For Jiang Si, the path of transforming into Complete Witch using the Miracle Seed is an inevitable one.
He never thought he had too much power, no matter what kind it was.
As Nascent Soul, Black Dragon has reached his peak. It's likely that his pre-transformation realm will remain at the level he reached after breaking through to the Full Blossom of Great Perfection [omitted].
Even if one were to Complete Witch Transformation Mystic Art and unleash their Nascent Soul true form, their innate deficiency would prevent them from using their Magic Sense. No matter how much demonic power they accumulated, they would only be at the Early Full Blossom, perhaps a few dozen or a hundred more cycles. They would not be able to break through to the ultimate realm, possessing a body full of demonic power but unable to ascend in rank.
It might be a bit absolute, but Jiang Si believes her understanding of Full Blossom is quite accurate.
While seemingly similar to Bai Mei's situation, the two are fundamentally different— Bai Mei is a proper undergraduate-to-graduate sword cultivator who has been accumulating magic power and comprehending sword intent under extreme conditions, unlike the Black Dragon, a foolish Calamity Beast that even elementary school students would find unacceptable to teach...
However, we shouldn't be too demanding of it, after all, it's just an amateur Nascent Soul.
Going forward, the transformation of the Calamity Dragon will become increasingly useless. In the end, the Calamity Dragon only has purely physical enhancements such as strength, speed, and defense. With its physical body constantly strengthened by magic, it is only a matter of time before it reaches or even surpasses the strength of the Calamity Dragon.
As for the path of learning to place three Golden Core into one's body and cultivate several Nascent Soul...
Are you kidding me? His body isn't a dumping ground for all sorts of junk!
A few stinking Heretical Nascent Soul, are they trying to beg for food in his body?
Don't even think about it, just kill them.
Although Jiang Si will eventually take the path of Full Bloom, she will not rush into Full Bloom without absolute certainty.
At times like these, he would yearn for the Return to Truth, for the Hundred Lifetimes Book, for the Spring Autumn Cicada.
While ultimately one must rely on oneself, having more external support means having more options, so who would complain about having too many external support options?
If he had a second chance, he would definitely try it Full Bloom first to see what the specific situation would be like.
As for Xilan, it would be a good thing to let her return to the Witch Association gather more information.
Keeping it locked up would be a waste; it would be a disservice to Xilan's efforts not to make full use of her intelligence network.
When they led Xilan out, the journey was smooth and unimpeded.
With Bingtang around, her icy gaze was sharp, monitoring the relevant areas and personnel of the Azure Cloud Sect in Beihai 24 hours a day.
Of course, most of the time she just makes a record, but she will definitely keep a close eye on her whereabouts.
Naturally, there won't be any scenarios like inner disciples blocking the road because they don't recognize you.
The fact that they could move through as if the land were empty left Xilan in awe. When they emerged, she exclaimed with admiration, "Has Lord Si Motu wiped out the Azure Cloud Sect in one fell swoop?!"
For a moment, Jiang Si was somewhat impressed by Xilan's trust.
Having witnessed the strength of two true disciples firsthand, and even knowing Shion's strength, he could still confidently utter those words.
Her trust in Si Motu clearly went beyond what she could see.
Commonly known as a brainless fan.
"No, it's just to prevent them from finding us."
" Si Motu is truly kind-hearted; he actually spared the lives of those little bitches!"
"No, even I would likely suffer a crushing defeat if faced with an attack from the Azure Cloud Sect."
Without transforming, he only has a physical body and the form of Calamity Dragon, let alone the siege of the Azure Cloud Sect.
There's enough Bingtang for one person to drink a whole pot.
Including Bai Mei, that's a mix of food and drink.
Not to mention that Blue Flower also had Shion's Magic Puppet, which directly fed herself into becoming a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
"So that means a resounding victory, right? Si Motu is too modest. These little brats are no match for you. I know you don't want to reveal your true strength..."
