After getting the "Dragon Blood Code" from Hogg, Haven finally understood why Hogg thought that method was not feasible.
In order to increase the concentration of blood, one actually needs to drink dragon blood, and it is best to drink the blood of a living dragon or a dragon that has just died a few minutes ago. If the dragon has been dead for a little longer, the effect of the dragon blood will be greatly weakened.
Not only that, if one wants to activate the dragon blood warrior bloodline lurking in the body, the level of dragon blood that one drinks cannot be too low. The ninth level of dragon blood is the minimum threshold for a slight effect, and the holy dragon blood is the real main course.
Seeing this, Haven immediately understood Hogg's sigh.
The currently defeated Baruch family's strongest members are only the sixth-level warriors Hogg and Hillman. With such strength, it is difficult for them to deal with a seventh-level monster, not to mention the dragon clan, which is considered the top among monsters.
After learning that the method was not feasible for the time being, Haven immediately began to change his thinking and tried to improve the Dragon Blood Code.
But he was only a six-year-old child after all. Although he had made amazing improvements to the Qi Condensation Method and created a secret book on Qi Condensation, he himself had not practiced further in Qi Condensation and lacked a lot of key knowledge.
Because of this, Haven's progress in improving the Dragon Blood Codex was very slow.
Hogg seemed to have given up and was determined to give it his all. He was even willing to sell all his property to support the six-year-old child.
He spent the family's remaining savings to purchase various Dou Qi secret books and high-level warriors' cultivation experience, and gave all this precious knowledge to the six-year-old child Haiwen so that he could continue to study the "Dragon Blood Secret Book".
This kind of behavior is naturally incomprehensible to outsiders.
But Hogg and Linley didn't think it was a big deal, and were even more confident about it than Haiwen himself.
Under such circumstances, half a year passed quickly.
In the ancestral hall of the Baruch family, Haven, who was sitting cross-legged in front of many spirit tablets, suddenly opened his eyes and raised his right hand thoughtfully.
The next second, misty silver fighting spirit gushed out from his palm. Strands of fighting spirit kept swirling in his palm, making the air hiss.
"Uncle, uncle, look what I found at home!"
Kobayashi Lei's excited voice came from outside the sect hall.
Haiwen turned his head while sitting on the futon, holding up the silver fighting spirit, and looked at the child who ran into the sect hall.
At this time, Lin Lei, who was already six and a half years old, wearing a short shirt, excitedly stepped into the threshold of the clan hall.
Then, a misty silver fighting spirit came into his sight, instantly freezing the dancing little fellow in place.
He opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at the misty silver fighting spirit surging in Haiwen's palm.
"Fight...fight?"
"Uncle, you succeeded?!"
Haiwen showed a smile from the heart and nodded: "Well, I succeeded."
Xiao Lin Lei's eyes widened, he stood there in shock for a while, and then jumped up excitedly.
"Great! I'll tell Dad the good news right away!"
Not long after, Hogg arrived at the clan hall, holding Linley in his arms, looking very excited.
"Haven, did you really succeed?"
"Yes." Silver fighting spirit emerged from Haiwen's palm, and he explained with a smile, "The key to the breakthrough of the subject lies in how to discover and control the dragon blood warrior bloodline lurking in the body. Cousin, you should know that there are three forms of perfect dragon blood warriors, right?"
Hogg immediately put Linley down from his arms, found a cushion to sit on, looked at Haven and answered seriously, “That’s right. The first form of a dragonblood warrior is the form of a normal human, and its strength is the weakest among the three forms.”
"The second form is a half-dragon form, which allows part of the body to be 'dragonized', making it even more powerful."
"The third form is the true form of the Dragonblood Warrior, which is the complete dragon form. In this form, the Dragonblood Warrior's entire body will be covered with green dragon scales, and even dragon horns will grow on his forehead, turning him into a true Dragonblood Warrior!"
Haiwen nodded with a smile, and then said seriously: "The key to my research in the past six months is this second half-dragon form!"
"Since dragonblood warriors can achieve half-dragon transformation, it means that the blood in our bodies can be partially awakened, right?"
Hogg listened carefully and nodded solemnly: "Yes, there is such a possibility."
Haiwen continued: "So I thought, since the blood concentration in our body is not enough, why not gather it all together and concentrate it at one point for local awakening?"
"For this purpose, I have studied for three months and finally created a secret technique that can make up for the concentration of blood. I call it the Dragon Containing Technique, but it can be changed to the 'Blood Condensation Technique' to cover up the identity of our Dragon Blood Family..."
Haven talked incessantly about his theoretical breakthroughs.
Hogg and Linley, who were sitting in a row in front of them, all had their eyes shining as they stared at Haven in amazement.
After Haven had been talking for a while, Hogg finally couldn't help but interrupt him, looking at him with sharp eyes and said:
"Are you already half-dragon?"
“…”
Haiwen was slightly startled, then nodded, raised his right hand, and stimulated the blood vessels in his body.
