Chapter 514 Special Changes
"I never do anything I'm not sure I can do," Chen Beiwu said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Aji stared at Chen Beiwu for a long time, then closed his eyes:
"Tell me, how should I cooperate with you?"
"Get yourself into top shape during this time, and leave the rest to me."
Chen Beiwu's words were concise and to the point, without mentioning the divine power of destiny and fetal manipulation.
"Okay, let Scheller use his profound powers to help me organize the five elements, and give me another month to prepare." Aji closed his eyes.
Chen Beiwu nodded and looked at Xue Le.
"Hey."
Schiller understood, put his hands together, and activated the Five Elements Forest.
Unlike the Golden Egg and the Iron Egg, the Demon King's True Domain, which awakened its bloodline after advancing to the fourth realm, has already been integrated into the Five Qi Yuan Forest Profound Connection and will not easily manifest unless it is activated with all its might.
However, fully activating the Five Qi Yuan Forest consumes too much energy, and even requires absorbing the spiritual essence of the precious and mysterious medicines within the Yuan Forest. Unless absolutely necessary, Xue Le is unwilling to use it lightly.
But this was a crucial moment. Even if Schiller cherished the precious medicines, he knew how important this transformation of Aji's bloodline was to Chen Beiwu. "Buzz!"
Five elements of mysterious light appeared on Schiller's skin.
As the mystical light swirled and flowed, a world brimming with spiritual energy, nurturing countless spiritual herbs, gradually materialized behind it.
"Splash!"
The Five Elements Forest radiated brilliant light, completely enveloping Aji's body.
During this period, with each cycle of the radiance, Aji's energy becomes stronger.
One hundred and fifty-six years of cultivation!
Two hundred and sixty-six years of cultivation!
Three hundred and ninety-nine years of cultivation!
As time passed, the number of basic Dao traces within Aji's body reached four hundred and ninety-nine, just one step away from becoming a third-realm demon general. "Hey!"
Schiller took a step back, and the Five Qi Yuan Forest behind him dissipated.
Aji's internal depletion and injuries were too severe. Even with its best efforts to heal him at all costs, it could only restore a few hundred years of cultivation. Although this cultivation was weak and could not be maintained for long, it was enough for Aji to unleash its innate profound abilities.
boom!
boom!
boom!
A month passed in the blink of an eye. Aji opened his eyes, and black and white light appeared deep in his pupils. His aura suddenly broke through the level of a third-realm demon general and reached the level of a fourth-realm demon king.
"In my current condition, I can only last for an hour at most."
Aji transmitted his thoughts telepathically: "If this time is exceeded, I may fall into a deep sleep due to the backlash of my bloodline."
"An hour is enough."
Chen Beiwu moved his divine sense and probed the two purple energies within the chaotic world, then formed hand seals.
"The beginning of destiny originated in the primordial chaos."
"The thoughts of all beings are the cause, and the actions of all spirits are the result."
"When cause and effect intertwine, destiny arises."
"Fate ordains the embryo, enlightening three thousand beings!"
Chen Beiwu opened his eyes and pointed a finger at Aji.
Fate has its predetermined course, and responsibilities are passed down through generations.
Chen Beiwu's ability to activate the power of destiny and fetal manipulation was not without limitations.
The more karmic ties a being has with him, the stronger the effect of his divine guidance.
Conversely, those with a shallow karmic connection to Chen Beiwu will experience extremely weak effects from the divine guidance, possibly even less effective than the guidance from the Primordial Profound Power. However, Aji, as a beast that shares Chen Beiwu's life and death, will naturally receive the full benefits of the divine guidance from the Fate-Controlling Embryo Divine Power.
"boom!"
Chen Beiwu pointed a finger, and a wisp of purple mist within the chaotic world suddenly vanished.
Immediately, a deafening roar resounded, causing Chen Beiwu's spiritual sea to hum and his primordial true essence to be consumed frantically.
"This is?"
