Baby with Daoist Monarch System

After completely confirming it, a smile bloomed on Xu Ran’s face.

”Could it be that if I keep practicing flight without stopping inside the Prisoner Wind, forcibly resisting it, I can improve?!”

Thinking of this, Xu Ran couldn’t help getting excited.

This meant Xu Ran could very quickly raise his Perception of the Prisoner Wind.

In this situation, it wouldn’t be long before Xu Ran successfully cleared the flight speed test.

”Better do a small experiment first, lest I get happy for nothing!”

Right away, Xu Ran stabilized himself, hovering in midair.

Then he moved his feet, starting to stomp step after step, and golden Runes rose continuously beneath his feet.

This time, as the Runes emerged, his footwork speed became faster, quickly forming a brief golden bridge under his feet.

At the same time, Xu Ran’s body began moving up and down through the valley, back and forth; with every movement, his speed increased a bit.

”As expected!”

Suddenly.

Xu Ran stopped his movements, letting himself steadily float high in the air.

”Every movement lets me adapt a little more to the valley’s Prisoner Wind; with each bit of adaptation, the Prisoner Wind’s suppression on me decreases by that much!”

At the beginning, Xu Ran hadn’t paid special attention to his own physical condition.

But now he suddenly discovered that the Spiritual Qi in his body that had been suppressed by the Prisoner Wind was being released bit by bit!

Though.

The increase was extremely slow, but now Xu Ran was already able to walk steadily within the valley.

The bald man’s expression turned extremely ugly when he saw Xu Ran’s current state.

Judging from Xu Ran’s performance, he already understood a major secret of the valley.

As long as he could remain in the valley and adapt to this ”desert,” his speed would grow faster and faster.

”Senior Brother, what is Xu Ran doing?”

The little junior sister, who was watching Xu Ran’s three-man trial group from outside, started discussing again at this moment.

”What is Xu Ran doing? Why isn’t he conserving the Spiritual Qi in his body, but instead letting it pour out on such a large scale?!”

The little junior sister really couldn’t figure it out.

He had finally found a suitable, convenient spot that allowed him to quickly adapt to the valley’s Prisoner Wind.

And yet.

He wouldn’t stay with that nice dead tree and insisted on running off somewhere else.

Now it’s over!

At this moment the little junior sister was already praying for Xu Ran.

The second senior brother was likewise full of confusion in his heart.

So he could only judge whether this approach was correct or not by observing the changes in Xu Ran’s physical condition!

”Eh—”

Suddenly, it was as if the second senior brother had discovered something.

”His speed has become faster?!”

That’s right, faster!

This didn’t fit common sense!

Originally, under the suppression of the valley’s Prisoner Wind, his speed hadn’t been fast.

But right now, compared with his initial speed, it wasn’t even on the same level!

Like heaven and earth apart!~

”Senior Brother, what does this mean?”

The second senior brother immediately turned to ask the senior brother face-to-face.

The senior brother wasn’t in a hurry; he just stared quietly at Xu Ran.

”Hm?!”

Suddenly.

His gaze fell to Xu Ran’s legs.

He saw Xu Ran’s legs looking even more bursting with Power.

And his speed was also much faster than before.

”This is...”

For a moment.

Seeing this scene, the senior brother began to ponder carefully.

At that instant, it was as if he had seized upon the crux of the matter.

”’Overlapping Wave Slash’?”

Staring at Xu Ran’s familiar leg movements, the senior brother voiced his doubt aloud.

”Overlapping Wave Slash?”

”Overlapping Wave Slash?”

The second senior brother and little junior sister spoke in unison.

These three words were something they hadn’t expected.

”Senior Brother, isn’t ’Overlapping Wave Slash’ the Sword Technique that Xu Ran created himself? What does this flight speed trial have to do with Overlapping Wave Slash?”

The little junior sister fired off three questions in a row; this situation really was a bit strange.

Even though the words came from the senior brother, she still couldn’t help but question them.

Hearing the little junior sister’s doubts, the senior brother immediately nodded.

”That’s right, its nature is actually quite similar to ’Overlapping Wave Slash’!”

