I Can Capture Attacks
Chapter 35: Inheritor

Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Inheritor

A bright light was released by the dragon and the next instant, it had transformed into a humanoid form. Long, branchlike horns, a white beard, red hair and a gloomy face. The dragon transformed into an old man with crimson eyes and a bulky body covered in scales here and there.

Swoosh!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The old humanoid dragon moved at incredible speed, appeared in front of Zixin in the blink of an eye and punched him in the gut. Zixin was pushed back a few feet and spat out a mouthful of saliva.

[Millions of years of being trapped here without any contact with Spirit Qi has gotten weak to this extent! Damn Sealing Pillars and Strength Absorbing Chains dropped my strength to Peak Soul Transformation Realm! If only I could break these chains and escape this seal, my strength will return to what it once was!] said the old dragon to itself, completely ignoring Zixin who was looking at it.

’Soul Transformation Realm? I think I can take him down if I risk my life, should I risk it or not? Fuck it, I’m risking it, it’s a dragon afterall!’ said Zixin inwardly and attacked the old dragon. If it had been in the Unification Realm, he’d have run away long ago.

[Unstoppable Frenzied Bull Demon!]

[Mhm?]

The old dragon didn’t move a single inch even as Zixin ran towards it with great momentum.

BAAANG!!!

If it was outside, the shockwave would have definitely created a huge crater but here, the shockwaves didn’t even crack the floor. Zixin was sent flying back after the collision but he stood up and attacked the dragon again but the results were the same. Zixin collided with the dragon again and again but all he managed to do was only push back the dragon an inch back after every collision.

Zixin collided with the dragon eight times and on the ninth time, he released all the collisions he just received. The dragon was oblivious and casual but when he collided with Zixin this time, his eyebrows rose as he was sent flying. Zixin chased after the dragon and executed his most powerful technique in this arsenal.

[First Fist Of Disaster: Explosion Earthquake!]

He released a barrage of explosion fists and the dragon retaliated with claw punches that left gashes on Zixin’s body.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two ate each other’s punches while releasing their own barrage of punches at the same time. Zixin kept on releasing the fist attacks he was capturing, making the dragon confused. After five minutes of punching each other, the old dragon used palm strikes and Zixin returned them to it with powerful punches accompanying them.

After receiving the palm attacks and explosion punches, the dragon finally retreated and looked at Zixin with excitement.

[From your bone age, I’ve deduced that you’re only seventeen years old and your combat strength has reached the Beginner Soul Transformation Realm, Intermediate Soul Transformation Realm if I include your powerful punches. You’re a body cultivator at the Soul Formation Realm or equivalent to that. Your body is also like an impenetrable fortress, not just anyone or anything can bypass your defenses. And finally, your Physique, you have a special body that captures attacks and returns them to your opponents, it’s my first time learning about such a Physique. You’re perfect!] the old dragon explained everything about Zixin.

Having all his secrets laid bare in front of him made Zixin very uncomfortable and judging by how much the dragon was willing to say, it was definitely preparing a big move.

The old dragon’s face paled as he forcibly pulled out his Soul from his body. The Soul was extremely big, bigger than even the dragon itself but sadly, Zixi couldn’t see or feel it. The dragon’s body fell to the ground and returned to its original beastly appearance. The dragon’s soul also had Soul Chains piercing it and making it weaker but the dragon didn’t care and executed a forbidden technique.

[Forbidden Dragon Art: Dragon Soul Possession!]

The dragon’s Soul resisted the chains pulling it back and forcefully entered Zixin’s body, his consciousness to be precise. Immediately when it entered his body, Zixin’s body bled from all his pores and facial orifices, his bones crackled and his muscles stretched. Something massive and heavy had entered his body and the body couldn’t handle the stress.

At the same time, the old dragon was suppressed and attacked by five glowing words with overwhelming power.

Primordial Horned Giant Dung Beetle!

Seeing these words, the old dragon was astounded and scared.

[Inheritor! He’s actually an Inheritor?! I didn’t know! I didn’t know! Please let me go!] shouted the old dragon as its soul shrank at a rapid speed. Acting quickly, the old dragon cancelled the possession techniques since it wasn’t a match for the words and flew out of Zixin’s body. Halfway to its original body, the old dragon sensed danger and dodged to the side but the attack still reached it. Whatever attack Zixin used had locked onto the dragon.

[Tribulation Lightning?! He controls Tribulation Lightning?! No! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! I have to survive!] said the old dragon and endured the lightning bolts and entered its body with its miniscule soul fragment.

[I’ll put my remaining soul in my flames, a shame I can’t take the Blood Essence with me.]

[Dragon’s Breath!]

The old dragon now back in its body released powerful flames that released searing flames but the heatwave was quickly retracted and the flames turned into an egg-like appearance, everything safely contained within. The reason why the old dragon was able to achieve this was because the lightning bolts loosened the grasp the Soul Chains on the dragon’s Soul and it escaped and hid inside its own flames.

The corpse lay listless on the floor with a small hole on the head but with its massive size, the small hole was very big.

"Hahaha! Bastard lizard, never try to possess a transmigrator or you’ll definitely meet your maker, hahaha!" laughed Zixin as he weakly approached the dragon’s corpse with shining eyes.

"With this, many of the Blood Essence Techniques can definitely be practiced to completion."
