After the Jiaolong Dragon agreed to Chen Yun's demands, everyone scattered quickly, leaving a large area for Chen Yun and the Jiaolong Dragon to serve as the main battlefield.
Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming, and Long Nü Sanjiu, along with dozens of other companions, were all watching Chen Yun with great tension.
Although Chen Yun's plan could increase the probability of victory, the opponent was a Jiaolong Dragon, with strength comparable to that of the supreme master. They were really afraid that Chen Yun might perish.
The leader of the merfolk and about a hundred merfolk warriors also looked on with concern.
They knew Chen Yun had courage, but in terms of hard power, it couldn't make up for it with bravery alone.
Chen Yun looked up at the sky and reached out to the Long Qing Chi Xue array, "You said that you would let me use all means. This array is one of my means. So please enter the array."
"Good!"
The Jiaolong Dragon didn't try to haggle, and agreed immediately.
The youth appeared in his shiny gold armor and silver helmet, with his straight eyebrows expressing his vigor.
After transforming into the young man, the youth formed by the Jiaolong Dragon suddenly fell to the beach and calmly said, "Now that I've transformed into a human form, my power is probably only about 20% of what it was in dragon form. You might not be able to sense this, but you can let the merfolk leader take a look to see if I'm lying. His power is not too far from mine, so he should be able to tell."
Chen Yun said, "That's unnecessary. I believe you will keep your word."
Hmm, his words sounded nice, but he had already used the "observation of qi" skill to investigate and knew that the other party was telling the truth.
After a round of communication, Chen Yun and the Jiaolong Dragon entered the array one after another.
A cup of tea is about equal to ten minutes.
So half a cup of tea is five minutes.
If there is no object to keep time, both parties might try to disavow their part.
Therefore, the merfolk leader reached out and waved his hand, using his spiritual power to condense a shadow of a water-colored qi created by the empty space.
This empty space is although virtual, but look it is infinitely real.
Apart from the core water vessel, the floating sword, timing accuracy, and division of scales are all clearly visible.
The merfolk leader reached out and drew a line of spiritual power on the virtual water clock, making a certain place turn red.
He immediately declared in a loud voice: "When the floating sword rises to the red mark line, it will indicate that time is up. When you two are ready, say so and I will start timing officially."
Chen Yun took a deep breath, and his spiritual power burst out instantly, activating the Qinglong Chi Xue great array.
Instantly, the beach nearby was covered with a layer of blazing hot and dry light.
At this time, he finally replied to the merfolk leader: "I am ready."
The Jiaolong Dragon seemed unprepared for the incredible Qinglong Chi Xue great array; once activated, it continuously emitted dry light that suppressed its power.
The Jiaolong Dragon swept his eyes over the array in admiration, then laughed silently to himself, "Your array is quite good. However, if you want to use it to delay for half a cup of tea, I advise you not to dream."
Speaking, it also full energy and strength said: "I am ready!"
The merfolk leader replied, "Well done, I will begin the official timing!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the clock began to operate.
At the same time, the Jiaolong Dragon in the array also followed the principle of rapid attack, launching its first wave of offensive!
The Jiaolong Dragon opened its mouth widely and exhaled, a fierce beam of white light surged out and flew straight towards Chen Yun.
This beam was about the thickness of an arm, and it didn't look very formidable.
However, Chen Yun felt a terrifying energy fluctuation from this beam and knew that if he was hit by it, there was a good chance he would be reduced to dust.
He did not hesitate to extend his hand and strike, with rainbow light and purple mist instantly enveloping his surroundings.
Boom!
A colossal boom erupted from within the Qinglong Chi Xue great array.
Due to the special nature of the great array, those outside could not see what was happening inside at all.
Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming, and Long Nü Sanjiu, along with the others, heard the sudden boom and their hearts were raised to their throats, all worried about Chen Yun.
The merfolk leader and the over one hundred merfolk warriors were also focused on watching, hoping that the inside of the array would remain active, which meant Chen Yun was still alive.
