Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

“The best dharma treasure…” Hao Ren asked them after a few seconds of hesitation, “It’s in the Dragon God Shrine, right?”

He thought it was no accident that Lady Zhen mentioned dharma treasures, but he knew Su Han didn’t want to talk about this topic and thus didn’t ask her.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili smiled at each other. “When you plant the mystic crystal, we can go get the dharma treasure!”

Seeing their mysterious looks, Hao Ren figured out most of the story.

The fact that Lady Zhen was Zhen Congming’s mom didn’t mean that she stood with Hao Ren or East Ocean; she must be interested in the dharma treasures in the Dragon God Shrine as well.

She was showing her friendliness by giving Hao Ren the purple gold hairpin, and her appearance outside of Demon Sea was because Qiu Niu was in seclusion cultivation in the Nine Dragon Palace, and no one could suppress her.

Lights flashed in Xie Yujia’s cave abode.

The process of refining the natal dharma treasure had begun. Xie Yujia usually used Little White’s demon fire to make elixirs while adjusting the process with her gold and silver notes. This time, Su Han used genuine fire to refine her natal dharma treasure while Xie Yujia helped her mix the materials and control the fire.

“It usually takes 49 days to refine a natal dharma treasure, but with Big Zhumu’s help, it will take only half a day since the Life-Death Notes is a magical technique. The faster the refining process is, the better the dharma treasure will be.”

Lu sister turned to look at Xie Yujia’s cave abode and said.

“Ok…” Hao Ren nodded.

Although Xie Yujia’s cultivation talent was not good, her sense of proportions was excellent. When they were in their first year, half of the students in their class failed in Materials Analysis, but Xie Yujia was the only one who got full marks.

If she could go on with the path of elixir and understand Heavenly Dao with elixir making, it wouldn’t be hard for her to gain a high realm.

“How is your recent cultivation, Gongzi?” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili grabbed Hao Ren’s arms and asked while they watched the lights in Xie Yujia’s cave abode.

“After the tutoring from Zi’s third uncle, it’s no problem for me to reach Dui-level,” Hao Ren said.

Something smooth entered Hao Ren’s body from Lu sisters’ hands, and he breathed slowly, allowing them to investigate.

“Hehe, your body has become a pure five-elemental body type! The two Five-Mountain Bracelets can balance the five elements and thus are perfect treasures for your cultivation, Gongzi!” Lu sisters investigated for a while and said.

Hao Ren exhaled deeply, gratified that his impure body type had finally improved after his persistent cultivation.

The two Five-Mountain Bracelets given to him by Su Han helped him a lot as well.

The so-called immortal body type had all five elements, and Hao Ren had reached the first requirement. According to the Lu sisters’ standard, Hao Ren had just finished building the foundation.

“Since you’ve achieved the immortal body type, you can officially begin lightning cultivation,” they told him cheerfully.

“That’s why…” Hao Ren asked, “We have to be in the valley?”

They shook their heads and said, “No! There are so many snow lion cubs here!”

Hao Ren smiled at their nervous and cute expressions and took out the purple gold hairpin.

Boom! It turned into a ship which carried Hao Ren, Lu Linlin, and Lu Lili out of the valley.

Hua… With an unnoticeable light to cultivators, the ship came to the ruins of Kongtong Sect in the blink of an eye.

Some Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and Core Formation Realm cultivators were rummaging in the ruins, trying to find some treasures left behind by Kongtong Sect.

When they saw a golden ship landing suddenly, they fled in fright on their flight dharma treasures.

The ship gave them an indescribable suppression, and they knew they couldn’t offend whoever was on the ship. They felt like they would be killed if they didn’t leave this place quickly.

Feeling the magnificent surging presence of the purple gold hairpin, Hao Ren landed the ship and stuck the shrunken purple gold hairpin into the ground beside him.

Bang!

The brown land suddenly turned bright purple!

In the blink of an eye, the purple color spread to an area with a diameter of 100 kilometers and turned the land purple!

