Chapter 97, "The Dragon Transformation and Ascension Technique," the Secret of Dragon Transformation

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

First, the Qinglian Temple cultivators surrounded and killed the Black Dragon, and then the Green Dragon and several Yunzhou Purple Mansion cultivators used a feint attack.

As a result, the Azure Dragon, who thought he had succeeded, was ambushed by the Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators who had already seen through his plan.

But no one expected that Qinglian Temple had also laid an ambush of three Purple Mansion cultivators at Feima Mountain, specifically waiting for the Hualong Sect cultivators to appear.

These successive changes have broadened the horizons of the cultivators gathered at Feima Mountain, and they are thoroughly enjoying what they have to see!

At this moment, six cultivators from the Purple Mansion of the Jing Kingdom attacked together in the sky above the mountains and forests. They split up the two cultivators from the Dragon Transformation Sect and the Azure Dragon in pairs, and each fought against the other.

In this battle where the numbers outnumbered the enemy, the Jingguo cultivators naturally had the upper hand.

In particular, the three Qinglian Temple cultivators, who came from a major sect, possessed magical artifacts and supernatural abilities that were superior to those of ordinary cultivators.

After a brief exchange, the two Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators were unable to hold on any longer and were forced to unleash the sect's unique secret technique.

The red-robed female cultivator let out a delicate shout, and her robes ripped apart, revealing skin covered in crimson dragon scales.

In the blink of an eye, she transformed into a half-dragon, half-human creature covered in crimson dragon scales.

Then she raised her hand and the crimson decapitation blade fell into her hand. She directly used the sharp blade to parry and slash at the magical weapon controlled by her opponent.

Her crimson dragon scales also provided her with powerful defense, allowing her to withstand the spells and magical artifacts of cultivators of the same level with her bare body, just like a dragon.

Even more remarkably, she can even breathe fire directly, just like a real fire dragon, and unleash various fire-based spells.

At this moment, she was like a dragon that had transformed into human form!

With such powerful secret techniques at her disposal, she quickly turned the tables on two opponents, launching a strong counterattack that forced them to retreat in defeat.

"Don't be afraid. The Dragon Transformation Technique puts a tremendous strain on the body. She can't maintain this state for long, and she'll definitely be weak afterward!"

While desperately resisting the opponent's attacks, the Taoist priests of Qinglian Temple shouted loudly to remind and encourage the Yunzhou Purple Mansion cultivators in their group, fearing that their companions would be frightened and let the person escape.

But he underestimated the strength and ferocity of his opponent!

The female cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect, relying on her secret technique, defeated the two of them single-handedly. Instead of trying to break through, she quickly went to help another male cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect.

At this moment, the male cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect also transformed into a dragon-man covered in blue dragon scales, but because his offensive techniques were not as sharp as the female cultivator's, he was unable to gain any advantage.

He was only rescued when the female cultivator arrived and joined him.

The female cultivator brandished her longsword, unleashing several crimson sword energies that forced her opponent's magical weapon back.

Then, she transmitted her voice to the male cultivator, saying, "Protector Lin, things are beyond saving. Let's retreat!"

Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, the male cultivator replied in a deep voice, "Protector Lin, go help the Azure Dragon and escort it to safety. I naturally have a way to escape!"

Are you sure?

The female cultivator looked at the male cultivator with surprise, not expecting him to say that.

"Sure!"

The male cultivator nodded emphatically, his eyes filled with determination.

Seeing this, the female cultivator, though still harboring some doubts, didn't ask any further questions. She simply nodded and said, "Alright then, take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he drew his knife and cleared a path, heading straight for the Azure Dragon, who was being attacked by two Taoist priests from the Azure Lotus Temple.

To be honest, Qingjiao should be the strongest single entity on the battlefield, so it shouldn't have performed so poorly.

Unfortunately, the damage inflicted by the female cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect was too severe. Even after taking the healing pills given by the male cultivator, it would not be able to recover in a short time.

Therefore, when faced with the siege of two Purple Mansion cultivators from the Azure Lotus Temple, it performed poorly and couldn't even break through and escape on its own.

It wasn't until the female cultivators from the Dragon Transformation Sect rushed over to help that it saw a good opportunity to break through!

Surrounded by azure light, it seized the opportunity when the female cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect forced back a Taoist from the Azure Lotus Temple, and swiftly rose with the wind, transforming into a streak of azure light as it broke through the encirclement outside the battlefield.

"You beast, don't run away!"

