175: Foundation Establishment Great Perfection and High-Grade Spirit Beast

The Fox Immortal looked at the two of them who were still advancing, and a flicker of emotion finally appeared on her face.

"Venerable, do you think it's possible for the two of them to truly cross the dragon gate? As expected of an era of great contention, two such prodigies have appeared this time."

The Demon Venerable looked and shook his head: "Impossible. After all, they are still just Dragon Kin. If they don't become flood dragons, they will never be dragons. This dragon gate can only be crossed after one becomes a flood dragon. However, looking at them, reaching nine hundred meters is about right. This way, they have the potential to become flood dragons. It seems that within a few years, we will have two more exotic beasts here. It's a good thing."

As they spoke, Gu Yuchuan felt himself starting to lose strength. His mental tension could no longer keep his Physical Body moving forward. He had just passed nine hundred meters, while the Ink Scale Demon General had reached about nine hundred and twenty meters. Neither of them could advance any further.

But Gu Yuchuan was unwilling! The dragon gate was right before his eyes; once he crossed it, the rewards would be immense. He wanted to jump over, struggling to keep wagging his tail, trying to advance just a little bit more, but he failed again. He had no way to move forward. His potential and Physical Body had already been pushed to their limits; this was as far as he could go.

The two of them were knocked back one after the other, and this dragon gate event came to an end.

After returning to his body, a surge of power entered him. He could feel his mana starting to grow rapidly, soon reaching the Realm of Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. It didn't stop there; the mana continued to grow, even bringing him closer and closer to the Golden Core Stage.

A drop of Divine Dragon blood entered his Bloodline, and all his blood began to boil. His own Bloodline Rank also underwent a change. He involuntarily transformed into his true form. A single horn appeared on his head, looking extremely fierce and powerful. This signified that he had truly become a High-Grade Spirit Beast, a Horned Dragon, only one step away from being a true flood dragon.

He opened his eyes and found that many Yao Beasts' Bloodlines had evolved. The dragon gate truly lived up to its reputation as the greatest Opportunity for Foundation Establishment Stage yao creatures. Suddenly, the gap widened. However, the one who gained the most benefit was not Gu Yuchuan, but the Ink Scale Demon General.

At this moment, the Ink Scale Demon General flew into the air, and his Physical Body began to change. First was his head, which truly took on the appearance of a Divine Dragon. Gu Yuchuan understood that he was about to become a flood dragon. That was a flood dragon! A true mythical creature with an exotic beast Bloodline. Even without cultivating, as he aged, he would slowly become a Great Perfection of Golden Core Cultivator.

Although he felt envious, he was happy for his second brother. From now on, his brother's cultivation would be very smooth, and his status would be different.

The other's promotion would still take some time. Since no one was leaving, he decided to check his Attribute Panel here. So much time had passed, and with both his Bloodline and cultivation level rising, the panel indeed showed significant changes.

【Subordinates: White Jade Koi Bai Li (Mid-grade Demon Beast, Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivation); Half-Demon Fox Demon Bai Ming (Low-Grade Demonic Beast, Ninth Layer of Qi Refining cultivation); Five-Colored Clam Pei Yu (Mid-grade Demon Beast, Second layer of Foundation Establishment cultivation); Crucian Carp Song Chuan (Mortal Beast, Fifth Level of Qi Refining cultivation); Spirit Fish Yu Qiu (High-grade Demon Beast, Fifth Level of Qi Refining cultivation); Spirit Fish Yu Dong (High-grade Demon Beast, Qi Refining Fourth Layer cultivation); Spirit Fish Yu Linglong (High-grade Demon Beast, Fifth Level of Qi Refining cultivation, First-rank Mid-grade Alchemist); Fox Demon Hu Mingxin (Low-Grade Demonic Beast, Fifth Level of Qi Refining cultivation)】

He spent some time looking through his panel. The changes were indeed quite significant. Setting aside his own cultivation, Bloodline, and divine abilities, the most notable progress was among his subordinates.

With the help of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, Pei Yu had become a Mid-grade Demon Beast. Combined with his Purple Mansion Dao Foundation, his cultivation progressed much faster, and he had already become a Second layer of Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Gu Yuchuan believed he would become a very formidable demon general in the future.

The remaining Hu Mingyu sisters, Yu Qiu, and Yu Linglong had also successively reached the Fifth Level of Qi Refining, advancing by a minor Realm. Although this cultivation level was very low, the speed was acceptable. He believed that after some time, this group of Cultivators would also become the backbone of the Flood Dragon Palace.

At this time, the Ink Scale Demon General also completed his promotion. The Aura of a flood dragon washed over them, pressing down so hard they could barely breathe. Was this the power of a flood dragon? Gu Yuchuan's yearning for this power became even stronger. He hoped that one day, he could also become a flood dragon. He believed that day was not far off.

In fact, he really wasn't far from the flood dragon Bloodline. The benefits of the dragon gate were far more than just this. Many benefits were still undigested in his Bloodline; they would probably only be fully absorbed after he reached the Golden Core Stage. At that time, he would discover his Opportunity to advance to a flood dragon.

After the Ink Scale Demon General's promotion, the Demon Venerable and the Fox Immortal appeared once more. The Demon Venerable looked at them with a very kind expression.

"Very good. Someone actually promoted to an exotic beast Bloodline. This seat is very pleased. It seems that before long, our Cloud Sea Marsh will have another Black Flood Dragon King."

The Ink Scale Demon General immediately bowed and spoke polite words, but it seemed the Demon Venerable was sincere.

"Alright, prepare to head back. Remember, do not spread word of the dragon gate. This is a great Opportunity for the Yao Race. After you return, Cultivate well. In a while, there will be more opportunities for you. You may leave."

After saying that, they departed. A group of people crowded around the Ink Scale Demon General to flatter him, but he used the excuse of his cultivation rising too much in a short time to run off with Gu Yuchuan. This wasn't actually just an excuse; he had continuously promoted from the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer to the Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment in a short period. It was indeed too fast and required secluded cultivation.

The two of them parted ways at the outskirts of the Cloud Sea Marsh. They agreed that after finishing his seclusion, the Ink Scale Demon General would hold a banquet to celebrate becoming an exotic beast.
