Chapter 75

Very quickly, the Dual Dragon Spirit Core drilled into the ground for several dozen meters, and a more scorching heat began to surge from the depths. Since the Dual Dragon Spirit Core was one with Huang Xiaolong, everything the Dual Dragon Spirit Core could see, Huang Xiaolong could see as well.

At a depth of several dozen meters, the soil was already a fiery red, like magma.

The Dual Dragon Spirit Core continued to drill down, seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters, over a hundred meters!

At over a hundred meters, the soil was a deep red, as if it had been scorched by fire, with a temperature of at least a thousand degrees. At such a temperature, even innate-level experts would be incinerated.

However, Huang Xiaolong's Dual Dragon Spirit Core was completely unaffected!

When it approached two hundred meters, suddenly, the Dual Dragon Spirit Core arrived above a sea of fire. The sea of fire was surging, and below it was a river of magma. Streams of pure, surging Flame Dragon Qi formed into fire dragons, each several meters thick!

Waves of pure, surging Flame Dragon Qi crashed and rolled like giant waves.

In the magma, the Flame Dragon Qi gathered, forming a massive dragon vein.

This was the natural dragon vein beneath the Dragon Flame Valley?

Above the magma, a pagoda was actually floating in the air!

The pagoda shimmered with golden light, with countless fire dragons circling around it. The fire dragons surrounding the pagoda were each ten meters thick, and Huang Xiaolong noticed that streams of Flame Dragon Qi were continuously drifting out from within the pagoda.

Huang Xiaolong was greatly surprised. Could it be that all the Flame Dragon Qi in the Dragon Flame Valley was emitted by this pagoda?! Even the natural dragon vein below was formed by the Flame Dragon Qi emitted by this pagoda?!

What kind of pagoda was this!

At this moment, the Dual Dragon Spirit Core above the sea of fire suddenly let out a series of dragon roars, extremely excited. A black and a blue dragon suddenly coiled around the pagoda.

The two dragons continuously circled around the pagoda, which glowed brilliantly and trembled violently.

The fire dragons around the pagoda seemed to have gained sentience, coiling around the black and blue dragons, trying to devour them. However, as soon as these fire dragons coiled around, the black and blue dragons swallowed them whole.

After devouring these fire dragons, the black and blue dragons did not stop. They continued to devour the smaller fire dragons above the sea of fire, each formed from Flame Dragon Qi, which all entered the bodies of the black and blue dragons.

These fire dragons, several meters thick, generally took over a decade to form, while those ten meters thick took several decades. The purity of the Flame Dragon Qi was ten to several dozen times purer than what Huang Xiaolong absorbed through the formation.

Before long, all the fire dragons formed from Flame Dragon Qi above the sea of fire were completely devoured by the black and blue dragons.

After devouring these fire dragons, the black and blue dragons grew in size by a factor of two, with their scales becoming more solid and their four legs under their bellies becoming thicker.

The black and blue dragons seemed to be coated with a layer of fiery light, which continuously flowed, enhancing their dragon aura.

After devouring these fire dragons, the black and blue dragons coiled around the pagoda again.

However, the surface of the pagoda had a layer of Flame Dragon Qi, which invisibly blocked the black and blue dragons from a few meters away.

Despite this, each time the black and blue dragons coiled and rotated, they thinned the Flame Dragon Qi by a fraction. After more than an hour, the Flame Dragon Qi on the surface of the pagoda completely disappeared.

Then, the black and blue dragons coiled around the pagoda, detaching from the sea of fire, and flew back to the stone chamber where Huang Xiaolong was.

After a while, the black and blue dragons returned to the stone chamber with the pagoda.

The pagoda stood above Huang Xiaolong's head, and immediately, surging, extremely pure Flame Dragon Qi rolled down from the pagoda, surging into Huang Xiaolong's body.

Huang Xiaolong's body suddenly trembled, as if he had fallen into magma. His internal organs felt as if they were being doused in magma, causing extreme pain. This intense burning pain almost made Huang Xiaolong faint. Frightened, he quickly activated the Asura Technique, continuously refining the Flame Dragon Qi emitted by the pagoda.

Again and again, Huang Xiaolong's face contorted in extreme pain.

Huang Xiaolong continuously refined the Flame Dragon Qi in his body, but the pagoda continuously emitted more. Huang Xiaolong felt as if he was being roasted from the inside out.

As Huang Xiaolong continuously refined the Flame Dragon Qi in his body, black impure blood began to seep from his pores. When Huang Xiaolong had ingested the Yang Fruit, the Yang Fruit had cleansed his body, and similar impure blood had flowed out. However, now, more impure blood flowed out, quickly forming clots on his skin.

From a distance, Huang Xiaolong looked like a blood-soaked figure.

After more than an hour, Huang Xiaolong, relying on his willpower to continuously activate the Asura Technique, felt the burning pain in his body gradually lessen. After two hours, when the Flame Dragon Qi from the pagoda entered his body, Huang Xiaolong felt a warm, extremely comfortable sensation.

Each time the pagoda emitted Flame Dragon Qi, Huang Xiaolong could clearly feel his internal organs, bones, and muscles strengthening.

The black and blue dragon spirit core continuously circled the pagoda, continuously devouring the Flame Dragon Qi emitted by the pagoda.

When Huang Xiaolong's dual dragon spirit core brought the pagoda back to his stone chamber, Lu Kai, Chen Cheng, and others, who were cultivating in other stone chambers in the cave, clearly felt that the Flame Dragon Qi they absorbed through the formation had weakened. Although they found it strange, they did not think much of it.

Three days passed quickly.

The blood clots on Huang Xiaolong's skin slowly turned fiery red, then melted and fell off in pieces. At this time, impure blood began to seep from his skin again.

After another three days, these impurities melted and fell off again.

After three such cycles, no more impure blood flowed from Huang Xiaolong's body. His skin became as smooth as lamb fat, with a faint luster.

From the inside out, Huang Xiaolong had clearly changed.

His aura, physique, and overall presence had changed significantly.

After fifteen days, Huang Xiaolong's cultivation broke through from the peak of the sixth stage to the peak of the late sixth stage, just one step away from the seventh stage!

After fifteen days, when Huang Xiaolong retracted the dual dragon spirit core into his body, the pagoda was also retracted into his body along with the dual dragon spirit core.

When the pagoda entered Huang Xiaolong's body, it emitted a faint Flame Dragon Qi, which continued to temper his body. Huang Xiaolong was pleasantly surprised. If this continued, wouldn't it be as if he was constantly cultivating in the Dragon Flame Valley?!

If this continued, his physical strength and defense would be infinitely enhanced, and the斗气 (Dou Qi) in his meridians would also be infinitely strengthened. What level would he reach?!

Huang Xiaolong took a deep breath.

After a while, Huang Xiaolong slowly calmed his excitement and walked out of the stone chamber, joining Chen Cheng and the others on the fourth floor to leave the cave. When they exited the cave, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu were already waiting outside.

Seeing Huang Xiaolong and the others come out, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu's eyes involuntarily fell on Huang Xiaolong, both of them greatly surprised.
