Serpent Ancestor

The Ever-changing Fish and Dragon requires ten top-grade spirit stones, corresponding to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The Dragon Shatter Roar requires one hundred top-grade spirit stones, corresponding to the Core Formation Stage.

According to tradition, the next dragon clan ultimate skill requires a thousand top-grade spirit stones, with a difficulty level corresponding to the Elemental Infant stage.

Xu Hei had once used the Dragon Shatter Roar during the Foundation Establishment Stage, but it put too much strain on his bones and its power was mediocre. It wasn't until his entire body transformed into dragon bones that the Dragon Shatter Roar made a breakthrough, gaining soul-shattering power.

Xu Hei speculated that this dragon clan ultimate skill should follow a similar rule, requiring nine dragon veins to unleash its perfect power.

"Let's go!"

Xu Hei directly swallowed the top-grade spirit stones, placing them near the Demon God Cauldron to let it absorb them.

One after another... ten, a hundred... were completely absorbed by the Demon God Cauldron, leaving not a trace behind.

Xu Hei wasn't distressed at all. He knew how important the dragon clan ultimate skills were. He had repeatedly escaped danger thanks to the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon and the Dragon Shatter Roar.

These were not magical treasures or consumables; they were ultimate skills that could accompany him for a lifetime.

In no time, a thousand top-grade spirit stones were completely absorbed by Xu Hei.

His years of savings vanished, but it was all worth it.

"Buzz!"

The Demon God Cauldron glowed, and waves of powerful thoughts surged into Xu Hei's mind, countless pieces of information layered upon each other like waves of the sea, one after another.

That familiar voice appeared once again.

"Top-grade dragon clan ultimate skill, Dragon Battle in the Wild!"

"Dragon Battle in the Wild, its blood is profound and yellow! A transformation-type divine ability, transforming into a dragon for a short time, possessing the power of a dragon..."

"This divine ability has nine levels, each level grants the power of one dragon, nine levels grant the power of nine dragons, and when the nine dragons unite, they can rival the Ancestral Dragon!"

"..."

This time, Xu Hei took the time of a stick of incense to wake up, savoring the content he had acquired in his mind, feeling inexplicably shocked.

A transformation divine ability, Dragon Battle in the Wild, could transform him into a dragon!

Previously, it was just a spell, but this time, it became a divine ability, marking a qualitative change in its designation.

Xu Hei knew what a divine ability was.

A Dao technique with artistic conception could be called a divine ability, but Xu Hei had no artistic conception, and whether he could unleash the divine ability was also unknown. ℟ΑℕŎ฿ĚṦ

"Dragon Battle in the Wild, although I've comprehended this technique, using it is a big problem. Artistic conception... this is something only Elemental Infant cultivators need to comprehend, what do I have to comprehend it with?"

Xu Hei found himself in a dilemma.

With previous dragon clan ultimate skills, he had never encountered such problems, at most they were too consuming and had side effects, but now, even using them had become an issue.

"Artistic conception, what exactly is artistic conception?" Xu Hei fell into deep thought.

Artistic conception, so mysterious and profound! The Nightmare Demon Lord's fear, Xu Fu's Yehuo, the Twin City Lords' twin life and death, these were the artistic conceptions he had learned about, but the information was too little to discern anything.

If only Hei Huang were here, he could consult him about such advanced issues.

But since they got separated on the Twin Islands last time, Hei Huang's whereabouts were unknown.

In any case, to use Dragon Battle in the Wild, artistic conception was essential, as it determined what kind of dragon he would become.

Xu Hei sighed, planning to leave this place first and then make further plans.

"Little Xu!"

Suddenly, Xu Hei heard a sharp voice.

"Who!"

Xu Hei shuddered, looking around in confusion, but saw no one.

Little Xu, only Hei Huang would call him that, but the voice didn't sound like the old dog's!

"Little Xu."

Another voice came.

Xu Hei's gaze focused on Ji Ying, who was staring straight at him, the large eyes on its head spinning rapidly.

"Little Xu."

This time, Xu Hei heard it clearly, the voice was coming from Ji Ying. This insect produced sound by rubbing its legs, mimicking human language, and the sound was sharp and coarse.

This made Xu Hei's expression change unpredictably.

This insect had devoured so many brains in succession and had broken through its cultivation, making great progress in intelligence.

Of course, this progress didn't seem like a good thing.

"Who taught you to say that?" Xu Hei asked.

Who taught it, did he even need to ask?

Ji Ying continued rubbing, producing the sound again: "Little Xu."

It only repeated this phrase back and forth.

"Don't call me that!" Xu Hei's eyes flickered, then he said sternly, "Call me Master."

"Little..." Ji Ying ignored him, about to continue speaking, but seeing Xu Hei's cold gaze, ready to act, it changed its tune: "Little Hei."

"Damn it, I'll kill you!"

Xu Hei lunged forward, grabbing Ji Ying and giving it a good thrashing, and Ji Ying quickly cried out: "Spare me, spare me, Master!"

Only then did Xu Hei let go, and Ji Ying flew out, buzzing around Xu Hei like a fly, making ingratiating sounds.

Xu Hei sighed helplessly. This Ji Ying was good, but it had a rebellious nature, not easy to control.

Of course, Ji Ying had never disobeyed Xu Hei's orders, that was the bottom line. As for what it said or thought, that was another matter.

"Xu Hei, brain." Ji Ying's voice came.

Xu Hei knew what it meant, it wanted to eat brains.

As for where to get them, did he even need to ask? Naturally, the Whale Hunting Gang!

Of course, the Immortal Pavilion's account would be settled sooner or later, but not now. He wasn't foolish enough to confront a force with Elemental Infant stage backing head-on, that would be courting death.

Although the Whale Hunting Gang was backed by the Sea Commerce Guild, Xu Hei was just going to cause some trouble, kill a few people.

Even if the leader Ye Hai came after him, with Xu Hei's current cultivation, even if he couldn't win, he could retreat unscathed.

Moreover, he was confident that if Ye Hai dared to chase him, once led to a deserted place, Xu Hei and Ji Ying together could definitely give Ye Hai a profound lesson, one he'd remember for a lifetime.

The reason he didn't dare to guarantee killing Ye Hai was because Xu Hei didn't know what trump cards the other party had, what backup plans were prepared.

Xu Hei was well aware of how terrifying the upper limit of someone at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core could be!

Even in killing Ye Lu, Xu Hei had a lot of luck.

There were still some powerful magical treasures in Ye Lu's storage bag, unheard of, and just looking at them made Xu Hei a bit dizzy. The Divine Sense imprint on them, Xu Hei hadn't removed yet, planning to study it later.

With a thought, Xu Hei took out a passerby puppet, walked out of the cave dwelling, and came to the outside world.

He walked to the edge of the polluted area, staring coldly at a large tree in the distance, and said, "Come out."

"Whoosh!"

The person behind the tree turned and ran, incredibly fast.

Xu Hei's puppet was even faster, leaping forward and landing in front of the person, who then stopped and cupped his fists towards Xu Hei: "Greetings, Senior!"

The person before him wore a helmet and silver-white armor, with a robe engraved with a pattern of an immortal mountain, marking him as a guard of the Immortal Pavilion, a group of whom were in the first-floor hall.

This guard had been following since Wang Qin was dragged out. It was just that his hiding ability was too good, never being discovered by those two.

Even Xu Hei only sensed him at the moment of his breakthrough, through a vague feeling.

Seeing Xu Hei staring at him without speaking, the guard smiled wryly, removed his mask, and revealed his true face.

Seeing this familiar face, Xu Hei was stunned, it was him.
