The elder Xu, protected by the golden dragonsoul, had endured the weakest part of being depleted of spiritual power. After all, with his current cultivation level, summoning the spirit of the Dark Phoenix was still a bit of a stretch. Luckily, he had an exceptional energy recovery technique like the Legendary Sword Breath; otherwise, the massive spiritual power needed for the summoning of the Dark Phoenix would have drained him completely.
Regaining his senses, Elder Xu formed a dragon mark, eliciting a long dragon chant from the stationary golden dragon on the ground.
The golden dragon's tail shimmered with gold light, transforming into the Xuangjin Armor, adhering to Elder Xu's slender figure.
His body, covered in the shining golden scaled armor, looked tightly protected; each dragon scale was opening and closing as if it were breathing. The dragon's tail transformed into a helmet, resting on Xu's head, exuding a heroic aura.