I said I suffered a crushing defeat, are you deaf?
Jiang Si it for a moment, but ultimately didn't say it.
Xilan is still useful.
After escorting the other party out of Beihai, Jiang Si casually tossed over a gun; it was made by Ruoyun, and the quality was quite good.
Upon receiving the gun, Xilan was taken aback. After inspecting it, she discovered it was a real gun and became excited. Then, remembering something, she stammered, "I can't afford the bullets..."
Jiang Si threw over two more large bags of bullets.
Xilan bowed deeply, "Father!"
As she left, Xilan kept turning back every three steps.
She was even more clingy than Keke, with tears in her eyes, looking like she was facing a life-or-death separation.
" Si Motu, please be careful!"
"Remember to keep my presence in Beihai a secret, lest members of the Witch Association come looking for trouble."
"Yes!" After a pause, Xilan whispered, "Then, can we say that Lord Si Motu is still To Live?"
"Certainly."
Jiang Si waved her hand, "Anyone who dares to bully you can use my name to retaliate! You're allowed to use my authority to do whatever you want! My Si Motu, will not tolerate being bullied!"
"Yes!"
After making those promises, Xilan happily ran off.
That silhouette looked exactly like a little pig basking in the spring sunshine.
As far as Jiang Si was concerned, if anyone dared to provoke Xilan, she would have a legitimate reason to kill the members of the Witch Association.
It can also strengthen Xilan's trust.
That kills two birds with one stone!
My wisdom is indeed terrifying.
If things continue like this, it won't be good if we become useless people who rely on intelligence.
You still need to cultivate properly; these are all external things, crooked paths and evil ways!
He also had Bingtang escort Xilan to prevent her from being intercepted by the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau on the way.
Xilan is so bad that even the magical girls from the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau can easily capture him.
Jiang Si used to doubt the purpose of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, but after visiting the Witch Association, she no longer had that doubt.
The excellent matchmaking mechanism makes the existence of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau as natural as breathing.
Instead of improving yourself, find an equally matched opponent.
The debate over downward revisions has always been like this.
After seeing Xilan off, Jiang Si went to the school first.
He had no idea how much time had passed since he last entered the school, but when he walked in, almost everyone still recognized him.
At first, Jiang Si thought they had good memories.
"Isn't that the son-in-law of the Azure Cloud Sect...?"
"How enviable! I wonder if Bai San's ' The Son-in-Law Demon ' will finish first, or if the Azure Cloud Sect's son-in-law and Shion will get married first."
"Forget it, expecting a story to be finished by a mega-eunuch is like believing Bai San is a beautiful girl..."
"He's practically a protagonist from an online novel."
"No, no, your purity is too low. There's no such thing as a son-in-law from the Azure Cloud Sect. It's all just a fantasy born from being violently coerced into selling hooks. The Azure Cloud Sect is full of magical girls, so naturally they need a man in the public eye. What son-in-law? He's just a top-notch servant..."
"Shh! Are you out of your mind?! He dared to kill that bunch of thugs, and nobody's bothered him."
" Teacher Zhang is amazing! She dared to yell at Jiang Si back then..."
"Why don't you let him try again now?"
He became a big celebrity.
However, not many people dared to come up and talk to them.
It's not just because of her connection to the leader of the Azure Cloud Sect's magical girl group; the fact that Jiang Si killed the Limp has become an urban legend and a campus ghost story.
Who would dare mess with a guy who kills without blinking an eye and can get away with it?
We're not some idiotic, background villain from Bai San's famous online novel, "The Return of the Maggot King: The Mad Maggot God of War."
Even the return of a legendary soldier is nothing special.
Although there was much discussion, some curious students also gathered around to watch.
"Is he really Shion's boyfriend, the leader of the Azure Cloud Sect? Won't their child be shorter than Li Yi from the next class?"
"How dare you speak so presumptuously about the bloodline of the Great Emperor?"
