Dragon Emperor Art (Part Two)

These characters looked smaller than sesame seeds, but when Yi Yun's divine sense immersed himself in them, he felt as if he were standing in a vast and empty world. Each small character transformed into a huge font, and each stroke was like a startled dragon, containing a magnificent aura, as if the characters were naturally formed by the creation of heaven and earth.

Yi Yun couldn't help but touch it again. The combination of his fingertips and the words gave him a sense of supreme majesty, as if it were the chaotic aura that flowed from the Primordial Universe at the beginning of time.

"The contents of these words..." Yi Yun read carefully and discovered that it was actually a cultivation technique. "Could this be the <Dragon Emperor Art>!?"

Yi Yun continued reading and confirmed that the characters contained within the nine golden dragon scales were indeed the <Dragon Emperor Art>!

The Dragon Emperor Art Kanglong Ding, but it is not a book or a fragment of a book as the old snake thought. It is a supreme scripture engraved inside the Kanglong Ding.

These scriptures, along with the nine Five-clawed Golden Dragon carved here, are all part of the Dragon Emperor Art.

The golden dragon carving itself also contains the artistic conception and laws of the <Dragon Emperor Art>.

"Finally found it."

Yi Yun was overjoyed, but at the same time he was also saddened. It turned out that the <Dragon Emperor Art> was engraved inside the Kanglong Ding. Even the purest bloodline of a dragon descendant could not draw out the <Dragon Emperor Art> with their own bloodline unless they established a spiritual connection with the Kanglong Ding and truly entered the internal space of the Kanglong Ding.

Having found the Dragon Emperor Art, Yi Yun was not in a hurry to read it. Having suddenly obtained such a supreme technique, he should not be impatient.

He has just experienced a life-or-death situation, and his mental state has fluctuated greatly. In this state of mind, he is not suited to reading "The Dragon Emperor Art".

When important figures accomplish great things, they often follow a ritual: burning incense, bathing, fasting, and offering sacrifices. These rituals are not without purpose; they can help people achieve a state of tranquility and accomplish their tasks to the best effect.

Yi Yun sat cross-legged in the Kanglong Ding, closed his eyes, concentrated, and regulated his breathing.

On one hand, he continued to digest the life essence in the Dragon Blood Fruit, and on the other hand, he calmed his mind and brought himself to the best mental state.

A full hour passed before Yi Yun opened his eyes during meditation. His eyes were like deep pools, gleaming with a captivating light.

With this preparation, Yi Yun solemnly began reading <The Dragon Emperor Art>.

It took Yi Yun a full half hour to finish reading the first volume of "Dragon Emperor Art," which also contained the first illustration.

If Yi Yun were to read a book using his Spiritual Sense, he could finish it instantly. However, every word in the <Dragon Emperor Art> contains profound meaning and implications, which he must carefully savor and comprehend.

After finishing reading the first volume of "Dragon Emperor Art," Yi Yun was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that "Dragon Emperor Art" would be such a set of techniques, completely different from all the techniques he had ever practiced in his life.

Most cultivation methods introduce principles, the circulation routes of energy within the body, or sword techniques, knife techniques, and so on.

However, the "Dragon Emperor Art" is about how to develop life's potential.

According to the "Dragon Emperor Art," when this technique is cultivated to its peak and one's life potential is developed to its limit, one can cultivate a dragon within one's body.

Let a martial artist's vitality rival that of True Dragon!

The first volume of the <Dragon Emperor Art> that Yi Yun is currently reading, once mastered, allows him to draw upon his life potential at any time, multiplying his combat power—an effect equivalent to burning his life essence.

However, burning one's essence and blood is very harmful; once a little essence and blood is burned, it is all gone, and it is extremely difficult to replenish it.

However, the <Dragon Emperor Art> does not have this harm. It can be used freely to stimulate life potential. At most, it consumes a lot of vital energy, which can be replenished by rest.

Of course, doing all this is not easy; first, the cultivator needs a strong body.

A significant portion of the "Dragon Emperor Art" is dedicated to how to cultivate the body.

After reading it, Yi Yun discovered that the "Dragon Emperor Sarira" refined by the Myriad Gods Ancestor was recorded in the <Dragon Emperor Art>.

