The violent airflow in the cave gradually subsided, leaving only the scattered rubble and dark red magma that had not yet cooled down.
Lucian retracted his right fist, stepped over the huge dragon corpse on the ground, walked towards the stone platform in the deepest part of the cave, and killed Shou-Lao. This was also a part of the Iron Fist trials in the past. After passing the Heart-Questioning level, he used force to prove his strength. Counting himself, it should have been the sixty-seventh time.
I'm not making this up, I really need to kill it. For those who checked the information, don't think too much about the power of Divine Dragon. Even various Qi-refining warriors who haven't become Iron Fist can be killed by clever tricks.
The stone platform is carved from a single piece of unknown ancient bluestone, and its surface is engraved with complex cloud and thunder patterns.
In the center of the pedestal, there is a metal cauldron with a simple shape - Dragonheart Crucible.
There is no flame inside the cauldron, but it is filled with boiling golden-red molten Essence. In the center of the energy that is as viscous as liquid gold, a huge heart that is the size of a millstone and has a dark golden-red color is beating powerfully and continuously with a dull "dong, dong" sound.
Every time it beats, a circle of energy ripples visible to the naked eye spreads, spreading along the veins under the stone platform to the entire K'un-Lun mountain range.
Lucian stood in front of the crucible, lowered his head and looked at it for a moment, and said thoughtfully:
"So this is the secret of your immortality? Take your heart out of your body and put it into a furnace, and bind it to the formation and the dragon veins of the entire K'un-Lun mountain range. As long as this furnace is immortal, even if the body outside is blown up thousands of times, it can absorb Essence at any time to re-condensate."
This alternative method of immortality that combines the dragon veins of heaven and earth, although it binds itself to K'un-Lun, is indeed quite ingenious.
While Lucian was observing Dragonheart Crucible.
Outside the cave, the main peak K'un-Lun.
Lei Kung, who was originally gathering his disciples to rush to the back mountain, suddenly stopped and his face suddenly turned ugly!
Behind him, thousands of K'un-Lun monks covered their chests at the same time, feeling that the "qi" running in their bodies suddenly stagnated. The entire K'un-Lun spiritual energy of heaven and earth went into violent riot at this moment, and the clouds in the sky were quickly dyed into a dazzling blood red!
"Shou-Lao... has fallen?!"
An old elder's legs gave way and he knelt down on the stone steps, his face full of horror and disbelief.
Less than three minutes have passed since that mysterious man Teleportation left Welcome Plaza!
That is Divine Dragon who has protected K'un-Lun for thousands of years, has an immortal body, and controls Essence dragon flames. Shou-Lao! Even the previous Iron Fist who was able to pass the training and kill Shou-Lao, now I am afraid that Heart-Questioning has not even finished the level. How could he be killed on the spot without even holding on for three minutes?!
Lei Kung gritted his teeth, his eyes full of horror, but years of training as a master allowed him to calm down and shouted sharply:
"Why panic! Shou-Lao and K'un-Lun's dragon veins are one and the same. As long as Dragonheart Crucible still exists, Shou-Lao will be immortal! Everyone listened to the order and immediately formed a formation with their knees crossed, running all the sect's energy and blood into the earth veins, activating Nirvana Ritual, and helping Shou-Lao accelerate the reshaping of his true body!"
"Yes!!"
Thousands of monks woke up from a dream, and regardless of the fear in their hearts, they all sat cross-legged and pressed their hands on the bluestone ground.
Buzz!
Thousands of pure Internal Qi merged into the ground veins, and the entire K'un-Lun mountain emitted a low hum. A massive amount of life Essence followed the underground veins and rushed into the Dragon's Cave at the bottom of the back mountain!
Inside the cave.
Lucian clearly felt the energy changes coming from the earth veins under his feet, and also heard the movement of thousands of people outside the cave chanting sutras in unison to stimulate their qi and blood.
He ignored the actions of Lei Kung and others.
On the side of the stone platform, there is a narrow stone path leading directly to the thousands-year-old snow mountain outside the cave. According to K'un-Lun's thousands of years of tradition, after each generation of Iron Fist's heirs defeat Shou-Lao, they will immerse their hands in the molten dragon heart in front of them to complete the connection with the power of Divine Dragon; then rush into the side narrow path and use thousands of years of snow to relieve the severe pain in their hands.
