Chapter 133 Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture
Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture
The four Jade Slips that the Azure Dragon God left for Xue Bai each correlated with one of the Great Realms, so after finding out which ones were which, Xue Bai first grabbed the Jade Slip that correlated with the Houtian Great Realm, and brought it to his forehead.
The Body Tempering Art that the Azure Dragon God left for Xue Bai was named the Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture, which was something he had found in a Secret Realm during his youth. And after learning it, he soon started to rise from a normal youth in the extremely competitive Azure Draong race into the powerhouse that shook the Immortal World's Dragon Clans.
This was also why Xue Bai was so eager to learn its profoundness. It could make the Azure Dragon God trample all of his peers in the Immortal World, so imagine the advantage it could give Xue Bai in this primitive Baishen Plane. The anticipation was killing him.
And the hype wasn't wrongly placed, as by the time the Jade Slip finished its memory transfer, Xue Bai's face couldn't hold back a smile.
The first chapter of the Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture was named the Dragon Body Tempering Art.
In the Dragon Body Tempering Art were six chapters that all prepared the foundation for the following chapters. After all, the Houtian Great Realm was known to be a foundational realm that strengthened the body in the early Realms and gave cultivators a glimpse into the Great Dao in the later Realms.
The first chapter, however, was the one that Xue Bai mainly focused on, as he knew that he shouldn't bite off more than he could chew.
Furthermore, the Azure Dragon God himself had warned him, saying the profoundness of the Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture was something far beyond anything that Xue Bai had and most likely ever seen.
Mainly because this first chapter was about how to create the dragon bloodline, and the many intricacies that laced the first chapter made it so complicated that even if the Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture was handed out to the population, not even .001% of the population could understand it.
However, Xue Bai was confident in his talents, so instead of being disheartened, a fire was lit inside of him. Having one HIgh Heaven-grade bloodline was certainly something to be happy about, but Xue Bai, ever since his enlightenment, swore never to be complacent once again.
While he didn't think of himself to be under the 'Children of the Plane,' that didn't mean he didn't have disadvantages.
They could find treasures of this quality just by walking around, turning every calamity into a blessing, and many other things that Xue Bai just couldn't do.
Everything he earned, he would earn by his own merits, not something placed onto his lap by luck because of luck.
So since the Azure Dragon God gave him a chance to gain another bloodline on the level of his current one, why deny it?
Even if it were hard or nearly impossible, as long as there was a chance, Xue Bai wouldn't give up.
However, very soon, black lines appeared on Xue Bai's forehead.
In order to start cultivating the Dragon Body Tempering Art, he needed a dragon-type Natural Treasure to catalyze the prototype dragon bloodline he would create. And not only that, while he could constantly upgrade the grade of the bloodline, the type and grade of the bloodline he started with would be determined by what treasure he would use.
"As expected, while this cultivation technique is mystical, they can't create something out of nothing." Xue Bai sighed.
At first, he was hooked after hearing that he could create a noble dragon bloodline by cultivating the Celestial Dragon Transformation Scripture, but after reading the fine print, he realized that was just a tease from the Azure Dragon God.
Nonetheless, Xue Bai was still excited about the future. He was the disciple of one of the most powerful men on this continent, so while it might take some time, there was no doubt in his mind that he couldn't get a dragon-type natural treasure.
Placing the Jade Slip back into his Spatial Ring, Xue Bai soon sensed a rising aura coming from Zhu Que in front of him.
It was as if a Divine Dragon was descending into the mortal world, disdaining everything in sight.
"FUCK!" Xue Bai remembered too late.
Jumping over next to Zhu Que, Xue Bai took the Nine Serenities Jade out of his Spatial Ring and placed it over both of them just as the phenomenon fully manifested.
Then just as he fully protected himself and the still-meditating Zhu Que, a deafening dragon's roar erupted from her body.
Following the shout, out from Zhu Que's body, an Azure Dragon hundreds of miles long flew out from her glabella, causing every demonic beast within the Barren Lands and even further out to kneel in fear.
Dragons were something of legends, and just the mentioning of their name would be enough to instill fear into a demonic beast, so when the phantom of one appeared, no demonic beast even dared to breathe in its presence.
The Azure Dragon phantom flew out of the cave Xue Bai and Zhu Que were in, destroying the entire mountain range until it reached the skies above the Baishen Plane. Where after opening the skies with another roar, it disappeared, leaving everyone just as confused as when it appeared.
