Chapter 236: Two Major Forms

“Stir up what kind of big news.”

Xu Qingyao said to Lin Jing irritably.

Did this person really know his own situation? Stirring up big news?

Wasn’t he very cautious before, not even daring to come to the Demon Court? What medicine did he take wrong now?

“It’s like this,” Lin Jing explained. “I study the Dao of Alchemy and usually need to use the Hidden Dragon Secret Technique of the Hidden Dragon Academy for deductions. Since my real identity hasn’t appeared for too long, my Potential Dragon Luck is almost exhausted. So, to study the Transformation Pill next, the name Lin Jing must once again be widely circulated in Qingzhou.”

【Writing to this point, I hope readers remember our domain name; the Taiwan novel-chasing divine tool is super useful.】

“I have condensed two Clones to walk Qingzhou in my place. In terms of safety, there shouldn’t be any problem.”

After speaking, Lin Jing, wearing the Fire Cloud Pill Robe, summoned his Lin Jing Clone and Pine Leaf Squirrel Clone.

Of these two Clones, one wore a plain white robe with a gourd hanging at his waist, looking strikingly handsome; it was his appearance from the Heavenly Pride Battle.

The Pine Leaf Squirrel also took its own image, both exactly matching the portraits on the wanted posters circulating in Qingzhou.

“This—” Xu Qingyao looked at the two Clones, slightly surprised. She couldn’t tell they were Clones at all. Besides that, she sensed powerful strength from both, easily rivaling an ordinary Golden Core.

“Illusion? But this texture…” She picked up the Pine Leaf Squirrel Clone.

“It’s the Soul Endowment Technique and Reverse Illusion Art of Thousand Illusion Mountain. Because of the illusion enhancement from the Shape-Shifting Demon Core, these two Clones are not inferior to our true bodies in combat power for a certain period. The only difference is their endurance; they can’t sustain combat for too long. If they take a certain amount of damage, they will dissipate quite quickly.”

“I see. Since they are Clones, then there’s no problem, especially since they are such perfect illusion Clones.” Xu Qingyao felt relieved and agreed with Lin Jing’s idea of sending Clones out to cause trouble. After all, this was a prerequisite for studying the Transformation Pill. She thought for a moment and said, “The major events in Qingzhou recently—”

She pondered and said, “Mainly, how do you want to cause trouble? There are many major events, like the wedding of a Fairy from the Misty Immortal Clan on the Misty Path. You can’t exactly go and crash a wedding, can you?”

“Uh, that’s too immoral. Let’s skip such happy occasions.” Lin Jing thought for a bit and said, “I feel that ordinary matters aren’t enough to provide much reputation. I want to settle it once and for all—”

“The Longevity Physique. I plan to actively expose my Longevity Physique,” he suddenly said.

“Huh???” Xu Qingyao was stunned. “Are you serious? You’re not hiding it anymore??”

Lin Jing nodded. “A man with many debts doesn’t worry about them. Anyway, the secret of the Longevity Physique can’t be hidden for long. The Ancient Kingdom, Yin Corpse Sect… too many people know about my Longevity Physique. It will be exposed sooner or later. In that case, it’s better to expose it proactively to exchange for reputation and Luck in advance and increase my strength.”

“With my current situation, even if it’s exposed, my true body won’t be in much danger.”

“How will you do it?”

“Publicize the Longevity Physique and use it as bait to counterattack the two major Demonic Sects.” Lin Jing spoke, “Since the Yin Corpse Sect can put a bounty on me, I can also put a bounty on the Yin Corpse Sect—”

“Using Longevity Blood as a reward, targeting the countless Yao Beast forces in Qingzhou. As long as they kill a powerhouse from the Yin Corpse Sect or Gu God Sect, they can receive a drop of Longevity Blood. Ten years from now, I will distribute the bounty at a designated location.”

“Of course, this bounty looks full of loopholes at first glance, and no one will think I’ll truly keep my promise and show up in public. But it doesn’t matter. What I want is the fame. A Foundation Establishment Longevity Physique putting a bounty on two major Demonic Sects is enough to make my name spread across Qingzhou and become a topic of conversation. It will circulate not only among Human Race forces but also among Yao Beast forces. What do you think, Senior Sister?”

Xu Qingyao was stunned again and again. “As expected of a student from the Hidden Dragon Academy, you’re ruthless enough…”

She suddenly thought of something and spoke, “If you’ve really decided, then a major event hosted by Yao Beasts…”

“…is clearly more suitable for you than one by the Human Race.”

