya.

"Hmph." Tatsuya replied with his fists reinforced by his lightning energy.

Bang! Bang!

They collided all around the air, disappearing from this position to another. Every time they clashed, space would distort and rupture.

They had already formed hundreds of afterimages, with their speed far surpassing any powerhouse in existence.

At this moment, the world belonged only to the two of them. Their aura rocked the heavens and earth, as the image of White Tiger and Azure Dragon appeared across the vast skies of Profound Continent.

Booom!

Tatsuya used his agility to his advantages, nimbly dodging the Dragon God's attack. The Dragon God did not hold back and used every strength he can muster.

"I did not expect you to reach this level of strength…" The Dragon God's figure appeared in a distance.

"…" Tatsuya also reappeared far from the Dragon God, calmly gazing at the latter.

"But if that's all you have, everything will end here!" The Dragon God loudly proclaimed.

The middle-aged man stomped the earth with his strength, while his eyes completely turned golden. The figure of Primordial Azure Dragon suddenly appeared in the heavens, the Dragon God had transformed!

"Let's see if you can block this blow!" The Primordial Azure Dragon slithered across the skies, looking down at Tatsuya.

"I see… I would like to say thank you, Dragon God." Tatsuya looked at the Dragon God calmly.

"What are you saying?" The Primordial Azure Dragon looked confused.

"I now know how powerful am I." Tatsuya smiled, gripping his fists in the process.

"I'm sure that I'm far more powerful than you!" Tatsuya looked at the sky, while he waved his hand.

The sky suddenly turned dark and bleak, thunderstorm forming in an instant. A frightening pressure that can destroy anything in existence pressed down upon the Dragon God.

"W-what power is this?" The Dragon God trembled.

Lightning intertwined in the sky, weaving through the air like snakes. It began to congeal into a single line of lightning, bringing forth an aura of mass destruction.

Tatsuya flew towards the sky, while the dark mass of clouds housing fearful lightning was behind his back. He smiled at the Dragon God with a gaze that looked down upon anyone inferior to him.

"T-this is Master's current level of strength…" Fenlong had already felt cold.

"Divine Lightning Art: Subtle Leaf!" Tatsuya then raised his finger and pointed at the Primordial Azure Dragon.

The lightning in the sky suddenly flashed and landed on the Primordial Azure Dragon in an instant. Its power spread out like a leaf falling into a pond, creating a powerful ripple.

Booooom!

A frightening aura descended upon the entire planet of Blue Pole Star, making every existence within tremble in fear. The beings all looked at the sky and saw a single majestic line of lightning.

"T-true God Realm…" The Dragon God looked at the sky with his eyes, trembling in fear.

The lightning then completely enveloped the Primordial Azure Dragon, devouring it completely. The huge and vast Primordial Azure Dragon was eliminated under Tatsuya's single attack!

There was not even a trace of his existence left in the face of earth!

"T-this is simply… Is it even possible to reach this level of strength?" Fenlong looked at the sky in fear.

"…This is my Master's real power." Fenlong sucked a cold breath, while his gaze never left that figure floating in the sky.

Right now, Tatsuya looked like a god to Fenlong's eyes. The latter felt like it was just natural and he didn't feel any oddness from it. Fenlong then understood that Tatsuya had been a god from the very start.
