Chapter 124: Green Dragon True Seal

~7 min read 1,385 words

Cang Yin Yue looked up at Li Musheng's back, gently biting her cherry-red lips.

Then, using the connection between herself and the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword, she circulated the Martial Way True Qi within her body—which had fully recovered at some unknown time—and drove the three-zhang green giant sword on the ground.

In the next moment, the green giant sword trembled slightly, then shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, flew through the air, and landed in Cang Yin Yue's hand, transforming into a jade green long sword of ordinary size.

Cang Yin Yue reached out to touch the cold blade in her hand, her gaze turning toward the direction Li Musheng had departed; a hint of indescribable emotion seemed to be brewing and sprouting in the depths of her eyes without her noticing.

In the next moment, she took a deep breath, immediately gathered her thoughts, and hurriedly chased after Li Musheng and the others.

The four left from the deep well in the rear courtyard, then walked out of the tea house and followed a massive iron chain to the legendary Dragon-Locking Well.

At this moment, Bu Chengyang's expression suddenly shifted, and a strange color appeared on his face.

He glanced back imperceptibly, scanning the surroundings, but discovered nothing.

Bu Chengyang instinctively looked at Li Musheng; seeing the other man's expression calm and without any anomaly, he could only shake his head and, taking the lead, jumped with A Bin into the Dragon-Locking Well before them.

Then, Li Musheng calmly beckoned Cang Yin Yue to follow.

The Dragon-Locking Well was extremely deep, and the water within was异常 cold.

Of course, this had no effect on Li Musheng and the others.

Soon, they quickly sank to the bottom of the well, and then discovered beneath the well bottom a large well sealed with poured molten iron.

"The core mechanism of this place should be beneath this well-within-a-well."

Bu Chengyang condensed True Qi into a thread to transmit his voice to Li Musheng, saying:

"Young hero, you only recently obtained that Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic; for the sake of safety, you could wait some time, cultivate that Martial Way Divine Technique to completion, and then come here to draw out the Green Dragon True Qi."

Li Musheng glanced at the other man but shook his head.

Creating a Wu Gong might take some time, but mastering a Wu Gong was, for him, merely a matter of learning it after one glance.

At this moment, the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic had already been silently comprehended and practiced by him once; although he had not yet refined it to the level of great perfection, it was more than sufficient to draw in and absorb the Green Dragon True Qi.

Then, with a casual wave of his hand, the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword, originally held by Cang Yin Yue, cut through the cold well water and fell into his hand.

At first, the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword shot forth green light and trembled incessantly, wanting to escape Li Musheng's palm, but in an instant, he casually suppressed it.

Li Musheng landed upon the sealed well and circulated the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic.

In an instant, streaks of green dragon phantom images formed from True Qi burst forth from beneath his feet, piercing straight through the thick iron and stone seal and drilling into the realm below.

Bu Chengyang, not far above, witnessed this scene, and the expression on his face immediately shifted again, stunned.

"In such a short time, to actually master a Martial Way Divine Technique... he is truly a demon!"

Bu Chengyang sighed in his heart; the shock and impact Li Musheng brought him today exceeded that of his entire previous life.

At this time, after feeling carefully for a while, Li Musheng threw the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword in his hand directly down into a corner of the well beneath his feet.

The Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword became a dazzling streak of green light, inserted into the ground poured with molten iron like cutting tofu, and vanished within it in the blink of an eye.

Soon, the Dragon-Locking Well began to tremble slightly; beneath their feet across the entire well bottom, the sound of mechanical metal gears turning seemed to emanate.

However, Li Musheng paid no attention to this.

After arriving here and investigating, he discovered that the mechanism core Bu Chengyang spoke of was indeed here, but likely due to the passage of many years, the mechanism here was no longer complete.

There existed some loopholes; others might be powerless against this, but Li Musheng could easily infiltrate it.

And these loopholes were actually the reason why the sealed Green Dragon True Qi inside would leak out.

Therefore, without expending much effort, Li Musheng raised his hand and waved again; the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword, originally sunk into the ground, suddenly shot out as a streak of green light and returned to his hand.

At this moment, the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword had already absorbed a cluster of extremely dense Green Dragon True Qi.

Li Musheng opened his hand slightly, and that cluster of Green Dragon True Qi was drawn into his body; then, with another casual wave, the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword drilled back into the well bottom and vanished.

Since the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword could absorb only a limited amount of Green Dragon True Qi at once, this process required roughly nine round trips to completely absorb all the Green Dragon True Qi from the underground seal.

And those nine clusters of Green Dragon True Qi naturally all fell into Li Musheng's body.

Bu Chengyang had witnessed everything from start to finish, but now he was, like Cang Yin Yue.

After witnessing Li Musheng's demonic power, his heart became as still as water, as if whatever Li Musheng did was entirely reasonable.

For instance, Li Musheng had now absorbed such a massive amount of Green Dragon True Qi from the entire Dragon-Locking Well district without being burst apart, which he felt was actually quite normal.

At this moment, Li Musheng casually tossed the Dragon-Subduing Divine Sword back into Cang Yin Yue's hand.

Then, he focused on circulating the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic to fuse the vast amount of Green Dragon True Qi within his body.

During this process, the sensation of self-improvement from previously absorbing Fire Qilin blood reappeared.

His originally extremely ordinary bone structure, aptitude, and bloodline seemed to begin improving and transforming under the injection of the mysterious energy contained within the Green Dragon True Qi.

Although this improvement was still extremely slight, he truly and distinctly felt the change within himself.

Li Musheng felt joy; he had originally come to the Dragon-Locking Well district for that group of Great Qi remnants, and obtaining this Green Dragon True Qi was entirely an accident.

However, the harvest of this Green Dragon True Qi was far superior to obtaining the key clue, after all, the Heavenly Enlightenment Secret Treasury was not even a scratch yet, but the improvement before his eyes was solid and real.

Li Musheng circulated the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic, spending about the time of one stick of incense to completely absorb all the Green Dragon True Qi within his body.

After feeling slightly, he discovered that his physical constitution had improved by roughly one-tenth.

Although this still had no effect on Li Musheng's Martial Way strength, which remained as strong as ever with no progress.

But the change before his eyes undoubtedly gave Li Musheng some hope.

He believed that quantitative change leads to qualitative change; as long as he continued to constantly absorb Fire Qilin blood and Green Dragon True Qi, one day he would witness the possibility of transcending the Martial Way with his own eyes!

Good, good.

Li Musheng nodded quite satisfied; then, with a movement of his spirit, he inwardly viewed his dantian.

After absorbing all the Green Dragon True Qi, a phantom image of a green dragon-shaped seal appeared within his dantian.

He had actually seen this seal recorded on the last page of the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic.

The phantom image of the seal was named "Green Dragon True Seal," and it would only appear when the Green Dragon Cang Ming Classic was cultivated to the supreme level.
