I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense

The two Sea Dragons charged fiercely and ferociously, full of intimidating power, relentlessly biting and slamming into Li Xiaobai’s body.

[Attribute Points +8000…]

[Attribute Points +8000…]

[Attribute Points +8000…]

The System’s attribute panel suddenly surged, and Li Xiaobai let the two malicious dragons coil around his body, not moving an inch. The increase in Attribute Points was significant, not something a cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Stage would normally be able to wield.

Truly a genius of the Sea Clan, the power of her Cultivation Technique was indeed impressive.

The surrounding audience stared at the scene on the stage, their eyes almost popping out. It was an explosive sight: two gigantic dragons wriggling over Li Xiaobai’s body, but to no avail. On his face, there even appeared to be a hint of enjoyment.

Such a powerful assault, and it couldn’t even leave a scratch on Li Xiaobai’s body?

This physical body couldn’t possibly be human, could it?

Long Xue’s expression also changed slightly. She had no intention of probing. Facing Li Xiaobai, she had launched her best attack right from the start, even using his arrogance to turn the surroundings into her home ground, but the result was still the same.

This man seemed to be indifferent to any kind of attack, defending against them all with just his physical body.

“Young Master Li’s prowess is astonishing, truly a revelation. I had not expected that there still existed such a marvel on the Immortal Spirit Continent, we have really been frogs at the bottom of a well!”

Long Xue exhaled a turbid breath and spoke slowly.

“Hmm, Lady Long’s skills are also quite remarkable. In this violent current, I can feel an undercurrent of fiery passion. The Sea Dragons wrap around like petals on either side, their power is just right, making one linger and forget to return.”

“It’s invigorating; don’t stop.”

Li Xiaobai’s eyes narrowed slightly, his face a picture of excitement and restlessness.

The audience below was stupefied—the man was not only refusing to defend against Long Xue’s fierce attacks, but he was even teasing her with his words.

The opposite party was the Sea Clan’s princess—did this guy not know the meaning of the word ‘death’?

And to look so supremely comfortable, those unaware of the situation might even think he was enjoying some special service!

One could only wonder what the Sea Clan’s elders would think if they saw this scene; it wasn’t impossible that it could provoke a major catastrophe, was it?

“Hehe, so Young Master Li fancies this. Well then, this lady will respectfully comply!”

A chill enveloped Long Xue’s body, a bone-piercing cold air swirling around her, as a layer of pale golden light flickered. In the void, a colossal dragon-shaped phantom appeared, its golden scales shimmering brightly, its scarlet eyes indifferently observing the people below, as if looking down on all beings.

At the same time, everyone could clearly see that Long Xue’s face was also covered in dragon scales, just like when she had gone berserk in the Linglong Pagoda.

However, standing on the platform, Li Xiaobai could see even more clearly that as the woman’s body was covered in scales, her figure began to slowly expand.

The exquisite face twisted at an extremely terrifying speed, and her crown was jagged, with crimson eyes. Her bones were rapidly undergoing metamorphosis too, as her slender and straight jade legs disappeared, transforming into a long tail covered with steel dragon scales, slicing through space and emitting a piercing buzzing noise.

In just a few breaths of time, the once delicate and beautiful woman had completely turned into a ferocious demonic beast with fierce light in her eyes.

“She’s revealing her true form, huh? Is this what a dragon looks like? Having lived on the Immortal Spirit Continent for so long, this is actually my first time seeing a demonic beast with the true dragon bloodline!”

Li Xiaobai looked up at the towering huge figure before him, his eyes filled with shock and admiration.

The dragon that Long Xue had transformed into was a bit different from what he had imagined; it was not the legendary Golden Dragon with the aura of a king but rather a vicious dragon with fierce and brutal light in its eyes.

Merely making eye contact with it, one could feel that cold and evil aura. It seemed that the blood of the Dragon Race in her veins was not the purest. It was probably more of the Sea Dragon bloodline.

“Roar!”

In the void, the Primordial Spirit Phantom of the dragon echoed the True Dragon Body of Long Xue, with fighting spirit reaching the skies.

“Dragon Spirit Subduing Heaven!”

The giant dragon let out a long roar to the sky, as the Primordial Spirit Phantom evolved the power of the Heavenly Dao Punishment Law, slowly shrinking and merging into Long Xue’s glabella.

The power of the Heavenly Dao Punishment Law, commonly known as Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, is a force of utmost firmness and positivity. With the support of Primordial Spirit Power, the aura around Long Xue began to surge.

“Immortal Long actually possesses such strength!”

“This level of strength has completely left us in the dust. As fellow cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, the gap between us is this vast!”

“Is this Immortal Long’s true form? Unexpectedly, the gentle Immortal Long usually has such a fierce side!”

“That’s only natural; after all, she is a member of the Dragon Race, and moreover, she is from the direct lineage of the Old Dragon King. It is only normal for her to have such strength.”

“With such an imposing manner, I would believe it if you told me she is in the Mahayana Realm. We are too far behind, and it’s laughable that I once naively thought that I could compete with her at the tea party!”

All the scions of the families below had looks of panic in their eyes and rapidly retreated. The scene before them was too shocking.

After Long Xue showed her true form, they didn’t even have the confidence to withstand the repercussions of the fight between the two sides, such was the despair and chilling strength of the other party.

“Is… is this her true strength? Was she only playing when she was on stage with me before, such that it doesn’t even count as a warm-up?”

Situ Guixiong’s eyes were wide open in disbelief. He was aware of the significant gap between him and Long Xue, but he only thought that it was a matter of a few realms, and that this gap would gradually narrow as everyone entered the Mahayana Realm.

But today, she had harshly slapped his face with the truth, revealing that all his beliefs were nothing but wishful thinking.

Once the True Dragon Body was deployed, such an intimidating presence made it impossible for one to even muster up the courage to make eye contact. He believed that if he were in Li Xiaobai’s place, there would be no second outcome other than to forfeit and admit defeat.

Recalling his prior conduct in front of Long Xue, Situ Guixiong’s face looked extremely troubled.

How laughable it was that he thought of pursuing her, like a clown bouncing in front of her.

Her tolerance was not due to any affection for him; it was simply because they were on completely different levels, belonging to different worlds altogether.

“The clown turns out to be me!”
