--- Chapter 114 ---
In the sky, Xia Qingyue and Cang Yue watched Yu Long facing the five monarch-level experts.
"This city is under my protection!"
"Death is your only ending!"
Xia Qingyue smiled and commented, "Our husband is exceptionally domineering."
"He is." Cang Yue nodded in agreement. When Yu Long revealed himself as the husband of Blue Wind Empire's princess, her heart was beating like no tomorrow.
After watching Yu Long assert his dominance, both ladies couldn't help but fall in love with him again. Yu Long wasn't the type of person who would do this daily, but when he did, he looked 'extremely' cool and dashing!
Xia Qingyue observed the terror-struck faces of these wimpy monarchs and smiled, "With this, the Four Great Sacred Grounds wouldn't dare to mess with the Blue Wind Imperial City, including the palace, auction house, and everyone inside it."
Yu Long arrived on their sides and said, "Let's return. Everything is alright now."
"Okay." Cang Yue eagerly hugged his arm and put her head over his chest. Her beautiful face has this coy blush.
"What's the matter?" Yu Long stared at Cang Yue, wondering why she was like this.
Cang Yue grinned, "It's nothing~!"
Xia Qingyue shook her head and hugged Yu Long's other arm, "Let's go, it's going to be cold soon."
The three returned to the Blue Wind Imperial Palace and saw Chu Sisters guarding around the perimeters.
"How was it, young master?" Chu Yueli asked.
Yu Long shrugged, "One guy is spouting nonsense about flatting this city in my presence. I put him down in the end."
"I see... You did say 9 out of ten cultivators are brainless." Chu Yueli returned, making Yu Long cough awkwardly. "Well, that's one less idiot in this world."
Chu Yuechan listened to the conversation and stayed quiet. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of method Yu Long used to put a monarch-level expert down.
'I've seen his powerful swordplay. If I'm lucky enough, I could see more and maybe gain some insights.' The older Chu thought to herself.
"Should we wait for Hong Guan and Lily?" Chu Yueli stared at Yu Long calmly.
"Hmm, no." Yu Long responded after some thoughts. "Guan is probably dragging Lily to the nearest branch. She told me they discovered some Star Eggs(Essence Sphere) a while ago."
"She will come back in the morning."
"You two should get some rest." He smiled at them.
Chu Yueli's heart melted as she also responded with a smile, "Noted."
"Uh, ah..." Chu Yuechan was dazed.
Yu Long noticed Chu Yuechan's awkward reaction.
He turned around and waved his hand, "Sleep well, we are having a long day tomorrow."
Xia Qingyue and Cang Yue glanced at each other slyly, hugging his arm with a grin.
"Tonight, you won't get any sleep, Mister." Cang Yue said.
"Mm, mm. Blame yourself for being too cool a while ago." Xia Qingyue added sultry.
"Eh?"
Yu Long didn't expect this, but the night was more steamy than cold.
...
The next day, Yu Long opened his eyes and rubbed his forehead. He felt a heaviness on his chest and saw Cang Yue and Xia Qingyue resting on it.
He shook his head as they were the ones who couldn't get any sleep last night. How could they compete with his monstrous stamina that was 'thoroughly' enhanced by [Kaiju Maker] for years?
Yu Long gave them a morning kiss on the forehead each, leaving them on the bed for better rest. He checked the bathroom and saw the grand bathtub nearby.
"Hoho, not bad." He took a long dip, enjoying cold water on his skin.
Jasmine suddenly appeared and sat on the bathtub's edge, having a slight redness on her fair cheeks.
"Woah, woah, what are you doing, Jasmine?" Yu Long was shocked by her sudden appearance.
Jasmine pouted and crossed her arms, "This princess thinks the Sky Poison Pearl's dimension is too cramped, so I decided to come out and take fresh air."
"..." Yu Long.
Who are you fooling here?
The dimension inside Sky Poison Pearl is near-infinite and would keep expanding due to its supreme spatial nature!
Yu Long sighed, "Whatever. It's not like this was the first time you saw me naked."
"W-What!" Jasmine blushed this time. "Do you think this princess wants to see your bare body?"
"You don't?"
"I-I don't care about your body. This princess has seen someone with a better physique than you!" Even though Jasmine said, she couldn't help but peek at Yu Long's chiseled abs and well-developed upper body.
Unfortunately, She couldn't see more below due to the cloudy water.
Yu Long's eyes lit up, "Oh, who is it?"
