A glint of light flashed in the old man's eyes, and he sneered, "However, I do have a code name that you can know. Those who know me call me Jade Dragon Immortal!"
"No, with your appearance, how did those people associate you with the pretentious-sounding code name 'Jade Dragon'?" Chen Yuze frowned and immediately felt that the old man was lying.
The next second, she blushed and explained shyly, "They call me Jade Dragon Master, but it's just because my equipment can't lock in body hair other than head hair~~"
"vomit--"
Chen Yuze almost threw up his breakfast.
Damn it, are there really people with brain damage who find the combination of an old geezer and a white tiger interesting?
No longer intending to waste any more words with the old man who had suddenly disgusted him, Chen Yuze immediately began to vigorously activate the spiritual power within his body.
A vast and chaotic spiritual energy instantly enveloped the entire mountaintop.
At the same time, Chen Yuze's lazy and leisurely demeanor also vanished completely.
Instead, there is a strange and unpredictable aura that is hard to fathom.
On the other side, looking at Chen Yuze, whose temperament had changed drastically, Master Yulong felt a chill run down his spine.
He knew that Chen Yuze was about to get serious with him.
To be honest, Master Yulong was quite wary of this young man.
Firstly, this young man's background is so mysterious it's almost unbelievable. Even the organization behind Jade Dragon Master hasn't been able to fully grasp his information.
Secondly, this young man's spiritual power is simply too strange.
Generally, cultivators, because they focus on cultivating a single path, tend to have relatively clean and pure spiritual energy.
Although Chen Yuze's spiritual power was also clean, it was far from being 'pure'.
His spiritual energy composition is extremely complex. Just now, Master Yulong sensed several completely different spiritual energy properties, some of which were even completely incompatible.
Generally speaking, if a person's spiritual energy is this complex, these different types of spiritual energy will inevitably clash. Cultivators who cannot withstand such a surge of spiritual energy will eventually explode and die.
What puzzled Master Yulong was that Chen Yuze's spiritual energy was clearly incredibly complex, yet these different types of spiritual energy 'coexisted' in an unusually harmonious way.
To use a somewhat inappropriate analogy.
If Chen Yuze were a stunningly beautiful woman, then all the different types of spiritual energy surrounding him would be his devoted suitors, willing to fall at his feet. Even more outrageous, to ensure Chen Yuze's daily happiness, these suitors wouldn't even object to sharing his presence with other women.
Thus, Master Yulong came to this conclusion.
—This young man must have used some special means to tame these completely different spiritual energies into loyal lapdogs!
Of course, these are all just Yulong Zhenren's own guesses and judgments.
In fact, the reason why Chen Yuze's spiritual power is so complex is entirely because he has learned too many innate talents from the demon beasts.
"At times like these, it's always wiser to test the waters first."
Thinking this, Master Yulong gradually activated the spiritual power within his body.
Immediately afterwards, countless tiny arcs of electricity began to dance on his body surface.
That's right, the nature of Jade Dragon Immortal's spiritual power is lightning!
Even in the entire cultivation world, the number of people with lightning spiritual roots is extremely rare; it's no exaggeration to say that they are one in ten thousand.
It was precisely because of this that the young Jade Dragon Master was able to join a decent sect and diligently learn a large number of lightning spells.
"Take this, kid, from my Thunderstorm Sword!"
With a loud shout from Jade Dragon Immortal, countless arcs of electricity on his body formed six sharp swords made of lightning around him.
With a gentle flick of his finger, Master Yulong caused the six lightning blades to seem to gain self-awareness and launch attacks on Chen Yuze along their own distinct trajectories.
"It's quite scary."
Faced with Jade Dragon Master's probing attack, Chen Yuze was actually quite unsure of himself.
Although he would occasionally spar with his daughters, that was only under the premise that the girls had lowered their cultivation levels and that Chen Yuze possessed a large number of innate talents.
Despite his current cultivation level, Chen Yuze is not far behind Yulong Zhenren.
But don't forget, Chen Yuze himself doesn't possess any magic or supernatural powers.
With his innate talent sealed by the demon-sealing formation, he really didn't have many means of combat.
However, just as Chen Yuze was racking his brains trying to figure out what method to use to fight the enemy, a system notification suddenly rang in his mind:
[Ding! Host, please feel free to use your innate talent!]
"it is good!"
With absolute trust in the system, Chen Yuze immediately stopped thinking and, following the method he used when sparring with the girls, tried to use one of his many innate talents.
The next second, several incredibly thick earthen walls rose from the ground, firmly neutralizing the Thunderstorm Sword's attack.
This move, "Earth-Shaking Manipulation," was something Chen Yuze learned from a bull demon from Thunder Mountain about half a year ago when he was healing the demon.
Although Chen Yuze didn't take the "Earth-Shaking and Soil-Manipulating" supernatural power too seriously at the time, he unexpectedly discovered that the move was exceptionally effective during his practice sessions with the girls.
Thanks to this, Chen Yuze also had the opportunity to re-evaluate all the companion talents he had previously learned. In subsequent sparring sessions with the girls, he further developed the companion talents that were more suitable for combat.
This is why, even seasoned girls like Moxi and Meiting, with equal cultivation levels, found Chen Yuze to be exceptionally troublesome.
