Even those standing on the stage, like Feng Tian and the others, had to continuously wave their arms, fending off the terrible remnants of True Qi.

The elders below the stage once again channeled True Qi to help the other guests withstand the remnants of True Qi, but even they felt the terror of this strike from the aftermath.

"Shatter for me!"

An angry roar rose, Ji Lingtian’s face twisted with ferocity, and he unleashed his full strength without any reservation, smashing apart the Dragon Shadow.

Ye Luo spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flew out, and Ji Lingtian, too, was impacted by the explosive aftermath, stumbling back step by step, his body trembling, and a trickle of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth, indicating he had sustained a minor injury.

"Ye Luo!"

Seeing Ye Luo injured once again, Qin Yuru and several other ladies called out, unable to refrain from rushing forward, but were stopped by Feng Tian, who had stepped down from the stage.

"Don’t go up there, it’s dangerous, don’t make him worry about you all over again," Feng Tian said to them with a deep voice and a helpless expression, knowing that with the four experts of the Yuheng Pavilion around, he could not offer any help to Ye Luo.

"Kid, it seems you really do have some skills, possessing such strong martial techniques and cultivation methods, but sadly, your strength is still lacking, and you are destined to fail," Ji Lingtian said.

Although Ji Lingtian was also injured, his expression was one of happiness as he coldly eyed Ye Luo, who lay on the ground.

"Your True Qi has been exhausted, now I’d like to see what you’ll use to fend off my attack!" said Ji Lingtian as he prepared to once again mobilize his internal strength to finish off Ye Luo.

"Is that so?" Ye Luo’s lips curled into a cold smile, and he suddenly pulled out a white pill and swallowed it directly.

Soon, a formidable True Qi burst forth in his abdomen, coursing through his limbs and the meridians of his entire body, rapidly replenishing the True Qi in his Dantian.

This was indeed the Yellow Rank Seventh Grade Qi Recovery Pill he had obtained in the valley, which could swiftly restore True Qi, but now, he had only a few left.

It seemed he needed to properly refine some Qi Recovery Pills, as such elixirs that quickly replenish True Qi were very useful in battles like these.

However, due to the massive amount of True Qi required by the six meridians within Ye Luo’s body, a single Yellow Rank Seventh Grade Qi Recovery Pill was not enough to fully restore his True Qi, and he had to swallow another.

Instantly, his momentum climbed to its peak, the previously depleted six meridians and his Dantian once again filled with vitality, with True Qi surging through his body like a tumultuous sea, making him feel even stronger than before.

"This..."

Upon witnessing this scene, the martial arts experts present were stunned once again, especially the Saint Realm experts, whose faces underwent a drastic change.

"That’s the Yellow Rank Seventh Grade Qi Recovery Pill!"

The face of Xu Ruobai, the Pavilion Master of the Yuheng Pavilion, once again displayed a deeply moved expression, a hint of astonishment flashed through his eyes as he guessed how Ye Luo could have such a precious elixir.

Cao Wuheng, Feng Tian, along with the people from the three great ancient martial arts families, all looked immensely shocked, naturally recognizing the Qi Recovery Pill that Ye Luo was taking, which could rapidly replenish True Qi.

Although they couldn’t be as certain as Xu Ruobai about the rank of the elixirs, they knew that the grade of these Qi Recovery Pills was definitely not low; otherwise, two pills wouldn’t have restored Ye Luo’s depleted True Qi to its original state, and even more abundantly than before.

Within the Hidden Sects of Huaxia, Qi Recovery Pills were an extremely rare and highly sought-after treasure, coveted by all martial arts experts.

After all, possessing several Qi Recovery Pills during battle was akin to having several extra lives, making the pills naturally very popular.

However, aside from the Elixir Sect, which was a super first-class power in the Hidden Sects, only a few other super first-class powers and some special sects had a few alchemists; other powers, even some of the top first-class ones, might not have a single alchemist.

Therefore, elixirs in the Hidden Sects were exceedingly rare, particularly life-saving ones like the Qi Recovery Pill, which were even scarcer and thus extremely precious.

In the Hidden Sects, ordinary Qi Recovery Pills would be contested by a crowd of martial artists, let alone the Yellow Rank Seventh Grade Qi Recovery Pills in Ye Luo’s hands. Even if it were just a single pill, it could entice even some first-class powers to make a move.

And now, Ye Luo had consumed two pills in one go, which led people to gasp in admiration and further questioned Ye Luo’s identity.

Having a mysterious expert capable of defeating four martial artists of the Saint Realm’s sixth level at his side, and casually taking out high-grade elixirs, everything pointed to Ye Luo not being an ordinary person.

Regardless of what others thought, the now restored Ye Luo didn’t hesitate to activate the Imperial Dragon Art again, but this time it wasn’t the Earth Dragon Seal he deployed, but the Imperial Dragon Art’s fourth seal, the Sky Dragon Seal.

The Imperial Dragon Art had a total of seven seals, and Ye Luo had only ever deployed the first three. He had never used the last four. To confront Ji Lingtian, who was at the fourth level of the Saint Realm, he had to use the Imperial Dragon Art’s fourth seal to stand a chance.

The Imperial Dragon Art’s fourth seal, the Sky Dragon Seal!

Ye Luo shouted lowly, his hands quickly forming the seals of the Imperial Dragon Art, as the Nine Yang True Qi within his body burst out like a flood breaching a dam, swiftly transforming into the Sky Dragon Seal.

Boom!

A thunderous sound of heavenly and earthly might erupted as Ye Luo deployed the seal, which unexpectedly drew in the spiritual energy of nature. Streams of this energy madly converged around Ye Luo, merging into his Sky Dragon Seal, transforming rapidly into a white Dragon Shadow tens of meters long.

With the infusion of nature’s spiritual energy, the white Dragon Shadow appeared even more solid, as though a true dragon had descended to the mortal realm, exuding an unrivaled, formidable aura.

A thundering dragon’s roar sounded, startling everyone in the banquet hall, leaving them with stunned expressions as they watched this scene unfold.

"This..."

At this moment, Ji Lingtian, facing the imposing white Dragon Shadow tens of meters long and radiating an air of dominance, was dumbstruck and found himself frozen in place.

Below the stage, Feng Tian, the disciples of the Yuheng Pavilion, people from the three great ancient martial families, individuals from the four top families of Capital City, Ji Mo, Cao Wuheng, including Yuheng Pavilion’s Pavilion Master Xu Ruobai, all wore looks of shock, struggling to maintain their composure.

"Sky Dragon Seal—Destroy!"

Ye Luo shouted decisively, his strength erupting outwards, as the white Dragon Shadow, now joined by nature’s spiritual energy, let out another heaven-shaking roar, charging towards Ji Lingtian with formidable might.

Beneath the towering Dragon Shadow, Ji Lingtian appeared extremely insignificant, his face blank with shock, momentarily forgetting to resist.
