Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 252 - 242: Ice Armor Python 5th Rank Intermediate, Acquires 3 New Great Divine Powers
Just as Tianli died, a vast, sun-like fortune detached itself from his body.
This immense fortune, though boundless and formless, shot directly towards the heavens.
It split into several parts, with the larger portion, constituting ninety percent, streaking towards Han Jiuming’s location.
Its speed was as fast as thunder, and in the blink of an eye, it surged into the Mirror World of the Great Moon Virtual Mirror.
Within the Mirror World, Hong Yuan was still practicing the erhu.
He was preparing to play "The Moon Over a Fountain" over Tianli’s grave after his death.
CRACK! SNAP!
Hong Yuan had just begun to react when he heard a cracking sound. A vast qi mechanism instantly merged into the Great Moon Virtual Mirror and into Han Jiuming’s body.
Suddenly receiving such a great Creation, Hong Yuan shuddered with comfort.
It seems Tianli has truly perished, and the Demon Clan’s fortune has shifted to Han Jiuming.
Closing his eyes and sensing the liveliness of the White Luck Little Dragon, Hong Yuan immediately controlled it and began devouring the vast fortune in huge gulps.
This vast fortune appeared like a golden, human-shaped ant carrying a giant cauldron, but under the gnawing of the White Luck Little Dragon, its form immediately changed.
[Luck Tao +10,000]
[Luck Tao +10,000]
[...]
The White Luck Little Dragon gradually grew larger, and its dragon scales became more prominent. Even dragon whiskers started to grow on its face.
Everything was developing in a positive direction, making Hong Yuan feel extremely comfortable.
"Ah, indeed, the one who survives to the end is the ultimate winner, hehe," a sly smile appeared on Hong Yuan’s face.
In truth, Hong Yuan might not necessarily lose to Tianli if they faced off head-on. After all, with the help of the proficiency panel, he could at least manage a situation where he had a slight chance of survival.
But the problem was knowing that Tianli had received the favor of the Demon Clan’s great fortune and possessed overwhelming combat power.
So why not use Life Span to defeat him securely? In a comparison of Life Span, Longevity Martial Arts was by no means inferior!
[School: Luck Tao (Master 12%) → Luck Tao (Grandmaster 3%)]
In an instant, Hong Yuan’s Luck Tao received a substantial boost, and he gained a deeper understanding of fortune.
If he wished, he could create various Luck Tao techniques at any time.
It was at the moment of ascending to Luck Tao Grandmaster that enlightenment dawned upon Hong Yuan. His Life Lamp Worm jumped from the fifth-grade rank into the Divine Power rank in one step!
A Divine Power rank Life Lamp Worm not only protects oneself but can also turn fortune into calamity, bringing disaster to others. A hint of joy flashed in Hong Yuan’s eyes.
Regarding the troublesomeness of Luck Tao, first there was Li Jianqiu, then Li Ziyang, and finally Tianli.
All three had caused Hong Yuan to suffer.
Knowing that he now possessed a Divine Power rank Luck Tao technique, Hong Yuan was extremely delighted.
BOOM!
The next moment, once this fortune was fully digested, the Great Moon Virtual Mirror and Han Jiuming’s body simultaneously emitted explosive sounds.
Both advanced in rank.
The Great Moon Virtual Mirror reached the level of an Earthly Holy Artifact, while Han Jiuming broke through to the seventh-order Demon Saint.
They ascended without enduring a single Earth Calamity or Heaven Tribulation!
Hong Yuan’s face showed astonishment, unsure what to do with the enormous energy surging within him.
Isn’t it said that a sixth-order Demon Saint must undergo an Earth Calamity every seventy years and a Heaven Tribulation every hundred years? Only after enduring three hundred years and three Heaven Tribulations can they become a seventh-order... Could it be this is special to the current Son of Fortune of the Demon Clan!?
Hong Yuan’s eyes gradually brightened. He thought he had found the reason why that Tianli fellow’s strength had increased so rapidly.
Not only that, but when he pondered the integration of the Cold Moon Seal Divine Power and the Myriad Silence Realm, inspiration also struck him like lightning.
Even with a Sky-connecting Tower Tao Species that commands myriad Tao, he had an endless stream of inspiration.
