#380 - Dragon Arm
Liang Jin was caught off guard and jumped in fright, instinctively tensing his body.
Immediately afterward, he saw the giant snake use its tail to push him away forcefully, clearly not allowing Liang Jin to get close.
Fortunately, this time, the giant snake was only pushing him away; although the action seemed rough, it did not launch an attack, and the force used was within an acceptable range.
After being pushed away, Liang Jin smiled helplessly, and the tension in his heart dissipated.
He understood that since the giant snake had not launched a substantial attack, then the feud between him and the giant snake had now been mostly resolved.
At this moment, the giant snake docilely lowered its body in front of Yu Linglong.
It seemed to think that Yu Linglong was going to travel the sea with it again, so it was ready, planning to carry Yu Linglong away.
And it clearly did not intend to take Liang Jin along.
Yu Linglong naturally could not leave at this moment. She lightly rode on the giant snake's back and gently said to the giant snake:
"Let's go back first."
"You return to your nest, and I will return to the palace."
"You were injured today, so rest well for the night, and we will play again tomorrow."
The giant snake was very obedient. It did not swim towards the sea but steadily carried Yu Linglong, slowly heading towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Dragon Valley nest.
Not far away, the Dragon Taming Elder and a group of Divine Dragon Hall disciples witnessed this scene and could not help but cheer excitedly.
The sect leader being able to control the divine dragon, doesn't this mean that the sect leader is the true Son of Heaven?
Perhaps in the future, the sect leader will also be able to drive the divine dragon to participate in the war, and ultimately realize the grand ambition of restoring the Great Yu!
Immediately, the Dragon Taming Elder and others hurriedly followed Yu Linglong and the giant snake away.
His heart was full of curiosity, and he eagerly wanted to test what level his strength had reached after merging with the giant snake's blood essence.
He flashed, like a black shadow, and quickly plunged into the sea.
The deep sea is an effective place to avoid the prying eyes of others.
The moment he entered the seawater, Liang Jin suddenly felt as if he had been reborn.
A certain gene in his body seemed to be slowly awakening, and these genes were something he had never possessed before.
This wonderful change allowed his body to twist quickly like a nimble snake, swimming freely in the seawater.
The degree of distortion that the human body could not achieve in the past, he could now easily do, exaggerated to the point of being astonishing.
This made his swimming speed four or five times faster than before!
Especially worth mentioning is that he could only stay at the bottom of the sea for three days before, but now, he was sure that even if he stayed at the bottom of the sea for seven or eight days, it would not be a problem at all.
He even felt that the pressure of the seawater on him seemed to have lessened a lot.
Of course, this was not because the seawater pressure had changed, but because his body had become stronger, and his body structure was more adapted to the underwater environment.
In this way, he could dive into the deeper areas of the sea with just his physical body.
"Hmm?"
As the water pressure gradually increased, Liang Jin suddenly noticed an abnormality in his body.
To be precise, this abnormality came from his arms.
His arms had been changing, and at this moment, as the water pressure increased, this change suddenly accelerated in an instant.
Just as Liang Jin was surprised by this, this change came to an abrupt end after reaching a peak.
This meant that the change in his arms had completely ended.
"My body transformation was completed long ago, why has the transformation of these arms continued until now?"
"Could it be because the giant snake's blood essence splashed onto my arms first, making the arms the earliest part to merge with the blood essence, and also the last place to finish merging, so the arms merged particularly fully?"
Liang Jin was full of doubts and couldn't help but look at his arms.
He saw that his arms were slightly thicker than before.
Especially when he exerted force with his arms, faint scale-like patterns appeared on the skin of his arms.
It should be known that he was not in the Hundred Evils Body state at the moment, and scales should not have appeared on his body.
And these arms seemed to be able to produce some kind of wonderful change when exerting strong force.
"I have to cut it to try."
Liang Jin's heart moved, and with a gentle wave of his hand, the Soaring Dragon Sword instantly appeared in his hand.
