Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

“What’s wrong?”

Hearing her shriek, Hao Ren turned his head to look inside the quilt.

On Zhao Yanzi’s white body was a clear green sword extending from her chest to her belly!

It looked like a birthmark or a tattoo!

“Why…” Zhao Yanzi touched her belly. When she saw Hao Ren looking into the quilt as well, she immediately pushed against his eyes heavily. “Hey!”

Hao Ren rubbed the spot between his eyebrows to ease the stinging pain, feeling wronged since he had been just showing concern for her… Also, she would become his wife sooner or later… Well, her smooth body began to show curves…

Zhao Yanzi pulled the quilt tightly around her and looked at Hao Ren in panic.

“Having such a mark on my body is disgusting! How can I go swimming with Ling and the others? Will Hao Ren feel disgusted at the sight of my body like this?” Zhao Yanzi’s face turned red as she thought.

When her third uncle mentioned that she could take the opportunity to refine a natal dharma treasure, he didn’t say anything about the marks on the body! She wondered if this mark would disappear.

The more she thought about it, the more irritated she got, especially when she thought of Xie Yujia’s great figure and smooth skin while she had a green mark on her body like a weirdo.

“It would be better looking if it were Sister Su’s slim longsword, but the Purple Green Treasure Sword has a wide body, and it covered a big part of my body. What can I do?” she thought to herself.

She wanted to summon out the Purple Green Treasure Sword to see if the mark would disappear, but she had just broken through, and she didn’t have any nature essence in her to force out her natal dharma treasure.

“I hate it! I hate it…” Zhao Yanzi yelled and then covered her head with the quilt angrily.

“I would never refine a natal dharma treasure if I knew the result!” she thought.

“Ugh…” Hao Ren froze when he saw her rolling in the quilt.

If another cultivator had successfully reached the Core Formation Realm and refined an ultimate dharma treasure into a natal dharma treasure, they would be beyond excited. However, Zhao Yanzi was so resentful of her breakthrough…

Anyway, Hao Ren was relieved when he saw that Zhao Yanzi had reached the Core Formation Realm safely.

He had accidentally seen Su Han’s body and didn’t see the mark of her natal dharma treasure on her skin, which meant that the natal dharma treasure wouldn’t show on the body this way, or it would eventually shrink into a corner.

However, he couldn’t comfort Zhao Yanzi with these words.

Seeing Zhao Yanzi still curled up in the quilt in frustration, Hao Ren opened the sound-proof array formation in the cave and flew out into the valley.

It was almost dawn, and pale light shone from a distance.

On Fifth Heaven, there were only day and night. Without the change of seasons or rain and snow, it seemed wonderful but could be boring sometimes.

Hum!

A five-colored energy sword appeared in his hand, Hao Ren recalled the Mystic Water Sword Techniques from his memory and began to practice in the open space of the valley.

Right now, he could even bounce up lightly by stepping on green grass.

In the misty white light of the dawn, Hao Ren’s sword technique looked light and vivacious with a hidden power which could destroy mountains and shake the sky.

He was only four openings away from reaching Xun-level, but the unlocking of the four openings was more difficult than all the work that he had done to unlock all the previous openings.

Compared with the human cultivators, it was more difficult for dragon cultivators to reach Qian-level and Kun-level which were equivalent to the Nascent Soul Realm. Hao Ren’s cultivation in the past had been easy due to the aid of the dragon core. However, as his realm increased, the effects of the dragon core got more insignificant.

In this case, he needed to plant a mystic crystal in his body to make the breakthrough. Since Hao Ren cultivated the five elements at the same time, he needed several times more nature essence. Without the mystic crystal to compress the nature essence, it was almost impossible to make a breakthrough.

Boom!

Hao Ren used a sword technique, shaking the array formation slightly and engulfing Ethereal Summit.

In the open fields were all kinds of spiritual herbs, and Xie Yujia separated the top-tier spiritual herbs that were used to nurture the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus with a small fence for special care. She even put a big cover on it, afraid that the playing snow lion cubs would get into the fence and damage the herbs.

They still needed several kinds of spiritual herbs to grow the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus. If he couldn’t get them in the Nine Dragon Palace, he would have to venture into the Demon Sea and ask Lady Zhen for help.

With five-colored energy sword in his hand, he swung out his right arm and shot out a strong surge of nature essence.

