Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 665 - 0: Dragon Bone and Dragon Body_1
Zhang Bin shook his head, a glint of wisdom in his eyes, and said, "Dragon Vein Elder, you just mentioned the reasons for the extinction of most intelligent civilizations. What about the others? How did they become extinct?"
"As for the minority of intelligent civilizations, I only have a vague sense that they evolved too slowly to adapt to the changes of Heaven and Earth, and thus perished. After all, the universe itself is changing rapidly. Of course, there were also a few intelligent civilizations that evolved quickly and grew strong swiftly. When disaster struck, they steered their Cosmic Spaceships away from their home planet. Hopefully, they learned their lesson and won’t destroy nature after reaching new planets. It seems some of the Three Eyes civilization left this planet aboard Cosmic Spaceships."
"Isn’t there a single intelligent civilization that doesn’t destroy nature? If so, how did they become extinct?" Zhang Bin asked again, his curiosity piqued.
"Even if they don’t destroy nature, Heaven and Earth themselves change and bring about disasters," the Dragon Vein said in an indifferent tone. "Where in the world is there eternal life? An intelligent civilization is equivalent to a single life. Where there is birth, there must be death; there is no escaping the designs of Heaven and Earth. And destroying nature only hastens the arrival of disaster."
Zhang Bin fell silent, feeling a bit heavyhearted. However, he realized that he had come to understand many new principles.
These were things that could not be learned from the Tao Te Ching, nor from the Qingmu Longevity Technique. Even if I had gone to Xuanwu Star, I probably could not have learned such lessons and principles. This must be the true Heavenly Dao! This will surely be of immense help to my future cultivation. After all, this is wisdom that the Dragon Vein has come to understand over billions of years. My gains are tremendous. To have reaped such a huge reward before even entering the Dragon Palace is incredible. What kind of gains might await me once I enter?
Zhang Bin looked forward with great anticipation. He quickened his pace, following the guidance of the Dragon Vein, and finally entered a place so mystical it was beyond imagination. This place was, of course, the Dragon Palace.
It was a sealed, vast space, seemingly arranged with a Spatial Secret Technique. It was like the palace of a Celestial God. The walls and floor were crystal clear, composed entirely of fused Top-Grade Spirit Stones that shone brilliantly with a verdant green light. Upon close inspection, one could see red channels that had formed within the walls and beneath the floor. Red liquid flowed through them, making a sound like running water.
A silvery gas permeated the air. Like a white fog, it appeared elusive and ethereal. With each breath, this gas entered Zhang Bin’s lungs. It then rapidly merged into his bloodstream and was delivered to every cell in his body. His cells absorbed it greedily, devouring it frantically, growing more robust while their color took on a silvery tint. His bones also seemed to awaken from a deep slumber, frantically devouring the Dragon Qi. His spine, in particular, emitted a clear dragon’s cry as it twisted constantly, as if it were about to transform into a real dragon and soar into the sky.
Zhang Bin was utterly dumbfounded.
What is happening? Is my spine really turning into a dragon and about to fly away? Wouldn’t that be a disaster for me?
He quickly looked inward to examine it closely. He discovered that his spine had indeed undergone a tremendous change. Strange runes that looked like tiny dragons were rapidly forming on the bone’s surface. Even the shape of the bones was changing—the upper part of the spine was slowly becoming a dragon’s head, the end was becoming a dragon’s tail, and his ribs were slowly closing in to form a vast dragon’s body. The bones in his arms and legs were transforming into Dragon Claws.
Have my bones transformed into a Bone Dragon? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Zhang Bin was completely stunned, his face etched with shock and disbelief. He even suspected that he might be dreaming.
"We Earth Dragons are the longest-lived beings, and the Dragon Qi from the Dragon Heart is the most mystical of heavenly treasures," the Dragon Vein said proudly. "Your body absorbing the Dragon Qi will extend your life by a massive amount, to a length that would make others despair. That’s merely an insignificant benefit. The real benefit is that it allows you to form Dragon Bones."
"What are the benefits of forming Dragon Bones?" Zhang Bin’s heart thumped with excitement.
"Dragon Bones are extremely hard, with extraordinarily strong defensive power, able to withstand the attacks of terrifying Magical Treasures without breaking," the Dragon Vein explained. "Moreover, having Dragon Bones in your body is a true rebirth. Your natural talent will be greatly enhanced, turning even a fool into a true genius. If you obtain the Cultivation Technique of the Dragon Clan, you will also be able to cultivate it. You’ll become stronger much faster."
The Cultivation Technique of the Dragon Clan? Isn’t that just the dragon version of the Savage Overbearing Body Art? Zhang Bin exclaimed internally, his face revealing pure ecstasy. He had witnessed Xiao Jin evolve from a tiny Four-legged Snake into a terrifying Giant Dragon at an astonishing pace; the transformation was truly world-altering. Dragons were covered in Dragon Scales, giving them an extremely formidable defense. In terms of defensive power, Xiao Jin was countless times stronger than him. Now that I can cultivate the Dragon Clan’s technique, my own defensive power will increase immensely.
"Our Earth Dragon clan is the most adept at combat; their Combat Ability is beyond what you can even dream of. With Dragon Bones, if one day you can cultivate a Dragon Body, you can become a true Earth Dragon, possessing terrifying combat strength," the Dragon Vein declared.
"Then how can I cultivate a true Dragon Body?" Zhang Bin asked with anticipation.
"For you, cultivating a Dragon Body is nearly impossible, because you must enter my chamber and drink some Dragon Blood," said the Dragon Vein. "However, Earth Dragon blood is too potent; you simply cannot withstand it. Most importantly, I wouldn’t let you in. If you entered, you would contaminate my Dragon Blood and ruin my countless years of cultivation."
"What about drinking the blood from a real Giant Dragon?" Zhang Bin asked, puzzled.
"Of course not," the Dragon Vein stated. "Listen, those are what you would call Tianlong. They are a relatively powerful intelligent species, but how can they compare to us Earth Dragons? At most, only one Earth Dragon can be born on a single planet, and it must be a Green Planet. It takes us Earth Dragons at least four billion years of cultivation to form Dragon Blood. How could the blood of a Tianlong even compare?"
"Tianlong, Earth Dragon? So, when you Earth Dragons cultivate to the point of Ascension, you must be incredibly powerful, right?" Zhang Bin asked in astonishment.
"Naturally. After cultivating for tens, or even hundreds of billions of years and enduring countless ordeals, the strength we gain in return is immense—unfathomably so. Far more powerful than any other creature of the same Realm. If you cultivate a Dragon Body, hehehe... you’ll hardly find an adversary in the same Realm, even in the Immortal Realm," the Dragon Vein boasted.
"I look forward to you reaching the Realm of Ascension soon," Zhang Bin said.
But I’ve made up my mind, he thought. I must cultivate a Dragon Body. Otherwise, even if I Ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, I’ll just be at the bottom of the food chain, bullied by the countless powerhouses there. What fun would there be in eternal life then?
"Cultivating to the Realm of Ascension is too difficult for me. I hope to receive your help," the Dragon Vein stated. "Helping is simple: just don’t mine Spirit Stones and take them away, because they are my body. Additionally, I hope you can give me more Top-Grade Spirit Stones. How about we make a deal that would be very beneficial to both of us?"