The white-haired old Taoist priest of Qinglian Temple changed his expression and hurriedly raised his hand to strike the fleeing Qingjiao with a green hairpin.

The hairpin flashed through the air, arriving before the hairpin itself and piercing into the Azure Dragon's body, causing it to tremble and instantly interrupting its escape technique.

But then it activated the power of its inner core, using it to forcefully expel the hairpin magic weapon that had been embedded in its body. Then, with a flick of its tail, it continued to flee.

Meanwhile, the white-haired old man was forced back by the sword energy unleashed by the female cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect, and he no longer had time to use any more methods to capture the Azure Dragon.

Watching helplessly as the heavily injured Azure Dragon slipped away right under his nose, the white-haired old man was filled with anger and rage, and immediately unleashed all his fury on the female cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect.

"You shameless woman, you're asking for it!"

With a roar, he swiftly formed hand seals, and a crimson fire lotus rapidly condensed in front of him before he casually pushed it towards the female cultivator.

Rumble!

A loud bang echoed in the sky, caused by the female cultivator's sword energy striking the incoming fire lotus.

Relying on the formidable defense of her dragon scales, she withstood the aftershocks of the fire lotus explosion and forced her way out of the blast zone, attempting to kill or severely injure the white-haired Taoist priest.

But she clearly underestimated the trump cards possessed by a cultivator from a major sect who had lived for hundreds of years.

When she suddenly closed the distance to within a hundred feet, the white-haired Taoist showed no sign of panic.

With a casual pat on his waist storage pouch, he took out a crimson-gold bronze bell-shaped magical artifact.

Driven by his magic, the bronze bell artifact rapidly enlarged, enveloping him within it. No matter how the female cultivator slashed with her long sword, she could only leave a string of sparks on the bronze bell.

On the contrary, the female cultivator herself was shaken by the sound waves released by the bronze bell, causing her blood and qi to stagnate and her chest to feel tight.

Meanwhile, the female cultivator's attack was thwarted, and the other three Jingguo Purple Mansion cultivators, who were equally furious about the escape of the Azure Dragon, vented their anger on her.

Even though she was covered in armor, she was quickly beaten until she coughed up blood and was covered in wounds.

Even so, she eventually broke through the encirclement with her severely injured body, using a secret escape technique to transform into a streak of fire and escape.

On the other hand, the male cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect immediately showed a relaxed expression on his face behind his mask after seeing the female cultivator successfully break through and escape.

Then, a fervent glint flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly took out a black bead from his storage bag, tilted his head back, and swallowed it, shouting at the same time, "With my body, I feed the dragon's soul..."

It seemed to be some kind of prayer or some kind of sorcery incantation.

In short, after the male cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Sect finished shouting and chanting a series of words, his body underwent another drastic change.

A clear, melodious dragon roar resounded from his body, and he, who was originally half-dragon and half-human, instantly transformed into a dark blue-green dragon that was over ten zhang long.

However, unlike a normal dragon, his eyes showed no intelligence whatsoever, only endless madness.

"Damn it, it's the Dragon Transformation Ascension Technique from the Dragon Transformation Sect! This guy's gone mad!"

A Taoist priest from Qinglian Temple seemed to recognize the secret technique used by the male cultivator. After cursing loudly, he hurriedly turned and fled.

After using the "Dragon Transformation Ascension Technique," the male cultivator would soon ascend to heaven, so there was no need for him to fight to the death with someone who was destined to die.

No one who can cultivate to the Purple Mansion stage is a fool.

Moreover, the "Dragon Transformation Ascension Technique" is a signature secret technique of the Dragon Transformation Sect, and most of the Purple Mansion cultivators present had heard of its power.

Therefore, not one of them dared to stay and fight that dark blue-green dragon.

But how could the dark blue dragon, driven by a lust for slaughter after losing its reason, allow them to leave?

With a hiss, the dark blue dragon swung its tail and pounced on a Taoist priest from the Qinglian Temple.

Perhaps in the mind of that male cultivator from the Hualong Sect, the secret technique he used at the cost of his life had to drag a Taoist from the Qinglian Temple down with him to make it worthwhile.

"How dare you, you beast, be so insolent!"

The remaining two Qinglian Temple Taoists were both shocked and furious, and hurriedly attacked the dark blue-black dragon to support their fellow disciples.

If it were a cultivator from the Purple Mansion in Yunzhou, they could ignore it, but if they didn't help a fellow disciple in danger, they wouldn't be able to explain it to their elders in the sect.

"What kind of secret technique is this? Chieftain, do you know about it?"

