Chapter 153: True Qi Transforms into a Dragon

Watching the expression on Lin Le’s face, Gong Shu Ye’s heart burned with even greater fury. The opponent’s strength was truly formidable. It seemed that to win, he had no choice but to unleash his ultimate move.

Gong Shu Ye’s entire countenance suddenly darkened. Then, he took a deep breath—so deep and powerful, it was as if he were swallowing mountains and rivers, a breath that lasted for dozens of seconds, continuously drawing air into his body.

His belly swelled outward, bulging high like a balloon filled with gas, almost distorting its shape.

Xie Jingguo and the others nearby watched in astonishment. They had never witnessed such a breathtaking technique and could not immediately comprehend Gong Shu Ye’s intention.

Lin Le frowned upon seeing this. He could sense that as Gong Shu Ye kept inhaling, an invisible force was gathering inside him. Yet Lin Le had no idea how this intangible power was being generated.

Then, Gong Shu Ye finally ceased inhaling. After a brief pause, he opened his mouth wide like a fierce demon.

“Ah-hou!” A tremendous, rumbling dragon roar suddenly erupted from Gong Shu Ye’s mouth.

At the same time, an even more astonishing sight appeared. Along with the roar, a stream of white true energy burst forth from Gong Shu Ye’s mouth!

Rather than dissipating immediately, the white true energy condensed together, morphing into a majestic white dragon that twisted and roared fiercely.

“This is... the True Energy Dragon Transformation!” Xie Xinglong exclaimed.

He immediately recognized that Gong Shu Ye was employing the highest level of the Ascending Dragon Fist technique—the True Energy Dragon Transformation!

The vast breath Gong Shu Ye had absorbed was rapidly converted within his body into a sharp true energy, which was then released, taking the shape of a dragon. This was the true energy transforming into a dragon!

Xie Xinglong marveled inwardly. He had heard from his master, Gong Shu Ye, that this move wielded tremendous power and was the deadliest strike of the Ascending Dragon Fist, only used in the most desperate circumstances.

Until now, Xie Xinglong had only heard tales and never witnessed Gong Shu Ye employ it. Unexpectedly, Gong Shu Ye had now unleashed this supreme move to confront Lin Le.

Lin Le, oh Lin Le, it seemed this time your fate was sealed!

Xie Jingguo, Xie Yucheng, and the others also stared wide-eyed at the scene, unable to believe their eyes.

To think a single exhalation could manifest such a powerful dragon form was beyond their comprehension.

It was as if a deity was at work—how could mere mortals accomplish such a wondrous feat?

They had long known masters were formidable, but only now truly understood the terrifying extent of a grandmaster’s power.

Xie Qiushan’s heart was pounding wildly. Gong Shu Ye’s strength was simply overwhelming. Even if her son Lin Le had learned some skills in the army over the past three years, he was still far from matching such a transcendent martial arts master.

Her only hope was that Lin Le would emerge unscathed.

At that moment, the white dragon formed from true energy spiraled from Gong Shu Ye’s mouth, coiling once around him before roaring and soaring upward, rising dozens of meters in an instant.

The spectacle of the white dragon ascending left everyone dumbfounded. If such a phenomenon occurred in the public eye, it would surely cause a massive sensation.

As the white dragon soared, a fierce light appeared in Gong Shu Ye’s eyes.

“Lin Le, you have harmed my disciple and provoked the Xie family. Today, I will make you pay with your life through this True Energy Dragon!” he declared.

With that, Gong Shu Ye raised his palm in midair and shouted, “Slash!”

The single word ‘Slash’ was like issuing a death sentence to Lin Le.

Immediately, the true energy white dragon circling in the air seemed to respond to Gong Shu Ye’s command. It let out a mighty dragon roar, twisted its body, and dove directly toward Lin Le.

The roaring sound shook the air with thunderous intensity.

The dragon charged with incredible speed, appearing as a flash of white light as it closed in overhead.

Though standing some distance away, everyone could feel the fierce power radiating from the dragon, an overwhelming pressure that made it hard to breathe.

Lin Le, directly beneath this imposing force, felt the entire ground trembling violently beneath his feet.

He could vividly sense the boundless power of the true energy dragon—an unprecedented strength he had never encountered before.

Yet compared to the grandeur of the Supreme Emperor Lingxiao, it still fell short.

As the dragon thundered down, Lin Le summoned his own true energy and roared, “Lingxiao Eight Absolutes, One Fist to Pierce the Heavens!”

With a mighty punch, the fierce true energy coalesced explosively around Lin Le’s fist.

“Boom!” A colossal fist formed from true energy, speckled with myriad starlights, surged upward from the ground to meet the dragon in midair.

The clash of the true energy dragon against the gigantic true energy fist was a breathtaking spectacle that left all watching in awe.

They felt as though they were witnessing a battle of gods, as Lin Le and Gong Shu Ye fought like celestial beings.

Gong Shu Ye’s lips curled into a cold sneer.

“You brat, do you really think my True Energy Dragon is so easily broken? You underestimate my skills far too much!”

---

Just as the gigantic fist was about to strike the true energy dragon, Gong Shu Ye waved his hands left and right and commanded, “Split!”

At the word, the diving white true energy dragon suddenly dispersed, fragmenting into countless slender streaks of white true energy, like feathers drifting down from the sky, swarming toward Lin Le.

Lin Le’s mighty fist, which had broken through the dragon’s form, passed through the gaps of this white true energy snowstorm without any effect.

“Huh?” Lin Le exclaimed in surprise and suspicion. He hadn’t expected Gong Shu Ye to be so cunning.

At this moment, Lin Le no longer had any chance to evade.

In the next instant, the swirling white true energy descended in a furious storm.

“Rumble!” Deafening explosions echoed as the countless true energy fragments bombarded the area around Lin Le, enveloping a radius of over ten meters.

The entire zone seemed under relentless artillery fire, raising clouds of dust and debris as if the heavens and earth were collapsing.

“Little Le!” Xie Qiushan cried out in a heart-wrenching scream.

The destructive power of the true energy snowstorm was so immense it could annihilate worlds. How could Little Le possibly escape?

Xie Qiushan feared the worst for her son.

Xie Jingguo and Xie Yucheng were utterly shaken by Gong Shu Ye’s incredible technique.

More than ever, they felt proud and confident that the Xie family had allied with such a peerless grandmaster.

With a formidable master like Gong Shu Ye guarding their family, no powerful adversary could hope to gain the upper hand here.

In the hearts of Xie Xinglong, Xie Dong, and Xie Ziyun, joy surged wildly.

Given the power behind Gong Shu Ye’s attack, even an iron man would likely be pulverized into dust.

This time, Lin Le’s death seemed inevitable.

As these thoughts crossed their minds, the dust slowly began to settle.

The concrete ground beneath them was shattered into countless fist-sized fragments.

Within a radius of over ten meters, the earth had subsided, forming a half-meter-deep crater.

When everyone looked toward the center of the dust cloud, they were stunned by what they saw.

Amidst the hazy smoke, a faint figure stood steadily, like a ghostly apparition.
