Chapter 175: Dragon Transformation

In the Qi Shi Mansion, many geniuses who lost their dragon marrow were unwilling to accept this and began to inquire about Li Zhi's true identity.

These geniuses from the five major domains generally possess the ability to fight across three or four smaller realms.

A few geniuses at the monstrous level even have the power to fight across four or five small realms.

Some extremely talented people even possess the ability to fight across five or six small realms.

As for whether there is any peerless genius who can fight across the eight small realms, such a genius has not been exposed since the establishment of the mansion.

Theoretically, there should be someone, but outsiders have no way of knowing who it is.

In this issue, the Qi Shi Mansion has been established for less than half a year, and it is still being tested which cultivator is a true genius and which cultivator is just in name only.

Although Southern Demon, Northern Emperor and others are famous, most young geniuses do not think they are worse than those people.

On the contrary, it was Li Zhi who suddenly appeared and blatantly set up a gambling arena in the Qi Shi Mansion, and was not stopped by the powerful people in the Qi Shi Mansion, which easily made people make associations.

Is he a disciple of Qi Shi Mansion like them, or is he a powerful person from Qi Shi Mansion disguised as a young man in order to test the results of their cultivation?
Li Zhi's actions are somewhat puzzling.

While everyone was talking and thinking wildly, Li Zhi returned to the old master's sage cave with satisfaction, bringing hundreds of drops of ordinary dragon marrow and dozens of drops of top-grade dragon marrow.

The price of a drop of top-grade dragon marrow can generally be sold for more than 100,000 kilograms of pure source outside, and a drop of ordinary dragon marrow is also worth thousands or even tens of thousands of kilograms of pure source.

A gambling fight that lasted only half a day allowed Li Zhi to win dragon marrow worth tens of millions of kilograms of pure source. This kind of transaction was even faster than robbing money.

Sure enough, there is not a single poor person among these geniuses carefully selected from the five major domains, and almost all of them have powerful forces supporting them.

This is just a good deal for Li Zhi. If he can come a few more times, he won't have to wait until next year to achieve the Great Perfection of Transformation into a Dragon.

When Li Zhi entered the cave to refine the dragon marrow, Duan De, who had changed his appearance, also slipped over quietly. However, before he reached the old lord's cave, he was discovered by the powerful man guarding the back mountain.

Duan De turned around and left without saying anything, but there was no disappointment in his eyes. Instead, he showed a little surprise, and muttered, "Little Li Zhi really gave me a big surprise. It seems that he can be of great help in this trip to the Immortal Palace."

As Duan De turned to leave, the scene of Duan De turning to leave appeared in front of the old mansion master in the cave, and he asked Li Zhi: "Changshou, do you know this disciple?"

Seeing the fat white cultivator, Li Zhi's eyes lit up and he smiled, "I know him. He is a peerless genius. Looking at the entire Qishi Mansion, no one's talent is better than his."

The old mansion master was a little surprised. He knew how proud Li Zhi was in his heart. He never compared his own cultivation with the geniuses of the time, but took the realm that the great emperor could reach when he was young as his goal. Although he had never evaluated the young geniuses in the Qi Shi Mansion, from the content of their discussions, it could be seen that Li Zhi did not take these geniuses seriously.

Now, he heard Li Zhi praising a young cultivator so much, which made the old palace master a little surprised.

Just when the old mansion lord was about to observe Duan De carefully, Duan De seemed to sense something, and left the back mountain in a flash, and a mysterious power burst out from his body, blocking the old mansion lord's sight.

Even a saint couldn't see through Duan De's physique, which made the old mansion master feel quite curious. He smiled and said, "This little fat guy has something."

Duan De seemed to be frightened. He went straight back to his own cave and activated the isolation array in the cave before he said, "Damn, the Qishi Mansion is really terrifying. Is there really an ancient sage in charge?"

Fortunately, the old mansion master did not have the habit of spying on his disciples. When he saw Duan De return to the cave, he withdrew his gaze and said to Li Zhi: "Changshou, don't do the contest again."

