My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me-Chapter 124 - 29: Supreme 9-Transformation Dragon Transformation Scripture

Chapter 124: Chapter 29: Supreme 9-Transformation Dragon Transformation Scripture

"The Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture?"

Yang Jing’s face showed a hint of curiosity.

The variety of Cultivation Techniques in the Nine Heavens World was as vast as a sea of smoke. Even Yang Jing only knew a small fraction of them, to say nothing of the techniques practiced by Demons.

As for the Dragon Taming Dong Family, he had indeed heard of their great name.

The Dong Family originated from the Dharma Image Sect, one of the Six Great Sects. They were descendants of Dong Xuanming, the founding ancestor of the Dharma Image Sect. In the thousand years that followed, another member of their family served as the Sect Leader of the Dharma Image Sect before they eventually separated from it. After that, the family’s disciples didn’t exclusively join the Dharma Image Sect, but scattered among the Six Great Sects.

"Senior Brother, are you trying to pull my leg? This Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture is clearly no ordinary Cultivation Technique. The Dragon Taming Dong Family is one of the top clans in the Western Continent. I’m just an Outer Disciple. Even if I knew about it, how could I possibly obtain it?"

The Outer Disciple shook his head.

"This Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture was brought from the Central Continent by the founder of the Dharma Image Sect. It’s said to have come from wall carvings found in an ancient ruin, the Dragon Transformation Pool. Each transformation can elevate the True Dragon Bloodline by one level. Even a snake or python with an extremely diluted bloodline can transform into a Flood Dragon after undergoing six transformations."

Yang Jing was unmoved.

"What Realm is a cultivator at after completing the sixth transformation of the Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture?"

The Outer Disciple choked, then stammered for a good while before finally answering:

"The Void Cultivation Stage."

Yang Jing shot him a look and got up to leave.

"Junior Brother, don’t go!"

The Outer Disciple hurriedly grabbed Yang Jing’s sleeve.

"Senior Brother, you must be joking. For a Foundation Establishment Clan, raising a Guardian Beast to the Foundation Establishment Stage is already a stroke of immense luck, let alone the Void Cultivation Stage. I wonder, has the Dragon Taming Dong Family even managed to raise a Nascent Soul Stage Flood Dragon to this day?"

"AHEM, they don’t have any Nascent Soul Stage dragons, but they do have a few Golden Core Stage fish-dragons and Flood Dragons. Otherwise, where would the Dragon Taming Dong Family’s reputation come from?"

Yang Jing glanced at him.

"Do you have this Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture, Senior Brother?"

The Outer Disciple cupped his hands.

"I don’t have it on me, but I’m acquainted with a disciple from the Dragon Taming Dong Family. If you want it, Junior Brother, you can have the complete version for eight hundred Spirit Stones. It’ll be no problem for your Guardian Beast to cultivate all the way to the Mahayana Stage with it."

"Eight hundred Spirit Stones?"

Yang Jing looked at the disciple with suspicion.

"Senior Brother, just be straight with me. What are the drawbacks of this Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture? Is its progress exceptionally slow? Does cultivating it result in weak combat strength? Or does it require a special Spirit Pill that only the Dragon Taming Dong Family sells?"

The disciple stared at Yang Jing in shock.

"It’s not all of them, is it?"

"It’s not that exaggerated."

Seeing that Yang Jing knew what he was talking about, the Outer Disciple’s enthusiasm for the deal instantly waned.

"This Cultivation Technique was passed down from an ancient Major Sect and needs to be used in conjunction with a Dragon Transformation Pool. An ordinary snake, python, or Spirit Fish with Flood Dragon Bloodline only needs to soak in the Dragon Transformation Pool for a day each month. After cultivating two transformations, they can take on the form of a Flood Dragon, to be used as ’culinary dragons’ for their tendons, bones, flesh, and marrow, or as ’draught dragons’ to pull carriages."

He explained in detail:

"The Dong Family built a replica of the Dragon Transformation Pool within their clan. Although it only has fifty percent of the original’s efficacy, it’s still quite remarkable. They released the Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture, but kept the method for building the Dragon Transformation Pool a secret. Snake Demons and Fish Demons with diluted bloodlines who practice this technique will exhaust their Blood Qi in a single Circulation to convert it into Dragon Qi. If they don’t replenish their Blood Qi, they will literally cultivate themselves to death."

