MTLNOVEL Chapter 1157: Last Test
Ling Yun summoned the chaos dragon broadsword when he and Zhou Yu exited the gate, and the chaos dragon armor also covered his body, especially since the primordial chaos dragon was hovering above the golden chest in the middle of the room. There were only both of them in the room, and his system couldn't detect the chest's contents or dragon power.
"This dragon is your final test, so you have to face it by yourself. By the way, it is an illusion, but I can't detect its power, and I don't know about its ability." Zhou Yu spoke as she moved to the side of the room.
*Roar*
The dragon released a deafening dragon roar as soon as Ling Yun transformed into his half-dragon form. Even though he already had the primordial chaos dragon bloodline and half-soul, the dragon's roar still caused him to feel dizzy and stagger backward.
"Damn! I've never felt like this since I reached this stage! Although this dragon may be merely an illusion, I sense that its aura is just as terrifying as Long Hun's, and it exerts a significant amount of pressure on me." Ling Yun tried to use the chaos dragon genesis, but the dragon also used the same ability, causing both of them to nullify each other's abilities. "Phew! Ever since I became a cultivator, I've always relied on my chaos dragon bloodline and abilities, but I can't use them now. You may be strong and perhaps as strong as the old dragon, but I've been training as long or even longer than him. I will never be afraid to face you, and I will prove that I am stronger now."
Since he couldn't use any techniques to fight with the dragon, Ling Yun decided to rely on his physical strength and movement speed. Despite this, he was still able to utilize all his elements, including his space. Moreover, Zhou Yu had taught him many space techniques, so he intended to rely on them.
"Let's do it then." Ling Yun grabbed the hilt of the broadsword and leaped toward the dragon to strike it, but it right away let out another roar.
Naturally, Ling Yun wouldn't let the dragon's roar affect him, and he used his own dragon roar to counter it.
*Roar*
*Roar*
In an instant, two loud dragon roars clashed with each other, producing a huge wind wave that swept across the area.
*Swoosh*
Ling Yun immediately used his light feather steps and moved above the dragon, but its tail right away swept toward him. He deflected it using his broadsword, but the force of its attack sent him flying backward.
The dragon didn't stop there, and it immediately shot toward Ling Yun with its mouth wide open, intending to swallow him alive.
Without thinking twice, Ling Yun created many space doors surrounding the dragon. He disappeared into one of them, reappeared behind it, and swung his broadsword toward the tail.
*Clang*
Unfortunately, the dragon's skin was as thick as the strongest metal, and Ling Yun's attack did not affect it. Instead, the dragon's tail swiftly struck his body, inflicting pain throughout his body and causing him to tremble. "Fuck! This dragon is just an illusion, but its attack is truly painful!"
Ling Yun then used his light feather steps again and moved quickly around the dragon, and he also used his light Qi to try to attack it, especially since it only had dark Qi.
However, Ling Yun's movements did not escape the dragon's eyes, and it immediately attacked him with its claws and tail, forcing him to retreat before attacking it again.
For some time, Ling Yun and the dragon continued to exchange attacks, but their attacks did not have much impact on each other.
Even though the dragon's attacks hit Ling Yun's body several times, the primordial chaos dragon was far enough away to protect him from injury. Unfortunately, none of his attacks were able to penetrate its tough skin, nor did they even scratch its body.
Zhou Yu, who was watching from the side, raised her eyebrows when Ling Yun disappeared into one of the space doors. However, her gaze remained fixed on the dragon as she contemplated a solution to help him defeat it.
'This illusion is not just an illusion, and I feel that there is something different about it, but I don't understand what the difference is.' Zhou Yu wondered in her heart as she observed the dragon. 'As long as he can't figure out the weakness of this illusion, he will never be able to pass this challenge. If he could use his abilities, he should be able to defeat this dragon, but he can only fight with raw attacks and techniques now.'
Inside the space, Ling Yun was also observing the dragon, deep in thought. Moreover, the dragon did not show any movement when he disappeared, and it only attacked him when he was directly in front of it.
