Chapter 331 Obtaining the Dragon Core and Dragon Heart Stone Again (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets! So cute!!!)
Breakthroughs in spiritual consciousness are unlike anything else; they happen in an instant. The leap from the late stage of the third rank to its peak is a gradual increase.
Rather than a true breakthrough in a minor realm, it is a small transformation. Strictly speaking, it is actually an elevation from the "ninth level" to the peak.
The difference to begin with isn't that much.
Wang Yu immediately consumed it, circulated the Ancient Soul Technique to refine it, and finished in no time. His divine sense quietly increased, growing by about one-fifth in total.
Next comes the fourth level of divine sense.
It will take a lot of time and effort to work through this, which will be a good opportunity to work through the effects of taking a lot of elixirs recently.
To break through to a higher realm, besides rare and precious materials and miraculous elixirs, Wang Yu felt that he might be able to break through by taking advantage of the opportunity presented by a breakthrough in cultivation techniques.
As a top-tier fourth-order divine sense cultivation technique.
Wang Yu has been using the Ancient Soul Technique for quite some time, but he has only reached the minor completion stage so far. If he could cultivate it to the major completion stage, he might be able to seize the opportunity for a breakthrough by utilizing the profound mystery of the technique.
Conservatively speaking, it will take another five or six years.
Not too long.
After tidying himself up, Wang Yu, feeling even more energetic, turned his gaze toward the Jiaolong Cave.
Monsters are different from humans.
Unless they form a group, the lairs of solitary monsters are generally quite rugged, since for them, it is merely a place to sleep and live.
Unlike the human race's cave dwellings, which are extremely complexly arranged.
Since the dragon's life or death was in Drunken Immortal Lake, things became even simpler. After checking it several times, Wang Yu erected a magical shield and plunged into it.
The so-called Jiaolong Cave is a rather long, dark passage with rock walls that look very smooth, as if they have been polished.
One can imagine that a dragon once rubbed against the rock wall, relaxing its muscles and bones.
After advancing only a few dozen meters, Wang Yu stopped moving.
The dragon scales, each about half the size of a palm, are stuck in the crevices of the rocks. They are fan-shaped and triangular in appearance, more like fish scales.
He leaned closer and pulled it off.
Wang Yu was both disappointed and relieved. Judging from the condition of the scales, this dragon cave was at least a thousand years old.
During his lifetime, his strength reached at most the third rank, and he did not reach the fourth rank, otherwise these scales would not have appeared in this way.
"A fourth-tier opportunity is indeed not so easy to come by."
Shaking his head to banish the greedy thoughts from his mind, he continued walking for several hundred meters, and an even more expansive void came into view.
It was a wild cave dwelling covering about a thousand acres. It wasn't large, just big enough for the dragon's body to move around normally, and there were no restrictions or formations set up.
Search with divine sense.
The most conspicuous opportunity here is a dragon skeleton over a hundred meters long, coiled on the central stone platform. This size proves that it was at least a mid-level third-tier dragon in its lifetime.
"It seems to be a dragon with superior bloodline, but that's a bit of a stretch."
but.
Dragon bones and dragon scales are excellent materials for refining weapons, and are suitable for being refined into the Bloodline True Weapon [Demon Dragon Armor], serving as a natal true weapon for body refining.
Wang Yu has integrated a third-tier dragon vein treasure, and with the addition of dragon-related materials, his growth rate will only be faster.
Most importantly, this place is where the dragon passed away, and the dragon's corpse is covered with strong dragon energy, which is one of the body tempering techniques he has always lacked.
This intense dragon aura, if fed back through the placement system, would probably take over a decade to accumulate to this size. The placement system is great in every way, except that it only provides a tiny bit of feedback each day.
Furthermore, it cannot provide the massive amount of spiritual energy required for breakthroughs in major realms. It follows the path of accumulating little by little, and one cannot become fat in one bite.