"Try to watch less of Bai Family's Third Sister..."
But in reality, no one dared to get close.
It was during break time, and the hallway was usually crowded, but when Jiang Si walked by, everyone consciously made way for him.
They walked easily to the principal's office.
The principal is quite capable; he said he arranged a special classroom for him, so he wouldn't have to wait patiently every day like the other students for the college entrance exam.
The exam can be completed in one day, without wasting too much time.
It was Teacher Zhang who came to deliver the exam admission ticket along the way.
Compared to before, Teacher Zhang looks much more normal and is not as gloomy as before.
With a big smile and a cautious tone, he called out "Brother Si" to cheer him on for the college entrance examination. He not only brought him his college entrance examination certificate, but also some notes he had made, many of which contained his predictions for this year's math questions.
Jiang Si wasted no time; she took her exam admission ticket and left the school.
With only a week left until the college entrance exam, and having not studied much lately, he plans to ask Bingtang Tang for some past exam papers to practice with.
Jiang Si disdained to use any despicable means in this regard.
Since I promised that couple that I would get into a good university as long as it didn't interfere with my exercise, I decided to do so.
There's no reason to break a promise; there's no need for any tricks or unorthodox methods. Just rely on your own strength to crush them squarely.
If he needs to rely on the methods of the immortal sects to even survive another lifetime, just to be able to compare with these mortals, then all those years of cultivating immortality have been for nothing?
After leaving the school, Jiang Si headed straight for the outskirts of the city.
We found a secluded spot.
Xilan didn't have many potions; in fact, she couldn't afford to waste too many—only two bottles in total.
The minimum dosage required for one transformation is ten milliliters. One bottle contains approximately two hundred milliliters, so if used sparingly, it can last for many uses.
Jiang Si didn't use her own seed to transform at first, but instead used the white Miracle Seed she obtained from the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
That Miracle Seed that told him not to Full Bloom.
He took out a syringe, injected ten milliliters of medicine, and placed the Miracle Seed between his eyebrows.
The Filthy Magic Power mixed with flesh and blood boiled.
He could clearly feel the Miracle Seed constantly producing magic, and that pure magic, when it passed through the flesh and blood filled with the potion, was assimilated into polluted magic.
--Perhaps it can't be called polluting magic, because it doesn't have such strong negative emotions; it's more like the nature of pure magic has been transformed into something like Remnants.
These Remnants magical remnants do not repel the Filthy Magic Power Filthy Magic Power; instead, they quickly merge into them.
However, Jiang Si quickly realized the problem.
That is, the negative emotions of the Filthy Magic Power are being constantly reduced, perhaps because the assimilation is not deep enough, or perhaps the dosage of the potion is too small.
This potion assimilates pure magic to enhance Filthy Magic Power, but the operation of Filthy Magic Power itself is not much different from when transforming into a magical girl.
However, as the negative emotions from the Filthy Magic Power fade, the transformation into Complete Witch becomes increasingly difficult.
Finally, Jiang Si was completely covered in the demonic armor.
The medication has stopped working.
Ten milliliters was indeed not enough, but increasing the dosage further would be too wasteful.
We'll talk about it once Xilan gets more potions and sends them over. For now, we just need to test if we can transform.
Since we've already succeeded, there's no need to waste any more medicine.
Jiang Si reached out and looked at the armor on her body, which was covered in some Filthy Magic Power Filthy Magic Power that had turned grayish-white.
The overall magical outfit is the same as Shion's, except that it has neither purple nor gold.
All that remained was her gray-white dress. When she used her magic to create a mirror of Bingtang, one could see that even her pupils and hair had turned gray-white.
A grayish-white Shion.
No matter what seed or power is used to transform, the appearance will not change.
In Jiang Si's view, the magical girl form is the Dharma body, which is the [body] among the [six natures]. It is an indispensable foundation for cultivation in this world, and it is nothing more than what power is used to transform into this form.