His realm had increased greatly after gaining the Immortal Physique, but he was still no match for top-tier masters such as Taiyi Cave Master.

If he used the Mystic Water Sword Techniques rashly, he probably wouldn’t do any serious damage to the Taiyi Cave Master. Instead, Taiyi Cave Master might learn the techniques from him.

The key was to increase his realm and strength. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to use the Mystic Water Sword Techniques, which was a set of immortal sword techniques.

Frustrated, Hao Ren touched the grass with the tip of the sword. While his body flew to the side, he swept the sword across a stretch of grass.

Swoosh! The green grass shot out like bullets before sinking into the black cliff.

Hao Ren stopped practicing when the snow lion cubs woke up and ran toward him.

The night in the valley was cool. Since the snow lion cubs couldn’t run up the stairs into Zhao Yanzi or Xie Yujia’s caves for the night, they usually slept together in a corner beside the cliff.

Seeing them trotting to his side like small balls, Hao Ren thought for a moment and shot out a sword energy, digging out a tunnel with a depth of several meters in the cliff close to the ground.

The sword energy in the tunnel exploded, creating many small caves.

Hao Ren bent down, picked up a snow lion cub, and tossed it into the cave. It tumbled and fell into the tunnel before crawling into a small cave with a shake of its rump.

It was warm in the winter and cool in the summer inside the tunnel, a perfect place for them to stay.

Seeing that snow lion entering the tunnel, the other snow lions immediately ran over, and each of them took one small cave. They barked happily for having such good caves.

Xie Yujia returned to the valley on her Ruyi Cloth shakily, and she smiled when she saw Hao Ren opening caves for the snow lions kindly.

“How is Zi?” When she landed on the meadow, Xie Yujia asked Hao Ren immediately.

In fact, when she saw Hao Ren’s relaxed expression, she knew that Zhao Yanzi had reached the milestone successfully. However, but she didn’t know that Zhao Yanzi had successfully refined the Purple Green Treasure Sword.

“It was a success. She’s sleeping now,” Hao Ren answered.

“Good. Zi’s smart, and I knew that she would be ok.” Xie Yujia smiled slightly.

Qin Yin Sect felt honored when she stayed the night, and the Sect Master and two Core Formation Realm cultivators came to serve her in person.

Xie Yujia took the opportunity to ask some questions about cultivation. Thinking that Xie Yujia wanted to quiz them on basic knowledge, they were nervous and told her all the answers they had.

After hearing the cultivation experiences of the three Core Formation Realm cultivators, Xie Yujia found all the answers to her questions.

She was at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the Core Formation Realm cultivators in the three small sects were very clear with the key points for the Foundation Establishment Realm, and their foundations were very solid.

After they were gone, Xie Yujia thought about their words carefully and tried to cultivate. To her surprise, she broke through some of the obstacles and reached top-tier Foundation Establishment Realm!

For Soul Formation Realm cultivators such as Old Grandma, the progress from mid-tier Foundation Establishment Realm to top-tier was insignificant, but it was a huge leap for Xie Yujia!

She had asked Su Han questions about cultivation, and Su Han had answered them patiently. However, the cultivation details for the dragon cultivators were different from those of the human cultivators.

Although the Sect Master and the two disciples of Clear Sound Sect didn’t have high realms, they could offer detailed answers to Xie Yujia’s questions.

It was an unexpected achievement for Xie Yujia to level up in one night!

Right now, Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia and noticed that her realm had increased while her complexion was pinker than before.

Bang!

The golden shield which had laid on a rock for one night suddenly exploded the rock beneath it and bounced up.

After one night of cultivation, it had completely absorbed the treasure soul of the Demon-Conquering Vajra and the abundant nature essence that it got from Sixth Heaven. It had solidified its realm and got stronger!

The overwhelming golden lights looked like boundless ocean waves when they spread out from Ethereal Summit!

The cultivators in the three small sects who had gotten up to do their morning practices suddenly found the nature essence intensity increasing instantly!

Seeming to have possessed inexhaustible nature essence, the golden shield spun and swept up huge gales which almost blew up the rocks in the valley.

It flew around the valley, trying to find a rival!

Swoosh! Its golden light shot into the Little White’s cave and landed on latter’s rump!

“Roar…” Little White jumped up from the cave abruptly and turned into its snow lion form instantly! After one night, it had grown bigger!

