236: Optimized! A transformative Dragon Blood Tempering Method!
By the time Chen Heng walked out of the tent, the Formation for Dragon Blood Body Tempering and all the Materials for the dragon blood bath were ready.
Some medicinal herbs Chen Heng had never seen before floated in the steaming dragon blood, and waves of medicinal fragrance mixed with the scent of dragon blood filled the entire temporary camp.
A large group of Eastern Demon Alliance higher-ups, including General Feng and the Demon Emperor, were watching from the periphery with eager eyes.
But they didn't even dare to get closer to look, only able to glance from afar.
The only one who casually walked in was Luo Shuo; that kid was even more carefree than Chen Heng.
"Big Brother Chen, what are you doing?"
Luo Shuo leaned over the tub, sniffing the dragon blood and herbs inside.
"It's strange, but it smells good."
"Go, go, go, this is my bathwater, what are you sniffing around for?"
Chen Heng pushed Luo Shuo aside and pulled off the loincloth from his waist.
"Wait!" A worried Bai Jun suddenly grabbed Chen Heng.
"Big Brother Chen, I'm really not sure what the effects will be. What if something goes wrong?"
"It's fine, don't worry. The toughest thing about me is this life of mine."
Chen Heng wasn't worried about anything going wrong at all. If worst came to worst, he could just bathe while activating his Asura Undying Body.
Dying twice wasn't a big deal.
His Qi and blood had completely recovered, enough to be squandered.
"Alright then…" Bai Jun sighed. He somewhat regretted telling Chen Heng about the Dragon Blood Body Tempering.
Big Brother Chen had been kind to him; if anything happened to Big Brother Chen, he would regret it for a lifetime.
"All set." Chen Heng gave Bai Jun a thumbs-up, then lifted his leg and sat into the tub… Beside him, the Demon Emperor, whose lower body had already grown back a bit, looked thoughtful.
"Old Feng, do you think Mr. Chen might be trying to use that secret technique?"
"You mean Dragon Blood Body Tempering?" General Feng frowned (only he himself knew).
"Yes, before the Dragon Clan completely disappeared, some people tried it, but I heard it was a near-death experience."
"dragon blood's erosion of the body is too fierce; very few people can endure it."
The Demon Emperor nodded, looking worriedly at Chen Heng in the distant tub.
"Moreover, the Formation set up by that young Mr. Bai is somewhat different from the legends here…"
"Hmm, there are indeed a few differences." General Feng carefully observed the Formation set up by Bai Jun; it was completely different from the Formations passed down in the Yao Race.
"And even Dragon Blood Body Tempering isn't entirely done with dragon blood; just a few drops added to the medicinal soup are enough."
"This is a few drops of medicinal soup added to dragon blood…"
"It should be fine, right? After all, the evil Dragon was beaten to death by Mr. Chen."
The Demon Emperor rubbed his chin.
"I don't know, let's see."
..."Big Brother Chen, I'm going to start." Bai Jun took a deep breath and looked up at Chen Heng.
"Just do it, don't be like that woman."
Chen Heng submerged his entire body into the dragon blood, holding his breath and concentrating.
"Hoo…"
Bai Jun focused his mind and activated the large Formation, which was fifty meters in diameter.
Crimson light flickered, and the dragon blood, which had only been steaming, slowly began to boil.
"It seems to have worked?" Bai Jun let out a long breath as he watched the Formation run smoothly.
Just then, Chen Heng, completely submerged in the dragon blood, opened his eyes.
The large words 'Optimization' glowed brightly before his eyes.
"This Dragon Blood Body Tempering can also be Optimized?" Chen Heng really hadn't expected this thing could be Optimized.
Adhering to the principle that anything after Optimization is better than before Optimization, Chen Heng clicked Optimize without any hesitation.
As expected, this Optimization consumed one Optimization attempt.
["Dragon Blood Body Tempering (Pseudo)" Optimization successful → True dragon blood Body Refining Method]
[True dragon blood Body Refining Method: Dragon Blood Body Tempering, mortal body transforms into Dragon bones, Dragon tendons, Dragon skin, dragon blood Body Refining, mortal blood exchanges for dragon blood, complete metamorphosis!]
"Holy crap, that sounds awesome!"
Chen Heng hadn't expected the effect of this Dragon Blood Body Tempering after Optimization to be so good.
Although he didn't know what the effect of the "Dragon Blood Body Tempering (Pseudo)" was, it was certainly better after Optimization than before. There was no need to doubt it.
"Come on, let me see the effect of this complete metamorphosis…"
Composing himself, Chen Heng once again held his breath and concentrated.
Compared to Chen Heng, who was leisurely inside the dragon blood, Bai Jun outside suddenly felt an unparalleled pressure.
"What… what's going on?"
Bai Jun's face was pale; the spiritual power within him was disappearing at an extremely fast rate.
The Formation before him was like a bottomless pit, constantly devouring him.
"Not good! Spiritual power is running out!"
Feeling a sudden premonition, Bai Jun immediately opened his cloth bag and pulled out a handful of blood and qi replenishing pills, stuffing them into his mouth.
But even so, it still couldn't fill the void of spiritual power being taken by the Formation; his face remained pale!
If this continued, not only would his spiritual power be drained, but the Dragon Blood Body Tempering would definitely fail!
No one knew the consequences of failure, but it was definitely not what Bai Jun wanted to see.
"Master! Help me out!"
Unable to do anything else, Bai Jun shouted to Qiu Yongling, who was still sulking.
Qiu Yongling turned her head to look in Bai Jun's direction.
It wasn't a problem not looking, but once she looked, she realized something was wrong.
Although she and Chen Heng had some disagreements, it was her disciple who was in trouble now, and she couldn't ignore it.
After only a moment of hesitation, Qiu Yongling rushed forward and placed her hand on Bai Jun's body.
An endless stream of spiritual power poured into Bai Jun's body, greatly alleviating the pressure on him.
But after a few seconds, Qiu Yongling's face also gradually began to turn pale.
"Juner! What kind of Formation did you create?" Qiu Yongling's forehead was covered in cold sweat. Where did her disciple learn this kind of bottomless pit!
"Dragon Blood Body Tempering, I saw it in a storybook from the sect…"
Bai Jun's face was still bloodless, but he still endured the feeling of emptiness and continued to input spiritual power into the Formation.
"That was just a story! How could you take it seriously!"
Qiu Yongling never imagined that her disciple would actually create a Formation based on a story from a storybook.
And that Chen Heng even dared to use it; wasn't he afraid of dying inside?
"Don't just stand there! Come over and help!"
Qiu Yongling knew that the spiritual power of just herself and Bai Jun would definitely not be enough for this Formation to devour.
Fortunately, there were also the Twenty-Four Saints and three Emperor-level Great Demons around, which should be enough to handle it.
Aunt Hu was the first to act, injecting her light green demonic power into the Formation.
"Old Feng, Mr. Chen is a great benefactor to our Eastern Demon Alliance; watching from the sidelines won't do."
The Demon Emperor smiled slightly, clapped his palm on the ground, and landed at the edge of the Formation.
General Feng shook his head and followed suit.
Golden-red demonic power and ink-black demonic power simultaneously poured into the Formation, but the Formation still showed no signs of being satisfied.
"What the hell is this thing?!"
The Demon Emperor frowned; he felt his demonic power being rapidly drained, and it wouldn't be long before he was completely sucked dry.
"Everyone, come over and help me!"
