Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 771 - 0: Mastering the Golden Bell Shield_1

「French Vineyard.」

In the Underground Dragon Palace, Zhang Bin sat cross-legged, ready to begin his cultivation.

"Your progress has been rapid lately. Your soul has become purer, and your body has also grown stronger and much purer," the Dragon Vein Elder praised.

"Dragon Vein Elder, I have something to ask you. Do you know about the True Phoenix?" Zhang Bin asked expectantly.

"The True Phoenix?" the Dragon Vein exclaimed in surprise. "In my ancestral memories, there are some records about them. They are a powerful form of life, not inferior to us Earth Dragons. They are nurtured in flames of extreme temperatures, and their gestation period is nearly as long as ours."

"What? You have ancestral memories?" Zhang Bin was astonished, disbelief written all over his face.

"I don't know why, but I have some memories in my mind, though they are vague," the Dragon Vein said. "That's all I know about the True Phoenix."

This is too strange. Perhaps the Dragon Vein Elder has a special origin. Zhang Bin muttered to himself before telling the elder about Phoenix eating a True Phoenix Egg. He then asked, "Dragon Vein Elder, is there any way to save that beautiful woman? Is there any way to preserve her body?"

"The world is vast and full of wonders," the Dragon Vein sighed. "I cannot save her, as I don't know the Cultivation Method of the True Phoenix clan. I haven't even comprehended the Cultivation Method for Earth Dragons yet. I'm still waiting to trade with you for the techniques from the Dragon Canon. Alas, my ancestral memories are too vague."

Alas, even the Dragon Vein can't do anything. Phoenix, it seems you really won't be able to preserve your body. Zhang Bin sighed inwardly. As for the techniques from the Dragon Canon, he hadn't yet thought of a good way to learn them, but he was sure a solution would present itself in the future.

Wasting no more time, he began to cultivate diligently.

He was, of course, practicing the Qingmu Longevity Technique. He swiftly devoured Dragon Qi. The majority was consumed by his bones, the seed, and Xiao Qing, while his muscles, skin, and internal organs only absorbed a small portion.

When he reached his limit and could no longer absorb Dragon Qi, Zhang Bin had a sudden thought. I wonder what effect practicing the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique here would have?

He immediately began to experiment, cultivating the skin on his head, as it was the most important area.

Soon, he had constructed a Magnifying Formation within the capillaries of his scalp. He began to compress the cells according to the method, causing them to divide. This shortened the distance between them and arranged them in a special pattern, similar to the molecular structure of gold.

WHIRRR...

Something miraculous occurred.

His head suddenly exuded a tremendous devouring force, inhaling the Dragon Qi as a whale drinks water. The divided cells voraciously devoured the Dragon Qi and quickly grew strong. Under Zhang Bin's control, they divided again. This speed was a hundred times faster than when Zhang Bin cultivated using Longevity Qi.

My heavens, Dragon Qi is truly miraculous! I've struck it rich this time. It seems I can quickly master the first layer of the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique. Zhang Bin shouted excitedly in his heart.

With no hesitation, he continued to cultivate with all his might.

In just over ten minutes, he had cultivated the skin of his head to its limit. The distance between cells was now minimal, and they were arranged into a special, exceptionally uniform pattern. This formed a strange force field, and he felt his skin become much harder than steel!

Then he started to cultivate the skin on other areas of his body.

The Dragon Vein did not stop him, simply allowing him to devour Dragon Qi for his cultivation. By now, Zhang Bin's soul and body had become much purer and would not overly pollute the Dragon Vein's own body. Purifying himself after Zhang Bin left would not be too difficult.

About five hours later, Zhang Bin had cultivated the Golden Bell Shield to the peak of perfection, leaving only two spots, each the size of a copper coin, on the soles of his feet.

Oddly, no matter how hard he tried, he could not cultivate these two areas. The cells there seemed incapable of dividing, so their defensive power could not be increased.

What's going on? Zhang Bin's face was filled with confusion.

"It's simple," the Dragon Vein said nonchalantly. "Those are its weak points—the places for expelling impurities. They must exist. Unless you cultivate a true Dragon Body, crystalline and transparent without a single trace of impurity or filth, those weak points will not disappear."

"I see. So I don't need to be concerned about the two remaining weak points," Zhang Bin said, his face alight with joy. "It seems I've successfully cultivated the first layer of the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique. I can start on the second layer—the Vajra Body."

The second layer involved changing the gaps between the cells of the muscle tissue, making them dense and orderly until they formed a molecular structure similar to gold, which created a strange force field. Naturally, his defensive power would rise with it.

Ever greedy, Zhang Bin immediately gave it a try, but he soon gave up. He realized he was incapable of cultivating it. After all, the Vajra Body required using True Qi to construct a three-dimensional Magnifying Formation within the capillaries of every single muscle, and he simply lacked that level of precise control.

This must be because my spiritual power isn't strong enough. Zhang Bin lamented inwardly. Only now did he truly understand that his spiritual power was not as significant as he thought. In fact, he was still very weak.

If that was the case, the subsequent layers of cultivation would likely demand even greater spiritual power. A doubt immediately arose in his heart. How did Chiang Xue cultivate this in the past? How could her spiritual power have met the requirement? After all, she had cultivated the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique to the fifth layer at the very least.

"Master, perhaps you've misunderstood something," Tutu's voice echoed in Zhang Bin's mind. "The Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique doesn't just refine the body; it also rapidly strengthens the soul and spiritual power. Haven't you noticed? Using spiritual power to control True Qi to form the Magnifying Formation is an excellent way to train your spiritual power. By training like this over many years, your spiritual power will continuously grow stronger. And as it strengthens, your soul will naturally become more powerful as well."

A thoughtful look appeared on Zhang Bin's face. Perhaps that's it. However, the Heavenly Demon Technique strengthens the soul more directly and rapidly. That's why, before she died, Chiang Xue's soul was obliterated by a supreme expert who cultivated that very technique. If I want to master the Tyrant Gold Celestial Technique quickly, I still need to find a cultivation method for the soul, like the Heavenly Demon Technique.

"This time, you've absorbed and refined a lot of Dragon Qi. You owe me 5,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones," the Dragon Vein said. His appetite was growing larger, as he was surprised to discover that Zhang Bin could apparently obtain so many Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

"Five thousand?" Zhang Bin frowned, carefully calculating the amount of Dragon Qi he had absorbed. When he realized the Dragon Vein's demand wasn't too excessive, he said nonchalantly, "Is that all? Just 5,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones? Here you go."

With that, at a mere thought from him, 5,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones flew out and piled into a small mountain on the ground.

Ever since Xiao Qing began assisting his cultivation of the Pure Heart Mystique, his spiritual power had grown increasingly strong, and so had his ability for Qi gathering. He could now produce 3,000 Spirit Stones a day. He was truly flush with wealth.

The Dragon Vein was so delighted that he nearly fainted. He looked forward even more to Zhang Bin growing stronger and devouring more Dragon Qi, which meant he would receive even more Top-Grade Spirit Stones.
