Chapter 56 Chapter 55 Bronze One Star

Three months is neither long nor short, but for Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang, who were fully engrossed in their cultivation, it seemed as if the time passed in the blink of an eye. Almost on the same day, without relying on any external force and solely through their own efforts, they both reached the Bronze One-Star level!Although Xin Yun had started condensing his power a month earlier, it's important to note that solidifying a 9.9-grade Dragon Creation Stone is inherently more difficult than a Ninth Grade. From a certain perspective, this also reflects the grade of the Dragon Creation Stone.

Of course, Yi Luo Xiang's wisdom and talent played a part, but Xin Yun also had his own experience and understanding which could totally offset that gap.

In fact, the higher the grade of the Dragon Creation Stone, the more time it requires to advance, and the greater the difficulty. The so-called ranks and star positions are actually defined by the quality of energy, not quantity!

Both are at the Bronze One-Star level, but Xin Yun's energy is more than ten times that of Brother Da, and his recovery speed is also over ten times faster. In terms of the depth of energy, there is too much difference. Although they are the same in quality, the quantity is nearly ten times less!

If we liken dragons to cars, then energy is steam, natural gas, diesel, gasoline, aviation fuel... If we set steam at the Bronze One-Star level, then natural gas would be at the Silver One-Star, diesel at the Gold One-Star. It's a qualitative difference, not one that quantity can replace; no amount of steam can ever become gasoline!

Do not underestimate the role of quantity. Though a change in quantity cannot convert into a change in quality, once there is enough quantity, its power can rival that of quality. A small ripple might not take lives, but a super tsunami can instantly swallow a city with millions of people!

This principle is the same as having profound Inner Strength. Everyone may want it, but high-grade Dragon Creation Stones are not something everyone can obtain.

"Azure Sea!" With Xin Yun's shout, on the Dragon Stance Platform, Xin Yun smiled and spread his arms wide. Amidst bubbling sounds, millions of dreamlike bubbles rose from the ground, filling the sky with their fantastical reflections. Then...

all the bubbles shone brightly, before suddenly converging together, forming a Giant Dragon over thirty meters long and three meters thick in diameter that appeared on the vast Dragon Stance Platform.

Upon closer inspection, the azure Giant Dragon twisted in the air, its dragon head hanging low. Sharply pointed horns extended backward from its head, and Xin Yun stood smiling, with his arms folded, between the two horns.

Looking at the thirty-meter-long, grand and majestic azure Giant Dragon, Yi Luo Xiang clapped her hands joyfully, her eyes filled with admiration. In comparison with Brother Da's Pig Dragon, the difference between the two dragons was immense. One seemed destined to wallow in the muck, while the other born to soar through the heavens!

Seeing Yi Luo Xiang's exuberant expression, Xin Yun couldn't help but laugh. Looking down at her on the ground, he said, "Alright, stop being happy for me. Quickly... summon your dragon, so that I can properly enjoy this moment for you."

"Okay..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang excitedly nodded, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, her gaze had completely calmed. With a flash of brilliance in her eyes, she elegantly extended her right hand to the side, her fingers reaching forward...

"Purple Butterfly!" Following Yi Luo Xiang's crisp, tender shout, suddenly... bright pink light filled the heavens and earth. Buds of delicate roses burst open one after another—first one, then two... and quickly becoming thousands, tens of thousands.

In an instant, within a hundred-meter radius, the entire space was enveloped in pink, as rose blooms the size of bowls bloomed, their fragrance wafting through the air.

As each rose shyly opened its petals, streaks of purple light, shaped like butterflies, started to flutter playfully among the multitude of flowers. In the air, countless wisps of purple mist sprinkled down like pollen...

Finally, as if a storm passed through, pink petals danced wildly in the air, completely covering the space within a hundred meters. Amid the delicate petals, streaks of purple butterfly shadows joyfully flapped their wings, emitting a purple glow all around.

