early morning.

The sun is rising.

The light of Hexi shines everywhere in the courtyard.

A pale white python jumped out of the pool, about eight feet long and as thick as a human arm.

The rays of the rising sun shine down and fall on the python.

The snake's scales are as pale as clouds, reflecting the rays of the rising sun, as if they are bursting with flames.

In the courtyard, the young man in white was sitting on a wheelchair, looking at the python in front of him with a smile on his lips.

Behind him, Qian Yang and Yin Ming were like two divine generals, guarding him.

"Absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, refining the treasures of heaven and earth, we have finally reached this point."

Zhuang Ming took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

All the thoughts sank into the young dragon's body.

Just now I swallowed a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum again, and the medicinal power has been refined to 60%.

But he felt a shackles.

If the shackles cannot be broken through, then the remaining 40% of the medicine's power will have no choice but to pass away.

It's like a bucket that is full of water but still has excess water poured out.

If the bucket cannot be expanded, the remaining water will overflow.

At this moment, what Zhuang Ming needs to do is to use the body of a young dragon to refine the power of the medicine, and use the excess medicine to break away from this layer of shackles and advance to a higher level.

It's like using excess water to expand the bucket.

"According to calculations, the remaining 40% of the medicine's power is enough to push the young dragon to the peak of its current state."

The young dragon is like a pale white python, coiled on the ground, looking up at the sky, its eyes flashing, facing the rising sun, breathing in and out.

In fact, taking the final step forward to reach the current state is not too difficult for the young dragon.

After all, it is driven by medicine and can absorb the essence of the sun and moon. It can naturally expand its body size, advance to the upper level of this realm, and push it to the peak of the current realm.

As Zhuang Ming concentrated on refining all spiritual energy with the body of a young dragon, he saw that the python in the courtyard was getting longer and longer.

Gradually become longer.

Gradually become thicker.

The scales became more and more crystal clear, like jade.

His eyes became deeper and deeper, with a hidden light.

——

The place where the Dongsheng Dynasty is located is under the jurisdiction of Jusheng Mountain, and is known as the blessed land of Jusheng Mountain.

When it comes to cultivating the Immortal Sect, in this blessed land, only the Jushengshan lineage can be found.

Moreover, outsiders are prohibited from entering this blessed land.

But they gather in the Holy Mountain to hide themselves from the world, not involving themselves in the mortal world, and not showing the Dharma in front of others.

Therefore, in the Dongsheng Dynasty, although there were legends of immortals and gods, there were no real people with moral conduct.

Even in the court, many civil servants listed the stories of gods, gods and ghosts as mythical legends.

However, in the mortal world, all inheritance is not completely cut off.

Zhuang Ming collected many Taoist books during his stay in the Dongsheng Dynasty, including superficial basic exercises, incomplete practice methods, and fragments of Taoist techniques.

There is also a complete Taoist technique, the Hunyuan Yiqi Sword, in the ancient travel notes obtained from the scholar Fang Yi.

"There are still shallow or incomplete practices in the world, but there are not many complete sect inheritances left."

"It's probably because the practice method is incomplete, shallow and inferior, making it difficult to practice, and the inheritance is gradually lost."

"It's just that the world is so big, there are not exceptions."

"For example, the scholar in Gao Yue Tower probably has the method of cultivating Qi. As long as he perseveres, he may not be unable to cultivate a ray of Qi."

"But if he wants to break through to the Dao Seal level, it's hard to say."

Zhuang Ming slowly opened his eyes and exhaled slowly.

The Dongsheng Dynasty, the cultivators, and the theory of gods are illusory. Since the Dongsheng Dynasty unified this vast area, there have only been a few times where Jindan real people related to the Jusheng Mountain have shown their magic, and they have been listed as legends of gods and immortals.

, which has been passed down to this day.

To the world, these stories are too old and difficult to distinguish between true and false. They can only be listened to as stories.

But in fact, under the Golden Pill, apart from the disciples gathered in the Holy Mountain, it is not completely absent.

In the mortal world, there have been several amazingly talented people who have understood the level of Tao Seal from basic exercises.

For example, thirty years ago, when the late Emperor was still alive, the National Preceptor at that time came out of a small Taoist temple, had a middle-level Taoist seal cultivation, and was revered as a semi-immortal figure.

At the level of Tao Seal, the Dantian has condensed its roots. Holding the seal, reciting the secrets orally, and stepping on the stars, you can perform Tao magic.

