Chapter 179: Dragon Transformation Technique

In the world of immortals, in the endless mountains, there are groups of strange beasts, piles of ferocious beasts, and beast kings roar from time to time.

Although those beast kings did not transform into human form, they were not the kind of savage beasts that only knew how to kill. Their wisdom was no different from those big monsters that transformed into human form. Moreover, the strength of these beast kings who were unwilling to transform into human form was often even more terrifying.

In just a few days, they gathered a large number of ferocious beasts at an astonishing speed and formed an army of ferocious beasts to encircle and suppress the foreign monks who broke into their territory. Many monks were killed as a result.

Seeing that a huge beast tide was about to sweep across the entire Immortal World, many cultivators chose to temporarily withdraw from the Immortal World.

However, there are also some cultivators who are very confident in their own strength and have not left, and are still looking for opportunities in the fairy world.

Suddenly, in a quiet stone forest, the void shook, and then Li Zhi, covered in blood, fell out of the void.

"It was a close call. I was nearly torn to pieces by that centipede demon."

Li Zhi stood up from the ground with lingering fear, provoked the powerful beast king, fought against the ferocious beast at the immortal level, stimulated his potential between life and death, and kept walking on the edge of death.

He finally turned himself into a fighting maniac, during which time he was chased by no less than thirty powerful beasts and birds of prey, and had a head-on fierce battle with hundreds of ancient alien species from the first level of the fairy platform.

Although Li Zhi did not want to kill the other party originally, but when the battle got intense, he always had the urge to tear those ferocious beasts to pieces alive.

In battle, one should be fearless. Li Zhi did not suppress the impulse in his heart, so in a very short period of time, he tore apart no less than a hundred ferocious beasts.

Now he was severely injured by a centipede demon. If it were not for the teleportation talisman given by the old palace master, he would have almost been unable to escape.

His body was mixed with the blood of hundreds of beasts, and the murderous aura and evil spirit were intertwined, forming a breath that captivated people.

The clothes seemed to have been soaked in blood, as if a huge sea of ​​blood was flowing through the clothes.

Li Zhi did this on purpose. He did not let the blood from the ferocious beasts spill onto the ground, but instead collected it all with his robes.

At the same time, the snake skin Qiankun bag was filled with the flesh and blood of various ferocious beasts, including the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts torn apart alive by him, the flesh and blood pieces he cut off from powerful beasts, and the flesh and blood of beast kings killed by other powerful beasts that he picked up.

Because the robe had absorbed the blood of hundreds of ferocious beasts, it had already turned into a bloody robe at this moment. At the same time, it emitted a blood mist that wrapped him up, making him look like a blood demon, which was intimidating.

As soon as Li Zhigang appeared in the stone forest, a surge of murderous aura and a strong smell of blood burst out, directly scaring away two disciples of the Qi Shi Mansion who were looking for opportunities in the stone forest.

"They are not acquaintances." Li Zhi watched them leave, then walked towards the center of the stone forest.

Soon they arrived in front of a dark blue lake.

The lake water is clear and without waves, like a piece of crystal embedded in the earth, giving people a peaceful and tranquil mood.

Looking at the figure reflected in the lake, which looked like a demon, Li Zhi took off his bloody clothes and put it into his snakeskin bag.

Then, a stream of water was brought from the lake to cleanse him comprehensively.

Soon, a young Taoist priest wearing a brand new purple Taoist robe appeared by the lake.

After taking a look at the lake, Li Zhi said with satisfaction: "Although the murderous aura is a bit strong, the image of the little Taoist priest has not been damaged in general. Not bad, really not bad."

However, the murderous aura was exposed, and the wisps of bloody smell lingering on his body could not be dissipated, which gave people a somewhat disjointed sense.

This is not what Li Zhi wants.

He was committed to maintaining the appearance of an ordinary little Taoist priest and absolutely did not want anyone to see at first glance that he was someone who was not to be trifled with.

Being simple, unpretentious, friendly and natural are the characteristics that a Taoist should have.

