Long Chen's hand was just about to touch the rusty copper when he suddenly heard the dragon clan expert's words. As if struck by electricity, he pulled his hand back.
"You've suffered losses a hundred times and never learned your lesson. I've already said, this ancient bronze cauldron has an astonishing origin. Don't study it unless you have a reason." The dragon clan expert said irritably.
"But I went to such lengths to get it. It must be able to help me out in some way!" Long Chen felt a bit embarrassed, but still insisted on his case.
"Help my ass, my ass. Right now, you have no right to use it. The copper rust covers the Heavenly Dao runes of the Chaos Era.
Once the rust falls off, just one glance at it, next time in the Heavenly Realm, it will surely appear in your heavenly tribulation. With your current strength, how can you resist it? Even if he had a thousand lives, he would still be thrown into the heavenly tribulation. The dragon clan expert shouted angrily.
"Alright, I was wrong."
Long Chen stopped arguing and obediently admitted his mistake. In fact, he was full of curiosity about this bronze ancient cauldron and always wanted to study it.
The dragon clan experts said it was terrifying to the extreme, yet refused to reveal its origins. Long Chen felt an itch in his heart. Everyone has curiosity, and the stronger the person, the stronger the curiosity—Long Chen was no exception.
"Let me tell you, this ancient bronze cauldron has a terrifying origin. It's not something you can control right now. Once your cultivation reaches its peak, you won't need to communicate with it—it will naturally communicate with you.
You have enough secrets on you, this one isn't enough. In short, don't set your sights on it again, and definitely don't expose it. "The dragon clan expert warned.
"Alright, I'll do whatever you say."
Long Chen chuckled, putting on a very obedient look, then said,
"Senior, last time in your reverse scale, I only learned three of the eight runes. Could you pass on the rest?"
In the Three Thousand Worlds, Long Chen burned the other five runes to accelerate the absorption of those three: Dragon Roar in the Nine Heavens, Cloud Dragon Offers Claws, and Divine Dragon Tail Swing.
These three moves were terrifying. With just these three moves, Long Chen slaughtered all his powerful enemies in panic, sweeping the entire arena like a devastating force. The exhilarating feeling was something Long Chen had never felt in his life.
If he mastered all eight moves, Long Chen wasn't sure if he would be qualified to challenge the Three Flowers Divine Venerable.
"Don't even think about it. You're not a true dragon, and your body has limited essence and blood. Even if you master all eight moves, you can only unleash three at most.
Moreover, every time our dragon clan advances, all previous divine abilities are sealed within the Reverse Scale. Each advancement is a new beginning, with new divine abilities refined. So, I don't even remember the divine abilities in the Reverse Scale, so I can't teach you at all. The dragon clan expert said.
"I see!"
Long Chen couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. The dragon clan expert spoke very vaguely, but he still understood that although he now possessed the ancestral dragon's essence blood, his strength was immense.
But humans are just people; in terms of strength, they can't compare to the dragon clan. Compared to true dragon clan experts, there is still a noticeable gap. Judging by its tone, the gap seems quite significant.
This made Long Chen feel a bit disappointed. The Ancestral Dragon's strength was beyond his imagination, and this gap seemed impossible to make up for through hard work.
Seemingly noticing Long Chen's disappointment, the voice of the dragon clan expert softened a little as he said,
"You silly brat, why are you getting so stubborn?" Your physical strength doesn't necessarily rely solely on my essence blood. Have you forgotten what your true nature is? "
Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique"
Long Chen perked up instantly. That's right, I'm cultivating the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique! I can fuse the power of dragon blood with the power of the Nine-Star Force, right?
The words of the dragon clan powerhouse instantly awakened Long Chen. The powerful power of dragon blood nearly made him forget his own roots.
Long Chen felt ashamed in his heart. The Ancestral Dragon blood had brought him tremendous changes, and he was starting to want to cultivate dragon clan divine powers.
Although the dragon clan's power is formidable, the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique is an incredibly terrifying technique. Even now, while still exploring and cultivating, he already possesses such formidable strength.
Not to mention all nine stars activated, even with the power of the stars, he could only summon 999 of them now. If he could summon 9,000, what kind of power would he gain? What if all 108,000 stars are activated?
"Thank you for the reminder, senior!" Long Chen expressed his sincere thanks.
The dragon clan expert said, "Remember, your foundation is the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique. Its power exceeds your imagination."
And since you've already embarked on the path of innovation, once successful, its impact will definitely be greater than originality. "
I understand, junior. I will continue to deduce my Nine Star Path." Long Chen nodded and said.
"No, there's no rush yet. You just received the power of my dragon blood, and the dragon blood hasn't fully merged with your body yet.
For the time being, you still need to focus on fusing your essence blood. Only when the dragon blood aura can be completely hidden will you truly have full control. The dragon clan expert said.
"Completely hidden? Is that possible? Long Chen was startled.
Now, dragon blood surged and roared within him, completely beyond his control. His entire body was filled with surging blood energy, burning like raging fire. If such terrifying blood energy were to be concealed, what kind of terrifying mastery would it have to be?
"That's impossible. You have to fully control everything. Otherwise, if the Dragon Blood power is too strong, it will overshadow the main force, and your Nine Star Power, Star Power, Thunder Power, Fire Power, and even your ocular technique will be greatly affected.
If you keep going long-term, it will actually delay your cultivation progress. Especially now that you've entered the Immortal King realm and fused with my Dragon King essence blood, your realms match, so you'll be severely affected by my power.
If your physical strength is insufficient, your realm will remain stagnant. The stronger the Dragon King realm's power, the less dragon blood aura leaks out. Therefore, the Immortal King realm is the same: if essence, energy, and spirit are not balanced, advancement is impossible.
Your aura is strong, and your soul power needs no further explanation. So, for the other two Immortal King Realm cultivators, you don't need to cultivate them—just cultivate your physical strength. The dragon clan expert said.
"So, does that mean that at the Immortal King Realm, I only need to fuse the power of dragon blood?" Long Chen said with some delight. That would make things much easier. This time, he wouldn't have to fight so hard to take the pill.
"As long as you can control my Dragon Blood power, you can basically cross the early and mid Immortal King stages. As for the late stage, you'll need the power of the Nine Stars to cooperate.
After passing the Ninth Heaven, you need the combined power of the Nine Stars and the power of Dragon Blood to break the shackles. That is the most difficult period, and it will be a test of whether you can innovate again on the Nine Star Path. The dragon clan expert said.
Long Chen immediately understood. The dragon clan powerhouse mentioned that after the Nine Heavens, a new Seven-Star Battle Body would be condensed. The Seven-Star Battle Body he was condensing now was only the most basic one. To become stronger, he had to change again.
"Hehe, there's still plenty of time. Perfect, I'll go get to the main business first." Long Chen immediately thought of Yu Qingxuan's shy face before leaving, and an excited smile appeared on his face.
