Boom—!!!
The massive Dao Cultivation, like a long river pouring backward, surged frantically into the scroll depicting the coiled White Flood Dragon.
Jiang Yuechu felt her vision darken, and her consciousness once again plunged into darkness... [Year 1: You were born in the Demon Court in the Land of the Far West. Tens of thousands of Water Tribe members paid homage. You were born with twin horns on your forehead and a body of pure white, the Princess of the White Flood Dragon Clan.]
[Year 20: Your Royal Father was a Demon Venerable in the Mountain Gazing Realm. He often placed you on his head while inspecting the vast Great Sea. He told you that the Flood Dragon Clan is divided into Five Lineages.]
[The White Flood Dragon has a slender tail and excels at Water Manipulation; the Black Flood Dragon has sinister scales and specializes in Killing and Slaughter; the Azure Flood Dragon has an iron spine and possesses infinite strength; the Scarlet Flood Dragon has fiery eyes and spits Blazing Flames; the Yellow Flood Dragon has a single horn and controls earth and stone.]
[Among the Five Lineages, the White Flood Dragon was originally the most noble. However, due to a great war, the strong members of the clan perished, and their status is now much lower than before.]
[Year 50: You grew up carefree under your Royal Father's wings. You learned Summoning Wind and Rain, and you felt this was the greatest joy in the world.]
[Year 100: Dissatisfied with merely changing the clouds and rain, you began secretly practicing Killing Arts. Your Royal Father discovered this but did not blame you; he only sighed, saying that in this world, strength ultimately speaks loudest.]
[Year 300: Within the Demon Court, various clans constantly clashed over resources. The White Flood Dragon Clan, being too complacent, frequently suffered losses. Watching your clansmen being humiliated, you felt indignant, and you vowed to become a True Dragon and restore the glory of the White Flood Dragon lineage.]
[Year 600: Your cultivation reached a Bottleneck. Your Royal Father asked you to enter seclusion within the clan, but you refused to be a caged bird. Ignoring your Royal Father's opposition, you resolutely left the White Flood Dragon Territory, crossed countless rivers and mountains, and entered the territory of the Great Tang.]
[You chose the Black River Waters in the Longyou Circuit. Although the water Qi here was not abundant, it was enough for you to reside. The local Black-Scaled Water Monster tried to resist but was defeated by you in just three moves. The Black River Waters were entirely yours.]
[Year 618: An Old White Ape, so old its teeth were falling out, found you. It claimed to be from the Demon Court and offered to help you condense a Dragon Pearl.]
[Year 621: Just as the Dragon Pearl began to take shape, the world changed color. The Great Tang Emperor led an Imperial Expedition, and iron cavalry crushed the Demon Court. You heard that even your arrogant Royal Father was severely wounded in that battle.]
[Although you worried about the safety of your clansmen, you dared not show yourself. You hid deep within the black waters, completely concealing your Demonic Qi, not even daring to casually devour the nearby Common People, fearing you would attract the iron fist of the Great Tang.]
[Year 625: As the rumors gradually died down, you heard the Old White Ape say that within Chang'an City, there was actually an Offspring left behind by the Demon Emperor.]
[But the Demon Emperor was currently severely wounded in the Demon Court, so how could his Offspring be stranded in Chang'an? Your heart trembled, and you vaguely had a guess.]
[You vaguely remembered reading clan records that mentioned a Divine Ability of the Flood Dragon Clan: using a Human Female as a Cauldron, borrowing her Innate Qi to nurture a Demon Fetus.]
[You did not know the deeper meaning behind the Demon Emperor's actions, but you developed a strong interest in this Secret Art that allowed the Yao Race Bloodline to continue within the Human Race.]
[Year 630: You began secretly capturing isolated members of the Human Race to study that Forbidden Art.]
[Year 644: You finally grasped the key points of this Art. You found the Black-Scaled Water Monster, taught it the Secret Art, and instructed it to find a Human Female to perform the Art.]
[You began to anticipate... what exactly would be born from this—a human or a Demon?]
The image shattered.
Consciousness returned.
Jiang Yuechu slowly opened her eyes.
Deep within her mind, the ancient scroll slowly closed.
[Consumed 3,100 years of Dao Cultivation. The progress of the White Flood Dragon, Jiaoxu, has reached Dyed Vermillion.]
