Although Xuan Ming possessed a considerable Dragon Clan bloodline due to the Martial Soul Mutation, he was still far from being able to touch the dragon king's bones.
She had originally planned to help Xuan Ming absorb the power of the dragon bone after he had cultivated his Dragon Martial Soul to a certain level, but now that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had been exposed, the Angel God's worshipper might not stop there. Just in case, she had no choice but to use some special methods.
"You cannot absorb the complete dragon bone right now, but I can seal its energy into your body, allowing you to absorb it slowly and gradually transform your body, giving you the physique of True Dragon King," the Ice Dragon King said.
"And the price?" Xuan Ming asked.
"If there were no consequences, you would have done it already."
"It's not that the cost is too high, but rather..." The Ice Dragon King paused.
I'm a little worried.
Xuan Ming was slightly taken aback. "What are you worried about?"
"Once the power of the dragon bones merges into your body, there will be no turning back," the Ice Dragon King said.
"The power of the dragon bone is extremely domineering. Your current cultivation level is too low. If you absorb that thing, your bloodline will gradually be transformed into that of True Dragon King, and you will be completely unrelated to humans... except for the resemblance in appearance. Even transformed Soul Beast are closer to humans than you."
She was still worried about the Divine Realm, especially the Asura God!
The Divine Realm doesn't have much of a problem with the Soul Beast Clan, after all, not many gods in the Divine Realm are ascended from humans, and there are all kinds of races.
Kindness, Evil, Life, Destruction, Asura —these five have absolutely nothing to do with humans.
However, the Dragon Clan is different, especially the Dragon King.
If they cause a ruckus in the mortal realm, the Divine Realm won't care. But if it touches the God Realm, the other God King might first assess the situation to see if it poses a threat to the Divine Realm before deciding on a course of action. But the Asura God, that guy would probably just draw his sword and kill them!
She had previously discussed with the Fire Dragon King that if they could help Xuan Ming ascend to godhood through other methods, they should try to avoid using the power of the Dragon Clan first, otherwise the risk would be too great.
"I don't care whether someone is human or not," Xuan Ming said.
"However, if you're worried about this... why don't you try continuing to integrate the power of the dragon bone into the Soul Bone?"
"But I'm afraid your Soul Bone can't withstand it," the Ice Dragon King said.
If the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone cannot withstand the energy of the Dragon Bone and leaks out, that would be even more dangerous!
Xuan Ming's body will be forcibly taken over by the Dragon King's bloodline power, and even she doesn't know what will happen.
"What if I integrate the power of the dragon bones into the two dragons on my back?" Xuan Ming asked.
"Treat them as Soul Bone to store energy."
" Soul Bone?" The Ice Dragon King pondered.
"These two dragons are one with you, or they're connected to your body."
The two dragons on Xuan Ming's back grew from his spine at the location of his shoulder blades, essentially splitting into three heads.
"But they are ultimately physical manifestations of Martial Soul generated by mutation," Xuan Ming said.
"Give it a try, maybe it'll work?"
The Ice Dragon King thought for a moment, then said, "Alright."
" Fire Dragon King, wake up, get back to work!"
The Fire Dragon King awoke, and his dragon soul took control of the Black Dragon to the left rear of Xuan Ming. "If we seal it at the point where the spine splits, we should be able to control the power of the dragon bones from dissipating."
"But this is only temporary. To stabilize these two energies, you need to condense Soul Core."
"It will take a while."
The phantom of the Ice Dragon King floated out, "Are you sleeping, or are you diving and spying?"
"You think I'm like you?" the Fire Dragon King said speechlessly.
"I only woke up when you were about to possess me."
He thought a fight was about to begin, since the dragon soul had already started to revive, but suddenly the woman rushed down.
"How long will it take?" Xuan Ming asked.
"I don't know," said the Fire Dragon King.
"With your current cultivation level, condensing Soul Core is very difficult, but with our help, you should be able to barely condense one that's close enough."
"Let's give it a try then, anyway, I don't have anything else to do lately." Xuan Ming took out the Blue Silver Emperor from the Soul Tool and planted the Lovesick Heartbreak Red again.
"I'm going down now. If Dugu Bo comes, have him pass on a message to Ah Rou and the others. Don't worry, I'm going into seclusion."
"Do you want to tell us about getting beaten up?" Ah Yin asked.
"What do you think?" Xuan Ming asked, speechless.
"Don't say anything, just pretend this never happened."
"What if those two women come again?" Ah Yin asked.
"Play dead," Xuan Ming said.
Don't talk to them.
"Okay." Ah Yin nodded.
Be careful.
"Hmm." Xuan Ming took off his clothes and plunged into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Ah Yin walked to the shore, manipulated the vines extending from her main body to tidy up Xuan Ming's clothes, and then sat down with a thud, watching the water gradually calm down.
"How long will it take to soak this time...?"
Chapter 177 Five Attributes
Half a year has passed quietly.
At the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the water surface is as calm as a clear mirror, and the surrounding mist seems to have taken on a lazy quality, like a soft veil gently covering this uniquely blessed land.
Suddenly, ripples spread across the calm water, spreading outwards like concentric circles of waves.
Immediately afterwards, a figure leaped out of the water, creating a large splash of crystal-clear water that shimmered with iridescent colors in the sunlight.
This sudden energy fluctuation instantly awakened Ah Yin from her slumber.
The Blue Silver Emperor vines trembled slightly, and Ah Yin's phantom appeared on the ground. She was about to say something, but she was somewhat bewildered by the figure in front of her that was different from the one in the past.
