Chapter 29: Creating a Dragon Pearl in the Body!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yang Tian did not know why Drago wanted him to consume a Grade Three Beast Core. However, he believed that the little dragon had his reasons.
Yang Tian took out the red Grade Three Beast Core and put it in his mouth.
As the Grade Three Beast Core slid into his gut, the heat began to spread in Yang Tian’s body just as before.
“Squeak squeak squeak...”
At that moment, the little green dragon began to squeak nonstop and started telling Yang Tian of a special trick.
Yang Tian did not think much of it. He followed Drago’s instructions and used his intuition to control the flow of the heat to concentrate around his chest.
Very quickly, something amazing happened.
Because the heat rising in his stomach was very obedient to his intuition, it began to slowly concentrate in his chest.
“This...” Yang Tian realized that this was very similar to the time in his dream.
Just like that very long dream, Yang Tian had transformed into a small dragon. In order to become stronger, he kept killing Monsters and drinking their blood.
Not long after that, what appeared in his body was a... Dragon Pearl!
That was right! A Dragon Pearl!
Right now... It could not be?
Yang Tian thought curiously.
Because his thoughts were frayed, Yang Tian’s focus was lost and the heat began to dissipate once more.
“Squeak squeak squeak...”
Drago noticed Yang Tian’s unfocused look and began to berate him.
“I’m sorry, I lost focus. Continue!”
Yang Tian relaxed as he said so and focused once more. Just like before, he controlled the heat in his body and concentrated it in his chest.
The Grade Three Beast Core’s energy kept being released in Yang Tian’s belly as though there was an endless supply.
Very quickly, Yang Tian was lost in the moment.
The heat in his belly was the energy of the Grade Three Beast Core. It took an indeterminate amount of time for Yang Tian to finally concentrate all of the energy in his chest.
To Yang Tian, it was as though he were dreaming once more, and he transformed into a dragon.
When the Grade Three Beast Core’s energy coalesced together!
Boom...
A boom sounded out in Yang Tian’s mind, and he felt that even his soul was rocked.
Suddenly, he realized that he was in a wondrous place.
His entire awareness was filled in this space.
“Dragon Pearl Space!”
In Yang Tian’s mind, this idea appeared.
“Squeak squeak squeak...”
At that moment, Drago’s voice could be heard.
The little green dragon’s voice did not ring in Yang Tian’s ears, but rather in his soul.
The little green dragon told Yang Tian how to control the Dragon Pearl. He also told Yang Tian how to let the Dragon Pearl absorb and release energy.
...
A long while later, Yang Tian opened his eyes. In his eyes, there was a flash of green, just like Drago’s eyes.
“This is incredible. There is a dragon pearl in my body. Then... Am I even still human?”
Yang Tian scratched his head and spoke to himself.
When the Dragon Pearl formed in his body, Drago told Yang Tian the way to utilize it. The Daoists 1had a saying that within the meridians a gold pellet could be formed to attain an immortal form.
A dragon formed a Dragon Pearl within its body. Was this a similar concept? Yang Tian thought for a while before he closed his eyes once more.
This time, he focused his intuition on the Dragon Pearl in his chest.
To Yang Tian, this Dragon Pearl did not seem real. The human chest contained the heart, lungs, and just below it was the stomach. Yang Tian could feel that the Dragon Pearl in his body was definitely not in these organs.
Where could the Dragon Pearl be?
Such wondrous things were very difficult to comprehend.
“Squeak squeak squeak...”
Drago saw Yang Tian frowning and seemed to figure that Yang Tian had doubts in his mind. He told Yang Tian not to think too much about it, and that he should just focus on making the Dragon Pearl larger.
Yang Tian nodded.
To Yang Tian, the situation just now was the inner vision that Qigong masters talked about.
Without realizing it, it was already 1.30am, 1st August.
“Hehe! Drago, let’s go! We should go to the training room and see how powerful the Dragon Pearl is.”
Yang Tian used his inner vision a few times, before opening his eyes and speaking excitedly. He immediately put on his clothes.