"With the dragon's aura accumulated here as resources, combined with the body-refining resources I have, I will definitely be able to break through to the late stage of the third-order body-refining stage."
Observe for a moment.
Wang Yu discovered a dragon pearl in the middle section of the dragon's skeleton; to be precise, it was the dragon's inner core, something he had obtained before.
It has a remarkable effect on enhancing the Yinming Demon Dragon Technique.
However, he traded that one to Yu Tangtang back then in exchange for two Foundation Establishment spiritual items, which, from today's perspective, was a loss in terms of total value.
For him at the time, it was a huge win!
Without wasting time, he directly established his foundation, which laid the foundation for his dual spiritual root aptitude.
This third-tier dragon inner core was also an excellent aid for him to improve his body cultivation. These gains alone were already considerable.
But Wang Yu still hasn't forgotten his previous speculation.
"Judging from its dragon-bone form, it is very similar to the Bloodwhisker Carp, which proves that treasures of bloodline evolution must exist. I just don't know if it's a one-time opportunity..."
Thinking this to myself.
He searched the Dragon Cave repeatedly with his divine sense, but found nothing. As he frowned and pondered, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he thought of the way the Peach Blossom Ghost Mother found the Dragon Cave.
With a thought, he unleashed the Yellow Springs Great Handprint.
It quickly transformed into a pool of turbid water, sweeping across the entire Jiaolong Cave inch by inch.
As expected.
A smile appeared on Wang Yu's face as he ran to a corner of the Flood Dragon Cave. His Yellow Spring Handprint tore through the invisible barrier, revealing clusters of nine-inch-long, dragon-shaped spiritual herbs.
There were nine plants in total, all rooted in a single rock. Wang Yu's solid knowledge immediately allowed him to discern the origins of this spiritual herb.
"Dragon Shadow Grass?!"
This treasure can increase the bloodline concentration of dragon-type monsters, but it is not very compatible and is not suitable for the three-tailed snow fox. However, the stone where the dragon shadow grass takes root is a treasure.
Wang Yu took it all.
That stubborn rock was actually formed from the dragon's heart, with a layer of stone skin on the outside. The quality of the Dragon Shadow Grass that grows on it depends entirely on the cultivation level of the master of this Dragon Heart Stone in its previous life.
If you're lucky, you might be able to extract some of the essence from it.
It requires special refining techniques using flames to yield results, making it even more expensive than Dragon Shadow Grass.
The master of this Dragon Cave values the Dragon Shadow Grass but doesn't develop the Dragon Heart Stone itself; this is actually due to limited vision. If the Dragon Shadow Grass could grow continuously...
For the dragon, this was already a remarkable opportunity.
Therefore, it cannot be said to be wrong.
"Illiteracy is great, it's really great!"
Wang Yu was very satisfied with this harvest. He could refine both the Dragon Shadow Grass and the Dragon Heart Stone using the Yinming Demon Dragon Technique to enhance the foundation of his Dragon Spine.
How far we can go in the future depends entirely on how solid our foundation is.
The deeper his foundation, the stronger his physical body becomes. Body cultivators follow the path of gods and demons, which is different from the orthodox immortal path, making it very suitable for him.
After storing all his gains in the Sea Heart Ring, Wang Yu thought for a moment and then returned to another temporary underwater cave dwelling to bring the Xuanbing Bed, Snow Jade, and Yellow Spring Bones to the Flood Dragon Cave.
He directly usurped the dragon's nest and began cultivating with the dragon's aura derived from the dragon's corpse and bones. He had refined very little of this aura, and felt the benefits as soon as he came into contact with it.
If the Taiyin Moon Fiend Body Refining technique gave him the feeling of putting his body into acid, dissolving it inch by inch, allowing it to penetrate every corner of his body, and undergoing a kind of tempering like water dripping on stone.
