Chapter 161 - 123: The Tranquil Dragon Transformation Pool

Chapter 161: Chapter 123: The Tranquil Dragon Transformation Pool

Within the boundless Xuanhai, a Chaos Cyan Lotus floated quietly. The dragon coiled around it slowly stirred, detaching itself and taking flight from the massive lotus that blotted out the sky.

"ROAAAR!"

In an instant, the dragon’s roar echoed throughout Jiang Hao’s entire Xuanhai, as if it were another universe where a true dragon had descended. At the same time, endless mysterious energy rose from around the Holy Pool, frantically pouring into Jiang Hao’s body.

It was this very mysterious energy that awakened the True Dragon Martial Soul that had been slumbering within him.

Suddenly, a thunderous BOOM rang out!

Terrifying Soul Power rippled through his Xuanhai. Accompanying the awakening of the True Dragon Martial Soul, it surged toward Jiang Hao’s sinews, eight meridians, limbs, and skeleton, instantly enveloping every corner of his body.

"A martial soul awakening?"

Observing the True Dragon Martial Soul within his Xuanhai, Jiang Hao’s eyes were filled with shock. Looking inward, he was astonished to discover that a soul body identical to himself was sitting cross-legged at the abdomen of the True Dragon Martial Soul. With a slight shift in his thoughts, it felt as though he himself were sitting cross-legged within the true dragon, his entire body enveloped by the astonishing Soul Power.

Only at this moment did Jiang Hao realize the terrifying nature of the True Dragon Martial Soul. The enhancement from the endless True Dragon Qi caused an earth-shattering transformation in his entire being.

What was even more terrifying was that the True Dragon Martial Soul had completely merged with Jiang Hao, spontaneously swimming within his body. Like a dragon entering the ocean, it passed through streams and swam toward his eight meridians. Wherever the true dragon passed, the eight meridians trembled frantically, constantly absorbing Soul Power and undergoing an astonishing transformation visible to the naked eye.

"Is this... the bottleneck of the Nine Transformations?"

Through his Divine Sense, Jiang Hao observed his internal state and discovered that within the eight meridians traversed by the True Dragon Martial Soul, the once almost elusive bottleneck was becoming clear at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only that, but after traversing the eight meridians, the True Dragon Martial Soul headed toward Jiang Hao’s spine, ultimately fusing with it and truly becoming a part of his physical body.

"What terrifying Soul Power. My soul is actually being frantically strengthened as well?"

Jiang Hao was filled with shock. Just entering the Dragon Transformation Pool had brought about such a massive change. This was his first time truly feeling the wonders of the path of cultivation, as if he had just touched the tip of the iceberg of the cultivation world.

Countless favored sons and daughters of heaven who had entered the Dragon Transformation Pools shared the same expression as Jiang Hao. It was obvious that at this moment, everyone had received the world-shocking enhancement of the Dragon Transformation Pools and merged with their own martial souls.

In an instant, a series of deafening BOOMS erupted!

Overwhelming, terrifying martial soul qi surged into the sky, piercing straight into Yunxiao. One breathtaking aura after another permeated the air above the Holy City, causing tens of millions of Cultivators to pale in shock. The Dragon Transformation Pools where the Five Sons of Nanling and Jiang Hao were located were particularly extraordinary, with radiant light shooting up into the sky, as if connecting directly with the firmament.

At the same time, endless translucent books radiating terrifying brilliance slowly descended from the sky, falling toward every genius. Looking at the book floating in front of him, Jiang Hao raised his head, and a few resplendent, golden characters entered his sight:

"The Nine Transformations Spirit Technique?"

Upon seeing this Heaven-defying Secret Technique, Jiang Hao’s heart trembled violently. Only at this moment did he realize that there was actually a proper cultivation method for One Vein Many Transformations. For all these years, he had completely relied on blindly stumbling his way into the Nine Transformations of his eight meridians and spine. Thinking back to the times he had repeatedly brushed past the Ghost Gate, he couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

While Jiang Hao and the tens of millions of Cultivators were filled with shock, a series of tremendous BOOMS suddenly resounded!

Three terrifying figures descended from the sky, as if they had come from above the nine heavens to descend upon this world. To be exact, they were three figures that truly resembled scorching suns, their entire bodies enveloped in terrifying heavenly secrets. Like three stars tearing across the universe, they landed in the three Holy Pools at the very peak.

"It’s those three peak representatives who have yet to reveal themselves!"

"The Sons of the Celestial Dragon, who stand above the Five Sons of Nanling!"

"They’ve finally appeared! The true Children of Heaven!"

The moment those three blazing suns rushed into the Holy Pools, the entire Holy City erupted, and endless gasps of shock rose and fell. It was obvious that these three were the true seeded competitors of the Nanling Realm, destined to become peak existences like the Nanling Pillars in the future.

The moment the three figures landed in their respective Holy Pools, another series of deafening BOOMS erupted!

Three different beams of Holy Light shot into the sky, piercing through heaven and earth, as if reaching straight to the Thirty-Three Heavens. They became the most world-shocking existences among all the ascending beams of Holy Light.

As the Holy Light slowly dissipated, three figures with distinct silhouettes emerged.

One was a young girl wearing a fiery-red dress, her entire body seemingly burning with raging Holy Fire.

"It’s the Nine Heavens Profound Lady of the Phoenix Sacred Race, Huang Ling’Er!"

Another figure that appeared was a breathtaking youth with three eyes. The extra divine eye on his glabella seemed to surge with Divine Power whenever it opened and closed.

"The Saint Son of the Three-Eyed Divine Race, Divine Jian!"

The final figure was a handsome youth who resembled an exiled immortal, his entire body exuding an aura untainted by the mortal world, giving others the illusion of him being aloof and high above.

"The Exiled Immortal Fairy from Longevity Mountain!"

The three figures stood with their hands behind their backs, looking up at the firmament like three Divine Kings who had descended upon the Holy City to look down upon the mortal realm.

Even Jiang Hao felt endless shock as he looked at those three figures. The Phoenix Sacred Race possessed the blood of the phoenix. The Three-Eyed Divine Race was born with Divine Power, destined to be existences like Divine Kings. And the Longevity Family on Longevity Mountain was the ultimate representative of the Changsheng clan in Nanling.

These people were the true Sons of the Celestial Dragon. Compared to those three figures, Jiang Hao and the others were more like grassroots struggling from the bottom to defy the heavens.