Even in the dead of night, there were always people training in the Military Academies. When Yang Tian walked past the entrance of the training ground, he could hear the yells of people training.
...
Yang Tian did not enter the training ground. Instead, he went directly to the private training room and turned on the lights and fans before closing the door.
Drago slid out of Yang Tian’s collar.
This time Yang Tian wanted to try using the Dragon Pearl’s power!
Drago told Yang Tian that the Dragon Pearl could collect and release energy. In Yang Tian’s understanding, the dragon pearl was like a battery. In normal circumstances, he could let the Dragon Pearl collect energy constantly to store up a massive reserve.
When he needed it, he could draw from that reserve.
This...was just too impressive.
One had to note that the Dragon Pearl could still be upgraded to store any amount of energy, no matter how vast. When it was needed, it could enable Yang Tian to be in combat for a very long time. That was not all, the growth of the Dragon Pearl would also bring growth to Yang Tian’s body.
“Thunder fist!”
Yang Tian stood in the middle of the training room and took a few deep breaths before suddenly shouting.
When using the Thunder fist, it was necessary to use the breathing technique to concentrate the body’s Hidden Strength in the fists. This would harden the fists and attain the goal of being able to destroy everything.
However, Yang Tian did not use the breathing technique of Thunder fist this time round. Instead, he drew the strength from the Dragon Pearl and concentrated it in his fists.
...
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Following Yang Tian’s movements, the fist style began to show itself. His fists were meeting resistance from the air, creating the whooshing sound.
This was amazing!
That was what Yang Tian felt at that moment. Previously, when he used Thunder fist’s breathing technique to concentrate the breath in his body-or what was referred to as Hidden Strength by the Warriors in his fists-there was always a sense of instability in his motions as his body moved.
However, Yang Tian realized that when he drew the energy from the Dragon Pearl, the energy would keep concentrating in his fists. This took away the distraction of controlling the Hidden Strength.
In that manner, his fist style flowed easier.
In five minutes, Yang Tian had finished the motions of Thunder fist.
Next was the sword technique.
Lightning sword!
Similarly, because Yang Tian was not distracted by the need to control the Hidden Strength, his swordsmanship was even smoother than before!
After continuously practicing both Thunder fist and Lightning sword multiple times, Yang Tian finally stopped.
...
It was nearly 4am when Yang Tian exited Training Room Number 5 and returned to his quarters to inspect his equipment.
The departure time was set for 8am. When Yang Tian had finished packing everything, he took a look at the time. It was not yet 4.30am. He took another cold shower and changed into clean clothes.
After training his sword and fist techniques in the training room, he was drenched in sweat.
As he lay in bed, Yang Tian was not sleepy at all.
Yang Tian thought about the Dragon Pearl that was now in his body. He knew that from that moment onward, his training method would be different compared to other Warriors.
Whenever a Warrior wanted to gain a rank, they would have to consume a Beast Core of similar Grade. Consuming a Beast Core that was lower in rank than they were would not bring any significant changes to the body.
However, to Yang Tian, this was no longer the case. With the Dragon Pearl, it did not matter what Grade of Beast Core he obtained, they would all be useful. For example, he could consume Grade Three Beast Cores to restore his energy.
Yang Tian thought about it and pulled out his only Grade Two Beast Core.
Looking at it, the strong desire to eat the Beast Core appeared in his mind, and the Dragon Pearl in his chest trembled as well.
“Drago...”
Yang Tian hesitated and turned to look at the little green dragon lying on his bedhead.
Drago was staring at the Beast Core in Yang Tian’s hand with longing.
Yang Tian then realized that Drago also had a Dragon Pearl. This little pipsqueak had only consumed one Grade One and one Grade Two Beast Core for his sake...
Yang Tian felt moved, and gave the Beast Core to the little green dragon. “Drago, have this Beast Core! In the future we’ll evenly split all the Beast Cores we get, okay?”
“Squeak squeak!”
Drago squeaked happily and jumped onto Yang Tian’s chest, burying his head affectionately in Yang Tian’s cheek.
Following that, the little green dragon jumped and grabbed the Beast Core in Yang Tian’s hand to consume it.
