Chapter 546: The Strongest Meat Shield (Second Update, requesting everything)
In the final stage, nine large planets revolve rapidly around a golden star that symbolizes the Eternal Indestructible Body characteristic.
If Yuangungun were in its prime, it would naturally have full confidence, but now it only has forty percent of its peak speed, which has significantly increased the difficulty.
Additionally, a large pink planet affects Yuangungun's mind from time to time during the rotation.
Whenever it sees this pink orb, various lewd scenes of mating automatically surface in the depths of Yuangungun's consciousness.
The closer it gets, the more intense this feeling becomes.
This is naturally the famous Lust characteristic, which belongs to the Negative Characteristic category; if the opponent is of the opposite sex during battle, one would be greatly affected!
Unfortunately, the pink planet does not have much influence on Yuangungun; after all, what Yuangungun cares about most is eating and sleeping, so it does not care much about this aspect, and the influence on it is naturally negligible.
Yuangungun stares intently at the nine constantly revolving planets, waiting for the best opportunity.
It naturally heard from Adai that these nine planets will show a relatively large flaw at a certain period, and this is its only chance.
With its current speed, as long as it seizes this opportunity, it has at least a seventy percent chance of success.
Within a few breaths, Yuangungun finally waited for the opportunity, as a not-so-small gap appeared between the cyan planet and the red planet.
The timing was fleeting, and Yuangungun naturally could not miss it; it immediately took action and rushed over with an indomitable momentum.
Because the preparation was sufficient, compared to Adai's last time, Yuangungun's state was better and its speed was faster.
Before the cyan planet and the red planet were about to close, Yuangungun rushed in one step ahead and charged directly into the golden star.
The whole process could be said to be thrilling but safe, and everything was as if it had been planned.
At the same time, a piece of information was received by Yuangungun, accompanied by a special power as vast as an abyss.
This power poured madly into Yuangungun's body, continuously transforming its physique.
Amidst a dizzying spin, Yuangungun's consciousness returned to its physical body.
The moment Yuangungun's consciousness left, the planets in the Characteristic Space stopped rotating, the meteors stopped shining, the comets stopped dashing, and the entire Characteristic Space came to a complete standstill.
In an instant, the massive Eye of the Heavenly Dao suddenly descended and took a glance at the dim, lusterless golden star.
Suddenly, the golden star expanded violently and exploded with a boom.
When the explosion vanished, the golden star turned into a streak of golden light and surged straight into the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
The Eye of the Heavenly Dao took one last look at the Characteristic Space and finally disappeared in a bizarre manner.
Yuangungun did not open its eyes and remained lying quietly on the ground, its whole body trembling uncontrollably, emitting dense, crisp sounds of bones.
Rip— Rip—
Suddenly, Yuangungun's Thick Fat was continuously torn apart, revealing red flesh and blood; its massive body became riddled with holes, as if it had been slashed by a thousand knives.
Some wounds were very deep, and one could faintly see the pulsating internal organs and bones.
The bizarre thing was that such heavy injuries did not bleed a single drop of blood, as if blocked by some magical power.
Seeing such changes in Yuangungun, Li Changsheng revealed a brilliant smile, because this meant that Yuangungun had successfully obtained the Eternal Indestructible Body characteristic.
Following the experience from last time, Li Changsheng had no intention of healing Yuangungun at all and just stood by the side waiting quietly.
Soon, Yuangungun underwent changes again.
Yuangungun's flesh and blood began to squirm spontaneously, healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Hiss— Hiss—
Before it could fully heal, some wounds split open again, and new wounds appeared, followed by these wounds squirming again.
This process lasted for half an hour, and Yuangungun's wounds completely healed.
However, Yuangungun still did not stop changing, and the white light of advancement began to fill its massive body.
In the brilliant white light, Yuangungun's size kept growing until its height reached nearly 15 meters before finally stopping; it had finally become a Lord-level Demon Pet.
Only then did Yuangungun finally open its eyes, and like Adai, its eyes had turned golden.
In this way, Yuangungun successfully obtained the Eternal Indestructible Body characteristic; even if it was only a primary Eternal Indestructible Body, it was still no less inferior to the Limb Regeneration characteristic.
If combined with the Thick Fat characteristic, Yuangungun became the strongest meat shield in Li Changsheng's hands.
Li Changsheng did not return to the bedroom; he took out the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron and placed it on the ground in the backyard, with a large pile of Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor materials—dragon scales, dragon skin, dragon tendons, and dragon horns—in front of him.
The Ancestral Black Dragon was a Divine Beast after all, even if it was a bottom-tier one, so the value of these materials could be imagined.
However, because Hei Long Ha Li Ku Qi used a Dragon Clan Secret Technique to accelerate the extraction of the Ancestral Black Dragon's aura, the grade of these materials inevitably dropped somewhat.
Even so, relying solely on these materials, it was still possible to refine a Top-Grade Treasure.
Among this batch of materials, the most precious were naturally the two dragon horns, and Li Changsheng planned to refine them last.
Before refining the Treasure, Li Changsheng prepared to smelt a large number of dragon scales, mixed with dragon skin and dragon tendons, to attempt to make two sets of Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor with stronger defensive capabilities.
The Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor on Li Changsheng and Ning Bizhen had never been refined at all; it was entirely pieced together by Li Changsheng, yet it still possessed decent defensive capabilities.
Li Changsheng planned to refine these two sets of Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor into Strange Treasures; in this way, they could be stored in the Consciousness Sea, which would be much more convenient than before, unlike before when he had to take off the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor at the fastest speed before transforming into a Black Tortoise.
Even if Li Changsheng possessed a one-second undressing skill like 'Xinnozhu', he still felt it was troublesome.
Li Changsheng did not hand over the work of melting the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor to the Crowned Flame Bird, but instead called over the Three-Legged Fire Crow that was perched on a large tree in the backyard.
After becoming a Demon King-level Demon Pet, the Three-Legged Fire Crow's Sun True Fire characteristic had reached the third stage, and the flame temperature naturally far exceeded that of the Crowned Flame Bird.
"Three-Legged Fire Crow, thank you for your hard work!"
Caw—
The Three-Legged Fire Crow responded, showing a look of willingness.
Li Changsheng put hundreds of catties of Ancestral Black Dragon scales into the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron, and under his command, the Three-Legged Fire Crow opened its sharp Bird Beak and sprayed a red and gold Flame Pillar, which landed in the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron.
The next moment, a scorching high temperature was about to spread, so Li Changsheng took the lead to close the Restriction, wrapping the area within three zhang around the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron.
The melting point of the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron was extremely high; unless it was the true Sun True Fire, how could it be easily dissolved?
When operating, the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron began to show jade-like clouds and mist, shaped like a dragon, looking as if a jade dragon was circling the cauldron.
Li Changsheng hovered beside the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron, while the Three-Legged Fire Crow sprayed red and gold flames from time to time, which fell into the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron, continuously scorching the Ancestral Black Dragon's scales.
Soon, the dragon scales began to melt, accompanied by wisps of black energy, which were the impurities within the dragon scales.
It took half an hour for all the Dragon Scales to melt, turning into a large mass of black liquid.
Li Zhangsheng did not call for a stop, so the Three-Legged Fire Crow naturally did not stop; under its efforts, the volume of the black liquid was constantly shrinking.
By the time the volume of the black liquid stopped shrinking, another hour or so had passed, and the black liquid had shrunk significantly, leaving only a bucket-sized amount.
At this moment, Li Zhangsheng took out two pieces of processed Ancestral Black Dragon Dragon Skin; these two pieces of Dragon Skin were taken from the abdomen of the Ancestral Black Dragon and were naturally the essence among Dragon Skins.
Besides the Dragon Skin, there were also some Dragon Scales that had been prepared by Cutting.
At this very moment, the artifact refining had reached a critical juncture; success or failure depended on this one move.
Li Zhangsheng's ten fingers danced, condensing one twisted Silver Seal Script after another, which flew into the black liquid like butterflies flitting through flowers.
In the span of a few breaths, Li Zhangsheng struck out dozens of Seal Techniques.
Inside the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron, the black liquid began to spin rapidly, and dense Silver Seal Scripts emerged upon its surface.
"Disperse!"
Li Zhangsheng gave a soft shout, and the black liquid instantly transformed into hundreds of uniform droplets.
Under the control of his Mental Power, the hundreds of droplets took the shape of Dragon Scales, and after cooling and solidifying, they became hundreds of black, gleaming Dragon Scales.
Through the extraction of impurities and the refining technique, the hardness of these Dragon Scales far exceeded what they were before; as the price, Li Zhangsheng had consumed hundreds of catties of Dragon Scales.
These Dragon Scales could have originally been made into more than ten sets of Dragon Scale Armor, but now they had become the amount for two sets, though their defensive capabilities were incomparable to before.
Soon, Li Zhangsheng combined the Dragon Scales, Dragon Skin, and Dragon Tendon together, but this was not the end; he once again pinched out Seal Techniques, smelting the three together.
Only at this moment did the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor emit an inexplicable fluctuation, faintly resonating with the entire world.
"Complete!"
Li Zhangsheng let out a sigh of relief and took two sets of Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor of different sizes out of the Jade Dragon Mist Cauldron; the smaller one was for Ning Bizhen, and he believed it would be a perfect fit, as Li Zhangsheng knew her measurements very well.
Not long after, Li Zhangsheng refined the larger Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor and took it into his Consciousness Sea.
In an instant, the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor reappeared, directly covering Li Zhangsheng's body, and was immediately enveloped by a deep blue protective barrier.
This was an innate ability of the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor; Li Zhangsheng tested the strength of the barrier, and although it was not as good as the defense of the Third-Grade Star Palace Lotus Platform, it was an auxiliary feature after all, as the Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor relied mainly on its own protection.
"Three-Legged Fire Crow, take this to your master!"
Watching the Three-Legged Fire Crow leave with the other set of Ancestral Dragon Scale Armor, Li Zhangsheng swallowed an Alchemical Pill and, holding a Superior Soul Crystal in his hand, quickly replenished his consumed Mental Power.
Once his Mental Power was fully restored, he looked at the remaining Ancestral Black Dragon materials, preparing to start refining a Treasure, and incidentally, to re-refine the Black Gold Dragon Spear.
