Chapter 435: The Effects of Dragon Blood, Explosive Experience Gain!



March 8th, 2025

By the window.

The gentle afternoon breeze blew, making people feel drowsy.

"Brother Jiang, do you know what Ye Fushishi saw when he went to Luoshu?" Bai Luoyu held a teapot, filling the cups of the two men with tea.

"What did he see?" Jiang Ning asked.

"A great demon, a true demon!" Bai Luoyu said.

"A great demon?" Jiang Ning's expression was filled with astonishment, and he immediately thought of the great demon, Bai Chi, which he had learned about from Longli Fish.

Could it be that one?

The thought flashed through his mind.

Previously, he had taken his relatives away from Luoshu County, also considering this possibility.

At that time, he learned from Longli Fish that the great demon, Bai Chi, had slaughtered several gatherings of demons in Luoshu Lake to improve its cultivation.

The gathering of small demons where Longli Fish was located at the bottom of the lake was destroyed by the hands of the great demon, Bai Chi.

Including the other demon gatherings he saw later, they were also obviously destroyed by the great demon, Bai Chi.

This great demon, Bai Chi, chose to slaughter living beings and devour flesh and blood, disregarding the consequences and the law of cause and effect, all for the sake of improving its cultivation.

It was highly likely that it would choose to attack the creatures along the coast.

His residence in Luoshu County was right next to the county, located in the most dangerous area.

His strength was not enough to defend against a great demon.

A great demon was a formidable opponent that only those above the Divine Human Master realm could challenge.

As these thoughts scattered in his mind, Jiang Ning turned to look at Bai Luoyu.

"What kind of great demon was it?" he asked.

"An ancient dragon species, Bai Chi!" Bai Luoyu replied.

It was indeed that one!

Jiang Ning's heart tightened.

Then he asked, "Did Ye Fushishi take action and deal with that great demon?"

Hearing this, Bai Luoyu slowly shook his head.

"No! Bai Chi is an ancient dragon species, and its strength is far more terrifying than that of ordinary great demons, by several times!"

Speaking of this, Bai Luoyu felt a sense of relief.

"Fortunately, when I went to investigate the situation by Luoshu Lake, I didn't encounter this great demon, Bai Chi. Otherwise, with the strength to drive away Ye Fushishi, I would have surely perished in the belly of the demon long ago."

"Is it that powerful?" Jiang Ning was slightly surprised.

According to his understanding, Ye Zhengqi had long entered the Divine Human Master realm.

In front of Ye Zhengqi, a beginner in the Divine Human Master realm like Xiao Qiushui was no match at all.

He never expected that even a veteran Divine Human Master like Ye Zhengqi couldn't defeat the great demon, Bai Chi.

At this moment.

Bai Luoyu sensed Jiang Ning's confusion and nodded slightly.

"It should indeed be very powerful. When I saw Ye Fushishi yesterday, he was clearly in a bad state! It seemed like he had suffered some injuries, and now he's recuperating in Lan Xinyuan. Brother Jiang, do you want to visit him with me?"

"Sure!" Upon hearing Bai Luoyu's suggestion, Jiang Ning nodded.

After a moment.

The two set off together, also bringing along some items.

Lan Xinyuan was a place in the eastern part of the city specifically for the wealthy to recuperate.

Filled with various colorful orchids, it was renowned for its environment.

When Jiang Ning and Bai Luoyu exited Lan Xinyuan, it was already the hour of the Rooster.

"Three days from now, it's your banquet, Brother Jiang. Are you prepared?" Bai Luoyu asked.

"What's there to prepare? I'll just receive gifts at that time!" Jiang Ning smiled.

"That's right!" Bai Luoyu also smiled in response.

Then he said, "People like us, why bother with all the rules and regulations? Strength is the foundation of our standing!"

Jiang Ning deeply agreed, nodding.

His current status was due to his exceptional strength.

If not for his outstanding strength, how could his background have brought him to where he was today?

Strength was the foundation of standing in the world.

In this era, where power was vested in strength, it ultimately returned to the individual.

Thinking of this, he felt that his strength was still lacking.

If he were strong enough.

Xiao Qiushui, this potential threat, could be eliminated with a single strike.

But at present, he lacked the confidence to do so.

Without confidence, he wasn't prepared to strike lightly.

If he were to take action, he would strive to finish it in one go.

Only then would he invite a counterattack.

After a moment.

At the fork in the road, the two parted ways, each heading towards their own homes.

"Young Master!" Lv Yi pushed open the main door and saw Jiang Ning, her face immediately lit up with joy.

Then she stepped aside to make way.

After Jiang Ning crossed the threshold and entered the front courtyard, Lv Yi quickly closed the mansion's main door.

