The Story Never Ends

Chapter 136 - The Second Move Of The Halberd: Coiling Dragon

"I've arrived." Davion stood at the peak of the Core Disciples Peak and looked at the beautiful courtyard a certain distance away from him.

"I don't know what she wants from me. Is it about the task that she was mentioning or something else?" He was feeling quite nervous.

"Wew, let's not think too much. I can't escape anyways." He muttered and slowly proceeded forward.

He saw the same field which was filled with varieties of spiritual flowers and herbs. They were releasing a fragrant aura, and he felt refreshed when he neared them.

"My courtyard is really garbage compared to it." He shook his head and continued walking.

But suddenly, he sensed a dangerous aura coming from the ground with his Mind-Eye. Thus, he immediately jumped back.

"Bang"

A bolt of lightning emerged and exploded in the air.

"What is happ…" before he could finish his sentence, Ryland on his shoulder roared and pointed his claw behind him. So, he turned back and saw many of them emerging from the ground.

"Damn, it's too dangerous here. I should leave." He made up his mind and tried to escape from here.

"Swish..swish.." he evaded every single one of them and used his Thunder Stomp Spell to propel himself towards the exit. He was so fast right now that he reached there in the blink of an eye.

However, he was meant to be disappointed as the defensive formation finally kicked in. A circular dome covered the whole peak and nothing could break free from it.

"Shit, what does she want?" Davion cursed as he couldn't understand why she was playing with him here. With her cultivation base couldn't she have easily caught him and interrogated him?

While he was thinking, the whole ground started to shine and he felt a far more terrifying aura brewing inside.

"I can't even stay on the ground now." He thought and ordered, "Ryland, transform. We are flying."

Ryland understood it and transformed straight away. Seeing this, Davion leaped on his back and Ryland took off into the air.

Then he gazed below and saw a sea of lightning gathering with a whirlpool in the middle. The whirlpool became larger and larger and slowly a huge snake came out of it. Although it was completely made of lightning, the scales on its body and how its pupils were moving made it look completely realistic. The snake then gazed at them and hissed loudly.

Ryland panicked after seeing this and was already shaking due to fear. If not for Davion on his back, he would have already tried to break past the dome.

Davion took out his halberd and had a solemn look on his face, "Does she want to test my strength?"

He could only think of this reason as he felt the energy coming out of this snake similar to Aiden. It seemed like she wanted to see with her own eyes whether he was capable of slaying a middle-stage devil king or not.

So, he at once channeled his spiritual energy into his halberd and yelled "Coiling Dragon"

Indeed, he was going to use the second ability of his halberd. After reaching level 30, he had almost enough spiritual energy to use it. Since she wanted to test him, Davion also thought the same. Why not test his new ability too?

A tri-colored aura was released from his halberd which then took the shape of a huge dragon that was as big as the snake. Even though this dragon looked realistic, it was completely different from all the dragons that he had ever seen. It had tricolored scales with a long and thin body like that of a snake. But with additional claws, feet, and two horns on its head.

"This dragon looks like an eastern dragon that I used to hear about in my previous world." he was surprised.

Ryland had both of his mouths wide open after catching sight of it. He was thinking about when he could become stronger and bigger like it.

The snake felt threatened when he saw it. As a result, it immediately flew upwards and attacked it.

"Go." Davion swung his halberd and the dragon dived down as he had ordered.

The snake tried to bite the dragon but the dragon used its sharp claws to grip its neck. Then it coiled around its body and held it tightly. The snake tried to free itself but it was unsuccessful. Not only that, the snake was becoming smaller as time passed and the dragon was becoming bigger. It appeared that the dragon could absorb others' energy and become powerful.

"Good!" Davion was full of smiles when he saw this. If he could use this move when fighting Aiden then he could have defeated his phantom easily. He still remembered how his phoenix got beaten up that time. If he hadn't chosen to blow it up then, he might have died.

Inside the courtyard, a beautiful lady was observing this scene carefully.

"So, it seems that you were indeed capable. But I have to put it to an end now or else my field would get destroyed here."

She disappeared from her place and appeared in the air behind Davion. Without him noticing, she waved her hands and both the snake and the dragon disappeared as if nothing had happened there.

"Eh! What happened?" Davion exclaimed. Ryland was also looking left and right in amazement.

"It looks like she has intervened." He put back his halberd and thought.

"Hehe, I should have impressed her with this move," Davion chuckled but suddenly he heard a calm voice coming from behind.

"Is that so?"

Davion had beads of sweat on his forehead when he heard this. He recognized who it was. Yet, before he could react, he was smashed down to the ground with Ryland.

"BOOM"

***

"Ah! Where am I?" Davion glanced around and found himself on a bed in a well-decorated room. He also saw Ryland sleeping on the floor.

"Damn, now I remember what had happened." He recalled his memories and smiled wryly. Who could have thought that he would not be able to receive a single blow from her?

"I'm still very far away from the Domain Realm," he sighed as all his happiness after leveling up to 30 disappeared in an instant.

Then he stood up and left the room. After coming out, he saw a lady watering her spiritual herbs. He didn't disturb her and just watched it quietly.

Only after a few minutes, did she eventually stop. Then she looked at him and said, "You've woken up."

"Greetings Elder," he bowed.

"Humm" She nodded and asked, "Do you know why I called you here?"

Davion shook his head innocently.

"You really know how to act, don't you?" She smiled and approached him.

"Is it for a task that you've mentioned previously?" He thought for a while and replied.

"Yeah, it is one of the reasons. But before that tell me how you hid your cultivation base? I can't even see it." This was the thing that was bugging her the whole time.

She tried to see through him with her Divine Sense when he had passed out but she became unsuccessful again. He looked like a normal person devoid of any cultivation base. If the other elders in the sect knew about it then they would certainly become shell-shocked.

It was because she possessed the strongest soul among all of them including the Sect Master. Since the divine sense improves along with the soul, she was considered the strongest in this subject. Yet, she still couldn't find anything about him. Thus, this would create a great sensation in the Sect.

"I think it is due to my Holy Physique," Davion proudly said. This was the reason he had thought of.

She looked at him suspiciously when he answered this. He saw this and explained about the incident in the Sect Selection Ceremony about how the orb could have been damaged due to the cloaked man of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"Oh! I had heard about this incident. It appears as what you said is true." Even if he was lying there was nothing she could do to confirm that he had a holy physique. This was due to the fact that the strange orb could only be found in the four major sects. To check one's talent one had to inspect their creation energy which was impossible for other sects except them.

"Maybe this is also why he possesses the dual nature of Qi and could become younger after breaking through..." She felt that he was telling the truth after thinking about these things as everything made sense. Indeed, she had clearly sensed what those tri-colored energies were with her Divine Sense.

"Ok! I…"

When she was about to say something, all of a sudden, an explosion was heard from inside the courtyard.

"Bang"

"This.." Davion glanced in that direction and used his Mind-Eye. He sensed an irregular breath coming from inside.

"Leyla!"

He saw Elder Liliana crying out and disappearing from his vision.
