Chapter 131: Liu Erlong's Envy and Dilemma, Hu Liena's Panic
If she didn't find someone to share it with, she felt she would suffocate tonight.
"I can't hold it in anymore!"
Although it was already the middle of the night, she knew that the sisters in the chat group were definitely still awake. Everyone was staying up, waiting for the system's midnight reward settlement.
[Ding! New message in the chat group.]
Dugu Yan skillfully opened the chat group interface.
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: Ahem, sisters, are you all asleep?]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: Hehe, let me share some good news. My luck exploded today. I obtained an extremely powerful cultivation technique (proud.jpg).]
Sure enough, only a few seconds after the message was sent, someone replied.
[Seven Treasure Little Rich Lady: Wow! Sister Yan, are you still awake? Quickly tell us, what technique did you get?]
Previously, she had already obtained the Glassy Lucidity Art and Wind Spirit Steps from the system. She was curious how Dugu Yan's new technique compared with those two.
[Nine Hearts: I'm still awake. Congratulations, Yan Yan.]
Dugu Yan curled her lips into a proud smile and stopped keeping it a secret. She immediately began showing off in the group.
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: It's a technique called the Myriad Poison True Dragon Scripture. According to the system description, it can allow my Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor martial soul to completely shed its snake body and evolve into a true dragon!]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: And it also comes with a set of martial skills called the "True Dragon Nine Transformations"!]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: I studied it briefly. It feels a bit similar to the dragonification secret technique the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is known for.]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: But... mine seems to be slightly more advanced than theirs.]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: For example, the first transformation increases speed by 100% and can even resist lock-on abilities. The second transformation increases attack power by 100% and comes with shield-breaking... hehe, it's ridiculously strong!]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: The key point is that my True Dragon Nine Transformations has several more forms than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's dragonification technique!]
Looking at the lines of boastful messages on the screen, she couldn't help but feel proud.
On the other side of the chat group.
Whether it was Bibi Dong and Hu Liena in Spirit Hall or Liu Erlong at Blue Tyrant Academy, their moods instantly worsened.
Especially Liu Erlong.
...
Heaven Dou City, Blue Tyrant Academy.
Inside a quiet wooden cabin at the back of the mountain.
Liu Erlong wore a simple nightgown. Her fiery figure was faintly outlined under the lamplight.
At this moment, she was staring intently at the diary copy in her hands. Her beautiful face was filled with complicated emotions.
Envy.
Jealousy.
And even a faint trace of... longing.
"True Dragon Nine Transformations..."
"It's actually more advanced than the clan's dragonification technique?"
Liu Erlong took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling intensely.
As the illegitimate daughter of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, although her martial soul mutated into a Fire Dragon, preventing her from inheriting the clan's dragonification secret technique, she still understood the family's inheritance methods extremely well.
On this continent, the dragonification technique was definitely one of the most powerful enhancement techniques, second only to the Clear Sky Sect's "Ring Explosion" technique.
When a soul master with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul reached Rank 30, every new soul ring allowed one part of the body to undergo dragonification.
For example:
- Dragon claws.
- Dragon arms.
- Dragon legs.
- Dragon wings.
Each dragonified body part would greatly increase defense and grant an additional ability separate from soul ring skills, along with massive attribute enhancements.
Take Yu Tianheng as an example.
At Rank 30, the part he dragonified was his right arm, forming a dragon claw.
That alone increased the strength and lightning attack power of his right arm by 100%.
This was precisely why the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul was known as the No. 1 beast martial soul in the world.
But now, the Myriad Poison True Dragon Scripture that Dugu Yan obtained was supposedly even stronger than that?
"If... if I could also obtain such a technique..."
A burning light flashed in Liu Erlong's eyes.
"I want it too..."
Liu Erlong bit her red lip, her mind tangled in hesitation.
"Maybe... I should find an opportunity to interact with that Lin Yuan?"
"After all, the reward mechanism of the diary copy requires being mentioned in his diary."
But when she thought about Lin Yuan's personality of writing whatever he wanted, Liu Erlong hesitated again.
She had a dark past.
A very dark past.
For example, her controversial relationship with Yu Xiaogang, a romance between cousins that society could not accept.
"If I go to meet Lin Yuan, what if he writes all of my embarrassing past into the diary?"
Liu Erlong felt her scalp go numb.
That was the biggest dilemma troubling her now.
Earlier in the chat group, when she mocked Bibi Dong, she had been extremely ruthless and sharp-tongued.
But now that she calmed down and thought about it, she realized she had acted a little too impulsively.
"I only lashed out because she was Xiaogang's first love, and I was angry."
"But if one day it's my turn to become socially humiliated, that woman Bibi Dong will definitely mock me twice as hard."
Liu Erlong rubbed her temples in frustration.
She was the type whose temper flared easily.
But now that she had calmed down, seeing the real benefits Dugu Yan had obtained, she had to admit that she was wavering.
Compared to the temptation of power, pride suddenly didn't seem that important.
Besides, Blue Tyrant Academy and Heaven Dou Royal Academy were not far apart.
Liu Erlong stood up and walked to the window, looking toward the distant direction of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
A determined light appeared in her eyes.
After all, she was still from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Although her relationship with the clan was strained, her identity as a member still remained.
In Heaven Dou City, where nobles were everywhere, even the royal family had to give her some face.
Otherwise, her civilian academy would have already been shut down.
If she visited under the pretext of academic exchange, would Meng Shenji dare refuse her entry?
At worst, she could say she came to check on her "nephew," Yu Tianheng, and just happened to run into Lin Yuan.
For the sake of becoming stronger.
For the sake of rewards.
She decided to go all in.
...
At the same time.
Spirit City.
Hu Liena, wearing a pale golden nightdress, curled up on her large bed, hugging her knees with a worried expression.
Looking at Dugu Yan's boasting in the diary copy, she also felt a sour feeling in her heart.
"That's so nice... a cultivation technique, and even pills personally refined by Lin Yuan..."
"I want them too..."
As Bibi Dong's disciple, Hu Liena already possessed top-tier resources.
But that did not mean she did not desire even greater strength.
Especially after seeing the effects of the True Dragon Nine Transformations, she felt extremely tempted.
However, unlike Liu Erlong's dilemma, Hu Liena's worry came from deep fear.
She wanted the rewards.
But she was also afraid that Lin Yuan would mention her in the diary.