As everyone's emotions fluctuated,
Suddenly, the Jiaolong Dragon inside the array transmitted a surprised voice, "Hey, you little guy, you have some actual strength!"
Hmm?
What does that remark mean?
Could it be that Mr. Chen easily repelled the Jiaolong Dragon's first wave of attack?
Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming, and Long Nü Sanjiu, and the others couldn't help but exchange looks in disbelief. Chen Yun, with only a mid-stage refinement of an upper-level mage, was actually able to withstand a single strike from a Jiaolong Dragon whose strength was comparable to that of the supreme master.
Even if the Jiaolong Dragon had to restrain its power, limiting it to only 20% of its full potential, the power it could unleash with a casual strike would likely be more terrifying than even the most powerful high-level mage's full-body blast.
The merfolk leader and the warriors were all in a similar state of shock, momentarily frozen in place.
It could be that they knew Chen Yun had withstood the Jiaolong Dragon's first wave of attack.
Now, those who had previously been concerned about Chen Yun's safety were instantly interested and wanted to know what was going on inside the array right now.
Unfortunately, Chen Yun was fully utilizing the Qinglong Chi Xue great array, with dry light not only blocking the naked eye but also resisting even spiritual power. No one could tell how their combat was going on.
However, the events that followed revealed that Chen Yun was not just passively defending and dragging out time; he was even initiating attacks.
The crowd watched as the Qinglong Chi Xue great array, which covered a distance of tens of li, suddenly burst with dry light, pouring recklessly downward.
Following that, a series of massive booms and thunderous roars resonated continuously from within the great array.
Dry light and white light kept alternating and rising.
Suddenly, the wind and rain grew stronger, and thunder clashed.
The shouts of battle erupted from within the Qinglong Chi Xue great array.
The sounds of battle, at times Chen Yun's voice, at others the roaring of the Jiaolong Dragon.
The two sounds rose and fell repeatedly, clearly audible for hundreds of li around.
The area covered by the great array, where dry light burst out violently like a rocket, caused the earth to tremble and mountains to shake.
Wu Kejiu, the merfolk leader, and all the others knew that an extraordinary battle was taking place within the great array.
Each person held their breath and stared intently at the great array, eager to know the outcome of the ultimate struggle between the two.
……
Within the array.
After Chen Yun used the Taiji Zhusou Baoyu Dress to withstand the Jiaolong Dragon's first wave of attack, he did not choose to defend passively.
He held the Chijin Zhanye Sword in one hand and the Main Array Banner in the other, swaying it.
The true qi within him surged in like a tide, continuously flowing into the great array, propelling the Qinglong Chi Xue array to emit terrifying dry light.
One by one, the dry light was like the laser cannons of sci-fi space battleships, falling down from the sky like raindrops, one after another.
What's most crucial is its precision.
Each beam of dry light struck the young man transformed from the Jiaolong Dragon fiercely.
The terrifying energy surged, causing a violent earthquake that cracked the ground.
Even the Sun and Moon Spring outside the great array was shaken by the powerful force, causing a towering wave.
It can be imagined just how terrifying the power that Chen Yun could unleash is after breaking through to the mid-stage of an upper-level mage and fully activating the Qinglong Chi Xue great array.
The Jiaolong Dragon seemed to have never expected this. The dry light was almost endless.
Even though each beam of dry light couldn't deal significant damage to it, the dry light was suppressing it, and millions of beams raining down from above continuously bombarded its body. This prevented its qi from completely condensing at once, forcing it to passively endure the attack.
If anyone has watched "Dragon Ball," they would remember the scene where Tianjinfan used the new Kamehameha to control the second-stage Shru.
Now, Chen Yun is continuously emitting dry light from the Qinglong Chi Xue great array, almost exactly the same scene.
The torrent of dry light slamming down from the sky rendered the Jiaolong Dragon, who could only use 20% of its full power, unable to move, and it could only roar helplessly.
However, this scene did not last long.
The Jiaolong Dragon might have been provoked by the endless dry light "controlled" by itself.