The weird purple was a warning; anyone trespassing the area would be killed!

Hao Ren was surprised at this function of the purple gold hairpin.

In fact, this purple color had a less suppression effect on human cultivators than in the Demon Sea. If this happened in the Demon Sea, all the demon beasts, from no level to level 10, would flee in fear at the sight of the purple color. If the purple color enveloped the territories of level 10 demon beasts, they would have to escape from the area.

The purple color meant that this land had been taken without compensation!

Standing by Hao Ren, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were also surprised at the great power of the small purple gold hairpin. They had only heard about eternal demon kings, but now they had a feeling of the terrifying power they had.

Hao Ren chose the ruins of Kongtong Sect since it was situated at the tail of a small spirit mine and thus had an abundance of nature essence.

Hao Ren found a clean platform and sat down cross-legged, circulating the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll.

The 320 sword energies moved at his will and turned into thin and dense silver needles before entering the surrounding clouds and mist.

The sword energies formed an array formation while hundun sword energies moved vaguely inside.

Clouds came together to form a vortex of thunderclouds, but such clouds were three to four times smaller than the true thunderclouds for Heavenly Tribulations.

Hua… Like silver snakes, lightning bolts struck down suddenly on the area with Hao Ren as the center and a diameter of 50 kilometers, turning all the remaining buildings in the Kongtong Sect into dust.

Surges of lightning energy entered Hao Ren’s body, and they were the purest five-elemental essence.

The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll required the cultivator to absorb all five elements simultaneously, which was slow, and the lightning cultivation had been the speedy method.

Now that Hao Ren balanced of five elements and attained the initial phase of the immortal body type, which was the cultivation body type of the primitive era, he could use the lightning cultivation again.

It was said that the cultivators during that time could break the mountains and the earth with a lift of one’s hand or foot. Lu Linlin and Lu Lili possessed such five-elemental body type and thus had great cultivation speeds.

Crack! Another wave of hundreds of lightning bolts crashed down.

Absorption!

Hao Ren lifted his hands, and the Five-Mountain Bracelets appeared on his wrist while a transparent lotus flower appeared vaguely above Hao Ren’s head.

Dozens of lightning bolts struck Hao Ren’s palms. After the diversions of the Five-Mountain Bracelets, they traveled smoothly into Hao Ren’s dragon core, activating all his meridians and replenishing his energy as if he was being recharged.

The big acupoints were important centers, and the small acupoints were connection points, while the meridians were channels that delivered nature essences!

The nature essences stored in the body was like the spirit stones that powered array formations, and the power would be let out once the array formation was activated.

Cultivating five elements simultaneously, Hao Ren made his body into an exquisite dharma treasure. His body was invincible to many elements, and it could even resist some of the heavenly lightning!

The Lu sisters’ Yin Yang Bracelets hovered above their heads, protecting them from being hurt by the heaven lightning bolts.

Seeing Hao Ren’s face turned from red to green then to black, they knew that the five-elemental essences in his body were moving continuously to merge.

No dragon cultivators had the patience to cultivate the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll to Dui-level before. In fact, once cultivators reached Dui-Level, their bodies would achieve the balance of the five elements as required by the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, and their body would turn into the immortal body type!

If they could add in the lightning cultivation which could improve cultivation speed, the later cultivation would be extremely fast!

However, it would be hard for the dragon cultivators to drop their respective elemental attribute to add in the other four elements. After all, the dragon cultivators valued their origins and clans.

For human cultivators who didn’t have the aid of dragon cores, it would be extremely difficult to cultivate the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll to the Core Formation Realm!

Only people like Hao Ren, who had the assistance from Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, or Zhao Kuo, who restarted his cultivation after the shattering of the dragon core at Qian-level, could cultivate the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll to a high level.

“Ha!”

Hao Ren opened his mouth and exhaled while the sword energies scattered in the clouds gathered together suddenly.

