Chapter 312: Devouring the Fire Origin

Inside the cave, Yang Ba sat on a rock, comprehending the mysteries of the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Sutra. This physical cultivation method also contained a secret technique: the sonic martial art of the dragon-elephant's roar, which required mastering the Zen sound within the secret art.

Yang Ba, like a Buddha, manifested a sacred image. The killing aura he had accumulated over the years showed signs of dissipating under the mysterious Zen sounds, leaving him somewhat puzzled, but his interest in Buddhism grew.

According to what Yang Xiao knew, those ancient people often converted disciples with terrifying talent, accumulating many enemies. Later, along with a mysterious sect, they moved their entire school to the Tianyang Continent, but he did not know the specific outcome.

Inside the Ancestral Dragon Ring, Yang Tian sat cross-legged on the ground, his gaze falling on the flame on his finger. He couldn't help but shrink his neck, sensing that the fire within was extremely terrifying.

"Although this wisp of fire origin is formidable, your physical body is now almost ready. Take this opportunity to unleash the medicinal power of the Rebirth Pill, and you should be able to break through to the True Dragon stage!"

Yang Xiao murmured. The medicinal power of that dragon pill was very potent, and it was the essence of a seventh-grade pill, containing powerful life force. Refining it would bring great benefits.

"Is it the same method as usual when devouring fire spirits?" At this moment, Yang Tian's body trembled slightly, catching the implication, and he couldn't help asking.

"How can the fire origin be compared to other fire spirits? This kind of flame chooses its master on its own; you need to tame it." Hearing this, Yang Xiao rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile.

"But back then, when the thunder origin turned into a spark, there was no such procedure." Yang Tian's throat moved slightly as he spoke.

"The thunder origin was a legacy from a strong practitioner, but this wisp of origin is ownerless and needs to be devoured." Waving his hand, Yang Xiao said, "Stop wasting words, get started now."

After a moment of silence, Yang Tian nodded. His gaze swept over the flickering spark, and he directly stuffed that wisp of flame into his mouth—he swallowed the fire origin.

As the spark descended into his body, Yang Tian's body suddenly stiffened, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. The fire origin took root, burning wildly inside him.

Yang Tian couldn't help shrinking his neck. His entire body turned bright red, flames spouting from his mouth and nose, as if he were being roasted over a blazing fire, his whole being cooked through.

This wisp of fire origin gave rise to strange phenomena: flames bloomed from within his body, his pores caught fire, and tongues of fire sprayed from his entire form.

"Seal your body and endure the forging; you will gain benefits." Seeing this, Yang Xiao smiled slightly. The fire origin was extremely domineering, and such heavenly treasures were hard to tame.

Hearing this, Yang Tian closed his eyes. His pores contracted, and terrifying blood energy surged and rolled within his body, charging like a runaway wild horse, galloping endlessly.

Yang Tian was immersed in blazing flames. Unlike before, the fire origin was too powerful to refine, not a flame he could control.

His flesh was cracking, revealing blood and muscle. Given Yang Tian's current physique, the power of the fire origin was evidently immense.

This wisp of flame was not born naturally; unlike the thunder origin, it was a sliver of flame split from the Fire Ancestor, extremely terrifying.

Under the constant burning, Yang Tian sensed a formidable vital energy flowing within his flesh, moving through his muscles.

"Finally showing up." At this moment, Yang Tian also detected that terrifying vital energy. His mind surged into his body, observing the changes in his flesh.

"Come out!" Yang Tian's soul condensed into a long blade, cutting across his interior and severing that formidable life force.

Boom! His body shook violently. The essence of the Rebirth Pill was severed, and the terrifying vital energy spewed out like a fountain of essence, surging forth and sweeping through Yang Tian's body.

Waves of coolness flowed into his muscles. A smile rose on Yang Tian's face, feeling as if he had gone from hell to heaven, his whole body comfortable and relaxed.

Roar! At this moment, Yang Tian transformed into a flood dragon, roaring mightily, emitting a fearsome cry. It coiled around Yang Tian, spewing vigorous blood energy, majestic and imposing.

Yang Tian held his breath and concentrated, scanning his body. The fire origin remained terrifying, wreaking havoc inside him. But wisps of surging vital blood emerged, repairing and strengthening his physique.

Then, he clearly sensed that the refinement of that surging vital blood accelerated. Powerful life force coursed through his body, and the split flesh gradually grew new muscles.

"Wow, the medicinal power contained in a seventh-grade pill is terrifying. The part of the Rebirth Pill I absorbed was only the outer portion; the greatest essence has been dormant in my body all along."

Yang Tian clicked his tongue in amazement. Now, with the help of the fire origin, he captured this medicinal power and refined it with all his might. His body was transforming, on the verge of stepping into the second step of Dragon Transformation.

Yang Tian's body was more crystalline and translucent than before, emitting rosy clouds. His muscles exuded a faint fragrance, and his beating heart grew stronger.

Leveraging this vast vital energy, the blood-energy flood dragon around Yang Tian was transforming. Its two horns grew rapidly, and dragon claws emerged under its belly—a terrifying speed.

The blood energy he emitted grew more fearsome, his life force overwhelming. His energy sea boiled, filled with battle qi, merging with this immense vital energy. He was about to break through a bottleneck.

"I wonder what stage of rebirth I'm at now." Yang Tian murmured. Since experiencing the Chaos Tribulation last time, he hadn't had time to cultivate quietly. Now, with this vast vital energy, he reached the level of breakthrough.

"Break!" Yang Tian roared. The flood dragon bellowed, and his 108 acupoints shook, shooting out strands of terrifying rosy light. His blood energy churned, and the river of blood expanded.

Immersed in blazing flames, Yang Tian's cultivation broke through but did not stop. That vital energy was immense; he had ultimately underestimated the seventh-grade pill.

Roar! At this moment, the flood dragon roared, swallowing terrifying vital energy, shaking the eight desolates. Its blood energy surged violently, piercing heaven and earth. It leaped into the void, flying through the air, its body scattering rosy light, and transformed into a true dragon!

Yang Tian was neither joyful nor sorrowful. His entire body glowed, emitting crystalline divine radiance. Vital energy surged within, his bones and viscera pulsed, resonating with his heart, as if composing a clanging melody.

"Heh, it seems the gains are considerable. The physical phenomenon has advanced further, and he has transformed into a true dragon!" Seeing this, Yang Xiao nodded slightly. This added to his planned schedule.

"The Fallen Demon Land holds treasures left by our ancestors, which can soon be retrieved." At this moment, Yang Xiao smiled. He had once received guidance from the old clan leader to retrieve the treasures in the Fallen Demon Land, which included a clan-guarding treasure of the Yang family!

But entering that place required Yang Tian's cultivation to increase a bit more; it was a dangerous area.

At this moment, Yang Tian's body merged into the true dragon. The energy within his body was terrifying, surging like monstrous waves, his entire form vibrating, emitting clanging sounds.

"It's time to fuse the dan fire." At this moment, Yang Tian opened his eyes, murmured, and a blazing light flashed in his gaze.