[Successfully raised the White Flood Dragon, Jiaoxu, to Dyed Vermillion, receiving a Demon's Gift.]
[No Rank: The Dragon Transformation Scripture (Incomplete Manual, Part 1) (Perfection)]
[No Rank: The Dragon Transformation Scripture (Incomplete Manual, Part 1): Captures the meaning of a Flood Dragon's metamorphosis. Refines Blood into Qi, forcefully forging the Physical Body. Cultivating to Major Achievement allows one to transform into a True Dragon and gain various True Dragon Divine Abilities.]
Hmm?
Jiang Yuechu slightly raised an eyebrow.
Compared to the Method provided by The Dragon Transformation Scripture, the scattered pieces of information in the Memory Fragments made her heart skip a beat.
She vaguely remembered hearing about the Water Monster Borrowing a Womb to Bear Offspring when she was at the Black River, initially thinking the Beast was just lonely.
Now it seemed.
This was actually an Evil Method devised by the Yao Race specifically to target the Human Race.
Borrowing the Human Race's Innate Qi to nurture a Demon Fetus.
If the White Flood Dragon had truly succeeded.
What exactly would have been born?
Fortunately, the Demon Fetus was not born alive... However, the Demon Emperor's Offspring was left in Chang'an. Chang'an City was where the Great Tang's Dragon Vein lay; its Luck was flourishing, and ordinary Demon Monsters would have their cultivation suppressed upon entering.
If the Demon Emperor's Offspring was really there, could they hide?
Unless... A thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Yuechu's mind: the Consort Ming Case mentioned by Duke Wei Sixteen Years Ago.
Was the Great Demon that suddenly appeared in the Imperial City back then related to this?
Jiang Yuechu rubbed her glabella.
She felt like her mind was stuffed with tangled threads.
Tsk... What's the point of thinking so much!
She wasn't good at using her brain anyway.
Who cares about Demon Emperors or Ghost Emperors? If they dared to show their face, she would just chop them up with her blade.
Jiang Yuechu let out a long breath, casting those chaotic thoughts aside.
Her gaze returned to the new Cultivation Technique.
Incomplete Manual?
If she remembered correctly, the memory mentioned that the Flood Dragon Clan was divided into Five Lineages.
Now, this White Flood Dragon had given her Incomplete Manual Part One.
Did she have to collect all five Flood Dragons of the Five Lineages to piece together a complete True Dragon Tome?
However... since it allowed one to transform into the legendary True Dragon.
Such strict requirements were understandable.
With a thought.
Her Vitality surged, like rivers bursting their banks.
A strange fluctuation spread out from within her body.
Jiang Yuechu felt a tingling itch spread across her forehead.
Immediately after.
Two hard points slowly broke through the skin and emerged from her temples.
She subconsciously raised a hand to touch them.
The touch was warm and smooth, seeming like jade yet not jade, like bone yet not bone.
They were only about an inch long, hidden among her hair, and virtually undetectable without a close look.
Dragon Horns?
Jiang Yuechu was stunned for a moment, then walked to the mirror.
The girl in the mirror still had the same cool, detached appearance.
However, deep within her eyes, her originally round pupils had slightly elongated, transforming into eerie Vertical Pupils.
At the same time.
Jiang Yuechu slowly raised her hand.
Whoosh—
Inside the previously dry room, a fist-sized Water Ball materialized out of thin air.
The Water Ball floated in her palm, crystal clear.
As her thoughts shifted, it sometimes transformed into a sharp blade, sometimes into a shield, moving as if it were an extension of her own arm.
Creating something from nothing, Generating Water Out of Thin Air?
But this was not the biggest change.
Jiang Yuechu dispersed the Water Ball in her palm and slowly stood up.
She did not use a shred of True Qi; she merely clenched her fist.
Boom!
A visible Qi Wave spread outward from the center of her fist.
What a powerful Physical Body!
A hint of joy flashed in Jiang Yuechu's eyes.
Although her Physical Body had been strong before, it was still within the scope of the Human Race.
But after activating The Dragon Transformation Scripture.
Even without using any True Qi, just relying on this Power of Vitality.
She could probably pin down an ordinary Seed Lotus Great Demon and hammer it until it cried for its mother.
If she added various Divine Abilities... Jiang Yuechu truly couldn't imagine who within the same realm could break her defenses...
