Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 170 - 167: Demon Beast Hong Yuan, Fourth Order Elementary!
As time passed, a vast Sea Clan began to generate a Vitality Storm.
An enormous amount of Essence Qi frantically surged into the slumbering Hong Yuan’s body, causing his aura to gradually condense.
The most noticeable physical change was that the bulging flesh sac on his python head began to reveal a bone spur, which grew into a small, frost-white horn.
The frost-white horn continued to enlarge at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Third Rank High-level...
Third Rank Peak...
With the increasing compatibility between his hundred thousand souls and his physical body, nourished by the vast Sea Clan, Hong Yuan’s cultivation was driven by both the hundred thousand souls and the vast Sea Clan, causing it to leap forward swiftly.
In just three days, Hong Yuan had broken through from Third Rank High-level to Third Rank Peak and was even advancing towards the Fourth Rank domain.
Fast, too fast, so fast.
It’s worth noting that it hadn’t been long since Hong Yuan held the Transformation Party for the Ice Armor Python; not even three years had passed.
In this era where the Heavenly Tao favored the Human Tao, the growth rate of the Ice Armor Python, Hong Yuan, simply astounded everyone.
"Hmph..."
Hong Yuan, still slumbering, let out a muffled grunt, feeling the blood within his body begin to stir violently.
Nourished by the vast Sea Clan, Hong Yuan’s breakthrough showed no signs of an unstable foundation.
On the contrary, because his foundation was so profound, he was almost unable to suppress the instinct to enter the Cold Moon Dragon Bloodline Dream Realm.
In a daze, Hong Yuan clenched his teeth and suppressed this instinct.
Now is too soon to enter; I’m totally unprepared.
But successive torrents from the Vitality Storm paid no heed to Hong Yuan’s will; they continuously surged into his body, pushing his cultivation toward the Fourth-rank Demon realm.
「Eastern Wilderness, Divine State, Daxuan Dynasty, Yong State, Phoenix Creek Sect.」
Hong Yuan’s Power Tao Incarnation abruptly opened his eyes, stepped out of the training room, and walked towards the Scripture Pavilion.
Meanwhile, Hong Yuan’s Original Body remained in the azure stone pool.
Since reaching the early Third Rank and initially forging the Myriad Silence Origin Body, Hong Yuan had mastered rudimentary water manipulation.
The most basic manifestation was his Original Body’s ability to stay submerged in the pool for seven days and nights without needing to surface for air.
My Power Tao Incarnation has also reached the early Third Rank. With the help of Fourth-rank Gu Worms like the Forest Elephant Worm and Thunder Tiger Worm, its strength has leaped to the peak of the Fourth Rank.
Perhaps I can let the Power Tao Incarnation act and take revenge for Nine Nether.
After all, I’ve been able to cultivate with ease these days, without worrying about resources, all thanks to this generous legacy from Nine Nether.
At the bottom of the pool, Hong Yuan sat cross-legged, his eyes filled with deep contemplation.
Over these past days, he had successfully cultivated the Small Seven Star Skill to the point of perfection. While creating the Seven Star Beads ability for the Ice Armor Python Avatar, his Original Body also formed a Second-rank Wisdom Tao Worm—the Seven Star Ladybug.
Hong Yuan now possessed the ability to split his soul for a second and third Incarnation.
However, Hong Yuan did not act rashly; instead, he was extremely cautious about the art of creating Incarnations!
This art of creating Incarnations is like the art of paper effigies or puppetry.
They can be used to shield me from disasters and tribulations, but my true cultivation must still be focused on my Original Body and the Ice Armor Python Avatar.
Aside from the Power Tao Incarnation, the heart’s blood essence used for other Incarnations should ideally come from sources with no significant connection to me, yet possessing unique traits.
Hong Yuan had always considered the Nine Blood Differentiation Skill an auxiliary cultivation method, a Skill of Protecting the Dao to shield him from calamity and hardship.
His Longevity Martial Arts, along with his proficiency panel and Demonic Beast Avatar, were his priorities.
He naturally knew which was more important.
While Hong Yuan was fully engaged in assimilating resources and enhancing his strength, the junior members of the Demon Saint’s lineage stirred up a new round of conflict in the Heart-questioning Trial.
"Zhang Daoliu, you actually dare to show your face before me!" Zhang Fan trembled with anger. "You despicable, shameless, thieving Demon!!!"