This was not the first time he had come to this stone forest.

He had passed by this place before when he was being chased by a ferocious bird, and felt a special aura in the stone forest.

It's like the place left behind by a saint after he became a saint.

However, he was a little embarrassed when he was being chased last time, and did not stop to observe the specific mysteries in the stone forest.

After walking around the lake, Li Zhi stopped in front of a small hill by the lake.

The mountain is only a hundred feet high, but it exudes a mysterious atmosphere. Although there is no fairy mist, it gives people a sense of ethereal beauty.

The rocky mountain stands out like a pillar of heaven growing out of the ground, straight and round. In the cracks of the rocks on the cliff, several medicinal herbs have taken root and are living a hard life.

As if they were coveting the aura of the great Dao within the stone mountain, they desperately took root in the mountain, giving the stone mountain a tenacious breath of humanity.

Although the age of those spiritual medicines was nearly ten thousand years, they did not emit any spiritual medicine fragrance. It was as if they were growing on a barren rocky mountain. Even after ten thousand years, they still lacked sufficient medicinal power.

But Li Zhi felt a different kind of artistic conception from them.

It is a desire for "Tao" that transcends the desire for power, as if one can give up everything else in order to obtain the Tao.

Li Zhi jumped up, sat on the top of the stone mountain, and began to comprehend the Taoism on the stone mountain.

The soul, which had not yet completely calmed down, soon became peaceful under the purification of the ethereal breath.

The murderous aura that unintentionally emanated from his body began to subside.

However, the faint smell of blood on Li Zhi's body did not dissipate, but instead showed signs of getting stronger.

Soon, Li Zhi, whose mind became empty, came out of the state of enlightenment.

The place where the saints transformed into the Tao was indeed extraordinary, even more extraordinary than the saintly cave of the old mansion lord. It was full of mysterious beauty and imprinted with the true meaning of the Tao. When practicing inside, all things in the world run smoothly. It was easy for people to have an epiphany and immerse themselves in the realm of the Tao.

However, Li Zhi did not believe that the saint who attained enlightenment here did so while sitting on the top of the mountain.

There might be a hidden cave of a saint here.

Sitting on the top of the mountain and overlooking the earth, the quiet and calm lake suddenly gave Li Zhi an indescribable feeling of weirdness.

It seems that its existence is a bit abrupt and does not match the surrounding environment.

"Could it be that the Saint's cave is at the bottom of the lake?"

Li Zhi jumped directly from the top of a mountain that was a hundred feet high and jumped into the lake.

The lake was very deep, like an abyss. Li Zhi dived for several thousand meters before reaching the bottom of the lake.

As he expected, this lake was not a natural lake, but a dry abyss.

There are many traces of artificial excavation on the rock walls around the lake bottom, and there are also several caves emitting faint dragon energy.

All the dragon energy gathered in one direction, as if nurturing supreme treasures beneath the earth.

Following the direction of the dragon energy flow, Li Zhi passed through a dark cave, then dived again, and finally saw a crystal palace.

In the Crystal Palace, there hangs a plaque written in divine language with the words "Dragon Palace" inscribed on it.

Inside the Dragon Palace, there are two silver-white dragons lying quietly in a dragon pool. The dragon vein energy of the earth is constantly gathered in the dragon pool, nourishing the bodies of the two silver-white dragons.

Unfortunately, there was not a trace of life in the two dragons, as if they had been dead for tens of thousands of years.

However, after death, the body did not decay. Instead, it was constantly nourished by the dragon energy and seemed to show signs of turning into jade.

After observing for a long time outside the Crystal Palace, Li Zhi concluded that the bodies of the two silver dragons were already evolving towards natural treasures.

If one day in the future one could be reborn through psychic powers, he would become extremely powerful.

What he lacked was the materials for refining weapons, and the flesh of the two dragons should be able to be used to refine a dragon whisk.

Afterwards, Li Zhi began to break the Taoist pattern restrictions on the Crystal Palace.

