Journey to the West: The Demon Emperor

Chapter 53: The Pond Dries Up, Spring Appears

"Uh-huh!!!"

Faced with Princess Halloween’s disregard, Little White Dragon felt a little disappointed.

After all, he really liked Princess Halloween and really wanted to marry her into the Dragon Palace of the West Sea.

But Princess Halloween's choice just now made him realize that Princess Halloween and he were not of the same mind, which made Xiaobailong feel a little uncomfortable.

With complicated emotions, the little white dragon no longer had the intention to continue comforting Ao Mo. He also took his "Ancestral Dragon Order" and entered the Dragon Gate.

As for the Ao Mo brothers, after a period of helpless rage, they snatched two "Earth-level Ancestral Dragon Orders" from other dragons and entered the Earth-level Dragon Transformation Pool.

………………

On the other hand, Li Yang certainly didn’t know what happened after he entered Longmen, nor did he have the mind to pay attention to it.

At this moment, after entering the Dragon Pond, he found himself in a new space.

In this space, there are pools of different sizes.

Sensing the water in the pool below, Li Yang felt a desire emanating from his blood.

"Uh-huh!!!"

Following the guidance of the "Ancestral Dragon Order" in his hand, Li Yang came directly to the largest "Dragon Pool" located in the center of the space.

Although there are three heavenly-level "Dragon Pools" in this space, there are gaps between these three "Dragon Pools".

As the first person to pass through the "Dragon Gate", Li Yang naturally obtained the best "Ancestral Dragon Order".

"Pfft!!!"

At this moment, Li Yang looked at the "Dragon Pool" with a diameter of over 100 meters in front of him and could no longer bear the desire from his blood.

"hold head high!!!"

What Li Yang didn't expect was that as soon as he entered the "Dragon Transformation Pool", he uncontrollably manifested his dragon body.

"Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! ..."

At the same time, the water in the "Dragon Pool" also rioted, and the inexplicable energy contained in it began to rush into Li Yang's body.

Faced with these mysterious energies, the speed of the "Dragon Transformation Art" that had been running slowly in Li Yang's body suddenly changed dramatically.

At this moment, Li Yang only saw the progress displayed on the white jade slab corresponding to the "Dragon Transformation Art" in the "Upper Demon Mansion" began to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This discovery prompted Li Yang to immediately devote all his strength to promoting the operation of the "Dragon Transformation Art" in his body, continuously refining the surging water from the "Dragon Transformation Pool".

"Boom!!!"

Just as Li Yang was constantly refining the unknown energy in the pool water, the "Ancestral Dragon Order" he was carrying automatically separated from his body and floated just above the "Dragon Transformation Pool".

"boom!!!"

The next second, the purple light on the "Ancestral Dragon Order" became stronger and turned into a protective shield, which firmly protected the "Dragon Pool" where Li Yang was, preventing others from disturbing Li Yang's practice.

When Princess Halloween and others entered this space and saw this scene, they realized that Li Yang had already started practicing.

"Kakaka..."

Time passed quickly while Li Yang was immersed in cultivation.

When Li Yang woke up again, he found that his "Dragon Transformation Art" had reached the second level of perfection.

As Li Yang chose to accept the results of hanging up, his dragon body immediately began to transform from three toes to four toes.

The blood-colored dragon scales on its body began to fall off one by one, revealing the pink flesh underneath.

At the same time, Li Yang discovered that the bones in his body were breaking, shattering, and reorganizing one by one.

"Roar!!!" The excruciating pain of everything coming back to life made Li Yang roar uncontrollably. His body subconsciously tumbled over and over, causing the water in the "Dragon Pool" to surge.

Just like that, after an unknown amount of time, when Li Yang felt the severe pain in his body finally began to subside, he discovered that a layer of blood-red scales had grown back on his body at some point.

Compared to before the metamorphosis, the new scales are bright red, as if blood is about to drip from them.

Li Yang raised the dragon claw and looked at the four sharp and ferocious dragon toes on it. He understood that he had successfully transformed his bloodline into a "four-toed dragon".

However, when Li Yang looked at the six "golden wings" behind him that had not changed at all, he knew that this level was not enough.

The six "golden wings" behind Li Yang represent the "Great Sun Golden Crow bloodline" in his body.

The fact that the golden wings remain unchanged means that Li Yang's own bloodline is still not comparable to the "Great Sun Golden Crow Bloodline", and he cannot perfectly reshape the bloodline in his body.

Fortunately, there is still a lot of unknown energy in the "Dragon Pool" at this moment, and Li Yang still has the opportunity to push his bloodline to the level of a "five-toed true dragon".

"boom!!!"

Closing his eyes again, Li Yang began to practice the "Dragon Transformation Art" with all his strength, absorbing the energy from the pool water and promoting the evolution of the dragon blood in his body.

Compared to the practice of the second level of "The Art of Dragon Transformation", the energy required for each improvement in the third level of "The Art of Dragon Transformation" has increased by more than ten times.

At this moment, Li Yang was particularly glad that he had come to this secret place.

Otherwise, if he wants to completely master the "Dragon Transformation Art" by his own ability, it will probably take a long time.

………………

As Li Yang continued to practice, the water in the "Dragon Transformation Pond" where he was located was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yang suddenly felt that his cultivation speed had slowed down dramatically.

When he opened his eyes, he found that he was lying at the bottom of the Hualong Pond and all the water in the pond had disappeared.

"Daoist Secret: "The Secret of Transforming into a Dragon""

"Progress: Third level (49%)"

"Status: On-hook..."

Looking at the information displayed on the white jade slab, Li Yang frowned as he saw that the progress of the third level of "The Art of Transformation into a Dragon" was not even halfway through.

He hadn't imagined that the third level of "Dragon Transformation Art" would be so difficult to practice, and that a heavenly-grade "Dragon Transformation Pool" could only achieve this level.

Although he felt a little helpless, Li Yang had no choice but to accept it.

"what?"

Just as Li Yang was about to leave, he saw a new drop of Hualong Pond water suddenly emerge from the center of the "Hualong Pond".

"Is this... a spring?"

Li Yang stared quietly for a moment, and sure enough, he found another drop of pool water coming out from there.

However, although Li Yang confirmed his guess, he did not feel much joy.

After all, judging from the speed at which the water in the pond was bubbling up, if Li Yang wanted to perfect the "Dragon Transformation Art", he would probably have to wait tens of thousands of years.

How could Li Yang stay here for such a long time?

However, although the water in the pool was coming out slowly, a new idea came into Li Yang's mind.

That is, he was going to see if there was more Hualongchi water hidden deep in the spring.

If it is really found, there will be no doubt that it will transform into a five-toed true dragon.