The chaotic blossoms were about to dazzle the eyes when the countless pink petals finally completely obscured everyone's vision. Then, as the light and shadow converged, the petals gradually vanished, revealing a massive purple butterfly suspended in mid-air.

Although it was not the first time Xin Yun had witnessed this scene, no matter how many times he saw it, he was always shaken by the beauty that seemed to reach the limits—a dragon of the utmost beauty, even the energy fluctuations upon its entrance were exquisitely stunning. In all the world, who could compare to this sight?

What astonished Xin Yun the most was that even when Yi Luo Xiang performed the Lingual Incantation Spell for the first time, she did so with outstanding flair, as if she were an old hand at it. The difficulty involved was certainly not something an ordinary person could imagine.

The so-called Lingual Spirit, some might think that the loud exclamation Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang made while summoning the dragon was just for show, a bit of grandstanding! But in fact, this was not the case; it was actually an application of the Lingual Spirit Technique, enhancing the summoning's effect and power.

The Lingual Spirit is, naturally, about using language to increase connectivity. The language consists of the two phrases shouted before the summoning—Azure Sea and Flash Butterfly. Summoning is possible without shouting them, but without the Lingual Spirit Technique's enhancing effect, the dragons summoned are not as strong as those called forth using the Lingual Spirit.

Lingual Spirit is about using one's voice for intense self-suggestion, then boosting connectivity, which is essentially the same as divine ability. Divine ability is called divine power, while the abilities of other, non-divine beings are known as connectivity.

Not to mention the Lingual Spirit, nor the energy fluctuations during the Flash Butterfly's appearance, looking around, the giant purple butterfly was gently flapping its wings, gracefully hanging in the air. And Yi Luo Xiang, in her tight purple warrior attire, was lightly covering her mouth in surprise at the scene she had created.

If Xin Yun's entrance was dreamy, then Yi Luo Xiang's was beautiful, especially with the sight of thousands of flowers in bloom and the dance of the Purple Butterflies, which were undoubtedly beautiful to the extreme!

The purple butterfly was enormous, with a total of four wings; the front pair being larger, and the back pair smaller. The wings were composed of varying hues of purple including bright, light, pale, deep, and dark purple.

On either side of the butterfly's wings, near the outer edges, there were rows of nine pairs of white spots. The spots were beautifully outlined in vivid purple colors.

The body of the butterfly was not bulky but delicate and slender with six thin legs, a head with a proboscis coiled like a mosquito coil, and a pair of large, bright eyes. It also had a pair of mallet-shaped antennae.

The Flash Butterfly's most powerful weapon was its pair of mallet-shaped antennae, which actually referred to a short stick with a spherical structure attached to it. These mallet-shaped antennae served as launchers, capable of emitting the combined Power of the Soul of Yi Luo Xiang and the Flash Butterfly.

In his previous life, although Yi Luo Xiang's Flash Butterfly was also very powerful, ranking sixth among the masters, Xin Yun remembered clearly that at that time, these antennae were merely short sticks without the mallet-shaped structures. It seemed... this was a new feature added by the Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone, similar to Xin Yun's fifth Dragon Claw!

Apart from the antennae, the other feature worth mentioning was the Flash Butterfly's compound eyes. The luminous compound eyes consisted of over fifteen thousand tiny individual eyes. They were hexagonal wedges, larger at the top and pointed at the bottom, with each tiny eye closely attached to its neighbor's side.

With so many eyes, every segment of space could be completely locked down, any anomaly in any location could not escape Yi Luo Xiang's perception.

It could be said that with Flash Butterfly present, sneak attacks and the like were out of the question, because it was impossible to attempt stealth under the gaze of fifteen thousand eyes—isn't that laughable?

Of course, these eyes weren't just for preventing sneaky attacks but were more importantly for escaping dangerous situations swiftly. Once things took a turn for the worse, a decision could be made instantly, whether to fight or flee was very leisurely.
