97 Martial Dragon God
Xue Long was meditating in front of a beach, his body form was surrounded by the diamond-like glow, and the atmosphere around him was warping from the sheer volume of this radiation.
The maids who were watching him from a distance were wondering if this was Great Arthan's Meditation or Lotus one. Or even something else entirely!
Regardless, they will wait to see what he is going to do.
Then… it started to happen.
Golden Dragon King manifested behind the Prince, followed by Fire Dragon King and finally Water Dragon King.
However, this was not all, as then Deva Monk appeared similarly behind him.
"Why does it feel like Deva Monk was a Martial Spirit instead of Martial Avatar, there is a clear distinction between those."
The difference is that Martial Avatar is like a puppet. Sure you could control your Martial Spirit similarly but that's after cultivating one's spirit with Lotus Meditation.
" I don't know… maybe Prince's Great Arthan's meditation reached the level where it's more like a Martial Spirit than Martial Avatar." One of the maids said with a shrug. Sure their Deva Monk finally has turned golden skin but it's nowhere near this level….
Followed after Deva Monk, was a roar which showed manifestation of the Blue Dragon, then spin into existence were two Yin and Yang symbols which were the representation of Tai Chi and Boundless Fist. Then followed by a Bug-like monster with scythes for arms… this was Praying Mantis…
This was not all as after that there were more animals that the girls never saw in their entire lives used by Xue Long!
Yet, they kept on coming!
'What is he doing!?' Qian Renxue thought with a sweaty forehead as she lost the count of the Martial Avatars he kept on summoning! Can one even know that many martial arts!?
Then it finally stopped!
By that point, there was a small army of beasts or some sort of symbols which represent a specific martial style.
This scene lasted for a few moments before the Golden Dragon King roared with power, and then all the Martial Avatars rushed into the Golden Dragon!
Creating a vortex of spiritual energy with the Golden Dragon being in the centre.
'What is going on!? It's like he is using martial arts to evolve the Golden Dragon King!? Wait, is he doing it!?' Gu Yuena wildly thought about it as she looked with bated breath. Na'er was silent as well, she looked through the same eyes as Gu Yue, waiting to see what would happen!
Moments later the vortex ended and all the Martial Avatars were absorbed by the Golden Dragon King, then the King of Beasts glowed as a golden cocoon formed around its body.
'The Golden Dragon King is evolving on its own!!! He took that Martial Spirit on a completely different path!' Gu Yuena didn't know how to feel about this! She was happy that he could do it himself, and on the other hand, she felt… weird that he was able to do it without her Martial Spirit help! It was an incredible reminder that you can do whatever you want to do as long as you have the drive to do it!
The cocoon process lasted for a few moments before it started to crack, little by little the cocoon cracked more and more before completely shattered and revealed what Xue Long's Martial Spirit looks like!
The maids, especially Gu Yuena and Qian Renxue finally saw how it looked. They were shocked the most. For the angel fiance of his, she always wanted to see the evolved form of his Martial Spirit ever since her's evolved, while for Gu Yuena… it was personal… to a very high degree.
But what they saw… it was nothing like they had ever seen before.
The Martial Spirit looked far…humane?
Standing on two legs with six dragon wings, it was a humanoid form of… a mix of human and dragon, dressed in a mix between monk robes and armour, armed with a familiar spear for Gu Yuena at least. Most striking was his face which was almost identical to Xue Long's, it had a dragon mask of the Golden Dragon King put on his side.
It was a warrior… or more precisely a Martial Artist. Though what struck the most was its sheer presence which was bending the very fabric of reality around it. It looked far too real to be called a martial soul.
What happened next were the 27 rings which spin into existence and started to merge, and other elements started to get added into them as well… the pace at which this process happened was so fast that it looked instantaneous even!
Though it should be impossible… unless time itself was altered for this to happen in just a few moments!
Once the rings were completed there were nine of them but they looked like nothing any of the maids had seen before, except for one maid who looked at the rings with a baffled look.
'They look like Divine Rings… no…he is emulating it? By this point even I don't know what he is doing!'
"Martial Dragon God evolution complete. See, girls this is how my Martial Spirit looks like when it evolved." Xue Long said that as he slowly got up on his feet.
"Shall we begin our last battle for the dominance of this continent?" He asked them, the girls still looked at the Martial Spirit with slightly opened mouths.
Only after hearing his question did they slowly nod at him.
"Well then, let's proceed."
"...Um… we do have a sea in front of us…"
"Since when does that stop us…" He snorted and his newly upgraded Second Ring glowed.
"Dragon God Second Ring, Reality is decided by a God."
The ring glowed and… Xue Long started to walk on the water.
"Let's proceed."
Seeing that… the maids looked at each other…
So he can warp reality now… alright…
All the maids simply shrugged and proceeded to follow him.
