Over there, Ya Zi was yelling again: "Who's next?"
Ding Mo stepped forward and bowed, saying, "It is I, the junior."
Ya Zi, of course, didn't take Ding Mo seriously either.
To Ya Zi, this group of humans were like tiny insects. The only difference between Long Yi, who had just fought, and its current opponent, Ding Mo, was that one used a knife and the other a sword.
However, it is naturally warlike, and although its opponent was somewhat weak, it felt a little regretful. But it also cherishes the rare opportunity to fight against humans.
Meanwhile, Ding Mo, wielding the Dragon's Roar sword, engaged Ya Zi in battle. After exchanging a few blows with him, Ya Zi became excited—it realized that this swordsman was quite interesting, unlike the other weaklings.
Ya Zi became interested and naturally became more focused, unleashing even fiercer and more powerful attacks.
Long Yi had just taken the high-grade healing pill given to him by Long Quan and was already much better. Therefore, he anxiously turned his gaze to the man and the dragon prince who were currently fighting.
After watching for a while, Long Yi thought with shame, "I am no match for Ding Mo!"
Back in the Illusionary Realm, when the Treasure-Seeking Rat faced off against Ding Mo, he lost and felt resentful. After returning, his state of mind was affected, and he dropped two minor realms in succession.
Now it seems Ding Mo is an unparalleled genius; just look at how he fought Ya Zi for so long without losing ground. How could I possibly presume to compare myself to him?
While Long Yi was struggling here, the battle between the man and the dragon had already been decided.
After Ding Mo and Ya Zi had exchanged no less than a thousand blows, Ya Zi suddenly charged forward and used his dragon horn to send Ding Mo flying.
Ding Mo used this "force" to fly behind Ya Zi—a blind spot that Ya Zi wouldn't notice even if he turned his head.
When Yazi saw Ding Mo fly behind it, its heart skipped a beat, and it quickly turned around to fight back.
Unfortunately, due to his physical limitations, he couldn't find Ding Mo immediately.
Just as it was about to go berserk with rage, Ding Mo suddenly appeared from its blind spot, straddled Ya Zi's shoulder, and pressed the Dragon Roar Sword against Ya Zi's throat.
Ya Zi stood there, stunned.
Ding Mo quickly jumped down, sheathed his sword, and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
The reason Yazi was shocked was because it was almost invincible. Especially when it was guarding this pagoda, no human had ever been able to defeat it. Now that it had come to its senses, instead of being angry, it laughed happily: "Good, good, good! That was satisfying! You win this round."
Longquan and the others, along with Lin Zhifeng, were overjoyed. Ding Mo, however, remained calm, saying, "Senior was suppressed by the pagoda; otherwise, I would not be your match."
Ya Zi said, "I haven't had enough yet. Would you like to play another round with me?"
Ding Mo said, "This junior will gladly accompany you!"
Longquan and the others were overjoyed to hear this, as they were just worried about not being able to find a third person to fight against Yazi!
But then Yazi stood up and transformed into a dragon-headed human. The proportions of the dragon head were also just right, no longer the top-heavy shape.
He even pulled out a long sword, clearly intending to have a proper duel with Ding Mo.
The hopes that Longquan and others had rekindled have sunk to rock bottom once again.
Only Lin Zhifeng remained calm and reassured everyone with a smile: "It's alright, we've got this one under control."
Longquan and the others stared at Lin Zhifeng as if he were an idiot, thinking to themselves, "You really have no self-awareness whatsoever. That's a Yazi! Even if Ding Mo from your Sword Sect is a genius, can he possibly defeat a divine beast?"
Lin Zhifeng didn't explain, but simply raised his chin and said, "You'll see when you read on."
Lin Zhifeng knew that even if they didn't win a single round, Ya Zi would eventually let them pass, though he would make things difficult for them and give them a good beating. Now that Ding Mo had had his fill of fighting with him, he probably wouldn't make things difficult and would let them pass without any trouble.
The two resumed their battle, the clash of swords dazzling the onlookers.
Lin Zhifeng, the sword cultivator, thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle, and the others were filled with admiration.
After exchanging over a thousand blows, Ya Zi finally broke free from the fray and laughed loudly, "Very good! I never imagined that humans could have such a talent as you! Would you like to come with me to the heavens? You can stay in my cave, and we can spar day and night."
Lin Zhifeng's lips twitched: So Ya Zi and Qiu Niu are brothers after all; their excuses are exactly the same. Are the dragons so casual? They just take someone to heaven whenever they want? If that's the case, why are we still diligently cultivating and risking our lives to ascend? We might as well all take shortcuts.
Ding Mo had already declined Ya Zi's offer, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I know that my abilities are far from sufficient. I want to gain more experience and rely on my own strength to ascend in the future. If I am fortunate enough to succeed in the future, it will not be too late to bother you again, senior."
Ya Zi was not annoyed by this, but instead liked Ding Mo even more. He said, "Good! You have ambition, I like it! Then it's settled. You should go back and work hard to ascend to the top and come find me as soon as possible."
Ding Mo said, "Senior, rest assured, I will certainly live up to your expectations."
Ya Zi laughed and sheathed his longsword. Then he reached out to Ding Mo and said, "Your sword is quite nice too. May I take a look?"
Ding Mo hurriedly presented the dragon's roar with both hands.
Ya Zi took the Dragon's Roar sword, twirled it in his hand, and then used the Dragon's Roar sword to perform a set of sword techniques.
The Dragon's Roar sword, originally possessed by a master, was perfectly suited to Ya Zi's hands. With each swing of Ya Zi's sword, it emitted high-pitched sword cries reminiscent of a dragon's roar.
After finishing his dance, Ya Zi sheathed his sword, gently stroking the blade of the Dragon's Roar with his fingers, and praised, "Indeed, it is a rare and excellent sword!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and cast a spell, sealing a wisp of dragon energy within the Dragon Roar Sword.
The Dragon Roar Sword, imbued with dragon energy, let out a high-pitched cry, followed by a burst of golden light.
The light was so blinding that everyone quickly turned away. When they looked at the Dragon Roar Sword again, they saw that the golden light had dissipated and it had returned to its original form.
No, it's different from before. A dragon head pattern clearly appears at the junction of the hilt and the blade of the Dragon Roar Sword.
Ding Mo respectfully took the Dragon Roar Sword from Ya Zi's hand and found that not only had its appearance changed, but its attributes had also changed—it had gained an additional 100% attack power bonus.
Even Ding Mo, who was usually unswayed by emotions, couldn't help but be moved this time.
He held the sword with both hands, bowed and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, senior!"
Ya Zi was no longer the same person she was when they first met. She waved her hand and said, "It's fate that we are connected."
Longquan and the others were dumbfounded, and Lin Zhifeng was also extremely envious. This was a spirit sword modified by Lord Yazi! He was so jealous!
Lin Zhifeng couldn't hold back any longer and said with a fawning smile, "Senior, could you please upgrade my sword as well? Although my cultivation is not as good as Uncle Ding Mo's, my spirit sword is not bad."