"Young Master, did you have your meal outside?" Lv Yi followed behind Jiang Ning and asked.

"I ate!" Jiang Ning replied, "Prepare the bed for me, I'll take a bath and then I'll sleep!"

"Young Master, the bed has already been made, and the bedding was just sun-dried today!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded.

After several sleepless days of traveling outside.

Even in his current state, he felt a bit weary.

Now that he had returned and taken care of all the necessary matters, all that was left was to wait for the Patrol Feast in three days.

As for the official uniform and seal, Ye Zhengqi had just mentioned that they would be delivered to Dong Ling City by the day after tomorrow at the latest.

So, he didn't have to worry about that either.

Afterward...

Jiang Ning quickly took a bath and, wearing comfortable pajamas, climbed into bed.

As soon as he lay down, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.

The next day...

When the sun was high in the sky...

Creak—

The door slowly opened.

"Young Master, you're awake!" Lv Yi, who was pruning plants in the courtyard, heard the door open and turned to see Jiang Ning, stretching his limbs after opening the door.

Seeing Lv Yi in a green dress with her hair tied in twin buns, Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile faintly.

"You're up!"

Lv Yi stopped her work and walked towards the well, preparing to fetch water for Jiang Ning's morning routine.

"By the way, did anything happen while I was sleeping?"

"Nothing!" Lv Yi shook her head and added, "Last night, Xiao Doubao wanted to come and find you, saying that you haven't spent time with her in a long time!"

"Xiao Doubao?" Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

He couldn't help but chuckle.

"It has been some time since I last saw Xiao Doubao!"

"Young Master, I just went out and bought two skewers of candy-coated haws!" Lv Yi suddenly spoke up.

"You're so smart!" Jiang Ning praised her.

Hearing this, Lv Yi's eyes curved into a smile.

After finishing his morning routine...

Jiang Ning took the candy-coated haws that Lv Yi had bought for him and went to find Xiao Doubao.

With the candy-coated haws as a peace offering, Xiao Doubao, who had been pouting, immediately took a few bites, and their relationship was instantly mended.

"Kids are so easy to please!" Jiang Ning sighed to himself as he returned to his courtyard.

This reminded him of his past life when he had to appease his girlfriend when she was angry, which always gave him a headache.

He paused for a moment, lost in thought.

A fleeting memory flashed through his eyes, and he shook his head to dispel the distracting thoughts from his mind.

His gaze fell back onto his panel.

【Technique】: Goldenvolution Invencible (Perfection: 1033/10000)



I hope the limit break of Goldenvolution Invencible won't disappoint me.

The thought crossed his mind.

Then...

He took off his shirt, revealing his well-built muscles.

A thought flashed through his mind.

He raised his hand, and a drop of deep red blood appeared in his palm.

The blood in his hand seemed to solidify without dispersing, crystal clear and translucent.

Looking at the drop of blood in his palm, he suddenly recalled the words spoken by the mysterious being in the Heaven Dragon Hall.

Dragon's Blood!

His eyes lit up with realization.

"That mysterious being wouldn't lie to me!"

"And with their strength, they have no reason to deceive me!"

At this thought...

He placed two fingers of his right hand on his forehead, instantly activating the Heavenly Eye on his brow.

In an instant, a white vertical mark appeared on his forehead.

Through the Heavenly Eye, he observed the drop of Dragon's Blood for a moment.

A look of astonishment flashed across his eyes.

"Such strong activity!"

He could see that the blood in his hand had an incredibly high level of activity.

Most recently, Xiao said that in the 69th book, the main character would...

Previously, he had also observed that the stronger the vitality, the higher the activity.

And this drop of Dragon's Blood, just a single drop, through the observation of the Heavenly Eye, gave him a sense of incredibly high activity.

After a moment of contemplation...

He no longer hesitated.

He swallowed the drop of Dragon's Blood.

After just a short while...

His skin began to turn red, and his veins protruded, resembling winding earth dragons.

With each breath, his chest rose and fell noticeably, and hot air gushed from his nose.

He could feel that as the drop of Dragon's Blood entered his body, it began to release a terrifying energy.

I need to quickly consume the energy released by the Dragon's Blood!

The thought crossed his mind.

Then...

He performed the eighteenth move of Goldenvolution Invencible, the move that stimulated and consumed his body the most.

As his energy and blood were transported and tempered...

With rapid consumption, he instantly felt his body, which seemed about to explode, become much more comfortable.

As the Dragon's Blood was digested within him, releasing its terrifying energy, his energy and blood found an outlet.

Under the release of the energy contained within the Dragon's Blood...

Jiang Ning quickly felt the changes in his body.

