"Big Sister, look quickly, there's a dragon in the sky!" A bolt of lightning illuminated the heavens and the earth, and a female cultivator pointed towards the sky above the oasis ahead, shouting in alarm.
Lucy followed the direction of her finger. Another bolt of lightning shot down from the rolling clouds, and she immediately spotted a dragon leaping amidst the thunder and lightning.
The lightning in the sky seemed to be directed solely at the dragon.
"My God, this is a dragon undergoing tribulation!"
Upon witnessing the scene before her, Lucy said with dazed eyes, "The dragon is the totem of Huaxia, a legendary being. I never expected that in this land of the East, dragons truly exist!"
*Keng!*
As her words fell, a deafening dragon roar echoed from the opposite sky.
Amidst the incessant lightning, Lucy and the non-human cultivators saw the golden dragon constantly battling the thunder and lightning.
Bolt after bolt of lightning was torn apart by the dragon's claws, scattering into countless sparks.
"So magnificent!"
"Huaxia dragons are truly powerful!"
"God, if I had half the ability of this dragon, I could defeat Cheng Xiaofan with one hand!"
"How I wish this Huaxia dragon would notice me and bestow its power upon me!"
Several female cultivators from Great Britain, their eyes sparkling like gold, watched the wondrous spectacle and chattered incessantly.
Lucy's gaze remained fixed on the golden dragon struggling against the heavenly tribulation. Her expression grew increasingly grim, her brows furrowed, and she remained silent.
"Big Sister, did you notice something about this Huaxia dragon undergoing tribulation?" a female cultivator asked, standing close beside her.
Lucy said in a deep voice, "Listen to that dragon roar, don't you hear it? It sounds very similar to the sound Cheng Xiaofan makes?"
"What, Big Sister, you mean this Huaxia dragon is that Cheng Xiaofan?" the female cultivator exclaimed in shock.
Another female cultivator said, "How is that possible? How could Cheng Xiaofan be a Huaxia dragon?"
Lucy sighed with a complex expression and said, "In the magical land of Huaxia, nothing is impossible."
"We can cultivate into bird-people, perhaps Cheng Xiaofan is a dragon cultivator!"
"I already deeply regret getting involved with the secluded black people and wading into this muddy water. Once this storm subsides, we must find a way to break out. This is no longer a place for us non-human cultivators!"
"Once Cheng Xiaofan successfully passes his tribulation, we will be no match for him."
...
*Boom!*
The final muffled thunderclap sent Cheng Xiaofan plummeting from the sky to the ground. He coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The golden dragon rolled on the ground and reverted to human form.
The thunder tribulation clouds in the sky had dispersed, and the sun shone brightly on the hillside.
"Heh heh, nothing much!" Cheng Xiaofan got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and found he was perfectly fine.
He swung his arms and kicked his legs, and crackling sounds were heard as streaks of electricity, glowing with a blue light, emanated from his body.
Amazing!
What's going on?
Did I absorb too much lightning after being filtered by the electric current, causing it to overflow now?
Awesome!
I'm too awesome!
Cheng Xiaofan tried to punch a distant mountain peak.
A string of fireballs, accompanied by lightning, shot towards the mountain!
*Boom!*
With a world-shattering thunderous roar, half of the mountain peak collapsed.
Awesome!
Awesome!
Awesome!
Looking at his clenched fist, Cheng Xiaofan's face was filled with excitement.
It was then that he noticed his clothes had been burned to shreds by the lightning.
The skin scorched by the electric fire had also returned to normal.
Cheng Xiaofan went to a nearby pond and washed himself.
He retrieved a set of white casual clothes from his spatial storage and put them on.
To his regret, the two mobile phones he had on him were completely destroyed by the lightning.
Thinking of Lucy's high-tech phone, Cheng Xiaofan felt a slight sense of psychological balance.
He had originally wanted to get such a phone for his own White Goddess, but it seemed like all his efforts were in vain.
Never mind!
If he had a chance to go to Great Britain in the future, he would find a powerful individual there and snatch one from them.
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't afford to think too much about it and began searching for treasures everywhere.
He searched for three consecutive days in various parts of the desert oasis, filling his spatial storage with all sorts of rare and precious treasures.
*Chirp—*
As the oasis disappeared from view, the Heaven-Breaking Eagle let out a long cry and flew before Cheng Xiaofan.
"Heaven-Breaking Eagle, I didn't see you at all in the oasis. Where did you fly from?" Cheng Xiaofan asked eagerly, having missed the Heaven-Breaking Eagle for several days.
Upon hearing this, the Heaven-Breaking Eagle replied aggrievedly, "Master, when you entered the oasis, I was blocked and sent into a canyon in a desert!"
Cheng Xiaofan was slightly stunned.
It seemed that the opening of this desert oasis was entirely for him alone.
Even this ancient divine eagle was excluded.
Thinking of Zhou Zhizheng and the others, Cheng Xiaofan hurriedly asked the Heaven-Breaking Eagle again, "Did you see Zhou Zhizheng and those special warriors?"
The Heaven-Breaking Eagle said, "To Master, Zhou Zhizheng and the others were blocked in a canyon just like me. Look, they are rushing over here!"
Following the direction indicated by the Heaven-Breaking Eagle's wings, Cheng Xiaofan indeed saw Zhou Zhizheng and the special warriors running towards them.
"Mr. Cheng, are you alright?" Zhou Zhizheng called out from a distance.
Hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan walked forward. Seeing that Zhou Zhizheng and the special warriors were all spirited and energetic, he couldn't help but chuckle and ask curiously, "What could be wrong with me? The question is, what did you all eat to survive these past few days?"
Zhou Zhizheng pointed at the Heaven-Breaking Eagle and said, "To Mr. Cheng, thanks to your divine eagle. It caught all sorts of wild beasts on the Gobi Desert every day and provided us with food, allowing us to survive."
Cheng Xiaofan burst into laughter and gently patted the Heaven-Breaking Eagle's head, praising it, "Heaven-Breaking Eagle, you did well!"
He then asked Zhou Zhizheng, "Did you encounter Rell and those people?"
Zhou Zhizheng said, "They were with us, and they all starved to death!"
Cheng Xiaofan looked at the Heaven-Breaking Eagle and asked with a smile, "Heaven-Breaking Eagle, why didn't you give them some food?"
The Heaven-Breaking Eagle replied, "Those people had a dense smell of blood mixed with their malevolent aura. They've killed many people. I won't give them any food!"
What an upright and discerning Heaven-Breaking Eagle!
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but laugh, "That Rell, who was so eager to see how the non-human cultivators would defeat me, you've dashed his dreams!"
"Mr. Cheng, what are non-human cultivators?" Zhou Zhizheng asked, confused.
