Refining the True from the False: Becoming a God Starting with Devouring a True Dragon

Wang Qi looked down into the vacuum.

The denser black mist was as solid as a wall, like a bottomless abyss, constantly radiating black energy outwards.

That's my own body...

At the very center of the dense black mist should be the place where the dragon's energy resides.

There was also a tiny black dragon that remained quietly in place.

That must be the evil energy generated by the practice of the Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts, influenced by the dragon's power...

He walked to the gate of the courtyard and looked at the constables coming and going on the street outside.

All the constables, whether lightly or heavily burdened, were in the same situation.

Enveloped in evil energy, pitch black inside and out.

Looking at Wang Qi,

They looked like individual "Black people" walking down the street.

The areas on these people where the evil energy is most concentrated are their hands or feet, followed by their chest.

This must all be due to practicing the Punishing Evil Sword Technique.

Could there really be so much evil energy within a martial artist's physique...?

No wonder that if one is not careful, one can easily fall into the trap of becoming a demon or monster.

However, precisely because of this,

Only then can one prove their worth.

My Evil-Repelling Sword, infused with the blood of the Moon Dog Demon, can slash away any evil energy emanating from it.

Although it doesn't damage the root cause of the illness, it only treats the symptoms, not the underlying problem.

However, compared to the limited exorcism methods available in Heihe County today, this is already a very precious method.

He didn't believe that Lao Fei of the Incense Cult could be that skilled.

Wang used the Evil-Repelling Sword, smeared with the blood of the Moon Dog demon, to cut away all the evil energy surrounding him.

Then they began cooking the meat and practicing meditation.

The golden dragon awoke and began refining the flesh of the stone bull demon.

Wang Qi's dragon aura trembled.

As if being sculpted, subtle demonic energy was extracted and gradually condensed into the shape of a small black dragon...

now,

Two small black dragons already exist inside Wang Qi's body.

"I wonder what use these black dragons are."

Wang Qi was both worried and expectant.

After all, they were influenced by the dragon's power, and perhaps some kind of positive change will occur.

The blood from the Moon Dog demon at the center of his forehead quickly scabbed over.

Wang Qi's "yin-yang eyes" also disappeared instantly.

He calculated the time.

Each session lasts for about two minutes.

……

Until the sun sets.

Ge Daniu and Lu Shuncai returned.

"Aqi."

Ge Daniu dragged his tired body back, looking quite dejected.

"No success today?"

Wang Qi asked, "Is it better to have no harvest?"

"It was fruitful."

Ge Daniu began, "It wasn't just me; many people benefited... Quite a few saw the followers of the Incense Cult in the alley crossing the street last night. But some people, fearing they would suffer the same fate as Zhou Da, kept it a secret."

"And some people were persuaded by their relatives and friends to stay away."

"I also got a scolding from my second uncle. He said I shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess. He said it involves the county magistrate, and might even involve the military government, it's very complicated..."

"The implications are too great."

Gao Ya chimed in, "My friends in the building all told me too... Quite a few people saw it. But nobody thinks it's the Fragrant Meat Cult."

"They have money, and many of my friends in the building have also donated money. I think this must be a misunderstanding."

Their statements echoed the discussion that took place at the entrance of Zhou University during the day.

Completely opposite.

Some people think it must have been done by the Fragrant Meat Cult, while others think the Fragrant Meat Cult is not short of money and wouldn't do something stupid.

Someone framed him.

Wang Qi was silent for a moment before speaking, "Let the news travel a little longer."

"Oh, right!"

"Brother Da Niu, come here for a second."

Wang Qi realized this and immediately ran into the house to secretly smear the Moon Dog Demon's blood on his forehead to "open his eyes." Then he drew out his peach wood sword, which was smeared with the Moon Dog Demon's blood.

It slashed at Ge Daniu.

boom!

The peach wood sword slashed through, but the black aura emanating from Ge Daniu remained completely still.

So, holding a weapon is really not an option?

Wang Qi remained calm, then returned to the house and took out some Moon Dog Demon Blood from his pouch, smearing it on his fist.

Turn around and enter the courtyard.

Under the astonished gazes of Ge Daniu and Lu Shun, a punch landed on them.

Call ~

Wang Qi immediately punched a large hole in the black mist.

Become!

He increased the force and smashed it towards the black mist.

boom!

This time, the hole was opened even wider.

The effect is remarkable!

Wang Qi finally smiled.

He has finally figured out how to exploit this bug.

Just like when I ate the liver of the Fire-Hiding Bull Demon, I was able to spew out flames as powerful as the Fire-Hiding Bull Demon's.

To use this bug, you must use your own body as a medium.

Nothing else is acceptable.

"And...it seems I'll have to switch to a physical exorcist."