He stretched out his other palm, tightly grasped the blade of the Soaring Dragon Sword, and then gently slashed.
Only a crisp metallic friction sound was heard spreading in the seawater, but Liang Jin's palm was completely unharmed.
"Ah?"
"It's so strong to this point?!"
Surprised, Liang Jin increased the strength in his hand.
His palm tightly grasped the blade of the Soaring Dragon Sword, and then he pulled hard.
The sharp metallic friction sound spread clearly in the seawater, but Liang Jin's palm was still unscathed.
"Try cutting with a sword!"
He held the Soaring Dragon Sword and slashed at his arm without hesitation.
However, Liang Jin slashed several times, but his arm was still unscathed.
Not to mention bones and muscles, even the skin was not damaged in the slightest.
This scene really shocked Liang Jin.
It should be known that before merging with the divine beast's blood essence, he could only become invulnerable to weapons when he entered the Hundred Evils Body state.
But even so, divine weapons like the Soaring Dragon Sword could still cause damage to him in the Hundred Evils Body state.
But now, he was only in a normal state, and the Soaring Dragon Sword could not hurt him at all.
"No way! Are my arms so strong now?"
"Is it just my arms, or is my whole body so powerful?"
Liang Jin immediately held the Soaring Dragon Sword and tentatively attacked other parts of his body.
Soon, strands of blood slowly drifted away in the water.
Some small wounds appeared on his body, all of which were cut open by the Soaring Dragon Sword.
Obviously, the toughness of the rest of his body was far inferior to that of his arms.
This attempt finally gave Liang Jin an accurate judgment of his physical condition:
"Now my physical strength has indeed increased greatly!"
"The physical strength in the normal state alone is already comparable to the previous state of the Hundred Evils Body."
"And the strength of my arms is far beyond the previous Hundred Evils Body state."
"Now it seems that my arms seem to be a level higher than other parts of my body."
Liang Jin was overjoyed. After putting away the Soaring Dragon Sword, he replaced it with the Blood Saber, Golden Snake Sword, Dragon Subduing Mace and other divine weapons, and launched an attack on his arm.
However, his arm was still unharmed.
This series of experiments filled Liang Jin with confidence:
“Now, catching blades barehanded will be child's play. Even catching divine weapons and sharp blades barehanded is nothing for me.”
“By the way… doesn't this effect seem a bit like the legendary Qilin Arm?”
The newest novels are first published on 69shu吧!
The Qilin Arm was a special arm from the novels Liang Jin had read in his previous life. It was forged by pouring Qilin blood onto the arm, making it resistant to both heat and cold, and impervious to swords and spears.
Even the protagonist in his previous life's novels only had one Qilin Arm.
But now, Liang Jin actually possessed two arms with similar effects!
“Something forged with Qilin blood is called a Qilin Arm.”
“Mine is forged with giant serpent blood, so should it be called a Giant Serpent Arm? No, that name really doesn't sound good.”
“Something forged with divine dragon blood should be called a Divine Dragon Arm!”
Liang Jin was clearly very satisfied with the name “Divine Dragon Arm.”
Immediately, Liang Jin's body rapidly expanded and grew larger, entering the Hundred Evils Body state.
He was now eager to feel just how strong he would become after entering the Hundred Evils Body state and unleashing all of his power.
Soon, Liang Jin once again transformed into a giant filled with violent aura.
But this state was now vastly different from before.
The overall outline remained largely unchanged, with his body still densely covered in ink-black scales and his pupils still vertical.
However, some details had undergone tremendous changes.
For example, his body was now a whole circle larger than before.
Previously, Liang Jin's Hundred Evils Body was the appearance of a violent giant with muscles bulging like rocks, clearly a symbol of strength and defense.
Now, his figure began to develop in a slender and well-proportioned direction, gradually presenting a streamlined body shape, as if he had also significantly improved in agility and dexterity.
Especially Liang Jin's arms, which looked particularly thick and strong compared to before. Even his palms no longer looked like human hands, but rather more like majestic dragon claws!
