Chapter 345: Five-Colored Dragon Sect

Su Ping recalled his understanding of these cultivation arts once more.

He suddenly discovered that if what these cultivation arts said was correct.

Then he... seemed to have already completed the key step for breaking through to the Harmony Realm in advance?

Not to mention the Life-Bound Array Diagram, the Sun Moon Star Chart, which already had a tendency to transform into a true Small World.

Just considering the Netherworld that his successfully upgraded Nether Immortal Body had transformed into.

In a sense, he could also be considered to have achieved the most important step in mastering a Small World.

What remained was merely the painstaking effort of refining it to belong to himself.

At the same time, by combining the key points of the breakthrough to draw inferences about other cases.

Su Ping also vaguely perceived another path for breaking through to the Harmony Realm in the Orthodox Immortal Cultivation World.

It was highly probable that it was for Cultivators who possessed special Spirit Bodies like the Nether Immortal Body.

Such Cultivators would comprehend the method of transforming a Small World after reaching the Spirit Severing stage.

Then, if they were a bit smarter, or simply had a large sect behind them as a solid backing.

They would find a Small World and use it as resources for their own transformation.

The difficulty of ascending to the Harmony Realm in the future would surely be much easier than for other heaven-gifted geniuses.

So, you see.

In this Cultivation World, a good Spirit Body is not only useful in the early stages.

When everyone cultivates to a deeper level, they will discover, hey! The further one cultivates in this immortal path, the more important the role of a good Spirit Body becomes!

Looking at it this way, although these breakthrough methods are far too troublesome, they ultimately found another way out for practitioners without relevant Spirit Bodies.

Without being a heaven-gifted genius, one could not figure out such breakthrough methods.

Even if Su Ping did not need them, it did not affect him taking them to study as a reference for his subsequent cultivation.

Especially since he learned from the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger that, in the Mu Family.

To read such Void Return cultivation arts, one must at least be a clansman at the Spirit Severing stage, and only after gathering Merit equivalent to 200,000 Spirit Stones and with the consent of two-thirds of the Elders and no veto from the Patriarch, could one enter the Inheritance Cave Heaven to obtain an opportunity for enlightenment.

In his heart, he felt a small sense of self-satisfaction that he had gained a great bargain.

Of course, Su Ping still made up his mind to focus his main cultivation on the Big Dipper South Dipper Divine Art.

Especially during this trip to the Mu Family, the relevant divine art Su Ping saw in the Painting Immortal Text reached all the way to the Void Return Late Stage.

For at least a considerable period of time, Su Ping felt he did not need to worry about having no subsequent cultivation arts and having to rely on his own groping.

Furthermore, as he emerged from the Inheritance Cave Heaven.

The look in the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger's eyes toward him changed once again.

As the oldest guardian beast of the Mu Family, it knew things that perhaps even the current Old Patriarch did not.

It was very clear about which Old Ancestor's Divine Sense Avatar had awakened in the Cave Heaven earlier.

"Although it feels hard to believe."

"Thinking that the Master comes from another world, yet suddenly feeling that the Master is a one-in-a-million heaven-gifted genius seed qualified to cultivate the divine art, it suddenly feels like a matter of course."

After whispering this, the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger did not hesitate further, came to Su Ping's side, lowered its body, raised its head, and looked at Su Ping, saying:

"Master! Was it you who disturbed the Mu Family Old Ancestor's Divine Sense Avatar earlier?"

After receiving Su Ping's nod of admission, the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger hurriedly said with a hint of excitement:

"Master! This old one knows that the Huijuan containing the divine art is actually not complete."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Su Ping opened his eyes, emitted Golden Light, and looked at the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

Clearly, no matter how it sensed, he was only at the Spirit Severing stage, so what was this suddenly appearing pressure?

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger felt its fur stand on end from Su Ping's gaze and hurriedly said:

"Back when the Only I Am Supreme Sect was destroyed in the Five Elements World, it once triggered a great war among many forces."

"The cultivation arts related to that sect were scattered everywhere as a result."

"Below the Void Return stage, there is not much difference, but for the divine abilities, Secret Techniques, and some hidden tricks above the Void Return stage."

"There are many differences in what each family has collected."

"It is just that, on one hand, everyone was exhausted after the great war at that time."

"On the other hand, for so long, apart from that Old Sect Master whose whereabouts are unknown, the vast Five Elements World has not produced a second heaven-gifted genius capable of cultivating this art beyond the Spirit Severing stage."

"Everyone's motivation to collect all the fragments of this divine art was not as strong as before."

"However, Master, you do not know, although no one can cultivate this divine art, its power is immense!"

"Even a few small tricks passed down can be modified into desperate finishing moves..."

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger had not finished speaking.

Its three pairs of eyes widened as it saw as many as thirty-six Greedy Wolf Divine Senses emerge from Su Ping's body.

These Greedy Wolf Divine Senses were vivid and lifelike, each emitting a pale blue halo, coldly sweeping over the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

This made the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger realize at once that this must be the Greedy Wolf Divine Sense recorded in the North Star Divine Art!