Wang Qi murmured to himself.

The harder his punch, the better its exorcising effect.

To Ge Daniu and Lu Shun's astonishment, he immediately delivered a powerful, almost offensive punch to the two of them.

The evil energy surrounding the two of them was completely dispelled.

"Qi, what are you doing?" Ge Daniu and Lu Shun asked when they saw Wang Qi stop.

"I've recently been learning how to exorcise evil spirits."

Wang Qi replied.

"Do you feel lightheaded and clear-headed now?"

Ge Daniu immediately laughed, "Exorcising evil spirits? With these blood-stained fists?"

He has one head and three question marks.

"But now that you mention it, it does seem a bit refreshing."

"It'll be quick, won't it?" Lu Shun said, pouting. "Let me fan you in the ear instead. I can do it!"

Lu Shun raised his hand, "I can even make your face heat up evenly, believe it or not?"

"Go away, go away..." Ge Daniu waved his hand, looking disgusted.

Lu Shun then changed the subject and teased Wang Qi, "If you can really learn it, that would be great. You can teach me how to exorcise evil spirits then."

"The courtesans in the brothel are constantly asking around to see who has this ability."

"If it works out, I can get a free time with the courtesan."

"You wouldn't believe it, that look, that appearance~"

Lu Shun's heart began to flutter with romantic feelings.

"Are you serious?" Wang Qi asked, intrigued.

"Of course!"

Lu Shun spoke with absolute certainty, "My friends in the building all know this, and they've even recommended quite a few 'knowledgeable' people to me. Unfortunately, I couldn't fool them all."

"Then could you introduce me to someone another day? I'd like to give it a try."

Wang Qi was eager to get started.

"Don't postpone it, let's do it tomorrow!" Lu Shun slapped his thigh.

"There's no harm in giving it a try."

"good!"

Wang Qi was not intimidated, after all, he had genuine talent and learning.

……

Late at night, at the Liu residence.

Figures kept slipping through the small gate of the Liu residence, and then, at the steward's signal, they entered the brightly lit study.

Liu Caiping stood by the window with her hands behind her back, looking at the nine people in front of her.

Zhang Yuan was among them.

Liu Caiping didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Thousands of taels of gold and silver were stolen from the Third Street. A yamen runner from Heihe County was killed in a malicious attack by a madman for providing a clue."

"This incident has had an extremely negative impact."

"If we don't find out who did this, the city will be empty during the winter hunt, and our border city is full of all sorts of people. If there is any panic or chaos, people will surely fall apart. I'm afraid we will face a great disaster."

"There are many more complexities involved, which I won't go into detail about. You are all veterans of this government office, so you should know what I mean."

"All nine of you are renowned for your fairness and adherence to rules within the Third Shift, Sixth Room City Guard. You are also highly skilled individuals, each with your own unique expertise."

"Some people say behind your backs that you are old-fashioned and unsociable... but it is because of people like you that my Heihe County government and I, Liu Caiping, have credibility."

"First of all, I would like to thank you all for your hard work over the years!"

As she spoke, Liu Caiping bowed deeply to the nine people present, clasping her hands in a respectful gesture.

The nine people remained calm and accepted the gifts without batting an eye.

Because when they stepped through that door, they knew that this journey would likely be fraught with peril.

Liu Caiping raised her head, her teeth clenched in anger.

"Relying solely on those 'smooth' people, it's likely that even ten years wouldn't yield any results. We can only rely on you all."

"Therefore, I have summoned you and ordered you to investigate this matter with all your might."

"Four days! Four days!"

"Whoever is behind this, find them out!"

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated and the truth revealed."

"Whatever you need or want, just come and take it from my residence!"

"However, no one can reveal anything before the truth is revealed."

"Whether the matter succeeds or fails, whether the person lives or dies, this magistrate will reward them handsomely afterwards."

"You all need not worry about the future."

The nine people looked at each other and accepted the order in unison.

"yes!"

……

"The blood of the Moon Dog demon can 'open eyes' and amplify the effect of exorcising evil spirits."

"This month, the dog demon is also a 'yang' creature. If I buy some more black dog meat, maybe I can unlock the dog demon's supernatural abilities."

After waking up, Wang Qi had a new idea.

There's not much room for further exploration with the Garlic Great Flavor Demon-Slaying Pill.

This stuff is for internal use only; it can't be given to others.

But can dog meat be seen as the flesh of a demon dog and used internally to exorcise evil spirits?

Could the fire ash grass corresponding to mugwort also be used as a "dipping sauce" for one's fist, just like the blood of the Moon Dog Demon?

He and Lu Shun agreed to go to a brothel in the afternoon.

He planned to make another round of purchases during the day to conduct some experiments.
