Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 700 - 580: Innate One Qi Transform into Dragon Technique!
Releasing his hand, Qi Xiu's expression was solemn.
This was the reason he expended great effort, even going so far as to knock on Wealth God True Lord Shen Wansan's door, to refine the True Dragon Elixir.
"Daoist Qingya had repeatedly advised me to remember one phrase.
Man will triumph over heaven!
Karmic semblance is but a reflection of the future.
As long as I change the present, I can surely reverse the future.
Use my body as a piece, to play chess with the heavens!
I swear, to achieve victory over heaven by half a move!"
With this divine soul thought offered above his head, Qi Xiu sat cross-legged in the void, transforming into the primordial state of the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body, which surged like a sea of clouds, beginning to gradually digest and blend the medicinal power of the True Dragon Elixir.
"The True Dragon Elixir I refined is called: Dragon Ointment!
It's used as a treasure medicine to awaken the bloodline of a newly born Dragon Kid, to awaken the True Dragon Form.
When this elixir was refined, its power was thoroughly sublimated and transformed by my alchemy miracle's Super Elixir.
The True Dragon Mark within me is the reason I can become half of the True Dragon Clan, and it's my inherent advantage.
Now with this Dragon Ointment, I can attempt to mold a True Dragon Body, using the True Dragon Mark as a foundation.
Possessing a second 'legitimate' identity."
With eyes blazing, deep within Qi Xiu's divine soul, the True Dragon Mark emerged like a sleeping dragon.
This True Dragon Mark's origins were mysterious, suspected to be related to his previous life.
With this True Dragon Mark, it equated to him possessing another identity layer.
However, this mark was just an empty shell, and his current task was to fill this shell with flesh and make it a truly existing entity.
Transforming from human to dragon, this was a phenomenon unheard of in the history of the world.
Yet, what Qi Xiu intended to do was precisely this unprecedented feat.
As the power of the True Dragon Elixir was continuously melted away by the Innate Primordial Qi, lines appeared on Qi Xiu's face, condensed from Primordial Qi, as he slightly furrowed his brow.
The Innate Primordial Qi bestowed Qi Xiu with the divine marvel of Thousand Changes and Transformations, commanding the Ten Thousand Laws and mastering the myriad ways, he could practically transform into all things under heaven.
But the condition was that he must have seen and touched the thing before.
A person cannot imagine something they have never seen.
The Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body is no exception.
Though Qi Xiu had the True Dragon Mark, he had never directly contacted the True Dragon Clan, having only seen the silhouette of the Fifth Prince of the Dragon Palace of the East Sea while in the Longevity Star Realm.
Given his cultivation at that time, needless to say, touching would have severely injured him, even being slightly closer would be crushing under the True Dragon's aura.
Therefore, under such circumstances, Qi Xiu couldn't use the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body to transform into a True Dragon Form to fill the True Dragon Mark with flesh.
But now was different.
This Dragon Ointment was originally meant for the enlightenment of a Dragon Kid's bloodline, awakening the True Dragon Form.
Forcefully transformed and sublimated by the alchemy miracle, its effectiveness had been completely revamped.
With the True Dragon Mark as the foundation, it could evolve into True Dragon flesh and transform into a True Dragon Form. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
However, the agony of molding an empty flesh, was beyond ordinary imagination.
Carefully controlling every ounce of the True Dragon Elixir's power, half-clear, half-turbid, with latent clarity, the robust and profound Primordial Qi gradually solidified, vaguely presenting a sense of flesh.
Brows tightly knit, enduring the indescribable pain of flesh and blood generation, Qi Xiu half-closed his eyes, chanting scriptures to safeguard his heart and mind.
As time passed, the True Dragon Elixir melted continuously, and the mystical, transparent Primordial Qi transformed into a tall, imposing, and majestic youth, resembling Qi Xiu with two or three parts similarity, yet exuding a dominant aura of overlooking all the heavens.
As this majestic form condensed, a divine halo gathered at the forehead, as if myriad Dao converged, manifesting into a pair of coral-like Dragon Horns, as if forged of purple gold, radiantly brilliant, exuding the majestic authority of the master of heaven and earth.
But just as these Dragon Horns were about to fully form, Qi Xiu, with tightly closed eyes, suddenly let out a muffled hum, then opened his eyes to gaze at the sky with a hint of peculiarity.
Subsequently, the Purple Gold Dragon Horns on his forehead slowly faded away.
"Did it succeed?!"
Seeing Qi Xiu successfully master the True Dragon Elixir, using the power of the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body to transform into a True Dragon Body, Xu Zhitian couldn't help but take two quick steps forward, carefully examining this True Dragon Body before him.
