CHAPTER 72
Blood of the True Dragon
After devouring Ao Jin's soul, Yang Hongwu felt his own true energy grow even more vigorous. It didn't take long for him to break through another bottleneck.
Ninth level of the Gang Qi Realm.
Hua Qianxue, who was in the Sea of Consciousness, had consumed a lot of energy and her soul was a little blurry. But now, it had become more solid.
After a while, Hua Qianxue opened her eyes.
"Thank you," Hua Qianxue said.
"You're awake." Yang Hongwu was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that after refining Ao Jin's Dragon Soul, his strength would break through to the next level, and even Hua Qianxue would awaken.
It had to be said that his luck was too good.
"This is all thanks to you." Hua Qianxue said softly, "The Dragon Soul Heaven Devouring Technique that you're cultivating is really overbearing. However, it's better if you don't use it too much. If I'm not wrong, your killing intent is getting thicker and thicker. It's hard to control your emotions. If this continues, it won't be a good thing."
"There's nothing we can do about it." Yang Hongwu nodded.
Although the Dragon Soul Devouring the Heavens was powerful, it did indeed violate the harmony of the heavens.
Recently, it had been difficult for him to control his emotions. He wasn't as calm as before, and he often wanted to devour other people's souls.
"If I don't devour this old bastard's soul, I'm afraid I'll be possessed by him."
"In short, it's better if you don't use it too much. Of course, you don't have to worry too much. When your strength increases and you reach the Violet Mansion Realm, you'll be able to open your Violet Mansion and possess divine sense. Then, you'll be able to enter the space of the Ninth Heaven Mysterious Yin Tower. Perhaps you'll be able to find a solution there," Hua Qianxue said.
"There will always be a way. There will always be a solution," Yang Hongwu said.
In fact, he wasn't very worried. The Nine Transformations Yin-Yang Energy Technique that he cultivated was extremely powerful. If he could break through to the second level, there wouldn't be a problem.
Otherwise, he should be able to suppress it if he cultivated some calming techniques.
"That's true. Right, where is this place?" Hua Qianxue came out of Yang Hongwu's sea of consciousness and saw the huge dragon skeleton in front of her. She was stunned. "This … this is a dragon skeleton?"
"That's right. The soul that I devoured earlier was the remnant soul of a dragon. That bastard wanted to possess me but ended up being devoured by me instead." Yang Hongwu said, "It's a pity that this Dragon Soul hasn't completely comprehended the Dragon Soul, so I can't obtain the memories of the soul I devoured. Otherwise, I would be able to obtain some information from the Dragon Soul."
"Your luck is truly heaven-defying." Hua Qianxue took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in her heart. She then said, "This is the skeleton of a real dragon. Its bloodline is pure. Its dragon soul will be of great help to you. Even my soul has benefited greatly from it. This dragon bone is good stuff. Do you see it? There are runes on the dragon bone. These runes are incomparably mysterious. If you can comprehend them, it will bring you great benefits. Even Primordial Spirit Realm experts would be jealous of it."
"If I were to forge this dragon bone into a weapon, I'm afraid it would at least be an Earth-tier weapon."
Yang Hongwu's mouth was wide open. This dragon skeleton was actually so precious. It was unbelievable.
However, he recalled Ao Jin's words. The blood of a real dragon. If he guessed correctly, that should be Ao Jin's blood essence.
"Hua Qianxue, there seems to be something that is not inferior to this skeleton. If I can refine it, even if I can't open the Violet Palace, breaking through to the True Spirit Realm won't be a problem."
"What is it?" Hua Qianxue couldn't believe it. "What's more important than this dragon skeleton?"
"The blood of a real dragon." Yang Hongwu said, "The Dragon Soul said that there's blood of a real dragon under this skeleton."
"Blood of a real dragon? You're not lying?" Hua Qianxue exclaimed. "If it's the blood of a real dragon, it's indeed much more precious than this dragon skeleton. If you can fuse with the blood of a real dragon, you'll be able to obtain the bloodline of Dragons. Moreover, it's a high-grade bloodline. Although it's not as good as your Nine Dragons Sacred Body, it's still extremely powerful. If you use it to refine your body, you should be able to open the second stage of the Nine Dragons Sacred Body."
"Really?"
Open the second stage of the Nine Dragons Sacred Body. Tsk tsk, just thinking about it was awesome. Currently, his Nine Dragons Sacred Body had only opened a little bit, and the battle strength it could unleash was already so powerful. How awesome would it be if he opened the second stage?
At that time, when he broke through the second stage of the Nine Transformation Yin-Yang Art, wouldn't he be even more powerful? He estimated that he wouldn't even need the Battle Spirit Possession to contend with a Violet Palace Realm martial artist.
"Of course it's true."
"I'll go and find it immediately."
Yang Hongwu was extremely excited. He waved his hand and put the huge dragon skeleton into his storage ring.
Sure enough, there were two purple-gold gems underneath.
"This … isn't this Purple Dragon Gold?" Yang Hongwu said blankly.
"Have you forgotten that Purple Dragon Gold is formed from the blood of a real dragon?" Hua Qianxue rolled her eyes and said, "However, the average Purple Dragon Gold is far inferior to this. Most of the Purple Dragon Gold is formed from the blood of a Viper, not a real dragon. The Purple Dragon Gold formed from the blood of a real dragon is extremely precious."
"The grade of this Purple Dragon Gold shouldn't be bad, right?" Yang Hongwu said.
"Of course it's not bad. This is definitely the best of the best. This should be the blood essence that the real dragon condensed before it died. It was used to refine its physical body and recover its cultivation after it possessed the body," Hua Qianxue said. "It's just that it didn't expect to meet you. Not only did it fail to possess the body, but its soul was also devoured by you."
"However, I heard from that guy that the blood of a real dragon has his curse. If he doesn't remove it, the curse can't be removed. Once it's refined, it will be contaminated with the dragon blood's curse." Yang Hongwu recalled Ao Jin's words. This shouldn't be false.
Hua Qianxue grabbed the Purple Dragon Gold in her hand.
After taking a closer look, she frowned and said after a long time, "As expected, this curse is the Dragon Soul Curse. The Dragon Soul Curse is extremely troublesome. Unless it's the caster, there's no way to remove it."
"Doesn't that mean that this Purple Dragon Gold can't be used?" Yang Hongwu smiled bitterly when he heard this. "Such a good thing has become useless. It's a pity to throw it away. It's tasteless?"
Hua Qianxue said, "Not really. Even if the Purple Dragon Gold has been cursed by the Dragon Soul Curse, it's still a treasure. It can help a cultivator condense their blood, refine their body, and break through their cultivation."
"That … that means that I can use it? But … what's the deal with the Dragon Soul Curse? "Yang Hongwu was confused and asked.
"Of course you can use it. The effect of the Purple Dragon Gold with the Dragon Soul Curse and without the Dragon Soul Curse are the same. However, once it's refined, the Dragon Soul Curse will be integrated into the soul of the person who refined the Purple Dragon Gold and leave a mark. Once you encounter a Dragon Soul, you'll feel the existence of the Dragon Soul Curse. In that case, you'll be hunted down by all the Dragons." Hua Qianxue said, "This is the real horror of the Dragon Soul Curse."
"That's it?" If that's the case, then this blood of a real dragon can't be wasted. Refining, I must refine it. So what if I'm hunted down by the Dragons? I have the Nine Dragons Saint Body. My status is extraordinary. The power of my bloodline can crush all dragons. My bloodline is much nobler than theirs.