However, it's grayish-white...
The feeling of weakness in magical power caused by insufficient potion was also something I hadn't experienced in a long time. I felt so weak, only about the strength of Early New Sprout at the eighth level.
In this state, even Coco Keke probably bully her.
The magical girl I encountered near the sea in Anyang City who tried to stop my return seemed to be gray and white.
There are also beings that attacked me within the spatial turbulence.
It also seems to be a grayish-white magic.
This kind of ash-like Remnants seems to have appeared in the power of the Mirror World as well.
This reminds me of the various characters in the Infinity novels I've read, who all seem to like using the ashes as their home base...
This thing should be another kind of power, but Jiang Si found that it wasn't very useful.
It's not very useful when you're transformed into a witch.
That's about it.
After reverting to her original form, Jiang Si felt the power in her body again, realizing that it had actually been weakened since the transformation.
My physical body has already reached the Full Blossom stage, and even without relying on magic, it is [half-step into the ninth level... with a slight peak of perfection in between], but after the transformation, it is only New Sprout.
That's a complete joke.
Unless you want to challenge yourself by sealing yourself in a new world, there's really no need to transform into a witch.
It feels like you'd have to use the whole bottle to get the same enhancement effect as the Full Blossom Seed.
However, as one of the options in combat, needing to use healing items is already quite cumbersome.
We need to find a way to optimize it.
His first thought was actually about Black Dragon. If there was anything that could help him with his medicine anytime without fear of rebellion, then Black Dragon was the most trustworthy.
But whether reviving it is beneficial or detrimental is hard to say.
While still pondering whether it was worth it or not, he bumped into two girls coming from the opposite direction.
"Elder brother!"
I looked up and saw Keke brightly, waving her hand as she ran over and hugged me tightly.
Just as clingy as when I was a child.
Pressing her forehead and pushing her away, Jiang Si glanced at the girl behind her. "Has your job resumed?"
" Yiyi got it done for me!" Keke immediately turned back and grabbed her friend, " Yiyi was really worried about you because you'd been missing for so long, so she insisted on coming to see you today."
Although Li Yi blushed slightly, she still looked up and blinked as she observed Jiang Si.
Jiang Si nodded. "Let's go back now that we've seen it."
"Hey!" Keke immediately grabbed her older brother, "Don't be like this! They went to all this trouble to come all this way, brother, you're making them so sad!"
Li Yi clutched her small bag nervously—she had actually changed her clothes specifically for the day, because choosing clothes was not easy for someone so petite.
This time, she changed into a light pink turtleneck top and skirt, hoping not to be mistaken for a child while still showing her cute side— Keke said that she has an advantage in being cute, so it would be better to show this side more.
Although Li Yi had always tried her best to avoid being seen as a cute little girl, she tried a different style this time... but it doesn't seem to have worked very well.
Jiang Si didn't look at her much, and seemed a little disappointed.
" Yiyi is planning to buy some clothes today, but she can't decide what to do. Why don't you go with her?"
"Are we that close?"
Li Yi felt a little hurt.
"Oh, we'll get to know each other after just one shopping trip."
Keke to deny this hurt her even more...
"Can't you go with her?"
"I still need to prepare for Ms. Shion's special training this afternoon!"
Why does it feel like I'm being rejected by both sides?
Keke grabbed his hand and shook it like she did when she was a child, "Please, brother, just this once, okay?"
Ugh, why is it a conversation between a brother and sister? It feels like I've been stabbed in the back several times...
Li Yi clutched her bleeding heart, feeling as if she were about to die.
I want to go home...
Oh, she has nowhere to go back to; she probably wants to go back to the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
It doesn't matter if I don't buy clothes or anything like that.
While I was lost in thought, Jiang Si actually nodded and agreed, "Okay, one hour."
I really do need to buy clothes!
Li Yi immediately felt that the slight injury she had just suffered was nothing more than a minor inconvenience.