”By continuously stomping with both legs, he stacks Power together, thereby creating a special effect where one plus one is greater than one!”

As the senior brother spoke, there was unconcealed shock in his tone.

Overlapping Wave Slash was a Divine Technique born specifically for Sword Technique, its might extremely terrifying!

Especially with every slash stacking onto the previous one, its Power could reach an incredibly frightening level.

If this were in the Sword Technique trial, Xu Ran achieving such performance would indeed be astonishing.

But.

Right now Xu Ran was in the flight trial—what use was it to bring something from Sword Technique into this?

Just as the two were still confused, the senior brother began to explain.

”I’m not saying Xu Ran is using the Overlapping Wave Slash technique in his Sword Technique!”

”Rather, Xu Ran has taken the ’stacking’ component of Overlapping Wave Slash from his Sword Technique and attached it to his legs, so that with each step he takes, his level of adaptation to the Prisoner Wind increases further!”

With the senior brother’s explanation, the two of them finally understood.

”Xu Ran is really too daring, actually using his own legs to take such a risk in this situation!”

Hearing the senior brother’s words, the little junior sister unconsciously felt a wave of sorrow in her heart!

In order to pass the trial, Xu Ran actually dared to use his own legs as the stake.

If he failed, it was very likely that both legs would be completely ruined.

If he succeeded, then it would become a legend.

Though Xu Ran already was one!

...

At the same time.

As one of only two humans in the Dueling Arena, the bald man knew very clearly just how insane Xu Ran’s current experience was.

Originally he’d wanted to just stand aside and watch the show, so that when Xu Ran’s legs lost control and his blood sprayed out, it wouldn’t splatter on him.

But as time passed, Xu Ran’s aura grew stronger and stronger; only one thing was decreasing—the Prisoner Wind’s suppression on Xu Ran was shrinking nonstop!

Right away, the bald man knew something was wrong.

Then.

Three zhang away from Xu Ran, on a broken cliff, the bald man stood bare-chested; blue Runes on his body were like living things, roaming through his muscles, and every path they traced resonated with the howling Prisoner Wind in the valley!

”I can’t let you keep this up. Even if I have to fight it out, I must stop you!”

The bald man was very clear that if Xu Ran continued like this, what awaited him would definitely be death!

Since the situation was this critical, why not gamble once?

The next moment.

An extremely rapid humming echoed above the valley.

At the same time.

The bald man’s figure abruptly appeared right in front of Xu Ran; the Runes around his body erupted with dazzling blue light, and the valley’s raging winds suddenly condensed into substance, transforming into nine Wind Dragons a hundred meters long that surrounded Xu Ran in the center.

”Remember this, kid!” the bald man’s hoarse voice came from all directions. ”Within the Prisoner Wind, I am the strongest!”

As his words fell, the nine hundred-meter Wind Dragons launched simultaneously, their humming roars echoing through the valley like dragon cries.

Wherever they passed, not a blade of grass remained; even rocks were shaved into powder.

The instant he heard the bald man’s voice, Xu Ran had already stopped moving.

Immediately, golden light burst forth from his body; his entire figure seemed to be bathed in gold, appearing incomparably sacred.

At the same time.

The nine hundred-meter Wind Dragons, carrying flying sand and stones, came roaring in.

The golden light that Xu Ran had just released collided fiercely with the nine Wind Dragons.

However.

The violent explosion one might expect did not occur.

Instead.

The nine hundred-meter Wind Dragons, at the instant they touched the golden light, seemed to be split apart, turning into countless visible Wind Blades.

”Whoosh—”

”Whoosh—”

”Whoosh—”

”Whoosh—”

”...”

In an instant.

The entire valley was filled with the sound of Wind Blades whistling through the air.

Xu Ran, who was being targeted, saw the golden light on his body crack bit by bit in just a short moment.

The Wind Blades pierced through the golden light, cutting Xu Ran’s clothes into strips; his face was also scored with slash marks, and drops of fresh blood flowed down along the cuts.

Before they even reached the ground, the blood turned into a mist of blood.
