405: Chapter 406 Cultivating Dao Soldiers!
Ye Changge looked at the line of text, slightly startled, then shook his head.
"Is it only a Heaven-grade Low Grade Cultivation Technique?"
The Cultivation Techniques he currently possessed included the Yin Yang Creation Art at Heaven-grade High Grade, the Jade Purity Beauty Cultivation Art at Heaven-grade Medium Grade, and the The True Explanation of the Myriad Derivations Talisman Array and the Kunpeng Refining Art at Heaven-grade Low Grade.
Adding one more Heaven-grade Low Grade Cultivation Technique seemed like merely icing on the cake, offering limited improvement to his overall strength.
If the Old Ancestors of those Foundation Establishment Family outside heard this, they would likely be so angry they would vomit three liters of blood on the spot.
One must know that in a region like Zhao State, where Spiritual Qi resources were not particularly abundant, a complete Earth Rank Cultivation Technique was enough to make small and medium-sized families fight tooth and nail, or even resort to violence.
And a Heaven-grade Cultivation Technique? That was basically the treasure of the Sect for major Sects and top-tier families; ordinary Cultivator couldn't even dream of obtaining one, let alone having the chance to catch a glimpse of the Legacy jade slip from afar.
Ye Changge sighed softly in his heart; complaints aside, his hands did not slow down in the slightest.
"Legacy."
He said in a low voice.
The next moment, a massive torrent of information surged into his mind, spreading out through his Divine Sense like a tide.
The entire text of the "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon" was branded into his memory, word for word.
A moment later, Ye Changge slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of surprise flashing in his pupils.
"This 'Flood Dragon Treasure Canon' really has something to it!"
He hadn't felt it when skimming through it just now, but now that he had the complete Legacy, he realized this Cultivation Technique was far more valuable than he had imagined.
The System introduced it as Heaven-grade Low Grade, but after a rough estimation by Ye Changge, its potential and practicality were definitely no less than an ordinary Heaven-grade Medium Grade Cultivation Technique!
First of all, this Cultivation Technique focused mainly on "Transforming into a Flood Dragon".
Cultivating it to Minor Achievement allowed one to condense the image of a Flood Dragon, significantly enhancing Physical Body strength and Bloodline power; cultivating it to Major Achievement allowed one to transform into a real Flood Dragon for a short period! At that time, the strength of one's physique and the thickness of one's mana would far exceed those of ordinary Cultivator of the same Realm by several times!
What was even better was that the power of this Cultivation Technique would increase by several parts in a water environment, making it the king of water battles that grew stronger the more one fought.
"Dual Cultivation of physique and magic, combined with Divine Ability transformations... If this Cultivation Technique were placed in those families with abundant water veins, it would probably be enshrined as a Family heirloom."
Ye Changge's eyes shone with excitement.
But what truly surprised him was not the Cultivation Technique itself.
It was a Secret Art that came with this Cultivation Technique —
"Black Flood Dragon Soldier Refining Curse!"
This was a method for cultivating Dao Soldiers recorded in the "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon".
The Cultivator could condense a "Black Flood Dragon Water Curse" Restriction and implant it into the body of any Yao Beast containing Dragon Clan Bloodline.
Over time, this Restriction would slowly nourish the Yao Beast's Bloodline, purify its Dragon Clan Origin, enhance its foundation, and cause it to gradually transform, eventually becoming an exclusive "black flood dragon dao soldiers".
And more importantly —
Those who cultivated the "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon" had a natural mental connection with these Dao Soldiers.
Not only could they directly command them to form arrays for battle, but even when their own Cultivation Technique reached Major Achievement and they transformed into a Flood Dragon, these Dao Soldiers could merge with them, causing their power to soar!
Ye Changge remembered very clearly what was written in the Legacy description:
"Dao Soldiers can be cultivated up to the third tier at most. When the Cultivator Cultivates the 'Flood Dragon Treasure Canon' to Great Perfection of Major Achievement, the power of the Flood Dragon transformation combined with a hundred black flood dragon dao soldiers can rival a Soul Transformation Cultivator!"
Soul Transformation.
That was a Realm above Nascent Soul, an existence that could not be found anywhere in the entire Zhao State.
Ye Changge took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"Although there is a limit, only third-tier Dao Soldiers, for me, it is already an incredible help."
He was currently only at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection; if he could Cultivate a batch of black flood dragon dao soldiers before Core Formation, even if they were only first or second tier, they would be enough to become a very considerable combat force for the Ye Family.
Moreover —
Ye Changge suddenly remembered something.
At the foot of Longmai Mountain, where he was currently located, there was a rather vast lake.
Although that lake was not a treasure land where Spiritual Vein gathered, it was considered one of the water areas with the most abundant Spiritual Qi near Longmai Mountain.
Every few years, a fish king of Yao Beast containing a trace of Dragon Clan Bloodline would naturally be born in the lake.
Ye Changge had noticed this discovery before.
It was just that at that time, he did not have the method to Cultivate Dao Soldiers, so he had left it alone, assuming it was just a product of occasional Spiritual Qi mutations in the lake.
Now it seemed —
"That lake water probably has a more significant Origin than I imagined."
Ye Changge's eyes flickered slightly.
Being able to produce aquatic creatures containing dragon blood every few years meant that there must be something special beneath that lake water.
Perhaps it was a place where water veins converged, or a lost treasure, or perhaps... the place where a high-level Flood Dragon had fallen.
"After I go back, I must investigate it thoroughly."
He secretly noted this in his heart.
However, even if the Yao Beast fish produced in that lake were not suitable, it didn't matter.
The waterways around Longmai Mountain crisscrossed, and there were many rivers and lakes; it was not difficult to introduce some aquatic fish species containing Dragon Clan Bloodline from other places.
At worst, he could just spend more Spirit Stone and purchase them from the aquatic trade association.
Thinking of this, Ye Changge was very satisfied.
However, when he continued to read the last part of the "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon", the smile on his face suddenly froze.
"Hmm?"
He frowned slightly.
He saw a piece of inconspicuous text lying quietly at the end of the Legacy —
[Note: Those who practice the "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon" will have their fertility affected to a certain extent because their internal Qi and blood are permeated by the power of the Flood Dragon. Although it will not lead to childlessness, the difficulty of conceiving offspring will be increased several times compared to ordinary Cultivator. Please consider carefully and make a cautious decision.]
Ye Changge: "..."
He stared at that line of text for a long time.
"It even comes with this?"
He couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
This Cultivation Technique was good in every way, but this side effect... was truly fatal.
What had Ye Changge relied on to Cultivate until now?
He relied on the "many children, many blessings system"! He relied on constantly taking wives, constantly having children, and constantly receiving feedback!
If he practiced this "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon" and it became difficult to conceive offspring in the future, wouldn't the System be mostly ruined?
Ye Changge's expression changed uncertainly, and for a moment, he was even hesitant.
But soon, he shook his head.
"It's not a big deal."
He muttered to himself.
"I already have dozens of children now, and my direct Bloodline is already prosperous enough. Even if my fertility drops, it is only 'the difficulty is increased several times', it is not complete sterilization. Furthermore, I have already drawn quite a few Cultivation Techniques from the System; I don't necessarily have to Cultivate every single one myself."
The "Flood Dragon Treasure Canon" was actually most suitable to be passed on to the next generation of the Ye Family to Cultivate.
Those children who did not have High Grade Spiritual Root but were full of enthusiasm and wanted to contribute to the Family could Cultivate this technique and Cultivate a batch of black flood dragon dao soldiers; not only would their own strength increase greatly, but they could also become an important combat force for the Family.