A level 5 snow lion!

The level 10 demonic core was unusually powerful! After digesting it for one night in the quiet Ethereal Summit, Little White finally absorbed most of the demonic core and advanced to level 5.

Little White opened its mouth wide and released red flames from its paws, ready to fight with the golden shield.

A level 5 demon beast was equivalent to low-tier Nascent Soul Realm! Little White didn’t expect that it would become a level 5 demon beast!

After firming its realm, the golden shield still looked black. When it didn’t release golden lights, it was as ugly as a big iron plate.

When it saw Little White leaping toward it, it shot out a golden light beam which was as thick as a thumb.

With a wriggle of its golden tail, Little White brushed the golden light beam away.

The space in Ethereal Summit was big enough for the treasure and the beast to fight. However, if they got serious, Little White’s body could fill the entire valley while the golden shield could cover the entire mountain!

“Little White…” Xie Yujia looked at the nimble Little White in surprise, not expecting it to reach such a high realm!

Right now, Little White could even fight with a top-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!

From Fifth Heaven to Seventh Heaven, only Jitian, the level 6 demon beast which guarded Sky Mountain Sect, had a higher realm than Little White.

However, Jitian was now more than 1,000 years old while Little White was only about 200 years old! If the ancestors of Sky Mountain Sect had seen such an elevation speed, they would have been shocked!

After Little White got to level 5 with the aid of a level 10 demon core, it would be hard for Little White to elevate to a higher level.

Thud!

The Purple Green Treasure Sword suddenly shot out from Zhao Yanzi’s cave. Pale-faced, Zhao Yanzi leaped lightly from the entrance of the cave and stepped onto the Purple Green Treasure Sword.

“Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan…” Zhao Yanzi’s crisp voice sounded.

The Purple Green Treasure Sword under her feet instantly changed to four positions. Then, Zhao Yanzi kicked on the handle of the sword lightly, and the Purple Green Treasure Sword jumped up lightly into her hand.

When the sword slashed, starry lights flashed!

It looked as if many stars had appeared, and four stars were the brightest!

Taking out the demonic bow, Xie Yujia shot four light arrows toward the four stars.

With the twitching of Zhao Yanzi’s sword tip, the four stars changed directions suddenly. Xie Yujia shook her thumb ring slightly, and the light arrows seemed to have heard her instructions and went on!

Boom!

The valley shook in the morning light.

Zhao Yanzi’s starry lights were powerful! When Xie Yujia’s light arrows shattered, Zhao Yanzi’s four starry lights were still intact!

The Big Dipper Constellation Scroll was from Seventh Heaven; it was full of infinite mysteries!

In the past when she practiced Tianshu, Tianxuan, and Tianji, she could only use separate sword forms. But after reaching the Core Formation Realm, she could use Tianquan, thus completing the first set of techniques!

She moved her feet, and the sword shot out a string of starry lights with crackling sounds.

Although she could only cover a small range, it was still very powerful!

Zhao Yanzi could cover the range of 500 meters with the four starry lights!

When Duan Yao was at low-tier Core Formation Realm, she hadn’t been able to refine the Purple Green Treasure Sword into her natal dharma treasure and couldn’t shot out four stars.

However, Zhao Yanzi was extremely smart and had gained a total understanding of them!

Happily, Zhao Yanzi put away the Purple Green Treasure Sword, and it vanished in her palm.

In the past, Zhao Yanzi couldn’t put the long and wide Purple Green Treasure Sword into her storage space and wasn’t able to bring it back. Now that she had refined it into her natal dharma treasure, she could bring it anywhere she wanted!

Xie Yujia was surprised at the power of Zhao Yanzi’s sword technique, and more so when she saw the latter had turned the Purple Green Treasure Sword into her natal dharma treasure!

Xie Yujia’s demonic bow was an ancient treasure, and she wondered if she could refine it into her natal dharma treasure as well. But now, she could do nothing but envy Zhao Yanzi!

Zhao Yanzi was obviously smug since she had broken through to low-tier Core Formation Realm, obtained a powerful natal dharma treasure, and even easily broken Xie Yujia’s arrows.

“Hehe! I, Zhao Yanzi, am now a master!” she thought to herself.

“Taoist Lingwu from Sky Mountain Sect greets Herb King Master!” A clear and resonant voice suddenly came from outside the valley.
