In addition, his abilities far surpass those of his peers.
This made him the undisputed king of the children in Jinyu Village.
Furthermore, the extraordinary abilities Li Dao displayed made even children older than him willing to believe in him.
It was definitely not the same as when I was four years old, when I joined the hunting team and single-handedly carried the Crimson Flame Bull with such intimidation.
Li Dao nodded to them, his face full of smiles.
These are all his people, the force that can protect Golden Feather Village after he leaves.
"Brother Dao, I feel several shades darker after this medicinal bath. Won't it burst?"
A little boy next to Li Dao, with snot dripping from his nose, asked somewhat timidly.
Jin Yu Village has three baptisms: at the age of three, six, and twelve.
It's no wonder he asked that question. During the previous baptism, although the medicinal liquid was rich in divine essence, its color was still light red.
However, this time the color turned directly into a dark brown, and you could feel the rich essence even from a distance.
The last time he was baptized, he was almost overwhelmed by the immense medicinal power. This time it was even more intense than the last time, which is why he asked Li Dao.
Before Li Dao could speak, the little girl on the other side spoke first:
"Slug, isn't this a good thing?"
"My mother said that the more divine essence I absorb, the stronger my foundation will be, and I'll be able to become as powerful as Brother Dao in the future!"
"Are you scared?"
Upon hearing this, the slug immediately became indignant. How could he tolerate being scared by a girl?
He immediately raised his head and said:
"Er Ya, what do you mean I'm scared?"
"Let's see who comes out first. I'm sure I can hold on for a long time!"
"And don't call me Snotty. I'm Li Kaixin. My mom said I should always be happy!"
These words sparked the competitive spirit of the other children, who retorted:
"Whoever comes out last among us will be the second eldest brother!"
"It's settled then!"
"I'm going to give it a shot too!"
Li Dao listened to their conversation without interrupting. He believed that it would be good if they could arouse their competitive spirit and absorb more divine essence.
The commotion naturally attracted the attention of the adults, who cheered them on.
"Slug, show some manliness! Don't let the little girl outdo you!"
"If Er Ya persists to the end, she'll be the second eldest brother. Show them what you're capable of."
"..."
Li Kai smiled and shook his head, not saying much. Seeing the lively scene, he felt very warm inside.
He took out a small jade bottle from his pocket, carefully uncorked it, and immediately a strong smell of blood filled the entire room.
As the small jade bottle poured out, a drop of blood, filled with a wild and untamed aura and radiating golden light, like an amber-colored bead, dripped into the medicine cauldron.
This is a drop of blood left behind by the ancient species Vermilion Bird, which he obtained by chance.
Although it is not the essence of the Vermilion Bird, the energy contained within it is comparable to that of the blood of some pure-blooded beings.
The moment a drop fell into the medicine cauldron, the originally dark brown liquid instantly turned crimson.
It didn't resemble a pot of precious liquid; rather, it was a pot of magma, still boiling continuously.
"Wow—"
The next moment, a large, bright red bird flew out of the cauldron from the crimson magma.
Flames emanated from between the crimson wings.
The temperature rose rapidly the moment it appeared.
Upon seeing the Vermilion Bird's figure, Li Dao's expression changed.
A solemn look appeared in his eyes, his body trembled, and the pressure emanating from his body instantly increased.
Within the meridians, qi and blood surged like billowing smoke, interspersed with streaks of divine light.
"A rootless duckweed, yet it dares to be so presumptuous!"
But just as he was about to make his move, he heard the village chief shout.
Then, three magnificent grottoes, as bright as the sun, rose behind the village chief, and three volcanoes erupted from within them.
The vital energy is like magma, surging and flowing within the body.
A golden glint flashed in Li Kai's eyes, and with a palm strike, the Vermilion Bird phantom that was flying freely in mid-air was struck as if by lightning.
In an instant, it transformed into wisps of divine essence and fell into the medicine cauldron.
