"Ice Dragon Transformation!" As Hornless Dragon shouted, his body began to transform
Two horns gradually grew out from Hornless Dragon's head, while whiskers gradually appeared. After the transformation, the upper half of Hornless Dragon resembled the appearance of a horned dragon.
"Do you know what great technique I've gained from inheriting a dragon's essence, young man?" Hornless Dragon asked proudly.
"You gained the ability to transform into an animal?" Su Mo asked with a smile.
"Sharp-tongued kid, I'll tear you apart!"
Hornless Dragon couldn't help but burst into a fit of rage when he heard Su Mo insulting the inheritance he had obtained. Su Mo even called him an animal.
However, Su Mo wasn't wrong. Hornless Dragon had obtained the incomplete form of the Ice Dragon by absorbing its essence. Although he hadn't learned any of the Ice Dragon's abilities, he could transform into a human-dragon hybrid.
Hornless Dragon's strength, speed, and explosive power would be significantly enhanced by transforming into a human-dragon hybrid. This was also Hornless Dragon's final trump card.
"You couldn't kill me as a human, so you're going to try and kill me as an animal instead? Su Mo mocked.
While fighting, Su Mo would try to tease and provoke his enemies. Making them panic and behave more recklessly. This was highly beneficial to Su Mo.
Hornless Dragon managed to fight calmly before this. However, after transforming, he would become even more irritable under the influence of the Ice Dragon's essence.
Therefore, it was just as Su Mo thought. Hornless Dragon began to attack frantically without any discernible pattern.
Hornless Dragon was a swordsman, yet he did not use any sword techniques. Instead, he charged toward Su Mo with his bare fists.
Su Mo raised his fists to block, and this time he was no longer hesitant nor anxious. Su Mo was immediately hit to the ground, deeply embedded in it.
"D*mn, this guy is so freakishly strong!" Su Mo said as he spat blood from his mouth.
Su Mo had never met anyone who possessed such a strong physical body either than himself, especially since he obtained the Innate Saint-like Physique.
When Su Mo was struck to the ground, Hornless Dragon immediately charged in his direction. Su Mo noticed this but struggled to get up, narrowly avoiding Hornless Dragon's attack.
Su Mo managed to dodge, but a heavy attack hit the Hornless Ice Dragon Village again.
"Looks like I'll have to use other means to defeat him," Su Mo sighed.
"Third Level: Immortal inversion!" Su Mo shouted.
This was a secret technique that overtook Su Mo's body. It allowed his mana to burn up, obtaining a short-term increase in strength.
Seeing that his attack had missed, Hornless Dragon once again charged toward Su Mo.
Su Mo then brazenly swung his fist to collide with the attack. The two were now in old-fashioned hand-to-hand combat.
"Doesn't this remind you of that time?"
"It does. It's just like last time when Hornless Dragon used this form to fight against Li Jianting."
"But who's he fighting now?"
"It has to be Su Mo," a person, who had witnessed Su Mo's battle with the clan master of the Myriad Flower Blades, replied.
"Is that guy really that strong?" The other person asked in disbelief.
Su Mo had some difficulties fighting with the clan master of the Myriad Flower Blades a month ago, but he's now managing to hold his own against Hornless Dragon. This shocked everyone on the floating island.
"It would seem that our clan master has underestimated Su Mo. You should go back to the village and inform them. I'll wait here to see the outcome of this battle," The fifth elder of the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan instructed the disciple beside him.
People had come over from all over after hearing the commotion between Su Mo and Hornless Dragon.
…
Seeing that people had come to watch his clan master battle, Yu Yuanjia said with yearning as he went into hiding again, "You're too fierce Clan Master Su! I must learn everything he has to teach me. A real battle is when the fist meets the flesh!"
…
"Dragon Abyss Fist!"
Hornless Dragon had spent a large sum of money to acquire this technique. He had gone to the outside of the floating island to obtain this technique so he could adapt it into his fighting style.
"Do you think that your fist technique is worthy of the word 'Dragon'?" Su Mo said disdainfully.
"Dragon Fist!"
A golden dragon head and a blue dragon head collided, causing the spectators to retreat.
The two cultivators battled at the center of the village as a shockwave visible to the naked eye swept across the land.
"The battle between the humanoid dragon and the devil of the Crimson Hearts is truly terrifying!" The spectators had the same thoughts.
After the two separated, they exclaimed and continued to battle.
After fighting for an extended time, Su Mo felt that his strength was beginning to fade. He knew that he could not afford to drag this fight on for much longer.
"This next punch contains three months' worth of strength, Hornless Dragon! I don't know if you can handle it or not!" Su Mo yelled menacingly.
"I'll send you to the afterlife with this punch! Reincarnation Punch!" A strange distorted light emitted from Su Mo's fist.
At this moment, everyone felt slightly dizzy.
"This fist technique is tangible, yet it is also an illusion?!" The spectators were shocked!
The fist technique locked onto Hornless Dragon, causing him to become dazed as he stood still. He had fallen into the illusion of the Reincarnation Fist.
The Reincarnation Fist was the best fist technique across the Cloud Hong Continent. Su Mo had received this technique as a reward from the system. Legend has it that immortals created this technique.
When one successfully executed this attack, it would trap people into its illusion.
However, Su Mo was not at that level yet. He could only manage to lure his target into the illusion and then blow them up with his punch.
Su Mo's fist struck Hornless Dragon with unerring accuracy.
Even though Hornless Dragon's hybrid form had excellent defenses, he was still blown up by Su Mo's fist when he fell into the illusion.
When Su Mo's fist touched Hornless Dragon, he felt a sharp pain and briefly recovered consciousness, but he was powerless to retaliate.
However, he did one last thing before dying. He sent a stream of flashing light into the distance.
"Was that a summon?"
Su Mo muttered as he shook his fist and looked into the distance. He felt that he should use this scene as a means of communication to show other clans what he was capable of.
"Haven't you seen enough? I think it's about time you all go home now," Su Mo said as he glared at the people around him.
Su Mo was covered in blood, making him look like a demon from Hell.
The spectators quickly ran away when they saw that Su Mo had defeated Hornless Dragon. They were afraid that Su Mo would kill them next. The quickest one to leave was the fifth elder of the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan.
"Well, there's nothing left for us to do here," Su Mo said as Yu Yuanjia approached him.
"I am eternally grateful to you for avenging me, Clan Master Su!" Yu Yuanjia quickly said.
'System, initiate recycling sequence!' Su Mo instructed in his subconscious.
Ever since the Myriad Flower Blade Clan incident, Su Mo knew that the system could directly recycle valuable items from the village he had destroyed.
There was no need for Su Mo to collect these things independently. Moreover, the system could recycle them faster and more efficiently than Su Mo.
"So Lin Ping was telling the truth?!"
Yu Yuanjia looked at the floating materials, resources, and treasures coming to Su Mo's side in shock.
Lin Ping had told the disciples of this before, but it was too fantastic for the others to believe. Yu Yuanjia thought it was simply impossible, but he had finally seen it with his own eyes.
"Don't just stand there. Let's go back to the village" Su Mo was puzzled. He wondered why his disciples always seemed to be in a daze.
"Y-Yes, sir!"
Then the two flew into the sky and shot toward the Crimson Heart Village.
…
At this moment, an outsider landed on the floating island.