It seemed as though he had become the darling of this world!
Meanwhile, in the real world, the sleeping Ice Armor Python also underwent a delightful change.
On this day, the sky over the Zero Desolate Sea Area plunged into a dark, snowy night.
The wind and snow raged, with occasional Frost Thunder appearing.
The closer to the Ice Frost River, the higher the frequency of Frost Thunder, not to mention various other strange phenomena.
At this moment, the Black Dragon Demon Saint gazed at the Tribulation Cloud above, his expression shocked.
Only five years have passed, and Guangqiao has advanced from the initial stage of the fifth rank to the middle stage of the fifth rank!?
At such a speed, even compared to the Great Moon Saint, Han Jiuming, he would hardly be inferior.
The Black Dragon Demon Saint’s mind raced, feeling quite unsettled.
Because according to "Xuan Guangqiao’s" growth speed, it wouldn’t take long for "Xuan Guangqiao" to attempt to break through to the Demon Saint Realm.
Having two Demon Saints in one clan was certainly good, but by then, who would lead and who would follow?
He was in his prime, while his adopted son was also in the fullness of his strength.
If not handled well, some sordid affair might occur.
Guangqiao is not an ungrateful demon; I shouldn’t overthink it.
The Black Dragon Demon Saint let out a slow breath and continued to observe the activity around the Ice Frost River.
Above the Ice Frost River, layers of Tribulation Clouds gathered heavily.
It was clearly a Demon Saint-level thunder tribulation, yet it suddenly began to bombard Hong Yuan ahead of schedule.
Massive, chain-like bolts of lightning tore through the cold night sky, striking Hong Yuan heavily.
And Hong Yuan... was still sound asleep.
With each breath Hong Yuan took, he withstood the lightning strikes.
Not only that, but he also devoured the lightning, strengthening himself.
His aura gradually became terrifying, especially the fierce, solitary horn on his head, which grew even sharper.
The thunder tribulation trial lasted for three days and three nights.
In Hong Yuan’s subconscious, the two previous Sub-Divine Power Talismans fully condensed, becoming concrete.
Hong Yuan gained two more Divine Powers!
The moves "Cold Wind Frozen Rain" and "Frost Thunder" both advanced to the Divine Power grade!
How is this possible!?
The Black Dragon Demon Saint narrowed his eyes, gazing at Hong Yuan in amazement.
It’s one thing for Guangqiao to reach the middle stage of the fifth-rank Demon Realm, but why do I feel a hint of threat from him...? I am a Demon Saint, after all, and a Demon Saint who achieved it with the Upper Three Tao Seeds. Could it be that Guangqiao genuinely possesses talent and aptitude that are not inferior to the Great Moon Saint?
Involuntarily, the Black Dragon Demon Saint felt his mouth go dry and took a sip of bitter tea. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
He recalled the deeds of the Great Moon Saint.
It was said that the Great Moon Saint, Han Jiuming, once fought on equal terms with a sixth-rank Demon Saint while at the high stage of the fifth-rank Demon Realm. He even defeated a sixth-rank Demon Saint when he reached the peak of the fifth-rank Demon Realm.
However, there were also other unofficial histories. These claimed that this great feat was not achieved by the Great Moon Saint, Han Jiuming, but by a Heavenly Horned Ant named Tianli.
But the Black Dragon Demon Saint had never even heard of this Demon Tianli and naturally wouldn’t believe such vague unofficial histories.
My son Guangqiao, he truly has the makings of a Great Emperor.
Unfortunately, this era has been prophesied to witness the rise of a Great Dream Emperor.
Sigh, born at the wrong time.
The Black Dragon Demon Saint sighed helplessly, clearly believing that Hong Yuan, the Ice Armor Python, would be limited by the era.
Breaking through the world’s limitations to become an emperor sounds easy, but one only knows how despairing it is when trying to achieve it!
「Dream World.」
For some reason, the Great Moon Virtual Mirror was being washed away by river water, drifting into the distance.
Hong Yuan had just reacted when the Great Moon Virtual Mirror had already flowed into a gray, hazy area.
Through the mirror’s surface, Hong Yuan saw several Demon Saints fleeing in panic, not choosing their paths.
What happened?
