Chapter 749 Yinglong's Legacy

The forbidden area of ​​the shattered island, the teleportation array.

Li Yuan stood in front of the silvery-white halo, introspectively examining his entire body.

The shockwaves left by the three Nascent Soul level impacts have subsided, and the scales on his chest have been fully repaired.

The teleportation array's light circle rotated smoothly. Within the array patterns recorded by the Myriad Manifestations Retrospection, two coordinates were positioned to the left and right. The inscription stated that the first relic contained dragon marrow, and the second relic contained techniques.

Li Yuan chose the first option.

Spiritual energy was injected into the teleportation node on the left side of the array platform, and a silvery-white light suddenly shone, enveloping the entire body. The spatial walls distorted.

A few breaths later, my feet touched solid ground.

The silvery light dissipated.

The surrounding area was an underground stone chamber, about thirty feet in diameter, with a very low dome. In the center of the chamber was a natural stone pool, the edges of which were carved with spiritual patterns.

The pool was filled with a dark golden liquid, thick as honey, with a faint dragon aura flowing across its surface. Pure dragon essence steamed out, filling the entire stone chamber.

Dragon marrow liquid.

The dragon bloodline within Li Yuan immediately surged, as if it had smelled something of the same origin.

The walls of the stone chamber were engraved with remnants of spiritual runes, most of them broken and blurred, but the recognizable parts were the spiritual runes of the dragon race's body refinement. The Myriad Manifestations Retrospection recorded them one by one.

He walked to the edge of the pool.

The edge of the pool was covered with a pale golden spiritual energy membrane, and on its surface were two sets of verification spiritual patterns. The first set tested bloodline, and the second set tested the foundation of physical cultivation.

Li Yuan activated his dragon bloodline, releasing a 50% concentration of dragon aura. The first set of spirit patterns lit up with a dark golden light.

The second set of spiritual runes swept across the physical body, simultaneously revealing the interwoven layer of light and demon after the completion of the Ancient Demonic Path Body Refining Secret Technique, and the spiritual power infusion structure for the initial stage of the Profound Iron Condensing Yuan Body. The spiritual runes flashed twice and lit up as well.

The restrictions were lifted.

Li Yuan took off his outer clothes and jumped into the pool.

The dark golden dragon marrow liquid covered his entire body.

The heat penetrated from the skin to the bones. Pure dragon essence surged in through the pores, running along the muscles and deep into the bones, resonating with the dragon's bloodline.

After the Dragon Essence was pressed into the bones, the interwoven layers of light and demon tightened abruptly. The spiritual power infusion of the Xuan Tie Condensed Essence Body was also activated, with spiritual power surging from the meridians into the bones and filling the depths of the bone ridges.

Half an hour later, the last gap in the bone ridge was filled with spiritual energy.

Proficient in using Xuan Tie Condensed Yuan Body.

Li Yuan sank to the bottom of the pool, continuing to absorb the dragon essence.

At one moment, blue text rippled from the mud at the bottom of the pool.

Li Yuan reached down and his fingertips touched a hard object.

A dark golden mineral crystal, about the size of an egg, was pulled out, with extremely fine dragon veins flowing on its surface.

[Equipable item detected: Dragon Marrow Ore Crystal]

[Equipment Attribute Preview: Dragon Marrow Body - Blue]

[Effect: The cultivation efficiency of the Dragon Clan Body Refining Technique is doubled, and the body refining effect is increased by 30%.]

[Preview of Permanentization Requirements: Mastery of a fifth-tier dragon race cultivation technique]

Li Yuan scanned the panel and sent the Dragon Marrow Ore Crystal into his equipment slot.

The mineral crystals disappeared in his palm.

His internal bones trembled, and the dragon essence surged in much faster.

The Dragon Marrow Body Essence is now effective.

Seven days later.

Li Yuan rose from the bottom of the pool, dark golden dragon marrow liquid sliding down his body.

The water level in the pool dropped several inches. The concentration of the dragon's bloodline increased from 50% to about 55%, still short of 60%.

Just as they were about to leave the pool, the dragon's remains at the bottom of the pool stirred.

On his first day in the pool, Li Yuan noticed a dragon skeleton at the bottom. The skeleton was enormous, at least thirty feet long from head to tail, its bones a dark gold with a hint of purple, and perfectly preserved. He didn't disturb it, but simply used the Myriad Manifestations Retrospection technique to record the skeleton.

At this moment, the dragon skull's eyes shone with a pale golden light.

A phantom emerged from the skeleton.

The phantom was about three zhang tall, with a dragon's head and a snake's body, two wings on its back, and a pair of deer antlers on its head.

Yinglong's regret.

The phantom hovered above the pool's surface, its pale golden eyes fixed on Li Yuan. Its lips didn't move, yet its voice entered his mind.

"Dragon bloodline, 55% complete. Foundation for body refinement—"

Regret paused for a moment.

"Not bad."

Li Yuan looked at it without backing away.

Yinglong's lingering aura was extremely weak, not even reaching the Nascent Soul level.

The lingering resentment continued, "You repaired the entrance restriction?"

"No. The restriction has passed verification; disperse on your own."

He remained silent for several breaths, filled with regret.

"Deep within this place lies a void rift, and the seal has been largely shattered. My remaining will has sustained the seal until now, but my spiritual power is nearly exhausted."

It looked at Li Yuan.

"If you can repair the seal, I will give you two things. One is the Dragon Clan's secret body-refining technique, and the other is the complete coordinates of the Second Relic."