The Jiaolong Dragon gave up its defense, letting the dry light bombard its body, and instantly concentrated the qi within its body. It burst out in an instant, exploding outward.
A terrifying scene spontaneously emerged!
"I want you to die!"
The Jiaolong Dragon roared, and its entire body burst with white light as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting.
The white light swelled in the wind, transforming into a towering figure of several hundred meters high, as intense as the sun, shrouded in a misty illusion of a divine general.
When this towering and majestic figure like a divine general appeared.
Suddenly, the white mist filled the entire Qinglong Chi Xue great array.
Instantly, the surroundings became vast and desolate, with no sunlight visible, and the temperature dropped to the point of freezing in a split second.
The beach where the great array was located was transformed into ice crystals by this terrifying coldness in a split second, and then suddenly shattered.
Once the white qi mist completely enveloped this space, there were ice crystals flying everywhere.
The next second, the young man transformed from the Jiaolong Dragon's eyes revealed an eerie red.
The divine general figure that had just formed from white light suddenly collapsed in an explosive manner.
With the collapse of the white divine general, it seemed as if the heavens themselves were collapsing.
It was as if the top of their heads, the Qinglong Chi Xue great array within was instantly frozen.
Sizzle, sizzle.
A series of sparks, blue in color, revealed themselves amidst the ice crystals and white qi mist.
Cold air swept, and the ice crystals leaped.
The terrifying force destroys everything.
With a loud boom, the great array above, covered in dry light, was overturned.
Numerous true qi deeply inserted into the ground also shook up instantly.
The Qinglong Chi Xue great array has been broken!
Thus, an even more terrifying scene emerged.
Originally, the Qinglong Chi Xue great array could still restrain the explosion of approximately half of the Jiaolong Dragon's power.
Now, after the great array was shattered, that white qi mist surged up to several tens of thousands of meters in the sky, expanding and spreading.
In just a blink of an eye, it had already frozen the entire sky.
It was as if the sky had completely transformed into a massive ice sheet.
This was not the most terrifying part.
What is even more terrifying is that countless white qi mist filled the air, freezing every inch of it into ice, connecting with the ice layer in the sky, forming a massive rectangular ice crystal space.
A series of blinding light, earth-shattering ground, and deep impact were deeply moving.
Within this realm covered by an abundance of white qi mist, lightning ice crystals.
Even those who are not martial artists can feel the terrifying power of the Jiaolong Dragon, which is only using 20% of its true power!
It's unstoppable!
Powerful beyond imagination!
Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming, and Long Nü Sanjiu felt awe and even couldn't help but have the thought that they would never be able to defeat the Jiaolong Dragon. Their cultivation hearts were shaken and broken.
The merfolk leader and the warriors of the merfolk tribe couldn't help but take a deep breath.
They had long known of the Jiaolong Dragon's prowess, but they hadn't really expected that even with only 20% of its power, the opponent could still be so ferocious.
Now, all those looking at Chen Yun couldn't help but show expressions of worry and concern in their eyes.
The Jiaolong Dragon unleashed such a terrifying power.
Chen Yun is just a mid-stage upper-level mage cultivator.
How are they supposed to endure it for half a tea break?
However, the moment everyone saw it, their worried expressions had not even formed on their brows when they were instantly replaced by visible astonishment.
Whether it was Chen Yun's companions Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming, and Long Nü Sanjiu.
Or the merfolk leader and hundreds of merfolk warriors.
Everyone saw serenity and composure from Chen Yun's face, where colorful radiance and purple mist were bursting forth.
At this moment, Chen Yun was completely different from the one in the great array, with the "equipment" he held.
Although Chen Yun still held the Chijin Zhanye Sword in his left hand, his right hand's main array banner had completely disappeared.
In its place was a pagoda.
It was a half-foot-tall pagoda that could be held in one hand, and it was of five-color gem-like luster.
The pagoda was filled with a multitude of radiant lights.
The pagoda illuminated the "ice crystal space" frozen by the Jiaolong Dragon's powerful coldness qi with its five colors.
It seems like at this moment, there is only the color of radiance in the sky and earth!