The 320 sword energies wrapped around a bolt of fist-sized dazzling lightning as they landed slowly.

Swallow the lightning!

Containing huge amounts of energy, the lightning bolt entered Hao Ren’s mouth and slowly traveled into his body.

Like a dense net, the entangled sword energies delivered the lightning bolt into the location around Hao Ren’s dantian. The lightning bolt could release energy thread by thread periodically for Hao Ren to digest slowly.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at Hao Ren in surprise since lightning swallowing was similar to the demon beasts’ cultivation method of swallowing natural essences.

The dark clouds scattered while the nearby nature essence brought freshness to the area. After all the misty air was destroyed by lightning, the nature essence intensity around them was even higher than before.

“Hu…” Hao Ren exhaled as lightning cracked out of his mouth.

The ball of lightning landed beside Hao Ren’s dantian, and he could vaguely feel the crackling sounds of his sword energies.

By storing the lightning energy in his body, he could cultivate fast and use it slowly. However, the downside was that he couldn’t launch his sword energies to attack enemies.

“Let’s go!” Hao Ren picked up the purple gold hairpin.

The purple color quickly disappeared, and the ground returned to its ordinary yellow color.

Hao Ren tossed out the purple gold hairpin which turned into a golden ship with a length of 16 meters and flew toward Ethereal Summit with Lu Linlin and Lu Lili.

The cultivators who had been hiding in nearby sects began to venture toward the Kongtong Sect when they saw the storm stopped suddenly.

Such a natural phenomenon usually meant that some special treasures appeared, showing that the Kongtong Sect indeed had some dharma treasures buried under the ground which even the sect master didn’t know about.

In the next months, the mountains belonged to the Kongtong Sect before would surely be a digging place for the treasure hunting cultivators. Some sects would even fight over the imaginary treasures, but they were doomed to be disappointed.

Oblivious that his lightning cultivation would cause another upheaval on Fifth Heaven, Hao Ren returned to Ethereal Summit with the two girls.

Colorful lights were still flashing inside Xie Yujia’s cave.

Standing in a group, the snow lion cubs in the valley blinked their big black eyes and watched Xie Yujia’s cave abode in wonder.

Although Xie Yujia’s elixir making speed was great, it took her a lot of effort to elevate Su Han’s dharma treasure.

If the elixirs were damaged, the materials would be wasted, but she could start again.

However, different from elixir making, the natal dharma treasure was connected with Su Han’s mind and spiritual senses. Once the natal dharma treasure was damaged, the owner would feel the heart-wrenching pain. To increase the level of the natal dharma treasure, it must be melted and refined again, which would bring great pain to the owner.

If not for her great fortitude, Su Han would have fainted at such great pains long ago. There was another less painful way of elevating the dharma treasure, and it took 49 days; that was too long for Su Han who planned to break into the Nine Dragon Palace next month.

“How long will it be?” Standing 100 meters away from Xie Yujia’s cave abode, Hao Ren asked Lu sisters in concern.

“It’s hard to say. Adding each material is a torturous process in itself, and Sister Su wants to add five materials. I wonder if she can make it,” Lu Lili said.

Once the dharma treasure merged with a cultivator and became his or her natal dharma treasure, it was equivalent to the cultivator’s second life, which was why most cultivators wouldn’t change or refine their natal dharma treasures.

Afraid that the natal dharma treasure would limit him, Zhao Kuo didn’t get a natal dharma treasure for himself but used a regular weapon instead.

Lu Sisters hoped that Hao Ren would have the best dharma treasure as his natal dharma treasure for the same reason. If he had chosen an ordinary dharma treasure as his natal dharma treasure, it would multiply his power temporarily, but it would be meaningless in the long run.

In their minds, if Hao Ren must obtain a natal dharma treasure, he had to choose the best dharma treasure in the world!

Bang!

A huge explosive sound came from Xie Yujia’s cave abode.

Worried about them, Hao Ren was about to rush in when a white light shot out from the cave abode like a silver dragon!