Having received the divine power of destiny, Aji's body trembled slightly, its mind clear, and it could clearly feel the restlessness deep within its bloodline. Yes, that's right. Even though the Blazing Sun True Venerable had taken away nearly 99% of its bloodline origin and a portion of its dragon soul power, the true spirit hidden deep within its bloodline had never disappeared.
Realizing this, Aji did not hesitate and focused his mind on the true spirit deep within his bloodline, causing a dramatic change in his aura.
Rumble!
In an instant, Golden Egg, Iron Egg, Schiller, and Zhiling all felt their bodies sink as they sensed an indescribable, ancient dragon's might emanating from Aji. This dragon's might was so strong that even Golden Egg, who was also a dragon, trembled, gasped for breath, and was unable to move.
"Woof."
Tie Dan lay prone, letting out a low growl.
This is the instinctive awe that living beings feel when faced with beings that are far beyond their own dimensions!
"Something's not right. Why is it just a change in the flow of energy? Why haven't Aji's soul and physical body undergone any transformation?"
Chen Beiwu frowned slightly, his mind racing.
Could it be that one wisp of purple energy is not enough, and he needs to activate the Fate-Controlling Embryo Divine Power to use another wisp of purple energy to allow Aji to complete the bloodline reshaping? The next second, Aji closed his eyes tightly, and the ancient dragon might emanating from his body grew stronger and stronger, even dividing into two completely different, yet mutually competitive, terrifying true dragon pressures.
Amidst the clash between these two powerful dragon energies, the Aji energy that Chen Beiwu was familiar with grew increasingly weak, gradually becoming imperceptible, even beyond the reach of the Tongcan Contract.
"It failed?"
Chen Beiwu's eyes darkened, and without hesitation, he activated the Heavenly End Scene [Great Sun Shining Five Qi Revolving Three Phases Heaven and Earth Ascending Profound Primordial Chaos Scene] to help Aji guide the power of his bloodline and prevent him from being intimidated by the true spirit of his bloodline.
Aji did not resist and instinctively followed Chen Beiwu in circulating the Fellowship Immortal Technique through the Fellowship Contract.
In an instant, the two surging True Dragon Qi within Aji's body gradually stagnates at a visible speed, but the Qi belonging to Aji does not increase in the slightest.
"That won't do!"
Chen Beiwu frowned slightly, and with a thought, he combined the Immortal Alliance's Heavenly Treasures Refining Method to refine each precious and mysterious herb into Aji's body, helping him to increase his qi and, in turn, devour the pressure from the two true dragons.
"Eek?" (Did it work?)
Zhiling narrowed her eyes and noticed that Aji's fur and skin were beginning to change.
The fur was the first to detach, disappearing into the void like ink, and then the exposed skin, radiating vitality, began to shrink and vanish.
No, that's not right!
Zhiling probed with her divine sense and realized that her cultivation was limited. She almost mistook the reshaping of Aji's bloodline for a return to the origin of flesh and blood.
Seeing this, Chen Beiwu felt a sense of relief.
This was the first time he had used the power of destiny manipulation, and the fact that nothing unexpected happened was the best possible outcome.
"roar!"
But in the next instant, a sudden change occurred. The extreme heat emanating from within his body caused Aji to roar involuntarily, and his pupils turned white. "This is bad! The Gan Yang and Kun Yin bloodlines are completely out of balance, almost entirely dominated by the Gan Yang dragon blood!"
With the resonance of the same contract, Chen Beiwu instantly sensed the abnormal bloodline change in Aji's body.
"Hold your breath and concentrate, follow me to activate the Primordial True Azure Flower Controlling Myriad Tribulations and Myriad Spirits Immortal Technique!"
Chen Beiwu attempted to guide Aji's bloodline using magical techniques, but found the effect to be minimal.
At the same time, Aji Lingming could clearly feel the Kunyin Black Dragon bloodline within his body rapidly dissipating.
On the contrary, the Dry Yang Dragon Blood gained the upper hand, manifesting countless surging Dry Yang True Fires, attempting to burn away its soul, body, inner core, and everything else, reshaping it into a Dry Yang Dragon Body.
