Chapter 92

After a while, Huang Xiaolong slowly dissolved his soul transformation. The dragon scales covering his entire body and the double dragon head pattern on his back disappeared. He felt a wave of fatigue. Although soul transformation could enhance his strength, it consumed a large amount of battle qi, and Huang Xiaolong had just broken through to the seventh rank.

After dissolving the soul transformation, a faint blue light suddenly flickered over Huang Xiaolong's body from bottom to top. With the flickering of the blue light, the fatigue from the soul transformation instantly disappeared, and the battle qi in his meridians and qi sea gradually became full.

This was precisely the third innate soul skill that Huang Xiaolong awakened after this martial soul transformation: Instant Recovery!

Instant Recovery!

In about ten breaths, the battle qi that Huang Xiaolong had consumed due to the soul transformation was completely restored!

Although it required ten breaths, it was already incredibly powerful. In a certain sense, this Instant Recovery was even stronger than the previous Spatial Concealment and Shadow Speed.

With this Instant Recovery, combined with Spatial Concealment, Huang Xiaolong no longer had to worry about the battle qi consumption after soul transformation.

However, the only regret was that Instant Recovery could only restore battle qi, not heal injuries.

After ten breaths, Huang Xiaolong's battle qi was completely restored, and his figure vanished into thin air. The chair beside him also disappeared. After more than ten breaths, Huang Xiaolong's figure reappeared from the space.

After reappearing from the space, Huang Xiaolong's figure continuously flashed in the courtyard, appearing ten meters away in the blink of an eye.

This time, after the martial soul transformation, not only did Huang Xiaolong awaken the third innate soul skill, but his previous innate soul skills, Spatial Concealment and Shadow Speed, were also strengthened.

Previously, when Huang Xiaolong used Spatial Concealment, he could only bring one person with him, but now, he could bring two. As for Shadow Speed, after being strengthened, he could instantly move within a ten-meter range, akin to teleportation, and his speed was twice as fast as when he had the Heavenly Peng martial soul, Wang Zilai.

Huang Xiaolong took a deep breath, feeling pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that after breaking through to the seventh rank and the martial soul transformation, not only did he awaken the third innate soul skill, but the first two soul skills were also strengthened, significantly increasing their power.

Next, Huang Xiaolong summoned the Linglong Pagoda.

According to Yu Ming, after breaking through to the seventh rank, he could open the first level of the Linglong Pagoda.

Huang Xiaolong circulated the Nine Nether Battle Qi and tried the method Yu Ming had mentioned. He waved his hands, sending the Nine Nether Battle Qi into the Linglong Pagoda. As soon as the Nine Nether Battle Qi entered the Linglong Pagoda, it flashed with light and instantly absorbed the Nine Nether Battle Qi. Huang Xiaolong was startled. At that moment, a light flashed before his eyes, and he found himself in a space.

This space was not large, only a few hundred square meters, with a height of several dozen meters. The walls on all four sides were made of an unknown material.

"Is this the first level of the Linglong Pagoda?" Huang Xiaolong's eyes widened. Yu Ming had never mentioned this to him.

The Linglong Pagoda had its own space, and the owner could actually enter it?

Isn't that amazing!

After being surprised, Huang Xiaolong was overjoyed because he discovered that the spiritual energy in the Linglong Pagoda space was much more concentrated and pure than outside. Moreover, several meters above, there were clouds of Flame Dragon Qi floating. Cultivating inside and absorbing these Flame Dragon clouds was dozens of times better than cultivating in the Dragon Flame Valley.

Above these Flame Dragon clouds, there were thumb-sized fiery red beads floating. These beads shone brightly in the air, like stars in the night sky, except that the stars were white, while these beads were fiery red.

"Flame Dragon Beads!" Huang Xiaolong thought.

These must be the Flame Dragon Beads that Yu Ming mentioned!

One, two, three!

Huang Xiaolong counted, and there were actually 108 Flame Dragon Beads!

Huang Xiaolong's eyes sparkled with joy. 108 Flame Dragon Beads!

He didn't expect there to be so many Flame Dragon Beads. These Flame Dragon Beads would not only be enough for him to cultivate for some time but also for his parents, sister, and brother to cultivate for some time.

At that moment, a fiery red light suddenly enveloped him from above. Before Huang Xiaolong could react, the fiery red light enveloped him. Then, a set of body-strengthening techniques, the Linglong Golden Body, appeared in his mind.

The Linglong Golden Body had nine levels. Each breakthrough brought miraculous effects. When cultivated to the ninth level, one would possess the Linglong Golden Body, making the body as hard as the Linglong Pagoda, virtually invincible in defense.

Huang Xiaolong silently recited the Linglong Golden Body technique in his mind. After a while, he sat down and began to circulate the Linglong Golden Body technique. Soon, a layer of fiery red golden light, similar to the Linglong Pagoda, emerged on his entire body.

After a few hours, Huang Xiaolong finally stopped. After a few hours of cultivation, Huang Xiaolong found that his muscles, tendons, and skin seemed to have absorbed some mysterious power, making his muscles, tendons, and skin more solid, tough, and defensive.

After stopping the cultivation of the Linglong Golden Body technique, Huang Xiaolong looked at the Flame Dragon Beads floating in the air. He moved his right palm and drew one down.

The Flame Dragon Bead felt hot, like a fire bead at fifty to sixty degrees.

Huang Xiaolong opened his mouth and swallowed the Flame Dragon Bead. As soon as it entered his body, it transformed into fiery hot qi, sweeping through and impacting every corner of his body.

Huang Xiaolong quickly circulated the Asura Technique to refine this fiery hot qi. Instantly, the Nine Nether Battle Qi in his meridians continuously increased and churned, and its color gradually changed from a dark gray to a light black.

Just like when he absorbed Flame Dragon Qi in the Dragon Flame Valley, black blood seeped out of Huang Xiaolong's body. This was the impurities deep within his body. Previously, although his body had been refined by Flame Dragon Qi, it had only removed surface impurities, and the impurities hidden deep within his body had not been removed.

After a few hours, the black blood on Huang Xiaolong's body formed a layer of blood clots.

After a day, the blood clots on Huang Xiaolong's body began to fall off. After falling off, black blood seeped out of his body again, and this process repeated.

After five days, no more black blood seeped out of Huang Xiaolong's body.

Every time he refined a Flame Dragon Bead, Huang Xiaolong would draw another one from the air and continue to swallow and cultivate. After ten days, after swallowing ten Flame Dragon Beads, he stopped cultivating. When he stood up, he felt extremely comfortable, as if a hundred-kilogram weight had suddenly disappeared, making his body feel unprecedentedly light and comfortable.

After ten days of cultivation, Huang Xiaolong's battle qi cultivation had improved again, approaching the peak of the early seventh rank.

According to Huang Xiaolong's estimation, if he could continue to swallow Flame Dragon Beads and cultivate in the Linglong Pagoda, he could reach the peak of the early seventh rank in another half month and break through to the middle seventh rank in another two months.

However, if Huang Xiaolong continued to cultivate in this way, the 108 Flame Dragon Beads would only last him three to four months.

And at the speed at which the Linglong Pagoda absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to condense Flame Dragon Beads, it could not condense even one in ten days. Therefore, Huang Xiaolong had to find a way to speed up the condensation of Flame Dragon Beads by the Linglong Pagoda.
