Chapter 30: Dragon God Morph
"It would be our honor to serve you, Senior!" The clan leader quickly bowed, his voice trembling with excitement. He'd feared a calamity was upon them, but now, it felt like fortune had turned in their favor.
This was a golden opportunity to forge a connection with such a powerful figure. With his help, the dream of returning to the Xiao Sect might finally be within reach!
"Don't call me Senior; just call me Young Master," Yun Wuji said, scanning the crowd. His eyes eventually landed on an old man accompanied by two kids.
"You'll be in charge of this," Yun Wuji said, pointing at the old man. "I want the palace ready in two weeks. If you need anything, just report to me."
He always wanted to have a palace, instead of living in a wooden hut. If he added some formations he would be able to store it in his Sky Poison Pearl and release it without damaging it, which is convenient.
Most people in this world have some degree of cultivation which grants them great strength, building a palace in two weeks might be a bit stretched, but it's still possible for their Xiao Clan.
"Me?!" Xiao Lie exclaimed in surprise. He didn't expect to be called by this terrifying senior.
"Yeah, you're the strongest one here," Yun Wuji nodded.
"Young master, this isn't right. Xiao Lie is too old for this kind of work. I'll personally oversee the construction to make sure everything meets your expectations!" The clan leader's heart sank as he quickly interjected.
Xiao Lie frowned but stayed silent. He understood that the clan leader was trying to keep this opportunity away from him.
"Are you trying to tell me what to do?!" Wuji shot a sharp look at him, raising an eyebrow.
"No, no, I didn't mean that!" Xiao Yunhai quickly dropped to his knees, his voice trembling as he apologized profusely.
He felt as if his soul had nearly left his body from that fierce glare.
"Hmph, this is the last time," Yun Wuji snorted in disdain and said, "I'll be staying in your clan until the palace is finished."
"I'll arrange the finest accommodations for you, young master," Xiao Yunhai immediately stood up, his back bent in submission. He was the type who bullied the weak and feared the strong; the more you oppressed and looked down on him, the more he would respect and revere you.
The Xiao Clan prepared the best courtyard for Yun Wuji to stay in, and more than thirty servants to serve his every need.
"You go down, I'll call you when I need something," entering the courtyard, Wuji told the servants to leave.
"Yes!" They bowed in unison and left.
Some of the female servants cast regretful glances at him before leaving.
Yun Wuji pulled out his favorite mattress from the Sky Poison Pearl and sat cross-legged on it. Over the past week, he had been focused on finding ways to stimulate his dragon blood and dragon marrow to enhance his physique and profound veins.
He had initially planned to wait until Jasmine arrived on this planet to get the Great Way of the Buddha, which is a very powerful and unique technique. However, with her arrival still two or three years away and the possibility that his presence might alter the plot, there was no guarantee she would even come to this planet
Although he had already suspected that he was in the first timeline, the one before Yun Che died in his first life, seeing Xiao Che aka Yun Che and Xiao Lingxi confirmed his theory.
This means that the ancestral goddess's will hasn't woken up, and that means that Yun Che doesn't have the sacred body or the help of fate that delivers everything to his doorstep.
To be honest, Wuji admired him a little, the guy rizzed his way to the top starting from his little aunt.
All these Incubus bulshit protagonists, can't do what he did.
The main reason Wuji suspected Jasmine might not come to this planet was because, when he checked the Xia residence, he didn't find Xia Yuanba. Instead, he found Xia Qingyue.
The moment he realized Xia Qingyue's presence, a headache began to throb, and he felt a strong urge for another cigarette.
*Spoiler alert: The plot of the novel will not change, it is just his genius talking.*
He didn't hate Xia Qingyue; in fact, she was one of his favorite characters. However, her presence meant that the plot he was familiar with might not be set in stone, and some things could have changed.
Jasmine might not arrive on this planet. Of course, he wasn't interested in the Evil God's veins though, even if the Evil God himself begged him to take them, he would refuse.
His Unfettered veins were far superior.
Just the fact that he can't be restricted by any rules overshadows all the perks that Evil God's veins offer.
Wuji was more interested in Jasmine than in the Evil God's veins. Having a portable Divine Master was far more advantageous for him.
Anyway, Yun Wuji had been mulling over how to handle his problem for the past week, as it was slowing down his progress with his technique.
Normally, if he waited for the Dragon God's marrow to produce blood, his body and veins would gradually become stronger, but this process would take a very long time.
With only around three decades left before the abyss fuck everything, Yun Wuji naturally couldn't afford to wait for the Dragon God's marrow to gradually produce blood.
Who knows if the Ancestral Goddess will complete her reincarnation by then? Although he knew who her reincarnation was, he didn't have the guts to kill her. And, he also didn't want her to appear at all, she might figure out his identity as a transmigrator and squash him to death without a second thought.
To tackle this problem, Yun Wuji had a thought, why not speed up the production of Dragon Blood?
After a week of contemplation, he came up with an idea to accelerate its production. Based on this idea, he created a new technique aimed at boosting the rate of Dragon Blood production.
Dragon God Morph!
This technique stimulates the dragon god's marrow to generate dragon blood faster. Moreover, depending on how much blood accumulates, it can transform his body into that of a dragon, further strengthening his body.
After cultivating this technique to the peak, Yun Wuji would be able to transform into a dragon god!
He closed his eyes and entered deep meditation, operating the technique.
Soon, his blood started to boil and circulate rapidly, turning his skin a deep red. Surprisingly, he felt no discomfort or pain instead, it was as if he were soaking in a hot spring, experiencing a soothing warmth.
As he continued to operate the technique, his marrow began to pulse rapidly. Each pulse radiated through every corner of his body, causing the temperature of his blood and body to rise with every beat.
After reaching a certain threshold, the marrow's pulsing slowed and eventually ceased. When it stopped, a small, condensed blue energy was released into his bloodstream. This energy circulated through his veins for a while before finally merging with his blood.
Soon, the energy melted with his bloodstream, forming a new drop of dragon blood.
As the new dragon blood took shape inside him, a striking change happened on the outside. Silver-white scales slowly appeared, spreading across his skin like a shimmering wave. They started at his limbs, creeping up his arms and legs, and then moved across his torso. The scales spread at a steady pace, each one catching the light and gleaming like molten silver.
As the scales continued their journey, they covered his entire body, eventually reaching his face. What was once smooth skin was now covered in these shiny, intricate scales. Finally, his entire body was completely covered in a flawless, armor-like layer of sparkling scales.
Yun Wuji stood up and walked over to a human-sized mirror. He removed the upper half of his robe, revealing his toned upper body now covered in shimmering scales.
He moved his arms, rotated his shoulders, and touched his chest. The scales were firm yet flexible. They looked like armor, but they didn't feel uncomfortable, and he could move freely with them.
He pulled his pants and saw that even his 'dragon' was covered in scales.
Dragon scales is the first layer of the Dragon God Morph technique. He would break through the second layer once his body accumulated enough dragon blood.
Although it might seem like he easily condensed a drop of blood in one session, it's not that simple. The only reason he managed to do so was because it was his first time using the technique, which stimulated his marrow. Condensing a second drop will take much longer.
"As expected my genius is limitless!" Yun Wuji stood in front of the mirrios scratching his chin and said narcissistically.
Just as he was reveling in his own genius, Xiao Lie's voice interrupted from outside the courtyard. "Excuse me for the disturbance, young master."
Yun Wuji retracted the scales, donned his robe again, and then stepped out of the room.