"No, its form is indeed ten tenths complete, but its essence is less than seven tenths, it is not a fully authentic True Dragon Body.
It can only be considered half-dragon, half-human."
Xu Zhitian had seen the genuine True Dragon Clan during the Ancient Times, though not closely, he was fairly familiar with their aura.
At this moment, Qi Xiu relied on the True Dragon Body transformed by the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body, which had only about sixty percent similarity compared to a real True Dragon.
"It seems depending on a single True Dragon Elixir to transform into a True Dragon Form is still not very realistic."
Seeing that the True Dragon body transformed by Qi Xiu was not perfect, Xu Zhitian lightly shook his head, thinking the failure to fully transform into a dragon was due to insufficient potency of the True Dragon Elixir.
But in reality...
"No wonder the Fifth Prince of the Dragon Palace of the East Sea asked me to achieve the Primordial Spirit status within a millennium before seeking him again.
I thought he felt my power was insufficient, hence the advice to seek him after reaching the True Venerable position.
But now it seems that's not the reason."
Sitting cross-legged in the void, feeling the body that hadn't completely transformed into a True Dragon, Qi Xiu's expression remained calm, showing no trace of regret.
The reason he hadn't successfully transformed into a dragon was not, as Xu Zhitian speculated, due to insufficient potency of the True Dragon Elixir.
The true reason.
Was actually that the Heavenly Dao does not allow the birth of True Dragons!
At least, not yet.
This was why he had stopped when he was about to completely transform into a dragon, not completing the transformation.
He felt the warning of the Heavenly Dao!
The Heavenly Dao does not permit it, and forcing the transformation into a dragon would instead invite divine punishment.
But fortunately, sixty percent of the True Dragon body was sufficient to grant him a new [identity].
The remaining True Dragon Elixir had already been sealed within his Divine Soul.
Whenever the Heavenly Dao lifts the restriction forbidding True Dragon birth, he can immediately harness the remaining True Dragon Elixir to completely transform into a dragon.
"True Dragons forbidden to be born... could it be that True Dragons from the Ancient Times did not perish.
But instead hid somewhere.
Once the Heavenly Dao lifts this restriction, will they return again?"
With a slight movement in his eyes, Qi Xiu silently pondered, the more he thought, the more plausible it seemed.
"Kid, what a real pity, if only you had prepared two portions of True Dragon Elixir beforehand, maybe you could have completed the dragon transformation in one go."
Seeing Qi Xiu's aura stabilize, Xu Zhitian walked over with a face full of regret.
He also longed to witness this unprecedented feat of human-to-dragon transformation, but alas, it was still one step short.
"Gaining it is my destiny, losing it is my fortune, perhaps right now is the best time." Gathering his thoughts, Qi Xiu smiled as he spoke to Xu Zhitian.
"You certainly have a good mindset, that was a True Dragon body, the original main character of Heaven and Earth.
If you could transform into a Pureblood True Dragon, it would mean having one foot on the Primordial Spirit Great Path."
Unexpectedly seeing Qi Xiu so open-minded, Xu Zhitian was somewhat surprised.
After all, the True Dragon Clan is recognized as the strongest among All Heavens and Myriad Races through the ages.
Any True Dragon, once matured, would securely enter the Primordial Spirit Realm.
With such talent, who among All Heavens and Myriad Races can match them?
And Qi Xiu missed the chance to easily achieve the status of Primordial Spirit True Honor, yet remained calm and composed, which puzzled Xu Zhitian.
"Dwelling on it won't provide a remedy, so it's better to be more open-minded."
Smiling as he got up, Qi Xiu's stature was exceptionally tall after transforming into sixty percent True Dragon body, standing nine feet tall, his physique robust and upright, with thick, dark long hair resembling a cloak draped behind him.
In his gestures, he exuded the supreme majesty of a ruler standing high, dominating all creation.
Feeling the strength of the True Dragon body, Qi Xiu's eyes subtly moved, following which he summoned a Divine Soul Thought.
And this thought differed greatly from the diamond-shaped thought of his human form, being a seamless and flawless Treasure Bead instead.
His eyes slightly moved, Qi Xiu tried using Observing Qi Skill to view the Karmic Silk Thread on this thought, but found he was unable to initiate the Observing Qi Skill.
"This True Dragon body is derived from the True Dragon Mark as the foundation, akin to creating a second character in a game.
Thus, all means mastered by my true form are unavailable to this body, using them would require starting anew to learn."
Understanding this, Qi Xiu immediately dispersed the True Dragon body, amidst surging Primordial Qi, transforming back into his human true form, then used Observing Qi Skill to examine this True Dragon Thought.
Indeed!
The entire thought was pure and flawless, without any trace of karma!