Meanwhile, back in the Soaring Sword Sect.
At his own peak, Yue Zifeng peacefully sat as he drank a cup of tea he had poured out for himself.
Recently more and more small sects have been coming to the Soaring Sword Sect to offer gifts and swear fealty to them.
Which was something Yue Zifeng had expected. After all, his sect now had both Wang Yu and Xue Bai, two of the greatest talents the Southern Continent had ever seen.
And while he was a powerhouse in the Spirit Severing Realm and the Sect Leader of one of the three great sects, Yue Zifeng couldn't keep down a smile.
So during the past almost month, since Xue Bai had been accepted into the sect, he had spent a lot of it strengthening his faction and pressuring the others.
Even though Yue Zifeng was the Sect Leader and his sect was united, there were still overly ambitious people who wanted his throne. So after taking the two most talented disciples in the most recent entrance exam, Yue Zifeng had managed to give his faction more potential power.
Currently, he had just called Ye Rou over and was waiting for her to arrive. Her and Xue Bai's announcement ceremony was soon, and he wanted to check up on the progress of her cultivation technique.
She had just broken through to Qi Sea Realm and chosen a suitable cultivation technique, and he, naturally, as her Master, needed to guide her through any troubles she ran into.
But as he waited, his previously calm facial expression suddenly morphed into shock and disbelief.
And with a flash, he teleported out of his temple and into the skies above, where he witnessed something he would never forget.
An Azure Dragon rose into the air before tearing open the heavens above and disappearing.
"Divine Dragon soaring throughout the heavens, disdaining all of creation…." Yue Zifeng couldn't help but murmur a poem he had once heard in his youth.
"Wait! That came from the Barren Lands." Yue Zifeng quickly noticed.
Reacting quickly, he took out a communication token and crushed it before flying toward the main hall. The communication token he had just crushed was a sect-wide gathering order for every Elder.
That phenomenon meant one of two things, either a heavenly genius appeared or a fortuitous encounter of equal proportions. Either way, his Soaring Sword Sect couldn't miss out on it. They had already recruited the two best prodigies of this era, and if they managed to find whatever this phenomenon marked, this generation would be dominated by his sect.
And just the idea of that gave even more excitement to Yue Zifeng, so he wasted no time in preparing to embark to the main hall.
Yue Zifeng, of course, knew that the other three great powers would also sense the phenomenon and prepare accordingly, but he was confident he would be able to win the ensuing fight.
Sadly he didn't know that the cause of this phenomenon was his newest and most treasured disciple, recruiting another disciple for him. And even if Yue Zifeng did, he wouldn't know whether to feel touched or laugh.
Xue Bai was enough of a monster for him to teach, and yet Xue Bai wanted him to take on another even more talented disciple?
While the possibility of doing so was tempting, Yue Zifeng didn't think his poor self was worthy enough to teach such monsters.
Thanks to his profound cultivation base, Yue Zifeng quickly arrived at the main hall where he and the Elders gathered for important matters.
It was built on the border between the Core Region and Inner Sect, making it easy for non-Core Elders to enter without entering the Core Region where they didn't belong.
Even though the Inner and Outer Elders were weaker compared to the Core Elders, their voice was important. They were able to give the usually recluse Core Elders a point of view they wouldn't normally see.
Going into the main hall, Yue Zifeng oddly saw that he wasn't the first person there. It was, weirdly enough, the usually drunk and lazy Elder Yang.
And to make matters even more confusing to Yue Zifeng, Elder Yang, who almost always looked red as a beet from the Spirit Wine he drank like water, looked completely sober without a hint of a blush on his face.
"Elder Yang you?" Yue Zifeng didn't know how to phrase the following sentence.
He couldn't ask why are you suddenly sober, could he?
Thankfully Elder Yang could infer what the Sect Leader was hesitant about and clarified himself.
"Sect Leader, while I do drink a lot, it's because of my physique, not because I like to. And thanks to my physique, I can also expunge any of the alcohol in my system." Elder Yang spoke.
Hearing this, Yue Zifeng did remember Elder Yang's odd physique and how it worked. Apparently, Spirit Wine was even more beneficial to Elder Yang than using Spirit Stones.
However, Elder Yang didn't know the name of his physique or its rank. Yue Zifeng had hypothesized it was at least Middle Black-grade, but beyond that, the sect was in the dark.
So after nodding in understanding, Yue Zifeng went to his seat and waited for the rest of the Elders to arrive.
