Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 348 Fall
With the White Dragon Crystal Core under the control of the Spirit Seal, the Eight-Winged Mechanical Angel became Gao Wu's pet beast.

The White Dragon Crystal Core possesses a high level of icy power, which enhances the Mechanical Angel's source power level but reduces its controllability.

Originally, the eight-winged mechanical angel was driven by the Yin God, but Gao Wu could drive it at will, just like driving another body of his own.

The Spirit Seal, however, is a remote command type, constantly issuing instructions through mental power, with the specific operations being carried out by an eight-winged mechanical angel.

While this simplifies operation, it significantly reduces the precision of the eight-winged mechanical angel's execution.

After all, the remaining spirituality of the dragon soul is too low.

Controlling the mechanical warhorse with the Spirit Seal is easy because the mechanical warhorse is only used for traveling and will not participate in high-level battles.

Simple commands are sufficient for the task.

Riding an eight-winged mechanical angel in battle is a thousand times more complex than controlling a mechanical warhorse.

Gao Wu quickly discovered this huge drawback: while the source power of the eight-winged mechanical angel was enhanced in this state, its combat power decreased by ten or a hundred times.

The higher the level of combat, the more precise and accurate the control and release of energy is required.

A crude release of energy is almost meaningless, unless it's as powerful as a demon god. Even so, a demon god's crude attack still failed to cause any real damage.

Gao Wu tried to use Yin Shen to directly control the Spirit Control Seal.

The Yin spirit is controlled through the Spirit Control Seal. With the Spirit Control Seal as an intermediary, the control becomes more complicated, but the controllability is reduced by about 30%.

Gao Wu tried to control the eight-winged mechanical angel in battle. Despite having stronger source power, he found it more difficult to fight other dragons in the Nine Star Dragon Ball space.

After several attempts, the eight-winged mechanical angel was almost burned to scrap metal by the fire dragon.

Gao Wu realized that this situation wouldn't work, so he could only try to use the Divine Light of Departing Fire to refine the Dragon Soul Crystal Core again.

A fierce crimson light blazed, and the dragon soul within the crystal core struggled and danced incessantly.

A wisp of spirituality was not even enough to take form; it was merely a white phantom.

After several days of tempering, the dragon soul's spirituality was on the verge of collapse. Instinctively, it tried to escape but was completely sealed inside a tiny space by the crystal core.

The divine light of fire refines the soul within, specifically countering such a spiritual magnetic field.

The dragon's spirit had nowhere to hide and ultimately vanished into nothingness amidst the crimson light.

Without the dragon soul's spirituality, the crystal core is completely controlled by the Yin God.

This crystal core also merged with the source energy center of the eight-winged mechanical angel.

The source energy center created by the Qilin King has the property of devouring other energies. This must have been specially designed by the Qilin King.

The White Raven King's divine power can also create wondrous objects with devouring properties, demonstrating that this kind of low-level energy conversion is very easy for demon gods.

After the dragon crystal is transformed through the energy center, it can be continuously fused. This is the fundamental reason why it takes so much trouble to go through the entire process.

Gao Wu once obtained the power to control ice from the level eight Fish-Dragon Golden Elixir, which he then incorporated into the changes of the Divine Dragon Path.

The fused white dragon crystal perfectly corresponds to the Divine Dragon Path's control over ice transformations. At the same time, it retains the vibrational abilities of the eight-winged mechanical angel, greatly enhancing the mechanical angel's combat power.

Through these repeated trials and tribulations, Gao Wu also underwent a process of learning and improvement.

We will re-analyze, recognize, and understand the source power, divine power, yin spirit, and divine incantation.

Although his personal attributes did not increase directly, his martial arts cultivation improved significantly.

In particular, the White Dragon corresponds to the Nine Dragons Limitless Path, allowing Gao Wu to see how exotic beasts wield power. This mutual reference was very enlightening for him.

After all, he also has 31 points of innate talent, and with the blessing of the Divine Hero Mantra, he can reach the level of an unparalleled genius.

