Inside the third space, there was something twice as large as it had been a few years ago, with a body as thick as a banyan tree that had been there for hundreds of years.

Please forgive me, but with such a massive body, calling it a python seems inaccurate.

But for the sake of easier understanding, let's just call it a python.

The scene inside the third space was almost identical to the valley where Lin Yaoxie encountered the giant python. The super python was flicking its forked tongue, hanging itself from several large trees, its body trembling slowly but at a high frequency.

The giant python was undergoing its countless molts. In its years in the Third Space, it had molted at least a hundred times. But none of those molts were as extraordinary as this one.

Only during this molting process did its body, after shedding its old skin, reveal a faint golden hue.

Moreover, it was only during this molting process that the python's withered face and eerie hissing voice truly conveyed the complex emotions of impatience and pain intertwined.

On a small hill directly opposite the giant python shedding its skin, Lin Yaoxie stood with his hands behind his back.

He muttered to himself in a very low voice, "I never imagined that the giant python would have reached the point of becoming a dragon. When I came to see it half a month ago, it didn't show the slightest sign of it."

I thought about it.

Lin Yaoxie waved his hand, and half a black ball appeared in his hand.

As soon as the black ball appeared, the giant python, which had been focused on shedding its skin, suddenly jolted awake. Its eyes, as big as light bulbs, stared towards the mountaintop.

Upon seeing the black ball, the vertical pupils of those eyes twitched violently several times, and the fangs, flickering wildly, gleamed with a sharp, cold light.

But then it immediately saw Lin Yaoxie, who was controlling the black ball, and its greedy eyes gradually subsided.

Having spent so many years in the Third Space, the giant python had long since learned its lesson. In its eyes, Lin Yaoxie was like a deity, someone to be worshipped but not profaned.

Seeing the giant python return to its molting state and quiet down, Lin Yaoxie nodded in satisfaction.

Lin Yaoxie stared at the black energy ball and muttered to himself, "Didn't you say that there's very little spiritual energy in the world of Condor Heroes? Since there's so little spiritual energy, how could Guo Jing, a mere mortal, cultivate his internal energy? Although it's called the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, does it really possess the power to subdue dragons and contain the aura of a true dragon?"

"The chosen one, the dragon's aura is directed towards him, he is embraced by all people, the dragon's aura shall return!" The system said after a moment of silence.

Lin Yaoxie frowned slightly. "The chosen one" means that Guo Jing is the protagonist of this world, so he has dragon energy? And Guo Jing is supported by all the people, so he will unintentionally absorb dragon energy?

quite a while.

Lin Yaoxie chuckled and shook his head. Whoever you are, I'll just kill you with a single sword strike when I need to.

Then Lin Yaoxie turned his gaze to the enormous python. Since the python was about to evolve into a dragon and was even stirring under the influence of the True Dragon Qi, he decided to inject the True Dragon Qi into its body to give it a helping hand.

Thinking of this, Lin Yaoxie threw the black energy ball in his hand toward the giant python that had raised its head.

The giant python seemed to sense something, and with a heart full of longing and anticipation, it twisted its body and flicked its large tail.

With a 'crackling' sound, the several large trees supporting its massive body snapped in half.

The giant python sprang up, its gray-black skin peeling off, and at the same time, its body soared into the air, like a golden light, heading towards the black energy ball falling from the sky.

Lin Yaoxie always has a perfect grasp of details.

He threw the energy ball over only after he noticed that the python had finished molting.

The grayish-black part is the shed python skin, while the pale golden body that rises into the air is the python's body after shedding its skin.

The giant python opened its mouth wide, its two foot-long fangs gleaming with a chilling light, and the small sphere slammed into its mouth.

The scene of a snake swallowing an egg has been shown in animal documentaries. The already small black ball looked like a pebble in the python's esophagus, which resembled the trunk of a giant tree.

After swallowing the energy ball, the giant python writhed and rolled in agony, turning the entire valley into chaos.

A golden light enveloped the giant snake, which then quieted down, lying motionless on the ground. After a moment, it transformed into a giant golden egg?

Lin Yaoxie focused his attention and wondered if this was the rhythm of evolution.

"This python is evolving into a dragon, which will take thirty years," the system explained.

Hearing this, Lin Yaoxie was a little annoyed. Why did it take so long? He had originally wanted to ride the dragon and soar between heaven and earth.

"It naturally takes a great deal of time for a python to become a spirit, a jiao to become a demon, and a dragon to become a god," the system said.

