Chapter 236 Price of Nether Dragon
Chapter 236 Price of Nether Dragon
The Spatial Heart Crystals slowly emitted a dim light as the energy seeped into his body.
Long Ming activated his Spatial Light Royal Body as he absorbed the pure energy of the space attribute.
The Spatial Light Royal Body already reached the Initial Completion stage long ago.
And with this amount of Spatial Light Royal Body, Long Ming felt he could directly reach the Minor Completion stage, cross the Minor Completion Tribulation then reach the Perfection stage in a single go.
The Grand Dao of space is very obscure. Even most talented and higher realm cultivator spends decades to only glimpse at the edges of its essence.
The space is all encompassing, it presents everywhere and everytime. The essence of space is truly deep and could be dangerous.
However, Long Ming with his Heavenly Revelation Eyes and Supreme Comprehension, he used his Spatial Light Royal Body as medium to slowly absorb and understand the essence of spatial energy.
The Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique utilized it's devouring force to quickly devour the energy from the SPatial Heart Crystals.
The Spatial Light Royal Body absorbed the spatial energy like a sponge absorbing water. Long Ming could feel that along with the absorption of spatial energy, he could slowly see a glimpse of Grand Dao of Space.
' With just my Initial Completion, I can use teleportation inside a radius of a hundred meters. However, Now, after I have gained insight about the dao of space, I can teleportation inside a radius of a few miles.'
' As my comprehension deepens, The distance of the teleportation would increase vastly. In the blink of an eye, I can traverse the distance of ten thousand li.'
' And perhaps, I can even return back to Earth?' Long Ming thought inwardly.
Not to mention, the power of spatial energy can be used in various fields. Be it attacking, defending or in utility, it's simply unmatched.
Take the storage ring for example. A single storage ring can store so many things inside an independent space.
However, if one has enough power and comprehension of the Grand Dao of Space, they can create a space big enough to create a world itself, with myriad things inside it.
As Long Ming felt his Spatial Light Royal Physique almost on the verge of reaching Minor Completion stage, he felt a stir in his divine sea.
His golden true core trembled as it slowly started to melt, making Long Ming startled.
' Wait, This… This is a liquefication of true core! I am going to ascend to the Primordial Spirit Unification Realm?' Long Ming's expression changed when he saw that.
However, at that moment, his Spatial Light Royal Body also showed signs of a breakthrough.
' Perhaps the great amount of energy in the Blood Qilin Sacred Spring made my cultivation advance. Even if I didn't get the System's clearance, I guess it's fine.' Long Ming thought inwardly.
' Oh wait, If I reach the Minor Completion stage, would I have to face Minor Completion Tribulation right here?' Long Ming frowned. ' It might create suspicions. Hmm…'
But as he was thinking, His expression changed when the Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique suddenly got out of control.
The pitch black nether dragon materialized around Long Ming as it's thousand feet body soared like a dark pillar.
Along with it, A burning flower condensed with azure flames, a burst of spatial energy like shattered mirror fragments shining with lights, and a giant mountain range with peaks covered with auspicious clouds appeared around the nether dragon.
They are none other than the physique phenomena of Azure Flame Royal Body, Spatial Light Royal Body, and Great Mystic Mountain Physique which swirled around the nether dragon.
" WA-WAIYT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
Long Ming was sitting at the bottom of the spring as he tried to scream, making the water gurgle around him. However, he saw the nether dragon opening its mouth as it created a devouring vortex.
The physique phenomena of three physiques slowly got sucked into the vortex as the nether dragon devoured everything, along with a vast amount of energy of Blood Qilin Sacred Pool.
Long Ming clenched his chest as he felt someone trying to slowly tear his body apart. The pain almost made him unconscious, but he persisted.
' You…fucking bastard!'
Long Ming cursed as he looked at the dragon. After devouring, the dragon swirled around Long Ming as it returned back to his divine sea.
Suddenly, The Supreme Scripture of Myriad Physiqes appeared in his mind.
The pages flipped as some new information appeared in Long Ming's mind.
Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique: To reach the Minor Completion stage, one needs to sacrifice two Minor Completion Imperial Physiques or Four Minor Completion Royal Phyiques or Sixteen Minor Completion Noble Physiques.
After the dragon devours the physiques, the host can still use the power and abilities of all his previous physiques, but in the form of techniques that would cost true qi.
After reaching the Minor Completion stage, the bearer of the nether dragon can actively devour the physique and souls of others, using them as his. Also, the devouring force increases, helping the host to cultivate faster.
The body becomes a perfect vessel for myriads of physiques and all the body abnormality shall vanish.
Before the Perfection stage, the host needs to undergo the Minor Completion Physique Tribulation. One should always make preparations for the tribulation of an Ancient Heaven grade physique.
Reading the text, Long Ming couldn't help but curse loudly.
' Fuck! Is that really happening to me right now? This damned body!'
But that wasn't the end.
Under the energy and pressure of Blood Qilin Sacred Pool, Long Ming's true core melted into a pool of liquid gold filled with multicolored radiance.
The liquid slowly spread through his body and soul, as Long Ming focussed on his qi cultivation moment.
Slowly, he broke through and reached the Low stage of the Primordial Spirit Unification realm.
But it didn't take him time before he made continuous breakthroughs, reaching the Peak stage of the Primordial Spirit Unification Realm, just a step away from the Harmonization Realm.
' No, I have to suppress this. Although my foundation is solid, I can't take the risk of cultivation deviation.' Long Ming thought inwardly.
Therefore, he used his Eternal True Spirit Art and directed all his energy to his soul.
The Soul Nourishing Bell in his soul slowly rang as he could see the humanoid soul protected by the bell.
The bell slowly hummed as it refined the strings of energy fed to the soul.
" Haah, I wonder how many days have passed?" Long Ming sighed.
But then, Long Ming thought about something as he opened his inventory.
Taking out his Star Platinum Grade Chest, he opened it.
" This…"
.
.
.
.
.
" Haah! I managed to advance my cultivation in my two small realms."
" I have managed to break through to the Harmonization Realm!"
" Me too!"
Ming Yuexin appeared from the spring and her energy was surging more and more. Looking at her fist, she could feel the surging power of the Harmonization Realm.
Then turning around, she saw Mu Qinglian who was sitting amidst a swirling vortex of crimson energy.
Jiang Wanxue was also sitting with her eyes closed. Although the energy she absorbed wasn't as vast as Mu Qinglian's, it was incomparably pure strings of blood qi, which were absorbed by her qilin blood,
Suddenly, two raging blood wings appeared behind Mu Qinglian as she opened her eyes.
' Haah! In merely three days, I managed to consolidate my Perfection stage Blood Phoenix Sacred Body.' Mu Qinglian opened her eyes.
' Not to mention, I also reached the High stage of Harmonization Realm, Just a step away from the Peak stage. I already gained a lot from this spring. But I can stay here for two more days, huh?' She thought inwardly.
" Sister Ming, congratulations. You reached Harmonization Realm." Mu Qinglian walked to Ming Yuexin. " Grand Elder would be very happy to see your progress."
" Well, Nothing compared to you, Qingqing." Ming Yuexin sighed.
But then, their gaze fell on Jiang Wanxue, whose body was covered with azure scales.
" Look! Her bloodline is evolving. Soon, she could be able to use the bloodline of a true qilin during her fight." Ming Yuexin spoke.
" Not bad, She already reached the Harmonization realm, yet her aura is so solid and powerful." Mu Qinglian pursed her lips. " In the future, her cultivation speed might catch up to mine."
" Is that so?"
As they were chatting, they subtly felt the blood qi and energy around them lessening, as if it was flowing away.
" Wh-What's happening? Why the energy is decreasing?"
Jiang Wanxue opened her eyes as she looked around with confusion. Mu Qinglian and Ming Yuexin were also startled, wondering what happened.
Here, General Zhao was guarding outside the spring, but his expression changed when he felt the flow of energy.
Ling Yuan, Han Cheng, and others also felt that the energy was decreasing around them as they looked confused.
" That direction…That's brother Long, right?"
" Holy shit! What is it he doing?
