Talent Secret Arts and Imminent Arrival

The creature before him possessed whiskers, a mane, and a tail; its body was long like a serpent, covered in fish-like scales, adorned with deer-like antlers, and equipped with eagle-like talons—it resembled the divine dragon of Chinese mythology.

However, when Huang Wuye beheld this giant beast, it remained motionless, for although it possessed a soul, that soul was entirely hollow, devoid of any sapience.

Consequently, when Huang Wuye's soul clone seized the body, it encountered not a shred of resistance; with great fluidity, Huang Wuye absorbed all of its inheritance.

At this moment, Huang Wuye learned the name of this exotic beast: Yimu Qingli, though he preferred to call it the Yimu Azure Dragon.

This Yimu Azure Dragon was a special lifeform gestated by the Primal Universe, but because it was too powerful, it had been suppressed and failed to complete its gestation, resulting in a defective soul.

Currently, it was only at the peak of the Universe level, with a life gene intensity merely 6,400 times that of a standard human.

Had it gestated fully, its life genes should have reached perfection, but had it completed its gestation, it would never have fallen into Huang Wuye's hands to be seized.

At this moment, Huang Wuye had perfectly taken over this body, and it had become yet another of his clones: the Yimu Azure Dragon.

Huang Wuye manipulated the massive body of the Yimu Azure Dragon; as he exerted force, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, causing the entire Pygmy Kingdom to tremble.

As the Yimu Azure Dragon's massive body moved, the fluctuations of the Law of Wood became active, and all the Flower Language Clan members, sensing the tremors, flew into the sky one after another.

They flew together in twos and threes, nervously watching the commotion below, attempting to discern the cause of the shaking.

"ROAR!"

At that moment, a dragon's roar erupted from deep underground, echoing through the heavens in the blink of an eye; as the sound propagated, the surrounding giant flower clusters and plants stirred to life.

They waved their massive bodies frantically, as if welcoming their king with the most jubilant of gestures.

Finally, a behemoth revealed itself from beneath the earth; first to appear was a massive head, its long dragon whiskers rippling through space, its golden eyes casting divine light wantonly, while the crown-like horn atop its head radiated peerless majesty.

The green, fish-like scales on its body emitted a faint, cold glint, yet the vibrant vitality within them made the massive frame appear all the more lively.

Winding, rock-hard muscles outlined graceful lines, and one could be certain that no one who saw him would doubt the power he could unleash.

Four sturdy dragon claws radiated a sharp, cold light; as they passed through the soil and solid rock, it was as effortless as slicing through tofu, meeting not the slightest resistance.

Seven-colored clouds gathered in the sky, becoming an ornamental silk that made his body appear ethereal and indistinct.

It was unknown how much time had passed before the Yimu Azure Dragon's massive body was finally fully revealed in the sky.

This was a living deity; every member of the Flower Language Clan opened their eyes wide, as if to etch this scene firmly into their hearts.

Even though they were accustomed to seeing massive creatures, the miracle before them shook their very souls.

The body stretching for dozens of miles brought with it incomparable shock, and this was only the length of the Yimu Azure Dragon while slightly curled.

Suddenly, the Yimu Azure Dragon moved; his massive body shifted like a thunderbolt, traversing tens of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye, and only then did the gale arrive, scattering the stunned Flower Language Clan members in all directions.

Of course, they were no strangers to the giant beast before them; this was their Ancestral Beast, and every member of the Flower Language Clan had seen this colossus at birth.

Yet, they had only ever seen the Yimu Azure Dragon's massive head; this was their first time witnessing his full body.

Gradually, they began to celebrate—their Ancestral Beast had finally awakened.

At this moment, Huang Wuye stopped after slightly exercising the Yimu Azure Dragon's body.

He began to inventory the inherited memories and innate secret techniques from the Yimu Azure Dragon within his mind.

Although this Yimu Azure Dragon was gestated by the Primal Universe, it possessed unique inherited memories; much like the Gluttonous Golden Ape clone, Yimu Azure Dragons had appeared in previous reincarnation universes, and through their shared bloodline, he had obtained some basic inheritance.

However, those Yimu Azure Dragons had all gestated fully; while they had not achieved perfect life genes, they were still stronger than this incomplete Yimu Azure Dragon, and thus the inheritance they left behind was extraordinary.

Setting aside these basic and special secret techniques, what surprised Huang Wuye most were the Yimu Azure Dragon's innate secret techniques and natural talents.

As a member of the heaven-defying special lifeforms, the Yimu Azure Dragon's comprehension of laws was comparable to the top tier of the "darlings of the laws"—he was a darling of the Wood Origin Law, and his affinity for the Space Origin Law was no less than that of an average darling of the Space Law.

He possessed three major innate secret techniques, all of which were incredibly powerful.

The first innate secret technique was "Incarnation," which allowed him to use his racial abilities to create special lifeforms as avatars, with each avatar capable of possessing up to one percent of his own strength.

The Flower Language Clan and the many giant plants of the Pygmy Kingdom were the products of the Yimu Azure Dragon's innate secret technique, which had been activated unintentionally in the past.

These avatars possessed their own wills, but the Yimu Azure Dragon could use them as extensions of his own will; he could also divide his consciousness to control their bodies, though there was a limit to the number of avatars he could control simultaneously. Currently, the Universe-level peak Yimu Azure Dragon could control ten clones at once.

This was undoubtedly a powerful means for exploration.

The Yimu Azure Dragon's second innate secret technique was "Kinship," which allowed the Yimu Azure Dragon to take on dependents based on his own essence.

Once taken as a dependent, they would feel a soul-level affinity toward him; they could not cause him harm and would be suppressed by him.

Furthermore, he could slowly improve the life genes of his dependents, up to a maximum of one-tenth of his own life gene intensity.

Undoubtedly, this was another powerful talent that could allow Huang Wuye to cultivate countless capable subordinates.

The Yimu Azure Dragon's third talent was "Master of All Spirits." Anything of the wood attribute under the Yimu Azure Dragon's control could become his source of power.

The Yimu Azure Dragon could absorb and borrow this power to grow stronger and gain a powerful recovery rate.

When combined with his first and second talents, they complemented each other perfectly.

For instance, at this moment, Huang Wuye could absorb and borrow the power of all the giant plants and flowers in the Pygmy Kingdom.

It could be said that with this talent, Huang Wuye's Yimu Azure Dragon clone could frantically mass-produce troops and artificially create a domain of his own.

Within this domain, the Yimu Azure Dragon clone would be essentially invincible; his heaven-defying recovery rate, combined with the plant life he controlled, meant that as long as he wasn't killed instantly, he could recover in an instant.

After reviewing the Yimu Azure Dragon's talents, Huang Wuye was immensely satisfied, and he subsequently controlled the Yimu Azure Dragon's body to shrink, becoming three or four meters in size.

A dragon could be large or small; controlling one's body was the most basic ability of the Yimu Azure Dragon, though transforming into a human form would require further mastery of the body and the practice of transformation techniques.

While Huang Wuye's soul clone had acted smoothly and obtained a second clone, several years had passed.

Meanwhile, Huang Wuye's main body was also progressing rapidly, and as time moved forward, he drew closer and closer to the Initial Universe.

It was unknown how much time had passed when, inside the F-grade spaceship provided by the Virtual Universe Company, a sigh was heard; the entire ship gradually transitioned from darkness to light, revealing a figure.

With long, crimson hair falling to his waist, a delicate face full of scholarly elegance, and a white robe as neat as if it had just been pressed, without a single wrinkle, it was none other than Huang Wuye, who had just awakened from his cultivation.