Chapter 80: Returning to Xiangyang City [First Update]

P.S.: I was too tired yesterday and also revising the outline, so it was only one update. Today I will resume the four updates a day as I mentioned last time. Thank you for your support.

----------------

If it weren't for being in the system space, a world rich in spiritual energy, and having consumed the energy ball containing the power of a true dragon, it would have taken this giant python much longer to truly transform into a dragon.

With these things now in place, the time needed for the giant python has been greatly reduced, leaving Lin Yaoxie speechless.

The next day.

On the shore of the East China Sea.

Lin Yaoxie stood shirtless in the waves, letting the waves crash against him, feeling the immense power of nature. With the help of the waves, he practiced his mental cultivation technique again and again.

To be honest, this method is really good. While enduring the impact of the waves, you can also circulate your inner energy, which makes progress very fast and makes the sword energy in your body purer.

"My physique isn't very good, sigh. Although sword immortals are known for their ultimate attack, their defense is indeed not very good, especially their bodies. It seems I need to think of a way." Lin Yaoxie frowned as he resisted the waves. Although he seemed to be completely still, he knew it was because he was using his sword power.

Thinking of this, Lin Yaoxie couldn't help but think of the Golden Wheel Monk's Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill, a skill that claimed to make one's physique strong and powerful like a dragon and an elephant after cultivation. Each level of the skill had the power of a dragon and an elephant, and it was said that a single punch could deliver the force of a thousand catties.

"It seems I have to make a trip to the Western Regions Tantric Sect. This Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique is just what I need right now." Lin Yaoxie thought to himself. Although he had sword energy protecting him, it was not his own physical defense. If someone broke through his sword energy protection, wouldn't he suffer a great loss if he had no defense at all?

Therefore, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique is still very necessary, especially for tempering the body and refining the physical form.

……

Tibetan Tantric Land

Lin Yaoxie, alone with his sword, stormed into the place, rampaging and domineering, slaying the monks with his sword, seizing the Dragon Elephant Divine Skill, and then drifting away.

After seizing the Dragon Elephant Prayer Technique, Lin Yaoxie returned to the Guo Mansion in Xiangyang, only to be greeted by the icy Huang Rong.

"Master's wife..." Lin Yao called out with a wicked smile.

However, Huang Rong stared intently at Lin Yaoxie, and said in a somewhat cold tone, "Did you cripple your teacher's martial arts?"

"Hmm?" A smile appeared on Lin Yaoxie's lips as he said calmly, "This was an accident. I made a mistake during my duel with my teacher, which caused this."

Huang Rong wouldn't believe such nonsense, but for some reason, she swallowed her anger and didn't say anything more.

Seeing this, Lin Yaoxie said nothing more, stepped aside to avoid Huang Rong, and walked towards his room. He was still waiting to try the Dragon Elephant Rinpoche Technique.

Back in his room, Lin Yaoxie began to comprehend the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique.

The Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill has thirteen levels, but historically, the highest level ever achieved was only the tenth level, and that was by the Golden Wheel Monk in the original story. The current Golden Wheel Monk, who has already died, has only reached the eighth level; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so easily killed by Lin Yaoxie.

The Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill is divided into thirteen levels. The first level is very simple; even a person of low intelligence can master it within one or two years with instruction. The second level is twice as difficult as the first, requiring three or four years. The third level is again twice as difficult as the second, requiring seven or eight years. This difficulty increases exponentially, becoming increasingly challenging with each subsequent level. Reaching the fifth level and beyond often requires over thirty years of arduous practice. Throughout history, the Tantric school has produced numerous eminent monks and extraordinary individuals, yet no one has ever reached more than ten levels of the thirteen-level Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill.

This skill is developed step by step, and there is absolutely no reason why it cannot be mastered. If someone lives to be a thousand years old, they will eventually reach the thirteenth level and possess the power of the "Thirteen Dragons" and "Thirteen Elephants". However, human lifespan is limited. If high monks and cultivators in Tantric Buddhism want to reach the seventh or eighth level before the end of their natural lifespan, they must be impatient. This often leads them into the great danger of being too hasty and not achieving their goal.

But Lin Yaoxie didn't believe in this nonsense. He was determined to master the so-called thirteenth level that no one had ever reached before. However, cultivating the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique was really troublesome. The first few levels were easy to manage, but the later levels required specific conditions to be mastered.

For example, the ocean, where one can temper their body with the force of the waves, or a place swept by a raging storm, where one can cultivate their lower body foundation... and so on.