Li Zhi asked in some surprise, "Why is this?" He was planning to set up the fighting arena a few more times to let these young people from Qi Shi Mansion experience what it means to be beaten by society.

The old mansion master looked at Li Zhi meaningfully and said, "I'm afraid you'll wipe out the spirits of those young people. They are all good seedlings in the five regions. Although not all of them have the qualities of a saint, most of them still have the qualities of a king. When they grow up, they will all be the backbones of the major forces. Although the major forces are large and powerful, it is not easy to cultivate a genius who can meet the qualifications to enter the House of Strange Men. You can't destroy their Taoism. The Dragon Transformation Secret Realm is a realm where these young people can rise to the top. It is better to let them practice with high morale than to let them despair."

Li Zhi curled his lips and said, "If they can't even bear this little blow, then I think they should go home and have children as soon as possible. Replace them with a group of young people with firm minds."

The old mansion master smiled and said, "Longevity, you cannot expect all the cultivators in the world to be like you. Remember, dragons have their own ways, mice have their own ways, true dragons do not associate with fish and turtles, and phoenixes do not fly with sparrows. Your cultivation and knowledge have far surpassed ordinary geniuses. From now on, you must learn to enjoy solitude and endure loneliness. One day in the future, you will find that there is no one in the world who can talk to you."

Li Zhi understood the old mansion master's intention, so he nodded and said, "Changshou will remember the senior's teachings."

Seeing that Li Zhi listened to his advice, the old mansion master asked, "Changshou, you sent a message back to me. Is there something important?"

Li Zhi's expression changed, and he asked seriously, "Senior, I found that taking dragon marrow directly does not have the highest utilization rate, so I have thought of a more efficient way to use it. I would like to ask you to consider it for me. Your tavern is crowded, so I can only invite you back to see if the method I came up with can have an impact on the immortal veins of Qishi Mansion."

The old mansion master was a little surprised. What kind of cultivation method could actually affect the immortal veins of the Qi Shi Mansion?

You know, there are dense holy formations in the Qi Shi Mansion. Even if a saint comes to attack, it will not harm the immortal veins at all.

This aroused the interest of the old mansion master, and he asked, "What is the method?"

Li Zhi pointed at the cave in front of him and said, "This cave of yours was transformed from a top-grade dragon cave. I dare to guess that a divine essence must have been born here in the past, and there must be a dragon pool inside. So, I want to use the dragon pool to practice. Using the dragon marrow as a guide, the dragon vein as a furnace, and the myriad ways of heaven and earth as fire, I can use the power of nature to breed a dragon in the human body."

After Li Zhi told the old mansion master his ideas and cultivation methods in detail, the old mansion master fell into silence.

After a moment, the old mansion master asked with a serious look: "Changshou, tell me the truth, have you obtained the inheritance of Master Yuan Tianshi?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "I have never practiced any source technique. I just received guidance from a master and was taught a Feng Shui secret technique. I just have some understanding of the dragon veins of the earth."

The old mansion master seemed to be relieved and said, "The inheritance of Master Yuan Tianshi who has not practiced is the best."

Li Zhi asked curiously: "Senior, is there any hidden danger in Yuan Tianshi's inheritance?"

The old mansion master said with a serious look: "Master Yuan Tianshi's later years are ominous, and all kinds of strange events will happen. Your idea just now is actually 70% similar to the dragon-pregnancy secret technique of Master Yuan Tianshi's lineage, so I am worried. There is a record in my Qishi Mansion that Master Yuan Tianshi can use the power of the earth's dragon veins to breed immortal elixirs in his body. He has never gained extraordinary power and lifespan, but this practice has great hidden dangers. It seems that the Green Emperor has paid attention to this matter."

Li Zhi instantly understood what the old mansion master was referring to, and asked, "Then is my way of cultivation still okay?"

The old mansion master thought for a moment and said, "Of course you can, but it's too dangerous. If you're not careful, you'll be attacked by the myriad ways of heaven and earth, and suffer Dao injuries. Unless you have an imperial soldier to suppress your true body, I don't recommend you to practice in this way."