Depending on what you have learned, it may cause a storm, send out a flame, send out a stream of water, or encourage a plant to grow.

If you really want to talk about it, such Taoist techniques can be regarded as mysterious. When placed in the mundane world, it will inevitably appear mysterious and unpredictable, so it is also regarded as the magic of gods.

As for the national master who had mastered the Tao Seal and was able to use Tao techniques, he was also revered as a semi-immortal, and his status was extremely high. Even martial arts masters must respect him when he saw it.

But in fact, at the level of Dao Seal, it is just a way to perform Taoism, which appears to be mysterious. In Zhuang Ming's eyes, its power is still limited, and it may not necessarily be better than those who practice martial arts.

Warriors have strong Qi and blood, especially those who have experienced hundreds of battles. They are extremely murderous and are good at killing moves.

Zhuang Ming speculated that the national master who was revered as a semi-immortal back then might not be more powerful than Lu He if he really had to fight between life and death.

The person who achieved the Tao Seal back then could have such a status simply because there are very few successful Taoists in the world.

The more mysterious and mysterious the power, the more awe-inspiring it is.

Of course, this does not mean that those who practice Taoism are inferior to those who practice martial arts.

It's just that relatively speaking, each strength has its own emphasis.

Daoyin practitioners value the Dharma, while martial arts practitioners focus on gravity.

But if you really want to convert them, they are actually at the same level, and their strength is roughly the same. Ordinary Taoist skills in the middle level of Daoyin can break a stone tablet, while a strong person with the second level of martial arts can also split a rockery.

Under such circumstances, the so-called victory or defeat only depends on who can exert his own abilities to a higher level and be more flexible, that's all.

About twenty years ago, in Jusheng Mountain, the Seventh Brother was still at the upper level of the Dao Seal, but he had thoroughly studied the level of the Dao Seal. Various Tao techniques were readily available, and they were extremely powerful, especially better than ordinary Dao Seals.

The upper class people.

The senior brother once praised Lao Qi for being good at using it. Even three upper-level practitioners of ordinary Tao seals or three martial arts masters could not compete with him.

"Whether it is the third level of martial arts or the upper level of Dao Seal, after all, it is still within the boundaries of the human world. Although it is stronger than ordinary people, it is still an ordinary person and cannot have unparalleled power."

As Zhuang Ming sighed like this.

The transformation of the young dragon has already been completed.

A long chant is refreshing.

Zhuang Ming's mind drove the young dragon to come, and he also looked at it.

After the transformation, the young dragon is now about ten feet long, as thick as a human leg, its scales are as crystal clear as jade, and its aura is getting stronger and stronger.

"After today, my body as a young dragon will be comparable to the upper level of Daoyin, and comparable to that of a martial arts master."

"As for the combat power, under my control, I dare not say that it is invincible within the realm of the world's Dao Seal. However, within the Dongsheng Dynasty, even the master-level experts at the third level of martial arts are no match for the young dragon."

"It will probably take strong men like Qian Yang and Yin Ming to join forces to barely be able to defeat this young dragon."

"We are both in the upper echelon of Daoyin. I wonder how this young dragon's abilities compare to those of the seventh senior brother twenty years ago?"

"I haven't competed, so it's hard to tell the difference. However, at least now this young dragon is the strongest force in my hand. It is even stronger than Qian Yang and Yin Ming."

Zhuang Ming stretched out his hand, and his thoughts moved like arms and fingers.

The young dragon came towards himself.

As it gets closer, the young dragon actually gets smaller and smaller.

When it arrived in front of him, it transformed into a small snake again, no longer than a foot long and no thicker than a finger.

Ancient books record that the ancient true dragon can be large or small, it can rise or disappear. If it is large, it can stir up clouds and spit out mist. If it is small, it can hide its form. If it rises, it can fly in the universe. If it is hidden, it can lurk within the waves.

Although this young dragon has not yet become a real dragon, when Zhuang Ming refined it with Taiqing Qi, it had the magical power of "big and small Ruyi".

It's just that in the past, the body was too young, so it was only small, not big.

Now that he has been able to grow, his body size has increased and he has become much larger. It is not difficult to use this magical power to shrink his body size.

"Xiao Ruyi has such magical power. If he can use it well, it will be a great advantage."

"It already has power that is not inferior to that of a martial arts master."

"He also possesses the magical power of great and small Ruyi."