After all, nobody knows what tricks this guy will pull next.
For example, when Mei Ting first sparred with Chen Yuze, he never used the same move twice in that sparring session.
"Earth-based magic?"
It was probably because Chen Yuze used his internal spiritual power when he used his innate talent that Master Yulong did not realize that it was not a so-called supernatural power or magic.
On the surface, Chen Yuze responded with an awkward yet polite smile. However, in his mind, he was already urgently inquiring about his situation with the system.
"System, shouldn't this innate talent have been sealed by that demon-sealing formation? How come I was still able to use it just now?"
As is widely known, the innate talents of demonic beasts all originate from the demonic energy flowing within them.
Without exception, all of them possess the blood of a saint. The principle of the Demon-Sealing Array is based on the blood of a saint at the array's core, supplemented by various spells within the array to disperse diluted saint blood into the air. Once a demon beast inhales air mixed with saint blood, the connection between its consciousness and bloodline is temporarily disrupted, preventing its innate talents from activating smoothly.
"Simply put, it's because they inhaled the cleansed blood of a saint that their original bloodline was contaminated?"
[Correct. However, demonic beasts possess extremely strong self-purification abilities, therefore, the demon-sealing formation cannot permanently affect them. Only while the formation is in operation can it temporarily seal the demonic beast's innate talents.]
"But what does that have to do with my ability to use my innate talent?"
[Because the host's innate talent does not originate from the blood of a demon beast.]
"So it seems that I do need to unlock the Mountain and Sea Compendium corresponding to the monsters before I can use their innate talents."
[That's right, the host's innate talent originates from the "Illustrated Compendium of Mountains and Seas." And the "Illustrated Compendium of Mountains and Seas" is a unique creation independent of the world. Therefore, the host's innate supernatural abilities will not be affected by any external interference.]
"understood."
He nodded his chin, and then a confident smile spread across Chen Yuze's face.
Given that their cultivation levels were equal and their innate talents were not affected by the demon-sealing formation, Chen Yuze really didn't think he would lose to this old white tiger.
Meanwhile, while Chen Yuze was talking to the system, Yulong Zhenren, who mistakenly thought Chen Yuze was an earth-elemental cultivator, had already figured out his way to win.
In this world, everything is interconnected and interdependent; there is no such thing as an absolute strongman.
Don't be fooled by the fact that cultivators with lightning spiritual roots often possess extremely powerful spells and supernatural abilities. They are easily defeated when facing earth-based spells or supernatural abilities.
After all, no matter how strong the lightning strike is, it cannot penetrate that solid earth.
Jade Dragon Immortal, who prides himself on being good at "surviving", must have thought of countless ways to deal with cultivators with earth spiritual roots.
For example, at this moment, Master Yulong had already clenched several talismans in his palm.
Without exception, all of these talismans are rain-summoning talismans.
The defensive capabilities of cultivators with earth-elemental roots are indeed far superior to those of cultivators with other elemental roots.
However, as long as the area is filled with rainwater, Master Yulong can use the 'electricity' to bypass Chen Yuze's earthen walls and attack him.
"Kid, you're still too young!"
The talisman was thrown high into the sky, and almost in the blink of an eye, dense dark clouds had already covered the sky above Iris Mountain.
As if victory were already beckoning him, Master Yulong couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Boy, now you'll use your own body to experience just how terrifying lightning magic in the rain really is!"
As Master Yulong finished speaking, a torrential downpour fell from the sky like a cascading waterfall.
At the same time, the spiritual power gathered in Master Yulong's hands condensed into several giant lightning snakes, each over ten feet long, and pounced on Chen Yuze.
To his surprise, Chen Yuze did not summon the thick earthen wall this time.
Instead, she gave him an incredibly bright smile.
"Old man, do you really think your grandpa doesn't know what kind of tricks you're up to?"
The scorching wind evaporated the raindrops that filled the sky.
Immediately afterwards, twelve great suns appeared one after another behind Chen Yuze.
"The Golden Crow's Great Sun Form?! How is this possible?!"
Staring at Chen Yuze with eyes blazing with fury, Master Yulong even immediately began inspecting the demon-sealing formation.
Master Yulong wasn't too surprised that Chen Yuze could use his innate talent. After all, Chen Yuze had used it once before when he was dodging Jin Lie's attack.
What Yulong Zhenren truly couldn't understand was that Chen Yuze had actually used two completely different innate talents!
Moreover, this second innate talent was used while the demon-sealing formation was in operation.
"What? Is this all that scares you?"
Seeing that Master Yulong was already somewhat flustered, Chen Yuze simply shook his head.
A moment later, countless sparks appeared around him.
So, Chen Yuze put on an innocent smile and raised the ball of foxfire in his hand to Master Yulong.
"Heaven-Burning Karmic Fire?! This is impossible!!! This must be an illusion!!!"
"Jin Lie is like that, and so are you. You old folks, when you encounter things you can't understand, do you like to comfort yourselves with illusions?"
Raising an eyebrow, Chen Yuze immediately tossed the ball of karmic fire in his hand into the sky.
It should be understood that the burning power of the Heaven-Burning Karmic Fire is not just an empty name.
The crimson flames instantly obscured the sky, and then, like a firebird spreading its wings, the karmic fire ignited the entire sky!
