Eternal Dragon Emperor Chapter 453 462: Ye Tian Takes Action

Ye Tian's eyes fluttered open. His consciousness was still a blur, and his entire body ached. It wasn't the pain of being beaten, but the unbearable, bloating agony of having too much Energy within him. His only thought was that he had to release it.

Otherwise, his body might just explode. He shot to his feet and whirled around to face Zhang Xinlan.

Although Zhang Xinlan was locked in combat with the skeleton monster, her Divine Sense had been monitoring Ye Tian's every move. When she saw he had woken up, her heart soared with joy.

'If Ye Tian can escape, I can die without any regrets.' Everyone fears death, but when you're dying for soone you love, that fear seems to vanish in an instant.

So many people could have saved themselves, but chose to lay down their lives for love instead. That was precisely how she felt right now.

Ye Tian's mind gradually cleared. He saw Zhang Xinlan, and he also saw the terrifying skeleton monster.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian appeared in front of Zhang Xinlan. His speed was so incredible it stunned the injured woman. She could clearly feel that his power had skyrocketed. He was now on par with her, perhaps even stronger.

The skeleton monster was also startled to see Ye Tian suddenly appear before it. "I was going to finish off this little wench before taking the Dragon Pearl from you, but you've decided to serve yourself up on a silver platter. Fine, I'll just kill you both together!

My body may be in this state, but as long as I can get the Dragon Pearl, all this pain will have been worth it. Kid, are you really a Divine Dragon?"

Ye Tian was baffled by the skeleton monster's words. "Xinlan, how badly are you hurt? Who is this thing? Why is it talking about my Dragon Pearl, and what does it an by 'Divine Dragon'?"

Zhang Xinlan forced a smile. "It's a long story. Let's talk after we deal with him. We can't let him get away. He knows all your secrets, and he's hiding so incredible secrets of his own.

But his power should be at the Seven Veins Realm now. I'm no match for him at all. I don't know about you, but if you can't handle him either, we need to find a way to escape."

"Don't worry. I'm feeling pretty confident right now," Ye Tian said. "All this Energy in my body is killing . This guy will be the perfect test subject! You just rest on the sidelines and check on Ye Bing!"

As he spoke, the Black Glaze Sword appeared in his hand. Energy from his body instantly surged into the blade, which erupted with a dazzling light in the darkness.

"So what if you're a Divine Dragon, kid? I'm here today to be a dragon slayer! Now, let's see just how powerful a Divine Dragon really is!" the skeleton monster snarled.

"You ugly freak! I won't disappoint you! Co and get your death wish!" Ye Tian roared. The sight of Zhang Xinlan's blood made him want to slaughter the creature on the spot, but he had forced himself to listen to what she had to say first.

"Kid, have a taste of my Netherworld Ghost Claw!" The skeleton monster, perhaps enraged by Ye Tian's taunt, let out a hoarse, deafening roar.

"Then today I'll cripple those useless claws of yours! Let's see how tough you really are!" Ye Tian shot back. He swiftly brandished the Black Glaze Sword and unleashed a Gold Slash, sending a blast of Golden Sword Qi hurtling toward the monster.

In response, the skeleton monster unleashed the sa massive Wind Blade it had used against Zhang Xinlan. Instantly, sand flew, stones tumbled, and the sky went dark. The very space around them trembled, threatening to tear open at any mont.

BANG! The Golden Sword Qi and the Wind Blade collided. The resulting shockwave sent both Ye Tian and the skeleton monster flying back several dozen ters before they could regain their footing.

This hadn't happened when Zhang Xinlan had fought the monster. It could only an one thing: Ye Tian's Attack Power was far greater than hers.

This was perhaps also due to the Black Glaze Sword having recovered a third of its power. In this exchange, the two were evenly matched; neither had managed to harm the other.

"Not bad, kid! You've got so skill to block my Netherworld Ghost Claw! Looks like I really underestimated you. But you won't be so lucky next ti. I'll show you my true power!" the skeleton monster declared.

Ye Tian remained silent, quietly observing the terrifying monster. 'I put my all into that last strike and didn't even scratch it. This thing's power is no joke.'

"Ye Tian, don't clash with it head-on. Soone who's taken a Soul Enhancent Potion has Heaven-defying Defense Power. Normal Attack Power won't be able to hurt it at all. You need to stall for ti.

The effects of the Soul Enhancent Potion last for an hour at most. Once it wears off, this thing will be useless. I'm sure you know what I an!" Zhang Xinlan's voice echoed in Ye Tian's mind.

Ye Tian knew she was using a Secret Transmission so the monster wouldn't overhear.

"Got it. You focus on healing! I'll make sure this thing dies a miserable death!" he imdiately sent back.

Then, he turned to the skeleton monster. "So powerful? Then show what you've got. Don't just run your mouth. I can't stand braggarts. Oh, that's right—you're not even a person!"

"You're infuriating !" the skeleton monster roared. Its massive fra began to tremble, emitting an eerie blue light and a terrifying aura.

Suddenly, Ye Tian felt an imnse pressure bearing down on him. It felt like the pressure from a Barrier—a favorite and most effective tactic used by the strong against the weak, capable of crushing an opponent to death.

Ye Tian reacted instantly. The pressure was truly agonizing. He felt as if he couldn't hold on, and his body began to tremble. In an instant, beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.

"How do you like that, kid? This is the Spatial Pressure of a Mid-Seven Veins expert. Let's see how you endure this! There's no way you'll survive this ti!" the skeleton monster bellowed upon seeing Ye Tian's pained expression.

Ye Tian was inwardly shocked. 'So this monster really is at the Seven Veins Realm, and the Middle Stage at that. I wonder how it compares to Elder Qing… but I'm sure Elder Qing is much stronger.'

But the stubborn Ye Tian would never admit defeat. "Ugly freak! So what if you're at the Mid-Seven Veins Realm? Is that sothing to brag about? I can handle this much pressure with my eyes closed! Is that all you've got? I'm not feeling a thing!"

Though he spoke with bravado, only Ye Tian knew the tornt he was in. The Energy inside him had yet to be fully released, and the painful, bloating sensation was still there. Now, with this added pressure, it was like adding insult to injury. He genuinely worried he wouldn't be able to hold on.