"Hiss!"

"Indeed, everything in the dark has its destined course!"

"Such a divine art is destined to be cultivated by the Master, and destined to be completed by the Master!"

After being shocked, the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger's eyes flashed, and it immediately poured out all the information it knew.

The most detailed part involved the neighbor of the region where the Mu Family Zhu Feng was located.

The Dragon Raising Sect, which was entrenched in the three-thousand-mile Dragon Raising Lake.

The predecessor of this Dragon Raising Sect was also once a great sect.

It was just that later generations of descendants were incompetent and fell into decline, so they could only rely on a bit of technique to occupy a territory and start a business of raising and training finished Spirit Beasts.

And the flagship product of the Dragon Raising Sect was the flood dragons in the Dragon Palace within its lake.

This sect even cultivated five flood dragons at the Late Transformation Realm a thousand years ago to serve as its trump card.

Combined with the Dragon Raising Lake Array, it caused a Return to Void monster who once had designs on it to return in defeat, winning a chorus of praise.

It is just that nowadays, this sect has clearly fallen, and has already been renamed the Five-Colored Dragon Sect.

The status of master and servant has clearly reversed.

However, none of this was the focus of Su Ping's attention.

For Su Ping, there was only one focus.

That was that this Five-Colored Dragon Sect also possessed the secret scroll inheritance of the Big Dipper South Dipper Divine Art.

It was worth going to demand it and take it to study for a while.

As for the Dragon Raising Lake Array that needed to be worried about.

Su Ping looked at the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger with bright, piercing eyes.

While the other party was completely bewildered.

It was first invited into the ancient Demon Sealing Tower within the Pot Heaven to experience a small shock of the Pot Heaven.

And then it was thrown back to its original spot.

It was given an important task by Su Ping... to enter the depths of the Five-Colored Dragon Sect.

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger thought of Mu Cangtian.

It immediately understood.

Its brain was not slow, and it had already guessed part of the truth:

The unfathomable master before it possessed a Special Secret Technique that could use itself as a coordinate, and then ignore restrictions like Space Arrays and Artifact treasures to forcibly teleport over!

"Master, rest assured, how could this old one dare to disobey!"

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger only thought for a moment, and felt that since the Mu Family could be occupied so easily, dealing with a group of Demon Beasts that had just turned the tables would be a piece of cake, right?

So it hurriedly agreed with full enthusiasm.

…………

Dragon Raising Lake, there are dozens of islands of various sizes in the lake.

At the bottom of the lake, there is even a Dragon Palace covering an area of several hundred miles.

Normally, the cultivated Demon Beasts were mostly in the Dragon Palace, utilizing the Fourth-Grade Low-Rank Spirit Vein at the bottom of the lake to speed up cultivation efficiency.

The islands were mainly inhabited by the sect's low-level Cultivators and mortal families.

With a cultivation sect close at hand to look after them.

The mortals on the Dragon Raising Lake islands lived relatively well, at least they had no worries about food and clothing, and this attracted many surrounding mortal forces to come and seek refuge.

As time accumulated, the islands were covered in man-made structures, and the level of prosperity far exceeded the mortal kingdoms outside the islands.

The massive population base brought about by this became an important place for the sect to provide fresh blood during every Ascension Meeting.

It is just that, by this time and day.

On the islands of Dragon Raising Lake, all Cultivators and mortals had already become slaves.

When the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger flew above the lake and lowered its altitude under the guidance of a white flood dragon phantom.

It saw thousands upon thousands of mortals and low-level Cultivators on those bare islands.

All were shirtless, wearing chains on their shoulders, in groups of ten or a hundred.

They were laboriously dragging logs and stones, heavily constructing square stone foundations on the islands that could occupy one-third of the island's area.

The white flood dragon phantom noticed the gaze of the Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger and said proudly:

"Old Ancestor, look, statues of all the Old Ancestors will be erected on these islands."

"If you, Old Ancestor, are willing to join the sect, there will definitely be a place for you here!"

"And those mortal Cultivators."

"In the past, they used us as slaves to earn Spirit Stones for them."

"Now we don't lack their bit of labor, but we are deliberately using this to torture them."

"For this, we even deliberately suppressed the Evil Qi from breaking through the lake surface to avoid them becoming Evil Spirits."

"It is all to properly avenge the humiliation we have suffered for thousands of years, and also to clear our minds, which is beneficial to our subsequent cultivation."

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger swept over those mortal Cultivators who seemed numb, and nodded slightly to express its agreement.

Then it was taken by the overjoyed white flood dragon phantom to break through the lake surface and go directly deep into the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the lake.

Speaking of which, this Dragon Palace was not built by the Dragon Raising Sect.

It was an Ancient Relic that had already existed at the bottom of the lake ten thousand years ago.

After many turns, it was finally taken by the Dragon Raising Sect and repaired, which is how it got its current magnificent appearance.