Keke immediately pushed Jiang Si forward, then waved gently, "Be careful on the road. There have been more Calamity Beast appearing lately. Let me know immediately if you encounter any danger."
"Um."
As Li Yi and Jiang Si left, she turned back and glanced at Keke, who was hiding in the shadows.
For some reason, she sensed a hint of sadness in Keke's smile...
Next time, let's bring Keke along.
She thought this to herself, then glanced at Jiang Si.
The other person also looked over, and Li Yi felt a little embarrassed when Jiang Si spoke up:
"Start the timer now."
"Let's at least talk about it on the street!"
Jiang Si's presence felt like a death knell, urging Li Yi to run away, even though she wasn't there to accompany her shopping.
Everything is about efficiency; no one is allowed to stay in one place for more than ten minutes.
After changing her clothes, according to the comic book plot, she should have awkwardly asked him if it looked good and if he wanted her to change into something else.
But Jiang Si would only impatiently ask her if she had changed yet.
When she said she was done changing, Jiang Si would pull her out as soon as she opened the door and scrutinize her, giving her no chance to be shy.
Then give her a rating and ask if she wants to try something else; if so, immediately give her two more items.
Don't just pull her out, then ask the waiter for the bill.
She wasn't given any chance to hesitate at all.
To the point that Li Yi eventually became somewhat numb, feeling that there was nothing to be ashamed of about changing clothes in front of Jiang Si.
He wouldn't even glance at it anyway...
Li Yi bought two or three sets of clothes that Jiang Si rated highly.
After buying the clothes, I even had twenty minutes to spare.
This is quite rare for Li Yi. In the past, when she went out to buy clothes with her sister, it would take more than an hour to buy just one piece of clothing.
It's quite normal to spend two or three hours on the street and not buy a single piece of clothing...
After all, the main purpose of this trip is to have fun.
I felt a pang of sadness; the opportunity Keke had created for me was about to be wasted.
She couldn't be tough in front of Jiang Si; the young man in front of her was just too much like an elder.
When her requests were denied, she felt a sense of helplessness, as if she had been rejected by an elder.
It gave Li Yi the feeling of being led by her father—even though her father had never actually raised her like that.
Keke once told her that when they were little, Jiang Si was more like a father than a brother.
Now, when they are alone together, Li Yi feels this even more deeply.
She has strong decision-making abilities, tends to be domineering, and rarely smiles, but I still occasionally try to understand her thoughts...
If you truly live in a normal family and have a normal father, then that's about it, right?
Li Yi thought to herself.
Oh no, Keke clearly trying to create an opportunity for herself to go on a date with Jiang Si and get to know her better.
As a result, she became somewhat immersed in the feeling of being cared for by her father...
Li Yi patted her cheeks, trying to calm herself down.
First, I need to figure out what Jiang Si thinks of me...
"Want to go to the ice cream shop and rest for a while?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Si spoke first, nodding repeatedly, "Okay, Lao..."
Jiang Si turned and glanced at Li Yi: "Old?"
"Senior!"
That was dangerous! I almost blurted out the word "Dad."
What are you thinking, Li Yi!
If I say it out loud, then it's completely hopeless...
But if that's the case, what exactly are my feelings for Jiang Si?
Is it a projection of longing for one's father?
At first, it was just a vague liking. He noticed me because I always stood out from the crowd at school. Later, I found out he was very capable and special, and since he was Keke's brother, I gradually started to care about him.
Then, upon learning of his relationship with Shion, the bittersweet feeling welled up inside her, and her sister's encouragement to write a love letter became increasingly blurred...
I've also fantasized about whether Jiang Si might like me.
If it weren't for my sister's antics back then, I might not have fallen into this strange emotional state.
But since her sister has already left, let's not blame her...
Lost in thought, I sat down in the ice cream shop and saw that Jiang Si had bought a couple's set meal.
The pupils dilated instantly.
