280: Chapter 280 Purple Dragon King Aura, Fifth-Order Magical Beast Physique

"You should go into seclusion first and refine the Taixu Purple Dragon Pill to temper your physique. It will be safer when you are out and about!"

"If you are lucky, you might even have an unexpected harvest!"

Elder Dan withdrew his Dou Qi, and the jade bottle containing the Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill appeared before his eyes. A smile spread across his aged face.

Hu!

Hun Tiandi took a deep breath, put away the Taixu Purple Dragon Pill, left the Star Palace, and headed toward the Time Tower.

"Qing Yue, get ready. We will go out together after I come out of seclusion!" he said indifferently.

"Yes, Young Master!" Qing Yue recovered from her panic and nodded heavily upon hearing this.

Time Tower.

Hun Tiandi flipped his palm, and an exquisite jade bottle manifested in his hand. His eyes were fixed on the jade bottle, a hint of burning desire appeared in his gaze, and his throat moved as he swallowed.

Beneath his calm exterior, his heart beat increasingly faster. In the presence of such a precious pill, he felt extremely excited.

Crack!

With a grip of his hand, the jade bottle shattered. A wisp of purple light immediately burst out from the fragments, illuminating everything within a half-mile radius with an incredibly brilliant purple glow.

Fortunately, he was inside the Time Tower. If this were in the outside world, under the temptation of a Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill like the Taixu Purple Dragon Pill...

...excluding peak-level experts or those not skilled in body tempering...

...many people would likely be unable to hide the greed in their hearts. Killing to seize the treasure would absolutely happen.

"Eat it. Keeping it on your person is a disaster waiting to happen!" Elder Dan's grave voice sounded in his ears.

Blood-colored Dou Qi surged over his palm, immediately blocking all the erupting purple light.

In his palm, the surface of the Taixu Purple Dragon Pill was rich with purple light. A tangible purple divine dragon rotated within the pill, occasionally emitting faint dragon roars.

It seemed to possess a strange power that made the soul tremble.

Gulp!

It was indeed a Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill; it actually had such terrifying power, interfering with his soul power and making his head spin.

He stuffed it into his mouth. Before he could chew, the treasure pill turned into a warm current and flowed down his throat into his abdomen.

The purple pill circled and rotated in his abdomen, continuously releasing medicinal power.

A surging and torrential heat, like boiling water, spread throughout his body.

He sat cross-legged, and his soul power surged in to begin sorting out the violent energy within his body. In the blink of an eye, changes occurred within him.

"Damn it, it hurts. The medicinal power is constantly washing over my body, and there's an itching sensation inside as if ants are gnawing at me..."

Hun Tiandi gritted his teeth, enduring the pill's tempering of his flesh. Throughout his limbs and bones, the greatest change was in the dragon bone on his back.

Originally, the tempering of the Sword Bone had only two segments left unrefined.

But under the medicinal power of the Purple Dragon Pill, they transformed into Sword Bone at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His entire body glowed with purple light, crystalline and translucent. Outside his body, it seemed as if a purple dragon was circling, emitting the terrifying aura of a high-rank monster.

"Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill, it really packs a punch!"

Blood flowed from the corner of Hun Tiandi's mouth. The purple medicinal power washed over his meridians; his organs, cells, and blood were all absorbing the Purple Dragon Pill frantically, like a parched sponge.

He sank his soul power into his body. His heartbeat became increasingly powerful, glowing with a red light, and under the tempering of the medicinal power, its functions became stronger.

Next was the liver, which glowed with green light, giving a feeling of vitality.

The spleen glowed with white light, governing digestion and making his whole body feel comfortable. The lungs glowed with golden light, like sharp weapons. The most important was the kidneys.

They shone with a purple-black light, and his whole body was filled with vigor, terrifyingly powerful.

Even his blood, under the baptism of the Purple Dragon Pill, saw its original deep red color stained with wisps of purple light. Hun Tiandi's aura changed invisibly.

His body trembled. The dragon bone tempering was complete, and he began to temper his sternum. This Sword Bone could not be rushed.

Skin, flesh, tendons, bones, marrow—layer by layer, he tempered them repeatedly. Hun Tiandi clearly felt his physique strengthening.

