The battle in the Spiritual Sea lasted for a while until Jiao Heng's figure suddenly appeared in the cave.
Not long after, an azure shaped silhouette appeared and looked at him with complex eyes.
"Congratulations, young man. You passed the trials and the complete legacy of the Dragon God will belong to you." Jiao Heng looked at him for a while before signing.
"Thank you very much, senior. This junior promises to spread the glory of the Dragon God in the Primal Chaos once again." He cupped his fist in gratitude.
"You're angry." The Dragon God commented.
"That's true." Jiao Heng nodded.
"Was it because I attacked your Spiritual Sea?"
"No, it was before that."
"I see…" Long Yin nodded and didn't ask further.
It wasn't strange for him to be angry. The trial is a test of character and a lot of practitioners who took the trial have also been angry as it brings back their memories and makes them choose to kill their loved ones or allow themselves to be killed.
Of course, all of them failed so it didn't matter.
Seeing this, Jiao Heng didn't delve into this and went straight to business.
In fact, he was actually quite happy to see his mother again. What he's angry about however is how the Dragon God twisted his mother's character.
She has never been furious with him and although the part about his friends is true. His mother oftens acts pitiful in order to appease the situation.
And sadly, it always works since he can't get angry at his mother who's already acting like she's going to cry.
Perhaps it's emotional manipulation but that's what kind of person Jiao Heng is.
Someone who eats soft but not hard.
He could never get angry at his mother, so even if she interferes with his relationship with his friends, as long as she acts pitiful, he would adjust and forgive her.
What can he say? That's his mother who raised him up all his life. He thinks it's fair to tolerate her willfulness.
So seeing his mother acting like that, even if it's just an illusion, did make him angry.
That's why he didn't raise his head or turn back as he doesn't want his mother to be related to that nor does he want to remember that… thing.
"What's your name again, young man?"
"Jiao Heng."
"Arrogant? Worthy of bearing the legacy of the Dragon God." After saying that, Long Yin nodded and nine drops of blood appeared.
"Here are the Nine drops of the Dragon God Blood. Six drops can give a person the Virgin Dragon Seed and breakthrough, though with your level, even if it's nine drops, it won't have much effect aside from strengthening your physique and elevating your body to the level of a True Dragon."
The nine drops fused with him and with his cultivation, he didn't even need to sit to refine it. It easily merges with his body.
The Dragon God saw this and wasn't surprised. Normally, anyone below the Divine Realms would have a breakthrough on small realms for every drop of blood but since Jiao Heng is already a Divine Master, the most it could do was tamper with his blood and improve his physique.
"The next is the Dragon God Bone Marrow. It makes the bones like fine steel, and the marrow like an impregnable fortress. The blood and strength that is lost, will be endlessly and inexhaustibly recovered with an even faster speed. It will also give regenerative capabilities. The marrow will continuously generate new genuine dragon blood. It will increase your Dragon God's bloodline even in sleep and it drastically improves the owner's True Dragon body."
The Dragon God said with pride before bestowing the precious marrow that he had kept for years.
Jiao Heng sat down with crossed legs. Unlike the drops of blood that can be refined easily, the Dragon God Bone Marrow is equivalent to replacing his own bone marrow so it would take more time to fuse.
The bone marrow fused with his body and a cracking sound resounded, making Jiao Heng groan.
It was painful, but with his experience with that lightning tribulation, it was still tolerable.
The Dragon God saw this and was surprised. The Dragon God Bone Marrow is domineering and if someone other than the Dragon God tried to fuse with it, they would have to exert willpower in order to subdue it.
Not to mention that pain that you have to undergo to fuse the bone marrow in your entire structure, if you have a weak willpower, you'll collapse before you even try integrating it.
The Dragon God doesn't know what happened to the outside world and if he knew, he wouldn't be that surprised.
Surviving a nine stage tribulation is already amazing, even in the Primordial Era as most True Gods are born that way.
"What a strange physique. It even reminds me of something." The azure eyes flickered as he watched Jiao Heng's body twitch from pain before his face relaxed.
After absorbing the bone marrow, Jiao Heng's eyes became azure colored and his temperament became heavy, like a dragon descending from the sky.
"Congratulations young man. You have successfully fused with the Dragon God Bone Marrow." The Dragon God commented.
"Yeah, I can feel my body becoming stronger and there seems to be no limit." He clenched his fist as if feeling the strength he can exert.
His entire body right now is vigorous and every cell feels like they are jumping in joy.
"Normally, it would take time before the body adapts to a True Dragon Blood let alone the bone marrow but it seems that your physique is special and it easily accepted my legacy."
"What did you see, senior?" Jiao Heng became curious.
Yun Che has his Sacred Body which allows him to take multiple legacies when usually, only three legacies can be handled by someone.
He already has two legacies and if Mo E joins, he'll have three. He wasn't really interested in Heretic God Legacy since the power it has is almost suicidal.
Plus he also has the Nine Character Secrets. Instead of collecting a bunch of legacies, it's better to master the ones you currently have.
"In the Primordial Era, there was a physique called the Nine Profound Exquisite Body. It was said that it's a miraculous physique that allows the holder to have a small world inside of them, allowing them to carry more energy than their body is capable of."
"It also allows them to master profound arts to any level regardless of cultivation."
Jiao Heng's eyes widened hearing that.
'Wasn't that Xia Qingyue's physique? I thought only women could have it?'
Long Yin didn't notice Jiao Heng's expression and he continued.
"But I think it's impossible."
"Why is that senior?" Jiao Heng asked.
"Because it's possessed by women. Add to the fact that if it was really the Nine Profound Exquisite Body, I would have noticed it the moment you use profound energy."
When possessors of Nine Profound Exquisite Body have low profound cultivation their profound energy will reveal a unique free-flowing state and it's easily discernible by people who are aware of this characteristic of the Nine Profound Exquisite Body.
But who is he? He's Long Yin, the Dragon God and the Sovereign of all Beasts. In terms of insight, he's far more superior than other cultivators.
"I see…" Jiao Heng sighed. This is getting tricky. A physique similar to Nine Profound Exquisite Body.
"... But I think I have an idea of what your physique is." Long Yin said slowly.
It seems that the Dragon God has an idea.