Lucian looked at the gold Red Liquid rolling in the crucible, the cuffs of his coat automatically turned up, and he directly put his hands into the furnace.
Tsk!
The hot and sticky molten Essence instantly enveloped his hands.
The huge beating dragon heart seemed to feel the provocation and contracted violently. A violent and hot Divine Dragon Essence force followed the pores of Lucian's palm and crazily penetrated into his body, trying to tear and reshape his meridians and bones!
If it were any mortal monk, he would probably be rolling on the ground in pain at this moment.
However, Lucian stood in front of the crucible without even frowning.
This violent Essence flowed through his World Tree Creation Essence transformed body, making him feel as warm as a hot spring.
Divine Dragon Essence desperately attacked his cell barriers, trying to strengthen his body, but sadly discovered that the life level and toughness of this body were so high that its impact could not even be considered as tickling the opponent!
One minute, two minutes.
The golden-red molten Essence that was originally overflowing in the crucible continued to decline at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When the liquid level in the furnace dropped by half, Lucian's slightly closed eyes finally moved slightly, sensing some changes coming from within his body.
The Divine Dragon Essence that poured into the body seemed to finally realize that it was useless to fight against this abnormal body. Driven by some ancient instinct, it decisively gave up tempering the body and instead aimed at the newly born "qi" in Lucian's Dantian!
Buzz!
The vast Divine Dragon power instantly enveloped the newborn Internal Qi extracted from the Shang-Chi method, like an experienced old horseman, pulling this extremely pure dark gold Internal Qi, broke away from some of the superficial operating routes obtained from Shang-Chi, and began to travel at high speed among Eight Extraordinary Meridians and the secret acupoints of Lucian!
The two meridians of Ren and Du, Chong mei, Dai mei, Yin dimension, Yang dimension...
Every crossing of the meridians, every resonance frequency of the vibration of the internal organs, led by this Essence power, shows a completely different, yet completely natural and mysterious rhythm.
A complete great week is completed.
Boom!
In Lucian's Dantian, the dark gold Internal Qi that was originally only as thick as a hair, after devouring a massive amount of Divine Dragon Essence and completing the baptism of Zhoutian, its volume instantly increased dozens of times, turning into a condensed dark gold air flow that surged through the meridians!
Lucian activates microscopic perception, and completely imprints every acupoint node and cell resonance frequency of every breath and exhalation that Divine Dragon has just driven Internal Qi into in his mind.
"Sure enough, there are some tricks."
Lucian felt the growing Internal Qi in his body and thought to himself.
Previously, what was imprinted on Shang-Chi was only Ten Rings's family qigong and part of the Daluo Secret Realm's basic breathing skills, which are equivalent to the foundation of building a house; but what is contained in Dragonheart Crucible at this moment is inherited from the ancient Divine Beasts and directly refers to Life Magnetic Field. Essence's core Qi movement summary! The energy in the furnace improves the physical body of every Iron Fist in the same way, but the height of Qi varies from person to person. The strongest Iron Fist Wu Fengji can even forcibly carry Phoenix Force with Qi.
Phoenix Force Wu Fengji
Through this baptism, his understanding of the essence of "qi", the life energy, directly jumped to a whole new level.
"K'un-Lun, who is just a branch secret realm, can already use life energy to this extent. Then the 'Great Luo Heaven' that is more ancient and powerful, with heavenly Jade Emperor and real Divine Dragon guardians, is even more worth looking forward to."
Da Luo's Guardian Divine Dragon
Lucian A flash of light flashed in his eyes.
He is not satisfied with copying the Iron Fist method of K'un-Lun. He also needs to collect and refer to more high-level samples of mythical secret realms, completely integrate them with the rules of Compound V, Extremis Virus and even Infinity Stones, and deduce a set of supreme methods that are unique to him.
At that time, not only will his own combat power be able to make breakthroughs, but the relatives and friends around him who have exhausted their potential after being injected with the medicine can also use this to completely break their shackles and embark on a real long journey to the gods!
