Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

As the Peeling Technique circulated, strands of Water Spirit Power drilled into the Dragon Fish's body.

In an instant, it began to struggle violently, but because it was in midair with nothing to leverage against, it could only endure this pain.

Vaguely, Xu Zhangqing felt that the released Water Spirit Power seemed to have touched something, emitting a faint baleful aura.

The golden light on the Dragon Fish dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just the span of three breaths it completely "extinguished."

Even the red scales on its body began to develop fine white spots, revealing a hint of weakness and sickness.

"Collect."

Xu Zhangqing controlled the Water Spirit Power to retract, and it quickly formed a droplet of blood about the size of a grain of rice in front of him.

Overall it was a pale gold color, with a tiny black dot faintly visible inside.

At this moment, the Youlong Nine Transformations instinctively began to operate, obviously producing a strong longing for this drop of essence blood containing the Dragon Bloodline before him.

Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing neither refused nor resisted, decisively choosing to absorb it.

Whoosh!

With the aid of the Youlong Nine Transformations, he inhaled it into his body in an instant.

Immediately after, the Attribute Panel underwent a change.

Youlong Nine Transformations: Dragon Fish Transformation

Effect 1: Breathe freely underwater

Effect 2: Move freely underwater

Special Effect 1: Peeling Technique

Xu Zhangqing was thoughtful: "Meaning, I absorbed a trace of the Dragon Fish's bloodline, and then obtained the Dragon Fish's abilities?

If I want to achieve the Nine Transformations, wouldn't I need to absorb eight more kinds of creatures containing the Dragon Bloodline!"

One word: the difficulty isn't ordinary large.

So far, only two kinds with the Dragon Bloodline can be contacted.

One kind is the Dragon Fish, which is in my Personal Space.

One kind is the Rolling Earth Dragon, which has only appeared in the Loose Cultivator market.

As for the Reverse Meridian Dragon Transformation Insect Mother, that ability — just thinking about it, forget it.

And ever since Huang Yuanhua's Cave Abode was gone, the Rolling Earth Dragon was gone too.

At this time, Xu Zhangqing suddenly thought of Xuanxin City, and realized: "A Jiao Dragon is also a Dragon!"

The tower Zhao Qianyun resides in is named the Zhenjiao Tower.

Moreover, even his room has a Canglan Hunting Jiao Painting displayed.

Therefore, without surprise, Xuanxin City — or the Canglan Sea Region — absolutely has Jiao Dragons appearing.

Of course, with so many Water Demons and Sea Monsters, there are certainly also varieties containing the Dragon Bloodline.

But opportunities only remain eight times; I must consider carefully.

Thinking of the scene when his Five Spiritual Roots broke through, Xu Zhangqing only felt his head ache: "I cannot let go of any opportunity to strengthen myself, but I still have to wait and see if the Immortal Sect's Elders can catch Rong Long."

Without the threat of this Character-Based Golden Core, I can go to Xuanxin City with peace of mind; otherwise I'd be anxious all day.

The next second, Xu Zhangqing's body seemed to lose control, hugging the Dragon Fish that had lost the Dragon Bloodline as they fell from midair, one person and one fish "plop" — instantly submerging into the water.

This time, whether the splashing spray or the ripples spreading out, they were actually not obvious at all.

Xu Zhangqing in the water released the Dragon Fish, and it turned and fled like a panicked "Rabbit."

However, because it had lost the Dragon Bloodline, it was extremely weak, especially in speed, which could already no longer compare to its own kind.

It looked like it had become just a normal large Carp.

Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing thought secretly: "Rest assured, I won't abandon you."

Next, he carefully sensed the effects brought by the first transformation of the Youlong Nine Transformations.

The first is moving freely underwater; this point is very obvious.

Previous speed, combined with the Soft Water Art, was only twice as fast as swimming.

Now, after gaining the Dragon Fish Transformation's effect bonus, it's at least three times faster.

Movement speed is extremely fast; not only can he catch up to the Dragon Fish, he can even easily surpass it.

The overall feeling is already very close to Water Control.

As for underwater breathing, he originally thought some bodily change would occur.

The result was discovered: it's actually through pores all over the body, plus absorbing Water Spiritual Energy, to carry out a cycle similar to breathing.

Furthermore, Xu Zhangqing discovered that places with more living water have higher oxygen content.

Places with denser Water Spiritual Energy still have oxygen content that is not low.

After a round of trying, he was thoroughly familiar.

Then with a thought, his whole person disappeared from the water.

When he appeared again, he was already in the pitch-black Cultivation Room.

"Nine Transformations total, meaning I can absorb nine kinds!"

"If I can find a true Fish-Dragon, wouldn't I directly gain Water Control power?"

"If each transformation has two effects, all combined together... hiss!"

Xu Zhangqing grew more shocked the more he thought about it, even his scalp went numb.

This Youlong Nine Transformations was absolutely no simple Water Attribute Technique.

It did not need to rely on the system for improvement; it only needed to constantly strip away the Dragon Bloodline.

To be honest, it had a bit of an Evil Cultivator flavor to it.

……

……

During the day, Xu Zhangqing and the others came to the Linggan Platform again.

Ever since the first day, after those few of them set up stalls and made big money, soon someone started imitating them.

It was just that these people's goods, whether in quality or variety, were all worse by more than one tier.

Therefore, not many people were truly willing to buy, and Xu Zhangqing and the others still occupied the largest customer flow.

Xu Zhangqing, having just finished selling a Full Escort Package, suddenly saw someone beside him looking at him timidly: "How come you're here again?"

Ruo Qunshuang clutched the corner of her clothes and said somewhat embarrassedly: "I don't know where to go."

Xu Zhangqing scratched his head, then took out a stool and handed over a piece of watermelon: "Then keep eating melon."

Ruo Qunshuang smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "How many spirit stones?"

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "Don't be polite, this thing is piled up full in my Gourd."

Ruo Qunshuang sat down honestly, eating melon while tilting her head: "I heard others say you are a Spirit Farmer?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "Right."

A trace of reminiscence flashed in Ruo Qunshuang's eyes: "No one in the Jiuqu Sect plants it; every time Father goes out he buys large amounts of Sea Rice..."

Xu Zhangqing asked curiously: "What exactly happened to the Jiuqu Sect?"

Hearing this, Ruo Qunshuang's face turned slightly cold, she subconsciously clenched her hands, and said with hatred: "I vaguely heard something roaring, no, it should be wailing, then the earth cracked open countless fissures, and huge amounts of Polluted Spirit Water surged out!"

Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow: "Wailing?"

Afterwards, Ruo Qunshuang returned to her usual taciturn self.

She didn't speak, just sat there in a daze.

Occasionally she took a bite of watermelon, then continued to sit in a daze.

As the time came to the afternoon, the Pei Ling Shi Token at Xu Zhangqing's waist vibrated.

"Hua Lao?"

"Are you available now?"

"Something to find me for?"

"It's not me finding you, it's Master He finding you."

"What is it?"

"Master He says, Rong Long has been caught!"

Xu Zhangqing stared wide-eyed, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

In the early hours, he himself had still been pondering exactly when to catch Rong Long.

Unexpectedly, good news came in the afternoon.

Immediately, he summoned Lin An over, had the other sell goods in his place, then came to the Outside of the Linggan Platform, summoned Broken Moon Flowing Frost, rose into the air, and flew quickly toward the Spirit Field where Zhu Fuxian was!
