Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 355 Transformation into an Ancient Dragon, True Immortal and True Dragon

The ancient dragon bloodline erupted like lava within the red dragon, releasing unimaginable power from the depths of its bloodline and flowing throughout its entire body.

The crimson dragon roared, its size rapidly expanding, its body cracking, and blood resembling lava flowing from its body, forming a giant lava blood cocoon around the crimson dragon.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +30, Supreme Dragon Transformation: All Attributes +100%, Spell Damage +100%, Fire Element Law, Life Law, and Devouring Law +15.

An hour later, the cocoon of light expanded by one level, the Ancient Dragon bloodline increased by 40, and the attributes jumped to a new level.

The Supreme Dragon Transformation grants a 200% increase to all attributes, a 200% increase to spell damage, and a 20% increase to the Fire Element Law, Life Law, and Devouring Law. It also grants the user the new Ancient Dragon Divine Power – Ancient Dragon Majesty.

Ancient Dragon Majesty: Ancient dragons are superior dragon races. All inferior dragon races and dragons have their attributes reduced by 10%-20% when facing ancient dragons. The weaker the bloodline, the greater the suppression.

Then the blood cocoon continued to expand, and its aura grew stronger and stronger. The terrifying dragon's might spread out in layers, and wherever it went, the sea monsters scattered and fled.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +50, attribute bonuses unchanged, Law +25.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +60, attribute bonuses unchanged, Law +30.

Ancient Dragon attributes +70, all attributes +300%, spell damage +300%, all laws +35, and learn a new Ancient Dragon ability - Ancient Dragon Commander.

Ancient Dragon Commander: Unconditionally commands the Turtle Clan, Crab Clan, Shrimp Clan, Clam Clan, and all sub-clans with dragon blood. All subordinates under the Commander's command receive a +10% bonus to their attributes.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +80, attribute bonuses unchanged, Law +40.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +90, attribute bonuses unchanged, Law +45.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline +100, All Attributes +400%, Spell Damage +400%, All Laws +50, and learn a new Ancient Dragon ability - Ancient Dragon Body (incomplete).

Ancient Dragon Body (Incomplete): An incomplete Ancient Dragon Body grants 90% damage reduction and the following traits: Invulnerable to All Laws (Mystic Immortal), Immovable as a Mountain, and Undying Body +20 (Blood Regeneration).

A surge of chaotic essence instantly boosted the Ancient Dragon's bloodline, which had been stuck at level 20 for a long time, to 100%.
The blood cocoon trembled violently, and countless Great Wilderness Dragon Runes appeared on its surface. The blood cocoon also expanded and contracted continuously. Each contraction and expansion was like a volcanic eruption, and the aura emanating from the blood cocoon would greatly increase.

At the same time, Su Yu's consciousness once again returned to the depths of her bloodline, to that world shrouded in endless flames.

The sun in the distance is still there, exactly the same as when it last appeared, still boundless and endless.

Driven by a connection deep within his heart and blood, Su Yu once again flew towards the direction of the great sun.

As soon as he moved, the sea of ​​fire surged and crashed against his transformed red dragon body. Each crash drew a sliver of power from his body, constantly hindering the red dragon's progress.

But things are different now. He has now condensed the body of an ancient dragon and transformed into an ancient dragon, so he feels nothing when the waves of fire hit his body.

He flew continuously for an unknown amount of time, but he could feel that it was thousands or even tens of thousands of times stronger than the last time. Finally, he braved the wind and waves, crossed the sea of ​​fire that was unknown how far away, and arrived in front of the great sun. He saw the familiar mist all around him again.

But this time was different from the last. After completely transforming into an ancient dragon, the mist that was once impenetrable could no longer stop him. He could clearly see that behind the mist was a huge, unrecognizable true dragon that occupied all of his vision.

"Ancestor Dragon!"

No explanation is needed; this is the source of the bloodline of all dragons in the world.

The colossal being remained motionless in slumber, but as Su Yu's gaze fell upon the Ancestral Dragon, the great being suddenly opened its eyes, and the great sun at the source of its bloodline suddenly flew out, directly towards Su Yu, who had transformed into a red dragon, and merged directly into his body.

Golden flames shot from the red dragon's pupils, rapidly spreading from the inside out throughout its body, instantly transforming it into a burning dragon.

In reality, after expanding nine times, the blood cocoon finally reached its limit and exploded. Accompanied by a deafening dragon roar, a crimson dragon engulfed in blood flames soared into the sky and circled back and forth.

The sky quickly darkened, and a crack opened in the dome, revealing the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation.

The Tribulation of True Immortals has begun to descend.

However, Su Yu was not paying attention to the impending tribulation at the moment. His consciousness was focused on the panel, carefully examining the power of the ancient dragon bloodline.

Ancient Dragon Bloodline (Perfect): All attributes +1000%, all spell damage +1000%, Fire Law +60, Life Law +60, Devouring Law +60, Mastered Laws: Ancient Dragon Enlightenment, Ancient Dragon Domain, Ancient Dragon Majesty, Dragon Ruler, Ancient Dragon Body.

Ancient Dragon Enchantment: Consumes one drop of Ancient Dragon Blood to bestow upon a creature, transforming it into a true dragon. Minimum Mythic template required. Cooldown time: 12 months. Can be accumulated.

Ancient Dragon Domain: The radiation of ancient dragon bloodlines affects the surrounding environment, causing nearby creatures to activate their dragon bloodlines. Dragons are stimulated by the power of ancient dragons for a long time, accelerating their transformation into dragons.

Ancient Dragon Majesty: Dragons are a superior dragon race. All aquatic creatures suffer a reduction in all attributes when facing an Ancient Dragon, ranging from a minimum of 20% to a maximum of 50%, and there is a very high probability that they will be unable to fight due to fear.