~~~
Walking on water was a unique sort of experience, they wanted to know the limits of such Ring ability. Specifically, Gu Yuena wanted to know everything about his new Martial Spirit!
Though their thoughts were disturbed by a loud sound which sounded like it was released by an enormous animal.
A few short seconds later something surfaced from the water. It was a huge whale-like creature, its body was shining like sapphires with two eyes on its head which were over 3 metres big. Though one of its eyes is damaged to the point that it looks like it's blind with that eye.
Though its body was enormous…
This was the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, the overlord of seas… more like an overlord for time being as Xue Long didn't even react to the Great Beast's approach.
"Bing'er be ready. I will be preparing this Beast for you."
"R-Right!" The blue-haired girl quickly got ready for whatever is going to happen next.
"Arrogant human! Your Arrogance will be—"
The Whale didn't finish speaking as he was pulled out from the water by its tail, the Martial Dragon God was holding it as if it was nothing in front of him.
Through all these events… they made so much sense at all. One moment the whale was rushing to kill all these people for their arrogance. The next whale was pulled out from the water!
It's like the entire sequence of actions was skipped! Is this reality warping? Time and space control or something else entirely!?
Yet, the Martial Dragon God grew in size to the point that it treated the whale as if it were just a small fish.
That moment the first ring glowed and thousands of slashes appeared on the Sapphire-coloured whale body!
"Martial Dragon God First Ring, Dragon God's Benevolence."
It's an ability which utterly defeats the enemy, but it will never kill.
Thus it's being called 'Benevolence'.
Once it was defeated the whale was simply thrown to the side… it didn't sink into the water, it simply floated there.
"Bing'er finish him off."
"O-Okay!"
The Ice Phoenix maid quickly snapped out of her reverie when she saw all that! That thing was around Million years old! Yet, it was treated like a regular fish!
The maid swiftly created an extremely sharp spear and thrusted. The thing was the beast was so large that the girl needed to make the spear extra long and extra sharp, though she knew the weak spot was its eyes so she nailed it there.
After some trying, she finally killed off and a golden Ring appeared above it.
"Whoa… a golden ring! Sweet God!" The blue-haired girl exclaimed when she saw the colour of the ring! She then jumped on the beast's corpse and then pulled the ring with her Spirit energy away from the corpse.
"Just in case I will help you if you are going to struggle with it. I have no doubt he left its presence inside the ring." Xue Long said that as he just appeared next to the Ice Phoenix maid.
Shui Bing'er slowly nodded as there was a small blush on her cheeks. She loves when her Prince pampers them from time to time! It makes her heart race several miles per hour!
"O-Okay!"
Seconds later she started the process, it's going to take several hours to absorb this ring. Not only that but the whale did indeed have its presence in the ring! It could have easily crushed Shui Bing'er mind but Xue Long was there to help her.
By this point the girl didn't even bother to know how he could do that… but it didn't matter, while Xue Long was punishing, brutally, the whale for trying to eat his maid, the blue-haired girl proceeded to absorb the ring.
It took her a lot of time but she was done! When she felt her cultivation base it was in late rank 96! She was a Super Douluo!
"Wow…such power… I went more than halfway to Rank 99!" As she exclaimed with such development she couldn't control herself anymore and simply went to hug her Prince! This was amazing! She was a Titled Douluo! No! A Super Douluo even before becoming twenty!
"Yes, yes, it's amazing now why don't we pull out that spirit bone from that whale?" He offered her.
"Of course! Oh my God… even a Spirit Bone!" It felt like it was her birthday! She is going to have a million-year-old bone!
Xue Long simply rolled his eyes, it's just some bone, he never bothered with this stuff though he does like his wings so he can understand her to some extent.
That moment his Martial Dragon God manifested and the Third Ring glowed. This time the Whale carcass was sliced into countless small bits and pieces, leaving the Spirit Bone visible to the naked eye.
"Martial Dragon God Third Ring, Dragon God's Punishment."
"...That was punishment?" Shui Bing'er gulped down when she heard the name of the attack… it was more like slaughter!
"Yes, Judgment is far too… well… dangerous for this planet."
"I don't want to know…" The Girl said while shaking her head… she already saw the Golden Dragon King Judgment… there is no way she wants to even know what an upgraded version looks like.
"Yes… Well, pick up the bone and fuse with it. It appears it's a torso.
~~~
"Hmm? Already done? It was only a few short seconds!" Shui Yue'er rushed over to see her sister walking over, there was a huge smile on her sister's lips.
"It was? No way! But—" Shui Bing'er then just facepalmed, only now she realised that no one except Xue Long was with her the whole time! He warped the surroundings to make her process as smooth as possible!
"Yes, yes. I warped space and time to make you progress to Super Douluo now let's continue, there should be more Aquatic beasts around, I still need that sea pet."
Xue Long casually motioned to follow him as they continued to walk towards the island.
