Chapter 984: Chapter 651: A Cast into the Blue Abyss, New Phenomena, and the Age of the Dragon Demon!

This technique doesn’t show any improvement in proficiency over three or four days, which is common.

White mist curls, with the fragrance of tea filling the air.

Stepping out of the Red Refining Banner, Meng Chuan sits at the tea table.

One hand covers the mountain-view teacup and sways the fragrance, introspecting internally.

Inside the Middle Dantian.

Black mist gathers; this is the dwelling place of the dragon demon, resembling a scene better than the "Demon Nest."

As Meng Chuan arrives, the black mist seems to sense something, and rolls away to both sides intelligently.

From the depths emerges a gigantic, wide shadow, which storms forward and crashes heavily into Meng Chuan’s embrace.

Ha—

The dragon demon’s enormous head tunnels around in Meng Chuan’s arms, nudging about.

Like a puppy sticking out its tongue panting, showing its liver, though its blood-red mouth gaping, it seems particularly ferocious...

But this is how others see it.

To Meng Chuan, the dragon demon is his good puppy!

At crucial times it saves its owner; the ranks of these atmospheric creatures within him must be rearranged.

He’s declared that from now on, the dragon demon is the boss within!

After cosying up with the dragon demon baby, Meng Chuan strokes its smooth big belly adorned with dark rings and starts contemplating serious matters.

Previously, during the Creation Skill, he considered a lot for the dragon demon as well.

Referring to the Cyan Nether Dragon-locking Skill during training, simultaneously absorbing power while practicing, allowing the dragon demon to grow in sync with oneself.

As proficiency in the cultivation technique increases, the dragon demon’s strength increases simultaneously.

Ever since the Dragon-locking Skill broke limits, the dragon demon’s normal growth path hit its cap, only external objects could strengthen it.

Now that the Sitting Forget Divine Skill is added, in other words, the dragon demon can "get stronger by taking hits" again...

Meng Chuan communicates his intentions and explains the pros and cons to the dragon demon.

His words are persuasive:

"Endure hardships and achieve Dragon God!"

The dragon demon squints its three eyes, expressing a human-like sorrow.

It trains every day, and in the future, it also has to endure beatings daily...

Sigh...

But to become stronger, what’s a little hardship?!

Deeply shaken, the dragon demon is full of fighting spirit:

"Remember the humiliation of being oppressed by the Tao Heart; dragon demon, oh dragon demon, the master has given you such a great opportunity, it’s time to rise, go go go!"

"Good job!"

Meng Chuan feels the dragon demon’s resolve and is extremely gratified in an instant.

The heart is in unison, the force is united; he also feels the dragon demon’s desire to become stronger!

"Then, the midnight beatings every night, let’s leave it to the Tao Heart."

"..."

The dragon demon’s expression stiffens.

After speaking, Meng Chuan’s perception exits his body, returning to prepare for martial training.

While adjusting his breathing before exerting strength, Meng Chuan considers the upgrade of the dragon demon, pondering:

"Based on the current effect, roughly estimating.

When the Sitting Forget Skill advances to about the fifth level, combined with the sustained power granted by essence and dragon blood, by then, the dragon demon should have no problem solo confronting someone like Dong Yue, a newly Breaking Four Martial Arts Grandmaster..."

The Sitting Forget Divine Skill, thoroughly integrated, started with two layers of proficiency granted to the dragon demon.

Why has this fellow grown so fat recently? The excess of essence is just a minor reason.

The real big factor is digesting the massive energy brought by the Sitting Forget Divine Skill. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Once all this energy is fully digested, the dragon demon can single-handedly take on Senior Brother [Red Fiery Ape · Chen Jing] without issue.

If using deconstructive divine poison to ambush, even an experienced Three-Limit Master like Commander Long Jiu.

If caught off guard, they might not be a match for the dragon demon either!

This is the power of the Divine Skill, as the imagery creature nurtured under its influence.

Like a version upgrade, shedding the old shackles of the Dragon-locking Skill, welcoming the new empowerment of the Sitting Forget Divine Skill.

The rise of the dragon demon is about to usher in its era as the main force in battle!

Meng Chuan then thinks of another matter:

"Speaking of...the horizontal practice in my cultivation, the Wudang Black Tortoise Series, could it also nurture an imagery creature?

... Atmospheric Black Tortoise?"

From ordinary hard skills, eventually to the supreme Divine Skill, the Dao of Immortality.

He’s already worked hard on the Baxia Heaven-Supporting Skill, nearly reaching perfection, yet still doesn’t feel an imagery creature nurtured within.

Meng Chuan mumbles to himself:

"Perhaps it requires reaching the high-level True Skill Level horizontal practice—[Black Tortoise Refined True Body]?

Plan to consult Headmaster Chen Tuan someday, though few in Wudang practice this technique, it’s not unheard of..."

If in the future there’s a "turtle" within...

Meng Chuan calculates, he’s really opening a zoo inside his body...
