Chapter 432 - 428: Unseen Divinities

The True Dragon Transmutation Method was an exquisite cultivation method, but its name was definitely deliberately embellished. After all, unless one took the third method, consuming numerous strands of unrefined lifeforce, how would one refine essence blood enough to produce a trace of a True Dragon’s bloodline aura?

One would have to excavate deeply into the dragon’s blood, hoping to bring forth its hidden ancestral lineage. According to the method itself, Anu and the other draconic lineages were considered beasts, but True Dragons and those of equal lineages weren’t referred to as such. They were called Divine Myths of Heaven.

They weren’t beasts, but existences that predated beasts. They might be gods of some higher form of existence, a greater world like the rumored realm of immortals mentioned in stories and folklore. But Wei Wuyin didn’t feel like a god, likely because his bloodline level was far too low.

He knew that divinities existed in this vast world, and some legends told in folklore and stories of the crazed and delusional held truth within them. He had been to Hell, faced the Heavens, observed reincarnation, saw the Yellow Springs, and possessed the Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity that had stated its abilities to observe unseen divinities!

He knew better than anyone that the existence of gods was real!

As for these Divine Myths of Heaven, this might simply be one of their names referred to them by their beastly descendants like Anu as a display of utmost respect. Others might even call them Divine Beasts, who knew?

Regardless, the True Dragon Transmutation Method was divided into three different conceivable methods of cultivation. The first method was the insertion and refinement of essence blood into one’s heart, transforming the blood cells it oxygenates, making it produce dragon blood. But because of this, the body would undergo changes to adapt to the new blood, making the individual partially a dragon, losing their humanity as a result. The cultivator would be left with uncontrollable mutations, destructive urges, bestial instincts, but gain a stronger physical form and innate physical energies.

The second method focused on transforming one’s innate yang energies, allowing the birth of Dragonborn children. This would result in those like Lian Yu and Yuan Longshi, and they would receive intangible benefits for their cultivation.

For example, Lian Yu was a powerful water-attributed cultivator who made a name for herself in the Myriad Yore Continent, blessed with extraordinary looks and talent. The draconic lineage had invisibly helped her become powerful, and if it wasn’t for the King of Everlore’s departure, the decline of Alchemy, she might’ve reached extraordinary heights.

Wei Wuyin had decided to not cultivate this method due to the ticking clock that hung at his neck, the Calamities of Hell. He didn’t wish to have children and be unable to protect them, watch them grow into fine women and men. He knew how it felt to lose a parent and he wouldn’t knowingly do that to his own children.

He had decided to cultivate the third method: Birthing a Divine Mark of Myth! It was both similar and fundamentally different from beastmen who used their hearts as dantians! He would transform the Divine Mark of Myth into a Spirit, housing it within his heart, and having it grow!

His Divine Mark of Myth had always been Kratos’ true form!!

By making it his Spirit for cultivation, he cultivated a Draconic Heart of Blood Qi, containing draconic blood energies that would take the same cultivation path as other spirits, strengthening itself as a result! It also had a restriction, and that it required an individual that hadn’t cultivated a Heart of Qi!

Wei Wuyin now knew that Anu had left this method in the hopes of a powerful expert that might’ve missed the mark for their schemes, to be an alternative to focus their all on raising their child in the most appropriate fashion, allowing them to cultivate and hide from the Divine King’s prejudiced gaze. Even today, not a single individual could discover his Draconic Heart!

Even though he couldn’t see through it with his spiritual sense, he had already seen its true form! And...

And...

His eyes brightened to match the brightness of the solar stars in the sky, betraying his extreme disbelief and excitement!

"...Absolutely incredible! Is that how divine dragons look...? They’re...perfect!" The more he recalled Kratos’ appearance, the more he felt awed by it all. He was lost in himself for a long moment, and then an explosive thought emerged in his excited mind: "I have the ability of Draconification!!!"

The thought of mimicking a portion of this exquisitely perfect form caused him to feel indescribable excitement.

He felt the surging blood energies flowing out of his heart, feeling its innate quality, and immediately used the method to measure its grade. "It’s at the Fifth Stage of the Mark of Mortal Myth!" He had leapt two full stages, approaching the peak of the Mortal-Grade!

Immersed in this feeling, he could view his cells change, expanding wildly and capable of carrying several times more physical energies than normal. The restrictions of his physical body were being lifted as his blood flowed!

But he had six million desolate pearls left! His heart throbbed intensely, and an explosive thought surfaced in his mind!

"Let’s do it!" Kratos urged from behind its concealing mist. Wei Wuyin laughed wildly, feeling like trying to see if he could breach the Mortal-Grade as well! He would refine all six million desolate pearls!!

But he stopped for a moment, looking at Kratos concealed by mist. He couldn’t understand why he was unable to view his form anymore, curious about this development he asked, but the answer was quite shocking.

Kratos snorted arrogantly, stating with immense pride: "Mortals can’t see the form of divinities!"

"..." When those words were said, Wei Wuyin felt as if he realized a worldly truth. The only reason he could see its externalized form was due to his Celestial Eyes! Those eyes of his had the ability to observe Unseen Divinities! But he was still skeptical, raising a brow with uncertainty. "You’re a divine existence now?"

King gave a laughing ’tch’, clearly revealing the truth, but it didn’t elaborate...as always.

"..." Kratos went completely silent, its prideful voice no longer emerging.

Wei Wuyin quickly discovered why and shook his head with a quiet smile. While Kratos might have the form of a divine existence, it was far, far off from becoming one. Although, this made it extremely clear why he’d never seen a true dragon’s form before! No wonder there were absolutely no depictions of it anywhere! It was like a whole new creature!

With an excited breath, tossed that thought to the side, thinking of the six million desolate pearls needing to be refined. "Let’s begin!"