"To cultivate a single Circulation’s worth of Magical Power, it takes over ten days to recover one’s Blood Qi. How could progress not be slow? Moreover, it’s especially easy to hit bottlenecks when practicing this technique. The more diluted the True Dragon Bloodline, the more bottlenecks you’ll face. Even breaking through to the Middle Stage Qi Cultivation is incredibly difficult."

Hearing there were so many drawbacks, Yang Jing was surprisingly relieved.

’So these problems can be solved with water from the Dragon Transformation Pool, right?’ he thought. "Tell me, how many Spirit Stones for a bottle of this water?"

"Junior Brother has a discerning eye! A bottle of water from the Dragon Transformation Pool costs one hundred Spirit Stones, which is enough for a Qi Cultivation Stage Demon to sustain its practice for a month. However, one still needs to supplement their Blood Qi appropriately during cultivation."

"What about at the Foundation Establishment Stage?"

"Seven days!"

The Outer Disciple hastily added.

"But after completing the First Transformation, no matter how diluted the bloodline, its aptitude will still improve somewhat. After that, it can just switch to another Cultivation Technique."

Yang Jing could only sigh in admiration. ’The Dong Family truly lives up to its reputation as a ten-thousand-year-old clan. They’re brilliant businessmen.’ They sold the Cultivation Technique cheap but charged a fortune for the consumables.

"I’d like to purchase a copy of the Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture and some Dragon Transformation Water. Where can I find this Dong Family disciple?"

"Please wait a moment, Junior Brother."

The Outer Disciple was thrilled to have closed a big deal. Fearing Yang Jing might leave, he quickly took out his Sect’s Jade Token to contact the Dong Family disciple.

A quarter of an hour later, a disciple in an Outer Sect Daoist Robe came running over, slightly out of breath. Upon seeing Yang Jing, he immediately spoke with a fawning tone.

"So it is this distinguished-looking Junior Brother who wishes to buy the Dragon Transformation Scripture?"

Yang Jing eyed him with some suspicion. ’Why would a disciple of the grand Dong Family look so down-and-out?’

"That would be me."

Seeing the hesitation in Yang Jing’s eyes, he quickly took out the Jade Talismans of the Dong Family and the Five Elements True Spirit Sect to prove his identity.

"Even in a great clan like the Dong Family, life isn’t easy for us disciples from the side branches."

Yang Jing noted his name before taking out the Spirit Stones.

"I’ll take one Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture and two bottles of Dragon Transformation Water." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The disciple let out a breath of relief. He handed a golden Jade Scroll and two Jade Bottles to Yang Jing and accepted his Spirit Stones.

"I am Dong Yushu. If you need more Dragon Transformation Water in the future, Junior Brother, you can contact me anytime using the Sect’s Jade Talisman."

Yang Jing nodded and directly used a Spirit Stone to read the contents of the Jade Scroll.

As expected of a Cultivation Technique that could be practiced all the way to the Mahayana Stage, the contents of the golden Jade Scroll were more than ten times that of the True Yang Body. The Jade Scroll itself was quite valuable, being the type specially made to store a Sect’s Divine Skill. It even contained vivid, lifelike images to aid Demons of lower intelligence in their practice.

’The Dragon Taming Dong Family really went to great lengths just to sell their Dragon Transformation Water.’

Satisfied, Yang Jing put away the Jade Scroll and Dragon Transformation Water.

An ordinary Dragon Blood Demon might find it difficult to cultivate this Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture to a high Realm and would have to give up halfway. But Yinjiao, a Demon whose Talent was second to none within the Flood Dragon Race, was a different story.

Furthermore, Yinjiao was proficient in Sword Mantras and had comprehended Sword Intent, so the Supreme Nine Transformations of the Dragon Scripture’s lack of offensive methods was not a problem at all.

The only issue was the Dragon Transformation Water required for monthly cultivation. That was a big problem.

His income from farming the Spirit Field would dry up in six months. By then, he would have to find another source of revenue.

With this in mind, Yang Jing began to wander through the Grass Market, hoping to find a suitable way to earn money.

In the Grass Market, it wasn’t uncommon to find various Magical Artifacts, Spiritual Materials, and Spirit Pills that were rarely seen in the formal Marketplaces. The easiest items to sell were still the various Elixirs used for cultivation, especially the Five Elements Pill. They would almost always be sold out within a quarter of an hour of being displayed.

After making a round, he spotted Ji Feng’s stall. More than a dozen self-refined Magical Artifacts were laid out before him, but his stall was deserted. Business was clearly bleak.