Lin Yaoxie shook his head. This is really troublesome. Never mind, I'll practice the first few levels first. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, put his hands together, and silently recited the Dragon Elephant Heart Sutra.

……

the next day.

Lin Yaoxie woke up from his cultivation with a strange expression. He even doubted whether he was practicing the Dragon Elephant Technique. Wasn't it said that it would take ten years to master the first three levels? How come he mastered it in just one night?

If Lin Yaoxie hadn't felt a significant increase in his physical strength and power, he would have almost doubted whether he had stolen a fake manual.

"Young Master." A clear and melodious voice rang out from the doorway at that moment.

Lin Yaoxie shook his head, dismissed the thought in his mind, stood up, and casually opened the door. There he saw Lu Wushuang, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Young Master, did I disturb you?" Lu Wushuang stood gracefully at the door, blinking her big eyes as she looked at Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie chuckled and patted Lu Wushuang's head, saying, "It's too late to bother you. What's up? Did you need something?"

"It's nothing. I just heard Chief Huang say you were back while I was eating breakfast this morning, so I wanted to come and see you." Lu Wushuang said with a smile, but in her heart she sighed. When she heard the news of Lin Yaoxie's return, she was overjoyed, but in front of Lin Yaoxie, she couldn't say what was on her mind.

Hearing this, Lin Yao smiled and nodded. How could he not see through the girl's thoughts? But he didn't have that idea for the time being. What he wanted to do now was to practice the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill to the thirteenth level.

"Young Master, did you cripple Master Guo's martial arts? This morning, when he heard the news of your return, Master Guo's face was very grim and gloomy." At this moment, Lu Wushuang asked in a low voice. This morning at lunch, when Guo Jing heard the news of Lin Yaoxie's return, his expression was really complicated. He had anger, hatred, annoyance, and killing intent, but there was no joy!

Lin Yaoxie sneered. Guo Jing's expression was naturally not good, after all, he had indeed been crippled by him. However, his plan was about to be implemented, and then Guo Jing could rest in peace.

Chapter 81: I'd Be a Tomboy for You

Guo Jing was indeed his master, but Lin Yaoxie only acknowledged him as his master to complete a mission. Now that the mission was accomplished, he no longer needed to care.

Since he could cripple Guo Jing's martial arts, he was even less concerned about killing him. After all, Guo Jing had lost his value to him.

But now is not the time to completely turn against Guo Jing; the time is not yet ripe.

Lin Yaoxie glanced at Lu Wushuang and smiled faintly: "There are some things you don't need to know, and you don't need to ask. Just remember to always be loyal to your young master, that's enough."

Lu Wushuang's face flushed slightly as she poured Lin Yaoxie a cup of tea and said in a low voice, "Of course, young master, you can rest assured."

Seeing Lu Wushuang holding the cup in her hands, Lin Yaoxie reached out and took it from her. When their hands met, Lu Wushuang's face turned even redder, but Lin Yaoxie didn't seem to care at all.

Lin Yaoxie has feelings for Lu Wushuang, but now is not the time, because he needs to assign some tasks to Lu Wushuang.

After taking a sip of tea, Lin Yaoxie suddenly said, "Wushuang, I have something I need you to do. I wonder if you can handle it?"

Lu Wushuang stood up straight: "Young Master, just say it. You saved my life, and I would gladly give my life for you."

Seeing Lu Wushuang's face turn from shy to excited, her cheeks flushed, Lin Yaoxie felt a warmth in his heart.

"That's how it is." Lin Yaoxie flipped his hand, and a leather book made of more than a dozen animal hides joined together appeared in his hand.

Lin Yaoxie went to the Western Regions and, after a bloody rampage, obtained the Long Elephant Prajna Technique from the Golden Wheel Monk. This thirteen-page leather book records the thirteen levels of the Long Elephant Prajna Technique.

"Here you go." Lin Yaoxie casually tossed the leather book to Lu Wushuang.

The latter reached out and took it, slowly flipping through it.

Lin Yaoxie didn't rush him, slowly sipping his tea. After Lu Wushuang had flipped through all thirteen pages of the leather book, he smiled and asked, "Have you memorized it?"

"I only read it once, how could I remember it so quickly?" Lu Wushuang exclaimed in surprise.

But after she immediately noticed that the person she was talking to was Lin Yaoxie, someone she was growing to like more and more, she quickly lowered her voice.

"Young Master, is this a secret manual of martial arts?"

Lin Yaoxie wasn't angry; he would have been surprised if Lu Wushuang had reacted differently.