Li Yuan asked, "How big is the crack?"

"It's about three feet wide. The sealing runes originally had twelve layers, but now only three layers remain, barely holding it down."

"Take me to see it."

The lingering, illusory image drifted toward the north side of the stone chamber.

Behind the north wall was a hidden passage, no more than two zhang wide, extending downwards. Li Yuan followed the lingering spirit for a hundred zhang until they reached its end.

A void crack is embedded in the rock wall.

Three feet wide, its edges alternating between silver and dark. Most of the sealing runes around the crack were shattered, with only the bottom three layers still functioning, their spiritual light flickering erratically.

A chaotic force seeped from the other side of the crack; it was not demonic energy, but more like the erosion of the void itself.

Li Yuan squatted down and placed his palm on the remaining spiritual runes.

The Array Dao Heavenly Pivot is activated.

The bottom layer of the seal was a technique used by the Dragon Clan, sharing the same origin as the spirit patterns on the array platform of the Shattered Island Forbidden Zone. Traces of the upper twelve layers of seal remnants remained, and the Myriad Manifestations Reversal quickly pieced together the original pattern.

Li Yuan stood up.

"It can be repaired."

Can Nian's pale gold eyes lit up.

A surge of spiritual energy erupted from his palm, first piercing the remaining three layers of spiritual runes. Six thin threads pressed against the edge of the crack, followed by a shattering sound.

stop.

Then repair it layer by layer.

Li Yuan laid the foundation using a carrier-free closed-loop method, then opened up environmental absorption nodes. Layer upon layer of spiritual patterns closed in the void, and all phenomena were compared with the remains, with any discrepancies being immediately corrected.

The fourth floor, the fifth floor, and the sixth floor.

His spiritual energy was greatly depleted. Li Yuan stopped once midway, used the Condensing Essence and Transforming Emptiness Technique to recover, and then continued.

The seventh floor, the eighth floor, and the ninth floor.

By the tenth floor, the spirit runes were falling much more smoothly than before.

The tenth floor, the eleventh floor, the twelfth floor.

As the final layer closed, all twelve seals lit up simultaneously. Silvery-white light surged from the nodes, pressing down on the crack layer by layer.

The crack shrank from three feet to one foot, and was then compressed to less than half a foot. The power of chaos almost stopped seeping out.

The seal has been repaired.

Yinglong's lingering spirit hovered above the secret passage, its pale golden eyes dimming slightly.

"It's done."

It observed Li Yuan's movements.

"The secret method is for you."

The lingering resentment opened its mouth, and a golden spiritual light shot out, entering Li Yuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

A complete set of techniques unfolds.

The True Dragon Nine Forging Technique. A fifth-tier dragon body-refining technique. It uses dragon essence to temper the bones through nine rounds: the first forging tempers the surface bone, the second tempers the trabeculae, and the third tempers the bone marrow. Upon completion of all nine forgings, the bones can reach the quality of dragon bones.

Can Nian then said, "Coordinates of the second relic."

A spatial coordinate was inputted into the sea of ​​consciousness. The myriad phenomena were automatically recorded.

The coordinates are located in the far west of the Demon Dragon Domain, far from the Broken Island Forbidden Area.

"Thank you," Li Yuan said.

The light in his pale gold eyes flickered one last time.

"The dragon race's legacy should not end here."

The phantom image vanished.

Only the silvery-white seal light remained, flowing across the rock walls in the dark passage.

Li Yuan turned around and returned to the Dragon Marrow Pool.

There was still more than half of the dragon marrow liquid left in the pool. He immersed himself back into the pool and activated the True Dragon Nine Forging Technique.

The dragon essence surged into the surface of the bones, grinding against the bone tissue again and again. After the Dragon Marrow Body Essence was activated, the tempering speed was faster than expected.

Half a day later, the surface of the entire skeleton completed the first round of tempering.

The True Dragon Nine Forging Techniques, Beginner Level.

Li Yuan rose from the bottom of the pool and finished his practice.

He opened the entrance to his personal miniature world.

The spiritual energy within the small realm is stable, with two medium-sized spiritual veins at the core and six small spiritual veins scattered around. The spatial spirit-gathering array is still in operation.

Of the six small spiritual veins, three are located adjacent to each other, and their frequency difference is less than 10%.

Li Yuan activated the Qi-nurturing spiritual technique.

Spiritual energy transformed into fine threads that probed into the three spiritual veins, and the network-like circulation of all spiritual energy returning to the veins adjusted the flow of spiritual energy accordingly. The frequencies of the three spiritual veins gradually aligned, their surfaces adhered, and the fusion channel opened.

As spiritual energy surged in, the tube walls quickly solidified and thickened.

The third medium-sized spiritual vein in the minor realm has taken shape.

The minor spiritual veins transformed into three medium-sized and three small ones. The spatial spirit-gathering array redistributed the spiritual energy, with the three medium-sized spiritual veins at the core and the three small spiritual veins as tributaries.

The roots of the Enlightenment Tree reached into the soil near the new spiritual vein, and the resonance wave became slightly stronger.

The cracks on the seeds were larger than before, and golden-green light shone through the cracks. The stamens were a dark gold with a hint of green, their color a shade deeper.

Li Yuan recorded the changes and closed the entrance to the small world.

In the Dragon Marrow Pool, dark golden liquid slowly circulated.

He sank back to the bottom of the pool.
