Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 408 Devouring
Yu Wenhua was so surprised because the "Size at Will" supernatural power was a divine power inherited from the North Sea Divine Sect. Unless one went to the North Sea Divine Sect to comprehend it, the outside world could not obtain this supernatural power at all.

He thought of the 'Size at Will' talisman. Could it be that the Chaos Dragon could master this supernatural power with just one 'Size at Will' talisman?
If that were truly the case, there would be no need for the inheritance of supernatural powers, and supernatural powers would not be so difficult to master.

Li Zhen had finished drawing the 'Size at Will' divine rune. With a wave of his hand, the 'Size at Will' divine rune flew towards the corpse of the Xuanwu divine beast.

The "Size at Will" talisman enveloped the corpse of the Xuanwu Divine Beast in a pale yellow light, causing the corpse to suddenly shrink to half its original size.

Even though the Xuanwu divine beast's corpse had shrunk to half its original size, it was still enormous.

Fortunately, he had mastered the "size at will" supernatural power to an extremely high level, and could perform the "size at will" supernatural power multiple times.

He once again drew the 'size at will' rune and added it to the corpse of the Xuanwu divine beast.

After several repetitions, the corpse of the Xuanwu divine beast had grown to a size of ten meters in diameter.

He placed the dragon claw on the corpse of the Xuanwu divine beast, and with a slight thought, the corpse of the Xuanwu divine beast was indeed stored in the Dragon Heart Space.

Looking at the Xuanwu divine beast corpse floating in the Dragon Heart Space, he still couldn't believe that he had so simply put the Xuanwu divine beast into the Dragon Heart Space.

With his absolute control over the Dragon Heart Space, he was able to pass through the shell of the Xuanwu Divine Beast and sense the situation inside.

He discovered that since the Xuanwu Divine Beast had voluntarily given up its physical body, this Xuanwu Divine Beast's physical body was intact, including a fifth-order demon core.

However, at this moment, the fifth-tier demon core has already fused with the Xuanwu divine beast's body and cannot be taken out separately.

If he collects the Xuanwu Divine Beast's corpse a little later, he won't be able to put the fifth-tier demon core into the absolutely still Dragon Heart Space. In that case, it won't be long before the fifth-tier demon core completely disappears, with some of its energy flowing into the Xuanwu Divine Beast's corpse and the rest dissipating into the world.

Li Zhen directed the Dragon Heart Space to devour the corpse of the Xuanwu Divine Beast, and he found that the devouring process was extremely slow.

It wasn't that the Xuanwu Divine Beast's corpse was of a higher grade; it was a Chaos Divine Dragon, also a fifth-tier divine beast, belonging to the same level as the Xuanwu Divine Beast.

The process of devouring was slow because the corpse of the Xuanwu Divine Beast was too large. The 'Size at Will' divine power shrunk the corpse of the Xuanwu Divine Beast, but the quality of the devoured corpse by the Dragon Heart Space did not change.

The time required to devour a ten-meter-tall fifth-tier physical body will be different from the time required to devour a fifth-tier physical body that is almost equivalent to a large island.

Fortunately, he has plenty of time and can wait patiently.

Having resolved the issue of the Xuanwu divine beast's corpse, he refocused his attention on the newly acquired 'size at will' divine power.

Although this "size at will" divine ability is a fifth-order auxiliary type divine ability, such divine abilities can almost always be performed without damage, without causing any harm to heaven and earth, and therefore will not produce any backlash from heaven and earth.

But he saw other uses for the 'size at will' supernatural power, and he acted on his idea.

He granted himself the supernatural power of "size at will," but he chose to amplify it.

His Chaos Dragon Body instantly doubled in size. He sensed the changes after the increase in size. Although his size had increased, his dragon body had not weakened. On the contrary, the increase in size made his attacks more threatening.

He used the "size at will" supernatural power several more times until it reached its limit, at which point he stopped.

At this moment, his dragon body had grown to ten thousand meters long. Although it was not as large as the Xuanwu divine beast, its size was still unimaginable.

What's most terrifying is his physical combat strength. Since his physical strength did not decrease as his body grew larger, and his attack power increased proportionally after his body grew larger.

"The Supreme Sect Master's talent is truly unparalleled!" Yu Wenhua praised.

His praise was genuine. He personally handed the 'Size at Will' talisman to Li Zhen and watched as Li Zhen's Chaotic Dragon Body used the 'Size at Will' talisman.

Adding the "size at will" divine power to oneself to enhance one's combat power is a high-level application of the "size at will" divine power.

In the history of the North Sea Divine Sect, only one Nascent Soul cultivator has reached this level, namely the Nascent Soul cultivator who created the 'Size at Will' divine power talisman just now. "I really want to meet the person who created such a divine power!" Li Zhen said, having restored the Chaos Divine Dragon to its original size.

