Chapter 159: Cultivating The Second Layer

Ye Xiao once again appeared in his room. He took a bath first and then walked out of his room. When he walked out of the room, he saw Tong Nian not far away.

"Big sis Nian!" Ye Xiao arrived behind her and said.

"Ye Xiao! Are you done with your cultivation?" When Tong Nian heard a voice from behind, she turned and saw that it was Ye Xiao.

"Hmm! Big sis Nian, how long have I been cultivating?" Ye Xiao nodded his head and asked.

"It is been ten days!" Tong Nian smiled and replied.

"So it means I was refining the Heavenly Thunder for one month inside the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda!" Ye Xiao muttered in a very low voice.

"What are you muttering?" When Tong Nian saw Ye Xiao muttering something but could not understand what he was muttering, she asked directly.

"Eh! Nothing. I was just thinking about something!" Ye Xiao hurriedly shook his head.

"You can continue cultivating. There are still five days left before we can arrive at the Grand Xia Empire!" Tong Nian smiled and said when she said the first sentence, she pressured it as if there was a hidden meaning behind it.

Ye Xiao did not notice that. He nodded his head and said, "Ok then, I'm going!"

With that, he once again entered his room, closed the door, and disappeared with a slight ripple in the air of the room.

On the other hand, Tong Nian was looking at his disappearing back speechlessly. She didn't know what to say.

"This brat... He really deserves a beating!"

She shook her head and subconsciously, a smile appeared on her face.

Ye Xiao once again entered the Heavenly Pearl as he wanted to cultivate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.

Before entering the Secret Realm, he wanted to increase his strength as much as he can as it will be easier in the Secret Realm.

Without wasting any time, he once again arrived at the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda, sat down cross-legged, took a long breath, and started to circulate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.

Seeing that he was able to circulate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he immediately became excited.

When he was still cultivating the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, he tried to circulate the Second Layer but failed. Now that he was able to successfully circulate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique, how could he not become excited?

What does it mean to be able to cultivate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique?

It means that he can now create another dragon inside his sea of consciousness. It means that he can gain new abilities from the new dragon. It means that he can again become powerful.

Ye Xiao was circulating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique with all his might. He fully focused on circulating the Second Layer of his cultivation technique.

Time continues to pass but there were no changes in his sea of consciousness. But he did not discourage. Ye Xiao did not give up, he continues to circulate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.

He did not know how much time but still, no matter how focused he was circulating the Second Layer of his cultivation technique, he was not able to create the second dragon inside his sea of consciousness.

Ye Xiao was disappointed. Just as he was about to give up, he felt a slight ripple in his sea of consciousness. He immediately became excited as he understood that the Second Dragon is about to form in his sea of consciousness.

Excitedly, he started to circulate the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique with all his might.

He saw a cocoon that was covered with snaking patterns appearing in his sea of consciousness. It was like a dragon egg. The cocoon with snaking pattern slowly shimmered, one moment light, one moment dark. An intensely potent fluctuation of life blazed within this cocoon, seeming to be closely connected to Ye Xiao's body.

"This is..."

Seeing this, Ye Xiao was surprised. Previously, when he formed the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, there was no such cocoon formed. The body of the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon was directly formed but now, when he was trying to create his second dragon, its creation process was different.

Ye Xiao faintly felt that his flesh and blood essence began to gather together, and when it happened, the vitality within the cocoon inside his sea of consciousness seemed to gather with Ye Xiao's own vitality.

The small life within the cocoon was finally ready to emerge!

A dazzling divine light shined. Inside his sea of consciousness, it was like a sun was dawning. It looked incredibly beautiful!

In the center of this cocoon, one could faintly make out a small embryonic life form that was slowly breeding.

However, this life form was even smaller than a baby in a mortal mother's belly. It was only the size of a palm and looked extremely fragile.

Within his sea of consciousness, the cocoon slowly started to grow and in the blink of an eye, it had grown by several times and the walls of the cocoon were transparent and thin, pulsating with life. One could clearly see the life that was being bred within.

This small life was ruddy and clear all over as if it were carved from the most beautiful jade. It was moving within the cocoon as if it was enjoying this slow pace of growth.

Pa! Pa!

The cocoon pulsated as if blood was beating within it.

On the surface of the cocoon, few cracks began to appear.

Kacha!

The crack began to spread throughout the cocoon.

"BOOM!"

With a loud sound, an explosion echoed in his sea of consciousness. The fluctuation in his sea of consciousness became so heavy that it forced Ye Xiao to withdrew.
