A bolt of lightning shot down from the sky, heading straight for the Black Python King on the island in the middle of the lake.
"roar……"
The Black Python King roared to the sky, showing no fear of the heavenly lightning.
This is where demonic beasts differ from humans.
Even if humans cultivate all the way to the peak of the ninth level of the God Emperor Realm, they do not need to undergo tribulation.
However, demonic beasts are different. If a demonic beast wants to reach the God King realm, it must undergo the baptism of heavenly tribulation. If it cannot overcome it, it will die in the heavenly tribulation.
"here we go."
A glint of light flashed in Li Jing's eyes as he looked at the Black Python King and spoke.
After consuming the top-grade divine medicine, Dragon Blood Grass, the Black Python King finally stopped suppressing his cultivation level and officially aimed to break through to the God King realm.
Duanmu Yuan and the others also looked at the Black Python King with a hint of anticipation.
If the Black Python King fails to transcend its tribulation and cannot reach the God-King realm to become a true dragon, then they will have no hope of opening the True Dragon Treasury.
However, once the Black Python King successfully transforms into a dragon, they will have the opportunity to enter the True Dragon Treasury.
The bolt of lightning struck the Black Python King, but it didn't even break through the king's scales.
Seeing this, Li Jing and the others were not too surprised. The tribulation of the demon beast consisted of nine heavenly lightning bolts, each stronger than the last.
If the first bolt of heavenly lightning injures the Black Python King, then it's obvious that the Black Python King will not be able to survive this tribulation and transform into a dragon.
One bolt of lightning after another struck down. Starting with the third bolt, the scales on the Black Python King began to shatter, and crimson blood seeped out from the broken scales, staining the Black Python King a bloody color.
However, judging from the state of the Black Python King, it was clear that it had not suffered any major injuries and the impact was minimal.
In no time at all.
This was already the ninth heavenly lightning strike.
The color of this bolt of lightning had changed from black to dark red.
Rumble!
As the bolt of lightning struck, the Black Python King soared into the sky, heading straight for the black and red lightning.
final.
The Black Python King was struck by this black and red lightning bolt and landed on the island in the middle of the lake.
The entire island in the middle of the lake was transformed into a lightning field formed by heavenly lightning.
The entire island in the middle of the lake shattered under the heavenly lightning, disappearing along with the Black Python King.
"It's a success!"
Li Jing said with a smile on his face.
He sensed a power reviving deep within the waters of Meteorite Dragon Lake.
The tension that had been building up around Duanmu Yuan and the others finally eased.
boom!
The entire Meteor Dragon Lake seemed to explode, with countless drops of water shooting into the sky.
A gigantic black python, as black as charcoal, flew up from the lake and appeared in mid-air.
Pieces of black charcoal fell from the giant black python's body, revealing brand-new scales underneath.
As the charred remains fell, the Black Python King's aura grew stronger, but its size continued to shrink, from over two thousand meters long to just over one hundred meters.
A dragon horn emerged from above its head.
After this dragon horn appeared, the Black Python King had completely transformed into a dragon!
A dragon at the God-King level, radiating terrifying dragon might!
Duanmu Yuan flipped his right hand, and a black dragon-shaped jade pendant appeared in his palm.
The black dragon-shaped jade pendant vibrated continuously, clearly stimulated by the dragon blood on the Black Python King's body.
Li Jing and the others had all focused their attention on the black dragon-shaped jade pendant.
Duanmu Yuan continuously poured his own power into this black dragon-shaped jade pendant.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the black dragon-shaped jade pendant disappeared from Duanmu Yuan's palm and flew swiftly back to the original location of the island in the middle of the lake.
A beam of black light burst forth from the black dragon-shaped jade pendant, heading towards the lake water beneath the original island in the center of the lake.
The lake water was split in two and surged in all directions.
Even the silt at the bottom of the lake began to disperse in all directions, revealing a bronze door carved with a black dragon.
After the bronze door appeared, the black dragon-shaped jade pendant landed on the bronze door and disappeared.
The bronze door slowly opened.
Upon seeing the bronze door open, Duanmu Yuan exclaimed excitedly, "Fellow Daoists, the True Dragon Treasury has opened! We can go in now!"
After saying that, Duanmu Yuan slipped into the bronze door.
Li Jing and the others followed suit and entered the bronze gate.
After they had all entered, the bronze door began to slowly close.
The Black Python King, who had already transformed into a dragon, looked at the bronze gate with a hint of apprehension in its eyes and quickly moved away from the area.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Li Jing and his companions appeared in an extremely vast world.
In this vast and boundless world, there are towering trees that reach tens of meters, or even thousands of meters in height.
The branches of these large trees give the impression of being like writhing dragons, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.
"Dragon Blood Tree, this is the legendary Dragon Blood Tree..."
"Fellow Daoists, be careful!"
"The weakest of these dragon blood trees is at the demigod level, and the strongest may very well have reached the god-king level!"
Duanmu Yuan said with a solemn expression, "Dragon Blood Tree and Dragon Blood Grass are similar in that they are both nurtured after absorbing dragon blood."
However, dragon blood tree and dragon blood grass have one difference: dragon blood grass has no offensive power.
Dragon blood trees, however, possess extremely powerful attack capabilities; we can think of these dragon blood trees as individual tree people.
Killing these dragon blood trees wasn't without its benefits.
After a dragon blood tree is killed, it will transform into the heart of a dragon blood tree.
Each Dragon Blood Tree Heart is an excellent cultivation resource.
The weakest dragon blood tree here is at the demigod level, which means that even the weakest dragon blood tree can provide a top-grade spiritual herb-level dragon blood tree heart.
"Moreover, these dragon blood trees are right in front of us, which means that if we want to truly enter the True Dragon Treasury, we must first pass through this dragon blood tree forest."
"The only way to get in is to fight our way in!"
After a pause, Duanmu Yuan said in a deep voice.
He clenched his left hand, and an ancient longsword appeared in his palm, while his right hand gripped the hilt of the sword.
"Then kill them!"
Li Jing smiled calmly. Duanmu Yuan and the others might not care about these Dragon Blood Tree Hearts, but he did.
Even the Dragon Blood Tree Heart, a top-grade spiritual herb, would be of great help to their Primordial Dynasty.
With one step, he shot towards the Dragon Blood Tree like a streak of sword light.
As Li Jing attacked, the dragon blood trees seemed to come alive, waving their branches and attacking him.
Even more miraculously, the roots of these dragon blood trees were pulled out of the ground and walked directly on their roots, surrounding Li Jing.