Jasmine has this smug expression on her face. She placed her hands on the hip and raised her budding chest even more, "My brother!"
Ah, the Heavenly Wolf Star God. Yu Long unknowingly pitied the fate of her brother.
He stared at Jasmine and asked again, "And what makes you think so, Jasmine."
Jasmine narrowed her eyes and answered, "My big brother is called an unrivaled genius in the Realm of Gods. He's the Heavenly Wolf Star God who surpassed his predecessor in talents."
"His Heavy Sword is unmatched because he trained a legacy art of a primordial god."
"Primordial god, huh?" Yu Long has two. No, three of them are technically on his side.
"And that primordial god is the legendary Rage God!"
"Rage God created the 'Great Way of the Buddha' and cultivated the body of saints that no other True God could rival. And my brother successfully reached the sixth level, also known as the very limit of the mortal."
Yu Long was somewhat amused by her statement, "I see... Sixth level, and he's already strong enough to become one of the strongest."
"But you must have a reason for mentioning this profound art to me."
Jasmine raised her finger and nodded, "Exactly."
"I know your body is that of a monster. I can feel it."
"But what if you temper it even further? What result would you get if you cultivated the Great Way of the Buddha?"
"I cannot imagine the power you get from it."
Yu Long rubbed his chin, "Interesting."
Jasmine didn't say anything further because she could see more than anyone. The roaring monstrous vitality inside Yu Long's body was like a boundless ocean in her eyes.
If Yu Long could refine it further, he would become even more monstrous!
The Great Way of the Buddha affects your blood, meridians, muscles, skin, and hair. It hasn't even the slightest relationship with Profound Veins or even Profound Strength since it relied on the strength of the soul and nature instead. Its cultivation was absolutely not from battle but from comprehension.
Normal humans cannot cultivate The Great Way of the Buddha without exploding since it puts a heavy strain on their bodies; only people who have inherited a bloodline or have profound veins inherited from a True God can cultivate this art.
In addition, the Great Way of the Buddha is an arduous art to cultivate due to its 'extremely' harsh requirements on the cultivator's comprehension abilities.
'If Yu Long could create his own profound art that rivals profound arts from the Realm of Gods. His comprehension talent shouldn't be low.' That's what Jasmine thought recently.
"Very well, share the profound art with me." Yu Long finally said.
Jasmine swiftly placed her finger on Yu Long's forehead and transferred her knowledge. Yu Long closed his eyes and digested the new information in his head.
...
"What is Profound Way?"
"What is the meaning of Profound Way?"
"What is your goal?"
Several words echoed in Yu Long's mind, trying to probe his soul.
Yu Long snorted and said, "As expected, even a Profound Arts could carry one's dead will over..."
"But you're making a huge mistake by doing this on me."
Swoosh.
An invisible aura exploded from the depth of Yu Long's soul, roaring at the 'enlightenment' that tried invading its host.
Kaiju Maker isn't just an innate ability.
Kaiju Maker is part of Yu Long, his most trusted partner!
When a foreign substance tries to invade Yu Long, how could it not be angry?
ROOOOOOOOOOOOARR!
...
"What the..." Jasmine rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
A silver pagoda gradually appeared above Yu Long's head and shone brightly in the bathroom. Jasmine was speechless because Yu Long reached the first stage too fucking fast!
"Even my brother needs quite a long time..."
However, Jasmine's shock didn't end there.
BOOM!
"S-Second Stage." Jasmine saw the silver pagoda become more life-like.
BOOM!
"You gotta be kidding me!"
The silver pagoda above Yu Long's head gained a gold color, indicating his breakthrough to the third stage.
BOOM!
"..." Jasmine.
Yu Long's silver pagoda turned completely golden with a faint glow as his body released its unearthed strength. His skin and hair gained a golden luster, but that's it.
BOOM!
"..." Jasmine's jaw dropped.
Yu Long's pagoda sucked the primordial energy in his Primordial Core and spread it over, circulating on his blood, meridians, muscles, skin, and hair. After that, his body automatically started absorbing nature's energy.
And finally.
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
Yu Long's pagoda is coated with black light, changing drastically. It is now mainly dark gold with this hideous charm.
Yu Long opened his eyes and sighed heavily, "Phew, that was insane."
Jasmine pointed her trembling finger at Yu Long in horror and said, "Y-Yu Long..."
"What are you actually??"
Yu Long coughed and then laughed while flicking her forehead gently, "What am I? I'm Dio-! I mean, Your friendly contractor, Yu Long."