“You are already the Supreme Sect Master of the North Sea Divine Sect, so you will naturally be able to meet the one who created the ‘Size at Will’ divine power!” Yu Wenhua thought for a moment and said.

Li Zhen was taken aback, not expecting that the person who created the "size at will" supernatural power was still alive.

No, the 'size at will' supernatural power couldn't have been created by a human who had reached the Divine Transformation stage. He thought of the fifth-tier guardian beings of the North Sea Divine Sect. Perhaps the 'size at will' supernatural power was the innate supernatural power of the fifth-tier guardian beings.

"What is the fifth-tier foundation of the Beihai Divine Sect?" Li Zhen asked directly.

As the Supreme Sect Master of the North Sea Divine Sect, it was only natural for him to be aware of the sect's situation.

"It is the Kunpeng divine beast, but it is not easy to see the Kunpeng divine beast. It lives in the depths of the North Sea trench and only appears once every few hundred years. Each time it appears, it devours a large number of spirit fish."

One of the most important tasks of the North Sea Divine Sect is to cultivate spirit fish within the sect, which is also a contract between the senior powerful figures of the North Sea Divine Sect and the Kunpeng divine beast.

The North Sea Divine Sect will provide a certain number of spirit fish for the Kunpeng Divine Beast, and in return, the Kunpeng Divine Beast will protect the sect! Yu Wenhua had no intention of hiding anything. Since he had decided to pledge allegiance to the Chaos Divine Dragon, he would be decisive.

Hiding it away is not a good thing. In any case, given the strength shown by the Chaos Dragon, neither the North Sea Divine Sect nor the Kunpeng Divine Beast can defeat it.

"The Kunpeng divine beast, a divine beast from the same era as the Xuanwu divine beast, still exists!" Li Zhen couldn't help but sigh.

In ancient times, some ancient texts recorded the situation at that time, which was the era of fifth-order beings.

Many mythical beasts lived in ancient times until a great catastrophe occurred in the world, and a large number of fifth-order beings disappeared, especially the already few fifth-order beings, whose entire races disappeared into the long river of time.

There are only the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan, but the Dragon God and the Phoenix God disappeared, leaving only the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan.

After many years of development, the noble bloodline allowed the Dragon and Phoenix races to return to their peak, resulting in the emergence of fifth-tier Dragon Gods and Phoenix Gods.

Li Zhen could deduce the situation of the Kunpeng divine beast from the state of the Xuanwu divine beast.

These mythical beasts from ancient times, in order to survive, signed contracts with human cultivators and received their offerings.

However, the divine beasts were still barely clinging to life. Even the Xuanwu divine beast, which had the longest lifespan, had reached the end of its life. Although Li Zhen did not know how long the Kunpeng divine beast would live, he knew that the Kunpeng divine beast's condition was far from its peak.

Otherwise, the Kunpeng divine beast would not have cooperated with human cultivators because of the spirit fish. At its peak, the Kunpeng divine beast could swallow countless living beings with a single bite and roam freely between heaven and earth.

"Lord Yuwen, I still have some matters to attend to. I entrust the affairs of the North Sea Divine Sect to you!" Li Zhen said, as he was about to go into seclusion for cultivation.

“I can let the Supreme Sect Master use my cave first, and you can return to the North Sea Divine Sect for seclusion!” Yu Wenhua quickly suggested.

Chaos Dragon is already the Supreme Sect Master of the North Sea Divine Sect, and should return to the North Sea Divine Sect after his seclusion.

As for the cave dwelling to be built for the Supreme Sect Master, which has not yet been started, Yu Wenhua Shen is willing to give up his own cave dwelling first.

"No need, I'm currently in seclusion mainly to focus on enlightenment, spiritual energy has limited effect on me!" Li Zhen explained with a smile.

His most important task now is to wait for the Xuanwu divine beast's corpse to be devoured.

As for his advancement from human form to the Divine Transformation stage, that can be postponed for a while.

Rather than devouring the physical body and nascent soul of Xu Pan, a cultivator from the Southern Mountain Divine Sect, and using this fifth-order energy to advance to the Divine Transformation stage, he preferred to devour the energy transformed by the Xuanwu Divine Beast, as that would greatly reduce the difficulty of passing the fifth-order Heavenly Tribulation.

He was so cautious because his spirit had reached the fifth level, and coupled with his other identity as a fifth-level Chaos Dragon, he was worried that unexpected events might occur during the tribulation of a human body advancing to the Godhood stage. This had never happened before, and the changes that the tribulation might bring were also unknown.
