Supreme Dragon Lord Chapter 337: Must become stronger!

Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Must beco stronger!

The surroundings fell into a deathly silence, so quiet one could hear a pin drop.

Long Chen lay on the ground for a long mont before slowly sitting up. Looking at the Snake Gallbladder in his hand, he swallowed it without hesitation.

Instantly, a warm and formidable power surged through his body. A flash of shock went through Long Chen as he felt this imnse force; he hadn’t expected the Snake Gallbladder to contain such power. Then again, considering the giant snake’s size, it had likely lived for over a hundred years and developed so level of sentience. It was simply unfortunate that it had provoked him, otherwise it wouldn’t have t such a sorry fate.

Long Chen had learned of the gallbladder’s properties before he erged from the snake’s body, which was why he chose to extract it instead of destroying it. He had only consud it with a "let’s see what happens" attitude, not expecting such a pleasant surprise.

He allowed no delay, imdiately settling his mind. He began to use the power within the Snake Gallbladder to harmonize the energy in his body and fully refine its strength.

「」

A day passed in the blink of an eye. After a full day of healing, color had returned to Long Chen’s face, and his severe internal injuries were fully healed. Not only that, but he also felt the strength in his body growing continuously, showing no signs of stopping.

He raised an eyebrow in pleasant surprise. This feeling was all too familiar—it was the sign of an imminent breakthrough.

He had fought several fierce battles in succession, unleashing his full arsenal of techniques and strength each ti, only to be severely injured afterward. Now, thanks to the Snake Gallbladder, not only had his injuries healed, but he was also on the verge of a breakthrough. After so many trials and tribulations, he could finally reap so reward.

Anticipation filled him, and he grew curious if this advancent would be another multi-level leap like the ones before. Pushing the thought from his mind, he imrsed himself in his cultivation.

Gradually, the power within Long Chen’s body accumulated, growing more imnse. He could distinctly feel himself touching the bottleneck; with just a little more effort, he could seize this chance to break through. And so, Long Chen sat cross-legged, continuing to amass the battle qi within his body.

This process lasted for another hour, his heart remaining utterly calm throughout. He knew haste makes waste, so he didn’t rush the breakthrough, but instead focused on making thorough preparations. Finally, once he was fully prepared, he gathered all his battle qi and charged the bottleneck.

A muffled sound emanated from within his body as the bottleneck instantly shattered!

BOOM!

A powerful aura erupted from Long Chen, filling the area with imnse pressure. Even space itself seed to distort. At this mont, Long Chen’s realm had advanced from the Seventh Layer of the War Sect Realm to the Eighth Layer of the War Sect Realm.

After breaking through, he didn’t stop. He continued to gather his battle qi, wanting to see if he could break through yet again. He would briefly converge his battle qi before slowly releasing it, allowing the energy to circulate through his body. He repeated this process several tis to stabilize his foundation.

Once he felt his battle qi strengthen again, he gathered it all once more, hoping to shatter the barrier of his current realm. Unfortunately, the outco was not what he had hoped for. When he put his full effort into breaking through to the Ninth Layer of the War Sect Realm, he found himself unable to overco the barrier. He had hit a bottleneck that, for the mont, he could not breach no matter how much battle qi he gathered.

For Long Chen, however, this bottleneck was rely a temporary phase. Forced to accept the situation, he gave up on trying to break through to the Ninth Layer of the War Sect Realm. Instead, he cald his mind and focused on solidifying his strength at the Eighth Layer of the War Sect Realm.

Half an hour later, Long Chen let out a long, murky breath, feeling much more relaxed. His realm had now stabilized at the peak of the Eighth Layer of the War Sect Realm. He was another step closer to the War King Realm. Once he reached that realm, he would be able to refine the Ancestral Dragon King’s Blood and repair Long Dou’s Emperor ridians.

Having successfully broken through, Long Chen stopped cultivating, but he was not satisfied. He wanted to beco even stronger! Beyond advancing his realm, he needed to enhance his combat power. The Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique, the Divine Demon Ancestral Dragon Formula, and the Coiling Dragon Seal—he had to spend more ti refining these Cultivation Technique Secret Skills that could drastically increase his fighting ability. As long as his combat power improved, he could at least put up a fight against any formidable foe, rather than ending up in such a pathetic state.

He refused to repeat the recent experience of being unable to protect the woman by his side. From now on, he had to be in control of the outco.

Just then, Long Chen sensed several powerful auras approaching. His expression tightened as he imdiately activated his Divine Demon Eye and looked in their direction. To his surprise, the powerful auras belonged not to humans, but to nearby Demon Beasts.

Why are all these Demon Beasts suddenly heading for ? Long Chen wondered. He quickly figured it out, however. The Demon Beasts had been drawn by the pungent stench of blood from the giant snake’s carcass. These creatures were particularly sensitive to the sll of blood, and the sheer volu that had spilled from the giant snake filled the air with a sickening, tallic scent.

Seeing the Demon Beasts converging on his position, Long Chen decided not to get entangled with them. He got to his feet and headed away from Xuanyue Valley.

After leaving the area, he took out the paper crane Cai Qing had given him, but found no new ssages. His eyes dimd. It seed Chu Lingjun had neither returned to the mountaintop cottage nor visited the teahouse.

Long Chen sighed, his gaze growing distant. Where on earth are you?