"Huh? A couple's set meal? Isn't that a bit too fast?"
"Cheap."
"Oh."
Idiot, what are you expecting?!
Li Yi felt she needed to calm down, otherwise she didn't know what other nonsense she might say.
I took a big gulp of the cold drink, and the chill went straight to my head.
Even headaches.
She clutched her head and slumped onto the table.
"Drink slowly, no one's going to take it from you."
How embarrassing...
Li Yi didn't want to look up anymore; she really wanted to slam her head against the table and knock herself unconscious.
After a long while, he lay on the table, turning his head to the side.
Looking at the bustling street outside the glass, Li Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked softly, " Jiang Si, why did you agree to go shopping with me?"
"Because Keke has been really annoying at home lately." Jiang Si for a moment, "Let's avoid her."
Okay, I knew it.
Keke just wants to spend more time with you; she doesn't dislike you...
"I know." Jiang Si glanced at the time; there were still ten minutes left. She could transform into Shion and give Keke special training, saving a lot of trouble. "That's precisely why it's so annoying."
"Haha." Li Yi sighed and looked up. "Oh well, anyway, this is proof that we have a good relationship."
It's better than thinking you have a good relationship with your sister when you actually know nothing about her.
"Of course, that's how family is."
Jiang Si said calmly, "It's annoying, but I can't leave."
Li Yi felt a pang of envy.
"Ah, if only I were your sister..."
I don't want to completely deny my sister's existence.
From childhood to adulthood, my older sister's care for me was genuine.
So, halfway through her speech, Li Yi interrupted herself.
If it weren't for her older sister, she might not even have lived to see the point where her sister hated her.
Li Yi did not hate the older sister who had contaminated her seed.
She was simply filled with regret and sadness.
"It would be a good thing to be your sister." So Li Yi put it another way.
But then I remembered what Keke had said before, that she envied my relationship with my sister.
Now the tables have turned, and I feel a mix of emotions.
" Jiang Si, what do you think of me...?"
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Jiang Si suddenly stand up.
Before Li Yi could react, Jiang Si grabbed her by the back of her collar, yanked her up, and threw her out!
A thick tail instantly smashed the spot where Li Yi had just been sitting!
Screams erupted from the street, the screech of cars screeching to a halt filled the air, and people began to scatter and flee!
When Li Yi the ground, there were scattered shards of glass all around, and tables, chairs, and doorposts had collapsed, leaving a mess. She looked around, feeling a little dizzy, and saw people running out of the shop.
Outside the window, a ferocious crocodile was roaring in their direction.
Quickly sending out an emergency distress signal, Li Yi rolled over to avoid the glass shards flying from the crocodile's charge. While rolling, she immediately pulled out her pistol, aimed it at the crocodile's head, and pulled the trigger.
It only caused a few sparks to fly on the crocodile's body.
"Roar!"
The roaring, Calamity Beast twisted its massive body and charged in, heading straight for her.
Li Yi gritted her teeth, trying to create some distance, but the Calamity Beast suddenly stomped the ground, making it impossible for her to stand!
While holding onto the counter next to him, he fired wildly until the gun was empty, and he kept pulling the trigger.
Oh no, I can't escape...
Just as the crocodile opened its massive jaws and its sharp teeth were about to bite her, Li Yi felt a moment of worry.
Is Jiang Si in danger? She should be far away by now, right?
I hope nothing bad happens, otherwise even if I die, I won't know how to face Keke...
boom!
A tremendous impact brought a terrifying wind pressure from ahead, and Li Yi was blown away, falling inside the counter.
The petite girl struggled to her feet to look.
The boy stepped on the crocodile's jaw with one foot and grabbed its upper jaw with the other, holding the Calamity Beast's massive jaws shut.
The crocodile Calamity Beast's enormous body writhed, but the boy, small as a nail, pinned it down in front of him.
Difficult to move.
Jiang Si turned her head to look at her, her expression cold.
Why not transform?