Outside the battlefield, after witnessing the male cultivator of the Dragon Transformation Sect transform from a human into a dragon, Zhou Chun could no longer contain his shock and turned to Zhou Daoyi to ask him a question.

He had witnessed the changes in Xu Kaishan firsthand, which is why he was able to remain calm when he saw the two Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators transform into half-dragon, half-human forms.

They were shocked to find that such a powerful figure was behind Xu Kaishan.

But now that he saw a living person turn into a dragon, he could no longer remain calm.

Fortunately, this time when faced with his question, Zhou Daoyi did not evade the issue.

He spoke in a low, complex tone, "This is the forbidden secret technique of the Dragon Transformation Sect, the 'Dragon Transformation Ascension Technique,' an extremely domineering and evil technique that can only be used by a Dragon Transformation Sect protector-level expert who has cultivated the 'Dragon Transformation Secret Technique' to the third level."

"Just as you see now, after a person uses the 'Dragon Transformation Ascension Technique,' the dragon bloodline in their body will be completely stimulated and out of control, transforming them into a dragon of the same level, possessing the power and supernatural abilities of a dragon."

"However, this method will also completely annihilate the cultivator's self-awareness and bloodline. Once the duration of the secret technique has ended, the cultivator will explode and die, turning to ashes!"

After hearing his explanation, Zhou Chun's doubts were resolved.

But more questions arose.

This forced him to look at Zhou Daoyi and press further: "What kind of force is the Dragon Transformation Sect? Why have I never heard of it? What level of secret technique is the 'Dragon Transformation Secret Manual'? Are those people able to transform into half-dragon, half-human monsters because they have cultivated this secret technique?"

Perhaps feeling that his previous answer had broken some taboo, Zhou Daoyi no longer avoided Zhou Chun's question.

He then answered his questions in a low voice, "The Dragon Transformation Sect is a secret sect that is not accepted by orthodox cultivators in the cultivation world; it can even be considered an evil sect!"

"I don't know exactly when they appeared, only that their power reached its peak a thousand years ago, and they almost became the overlords of the Jing Kingdom!"

"But more than 800 years ago, the major sects of Jingguo, such as the Moon Wheel Sect, the Flame Sun Sect, and the Green Lotus Temple, suddenly joined forces to besiege the Dragon Transformation Sect and massacred its members."

"After several years of fierce fighting around the headquarters of the Hualong Sect, the Hualong Sect was ultimately defeated by the allied forces of various factions. The headquarters was destroyed and breached, and the sect's high-ranking members were almost all killed or wounded."

"Since then, various factions have carried out multiple purges of the remaining Hualong Sect cultivators in Jingguo. All cultivators who practiced the 'Hualong Secret Technique' were found and executed, and all books about the Hualong Sect were banned from sale and dissemination."

"So now, apart from the long-established sects and families in Jingguo who still retain relevant records and know that such a sect once existed in Jingguo, ordinary cultivators basically don't know about it."

"Moreover, for some unknown reason, all the major sects in our Feng Kingdom cooperated with the Jing Kingdom to control the news of the Hualong Sect, and strictly ordered all sects to destroy and ban the relevant books and records of the Hualong Sect."

At this point, Zhou Daoyi hesitated slightly, then continued, "As for what level of secret technique the 'Dragon Transformation Secret Technique' is, I'm not sure. It's just that it's said to have five levels, and even Nascent Soul stage cultivators can cultivate and use it!"

After saying that, he shook his head and warned Zhou Chun with a warning in his eyes: "Don't even think about the 'Dragon Transformation Secret Technique.' Not only does this kind of technique have extremely serious consequences and make one easily controlled by others, but its practitioners are still wanted by various factions in Jing Kingdom. It's not something you or I can get our hands on!"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Chun hurriedly reassured him, "Clan leader, rest assured. Since this 'Dragon Transformation Secret Technique' involves such a vast amount of matters, and I'm not tired of living, how could I possibly be tempted by it!"

"It's good that you know the difference between what's important and what's not."

Zhou Daoyi nodded, trusting Zhou Chun on this point.

He had been observing Zhou Chun for several years. He wouldn't say he completely understood Zhou Chun's temperament, but he knew that Zhou Chun was a very measured person who cherished his own life.

People who value their own lives would certainly not do things that invite trouble.

After giving Zhou Chun this warning, Zhou Daoyi himself muttered to himself with a worried expression, "The Dragon Transformation Sect has reappeared in the cultivation world; their ambitions must be considerable. The southern states of Jing Kingdom are likely to be in turmoil from now on!"
