Chapter 349: Chapter 269: Lightning Dog – Dragon Ao (2nd update) _1

However, Jiang Hui couldn’t be bothered to ponder the motives behind the actions of these aged creatures. Using his brain obviously didn’t match his character. Most of the time, he was too lazy to think.

A hundred miles apart, Jiang Hui casually waved his hand, and a rainbow-like light washed away, directly wiping clean the “Forbidden” character composed of fresh blood.

He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but when the multicolored light washed away, Jiang Hui vaguely heard sorrowful screams filled with malice coming from the bloody Forbidden character. It seemed like wailing ghosts, extremely soul-stirring.

“Can’t even die properly, and still need me to assist you. Next time this happens I’m charging!” Jiang Hui raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking to himself.

…

…

Time flew by, silently turning into sand that quietly slipped through the cracks of fingers. In the blink of an eye, several months had passed since Liu Village arrived in the Upper Realm.

The village was blessed with a pleasant climate and picturesque scenery.

Beneath the nourishment of the vast spiritual energy, there were no distinct seasons in the village. It was mostly like a vibrant spring — gentle rain, full of life’s vigor everywhere.

Behind the village, the path that Jiang Hui had named Netherworld Road, compared to several months ago, was now flanked by Nirvana Lilies burning hotter and brighter than ever.

The Nirvana Lily had no green leaves, only dense blossoms. It bloomed all year round, always showcasing its burning beauty — incredibly red.

As for the Sky River that was moved alongside the Immortal’s Tomb, it kept pouring into the Utopia Array. It seemed inexhaustible and hadn’t shown any signs of slowing down. Like the surging river at the beginning, roaring and stirring up waves, the momentum was frightening.

Fortunately, the Utopia Array had its own space and possessed a vast independent realm that could accommodate everything without overflowing, otherwise, it might not fit.

Given the speed and width of the Sky River, coupled with it flowing continuously for several months, it could even fill a star.

Jiang Hui hoped that the Sky River could keep flowing. Originally, the Utopia Array was mainly defense-oriented and didn’t have much offensive capability. Now, with the input of the Sky River, it implied a bit of offensive prowess. The torrential Sky River shuttled between the mountains, turned into severe killing intent, and could kill any creature that entered it.

Once trapped, not only would one have to face the maze of the Utopia Array’s mountains but also beware of the surging Sky River and the countless corpses in the river, unknown for how many years. The two complemented each other. Even Celestial God realm creatures accidentally caught inside would bleed profusely, no need to trample them to death inside. This was quite a surprise compliment.

Worth mentioning is that a few days ago, Tu Wa Zi, Gu Chen, Lin Chuang, Lin Chen and others all came back safe and sound. Jiang Hui’s first true body didn’t return with them but left directly after they woke up.

Jiang Hui’s definition for the first true body was quite simple — pure free range. Unless it faced a life-threatening crisis, he wouldn’t make a move or intervene under normal circumstances.

In particular, the first true body now had the ability to think independently, make its own judgements, and was no longer a simple puppet.

Most importantly, the potential of the first true body was too terrifying. After ascending the Heavenly Stairs, it achieved unimaginable improvements. It possessed seven or eight amazing talents unimaginable to ordinary creatures. Any one of them, taken out separately, was enough to shock the world and drive countless creatures into frenzy.

Even the legitimate heirs of the Immortal Dao barely compared. Thus, they could only endeavors to draw out the potential of the first True Body as much as possible. However, considering that the other party carries a fragment of Jiang Hui’s original spirit, they should also be capable of using advanced techniques like True Dragon Skills. The level of proficiency, however, would have to start from scratch.

…

During this period of settling, individuals like Tu Wa Zi have completely completed the broken rules within their bodies. Although they have not truly ignited the Divine Fire, their strength has improved dramatically. Stepping into the divine position is only a matter of time.

For people like Tu Wa Zi, crossing into the Divine Realm is no longer an obstacle, but a natural occurrence. It’s like eating; when you eat enough, you will naturally feel full. There is no such thing as an insatiable appetite.

Moreover, they only need to further comprehend the divine runes imprinted from the Divine Tomb Trial Ground to advance this step.

In Jiang Hui’s view, it will take no more than three months, by which time they should all be able to shed their mortal bodies and truly enter a new stage of life.

Being a deity at such a young age is a rare event even in the Upper Realm.

However, if there is anything that surprised Jiang Hui most during this period, it was a Ferocious Beast.

It was a leader of the Lightning Dogs, known for its speed. When it ran at full strength, it was like a flash of lightning, hence its name.

It’s a rather rare breed of Ferocious Beast in the Lower Realm, but it’s seen more frequently in the Upper Realm. Some major clans would purposely keep some to guard the house.

Although the attack of the Lightning Dog was not strong, its speed was remarkably fast. In case of any emergencies, it served as a perfect messenger.

What piqued Jiang Hui’s interest was not the speed of the Lightning Dog, but its evolutionary changes. A pair of sharp and huge horn-like objects actually evolved on its head, looking majestic and imposing.

Not only that, but the physique of this Lightning Dog has also unprecedentedly improved, expanding overnight to be as large as a mountain. The lower half of the body even transformed into a True Dragon body with luminescent crystalline bones, sparkling and radiating a sense of awe that made every beast tremble.

Even the Departure Fire Divine Bull and Little Black couldn’t resist such pressure. Fortunately, they had spent enough time with Little True Dragon to adapt to the situation.

As for the Three-eyed Raven, it was much relaxed. It was more precious than some common Pure Blood Creatures, and could even be compared with the Demon Emperor Butterfly. They were once both considered for the title of Ten Evil, but others managed to snag the slots first.

The Three-eyed Crow was only solemn, feeling another competitor that could vie for favor with the master has appeared in the village.

The True Dragon and the toad were tolerable because their bloodline surpassed it, but then a competitor inferior only to the two predecessors was born, which made it feel quite pressured.

The anomaly of the Lightning Dog naturally caught the attention of Old man Lin. After scrutinizing it, a thick expression of surprise flooded onto the face of this man who was already in his 60s.

“Since ancient times, some Ferocious Beasts would choose to evolve into True Dragons when they reach their limit. Every Ferocious Beast carries a potential to transform into a True Dragon, and this is not an exaggeration. In the long course of time, there were indeed Ferocious Beasts that had achieved this, surpassing the mortal and reaching unimaginable levels!”

Old man Lin was filled with astonishment. In his youth, he had traveled across the world and heard of such legendary events. He never imagined that he would personally witness this utmost sublimation of life.