Hearing this, a fierce light flashed in Zhang Daoliu’s eyes. He snorted softly, raised his right hoof high, and then slammed it down. A wind tornado roared and charged at Zhang Fan.
A mere few dozen times your Soul Foundation? I might not be able to fight Xuan Guangqiao, but I can’t deal with you?
Zhang Daoliu’s mouth curved upward in disdain. "Since we’re enemies, I certainly can’t let you grow stronger."
The wind tornado engulfed giant trees and sand, carving a deep trench in the ground.
Before Zhang Fan’s panicked eyes, the wind tornado effortlessly devoured his Demon Skill and surged toward him with murderous intent.
"Heh heh." Faced with a desperate situation, Zhang Fan suddenly burst out laughing. "Zhang Daoliu, I’m not losing to a despicable, thieving Demon like you; I’m losing to Xuan Guangqiao!"
Hearing Zhang Fan compare him to Xuan Guangqiao, Zhang Daoliu gritted his teeth in frustration and immediately sped up the wind tornado.
To evade Hong Yuan, he had endured extreme physical discomfort, hiding in a rotting swamp.
Even when foul-smelling maggots crawled all over his body, he hadn’t dared to move.
To think that he, the dignified Master of a domain, had ever suffered such humiliation! And all this just to avoid Hong Yuan’s hunt.
"Die, you bastard!" Zhang Daoliu cursed, enraged and humiliated.
The wind tornado instantly engulfed Zhang Fan, killing the Nine Poison Octopus.
After killing Zhang Fan, Zhang Daoliu, still unappeased, wildly bombarded the valley. Ancient pools dried up, mountains crumbled, and rocks shattered.
After a long while, having vented his emotions, Zhang Daoliu took a deep breath and began hunting to strengthen his Soul Foundation.
Ability—Seven Star Beads.
Ability—Myriad Silence Realm. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Demon Skill—Cold Wind Frozen Rain.
Divine Power—Cold Moon Seal.
In his slumber, the Ice Armor Python, Hong Yuan, subconsciously used the various Demon Skills and Divine Powers he had mastered. This was to vent the pressure accumulated in his body and, in doing so, gather data for his Power Tao Incarnation.
However, due to the segregation of the River of Time, the flow of time in the Black Dragon Demon Realm was an astounding twenty times faster than in the outside world.
Twenty days in the Black Dragon Demon Realm equated to only one day outside, and the Life Span Hong Yuan consumed was also calculated based on these twenty days.
If I could resolve the hidden danger of the missing Tao Marks in the Demon Realm, cultivating here in seclusion wouldn’t be a bad option.
The Power Tao Incarnation back at the Phoenix Creek Sect had no time to react effectively before the Ice Armor Python, Hong Yuan, broke through the barrier to the Fourth Rank.
BOOM!
RUMBLE!
Resonant rumbles echoed from within the Ice Armor Python as its aura climbed relentlessly.
Early Fourth Rank.
This was a rank considered powerful in any sea region, and Hong Yuan had reached it at this very moment.
"AROOO!"
Hong Yuan let out a furious roar. The wild power of his bloodline could no longer be suppressed, forcing him to enter the Cold Moon Dragon Bloodline Dream Realm.
「Cold Moon Dragon Bloodline Dream Realm.」
When Hong Yuan regained consciousness, a white light flooded his mind, and he quickly absorbed the information.
Based on the number of acts I clear in the Bloodline Dream Realm, I will receive corresponding rewards.
Blood Tao? No, this is already a technique of the Dream Tao!
With a complex expression, Hong Yuan looked at his hands.
They were fair and slender with well-defined knuckles, exuding a natural aristocratic air with every gesture.
At this moment, Hong Yuan was in a human Daoist form.
However, his appearance had changed dramatically. He was no longer playing the role of Xuan Guangqiao but was now a young Dragonman!
"Han Jiuming, stop spacing out! Wake up," someone beside him urged, nudging him.
Hong Yuan looked down and saw a Dragonman girl dressed in a white palace gown. She was sweet and charming.
She said with a hint of exasperation, "Why are you spacing out again? Everyone’s waiting for you. Don’t forget, today is our scheduled betting duel with Ying Choung, Sha Batian, and their group."
So my name is Han Jiuming. Hmm... Early Fourth Rank cultivation, Hong Yuan assessed his current state internally.
"Let’s go, let’s go!" The Dragonman girl grabbed Hong Yuan’s large hand and pulled him into a run.
