Volume 1 Chapter 146: Expelling Divine Realm

  This is a strange and wonderful divine pool, square and upright, with a majestic and dignified flavor, subtly in harmony with heaven and earth.

  Inside the divine pool, the water ripples and undulates, all in a golden hue, like jade-like liquid, exuding an aura of sacredness. In the center of the pool's waters, a vague, shadowy figure floats, seemingly wanting to manifest but lacking something.

  "Shen Chi" is something unique to the third-tier strong cultivators of Qi, determined by the rules of heaven and earth, or even some cosmic rules.

  The "true energy" in the body of a Qi cultivator comes from the universe, and is born with various laws and rules that govern the balance of all things between heaven and earth.

  When these rules and laws are focused to a certain extent, they will form a wonderful divine pool in the body of the martial artist, possessing subtle creative power.

  This is mentioned in "The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation".

  Lin Xi was also unclear about the secrets of "Shen Chi", but Lin Xi clearly felt that Shen Chi contained infinite power.

  "The fire is not enough, and it lacks some energy."

  Lin Xi seemed to be thinking of something.

  Bang!

  Lin Xi suddenly stretched out his palm and slapped it on the corpse of the Hell Dragon, unleashing a shocking burst of strength that easily lifted the massive Hell Dragon, which was as heavy as a mountain, over his head, looking like a celestial being.

  The energy of this Hell Dragon's physical body has been absorbed by Lin Xi almost completely. What remains is the dragon's most important and energetic Dan within its body.

  "Dragon's inner elixir, absorb it for me!"

  Lin Xi's five fingers closed together, and a continuous flow of energy immediately rolled down from the top of his head.

  In the lower abdomen, the golden "divine pool" is even more radiant, and the water in the pool continues to vibrate under the impact of energy.

  In the center of the pool, a vague shadow also slowly became clear.

  The Hell Dragon of the Qi Xian period, how enormous its energy is. Under the infusion of this enormous energy, the virtual shadow in Lin Xi's body quickly took shape.

  First, a lot of golden fur, then a vague beast body, followed by four sharp claws and a tail!

  "Roar!"

  In the midst of a loud and fierce roar, a majestic golden male lion suddenly took shape. This male lion, with an air of majesty, was fully revealed, its four paws standing on the waves, emitting an aura that gazed at all directions, exuding a powerful and mighty breath.

  This is Shenxiu Sect's "Shiying Gong", after reaching the stage of driving out spirits, it takes shape and condenses into a male lion!

  However, Lin Xi's male lion was somewhat different from Shen Xiao Sect's.

  This male lion's body was actually covered in a dense layer of dragon scales, and even its four legs were fully scaled. Moreover, the lion's eyes weren't round pupils, but rather vertical pupils like those of dragons and snakes. It looked neither quite like a lion nor quite like a dragon, and it gave off an aura that seemed to be able to uproot mountains and rivers, exuding an air of intimidation.

  Lin Xi suddenly realized that the majestic lion condensed from the essence of the ancient true dragon was not like this at all. This was the result of his own constant practice with the Dragon Yuan, cultivating the "Lion's Palm"!

  Rumble!

  The moment the lion-shaped seal was formed, the pool water churned and another dark green arm emerged from the water. A green-faced, fang-toothed demon king seemed to be about to take shape under the water, but something was still missing, and it couldn't quite materialize.

  Right after that, another "Lei Gong" head emerged from the water with flashing lightning, but it only formed half of its head before stopping.

  This is the result of Lin Xihui's incomplete practice of "Gui Wang Gong" and "Lei Gong Da Fa".

  The former is an evil way of practicing, not suitable for Lin Xi. The latter requires a large amount of five-element thunder elements, so massive that it's unimaginable to Lin Xi, and the difficulty of practice is simply unimaginable, so only half of it has taken shape.

  Splash!

  In the depths of the pool, the sound of water was loud and clear, and vaguely, something else was taking shape. Lin Xi vaguely saw a dense golden scale, a long and winding shadow, faintly condensing into a dragon shape.

  However, before he could carefully examine it, the Divine Pool suddenly shook violently, and a mighty force burst forth from the pool, radiating from his lower abdomen to his four limbs and eight meridians.

  Boom!

  Lin Xi's body shook, his entire being stiffened, and a strange power enveloped him. In an instant, Lin Xi felt the existence of the entire universe, a strange rule-like power that pierced through layers of space, thundering into his dantian, radiating throughout his body, and merging with his true qi to become one.

  Even more of the rule's power surged into Lin Xi's mind, greatly increasing his soul's strength. His soul became even more solid and less susceptible to attack.

  At the same time, it also opened up the channel between spiritual power and true energy, connecting the two.

  Lin Xi suddenly felt a surge of insight in her heart, she could finally endow the true energy with a special ability, making them possess a kind of power similar to life. As for the source of that life force, it was precisely her own soul!

  The "Expelling Spirit and Creating Creatures" created by the third-level strong cultivator of Qi Refining, is able to regenerate endlessly because it originates from their own soul and spiritual power.

  "We've finally succeeded! We can now summon spirits and create creatures!"

  Lin Xi sighed inwardly.

  That feeling of the soul touching heaven and earth quickly disappeared. The connection between heaven and earth was also completely cut off at the moment of formally entering the driving spirit period. Lin Xi felt that the true energy in his body, which had been full before, became empty again.