During this process, the Luoyang shovel worked wonders.

Soon, an array base was destroyed, causing a gap in the array on the Crystal Palace.

Li Zhi used the art of swimming dragon and drilled through the gap in the formation.

After entering, Li Zhi found that the space inside the Crystal Palace was much larger than he thought. In addition to the Dragon Transformation Pond in the center, there were four closed doors, and no one knew where they led.

Li Zhi did not move the two silver dragons in the Dragon Pond, but walked towards a door on the left.

The restriction on the door was not strong, and Li Zhi broke it easily.

It was a cave for storing Buddhist scriptures, but there were no Buddhist scriptures inside. There were only three empty bookshelves left.

It seems that the scriptures here have been moved away long ago.

After leaving the Sutra Cave, Li Zhi opened the next portal, which led to the alchemy room. There was still nothing there except for a pool of underground fire that had been extinguished for who knows how many years.

After opening the remaining two portals, a palm-sized silver dragon ornament was found only in the enlightenment room.

It seems that this crystal palace is not the place where the ancient saint practiced Taoism, nor is it the place where he preached Taoism.

All signs indicate that the Crystal Palace was moved here by later generations.

Coming to the Hualong Pond, Li Zhi observed the silver dragon ornament in his hand and the two silver dragons in the pond.

Suddenly I realized that the two silver dragons looked very similar to the silver dragon ornaments.

Li Zhi immediately sat down and began to appreciate the silver dragon ornament. His intuition told him that this silver dragon ornament that was specially left behind was not simple.

However, no matter whether one used the divine eyes or the divine consciousness to observe, no one could see what was special about the silver dragon ornament. It seemed as if it was just an ordinary ornament.

"Weird!"

Afterwards, Li Zhi carefully drew a stream of dragon energy from the dragon pool and injected it into the ornament, but the ornament still did not respond.

Li Zhi even tried using the power of his own aura, but still couldn't find anything special about the ornament.

But Li Zhi absolutely did not believe that it was just an ordinary ornament.

"Dragon? Perhaps the Golden Dragon can do the trick."

Suddenly, Li Zhi remembered that there was a golden dragon in his body.

Afterwards, the golden dragon flew out from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, and forced out a drop of special dragon blood onto the silver dragon ornament.

The moment the dragon blood sank into the ornament, the metallic silver dragon immediately emitted a burst of silver light.

Then Li Zhi saw a mysterious scripture in the silver light and quickly memorized it in his mind.

When Li Zhi memorized all the scriptures, the silver dragon ornament instantly decayed into a ball of dust.

"It's actually the 'Dragon Transformation Technique' left behind by the Demon King." Li Zhi showed a hint of surprise.

The first sentence of "The Art of Transforming into a Dragon" reads that all spirits in heaven and earth can be transformed into real dragons.

It does not seem to be a method specially prepared for the demon race. Although it is not a specific ancient scripture for cultivation, this "Dragon Transformation Method" can allow creatures to forge a body comparable to that of a real dragon. For creatures with ordinary qualifications, it may be more important than specific ancient scriptures for cultivation.

Among them are methods of creating a dragon body, shaping a dragon soul, refining dragon blood, forging dragon bones, seizing dragon spirits, condensing dragon scales, and other all-round methods to allow living creatures to evolve into true dragons.

After reading "The Art of Transforming into a Dragon", Li Zhi discovered that the golden dragon he had forged only had a dragon shape. It lacked a dragon soul, dragon spirit, dragon blood, dragon bones, and even real dragon scales and dragon claws. It was not a real dragon at all.

Li Zhi also saw the clues about the two silver dragons in the Dragon Transformation Pool. They used to be flood dragons, but now they are using the power of the dragon veins between heaven and earth to forge the bodies of real dragons.

In the future, once they become psychic, they will be powerful beings possessing the bodies of supreme true dragons.

Li Zhi did not hesitate at all. He took out the Hundred Herbs Map and took away the two silver dragons along with the dragon pool where they were sleeping.