Li Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Senior, I accidentally got a method to carve a divine talisman, which can ensure that I am not affected by the myriad laws of heaven and earth. However, my cultivation is too weak to carve the divine talisman. I wonder if you can carve it for me?"

The old mansion master asked curiously, "What kind of magic talisman can actually ensure that you are not affected by the myriad ways of heaven and earth?"

Li Zhi said confidently: "The divine talisman that suppresses the way."

"The Dao-suppressing Talisman?" The old mansion master had obviously never heard of this kind of talisman, so he said, "Tell me about it."

Li Zhi nodded, and then showed the old mansion master an extremely mysterious Taoist diagram.

After seeing the Dao Diagram, the old mansion master showed a strange look on his face. After a long while, he asked, "What is the relationship between this Dao Diagram and the Holy Fighting Method?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter."

Seeing that Li Zhi denied it, the old mansion master stopped asking questions and took out a blank talisman paper made of sacred animal skin and began to carve Taoist patterns on it.

Soon, according to the Dao map, the Dao-suppressing Divine Talisman was carved out by the old mansion master. The saint's methods were indeed extraordinary. After carving the divine talisman, the old mansion master seemed to be unsatisfied and said, "This divine talisman seems to be able to reversely deduce the legendary fighting sacred method, which can control the myriad ways of heaven and earth and turn them into one's own use. Changshou, you are really amazing. You can actually comprehend this kind of divine talisman."

Li Zhi quickly said, "It is the Infinite Heavenly Venerable who is amazing. I was just lucky enough to get a Heavenly Venerable Dao Diagram and realized this divine talisman from it."

The old mansion master said, "I see. The legendary holy fighting method is the supreme secret technique created by the Infinite Heavenly Venerable in the mythological era. It seems that the rumors are true. Now that you have this magic talisman, you can practice boldly. I also want to see which is stronger, the human dragon born from the dragon veins of the earth or the human dragon realized by the cultivator himself."

Afterwards, the old mansion master opened the restriction in the deepest part of the cave, and a dragon pool appeared before them.

Seven drops of top-grade dragon marrow have already been produced in the dragon pool, and it seems that it is still being produced.

The old mansion master said: "The dragon pond here can produce twelve drops of top-grade dragon marrow every ten thousand years. It is one of the best dragon caves in Qishi Mansion."

Li Zhi said: "Please rest assured, senior, I will not let this dragon cave be damaged."

Afterwards, under the protection of the old mansion lord, Li Zhi came to the dragon's lair and took out the mini dragon's nest.

When the old mansion master saw the mini dragon nest in Li Zhi's hand, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes and he said, "Changshou, is this a replica of the Chaos Dragon Nest?"

Li Zhi nodded and said, "It is indeed a replica of the Chaos Dragon Nest. I used the dragon wood from the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest to make a replica of the Dragon Nest. It can harness the energy of the dragon veins of the earth and let the energy of the dragon veins of the earth naturally gather into the Dragon Nest."

The old mansion master nodded and said, "What a great opportunity. With the Dragon's Nest in hand, the causal backlash from manipulating the dragon veins of the earth will be weakened to the extreme. There is no need to worry about the ominous things that ordinary geomancers will encounter in the future."

Afterwards, Li Zhi placed the mini dragon nest in the dragon pond, and the originally calm dragon pond immediately began to gather dragon energy from all directions.

Then, he poured all the dragon marrow in his body into the dragon's nest.

"Senior, I'm ready."

"You can rest assured that I am here."

Li Zhi transformed into a golden dragon and flew into the mini dragon's nest. After shrinking his body, he let the dragon marrow wrap himself up.

At the same time, a divine talisman appeared on his forehead to prevent his soul from being overwhelmed by the myriad forces of heaven and earth.

After seeing that everything was ready, the old mansion master began to use the saintly magic power to activate the Dao patterns in the mini dragon nest according to the method Li Zhi had previously instructed.

Soon, a mysterious dragon egg appeared in the dragon pool.

Inside the dragon egg, dragon marrow and dragon energy seemed to be drawing all the ways of heaven and earth, and began to flow into the body of the golden dragon that Li Zhi had transformed into.

