Chapter 442: Chapter 442 Divine Dragon Transformation_1

Bradley Ford said, “Mr. Xu, if you find it useful, keep it; if not, throwing it away is no big deal.”

“Rest assured, there’s definitely no copy of this cultivation technique in my uncle’s possession. The reason I’m giving it to you is because I couldn’t find anything better to apologize with.”

Greg Jensen fell silent for a moment, carefully examining the contents of the sheepskin scroll before rolling it up again with an indifferent expression, “Well then, I’ll accept it.”

Hearing his words, Bradley Ford breathed a sigh of relief, while Randy Locke’s face showed a look of immense relief.

He laughed bitterly, “To be honest, giving it to you is also a good thing for me; I can finally stop obsessing over it.”

Greg Jensen nodded, squinting his eyes without speaking.

Seeing this, Bradley Ford hurriedly said, “Then we won’t disturb Mr. Xu’s rest any longer.”

“Mr. Xu, we take our leave.”

Randy Locke cupped his hands in a salute and followed Bradley Ford out.

After they had left, Greg Jensen quickly stood up, locked the barrack’s door, and checked the windows before sitting back down at the desk with the sheepskin scroll in hand.

His face was now filled with excitement.

The reason was this: the Divine Dragon Nine Transformations was actually a body refinement cultivation technique—no wonder Randy Locke couldn’t understand it.

Its miraculous aspects were indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary martial artists.

If he hadn’t already stepped into the cultivation path, Greg Jensen, too, would have thought the sheepskin scroll’s contents were the wild fantasies of a fool.

“Divine Dragon Transformation!”

“The first layer is like a drum membrane of leather armor, impervious to the slash of arrows.”

“The second layer is like having skin of copper and bones of iron, fearless of the blade and spear.”

“The third layer allows one to externalize their qi and blood, blocking most physical attacks.”

By the third layer, one is equivalent to an External Sect Grandmaster in the Martial Way, capable of condensing their qi and blood outside the body into an armor-like phantom.

Most physical attacks would be blocked by this phantom.

Should it fail to block, it doesn’t matter—there’s still the copper skin and iron bones underneath.

At the fourth layer, the Blood Armour has formed a tangible existence, summoned at will when needed, and just as easily dismissed when not.

While convenient, its protective power also sees a great enhancement.

The first four layers all involve nurturing oneself with nature’s spiritual energy, achievable with ease as long as one has sufficient spiritual energy.

But from the fifth layer onward, continuing the training requires the rare blood of fierce beasts.

Moreover, it’s only at the fifth layer that Divine Dragon Transformation truly begins to exhibit offensive capabilities.

For example, at the fifth layer, one can choose a body part to mutate, such as transforming an entire arm into a dragon’s claw.

The claw, covered in scales and incredibly hard, with fingers like steel hooks, can puncture through any robust body with ease, leaving gaping holes.

The subsequent layers follow suit, mainly involving changes to one’s own body.

By the legendary ninth layer, one can transform into a true dragon’s body, possessing part of a true dragon’s might.

“Too powerful!”

Though Divine Dragon Nine Transformations may not be as comprehensive as the Yin Yang Harmony Sutra, it is still a rare and unparalleled cultivation technique and complements the Yin Yang Harmony Sutra perfectly.

The Yin Yang Harmony Sutra is a traditional Inner House Immortal Practicing Technique, which also has body refinement elements; levels four, five, and six belong to body refinement.

However, the so-called body refinement of inner cultivation predominantly considers the meridians and strength, not focusing much on the body’s defensive strength.

Yet, the Divine Dragon Nine Transformations perfectly fills this gap.

If Greg Jensen can master it, it would greatly enhance his defensive capabilities.

“As long as there is spiritual energy, I can practice? Elixirs should work as well, right?”

Without a second thought, Greg Jensen took out several Qi and Blood Elixirs he carried with him and popped them into his mouth, then began to cultivate according to the spells of “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations”.

A moment later, he opened his eyes again, filled with joy.

“It really works!”

The Qi and Blood Elixirs didn’t help much with the growth of his True Qi, but their medicinal power had an extraordinary effect on his initial cultivation of the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations”.

Moreover, Greg Jensen also discovered a phenomenon—although his True Qi was cultivated through an Inner House technique, it could still function as Spiritual Energy to nourish his body.

Just now, under the dual action of the medicinal power and the True Qi, in a mere instant, he had completed the first layer of the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations”.

Was it really that simple?

He looked down at his skin and pressed it a few times, finding that his skin had indeed become as clear and translucent as described in the book yet extremely tough.

It was like tanned leather, fit for crafting leather armors and shields.

Ordinary arrows and similar sharp weapons would hardly hurt him unless they hit directly.

Greg Jensen was secretly delighted. After consuming a few more Qi and Blood Elixirs, he continued his practice of the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations”.

However, it proved that he was thinking too much.

No cultivation technique could ever be simple!

Even as a cultivator who had reached the eighth level of Qi Refinement, before the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations”, he was still just a novice.

Starting from the second layer, his bones and muscles began to undergo a transformation, and apart from the heart-wrenching pain, a faint sting could also be felt on his skin.

Greg Jensen instinctively used the Technique of Inner Observation to examine the changes in his flesh and blood.

Not knowing the extent until he saw it, he was scared out of his wits by the observation.

The “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations” not only altered his muscle structure but also broke down and restructured his meridians to make them thicker and more resilient.

This… wouldn’t result in his True Qi exploding inside his body, causing death, would it?

With a sense of trepidation, Greg Jensen speculated: ‘Could it be that the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations” and the “Yin Yang Harmony Technique” cannot be cultivated at the same time?’

This could be the death of him!

Greg Jensen had no choice but to forcefully calm his mind and control his True Qi to lay dormant within his Dantian to prevent it from entering the damaged meridians and causing an overflow of True Qi that might result in an explosive death.

After an unknown amount of time, the “major transformation” of the “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations” was finally completed, and his damaged meridians were fully repaired.

Greg Jensen was amazed to discover that after his meridians had become thicker and tougher, the flow speed of his True Qi was more than twice as fast as before.

This meant that when practicing the Guidance Technique, the speed of refining True Qi was faster; when casting spells, the speed of mobilizing True Qi was also quicker, and the time needed to cast spells was correspondingly reduced.

Overall, after the meridians became thicker and more resilient, his control over True Qi became smoother, and even future alchemy, sword crafting, and Sword Flying would bring tremendous benefits.

This was a huge gain!

Greg Jensen became excited all of a sudden. He gobbled down the Qi and Blood Elixirs, handful after handful, as if they cost nothing, and began the next phase of his cultivation without any care.

…

Dawn broke.

Twin faint sizzling sounds emanated from inside the barracks.

All over Greg Jensen’s body surged out a large amount of black filth.

Marrow Cleansing!

There were such benefits after breaking through the third layer?

Greg Jensen grew even more excited, stood up, and moved around, immediately causing a crackling sound like the popping of beans.

It seemed that his strength had also increased considerably.

Greg Jensen was astonished. He swung his fist and heard a sharp breaking sound rise sharply, reminiscent of a wild beast’s roar, intimidating and captivating.