"Did it fail?"
Although there was resentment in Aji's eyes, he was still able to remain calm.
It placed its hopes on Chen Zi'ang, a mere Nascent Soul True Monarch, which was inherently a risky gamble, only to ultimately lose!
It has to accept defeat; it's not a dragon that can't accept defeat.
At worst, it can use its innate profound abilities to undergo a spiritual rebirth, sleep for a thousand years to recover its vitality, and then compete with the Gan Yang Dragon Soul for its physical body.
"Run away!"
Aji transmitted his thoughts telepathically.
Although Chen Zi'ang did not fulfill his promise, one thing is undeniable:
Without Chen Ziang's help, its fate would have been certain death. It would have been impossible for it to recover even a trace of its vitality in such a short time and gain the ability to use its innate profound powers to live another life.
Once it falls into a deep slumber, the awakened and possessing the physical body's soul will burn everything in its path to ashes.
"escape?"
Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed, and he immediately rejected Aji's suggestion.
Since one attempt at using the divine power of destiny to conceive failed, let's try again!
He refused to believe that even after expending two streams of purple energy and activating the power of destiny-enhancing fetus, he still couldn't save Aji.
Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu moved his mind and, together with Jin Dan, Tie Dan, and Xue Le, entered the Ten Thousand Spirits Calamity Transformation state. His aura surged, and then he raised his right hand and used the Fate Mandate Consecration Divine Power to touch Aji's forehead again.
With a single finger, all things fall silent!
Feeling the Kunyin Black Dragon bloodline beginning to boil within his body, Aji had a sudden realization.
The universe revolves, and yin and yang interact.
It may be able to take this opportunity to completely integrate the Yin and Yang bloodlines within its body, and remove the dragon soul and bloodline lingering problems.
Thinking of this, Aji's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he used the profound technique [Yin Yang Self-Verification] that he had developed after being trapped in the ruins of Lieyang for tens of thousands of years.
In an instant, a popping sound like popping beans emanated from Aji's body. Two great forces of yin and yang, one white and one black, completely enveloped him, transforming him into a cocoon of light. Boom!
boom!
boom!
The cocoon of light trembled slightly, collapsed inward, and condensed into a trace of boundless power.
This seemingly weak trace of boundless power exerts a terrifying suppressive force on the Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth.
In an instant, the radiance on the surface of the cocoon dissipated, revealing a giant egg that was perfectly round like a chicken.
This egg is as large as a water vat, and it has two distinct colors of spiritual light. The left side is pure white spiritual light, and the right side is dark black spiritual light. The light flickers and changes, just like the rising and setting of the sun and moon, the rotation of yin and yang, or like breathing.
At the moment the giant egg was formed, the sky outside suddenly darkened, and countless thunderclouds gathered, radiating a majestic heavenly power.
Within a radius of tens of thousands of miles of Chen Beiwu's cave, all sentient beings subconsciously looked up at the sky, filled with fear.
The mountains and rivers are now obscured, and the city of Jisong is now in ruins.
The Nascent Soul cultivator of the Mirror Moon Sect, who was in charge of guarding the city, sensed something, looked up at the sky, and looked surprised.
Outside Jisong City, streaks of cultivators shot into the sky, using their divine senses to explore their surroundings and investigate the source of the heavenly tribulation.
"Is this a Golden Core cultivator proving their Dao to become a Nascent Soul True Monarch?"
"No, such aura is far beyond what a Nascent Soul True Monarch can match!"
"Could it be that the remains of an ancient cave have been discovered?"
Hearing the commotion and discussions within the city, the Nascent Soul True Monarch of Jisong City frowned slightly. Without leaving his seclusion, he took out a jade slip and sent a message to his sect: "A fourth-tier Chilong Demon King is suspected to be transforming into a dragon deep within the Jisong Mountains!"
After the information was released, the Nascent Soul True Monarch closed his eyes and did not investigate further.
