Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 166 Alone as the Divine Dragon
The Azure Dragon roared and roamed the heavens, causing wind and thunder to erupt, the sea of ​​clouds to tremble, and the sun and moon to change color...

Gao Wu felt that he could unleash boundless divine power with every breath, as if all things in heaven and earth were under his control.

Such overwhelming divine power filled him with immense pleasure and satisfaction...

Thousands of miles away, Song Mingyue was meditating on the Heavenly Serpent Dharma Image when she suddenly felt a sensation and vaguely saw a divine blue dragon flying and roaring in the clouds, which caused her Heavenly Serpent Dharma Image to also move.

"It was Gao Wu's special talent that caused this dramatic change, allowing him to resonate with me from thousands of miles away..."

Song Mingyue suddenly understood. She could sense that the Azure Dragon was bursting with endless vitality, as vast as a boundless sea, yet extremely pure and agile as a god.

She didn't know how Gao Wu did it, but she knew that this resonance was good for both of them, so she immediately relaxed her mind and let the Cold Netherworld Serpent and Gao Wu's Azure Dragon Divine Image resonate naturally.

The so-called spiritual resonance between the two has never actually involved any specific cultivation method. It mainly involves the entanglement of their spiritual powers.

For those skilled in martial arts, this kind of dual cultivation is actually just about honing their spiritual power; it doesn't have much practical effect on their cultivation level.

Song Mingyue, however, relied heavily on the spiritual resonance between the two. Her Frosty Heavenly Serpent Divine Form was powerful, but the condensed Frosty Death Qi posed a great danger to her.

Even after starting over and correcting many problems in her cultivation techniques, her cultivation became more refined, and the cold, deathly aura became more intense, causing some damage to her physical and mental well-being.

Thanks to the inexhaustible vitality of the Azure Dragon Divine Form, Gao Wu was able to not only dissolve the deathly aura of the Frosty Heavenly Serpent, but also nurture the serpent's spirituality, her mental strength, and even her physical body, thus laying an exceptionally solid and stable foundation for her.

She was able to advance to the rank of advanced warrior because she resonated with the spirit of high martial arts every day. Her Heavenly Serpent Divine Appearance had reached maturity. With the guidance and resources of her master Lu Yuan, she easily completed the advancement.

Gao Wu has been gone for over a month. Although the two can occasionally establish a connection through spiritual resonance, they are no longer able to cultivate their spiritual power due to the great distance between them.

Song Mingyue has been practicing with Lu Yuan every day recently, and her cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds. She already had extremely high talent in martial arts, but in the past, she always had many things she couldn't understand when she tried to cultivate on her own.

With the guidance of a martial arts master, these obstacles become as clear as a windowpane, and then everything becomes clear, opening up a new world.

Without the spiritual resonance of Gao Wu, Song Mingyue was able to bury herself in cultivating the Frost Netherworld Serpent, making great progress. In just one month, she had already condensed two acupoints.

We're not far from opening the sixth acupoint.

Her rapid progress is based on the fact that her mental power has long reached the level of a martial arts master. As long as she masters the correct method to transform source power, none of this will be difficult.

The sudden spiritual resonance with Gao Wu drew her Cold Netherworld Serpent in, allowing them to dance together despite being thousands of miles apart.

Perhaps because of the great distance, this mysterious spiritual resonance is presented very clearly and is exceptionally stable.

Song Mingyue and Gao Wu simultaneously noticed the change in their spiritual resonance. Through the connection between the Azure Dragon and the Heavenly Serpent Divine Image, their minds naturally entered a deeper state of harmony.

The Azure Dragon and the Heavenly Serpent naturally intertwined...

As the Azure Dragon's power continued to grow, the Heavenly Serpent Divine Form also soared straight into the heavens, bathed in wind and thunder.

The celestial serpent's divine form continued to grow due to this strange change, and its white scales fell off piece by piece, only to be replaced by shimmering silver scales.

Gao Wu observed the changes in the Heavenly Serpent Divine Appearance through spiritual resonance. He didn't know why there was such a change, but he felt that the white snake's silver scales were more beautiful, with a crystal-clear beauty like silver crystal.

The changes in the Frosty Heavenly Serpent, in turn, intertwined even more closely with the Giant Azure Dragon, and the spiritual power of both sides entered into a deeper connection.

Previously, the connection between two parties was through voice calls; now, with 5G connectivity, simultaneous video calls are possible… This represents a qualitative breakthrough in information exchange.

The actual mental connection is, of course, very complex, even mysterious, and completely different from online communication. Neither Gao Wu nor Song Mingyue could explain the details clearly.

In this state, both Gao Wu and Song Mingyue felt a long and endless joy.

It was as if the world consisted of only the two of them, protecting each other as one. And with yin and yang forming a circle, they created their own world.

This wondrous state seems capable of lasting until the very end of time…

After an unknown amount of time, Song Mingyue finally woke up from her deep joy. She saw a faint white light outside the curtains, which must have been a little after seven in the morning.

She entered a meditative state for about seven hours at a time, and the key point is that she did not feel the passage of time at all, nor did she feel tired.

On the contrary, Song Mingyue felt better than ever before. The Cold Netherworld Serpent God was curled up in a ball deep in her brow, resting quietly, its body shining with a clear, pure, and cold white light.

She didn't need to test it to know that the Frost Serpent had completed a transformation and taken a big step forward in its mental power.

Previously, her mental strength was equivalent to that of a martial arts master, so now it should be equivalent to that of a martial arts grandmaster.