After the Dragon Pool was taken away, a big hole appeared underground again, and a mysterious aura emanated from the hole.

"It turns out that the real saint's cave is here."

Then, Li Zhi jumped into the big hole.

It's a pity that there are no holy weapons, no immortal treasures, and no ancient scriptures used by saints to practice. It seems that the things left by the ancient saints have been taken away long ago, and only a Taoist platform with extremely rich Taoist power remains in the cave.

Moreover, the Huadao Cave where the Taoist platform is located seems to be located directly below the stone mountain beside the lake outside.

Sitting cross-legged on the Taoist platform, Li Zhi quickly entered a state of enlightenment.

He began to carefully comprehend the gains from the previous battles. Although his Taoism did not improve, he could clearly feel that he seemed to have accumulated some special Tao rhyme. The laws he comprehended had some inexplicable changes as a result, as if his foundation in the Tao was consolidated again.

All his talents were officially converted into strength, and his combat power was basically stabilized in the eight forbidden areas.

However, the smell of blood on his body still could not be dissipated, which made Li Zhi feel a little strange.

Soon, Li Zhi came up with a solution.

He took out the Star God Iron Alchemy Furnace, then took out the blood-stained robe from the snake skin Qiankun bag and threw it into the alchemy furnace. He also cut the flesh and blood of hundreds of ferocious beasts and put them into the furnace, and then poured some divine spring water into the alchemy furnace.

Then, Li Zhi began to boil the flesh and blood.

"The Xiantian Changsheng Gong" records a method of bathing in the essence and blood of all spirits to strengthen one's own life essence.

Since it was impossible to get rid of the bloody smell, Li Zhi simply refined it all.

When the flesh and blood of all the beasts were completely cooked into a pot of flesh and blood porridge, Li Zhi began to add auxiliary spiritual medicine into the alchemy furnace.

As more and more elixirs were added, the porridge of blood and flesh began to become clear.

Two days later, Li Zhi brewed a pot of soup that exuded the fragrance of blood medicine.

Then he jumped directly into the decoction and began to practice in blood.

As the mysterious skill was running, strands of special life essence in the blood medicine were refined and absorbed by Li Zhi.

When the pool of blood medicine was completely refined by him, Li Zhi's life essence directly increased by 10%.

And the smell of blood on his body also completely dissipated.

After coming out of the alchemy furnace, Li Zhi showed a hint of surprise.

The effect of bathing in the blood of all spirits to increase life essence was even stronger than he had imagined.

Perhaps it was because it was the first time he had fully practiced bathing in the blood of all spirits, the powerful effect made Li Zhi quite tempted, but he quickly gave up the idea of ​​slaughtering all spirits and taking their essence and blood to bathe himself.

This method is against the harmony of nature and will only bring disaster to yourself if you do it too much.

However, after calculating the flesh and blood of hundreds of ferocious beasts stored in the snake-skin bag, Li Zhi was very happy that he should be able to carry out this level of bloody training two or three times.

Afterwards, Li Zhi put away the Taoist platform and used it as a bench on weekdays.

After pouring out the waste liquid and residue in the alchemy furnace, Li Zhi took back the alchemy furnace and left the sage's cave underground.

Soon reappeared in Crystal Palace.

But Li Zhi was not in a hurry to leave the Crystal Palace. After all, he didn't know to what extent the beast tide outside had developed. It would not be a good idea to go out rashly.

He planned to cook a pot of tonic soup in the Crystal Palace to reward himself.

During that period of time, he had been fighting all the time and had not had a good rest for even half an hour.

Li Zhi still had a lot of fresh flesh and blood torn from the beast kings in his hands. Those beast kings were all ancient alien species. Their flesh and blood were rich in life essence. After simple preparation and stewing, they would become top-notch delicacies.

Just do it, wash, cut, stew, after a series of work is completed,
A pot of tonic soup with magical herbs as seasoning was born.

The aroma of meat filled the air and even wafted out of the Crystal Palace.
