1231 Unfathomable Talents
"I have been waiting for this moment for over a thousand years, Tian Yi!" Dragon Goddess Yeyou roared with a delighted smile on her face as she flew towards Tian Yi like an unstoppable meteor.
Tian Yi confronted her with a smile on his face as well.
Upon their collision, their intertwined spiritual energies and auras converged, birthing a cataclysmic detonation of such staggering magnitude that it would eclipse even the most potent nuclear forces known to Earth, rendering them insignificant in comparison.
The force unleashed by their titanic clash was so overwhelming that had it erupted within the very heart of the Divine Heavens, it would have engulfed the entire realm, reducing it to mere cosmic dust in an instant.
"These two crazy fuckers! Are they trying to kill me, too?!" Feng Yuming nearly had a heart attack as she used her fastest movement technique to escape the blast and distance herself from them, barely escaping with the teeth of her skin. If she had been even slightly slower or reacted a second slower, she would've died there and then.
"This is what I've been yearning for! Finally, a worthy opponent whom I can unleash my full might!" Dragon Goddess Yeyou's demeanor seemed to have veered into madness, consumed entirely by the singular obsession of their confrontation.
In fact, she was so absorbed in their fight that she was fighting with the intent to kill Tian Yi.
As for Tian Yi, he too had succumbed to a peculiar trance, his thirst for combat pushed to its utmost limits.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDue to the grand impact of their battle, they were immediately noticed by other experts, humans and beasts alike.
"Holy shit! Isn't that the same human who fought with the Dragon Goddess a little over a thousand years ago?! Has he returned for a rematch?!"
"Impossible! How did he get so strong in so little time?! My cultivation barely advanced since then!"
Many of these individuals were present at their last battle, so they were greatly shocked to see Tian Yi fighting Dragon Goddess Yeyou at her full strength when he was struggling to keep up with her before.
"Are you sure that's the same human from the Great Enlightenment? Surely, it must be a different person."
"No, it's definitely the same person. I have no doubt about it. I still remember their fight a thousand years ago as clear as day."
"Then he must've consumed some heaven-defying treasures. I don't even know of any treasure that could possibly strengthen someone so fast without any side effects."
"He must've consumed a whole sea of Celestial Water or something."
"There's no way that amount of Celestial Water even exists…"
"Could this be a second 'Great Enlightenment'? We need to notify the others as soon as possible!"
The spectators hoped for their fight to last another 200 years, but alas, it ended much sooner than they all had hoped.
After just one short year, Dragon Goddess Yeyou eventually defeated Tian Yi for a second time. Although she wanted to prolong their fight like last time, she couldn't afford to go easy on him or she'd end up being the loser.
"Damn it… I thought I had this one in the bag…" Tian Yi muttered as he floated in the starry sky without his golden aura.
Dragon Goddess Yeyou remained unresponsive, her gaze fixed upon him in a profound silence, her countenance bearing a mysterious and contemplative expression.
Eventually, she approached him and asked, "Are you okay?"
"My body is screaming in pain, but I won't die," he said with a calm smile.
"If you cultivated diligently for another thousand years, you might be able to defeat me."
"I can't wait." He chuckled.
Dragon Goddess Yeyou then turned to look at the spectators and roared at them, "What are you looking at?! If you're not going to fight me next, scram!"
All of the spectators immediately turned tails and fled as their lives depended on it, especially the beasts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"So, do you plan on giving a name to your ridiculous technique?" Dragon Goddess Yeyou suddenly asked Tian Yi.
"I'll think about it once I have full control over it."
"Very well. Then we'll schedule our next fight for when you can make it appear as you will."
"Alright."
Over the next several years, Tian Yi would focus on improving his cultivation, just as Dragon Goddess Yeyou suggested.
During this time, besides cultivating, he would also feed Xingrui his blood once every year, which was more than enough to fill her stomach for another year.
"The rate of his growth is simply terrifying. Not even those with the purest bloodline in the Phoenix Clan would be able to match him in terms of cultivation speed. In fact, they might as well be crawling on the floor while he runs." Feng Yuming sighed.
She had always regarded herself as a superior being, believing herself peerless. Yet, in the presence of Tian Yi and witnessing his unparalleled talents, she found herself humbled and awestruck by his exceptional prowess.
Dragon Goddess Yeyou could only silently agree with Feng Yuming. As a divine being and having never lost a single fight before, she was beginning to anticipate losing for the first time to Tian Yi.
In the blink of an eye, another hundred years have passed.
During this time, Xingrui learned how to transform into a human with the help of Feng Yuming.
Her human form was incredibly beautiful and surprisingly innocent-looking, like a maiden who never left home. She had long, silky silver hair, black eyes, and snow-white skin.
In stark contrast to Dragon Goddess Yeyou, whose presence exuded the divine aura of a goddess, and Feng Yuming, whose aura resonated with the grace of a fairy, Xingrui emitted the distinguished and refined aura of a noble young lady.
As for Tian Yi, he'd entered closed cultivation, and he made sure to collect enough blood to feed Xingrui before going into cultivation. When he emerged from his closed cultivation, he almost didn't recognize Xingrui. In fact, he only recognized her because she was feasting on a bottle of his blood when he saw her, which was the only reason that he even realized her identity.
