The Dragon Blood Vessel!
"Not as strong as I think?"
Looking at the entire Tiannan region, I'm worried that there's no one who can fight against this Ink Flood Dragon, right?
If this isn't strong, then what is considered strong?
Su Zhaoyue was about to retort, but when she thought back to when Su Zhan killed the Ink Flood Dragon and realized that he didn't suffer any significant injuries except for losing his armor, her words of rebuttal were immediately swallowed back.
"Alright, alright."
You say it's not strong, then it's not strong. You've killed others, so whatever you say makes sense!
Well, compared to strange people like you, this dragon isn't that strong!
Su Zhaoyue quietly thought to herself and said, "Su Zhan, if you don't need to rest, let's go down and get the Dragon Breath Flame now!"
"Okay."
Su Zhan nodded and looked at the massive body of the Ink Flood Dragon.
With a wave of his hand, his true qi surged, and he stored the massive body in his storage ring.
They entered underground through a crevice.
Su Zhan then noticed that there was a clearly polished space beneath the valley.
Formation inscriptions appeared overhead, maintaining the stability of the ground above, with many giant stone pillars standing tall.
The stone pillars were embedded with many glowing stones, emitting a dim light that illuminated the underground world.
"Although the Ink Flood Dragon might have intelligence and the potential to learn formations, it definitely couldn't build something like this. It seems that humans have also been here."
"These people were probably captured by the Ink Flood Dragon to build this underground nest. Now, only a pile of white bones remains."
After walking for a while, Su Zhan's gaze fell upon the white bones beside the stone pillars and said.
Continuing forward and passing through the corridor between the stone pillars, a large area suddenly opened up ahead.
It turned out to be a palace!
Moreover, in front of the palace, there was a white stone plaza.
"The Dragon Breath Flame is right in front!"
Su Zhaoyue pointed to the palace and said.
Soon, they entered the palace, and Su Zhan used the Starfire Flowing Sword Light Technique to break through the formations one by one, arriving behind the palace.
It was an open space.
In the middle of the open space, within a diameter of about ten meters, a fiercely burning layer of red flames blazed!
Underneath the flames, there were scales.
And within the flames, several droplets of golden liquid were suspended.
Dragon scales!
Dragon blood!
Su Zhan's eyes gleamed, and his spiritual power expanded, sensing the rich dragon aura radiating from the scales, which made him excited.
"No wonder, no wonder the Ink Flood Dragon wanted to build its nest here. So there is dragon blood here!"
"The Ink Flood Dragon surely wouldn't dare to touch the Dragon Breath Flame, so it could only wait for the fire to subside before collecting the dragon blood that wasn't surrounded by the Dragon Breath Flame!"
The piece of dragon scale was over ten meters in size, and the original Dragon Breath Flame should align with the area of the dragon scales. Now, it had shrunk into a single circle, and Su Zhan wondered how much dragon blood the Ink Flood Dragon obtained!
"It shouldn't be too much, probably just one or two drops! Besides, at this moment, there are only ten drops of true dragon blood within the Dragon Breath Flame!"
"Well, you collect the Dragon Breath Flame, and then I will refine the dragon blood!"
After hearing Su Zhan's words, Su Zhaoyue nodded.
She began to activate a special technique, stimulating her physical body and collecting the Dragon Breath Flame.
Dragon Breath Flame was the most direct destructive flame among the strange fires, possessing tremendous destructive power. Therefore, when Su Zhaoyue took it, she showed a pained expression.
Several hours passed, and Su Zhaoyue had collected all of the Dragon Breath Flame.
She closed her eyes and sat cross-legged. As the Dragon Breath Flame merged into her body, her cultivation soared!
The formation runes above flickered madly, and the spiritual energy from the heavens and earth around them merged crazily towards her!
"This... condensing the Yuan Core!"
Su Zhan's gaze sharpened, hesitated for a moment, and chose not to refine the dragon blood immediately.
When Su Zhaoyue condensed the Yuan Core, her resistance to external dangers weakened greatly. If he also focused on refine the dragon blood, if a demon beast similar to the Ink Flood Dragon came, he was afraid she wouldn't have time to react, and Su Zhaoyue would be killed!