His energy and blood rapidly strengthened, and his physical body continually enhanced.

His entire body, from the inside out, was improving.

At the same time, the prompt that appeared before him also indicated something extraordinary.

【Goldenvolution Invencible Experience +1】

【Goldenvolution Invencible Experience +1】

【Goldenvolution Invencible Experience +1】

The notifications appeared far more frequently than before, several times more, to be precise. He knew that this was also an effect brought about by the dragon blood.

Seizing the opportunity presented by this effect, he felt a surge of motivation.

Without stopping for a moment, he maintained the eighteenth movement of the Goldenvolution Invencible technique.

Despite the stinging pain caused by the tempering of his skin, he endured it with a sense of pain and joy.

Time passed, and by the afternoon, Jiang Ning felt that the effects of the drop of dragon blood had been thoroughly exhausted. The surging energy within him gradually subsided and returned to a state of tranquility.

After a brief moment, he exhaled deeply, and his tense body relaxed.

The next moment, he heard a splash! He jumped into the lake, causing the water to spray upwards.

The cold lake water soothed his body, instantly alleviating his fatigue.

As he quietly felt the nourishment of the lake water, Jiang Ning closed his eyes and remained still.

At this moment, he could sense that his body was extremely exhausted from the prolonged tempering of his skin, like a desert that had been parched for countless years.

Now, nourished by the lake water, it was as if a continuous drizzle had fallen upon the desert.

Although it couldn't relieve the dryness instantly, as time slowly passed, it would eventually be filled.

After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the graceful Longli fish swimming around him, a faint smile appeared on his face.

He reached out and stroked the smooth scales of the Longli fish.

"Master, your Qi Xi is so familiar!" As Jiang Ning caressed it, the Longli fish affectionately rubbed against him.

Then, it added, "It's like a mother's touch!"

Jiang Ning: "..."

Looking at the Longli fish swimming in the water, he was speechless.

At this moment, he could understand why the Longli fish was acting so strangely affectionate.

The Longli fish was a race that contained a trace of true dragon bloodline.

Considered an affiliated clan of the dragon clan, they possessed the potential to transform into dragons.

For this reason, it was now acting so unusually affectionate towards him.

Since he had just refined a drop of dragon blood, it was natural for him to emit a special aura.

A thought flashed through his mind.

He looked at his panel.

【Technique】: Goldenvolution Invencible (Perfection 6173/10000)



Seeing the change on the panel, Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed.

Such high efficiency!

In just one morning, the experience points for Goldenvolution Invencible had increased by over five thousand.

Moreover, he clenched his fist, channeled his power, and the water in his hand instantly exploded.

"My strength has also increased significantly!"

"My flesh has also become much stronger!!"

Feeling the changes in his body, he couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

At his current level of strength, every step forward was extremely difficult.

But just a single drop of dragon blood had brought about such noticeable changes.

Especially in terms of Qi Xi.

As his physical state gradually returned to its peak, he could feel the surging power of Qi Xi within him, overwhelming and mighty.

With a simple movement, he could unleash a force akin to the roar of mountains and the howl of the sea.

These various changes allowed him to witness the effects of dragon blood.

If it were the blood of a true dragon, it would undoubtedly be even more powerful!

No wonder Miwang had become so strong! Miwang must have made a different choice than him, entering the Hua Long Pool, becoming a dragon descendant, and obtaining a portion of the Heaven Dragon Hall's inheritance.

Jiang Ning understood this, but he didn't regret his decision.

Even after personally experiencing the effects of dragon blood, he still had no regrets.

Entering the Hua Long Pool and transforming into a dragon descendant was akin to choosing to become a servant of the dragon clan.

Perhaps many people would yearn for such a choice.

After all, according to records, the dragon clan was inherently noble.

Becoming a dragon descendant was an honor.

Moreover, in this age, there were no true dragons, at least not to his knowledge.

At most, there were only dragon species like the Bai Chi.

The concept of dragon descendants held no significance in this era.

However, he still wouldn't make that choice.

In his opinion, the path of martial arts was equally important to his aspirations.

To willingly lower oneself and settle for a lesser path was unacceptable.

Furthermore, for him, there was already a path to greatness laid out before him.

He glanced at his panel once more and closed it.

【Yuan Neng】: 450

His heart was filled with anticipation.

With the effects of dragon blood, he wondered how much his Yuan Neng points would increase.

Although dragon blood wasn't considered a natural treasure, it wasn't too far off either.

After all, according to records, the ancestral true dragon of the dragon clan was also akin to a natural treasure, born and nurtured by the heavens and earth, a true spirit of nature.

Various thoughts crossed his mind.

Once his body recovered to its peak state, he returned to the shore.