Ignoring the astonished looks on the villagers' faces, he spoke in a deep voice:
"Everyone, enter the cauldron in turn!"
Seeing a group of little kids behind him, still reeling from the shock of the village chief's earlier actions.
Li Dao was the first to walk over and enter the medicine cauldron where the Vermilion Bird had landed.
This was specially prepared for him by the village chief according to an ancient recipe, and its concentration of divine essence is more than a hundred times that of the other nine large cauldrons.
It's not that they're treating each other differently. Li Dao needs dozens of times more energy than an ordinary person. If those children can absorb all the energy in their respective medicine cauldrons, that's already quite good.
In addition, Li Dao's parents died early, and he was raised by the village chief, who naturally showed him some favoritism.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have brought out such a treasure as the Vermilion Bird's Blood.
Li Dao nodded to the village chief.
Watching the precious liquid with its occasional golden threads drifting by, he couldn't help but swallow hard.
It wasn't nervousness, but rather a sense of anticipation.
puff-
With a leap, he landed in the cauldron, and Li Kai quickly closed the lid.
Seeing Li Dao take the lead, the other children gritted their teeth and headed straight for their respective medicine cauldrons.
Thump thump thump—
The sound of water splashing everywhere was heard, and before long, a series of ghostly wails and howls came from the medicine cauldron.
All the grand pronouncements he had made earlier were completely forgotten the moment he entered the cauldron.
"Get me out of here right now, I'm going to be boiled alive!!"
"It's so hot! I want to go home! Waaaaah!"
"Oh my god, I'm going to be boiled alive!"
"Ugh, no, no, my body is going to burst!"
"..."
Hearing their child's cries inside the medicine cauldron, the parents waiting outside couldn't help but cover their faces.
Before going in, they acted like they were the most important person in the world, but not long after, they started wailing.
There's nothing we can do about it; after all, they're our own kids, and we can only cheer them on from behind the thick walls of the cauldron.
He would occasionally glance enviously at the medicine cauldron on the far right, his eyes filled with longing.
Seeing that the medicine cauldron where Li Dao was located was not making any noise, Li Kai, who was standing to the side, was not too worried.
He recalled his first medicinal bath, which was also like this. At the time, he was terrified because there was no sound at all.
Upon opening the lid of the cauldron, it was discovered that Li Dao had already absorbed the entire medicinal liquid.
He fell asleep inside the medicine cauldron.
From that moment on, he knew just how extraordinary Li Dao was.
A faint sense of anticipation stirred within me.
"Could it be that our Golden Feather Village is about to welcome a new expert at the Cave Heaven Realm?"
Chapter 3 Metamorphosis
Li Dao had no time to pay attention to the outside world's turmoil.
As soon as they entered the medicine cauldron, they were overwhelmed by the rich essence.
Every single cell in my body is cheering.
Like rain after a long drought, it began to devour this rich energy.
Strands of divine essence continuously seeped into his body through his pores.
Within his dantian, the crimson furnace had expanded to more than twice its size compared to the morning, with its opening wide open.
He was frantically absorbing and refining the endless stream of pure energy, and streams of pure essence were flowing into his limbs and bones.
Li Dao sensed the insurmountable chasm, the insurmountable barrier, in this physical body.
Once this formidable barrier is overcome, the body will undergo a new transformation.
With this thought in mind, he immediately mobilized all the qi and blood in his body, and his divine power transformed into a crimson blood diamond that could pierce the sky and shatter the earth, rushing towards the ultimate barrier.
hum-
The blood diamond, shimmering with crimson ripples and radiating an intense, terrifying aura, caused a wave of excruciating pain to wash over the entire body the moment it touched the barrier.
Li Dao's skin was spasming slightly, and pain swept over his entire body like a tidal wave, causing him to groan involuntarily.
However, he did not make any other moves, but simply used all his internal energy to push his body to its limits.
During this process, he also felt the bottleneck of the cave heaven, which was like a thin piece of paper that he could easily poke with a single touch.
