Chapter 267: Third Dragon
_Heavenly Pearl_
On the first floor of the Nine Story PaG.o.da, Ye Xiao was sitting cross-legged while circulating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
It was already the third day since Xue Xiaofei went back to the Upper Realm. After two days of her departure, Ye Xiao finally calmed down and decided to form the third dragon.
Its already been more than six hours from when he started cultivating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique but he was still unable to form his third dragon.
It was more difficult to form the third dragon than the first and second dragons. He did not give up, he continued to circulate the Third Layer of his cultivation technique, trying his best to form the third dragon inside his Divine Sea.
He was also very excited at the same time. He did not know what kind of dragon his third dragon would be, and what kind of abilities it will grant to him.
The abilities he got from the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon and the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon were truly heaven-defying. With other these kind of heaven-defying abilities, he will become even stronger. He was really excited about this.
After another two hours, Ye Xiao felt a minute fluctuation inside his Divine Sea. A wave of energy started to brew and gather together, forming a typhoon. Suddenly, this typhoon turned light green in colour as it continues to become more and more terrifying.
An incredible pressure descended out of nowhere, making it more and more difficult for Ye Xiao to continue circulating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
This pressure not only descended inside his Divine Sea but also on his physical body.
Ye Xiao first thought that someone was interfering with his cultivation but when he thought that he was currently on the first floor of the Nine Story PaG.o.da, his agitation calmed down.
How can some come here without his permission? It is simply impossible.
Then the only explanation for this pressure to descend on him was the third dragon.
Yes, as he was getting closer and closer to form the third dragon, it was becoming more and more difficult for him to continue circulating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
The pressure he felt was also because of the Third Layer of his cultivation technique.
After some time, the pressure slowly started to subside, giving him a chance to take a deep breath.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao felt as though the blood inside his body started to boil for some reason. He can feel something was going on with his blood, but he could not tell what was happening.
He could only tell that some kind of change was happening in his blood. Well this was no the end, he again felt that some change was now happening in his fleshes and bones.
"Ugh!"
Ye Xiao suppressed the urge to scream out loud in pain. He could not lose control of himself at this moment. He has to continue circulating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
The change that was happening in his body was great. It caused Ye Xiao an unbearable pain but still, he pressed his teeth against his lower lips and endured the pain. Blood flowed out from his lip but he continues to endure the pain.
He knew no matter what kind of change was happening, it will definitely be beneficial for him.
Finally, after another ten hours of work, the typhoon inside his Sea of Consciousness started to slowly take shape.
"Roar!"
A dragon"s roar echoed throughout his Divine Sea as a light green dragon with a pair of gigantic wings that spread a few hundreds of meters slowly took form.
After another six or so hours, Ye Xiao"s third dragon was finally formed.
It has more than ten thousand meters long body. Its claws were sharp and ferocious. Its entire body was covered with light green scales while a strange air was surrounding it as if keeping something dangerous restricted to itself, not letting it spread otherwise who knows what kind of disaster it may cause.
Its pair of wings were also light green in colour. Its eyes were shining brightly as it was looking at Ye Xiao. There was a pair of light green horns that has the l.u.s.ter of black. around it. Its tail was also hundreds of meters long. On the back of its tail, many spikes grew out in a single line that went directly up to its neck.
"Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon!"
A name appeared along with some other information appeared in Ye Xiao"s mind.
The Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon was known as the ancestor of all poison and Poison-type dragons. It is an Ancestral Dragon.
Legends speak of a certain creature that was born when the world was created, a creature known as the Ancestral Dragon. It is said to be capable of devouring the heavens and destroying the land, an existence that towers even over the apex.
When this information appeared in Ye Xiao"s mind, he was confused. If the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon was really an Ancestral Dragon, then it should have the ability to devour the heavens but if it really has such ability, then why he does not get this ability from the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon?
While he was still thinking of this, another piece of information appeared in his mind.
When the universe was born, many Ancestral Dragons were born along with it. There was a total of nine Ancestral Dragons.
When this information appeared, Ye Xiao was shocked.
His cultivation technique, the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation technique can let him form nine dragons. He can use these nine dragons" abilities as he wishes.
Is this just a coincidence?
When Ye Xiao thought of this, another possibility popped up in his mind.
Legend has it that the Ancestral Dragons can devour the heavens and destroy the earth. Although the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon does not have the ability to devour, the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon does have.
Is it possible that the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon is also an Ancestral Dragon? If it really is, then what about Divine Soul Emperor dragon?
Does it mean that both of his previous dragons were Ancestral Dragons and adding the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon, he has already formed the three Ancestral Dragons?
If it really was the case, then the other six dragons that he was supposed to form in the future also the Ancestral Dragons.
When all these questions appeared inside Ye Xiao"s mind, he was shocked beyond the limit.
The desire to know the answers to all of his questions started to wobble in his heart. He wanted to know everything as soon as possible but he also knew it was impossible to know everything with his current strength.
Well, although he could not get the answers, for now, he will definitely get them in the future.
For the time being, he will search for the clues of Ancestral Dragons and try to find more about them.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and look at the other piece of information in his mind.
Previously, the change that occurred in his body granted him an ultimate type of body. His body was now invulnerable to any kind of poison. No poison can now harm him in any way.
Not only this, if Ye Xiao can cultivate to the peak of the Third Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he can get many unique abilities. An example of that after cultivating to the peak of the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he can poison anyone without them knowing.
Not only that, he can even turn their blood into poison. He just has to wave his hand and the air of thousands of kilometers will become poisonous. And these poisons would be not any ordinary poison but a very lethal and terrifying poison.
Just a speck of this poison can kill an Immortal Foundation realm martial artist. How terrifying is this?
Not only this, he will get many such poisonous abilities but the condition is that he has to completely cultivate the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
Ye Xiao was so shocked that he could not explain.
First, it was the devouring ability of the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon which was already very heaven-defying. He can directly devour anything that has energy in them and use those things as his own.
The second was the soul-type abilities he gained from the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon. One of these abilities which were incredibly terrifying is "Soul Destruction". He can actually destroy anyone"s soul whose strength is weaker than him. Not only this, but he can also destroy the soul of those who is stronger than him but the condition is that he has to pay some kind of price to do that.