Song Mingyue was both surprised and delighted. Martial arts masters are actually divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced, and are generally classified according to source power and spiritual power.

She essentially leaped two levels, achieving a leap in her realm.

As for why this happened, it was mainly due to the guidance of Gao Wu's Azure Dragon Divine Image, which led to his breakthrough without him even realizing it.

She knew that Gao Wu Qinglong was a divine being with extraordinary abilities, and that he was particularly compatible with her Hanming Tianshe. However, the fact that he suddenly achieved a breakthrough in spiritual power really surprised her.

After sitting on the bed for a while, Song Mingyue guessed that it was mainly Gao Wu's breakthrough in spiritual power that brought her to a breakthrough as well.

She originally wanted to contact Gao Wu through spiritual resonance, but was afraid of disturbing him, so she sent a message via Fetion on her mobile phone: "Contact me when you wake up."

Before Song Mingyue could even put down her phone, she sensed a connection established between Gao Wu's spiritual power and her. Of course, she could refuse this connection.

Similarly, Gao Wu can also actively sever the connection with her. The spiritual resonance between the two is actually primarily Gao Wu's; Gao Wu is like the operator. She can turn off her phone, but Gao Wu can still determine her location through resonance, only he cannot enter her mental world.

“It’s quite convenient to chat like this, hehe…” In Song Mingyue’s mental world, there was not only Gao Wu’s voice, but also his physical appearance.

It looks like a 3D projection, somewhat illusory, yet it can accurately project Gao Wu's emotional state.

Her mental projection naturally solidified into her original form, allowing her to speak face-to-face with Gao Wu.

"How are you?" Song Mingyue asked.

Gao Wu knew what Song Mingyue meant; she was actually asking about the strange events of last night. However, she preferred to be concise, so she explained it very simply.

He laughed heartily: "I suddenly had an epiphany, and my divine skill has been mastered. How about you?"

"My mental strength has been upgraded."

Song Mingyue said softly, "Thank you."

Gao Wu waved his hand: "Birds fly high when they follow the phoenix, and people's character improves when they associate with the virtuous. Just follow me and learn well, it will be enough for a lifetime..."

Song Mingyue nodded earnestly.

Gao Wu couldn't help but touch Song Mingyue's face, although it was all a mental projection and he couldn't actually touch her.

"Just kidding, we're best friends who've been through thick and thin together. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. Even you're mine now, so why are you being so polite!"

Song Mingyue asked softly, "When are you coming back?"

"You missed me?" Gao Wu asked with a grin.

Song Mingyue nodded slightly. Gao Wu couldn't smile anymore. At this moment, he truly felt Song Mingyue's longing for him. It wasn't because of any breakthrough in spiritual power, nor for anything else; it was simply her longing for him.

When one person misses another, it should be that simple and pure.

"Your spiritual power has broken through. First, consolidate it and then consult with Master Lu about cultivation methods."

Gao Wu said earnestly, "Come find me in another month, and we'll go to the secret realm together to hone our martial arts."

"You're not good at real combat anyway, so you need to accumulate experience in real combat."

"Mmm," Song Mingyue responded softly.

"Good girl." Gao Wu grinned and hugged Song Mingyue again, "Let me give you a kiss..."

Emerging from the spiritual resonance, Gao Wu was somewhat excited. He hadn't seen Xiao Song for a month, and seeing him again through this spiritual connection made him very happy.

How can a young man be without a beautiful and gentle female classmate? That kind of youth would be too incomplete... The most touching feelings are those that are both distant and close.

Like him and Xiao Song, their situation is neither too mundane nor too boring; this is the best state to be in.

Gao Wu savored the pleasant time they spent together for a while before opening the Book of Boundless Merit.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra has been elevated to its perfect state.

His physique suddenly jumped to 25 points, meaning his physique improved 7.5 times. Even if he were smashed to pieces, he could probably survive!

In reality, it's probably not possible. Physique is a complex concept involving multiple aspects. The increase of 7.5 times cannot be simply calculated as doubling.

In his view, the simplest and most intuitive thing should be that his vitality increases by 7.5 times. In the easiest way to understand this concept, it's like his health bar increases.

If it used to be 1,000 HP, now it's 7,500 HP.

Of course, this is just an analogy. In reality, it's much more complex; his endurance and other aspects have been greatly improved.

The most direct data reflection is that his lifespan increased to 300 years.

Such a significant improvement still requires him to continuously explore in order to truly grasp the actual state of his own physique.

Looking at the Swift Thunder and Gale Transformation, it can condense ten layers of divine spells at once, which means that spirit and agility can be increased by 7.5 times in an instant, which is also very exaggerated.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra at the perfect level condenses an increasingly larger and more majestic Azure Dragon divine form, even possessing the divine power to rule over all things.

All three acupoints are closely related to the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra, and as the mantra is upgraded, all three acupoints receive certain benefits.

In particular, the acupoint between the eyebrows is the location where the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra is condensed, and it is most closely related to the mantra. This time, the blue eight-pointed star light in the acupoint between the eyebrows is brighter and stronger, and the circulation of source power has increased by nearly 50%.

This one acupoint should have a source energy value of 9,000... This is an extremely large increase.

Almost no martial artist could reach this level through martial arts training.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra has demonstrated extraordinary power in this regard...

Gao Wu glanced at the changes brought about by the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation and was extremely satisfied. Now, all the heroes of the world were like crucian carp, while he alone was the divine dragon!
Oh, and there's Xiao Song, I guess she's a little dragon...
