Just as everyone was consolidating the source baptism they had received to varying degrees, the summit of the second mountain was being covered by waves of rich, azure spiritual energy.
The concentration of spiritual energy had already transformed the mountaintop into a sea of deep blue spiritual mist.
Suddenly, an incomparably powerful wave of energy and howling wind erupted from the center of the spiritual mist, causing the spiritual energy to spread wildly in all directions.
The spreading spiritual energy instantly swept across a large area, causing the surrounding space to become overburdened.
But the next moment, an extremely terrifying suction force emanated from the figure enveloped in spiritual energy. The suction force formed a huge vortex, the center of which turned into a black hole, swallowing up all the spiritual energy that was dense enough to cover the figure into the sea of qi.
At the source of this powerful force, a figure could be faintly seen immersed in cultivation. The aura around him was constantly rising, changing, and transforming, and the pressure emanating from his body was becoming increasingly heavy.
"The Divine Travel Realm is still a little short..."
Qin Luo raised one hand and made a grasping motion. Instantly, the space in front of him was kneaded by an invisible giant hand, creating visible folds.
The gust of wind emanating from the folds of the void whipped his already tattered clothes and disheveled hair into a wild dance, yet his posture remained as upright as a pine tree, and the depth in his eyes revealed a hint of regret.
"Fortunately, there is still the essence of the Heavenly Origin Realm expert's Sea of Origin. However, with my current level, absorbing it is still wishful thinking. How should I make use of it?"
At this point, Qin Luo's hand flashed, and a drop of Origin Sea Essence emitting a faint blue light slowly appeared.
The essence droplet contains faint spiritual patterns, with countless Daoist principles flowing within it. Just by looking at it directly, one can see its extraordinary nature.
While Qin Luo was lost in thought, he was completely unaware that a wisp of white mist had silently emerged from his dantian.
By the time he regained consciousness, it was too late.
A white dragon shadow swallowed the essence of the Origin Sea without mercy in the blink of an eye.
Qin Luo: Σヽ(?Д ?; )
"You stupid dragon! Spit it out right now..."
Qin Luo's face was full of anger as he grabbed the tail of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon with both hands and shook it violently up and down.
The mouth of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon was like a welded iron lock, and no matter how Qin Luo struggled, it wouldn't loosen even a little.
With dazed, wide eyes, she looked at Qin Luo with a blank expression:
"Waaah~"
"What, you're not stupid? Is this the time to discuss this?"
"Do you know how precious this essence is? It's not something you can just swallow casually."
Qin Luo shook the child while scolding him.
However, the Primordial Ancestral Dragon remained unmoved, only struggling a few times in Qin Luo's grasp, trying to break free from his control. But finding it impossible to escape, it roared softly again:
"Woo-woo, ee-ooh~"
Upon hearing the shout, Qin Luo was first taken aback, then his eyes widened, and he asked incredulously:
"What did you say! This thing is extremely useful to you, and my method of using the Primordial Heaven Tempering technique is wrong? Why didn't you warn me back then?"
The thought of the agony he endured while tempering his body in the Abyss, and now being told that the method was wrong, filled him with rage.
In his extreme anger, he unconsciously loosened his grip a little.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Primordial Dragon broke free and flew to the side, tilting its head. Then, a memory of inheritance entered Qin Luo's mind.
"Primordial Qi tempering, which involves using the primordial Qi to temper the body, and using the mind as the controller to build an unparalleled physique."
"By tempering oneself in the perilous environments of heaven and earth, and undergoing countless trials, one can transcend the mundane."
At this moment, the scene fell silent, with the man and the dragon staring at each other.
Seeing Qin Luo's increasingly somber face, the Primordial Ancestral Dragon roared once more:
"Waaah~ (Translation: Telling you before was useless. Without the Primordial Qi, you can't use it anyway. You still have to obediently use the perilous realms of heaven and earth to temper your body, right?)"
"Alright, alright! So what does this have to do with you consuming my essence?"
Qin Luo was filled with helplessness and could only swallow his anger, saying this.
The moment he finished speaking, the scene before him suddenly changed, leaving him speechless with astonishment.
Wisps of white mist rose around the body of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon. Deep within the mist, a wisp of primordial energy flickered in and out of sight, like the first ray of dawn at the beginning of chaos.
This primordial breath is like a wisp of smoke, light as a feather and almost imperceptible, drifting leisurely in the vast white mist. Every sway and every circle it makes exudes an ancient aura originating from the primordial chaos.
The Primordial Dragon carefully held the Primordial Breath in its claws, and let out a few cries towards Qin Luo, seemingly showing off its gains, or perhaps explaining the reason behind it all to Qin Luo.
"That's enough. Since things have come to this, I won't say anything more. But you must not act so rashly in the future."
Seeing this, Qin Luo could only sigh helplessly and said with a hint of admonition.
The Primordial Dragon nodded repeatedly, as if pounding garlic, and then gathered the Primordial Breath within it with its claws.
Immediately afterwards, it twisted its nimble body and quickly approached Qin Luo with a fawning expression, affectionately rubbing its still somewhat immature dragon head against his cheek.
The dragon scales gently rubbed against Qin Luo's skin, conveying its deep-seated dependence.
After a moment, it turned around with satisfaction, surrounded by a cloud of white mist, and slowly disappeared into Qin Luo's Qi Sea, beginning to digest the primordial essence. Only Qin Luo was left standing there, with a hint of helplessness on his face, standing there for a long time.
"Sigh, all my hard work and running around have come to nothing in the end. Well, at least my cultivation has broken through to the late stage of the Soul Separation Realm, which is a small consolation."
"I wonder how strong my physical body will be when the Primordial Breath or even the Primordial Ancestral Qi can support my body refinement? Will I be able to tear through the void with my bare hands, or will I be able to withstand divine artifacts with my bare body?"
"I still need to find some time to sign a contract with the Chaos Primordial Phoenix and the Origin Primordial Qilin. After all, the Primordial Heavenly Tempering has already surprised me enough. I wonder what kind of inherited divine abilities these two silly guys can bring me?"
Thinking of this, Qin Luo felt a sense of anticipation. He took a deep breath and gazed at the distant mountain peak, his mind racing with thoughts.
As Qin Luo was absorbed in the moment, a sudden gust of wind swept in from above.
In the blink of an eye, a graceful figure appeared in front of Qin Luo.
Qin Luo looked up and saw that Dan Bingli's once bright and sparkling eyes were now swollen and red, making one feel sorry for her.
Her fair and smooth cheeks were covered with clearly visible tear tracks. Though dried, the tear tracks were still etched across her face in a crisscrossing pattern.
A few strands of her hair, soaked with tears, clung to the sides of her trembling face, swaying with her breath, making her appear even more pitiful.
