Another Tendon Transformation Method
'According to Master's prophecy, Dongfang Ri is the one among billions who can break through the limitations! My mission is to find Dongfang Ri and deliver the Origin Page that Master entrusted to me to him, so that he can cultivate various methods! Unfortunately, the world is vast, there are no clues, and I don't even know what kind of person he is. What if I entrust the wrong person? Wouldn't that lead to disaster?'
Rather than a prodigious talent, she preferred Dongfang Ri to be a martial artist who was unyielding and had his own principles!
Pulling herself back to reality, Qin Rushuang added, "Of course, among the many inheritances in the Central Continent, the Scarlet Flame Sect Sect's cultivation technique can only be considered above average, not top-tier. If you can truly comprehend it, it won't be too bad."
Dongfang Yueming nodded, a plan forming in his mind: 'I see. It seems that while the Crimson Flame Fist Technique is powerful, it also has limitations. In that case, I'll save my points for later when I need them or have a better option. For me, Point Allocation is just a matter of a moment.'
'The most important thing right now is to improve my cultivation level. I obtained this [Furious Tiger Tendon Transformation Method] from Xi Lang, so its grade should be quite high, but whether it can help me reach the Ultimate Perfection of the Tendon Transformation Realm is still unknown. It seems I'll need to acquire another new Tendon Transformation Technique to stack its effects for a more reliable outcome.'
Dongfang Yueming was making plans in his mind.
Meanwhile, deep within the Earth Spirit Sect, in a quiet room, a young man dressed in the attire of a core disciple of the Earth Spirit Sect was listening to a report from his subordinate.
"Senior brother, the three teams from Great Xia, Great Yan, and Snow Dynasty who participated in the Battle of the Python Gate have all arrived today and gone to Crimson Flame Stele Square."
Upon hearing this, the young man addressed as "Senior Brother" slowly opened his eyes, revealing a strange smile. His aura had clearly reached the Blood Replacement Realm, and at the Perfection first level, "Qi and Blood Like Mercury"! "Heh, it's finally here... I've been waiting for this day for so long..."
Time passed quietly, and the commotion in Crimson Flame Stele gradually subsided.
After their meditation session, most people left with varying degrees of disappointment. Wang Xijing remained calm, revealing neither joy nor anger. Xi Feng, on the other hand, looked gloomy, clearly having gained nothing.
Only Wang Bufan seemed to have vaguely grasped something, his eyes filled with a mixture of contemplation and excitement.
The atmosphere was somewhat somber on the way back to the inn.
Dongfang Yueming suddenly spoke up and suggested, "Everyone, since we've all come to participate in the Battle of the Python Gate and share the same goal, why don't we... bring out our respective Tendon Transformation techniques and exchange and verify them with each other? Perhaps we can learn from each other's strengths, which will benefit our own cultivation."
Upon hearing this, Wang Bufan's eyes lit up, and his heart skipped a beat: 'This is a good idea! If only I could learn the genius techniques of other dynasties...' But then he thought again and his spirits dampened. No, the [Savage Elephant Tendon Transformation Art] I cultivate is a family secret, strictly forbidden to be leaked. If it were discovered...'
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi curled his lips into an undisguised contempt, too lazy to even say a word, and simply turned and left.
Wang Xijing and Zhao Jin merely glanced at Dongfang Yueming before silently leaving.
Xi Feng let out a sneer, mocking, "Brother Dongfang, you're really delusional! Martial arts techniques are the foundation of a martial artist's existence; how can they be easily revealed? My Xi Family's secret [Furious Tiger Tendon Transformation Method]—why would I share it with outsiders?" With that, he swept away with a sense of superiority, thinking to himself, 'Want to learn my techniques? Dream on!'
Yue Tao sighed, patted Dongfang Yueming on the shoulder, and advised, "Brother Dongfang, matters of cultivation techniques are indeed difficult to force. Let's just forget about it." After saying that, he shook his head and left.
The female student from the Snow Dynasty who had previously shown considerable interest in Dongfang Yueming Dongfang Yueming slightly as she looked at his somewhat isolated figure. She felt that this person had extraordinary potential and perhaps it was worthwhile to forge a good relationship with him.
But when she met her team leader's cold gaze, she felt a chill and ultimately suppressed the urge to speak to him, silently leaving with the group.
In the blink of an eye, only Dongfang Yueming and Shi Qing remained on the spot.
Dongfang Yueming shrugged helplessly, thinking to himself, 'It seems this method won't work; I'll have to think of another way.'
Just then, Shi Qing's clear voice rang out. "Um... Dongfang Yueming, I do have a family Tendon Transformation Fa here, which you might be able to use for reference. However, it might... not be particularly good."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yueming's eyes flashed with surprise, and she quickly said, "Thank you so much, Senior Shi! I am grateful no matter what!"
Shi Qing blushed slightly, gently moved to Dongfang Yueming's side, leaned close to his ear, and whispered an obscure incantation to him. The girl's warm breath brushed against his ear, bringing a faint fragrance, and the atmosphere became somewhat romantic.
Dongfang Yueming focused intently on memorizing the instructions, and once Shi Qing finished teaching, he immediately went to the system panel to check them.

[Points:360]
'There are more and more techniques on the panel. It would be great if they could be integrated... Hmm? [Nine Oxen Tendon Transformation Method], only 20 points are needed to Entry?'
Dongfang Yueming was slightly startled. This energy consumption... it's on par with the [Furious Tiger Tendon Transformation Method]! Little Stone wasn't sure?
He suppressed his doubts and sincerely thanked Shi Qing again.
Shi Qing smiled, a sly glint in her eyes, waved her hand, and turned to leave gracefully.
"Great! "Dongfang Yueming thought to herself, feeling quite pleased as she watched Shi Qing's retreating figure.
Night fell silently in a secluded corner of the city. A dark figure appeared like a ghost, approaching a lone martial artist in the Flesh Refining Realm without a sound. There was no fierce fighting, only a muffled thud, and the martial artist collapsed to the ground.
The shadowy figure slowly crouched down and pulled out a piece of iron that shimmered with a ghostly light from his robes. This piece of iron was different in shape from the one Gao Hu had obtained, but its material and the aura it emitted were extremely similar, as if they were different fragments of the same artifact!
The metal sheet adhered to the corpse, and a familiar suction force emerged, causing the corpse to quickly shrivel up. A moment later, a faint force returned to the shadowy figure.
The shadowy figure, sensing the barely increasing power within his body, frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction and cruelty flashing in his eyes: 'Tsk, the feedback is too little... This amount of energy is simply insufficient for me to break through to the second Perfection of the Blood Replacement Realm! Ordinary materials are useless now; I must find those genius martial artists with solid foundations and vigorous blood and qi. Their blood and potential are the finest nourishment...'