Over the next few days, Gao Wu piloted the eight-winged mechanical angel in battle against the red dragon. He learned the theory and tested it through practical combat, resulting in remarkable progress in the Nine Dragons Limitless Path. Gao Wu didn't use the Crimson Sky Sword to kill the dragon soul because it consumed too much energy. More importantly, he wanted to use the dragon soul to hone his martial arts skills.

Having fused with the White Dragon Crystal Core, it also has a significant advantage against the Red Dragon.

Ice and fire are mutually exclusive. Although his total source power is far less than that of the Red Dragon, he has the advantage of being able to accurately and efficiently deploy source power.

Without strong spiritual power, ninety percent of the Red Dragon's source energy would be wasted.

Crimson flames spewed forth continuously as the massive red dragon chased the eight-winged mechanical angel, much like a giant serpent pursuing a bird.

The burning source energy seemed to ignite the entire world, with flames raging everywhere. Yet, the eight-winged mechanical angel moved freely through the sea of ​​fire, evading the red dragon's attacks at will.

Although the red dragon's source power was strong, it was showing signs of fatigue from such constant consumption.

Its crimson eyes were dull and lifeless, and the crimson light shimmering on its scales was almost nonexistent.

Driven by spiritual instinct, the red dragon, whose source energy was about to be exhausted, prepared to retreat back to its lair in the volcano.

Gao Wu seized the opportunity to ride his eight-winged mechanical angel to block the red dragon's path. Upon seeing its target, the red dragon instinctively opened its mouth and spewed flames again.

The red dragon was exceptionally skilled at this, gathering endless source power through the source power core deep within its head, and then transforming it into flames through a special organ in its throat.

Gao Wu had been fighting the Red Dragon for several days and was already very familiar with its source energy conversion process.

This is the opportunity he's been waiting for.

Exhaustion caused the fire dragon to operate somewhat sluggishly. The eight-winged mechanical angel, which had been prepared in advance, activated its eight blades to converge into a longsword, which shot out at high speed with a strong icy source force, instantly hitting the fireball that had just condensed in the red dragon's throat.

This sword strike was precise and swift, and even more impressive was the intense icy power that penetrated the fireball through the blade.

The two opposing source forces clashed violently. The red dragon had no intelligence and only relied on instinct to unleash its source forces, which only made the out-of-control source forces erupt more and more violently.

The fiery energy surged violently, tearing apart the red dragon's muscles and blood vessels, instantly severing its long neck.

The eight swords that had been blasted away returned to the mechanical angel's back. After readjusting their source power, the eight swords condensed again into a rotating sword wheel and slashed into the giant dragon's head.

Without the protection of source energy, the massive, hard dragon head only lasted half a second before being shredded in two by the vibrating, spinning sword wheel...

This is the end of the battle.

Gao Wu was quite satisfied with the battle; everything went as expected.

That's how it is with creatures without intelligence; once their secrets are figured out and they have ways to control them, their defeat is only a matter of time.

After obtaining the Red Dragon Crystal Core, I refined and integrated it into the Eight-Winged Mechanical Angel using the same method.

It combines the transformations of ice and fire, elevating the power level of the eight-winged mechanical angel. Crucially, the convergence of ice and fire can generate various transformations, perfectly aligning with the Divine Dragon Path.

Once this step is taken, killing the other seven dragon souls will be much easier.

By mid-April, when the ice and snow had melted, Gao Wu had already slain all nine dragon souls and integrated all nine types of dragon crystals into the eight-winged mechanical angel.

The nine types of dragon crystals subtly correspond to the Nine Dragons Limitless Dao. These two months of cultivation have not only enhanced the power of the eight-winged mechanical angel, but more importantly, they have improved Gao Wu's understanding of the Nine Dragons Limitless Dao.

In his opinion, if he could meditate for another two or three months and thoroughly understand everything he had learned, he would be able to elevate the Nine Dragons Limitless Path to a perfect level.

At that time, condensing the source energy core will be a piece of cake!

Just as Gao Wu was about to make a final push to reach level seven, he received a message from Qin Liuhe.

"Something has happened on Dongwei Island. The Federation colluded with the Demon God to perform a blood sacrifice, opening a spatial channel that turned Dongwei Island into a vast secret realm, trapping tens of millions of people inside, including your master..."