It illuminated most of the lake bottom in a faint blue light, full of mysterious and deep beauty.

Unfortunately, after completely entering the Dragon Palace.

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger felt the high-concentration Evil Qi constantly emerging in the Dragon Palace, as well as those Demon Beasts that had already begun to mutate while breathing in and out Evil Qi to cultivate.

Especially those five flood dragon bodies at the Late Transformation Realm.

Just by stepping into the interior of the Dragon Palace array, without the interference of the array.

The Green Heaven-Swallowing Tiger saw at a glance that these five-colored flood dragons could no longer be counted as part of the Demon Beast lineage.

A dragon mouth grew on the neck of the red flood dragon, constantly devouring the surrounding Evil Qi.

A large hole was torn in the belly of the blue flood dragon, from which a bloody dragon claw would reach out from time to time, grab a small Demon Beast that was happily breathing, and stuff it into its belly, emitting a sound of *crack, crack* as it bit through the bones.

In such a terrifying scene, among the tens of thousands of Demon Beasts greedily cultivating throughout the Dragon Palace, not one felt anything abnormal.

They all circled around their respective flood dragon bodies, practicing with various expressions of joy.

Swish!

The white flood dragon, where the Evil Qi was densest and which was closest to the location of the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger, stretched its neck to look at the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

With this stretch, the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger saw that this fellow's neck was continuously extending for several thousand meters as if it were modeling clay.

This kept the dragon head within a hundred meters of it.

The white flood dragon grinned, revealing sharp teeth like a shark's.

At the same time, it allowed the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger to see that inside the mouth of this fellow, who otherwise looked normal on the outside, there were unexpectedly many pitch-black tentacles.

Deep inside, one could even vaguely see an ugly dragon head phantom.

These fellows who practiced that Secret Technique of Evil Qi.

From their physical bodies to their Divine Souls... they had all rotted away!

Yet they still believed everything was normal, and they still retained their previous consciousness.

All their behaviors were unaffected by any outside influence...

The Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger could not help but secretly heave a sigh of relief, glad that it had resisted the temptation and had not practiced this so-called Secret Technique of Evil Qi.

"Old friend, you have finally come!"

The white flood dragon showed joy, and with a gentle beckoning of its dragon claw, it retrieved a White Dragon Pearl.

"This Dragon Pearl of yours was something I specifically kept for you!"

"It contains our insights into the Secret Technique and a large amount of pure evil power."

"By simply refining this object, you can save most of the effort required to switch to the secret method."

"Cough, cough, Old White, you are really good to me!"

The Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger looked at the white flood dragon, its mouth twitching as it spoke.

"Hahaha!"

"Isn't this so that our Demon Beast clan can grow bigger and stronger during the upcoming opportunities?"

"This crisis is a catastrophe for those human Cultivators, but it is a great opportunity for our Demon Beasts!"

"Old friend! Let go of those misgivings and work with us!"

"Do not hesitate! Make your decision, old friend!"

The other flood dragons also looked at the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger one after another and shouted via sound transmission.

If not for Mu Cangtian's interference, and if these old friends before it could behave just a little more normally.

The Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger felt that it might have just given in.

But... the way things were now made it feel an inexplicable palpitation.

It had the illusion of being targeted by a natural predator!

It took a deep breath.

The Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger shook its three heads simultaneously and said:

"Old friends, it seems you are all already sick, and quite sick at that!"

"How is this any kind of Demon Beast opportunity?"

"This is clearly a great catastrophe that will lead to the extinction of our Demon Beast clan!"

As soon as the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger finished speaking.

The pupils of the five-colored flood dragons contracted, and terrifying Evil Qi erupted from their bodies.

But at that very same moment.

A white light descended.

Su Ping appeared above the head of the Emerald Heaven-Swallowing Tiger.

And the moment he appeared, the Sun Moon Star Chart emerged and unfolded.

As the Sun Moon Star Chart unfolded inside the Longgong formation.

The Space Fluctuation directly destroyed the formation, which was already riddled with holes from the influence of the Evil Qi.

Boom!

The loud noise at the bottom of the lake caused the lake water to surge into the sky.

This allowed the mortal Cultivators on the island to see with astonishment as the lake water rose into the air and rushed into the high sky.

Then it turned into a torrential downpour, scattering across the entire three-thousand-mile Dragon Raising Lake!

"Something has happened to Longgong!"

A Cultivator who was once an Inner Sect Disciple, and who had only been spared because he had just made Entry and his cultivation was low, exclaimed.

At the same time, the Demon Beasts guarding them all let out a strange cry in unison.

Like a swarm of insects that had received a summons, they ignored these mortal Cultivators and plunged into the bottom of the lake one after another!

This change further solidified the suspicion of many that something had happened to Longgong.

Some Cultivators could not help but secretly pray that it was experts from other top-tier major sects who had joined forces to exterminate those mutated Demon Beasts.

And that they would save them, these poor slaves, while they were at it...