For a moment, the mysterious sound of chanting filled the entire cave.

The old mansion master waved his hand to activate the holy way magic circle in the cave, and then blocked out the mysterious chanting sound.

However, the calamity clouds in the sky seemed to be slowly gathering.

When the old master saw that Li Zhi's condition in the dragon egg had stabilized, he walked out of the cave.

Then, as he watched the calamity clouds gradually gather in the sky, a trace of worry flashed in the old mansion master's eyes.

It can be confirmed that when Li Zhi appears again, the calamity clouds will have accumulated completely.

The longer it drags on, the more calamity clouds will accumulate.

After seeing the calamity clouds in the sky, the powerful people in Qishi Mansion all showed a look of confusion.

The old mansion master sent a message to them directly, telling them not to worry, as this was normal.

Soon, the students of Qishi Mansion also saw the calamity clouds accumulating in the sky behind the mountain and began to discuss this strange astronomical phenomenon.

A heavenly calamity usually comes very quickly, and it is rare for calamity clouds to accumulate.

Half a month later, the calamity clouds in the sky had accumulated to a level that a cultivator at the first level of the Immortal Realm could withstand.

After a month, the calamity clouds had accumulated to a level that a half-step powerful being could withstand, and were about to reach an intensity that only a powerful being could withstand.

Upon seeing this, the Lord of Qishi Mansion personally came to the old Lord's cave and asked him, "Grandmaster, what kind of magical power is Changshou cultivating, and why did he attract a cloud of disaster?"

The old mansion lord brought the current mansion lord to the Dragon Pond. When he saw Li Zhi transforming in the Dragon Pond, he was shocked.

"Don't worry, Changshou has pure human bloodline, and there is no blood inheritance of the ancient race in his body. The reason why he can transform into a dragon is because of the skills he practiced."

"It's incredible. His aura now is comparable to that of a half-step great power. It seems to be even purer than his aura on the Yao Chi battlefield. The dragon energy in his body seems to have been sublimated." Seeing the golden dragon in the Dragon Pool that has grown to nine feet and nine feet long, the current master of the Qi Shi Mansion spoke.

The old mansion master looked up at the intensity of the thunder clouds in the sky and said, "I am worried now, can he survive the thunder tribulation?"

The current Palace Master said: "The intensity of the Heavenly Tribulation is about to reach the level of a great power. And Changshou's cultivation is only at the ninth level of Dragon Transformation, which is equivalent to crossing nine small realms. I wonder if Changshou can withstand it."

The old mansion master said with a serious look: "Unless Changshou can enter the Eternal Forbidden Realm, it is more likely to be dangerous if he experiences the great power-level calamity. It seems that we cannot let the calamity accumulate. It is time to wake him up."

The current palace master said: "The transformation of longevity does not seem to be complete?"

The old mansion master shook his head and said, "Imperfection is also a kind of experience for him."

After saying that, the old mansion master cast a spell at Li Zhi in the dragon pool, and Li Zhi, who was originally wandering in his trance, woke up instantly.

Before he could fully come to his senses, a feeling of impending disaster arose in his heart.

The old mansion master said directly to Li Zhi: "Changshou, your heavenly tribulation is coming, use your heart to overcome it."

Afterwards, the old mansion master waved his hand and moved the mini dragon nest and Li Zhi to a deserted wasteland three thousand miles away from Qishi Mansion.

"Boom!" As soon as it appeared in the wasteland, the calamity cloud seemed to have crossed time and space and appeared directly above Li Zhi's head. Then, thousands of divine thunders exploded completely like a dam bursting.

In an instant, everything within a hundred miles was covered by purple-black thunder.

"Ao!" Immediately afterwards, a deafening dragon roar was heard from the sea of ​​thunder.

Then, a golden dragon rushed out from the dragon's nest, opened its mouth and swallowed the dragon's nest into its stomach, and then rushed towards the sea of ​​thunder in the sky.

At this moment, the intensity of the thunder tribulation finally reached the level of great power.
