"Heh."
Chu Ge let out a light chuckle and said no more. He activated the source energy within his body and poured it into the Huanglong Seal.
The previously quiet Huanglong Seal instantly burst into radiant light.
"Stop! What are you doing?!"
Luo Qingyu's eyes bulged as he roared in shock.
"You'll find out very soon."
Chu Ge ignored him completely. The source energy throughout his body boiled as it continued to surge into the Huanglong Seal.
The Huanglong Seal began to tremble violently. The true spirit within it started to awaken.
A resentful emotion was transmitted into Chu Ge's mind.
This was the dissatisfaction of the Huanglong Seal's true spirit.
It had been sleeping soundly, only to be rudely slapped awake.
But as the steady stream of source energy continued to pour in, another emotion—one of joy—was transmitted instead, as if it were saying, "Yay! There's food again!"
"Roar—!"
A faint yet unmistakable dragon's roar echoed through the void.
"This is the awakening of the true spirit? You! You! You—!"
Luo Qingyu was so shocked he could barely form words!
This junior was actually forcing the true spirit of the Huanglong Seal to awaken!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You have neither the bloodline of my Luo family, nor have you cultivated my Luo family's techniques—by what right can you awaken the true spirit?!"
"By what right?"
A cruel smile appeared on Chu Ge's face.
"By virtue of my overwhelming source energy!"
"Old dog, come and savor the Huanglong Seal you've been craving so desperately!"
The dragon's roar in the void grew ever clearer. A massive, illusory dragon-shaped phantom appeared above Chu Ge's head, occupying most of the sky.
"Go!"
With a resounding dragon cry, driven by Chu Ge's command, a dazzling pillar of light shot forth explosively, instantly crushing toward Luo Qingyu!
"BOOM—!"
A deafening explosion rang out. In a single strike, the vast stretch of void where Luo Qingyu stood was blasted into complete fragments!
A scream rang out from the center of the explosion as a figure came crashing down—
it was Luo Qingyu!
The mighty expert who had been so overwhelming just moments ago was now reduced to only half a body…
Half of Luo Qingyu's body looked as if it had been erased outright. His lower half had vanished into nothingness, leaving only his upper body behind!
A great expert spilled blood!
"Ju… Junior Brother! So this is what you were relying on?"
Su Lingyuan's eyes were wide with shock.
Chu Ge nodded.
Ever since the Huanglong Seal had fallen into his hands, he had often studied it in his spare time.
After all, with a supreme treasure in hand, how could he not make use of it?
Through repeated attempts, he truly managed to figure something out and establish a connection with the true spirit inside.
Although he could not refine it into something that truly belonged to him, he was still able to wield its power.
The method was simple—he only needed to inject the source power of his sacred physique to awaken the Huanglong Seal's true spirit and unleash its might.
However, this was not without limits. With his current strength, the power he could draw was roughly equivalent to one full-force strike of a peak great expert. Any more than that was beyond him.
After all, the Huanglong Seal was itself incomplete and not in its prime state.
"Fourth Uncle! Fourth Uncle! Are you alright?!"
Luo Feipeng panicked. In the blink of an eye, his once majestic and imposing fourth uncle had been reduced to half a body!
Although more than half of his body had been blown away, Luo Qingyu was not dead so easily. As a great expert, he still retained clear consciousness.
But upon hearing Luo Feipeng's words, he nearly fainted from rage.
You idiot… half of my body is gone, and you're still asking if I'm alright?!
"Idio—…"
