Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 221 Battle against the Chi Dragon, Entering the Immortal Abode

"hiss!"

Even though he had expected it, Wan Yu still couldn't help but gasp when he saw the size and level template of this real dragon.

"As expected, it's a true dragon based on a mythological template. This time, we're in luck."

Chi Jianxin stood beside him, raised his hand, and two streams of light flew out from behind his head, swirling rapidly around him. He said in a deep voice:

"Just based on how easily he defeated Lü Sheng, he already has the potential to become a true disciple. In addition, with this dragon transformation, once he passes the heavenly tribulation and becomes a true disciple, he will definitely be one of the best among the true disciples in the future."

He glanced at Wan Yu and said calmly:
"At that time, I'm afraid I'll be qualified to compete for the position of sect leader of your Xuanzhen Immortal Sect."

Wan Yu nodded and said:
"There is indeed that opportunity."

Seeing his calm expression, Chi Jianxin asked with some surprise:

"Don't you have that thought?"

Wan Yu laughed and said:
"Of course I had that idea, but what can I do if I'm not as skilled as others?"

"Not to mention Junior Brother Su who hasn't even undergone his tribulation yet, there are several disciples of my generation who surpass me. Add to that all the past disciples, and I'm not even in the top ten. What makes me think I can compete for the position of sect leader?"

However, Chi Jianxin still shook his head and said:

"The position of sect leader isn't solely based on strength; it also depends on one's style and methods. You're not entirely without ability."
"Roar!"

A deafening dragon roar interrupted their conversation, and the Crimson Dragon took the initiative to charge forward, instantly becoming entangled with the Chi Dragon.

Without supernatural powers or breath control, it relies solely on its powerful dragon body for hand-to-hand combat.

For these two true dragons, each with a level of 200 and a health of over 100 million, other divine arts and techniques are merely superficial; the most efficient way to fight is still through hand-to-hand combat.

With a single swipe of its claws, dragon scales flew and dragon blood splattered, and in no time, the dragon was covered in blood.

Once the two true dragons were locked in combat, Wan Yu waved his hand and ordered the team to prepare in the channel.

Hundreds of powerful players were already in position. As the Crimson Dragon dragged the Chi Dragon down, Wan Yu gave an order in the channel, and hundreds of attacks bombarded the area in an instant.

These are all carefully selected individuals with considerable strength, capable of breaking through the defenses of the Chilong. Although there aren't many of them, they add up over time.

The main fighting force was still the thirty-odd people on the flying boat, including twenty-two loose immortals, plus a dozen or so loose immortals from the Wanyu Guild.

Wan Yu was the first to strike. He summoned a platinum gourd and continuously spewed out exceptionally sharp platinum and genjin sword energy, which broke through the defenses of the Chilong's body, which had more than 100,000 units, and still caused more than 100,000 damage.

Chi Jianxin, the Nine Heavens Sword Master, wields two flying swords of the ninth rank. Although they are not yet combined, each sword can still deal more than 10,000 damage after deducting defense. The attack speed of the two swords is extremely fast, and the overall burst is much stronger than Wan Yu's.

The monk Yuanjue activated his Arhat blessing powers, borrowing the divine power of the Dragon-Subduing Arhat, and transformed into a golden Arhat several meters tall. He jumped onto the dragon's body and swung his huge golden fist, smashing it down with each punch dealing damage of up to 40,000 to 50,000.

Apart from the three of them, the remaining thirty-odd loose immortals had a significantly lower burst power, with the total burst power of all thirty-odd loose immortals combined being less than 300,000.

Although the damage wasn't very high, it added up, and with the Crimson Dragon now in control and completely dominating, the Chi Dragon had no chance to fight back.

This was also Su Yu's first time engaging in hand-to-hand combat. His massive body entangled the dragon, which was smaller than him. The lower two-thirds of the dragon's body were intertwined and could not be separated. The four dragon claws slammed against each other, and the dragons opened their fangs and bit each other, with blue and red scales mixed with dragon blood flying everywhere.

Although there was a 6-level difference, Su Yu could clearly feel that she was superior in both size and strength, and she suppressed the opponent so that the opponent could not resist.

Putting everything else aside, at least for the 9 minutes and 25 seconds that he is currently in his dragon form, this dragon has no chance to turn the tide.

Yes, after the Qi Refining Technique was upgraded to level 90, the duration of the Dragon Transformation skill has increased by one and a half minutes compared to before.

The ensuing battle went as expected. The dragon was completely suppressed and unable to move, and its health dropped rapidly under their relentless bombardment.

After a five or six-minute onslaught, the dragon's health remained above 100 million, but its resistance began to decrease.

At a certain moment, it suddenly released its fangs and spoke in human language:

"Let it end here. You have earned my approval."

Wan Yu immediately ordered a halt to the attack, and Su Yu also released the dragon coils around him and soared into the air.

"The most troublesome issue has been resolved."

Wan Yu soared into the air, bowed to the Chilong, and earnestly said:

"Guardians, please open the Immortal Abode!"

However, the dragon merely glanced at him and said with apparent disdain:

"I do not acknowledge you. If you wish to break through the Immortal Abode, you must strive on your own. I am leaving!"

After saying that, the enormous dragon flicked its tail and plunged into the sea, disappearing from sight, leaving Wan Yu with an embarrassed and speechless expression.

Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and quickly realized what was happening, waving his hand and saying:
"It's alright, I have a guild, it doesn't matter whether there's a guardian beast or not, let's open the Immortal Abode first."

He looked at Su Yu and said loudly:
"That immortal abode has already risen and is located at the bottom of the sea, but there are layers of restrictions outside the immortal abode. Can you take advantage of your transformation while you are still alive and go down to break through a few layers?"