Then the Dragon Fiend is like a weapon, which is very powerful and gives him a "pleasure" of being constantly pierced by the weapon. The feeling of soreness that makes it hard to breathe, and when it is rubbed harder, it is very sour and refreshing.
It's like scratching a mosquito bite; after the initial pleasure, you end up with a bloody mess, a bittersweet experience.
Wang Yu felt that he had mastered the skill.
After all, he was experiencing pain that was unimaginable to most people, and he actually started to feel pleasure from it.
certainly.
It's also possible that their personality is developing into something abnormal.
With ample resources, Wang Yu never stopped refining the Dragon Fiend. The dragon scales he had collected upon entering were all refined into the Fiend Dragon Armor.
And after absorbing the dragon energy from each section of the dragon skeleton, it also handed it over to the dragon armor to absorb, making full use of it without wasting a single bit!
With each tier of dragon bone incorporated, the already black and gold Demon Dragon Armor gains an additional pale white bone pattern, and a rib-like armor grows from its side, gradually becoming more complete.
It gradually exuded a demonic dragon's aura, getting closer and closer to the superior-grade artifact.
Meanwhile, the growth rate of the divine essence reached a new high, almost filling half of the dragon's spine. This state, similar to the Golden Core realm, is both a manifestation of the results of cultivation and a source of power.
Every point gained is proof of Wang Yu's improved strength.
Dragon Blood Medicine, Blood Dates, Dragon Blood Essence, Dragon Shadow Grass.
The alternating use of the four resources almost turned him into a walking pharmacy, and the near-mastery of the Demonic Dragon Fist accelerated his digestion, pushing his progress to the limit that Wang Yu could bear.
Improving every moment!
In the silent Dragon Cave, after countless years, the roars of dragons echoed once more. The sound was absorbed by the array flags and did not travel outwards.
Time passed month by month.
…………
…………
The Bloodstained Plains, located near the east.
Zhuo Shouyun and his group of nine escorted Ding Ming, whose nine orifices were sealed, to the vicinity of the Demon Cave, where the Twin Beauties of Yougu were waiting respectfully.
Upon seeing Zhuo Shouyun, he quickly stepped forward.
“Young Master Yun, Wang Yu did indeed appear at the demon breeding farm set up by my Feng Clan a few months ago. The three peak Core Formation stage uncles of the Feng Clan who were left in the Blood Abyss in the previous batch all died at his hands.”
It really was him.
Zhuo Shouyun narrowed his eyes and said bluntly.
"Make a copy of your memories of what happened to him and give it to me. Not a single detail should be overlooked."
The two sisters hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.
The Feng clan held a high position, second only to the three clans.
However, this does not mean that they can be compared with Zhuo Shouyun's status. Not directly searching their souls is already a kind approach, and there is no reason to refuse.
After Zhuo Shouyun finished reading their memories, he also had doubts. However, he was not bound by common sense. He knew more about Wang Yu than the two girls did.
"The Yellow Springs Great Handprint, a top-grade magic weapon of the Yellow Springs Path and a mastery-level technique, and the killing fist he used against Lu Chenzhou also seems to have reached perfection. This person is truly extraordinary."
Through the images he remembered, he recognized almost all of Wang Yu's commonly used methods.
At this moment, Long Xingyun, with his arms crossed, spoke.
"Young Master, isn't this person a cultivator from Cold Blood Peak? Why doesn't he cultivate ice-based divine abilities? Is he deliberately hiding his true strength to mislead us...?"
Zhuo Shouyun nodded.
"That's possible. It's not that he's deliberately hiding his abilities; he can't be a prophet. It's just that those weaklings aren't enough to make him use his full strength."
"The inheritance of the Yellow Springs Great Handprint should be the compensation he received when he served as the Lord of Guiling City from the incident of the sacred offering being stolen."
"If we start counting from that time, his Frost Divine Power might not be stronger than these two divine powers, after all, it has only been ten years since he broke through to the Core Formation stage."
"I see."
Please vote for me, please!