In an instant, fine green dragon scales grew on his right arm, and his five fingers were also covered with scales. The nails became thin and long, and they glowed with a metallic green luster like real dragon claws.
Seeing this scene, Hogg couldn't help but walk forward, grabbed his arm, and stared at it infatuatedly.
"It's really dragonization...it's really dragonization!"
"Haven, you did it, you really did it!"
Hogg danced with joy and excitement, and Lin Lei beside him couldn't help but feel happy for the two of them and their family.
After a while, Hogg managed to calm down, but there was still strong excitement in his dark eyes.
He turned Haiwen off the mat and pulled him in front of the numerous spirit tablets. He looked at the ancestors and said solemnly: "My ancestors, from now on, my Baruch family can finally restore the glory of the Dragon Blood Warriors... Haiwen, I plan to write your deeds into the family history. Your contribution to the family will be deeply remembered by all descendants."
"……ah?"
Hai Wen was stunned for a moment, then scratched his face and said, "That's not necessary. The Dragon Containment Technique is not perfect yet. If a part of the body is transformed into a dragon, the fighting spirit cannot be stored in the Dantian. It is necessary to open the second Dantian in the part that has been transformed into a dragon and concentrate the fighting spirit mainly in that place."
"In this way, the circulation of Dou Qi in the body will be disrupted, and the speed of cultivation will be reduced..."
"It doesn't matter!" Hogg interrupted Haven and said with a smile, "These are just minor details, Haven, you have done enough for the family!"
Afterwards, under the continuous praise from Hogg and Linley, the father and son, Haven felt a little embarrassed.
Although he felt that there was still room for improvement in "The Art of Containing Dragons", at the strong request of the clan leader Hogg, he still wrote the first edition of "The Art of Containing Dragons" and handed it to Hogg.
After Hogg got it, he immediately stood up and left the sect hall, preparing to go into seclusion in the quiet room to break through.
Only Haven and Linley were left in the huge sect hall.
While Hai Wen was teaching Lin Lei step by step, he casually asked, “By the way, what did you say you found?”
Linley was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Oh, it’s nothing. I just found a ring when I was cleaning the old house in the backyard today. Look, it’s hanging around my neck!”
"ring?"
Haven lowered his gaze and saw a black ring on Linley’s chest that was pierced by a thread and hung around his neck like a necklace.
At the same time, the moment he saw the ring, Haven suddenly felt a vague sense of being watched.
He frowned and suggested, "Although I can't explain why, I think it's better to throw it away."
“…Ah?” Linley was stunned for a moment, and grasped the ring on his chest reluctantly. “Why?”
"I can't tell you why."
Hai Wen shook his head, thought for a moment, and then changed his words: "Forget it, if you want to keep it, keep it. Just be careful."
"oh."
Linley readily agreed, but he felt somewhat skeptical in his heart.
It's just a ring, what's there to be cautious about?
…
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two spring and autumn have passed.
At this time, two years had passed since Haiwen created the Dragon Containment Technique.
Hai Wen, who was only eight years old, improved the "Dragon Containment Technique" again to version 2.0. Although this version still requires the development of the second dantian, the speed of cultivating fighting spirit is not much slower than the first dantian.
With the help of the "Dragon Containment Technique", Hogg finally broke through the bottleneck of the sixth-level warrior and became a seventh-level warrior.
The part he chose to transform into a dragon was also his arm. If it were half-dragonized, his strength would be comparable to that of an initial-stage eighth-level warrior.
Xiao Lin Lei, who was also eight years old, had also reached a high level of cultivation. His fighting spirit was as strong as that of a third-level warrior, far surpassing that of adult warriors of the same age or even those who were ten years older than him.
As for Haiwen, his improvement was even more astonishing. In just two years of training, he broke through six levels in one go and became a sixth-level warrior capable of half-dragon transformation.
Of course, the level here is merely the strength of the fighting spirit.
In terms of combat power, Haven felt that he could easily defeat Hogg.
Because in addition to the "Dragon Containment Technique", he also developed many fighting skills for dragon blood warriors. The most powerful of these moves were secretly used by Haven on Hogg, which could easily pierce the dragon scales on his body.
Because his own improvement was so astonishing, Haven was worried that Hogg and the others would disturb his research every now and then as they had done before.
Therefore, Hai Wen created his own Breath-Concealing Technique, concealing his true level of cultivation, and only revealed to others that his level was one level higher than Lin Lei.
As a result, the number of times Hogg disturbed him was indeed reduced, and Haven was finally able to continue his research on fighting spirit with peace of mind.
Until one day, a violent and frequent tremor suddenly came from the east of Wushan Town.
Hai Wen, who was practicing in the sect hall, frowned. Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the hall.
“Uncle…Uncle!”
Eight-year-old Linley rushed into the sect hall like a gust of wind, shouting excitedly, “Come and see! It’s a dragon! It’s a dragon!”