In fact, the Dragon Emperor Sarira is the first divine medicine recorded in the "Dragon Emperor Art," and the records in the "Dragon Emperor Art" are more detailed than those of the Myriad Gods Ancestor.

"So that's how it is. The Myriad Gods Ancestor somehow obtained the recipe for the Dragon Emperor Sarira, and this Dragon Emperor Sarira actually comes from the <Dragon Emperor Art>. After the Myriad Gods Ancestor refined the Dragon Emperor Sarira and swallowed it, it was equivalent to entering the <Dragon Emperor Art> a little bit."

"Even just mastering the basics of the <Dragon Emperor Art> would greatly increase the strength of the Myriad Gods Ancestor and give him a chance to open the Kanglong Ding."

Yi Yun muttered to himself, "This is just one of the Body Refinement elixirs in the Dragon Emperor Art. If it has such an effect, who knows how much my strength will improve if I cultivate the entire Dragon Emperor Art."

However, the resources consumed in cultivating the Dragon Emperor Art are astronomical. Almost every pill recorded in the Dragon Emperor Art is a divine medicine, which gives Yi Yun a headache.

Actually, cultivating the Dragon Emperor Art wouldn't normally consume so many resources. It's just that the true Dragon Emperor Art is prepared for those who possess pure Dragon Emperor Bloodline, while Yi Yun's body is merely that of a mortal. The process of cultivating the Dragon Emperor Art requires a complete transformation.

As Yi Yun was thinking, the Kanglong Ding suddenly began to tremble.

"Um?"

With a thought, Yi Yun released his Spiritual Sense and looked outside the Kanglong Ding.

The Kanglong Ding has its own closed space inside, and no one else can explore it. However, Yi Yun is connected to the Kanglong Ding blood, so he can observe what is happening in the outside world.

Upon closer inspection, Yi Yun discovered that the Kanglong Ding had already been surrounded by layers of formations by the Myriad Gods Ancestor.

A newly set up super array imprisoned the Kanglong Ding Cauldron at its core.

Dozens of Formation Flag were planted around the great array. In addition, many elders and disciples of Myriad Gods Ridge also surrounded the Kanglong Ding in layers.

"Yi Yun!?"

The Myriad Gods Ancestor had extremely keen senses; even when Yi Yun was observing him from inside the Kanglong Ding, he still noticed.

"You little beast, don't let me catch you, or I'll torture you with the most vicious and painful methods in the world, making you wish you were dead!" the Myriad Gods Ancestor roared angrily. He had never suffered such a loss in his life, and today he had been tricked so badly by a junior like Yi Yun.

"You old bastard, stop talking the talk, I'm right here waiting, come and bite me!"

Yi Yun deliberately mocked him from inside the cauldron—he wasn't afraid of angering the Myriad Gods Ancestor, since he had already offended him to the extreme and it was a fight to the death, so he might as well curse him to his heart's content.

Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, the Myriad Gods Ancestor was furious, "Go ahead and use your silver tongue! The more you enjoy talking now, the more miserable your death will be later!"

"Old turtle, what you're saying is actually making me a little scared... Speaking of which, the Dragon Blood Fruit I just ate was really delicious. The flesh was tender and juicy, melted in my mouth, fragrant and sweet. Old turtle, where did you pick these fruits? Tell me, I'd like to go and take a stroll around and try my luck to see if I can pick a few more. The Dragon Blood Fruit were too small, I didn't get enough of them."

Yi Yun was now saying the most disgusting things possible, and the Myriad Gods Ancestor looked as ugly as if he had just eaten two pounds of dead flies; he was so angry he felt like his gall bladder was about to explode.

That's Dragon Blood Fruit! For the past million years, he's been elusive in the Myriad Gods Ridge, rarely seen or even heard of. Why is that? It's because he's always traveling, searching for Divine Treasure! He's rarely in the sect.

He spent countless hours gathering the three main ingredients: Nine-Revolutions Green Wood Fruit, Dragon Blood Fruit, and Dragon Bone Milk. Now, the Dragon Blood Fruit, which he obtained at great cost, is being eaten by Yi Yun like fruit!