“Do you know of the Heavenly Lion Clan?”

“The Heavenly Lion Clan?” Lin Jing asked. “The Heavenly Lion Clan that keeps a Longevity Physique in captivity?”

“Yes. The Heavenly Lion Clan holds an Ancestor Worship ceremony every ten years. A minor ceremony every ten years, and a major one every hundred years. At the ceremony, they invite various clans to share Longevity Delicacies.”

“If you’re determined to do this, the Heavenly Lion Clan’s Centennial Ceremony is a good place to go. There’s less than a year left until the ceremony, which is perfect timing. Most of the forces that can attend the ceremony are interested in Longevity flesh and blood. There are various Yao Beast tribes as well as cultivation Families that follow the Path of Beast Blood.”

“If you appear there, your name will surely spread throughout Qingzhou.”

Lin Jing thought for a moment; it was indeed a good place. He asked, “Will the Demon Court also send powerhouses?”

“No.” Xu Qingyao shook her head. “The Demon Court and the Heavenly Lion Clan are on bad terms. Their paths are different, and they don’t associate with each other.”

“Oh.” Lin Jing nodded. The Heavenly Lion Clan, huh? A top-tier Yao Beast race in Qingzhou.

“The three top-tier Yao Beast forces near Qingzhou—the Sea God Palace, the Demon Court, and the Mist Empire—were not actually composed of a single Yao Beast race but were Alliances of multiple races under the leadership of a Demon Emperor. Besides them…”

“…there were also some Yao Beast races that hadn’t joined these three top-tier forces and lived independently.”

“The Heavenly Lion Clan was one of them. The Heavenly Lion Ancestor was a top-tier Demon Ancestor just below the level of the three Demon Emperors.”

“Then let’s go with the Heavenly Lion Clan—”

Lin Jing was eager to try, curious about how much his Potential Dragon Luck would grow after stirring up this big news.

Just then, a familiar cry came from nearby.

“Bo!”

After receiving the Legacy memories of the Divine Dragon Transformation, the Fire Scale Dragon had changed back into its Dragon Carp form and was spinning around in place, looking clueless.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Jing was startled and looked over.

“The Divine Dragon Transformation is extremely difficult to Cultivate. Even getting started isn’t easy. It must have run into some trouble,” Xu Qingyao said upon seeing this.

“!!” The Dragon Carp widened its eyes and told the two about its cultivation difficulties.

In just a short time, it had already successfully shaped two forms.

Normal form: Dragon Carp form.

The Dragon Carp had made its most primitive and Elementary form its normal state.

Besides that, it had also shaped an offensive form.

Divine Dragon Form.

Dragons were a very special Yao Beast race. The ‘dan’ formed by other Yao Beasts at the Core Formation stage is called a Demon Core, but the ‘dan’ formed by Dragons is called a Dragon Pearl. Dragon Pearl Divine Abilities have great power and are very suitable for offense, especially since the Dragon Carp planned to form a Flame Emperor Dragon Pearl. The Dragon body was most suitable as an offensive form.

By tracing its ancestral Bloodline, the Dragon Carp also found two forms very suitable for defense and speed.

The Defense Form was naturally the Qilin Form. The Qilin is also known as the’Strange Scale’; its scales have amazing defensive power, and because of its longevity, its vitality is immense, making it very suitable as a defensive shield.

As for the Speed Form, the Dragon Carp traced an even older Bloodline: a winged, horse-like exotic beast. Although it didn’t recognize this ancestor, the Bloodline information told it that this form was the fastest!

However, while the Dragon Carp and Divine Dragon Forms were shaped very easily, the Dragon Carp couldn’t succeed in shaping the Qilin and Flying Horse Forms no matter what.

“Those two Bloodlines are too ancient for it to easily trace, unlike the Dragon Clan Bloodline. It must have used quite a lot of Dragon resources normally,” the Senior Sister said. “There are two ways. One is to slowly Cultivate and get started…”},{

…which takes time. The second is for me to take you all to the Qilin Yao Clan for a visit.

“Are you listening?” Xu Qingyao looked at Lin Jing, who was absent-minded and shouting in his heart.

“Holy crap, am I really going to have a White Dragon Horse to ride? ‘The Yinglong gave birth to the Jianma, and the Jianma gave birth to the Qilin’… it’s actually true!”