Liang Jin also felt two hard protrusions on the top of his head.
It was as if two horns were about to grow out of his head.
Liang Jin subconsciously touched his head, and then, as if realizing something, hurriedly reached back to touch his buttocks.
Sure enough, a section of tail had grown out of his tailbone!
This tail was now a meter long and was also covered in scales.
However, it didn't look like a dragon tail, but rather retained the appearance of a serpent's tail.
Although the tail was thin and didn't look strong enough, it didn't seem to be able to exert much force at the moment, but it was extremely flexible and could be swayed at will with Liang Jin's thoughts.
“Horns on my head and a tail behind me, am I about to turn into a little dragon man?”
“It seems that this is the effect of merging with the giant serpent's blood essence.”
Before merging with the giant serpent's blood essence, Liang Jin's palms, head, and tailbone had never undergone such changes.
Liang Jin only felt that in the Hundred Evils Body state, he was becoming less and less like a human, as if he was evolving towards some strange and bizarre appearance.
Fortunately, before entering the Hundred Evils Body, his appearance was still normal.
Liang Jin slowly raised his sharp claws, feeling emotional in his heart:
“Although I'm about to become a monster, I can truly feel… that I've become stronger!”
With that, he clenched his claws into fists.
Then, 《Overlord Unloading Armor》 was fully activated!
The Dawn Fist intent also instantly merged into the Divine Dragon Arm!
Immediately afterward, his huge fist, with the momentum of destroying the heavens and extinguishing the earth, fiercely slammed towards the front!
“Rumble rumble rumble!!!!!”
In an instant, the force of Liang Jin's full-strength punch, like a terrifying bomb exploding in the deep sea, surged and spread with overwhelming force.
Wherever the fist force passed, the seawater seemed to be frantically stirred by an invisible giant hand, actually rapidly forming a huge vortex on the seabed.
This vortex was like a terrifying black hole, with a chilling suction force, frantically devouring everything around it.
Around the vortex, those fish that were originally leisurely swimming in the seawater were caught off guard and ruthlessly swept into it by this crazy force.
Their bodies were instantly twisted and deformed under the powerful tearing force, and then torn to pieces, turning into countless tiny fragments and disappearing into the depths of the vortex.
Some larger reefs were not spared either. Under the vortex's powerful suction force, the rocks quickly moved towards the center, and then, under the huge pressure and rotational force, they shattered like glass with a crisp “crack”, with stone chips flying everywhere.
After Liang Jin's fist force containing majestic power slammed into the seabed, the entire seabed seemed to have encountered an earthquake, violently trembling and undulating.
The sand on the seabed was shaken high, like a black dust storm raging on the seabed.
For a time, a large number of rocks collapsed and fell off from the mountains on the seabed. Carrying huge impact force, they separated from the undulating seabed like waves.
These rocks rolled and collided in the seawater, making muffled sounds.
At the same time, the plankton attached to the rocks and the seabed were also shaken off by this sudden vibration.
Like snowflakes flying all over the sky, they continued to spread in the seawater, and the originally clear seawater instantly became turbid.
Under the powerful impact of the fist force, several huge cracks appeared on the seabed.
These cracks were like the mouths of ferocious beasts, spreading all the way from the depths of the seabed.
A large number of bubbles continuously emerged from the cracks, rapidly rising and forming strings of white trails in the seawater, as if the seabed was painfully panting, constantly exhaling its breath.
Standing in this chaos, Liang Jin felt his majestic power, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face:
“The effect of merging with the blood essence of a divine beast is not inferior to Elder Qing Nang's Divine Pill Crimson Blood Body Refining Pill, and it is even stronger!”
“Especially… I can clearly feel that the potential of merging with the blood essence of a divine beast is not like the Crimson Blood Body Refining Pill, which only has a one-time effect. Its effect seems to have the characteristic of growth.”
“As my realm improves or my physical body continues to grow, this effect will also increase, giving me even more powerful strength!”