The reason is simple: the world of the Earthly Realm has undergone tremendous changes. Those dragons that attempt to transform into dragons are all the strongest among the demon kings, comparable to a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch. Even if such beings are undergoing tribulation or have failed to transform into dragons, they are not something a Nascent Soul Early Stage True Monarch can afford to offend.
If he goes there out of curiosity, he will undoubtedly be courting death. He would be better off being cautious and cultivating in peace.
The heavenly tribulation has ended.
"Huh?" (Did it succeed or fail?)
The golden egg lowered its dragon head, curiously looking at the giant egg in front of it.
If it didn't know it was inappropriate, it would have wanted to tap the eggshell with its dragon claw to test its strength.
"It should be successful."
After saying this, Chen Beiwu's expression changed slightly. He closed his eyes and began to use the Primordial Immortal Technique to refine the feedback of the Co-existing Contract.
Seeing this, the four little guys, Jin Dan, Tie Dan, Xue Le, and Zhi Ling, had no time to pay attention to the giant egg that could ignore the power of heavenly thunder. They all circulated their cultivation techniques to help Chen Beiwu refine the feedback of the Fellowship Contract, while improving their own cultivation.
Time flies, and three months have passed in no time.
During this time, with the formation providing cover, even if Foundation Establishment cultivators received missions from their sects to investigate the source of the Heavenly Tribulation and passed by this area, they were unable to detect the deeply hidden cave.
"roar!"
The golden egg opened its three pairs of dragon eyes, revealing an excited expression.
What an exaggerated feedback from the same-parameter contract!
It merely assisted Chen Beiwu in refining the feedback from the same resource, causing its cultivation level to surge by 799 years, bringing it to within a single step of reaching the late stage of the Demon King realm. "Woof!"
Tie Dan couldn't hide his surprise.
Not only the golden egg, but also, through this feedback from fellow participants, it transformed into a demon king with a cultivation level of 3,999 years.
What does this mean?
It's no exaggeration to say that the feedback from Tongcan this time was dozens of times more amazing than when it took Xingdao Pill!
"Hey."
Schiller's eyes darted around, and he immediately put away the remaining precious and mysterious medicines in the cave.
For it, while it was certainly happy to have its cultivation level soar to the peak of the mid-stage Demon King realm, what was more important was to rescue these rare and precious medicinal herbs and leave some seeds for cultivation.
"Eek."
Zhiling turned her gaze to Chen Beiwu.
With Chen Beiwu's assistance in refining, her cultivation level was far inferior to that of Jin Dan, Tie Dan, and Xue Le, remaining at 999 years, but her bloodline received tremendous benefits.
If all goes well, after some time, once she awakens the unique innate talent of the Seven-Tailed Purple Fox clan, she can attempt to prove herself as a Fourth-Realm Demon King. "Hoo!"
Chen Beiwu exhaled a breath of stale air, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
Plans are not as fast as change.
This joint refinement allowed him to advance to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, no longer needing to wait for Linglong Zhenjun to refine the subsequent Pure Essence Pills. Next, Chen Beiwu only needs to perform the ritual, inquire about the truth, and successfully attain the dualistic Dao to advance to the late-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
At that time, even if he is not invincible in the Southern Wilderness Realm, he will be able to compete with a true Nascent Soul Perfection True Monarch.
Even if they are ultimately defeated by a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch from the Southern Wilderness, they can easily retreat without having to use their trump cards.
Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered as he looked at the giant egg that remained quietly in place.
"Buzz!"
Sensing the gaze, the giant egg swayed slightly, radiating a joyful emotion.
Chen Beiwu keenly noticed Aji's emotional change.
After transforming into egg form, Aji's attitude was no longer aloof; instead, he became extremely affectionate and warm, treating him like family. He was nothing like the unruly and arrogant Fifth Realm Demon Lord he once was.
Chen Beiwu then focused his mind and, through the connection of the Covenant, probed the three meridians of Aji, trying to find out the reason for their changes.