Red dragon nods its head:

"Can!"

Turning its head, it plunged into the sea and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Wan Yu and the others immediately followed and plunged into the sea, only to see the seabed below bursting with rosy light, and a huge red dragon coiled on the seabed, spewing a breath that spanned hundreds of kilometers into the seabed.

As the dragon's breath entered the sea, the seabed boiled within ten seconds, and countless divine lightning bolts surged and exploded, instantly turning the surrounding hundreds of kilometers of ocean into a fiery hell. In the blink of an eye, the numerous monsters in this sea area melted into the flames.

Ignoring the raging chaos, the Crimson Dragon plunged into it, quickly passing through this fiery hell that was over ten kilometers wide. Then it triggered the next layer of restrictions, and countless stars appeared in the seawater, like a sky full of stars.

As he entered with the Crimson Dragon, countless stars transformed into meteors and surged forth, instantly engulfing him as if billions of thunderbolts and fires had exploded.

"That's pretty powerful."

This thing can already break through his defenses, dealing over 150,000 damage per second. It's an unstoppable force for ordinary players, and even a rogue immortal wouldn't last long before their defensive magic item is worn down.

As he triggered the devastation, he drew the majority of the enemy's firepower, significantly reducing the pressure on Wan Yu and the others who followed.

But reducing the number of people further is not something that most people can handle, and in the end, only forty or fifty people were able to keep up.

The red dragon descended, breaking through ten layers of restrictions of different attributes in one go. In less than two minutes, it rushed to the seabed and saw a huge lava lake in the distance. The scorching lava was blocked from the sea by an invisible force. Above the lava lake, which was hundreds of kilometers in diameter, hung a radiant immortal mansion. The layers of restrictions were emanating from the immortal mansion.

However, these restrictions have been forcibly broken by the Crimson Dragon and are temporarily ineffective. Each layer of restrictions will need to wait half an hour before they can be restarted.

Su Yu's massive body circled the immortal mansion once, looking towards the distant Wan Yu:

"What to do next?"

Wan Yu looked up and glanced around, then said in a deep voice:

"I possess the Inner Palace Token. As long as the Immortal Palace's defensive restrictions are opened to allow me to enter the Inner Palace, I can use the token to control the Immortal Palace."

"Is that so?"

The red dragon nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Watch me do it."

With a thought, accompanied by a blinding red light, the enormous crimson dragon rapidly shrank and transformed into human form.

In an instant, immense water pressure crashed down, but was instantly repelled by the power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl. Su Yu pointed a finger and shouted:
"Divide the water!"

An invisible force instantly pushed aside the entire immortal abode and the seawater within a radius of more than ten kilometers, leaving everyone terrified.

Ignoring their shock, Su Yu reached out and grabbed the Starry Sky Divine Sword, then activated the Sky-Splitting Technique and slashed down towards the gate of the Immortal Mansion.

An invisible force tore through space, and a gap seven meters high and two meters wide was cleaved open in the crystal-like barrier of the Immortal Abode's gate.

"Hurry in, this crack will only last for ten seconds."

Wan Yu's eyes lit up:
"enough!"

In a flash, he transformed into a streak of light, piercing through the barrier and entering the immortal abode, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Five minutes later, the stream of light that had gathered in front of the immortal mansion transformed into the figure of ten thousand feathers. He said with a smile:
"Success!"

With a wave of his hand, a portal of light appeared in front of the Immortal Abode. He turned around and stepped into the portal.

The group immediately followed and stepped into the portal. In a flash, they found themselves in a spacious hall, where a rich spiritual energy surged with each breath.

"Clap!"

Wanfa clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention and said loudly:

"Now that the Immortal Abode is in my hands, I was supposed to take out six cloud platforms and distribute them according to merit, and those who did not receive one would each receive 2000 gold as a hardship fee."

"But the one who deserves the most credit for opening the mansion this time is Junior Brother Su Yu. He suppressed the guardian beast by himself and helped break all the restrictions to help me enter the immortal mansion. I think it is completely insufficient to give him a cloud platform in light of his contributions and merits."

"I discussed it with Kenshin and Enjuku, and we decided to assign two of the six cloud platforms to him."

This was a decision he made, not a consultation, so he didn't intend to discuss it with them and made the decision directly.

Of course, no one else had the nerve to object, since they hadn't been of much use.

Some people might not understand and ask why they were given four spots when they didn't play any role and were just there for show.
The reason is simple: they just haven't played a significant role yet, but their contributions in discovering the Immortal Abode, competing with other guilds for its ownership, and assisting Su Yu in the arena battles in Zhongyuan City before her arrival are all commendable.

This merit does not refer solely to this battle, so considering all factors, Su Yu can only obtain two cloud platforms.

He certainly wouldn't object to having an extra gimbal.

After a brief discussion among the three disciples, they identified four more individuals to assist them in obtaining the Cloud Platform. They then traded with each of these individuals, paying 2000 gold coins to each, before sending them off to the Immortal Abode.

Ding Lingyu and Ye Xiyi, of course, received no share; each left with 2000 gold coins.

After Wan Yu finished dealing with these matters, he clapped his hands and laughed:

"Alright everyone, come with me to see the Immortal Abode's treasure vault."

Everyone immediately followed with great interest, and Su Yu also looked on with anticipation.

This was also his first time opening a celestial abode, and he was quite interested in the so-called treasures hidden within. Judging from the level of the guardian beast and the specifications of the defensive restrictions, this celestial abode was of a high grade, and the quality of the treasures should be quite good.