After some consideration, Su Zhan sat in front of Su Zhaoyue.
He took out a miniature spiritual vein pearl and placed it in the girl's hand.
Suddenly, due to the isolation formation, the rare spiritual energy of heaven and earth became abundant, making it easier for Su Zhaoyue to condense the Yuan Core.
Su Zhaoyue gently held Su Zhan's hand as he was about to withdraw it.
Although she didn't open her eyes, a slight happiness appeared on her face.
"Thank you."
The girl's red lips opened slightly.
"No need to thank me."
Su Zhan smiled in response.
Half a day later.
A large whirlpool of spiritual energy formed above Su Zhaoyue.
The true qi within her body was compressed to the extreme, and finally, a pure white Yuan Core was formed.
This Yuan Core had very few impurities.
A highest-level Yuan Core!
Su Zhaoyue opened her eyes and handed the miniature spirit vein pearl back to Su Zhan with a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, Su Zhan. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to condense a highest-level Yuan Core."
Su Zhan stored the Spirit Vein Pearl in his storage ring and shook his head. "The quality of the Yuan Core is determined by one's talent. You would have been able to condense a highest-level Yuan Core regardless. It's just that without the Spirit Vein Pearl, it might have taken three to five days to complete this step due to the scarcity of spiritual energy here."
"Anyway, thank you very much!"
Su Zhaoyue swallowed the Yuan Dan into her stomach and curiously asked, "Su Zhan, is your Yuan Core also a highest-level?"
"No."
"You don't-"
"Transcendent-level, without impurities."
Su Zhaoyue was initially somewhat doubtful. With Su Zhan's talent, it was impossible for him not to be able to condense a highest-level Yuan Core. But after hearing what Su Zhan said, she immediately felt a bit frustrated.
Indeed, Su Zhan was not normal.
The level system in this world could no longer restrict him.
A transcendent-level Yuan Core...
I have never even heard of such a level before. Is this weird person making a name for himself?
Well, besides this weird person, who else can condense a Yuan Core without impurities?
While Su Zhaoyue silently complained, Su Zhan looked towards the Dragon Blood and said, "We found this Dragon Blood together, so let's refine it together as well. How much we can refine will depend on our abilities."
"No, we agreed to each take what we need. How can I-"
"No need to say anything more, my decision is final."
Su Zhan shook his head.
The fact that Su Zhaoyue was willing to sacrifice half of her lifespan to save him with her talent was already enough.
"Well then... the Dragon Scales are yours. I don't want any of it!"
Su Zhaoyue hesitated for a moment, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Actually, you are the one at a disadvantage, so how about..."
"There's no gain or loss. I'm willing, so it's fine. Besides, the value of the Dragon Scales is not inferior to that of the Dragon Blood!"
Su Zhan smiled and walked forward, grabbing a drop of Dragon Blood in the air and started refining it.
Su Zhaoyue hesitated for a moment, then took a drop of Dragon Blood and swallowed it, starting the refining process.
One day later.
Thanks to the Dragon Breath Flame, Su Zhaoyue's refining of the Dragon Blood was several times more efficient than before.
It only took her one day to completely refined the Dragon Blood, greatly enhancing her physical body. With the help of the Dragon Blood's power, she only needed one day of cultivation to remove the impurities from the Yuan Core and stabilize her cultivation level.
Her gaze shifted to Su Zhan.
At this moment, Su Zhan had purified five drops of Dragon Blood!
In his body, the meridians stood out, emitting a golden light, resembling coiling dragons!
The golden light in the meridians became even more dazzling. Even though Su Zhan didn't release his true qi, as the golden meridians appeared one by one, a terrifying aura emanated from his body.
"Roar!"
Above him, faint stars and illusions of true dragons appeared, emitting soul-shaking dragon roars!
"This, this..."
Su Zhaoyue was stunned as she witnessed this sight!
The light in her ring flickered.
Lin Feiyu appeared and looked at Su Zhan. Even he, at this moment, was moved.
"The Dragon Blood Vessel! His meridians have transformed into Dragon Blood Vessels! If it really succeeds... a body with Dragon Blood Vessels is equivalent to a Divine Body. Doesn't he have two Divine Bodies now?"