  Boom! The space-time gate shook violently, and the endless ancient dragon yuan poured in from the ancient true dragon inside the space-time gate, crazily surging into Lin Xi's body.

  "Hey!"

  The true energy surged, Lin Xi couldn't help but throw his head back and let out a shocking long howl. The aura on his body suddenly increased by several orders of magnitude as the ancient dragon's energy poured in. The majestic true energy circulated within him, rumbling like a river and roaring like ten thousand beasts.

  Lin Xi's current strength was like a rising tide, increasing by more than three times its original height. There was even a faint urge to soar into the sky, ride the wind, and roam freely in and out of the blue expanse.

  This is a sign that the true energy is too thick and heavy, far exceeding the driving spirit period, infinitely approaching the gas fairy period. It can be said that Lin Xi's true energy has fully met the conditions for roaming in space, and the only difference is some subtle trigger and rule power.

  "Whoosh!"

  At the same time, a loud clanking sound of chains sliding, echoed in his mind, Lin Xi felt that the "Purple Chains" that imprisoned the Ancient True Dragon, suddenly loosened two strands, and then fell under Lin Xi's control.

  Lin Xi felt that his control over the Taigu True Dragon had greatly increased. Now, each time he could extract three times more dragon yuan than before.

  However, compared to the tens of thousands of "purple chains" that imprisoned the Ancient True Dragon, the three chains controlled by Lin Xi were still insignificant, and there was still a long way to go before he could completely control this powerful and unmatched Ancient True Dragon, which was comparable to a divine spirit.

  "Ah!"

  Lin Xi's eyes were tightly closed, motionless. At the same time, he silently transported his true energy, circulating it through one cycle after another, continuously stabilizing his realm.

  "The master is really awesome!"

  Under Lin Xi's feet, the Hell Dragon Mòtu was crawling on the ground, with a face of worship and admiration. Just in the last moment, Mòtu felt the aura of the Ancient True Dragon on Lin Xi's body, which had increased by more than three times.

  Lin Xi himself may not feel it, but the Hell Dragon clearly sees that around Lin Xi, the golden ancient dragon's breath is boiling and transforming into countless coiled dragons, thousands and tens of thousands, rotating around his body.

  "Hey!"

  Moto took a deep breath, and immediately a faint, ancient dragon's breath entered his nostrils. As this faint but pure dragon's breath entered his body, the Hellfire Dragon let out a comfortable sigh, its massive black dragon body trembling, with an expression of intoxication on its face.

  The Hell Dragon's body, flesh and blood trembled, the last wound that Lin Xi had previously grabbed also healed. Under its skin, at an astonishing speed, a miraculous dragon scale grew out to cover the injured area.

  These dragon scales are as black as ink, but at the edges, they present a faint golden color. It is indeed the effect of the ancient dragon's breath.

  The Dragon's Breath of Taigu True Dragon has a far greater significance and effect on the dragon tribe than it does on human strongmen.

  The injuries on Mo Tu's body had mostly recovered by now, and his strength was almost back to what it was before he met Lin Xi.

  All around was a deathly silence, with only one person and one dragon standing amidst the lava, quietly cultivating.

  It wasn't clear how much time had passed when Lin Xi was suddenly awakened by a tremor in his arms.

  "It's Shifu's talisman!"

  Lin Xixin was startled in her heart, and suddenly opened her eyes. She stretched out her hand and grabbed a few-inch-long rectangular talisman from her bosom.

  This was left by Qinglian Holy Girl before she left Lin Xi.

  The token is one-way and is for when Qinglian Holy Girl leaves to accurately find Lin Xiuyue.

  However, this is not absolute. When the distance is small to a certain extent, Lin Xi can also feel the existence of Qinglian Holy Girl through the method symbol.

  "Sister Shī and they have encountered trouble."

  Lin Xi's heart skipped a beat violently.

  The fluctuation of the spiritual energy is extremely intense and chaotic. This is a sign that one has fallen into an intense battle, with a drastic consumption of true energy. This indicates that Qinglian Holy Girl is not far away, encountering a powerful enemy.

  "They were surrounded by people and must find their master sisters as soon as possible!"

  Lin Xi's heart sank.

  Qinglian Holy Girl is a strong practitioner of the 7th level of Dao Root, who can already touch the existence of high-grade immortal energy. Such a strong person, if they can't beat them, it's still possible to run away. Only when being surrounded by others will this kind of situation occur where escape is impossible and one falls into a bitter battle.

  Lin Xi's heart was filled with anxiety. However, the law symbol was only one-way.

  Although he could sense through the law symbol's breath that Qinglian Holy Girl had encountered a problem, he couldn't sense her location.

  After all, the law symbols were not refined by him. Moreover, he is not at this level now.

  Although Lin Xi was anxious in her heart, she didn't lose her composure. In a short period of time, thousands and tens of thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind. When one of the thoughts flashed through her mind, Lin Xi's mind suddenly lit up with inspiration, and she had an idea.

  "Motuo, take a sniff and sense the location of the master of the Fa symbol?"

  Lin Xi stretched out his palm and handed over the talisman, which was placed in front of the Hell Dragon's nose as it greedily sucked in the ancient dragon's breath with its eyes closed.

  "Hah!"

  The Hell Dragon was in a state of ecstasy, when suddenly it caught the scent of the talisman, let out a startled snort, and woke up with a fright.