Where's your dragon?
Ah Yin stared wide-eyed, a little bewildered, at Xuan Ming's bare back, her voice full of confusion.
"Your dragon is gone?"
"Still there." Xuan Ming remained calm. With a thought, the space behind his spine began to distort and shift, as if an invisible force was tearing at the space.
As a slight ripple spread through the space, the two Black Dragon "grew" out of the space once again.
However, unlike before, although it still appears to be attached to his body, it actually came through from the other side of space.
Besides finally being able to relax and lie on the ground, his image has become deeply ingrained in people's minds, and this appearance can also be used to conceal his whereabouts.
"Spatial attributes?" Ah Yin looked completely bewildered.
Where did you come from?
"It has always been there," Xuan Ming said.
According to the Ice Dragon King, the five attributes of light, darkness, space, time, and spirit all exist within his mutated Black Dragon Martial Soul, and his White Light Domain is essentially the effect of the fusion of these five attributes.
However, he had not cultivated the Black Dragon Martial Soul before, and these abilities had not even been activated yet.
His Dragon Martial Soul originally belonged to the Black Dragon lineage, and among his bloodlines, the dark attribute was the most powerful.
The dark attribute has the effect of annihilating all things, so once enveloped by its domain, all Life will gradually come to an end.
As for the illusion of death that even Titled Douluo could sense, the Ice Dragon King guessed that it was a special effect produced by the fusion of darkness, spirit, and time attributes.
That wasn't an illusion, but rather the force of time that made them truly feel their own death!
It might be a harrowing experience from the past, or it might be a major crisis in the future.
Because it is real, even a Peerless Douluo of Qian Daoliu's level cannot be immune to it.
His strange sensory abilities, whether it be a keen sense of danger or a precise perception of the emotions of others, are likely a marvelous effect resulting from the fusion of Mental Attribute and temporal attributes.
The Ice Dragon King had never seen such a complex fusion of attributes, so she hadn't been able to understand the specific reasons behind his abilities before.
Now, the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King have merged their dragon bones into his Black Dragon. This incredibly powerful energy has given his Martial Soul and physical body a double boost, and the bloodline power of his dragon Martial Soul has been fully activated, revealing those hidden attributes.
The two dragons on his back still existed, but he used spatial power to store them into his body.
"How long have I been down there?" Xuan Ming asked.
Ah Yin thought for a moment and said, "It's been about half a year."
When Xuan Ming jumped into this place, the Ice Dragon King was awake and would occasionally chat with her.
But this time, since Xuan Ming jumped down, there has been no movement for half a year, and the Ice Dragon King has not surfaced again.
Fortunately, she could sense Xuanming's Life force through the Soul Bone on Xuan Ming body, otherwise she would have thought he had drowned!
"Has anything happened outside in the past six months?" Xuan Ming asked again.
The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King had to seal the energy of the dragon bones into the Black Dragon on his body and help him condense his Soul Core. They hadn't rested for a moment in the past six months, and now the Ice Dragon King was so tired that he fell asleep.
"Outside?" Ah Yin tilted her head and thought for a moment.
" Dugu Bo came a few times, that female Pope came a few times, Qian Renxue also came a few times."
"Did Dugu Bo say anything?" Xuan Ming asked.
Because he changed his cultivation method, the problem of the poison getting out of control was solved at its root. Dugu Bo no longer needed the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to help suppress the snake venom, so he only occasionally returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to tend to the flowers and plants there.
"He didn't say anything. He came back a few times and planted some things here. When he saw you hadn't come up, he left," Ah Yin said.
He only said once that if you come up here, go back to Heaven Dou City and take a look, Dugu Yan and the others are very worried.
"What about Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue?" Xuan Ming then asked.
"Are they alright?"
"They're both terrifying," Ah Yin said angrily.
"That female Pope almost dug up all the Lovesick Heartbreak Red!"
" The Lovesick Heartbreak Red?" Xuan Ming was taken aback, then glanced at the remaining Immortal Herb and found that nothing had changed.
"Stop looking. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have dug this place up long ago." Ah Yin pouted.
"She almost dug me out too."
"Why is she digging at you?" Xuan Ming asked, puzzled.
"How would I know?" Ah Yin, feeling a little wronged.
"She's perfectly fine when she talks to you, but when she talks to me... she keeps trying to scratch me."
Xuan Ming's eyes twitched slightly. Bibi Dong did like teasing children, or rather, she liked teasing innocent children because these children didn't have so many complicated thoughts or disgusting ideas in their minds. She wouldn't feel so disgusted when she was around them, and it was just a way to relax.
Ah Yin's mind is like that of a child; she's timid and can cry for a long time if she's even slightly frightened.
"Where is Qian Renxue?" Xuan Ming asked.
Ah Yin thought for a moment, "She didn't scare me like Bibi Dong did. She just wandered around every time she came, then stared blankly at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. She asked me when I was coming up, and I said I didn't know, and then she left silently."
Sometimes they even ask me about you.
"Inquire? Inquire about what?" Xuan Ming asked.
"I want to know what you've been doing here all these years, and how you ended up picking me up," Ah Yin said.
"What did you say?" Xuan Ming asked.
"To be honest," Ah Yin shrugged.
"You said it yourself, there's nothing you can't tell others, and you have nothing to hide."
Xuan Ming's eye twitched again. "I told you to ignore her, and you've revealed everything about me?"
"What secrets are you revealing?" Ah Yin asked suspiciously.
"I knew you'd been ruining yourself every now and then while you're here all these years."
