It was not like he had become a dragon and is no longer a human. It was only his body transforming into that of a dragon's. After his energy will run out, he will return back to his human form.
Not only this, but he also gained a few new abilities. Now, he doesn't need to touch the corpse and circulate the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique to devour. In fact, he does not even need to touch the corpse to devour. When he kills someone or any magical beast, he can directly devour them with just a thought.
He also gained an ability known as Spirit Devour Escape!
It was a movement skill. The surprising thing was that he did not need to use his own spiritual energy to activate this skill. He can directly devour the spirit energy from heaven and earth and use them to move at an extremely fast speed.
While in dragon form, he can use this skill to its fullest potential. It will be like disappearing in an instant.
Not only this, but he can now also devour more than just spirit energy from a corpse.
For example, if he killed a human who has a water elemental body, he can now not only devour the spirit energy from that human, he can also devour and obtain the water elemental body.
It was quite surprising, but this was the truth. Ye Xiao could not believe that the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon was actually this overpowered and heaven defying.
He started to think about what will happen if he can devour and own all five types of elemental body, or other types of the sacred body like Lin Ling's Extreme Ice Sage Body.
He can also devour and own other bloodlines, and like others, he did not have a limit that he can only have one or two bloodlines. He can have as many bloodlines as he can devour after all the ability of the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon was to devour the Heaven and Earth and use them for its own.
Ye Xiao can also use all types of bloodlines, elemental bodies, and the sacred bodies that he will devour as if they were his own in the first place.
Just thinking about this, Ye Xiao could not help but shout excitedly while raising his head high.
Ye Xiao could not help but green in joy. He wanted to find out something so he looked in his sea of consciousness and was surprised to see that there was no one in his sea of consciousness.
"Where is the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon?"
"Did i... Did it really merged with me and became one with me?"
Ye Xiao was so shocked that he could not continue thinking. He could not help but think of the moment when the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon and the energy Dragon both collided with him.
Sigh!
Ye Xiao sighed. He was about to stand up when he again felt something. He hurriedly checked and his mouth was again left wide open!
"Third Stage Martial King Realm!"
"I actually advanced directly to the Third Stage of the Martial King Realm from the Early First Stage of the Martial King Realm!"
His cultivation again increased without him even knowing. His cultivation speed was just too fast. At this moment, even he himself didn't know just how powerful he had become.
He went through many life and death situations in a very short amount of time but his strength also increased by a large margin.
The saying is really true, for all disadvantages there were advantages. He did gain many things from the disaster that struck him.
Ye Xiao did not know how to describe what he was feeling right now. It was Extreme emotion with both happiness and sadness.
When Ye Xiao thought about all of the things that he went through after his encounter with the Heavenly Pearl, he could not help but feel extremely grateful toward it.
If not for the Heavenly Pearl, he still would have been a cripple man. He would not have become what he is today.
The thing that made him most excited was that he can now start cultivating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique and create another dragon inside his sea of consciousness.
He did not know what dragon will be formed by cultivating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, but he did know that the dragon that will form will be at least as amazing as the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon
He wanted to immediately start cultivating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique and create another dragon inside his sea of consciousness, but he did not know how much time has passed while he was making his breakthrough to the Martial King Realm and merging with the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon and the energy dragon that was formed with the strange energies that came out after the dragon-shaped core exploded.
He still did not know the usage of the energy dragon that had merged with his flesh, bones, and blood.
He thought of returning to the Azure Dragon Country and meet with his master first. If there were still some time left before they will leave for the Grand Xia Empire, he will try to form the second dragon inside his sea of consciousness.
He came out from the Nine Story Pagoda and exited the Heavenly Pearl. He once again appeared at the place where he had overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. Hundreds of meters of the area around this place were completely destroyed.
Ye Xiao once again returned to the imperial city of the Azure Dragon Country. He directly went to the Alchemist Association to find his master, but what shocked him that his master was not there.
"Ye Xiao, you have finally returned!"
He was about to ask where his master was when he heard a soft voice of a girl. He turned back and saw Tong Nian entering the Alchemist Association.
"Big sis Nian!" Ye Xiao looked at her and smiled.
"Big sis Nian, why are you here?" Ye Xiao again asked as he did not think that it was coincident for tong Nian to come when he just returned.
"I come to inform you that you are five days late!" Tong Nian knocked Ye Xiao's forehead and said.
"What do you mean?" Ye Xiao looked at Tong Nian suspiciously.
"I mean that Grandpa Wang left with other candidates five days ago. You are five days late. Where have you been till now? If not for the men that I specifically assigned to inform me when you return, I would not have known that you have already arrived." tong Nian said with a serious face.
"What? I... am five days late?" Ye Xiao almost shouted out in surprise.
He never thought that it will take him more than twenty days to completely merge with the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon and the energy dragon.
"What are you being surprised about. You are behaving as if you don't even know how much time has passed!" Tong Nian looked at Ye Xiao's surprised face and snorted. But when she saw Ye Xiao's unchanging expression, her face stiffened. She once again said, "Are you, by any chance, really don't know how much time it has been since you left?"
Ye Xiao shook his head and confirmed her.
"Just what were you doing that you even forgot the flow of time?" Tong Nian asked seriously this time.
"I have been cultivating!" Ye Xiao said in low voice after all he could not say that he was merging with two dragons in which once was a real dragon while the other one was made up of strange energy.
Tong Nian looked at him deeply when she heard Ye Xiao's answer. When she looked at him, her mouth was left wide open.
"Third Stage of the Martial King Realm?" Tong Nian exclaimed in surprise. Her voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of every single person that was present there at that moment.
Tong Nian also realises that she had done something wrong. She then held Ye Xiao's hand and dragged him away.
They both left the Alchemist Association and arrived at the Treasure Pavilion soon.
Tong Nian took him to a room on the third floor of the Treasure Pavilion, told him to sit down, and when they both sat down, she said, "Just one month ago, you were at the Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm, and in just one month, you went from being a Ninth Stage Origin Core Realm martial artist to the Third Stage of the Martial King Realm. Just what were you doing till now?"
Ye Xiao looked at her speechlessly and helplessly. Before this, he never thought that he will be helpless against a girl whom he took her as an attendant of the Treasure Pavilion.
