Enormous Consumption
Two hours later, Luo Zheng brought the little Black Dragon back to the cave.
His cultivation was rapidly rising, and in the process of refining the Clear Yang Heavy Water, Luo Zheng could sense that the World Spirit Qi within the spirit liquid had become much fainter.
After soaking in the spirit liquid for two hours, the golden patterns on the little Black Dragon's body became more distinct. Although the golden patterns were as thin as strands of hair, one could sense that the little Black Dragon was much stronger than before, and the power within its body was even more terrifying.
"The little Black Dragon can actually absorb the Spirit Qi within the spirit liquid. Fortunately, the amount of Spirit Qi reduced by the spirit liquid this time is very small, so it shouldn't be easy to notice."
Luo Zheng thought for a while before continuing to cultivate.
In a large residence in Blackwater City, the Seventh Prince's face was cold and gloomy. Zhao Peng and Duan Zhengnan were both silent out of fear.
"It's already been ten-odd days, and there's still no news of Ninth Sister. Could it be that she really met with misfortune? If not for that Luo Zheng, how could we have been attacked by the Thousand Springs Sect disciples? "
The Seventh Prince said hatefully, his vicious aura soaring to the heavens.
"Seventh Prince, I've already investigated. The golden-armored man who attacked us that day is called Liang Donggui. He's a subordinate of the Thousand Springs Sect's number one genius disciple, Yang Xuanqi. And for some reason, Luo Zheng has already fled back to the Thousand Springs Sect!"
Zhao Peng said.
"Whether it's Luo Zheng, Liang Donggui, or Yang Xuanqi, all of them must die to pay for my Ninth Sister's life!" The Seventh Prince's face was savage and cold.
Time passed extremely quickly, and Luo Zheng's cultivation rapidly increased. Every seven or eight days, he would open the stone door and go to the spirit pond to absorb the Clear Yang Heavy Water, and the little Black Dragon would also get a chance to soak in the spirit liquid.
After a month, the Spirit Qi in the Clear Yang Heavy Water had clearly decreased, and even its quantity had become much lighter.
If not for the spirit liquid constantly flowing out of the spring and replenishing the pond, it would have been even more obvious.
This also attracted the attention of the Thousand Springs Sect's authority. This spirit spring was the foundation of the Thousand Springs Sect, and it could be used to refine countless pills.
Once the Spirit Spring lost its effectiveness, the Thousand Springs Sect would suffer a great loss. The supply of pills for hundreds of thousands of disciples would also become a huge problem. Without a large amount of pills, it would be impossible for so many youths to be willing to join the Thousand Springs Sect.
"Little Black Dragon, this is the last time we'll come to the Spirit Pool. If this continues, we'll definitely be exposed. If we're discovered by the experts of the Thousand Springs Sect, not only will it be difficult for us to escape, even Senior Sister Du will implicate us."
That night, Luo Zheng brought the little Black Dragon to the small pond and muttered.
At this time, his cultivation was already close to the peak of the Solid Organs Stage, which was many times stronger than when he killed the Ninth Princess. It was all because of the unlimited amount of Clear Yang Heavy Water. According to his own estimation, the spiritual liquid that he had refined during this period of time was probably enough to refine 1500 Spirit Spring Pills.
This weight was simply terrifying!
Ordinary martial artists of the Viscera Refining Stage, even if they cultivated a Human Stage Upper Grade Martial Art, would consume a large amount of Spirit Qi. To cultivate to the peak of the Solid Organs Stage, they would only need one or two hundred Spirit Spring Pills.
But Luo Zheng's Spirit Qi consumption was seven to eight times that of other martial artists, yet he still had not reached the peak of the Solid Organs Stage!
"As my cultivation increases, the Heavenly Sword Array's speed of refining pills becomes faster and purer. Every time I raise my cultivation, the amount of pills required exceeds my estimation. I thought that I would only need 1200 Profound Yuan Dan, which is equivalent to 900 Spirit Spring Pills, to break through to the Solid Organs Stage. Now I'm afraid I'll need more than 2000! "
"However, the spiritual liquid that I've absorbed is not much. It's far from what the little Black Dragon has absorbed. This little guy is actually directly absorbing the Spirit Qi in the spiritual liquid. This is simply inconceivable. The Spirit Qi that it has absorbed in a few breaths is equivalent to 10,000 Spirit Spring Pills! With such a small body, it can absorb such a frightening amount of Spirit Qi. I really don't know what kind of powerful bloodline it contains. "
Luo Zheng sized up the little Black Dragon, "Little Black Dragon, it looks like you're definitely not of the Golden Horned Python's bloodline. Otherwise, you wouldn't have such frightening potential!"
Recalling the scene of the Golden Horned Python obtaining the black egg, Luo Zheng guessed that the little Black Dragon was not born of the Golden Horned Python, but was swallowed into the Golden Horned Python's stomach.
The Golden Horned Python's bloodline was many levels lower than the little Black Dragon's.
After absorbing the Spirit Liquid several times, the little Black Dragon's body had become a little smaller. It was now only about two fingers thick, and the two golden horns on its head were sparkling and translucent, exuding a mystical aura.
"After absorbing so much spiritual liquid, if it was a normal Demonic Beast cub, it would have already grown into a true Essence Transformation Stage Demonic Beast. However, the strength of the little Black Dragon did not increase by much. It's really strange …"
Luo Zheng had a premonition that the little Black Dragon was about to break through to the Essence Transformation Stage. It was very likely that when the Spirit Qi in its body reached the peak, it would undergo a transformation.
"Okay, this is the last time. Go!" After Luo Zheng released the little Black Dragon, he also prepared to absorb the spiritual liquid.