It frantically impacted his flesh, and his Qi and blood surged.

If one were to categorize it, his physical body had broken through the Great Dou Master level and ascended to the Dou Wang level. Among the monster clans, his physical body was now equivalent to that of a fourth-rank monster.

This was a qualitative change.

"Not bad. After refining the Taixu Purple Dragon Pill, you might be able to inherit the Purple Dragon King Qi contained within the purple dragon's essence blood."

"This Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill was refined using purple dragon essence blood, so it naturally contains dragon Qi. This is also why the pill emits dragon roars, which make people feel their souls being oppressed and trembling."

Elder Dan stood to one side and spoke indifferently.

Time passed. Hun Tiandi continuously refined the Purple Dragon Pill. The medicinal power was rapidly consumed and absorbed by his physique, and the dragon-eye-sized pill gradually shrank.

Crack!

A shattering sound emerged from the deepest part of his physical body. The medicinal power of the Purple Dragon Pill completely dissolved and merged into the marrow sea in the deepest part of his body.

A young purple dragon appeared behind his back, ferocious yet noble, manifesting in the world.

Roar!

A dragon roar emerged from within Hun Tiandi's body. The Purple Dragon King Qi erupted from the inside out, from the deepest part of his physique.

In an instant, the Purple Dragon King Qi permeated his whole body, tempering his roots and bones. This was an instinctive transformation, and his Qi and blood surged at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The figure sitting cross-legged had the Purple Dragon King Qi circulating. His Qi and blood were transforming, changing from bright red to pale purple, pure as jade.

It radiated the majesty of a true dragon.

"Success, the Purple Dragon King Qi!" Elder Dan said excitedly.

Huh! The Heavenly Demon Body Tempering Method had actually broken through to the third level, capable of erupting with four times the power. Feeling the surging power within his body, a sense of satisfaction arose in his heart.

Hun Tiandi's mind stirred, and the phantom of the young purple dragon retracted into his body. He continuously circulated his Dou Qi, rotating it at high speed, and wisps of blood-colored Dou Qi gushed out.

Like a bursting flood, it whistled through his meridians.

A faint mist appeared on the surface of his body, enveloping his figure. Without active control, there was a faint tendency for it to condense into Dou Qi armor.

The Dou Qi was like a giant wind vortex, rotating at high speed and emitting sharp whistling sounds. His meridians even seemed to feel a stinging pain.

This was still with the meridians strengthened by the Purple Dragon Pill; otherwise, they would have already snapped under the high-speed rotation of the Dou Qi.

Within the Qi vortex, wisps of strange purple energy were flung out, manifesting into a small purple dragon. Under his guidance, it rushed straight to his throat.

The next moment, the small purple dragon, emitting faint dragon Qi, burst out from his mouth.

Roar!

Under the roar of the Purple Dragon Qi, waves of dragon cries echoed, making the soul tremble and resounding throughout the entire Time Tower.

If Elder Dan hadn't acted to seal the space, the dragon roar would have long since spread into the Dazheng Dynasty region, and who knows how much trouble that would have caused.

"This guy's luck has always been very good!" Elder Dan said softly.

Hu!

Hun Tiandi suddenly opened his eyes, and two rays of purple light erupted from them. He gulped down a few mouthfuls of spirit wine to soothe the burning sensation in his throat.

"Hehehe, a fifth-rank monster physique!"

"The Taixu Purple Dragon Pill is truly terrifying!"

He threw a punch, and the energy of heaven and earth trembled violently. The air exploded, and the shrill whistling of the wind made people restless.

"Teacher, the benefit you mentioned is the Purple Dragon King Qi!"

"Yes. You need to develop the wonderful uses of the Purple Dragon King Qi yourself!" Elder Dan smiled, with a look of satisfaction.

Excitement appeared on Hun Tiandi's delicate face. This Purple Dragon Pill had made his physical body comparable to that of a fifth-rank monster, which significantly improved his strength.

He had also obtained the Purple Dragon King Qi, and the Heavenly Demon Body Tempering Method had broken through to the third level, which was also an unexpected joy.

It gave him an extra means of attack, and this thing would be of great help to him.