'Is it possible that I can attack it from inside here? As long as it doesn't use its abilities, I should be able to use my other abilities.' Ling Yun then tried to use the Five Beast King's fist. The five mythical beasts immediately appeared above the dragon, but it still showed no reaction. 'As expected! The dragon won't attack as long as it doesn't see me, so I'll try to attack it from here.'
In that instant, the vermilion bird bombarded the dragon with several large fireballs. The azure dragon created huge water waves to attack him. Meanwhile, the white tiger used wind elements, the black tortoise used earth and water elements, and the lightning kirin summoned lightning to attack the dragon directly.
Ling Yun also used the Five Elements Secret Art to boost the attack power of the five mythical beasts created by his Five Beast King's fist.
*Roar*
A powerful shockwave accompanied the dragon's furious roar. It also used the primordial chaos dragon origin ability, dispelling Ling Yun's techniques directly. Stay updated through empire
Ling Yun let out a heavy sigh. 'My previous guess was incorrect, as the dragon immediately moved upon sensing my attack. If I can't attack it, I will never be able to complete this challenge."
Ling Yun contacted Zhou Yu and asked her to use her void walls to protect herself. Once the void spirit complied with his instructions, he promptly activated the nine underworld gate technique, causing nine dark creatures to emerge from the gates and rush towards the dragon.
Unfortunately, Ling Yun's efforts were in vain, especially since those nine dark creatures instantly disappeared as soon as the dragon let out another furious roar.
Still, in space, Ling Yun moved under the dragon and used his vacuum palm to pull it down, but it didn't move an inch from its spot. He then used his Golden Buddha palm to attack the dragon.
To Ling Yun's surprise, the dragon didn't react to the golden palm. Although his attack hit its body heavily, it did not leave any wounds on it.
"What happened? Why didn't the dragon dodge or counter my Golden Buddha Palm?" Ling Yun then used the technique again, but he didn't use it once; he used it three times in succession.
*Boom... Boom... Boom...*
The three giant golden palms slammed into the dragon heavily, but Ling Yun's attacks still couldn't hurt it. "Holy shit! Don't tell me that the true primordial chaos dragon is even stronger than this illusion dragon! If the old dragon was unable to defeat the Chaos with his true strength, I no longer have the confidence to defeat the Chaos."

On the top of the tower, Xing Jiangjun and several male immortals looked shocked by the power of the illusion dragon. "Hey, Lingzhu! How did you create that illusion? Why is it so powerful? All of Ling Yun's attacks are powerful, but they are futile against it."
"I didn't create the illusion dragon." Xing Jiangjun and the others turned to Huang Lingzhu, who immediately provided them with an explanation. "I placed a device that Tang Xiao gave me there, and Ling Yun created the dragon himself."
"So you mean the power of the illusory dragon is based on Ling Yun's own thoughts?"
Huang Lingzhu nodded to them. "If Ling Yun believes the dragon is strong, it will also be strong, but the opposite is also true. The dragon's strength continued to increase, especially since he thought it was much stronger than he estimated. If he doesn't figure it out, he will never be able to beat it."
Shiwang Zhizhu nodded in response. "This test is easy but also difficult; even immortals like us would have a hard time passing it if Lingzhu didn't tell us the truth."
"How long do you think Ling Yun will take to complete it?" Yun Xian asked them.
Yan Xian and the others shook their heads at Shiwang Zhizhu. In contrast to them, Huang Lingzhu wore a faint smile, her confidence in Ling Yun clearly visible in her gaze. 'I've been following you since you were born, and I know you're not stupid. You can even see through all my schemes, so you should be able to see the truth behind the illusion.'

On the 100th floor, Ling Yun kept searching for a way to defeat the dragon, but all his efforts were still fruitless. Meanwhile, Zhou Yu was busy checking around the room, especially since she felt that there was something unusual about the illusion. 'Huang Lingzhu must have hidden something here to create this illusion, but where did she hide it?