Dragon Overlord: Unconditionally dominates all aquatic creatures; all attributes of aquatic creatures under his command increase by 20%, and those of dragons by 50%.

Ancient Dragon Body: A complete Ancient Dragon Body, reducing all damage taken by 90%, granting the following traits: Ancient Dragon Claws, Invulnerability to All Magic (Golden Immortal), Immortal Dragon Soul, Undying Dragon Body, and +20 to Immortality (Blood Regeneration).

The previous abilities are all enhanced versions of the derived abilities, with a significant increase in power.

It is mainly the ancient dragon body derived from the perfect bloodline true body transformed into an ancient dragon, similar to the true body of the Chaos Demon God, and its characteristics are not much different from those of the true body of the Demon God.

After all, strictly speaking, the original ancient dragons were indeed no worse than ordinary innate deities.

It's worth mentioning that the Ancient Dragon's Body and Ancient Dragon's Claw traits have been overridden by the Great Wilderness Ancestral Dragon's Claw, but the two have the same attributes.

With the attributes of Su Yu at level 399, combined with the attributes refined by Devouring Heaven and Earth, and the gradual bestowal of the Ancient Dragon bloodline, her current base total health is 200 billion, mana is 1 million, physique is 4 million, strength is 8 million, and spell damage is 1 million.

Bloodline leap.

Currently, I have 2000 billion Qi and Blood, 10 billion Mana, 40 billion Physique, 80 billion Strength, and 10 billion Magic Damage.

It is much weaker than the true form of the Chaos Demon God, but far stronger than a Celestial Immortal of the same level.

Furthermore, as the ancient dragon bloodline completely transforms into a complete ancient dragon, the original ancient dragon primordial spirit has merged with the ancient dragon's physical body, and this supernatural power is gone.

All attributes *10 and all spell power *10 have become permanent attributes, requiring no additional magical enhancement.

It seems that the overall attribute bonus is less than the previous Ancient Dragon Bloodline and Dharma Aspect stacking bonus, but not by much. The key is that supernatural powers are external forces after all, and this primordial spirit Dharma Aspect bonus will weaken as the realm increases, and it will not always maintain a 10x bonus.

For example, the bonus might only be 500% when you're at the Mystic Immortal level, and only 200% or 300% when you're at the Golden Immortal level. How can that compare to a permanent tenfold bonus?

Basically, all the bonuses related to supernatural abilities are like this.

Just like the great divine power that Su Yu had previously mastered, the Heaven and Earth Manifestation Technique, which multiplied all attributes by 10 after being used, disappeared when the Chaos Demon God's true body was condensed.

Like the Ancient Dragon's Primordial Spirit Dharma Form, the power of this great supernatural ability will gradually weaken over time.

After all, it's just a great supernatural power; it's impossible for all levels to have all attributes multiplied by 10.

The synthesis of supernatural powers generally follows the rule that higher-level powers overwrite lower-level powers. It is impossible for a lower-level power to overwrite a higher-level power, as this would not conform to the basic rules.

At the same time, the moment Su Yu's bloodline completely transformed and he officially advanced to the Ancient Dragon realm, he vaguely sensed something and looked in a certain direction. In the distant Azure Immortal Domain Dragon Fortress, the five crimson dragons that Su Yu had previously enlightened suddenly paused, and then their bloodlines began to boil. Blood energy surged out and transformed into a cocoon of light, beginning their transformation.

As Su Yu, the source of the bloodline, ascended to the status of an ancient dragon, the bloodlines of several true dragons born from his bloodline also leaped forward.

"Boom!"

The thunder of the heavenly tribulation awakened Su Yu. The Crimson Dragon looked up at the sky and immediately recognized the heavenly tribulation it needed to undergo:
"The Calamity of Annihilation by Wind and Fire!"

The True Immortal Tribulation is nothing special. In terms of wonder and mystery, it is not as good as the Heavenly Tribulation for becoming an immortal. Its only core is the word "difficulty". Its power is just a pure numerical increase compared to the previous Heavenly Tribulation.

But the word "difficult" alone has stumped countless celestial beings.

Most cultivators in this world have exhausted all their potential by the time they become immortals, and most of the magical treasures and supernatural powers below the level of celestial immortals become useless after becoming immortals, requiring them to cultivate immortal Taoist methods and supernatural powers again and to reforge immortal treasures.

The difficulty of refining immortal treasures is so high that countless celestial beings from resource-poor small places do not have a single immortal treasure, and are still empty-handed or using tenth-order magic weapons.

Let alone native celestial beings, most player celestial beings didn't have any celestial treasures to use in the first one or two thousand years before they became immortals. They had to work hard to save money for thousands of years before they could refine a celestial treasure for self-defense.

But all of this was irrelevant to Su Yu. Ever since he condensed the Chaos Pearl, he had never lacked treasures to protect him before he became a Golden Immortal.

Most of the time, there's no need to activate any magical artifacts. Whether it's the true form of the Chaos Demon God or the body of an ancient dragon, it's enough to easily crush opponents of the same level.

"boom!"

A pillar of wind, fire, and thunder, imbued with the law of purifying and annihilating the world, descended from the sky and struck the Crimson Dragon. Lightning flashed everywhere, and the ground of the nameless island beneath it was instantly annihilated, leaving behind pits and craters.

One after another, pillars of wind, fire, and thunder crashed down, but the crimson dragon remained suspended in the air, unharmed, while the nameless island beneath it rapidly became incomplete.

Minutes later, countless lightning bolts converged into a single pillar of wind, fire, and lightning, which crashed down upon the crimson dragon. The dragon sank slightly, and a large patch of dragon scales and flesh more than ten meters thick on its back were annihilated.

This was the only damage that the Annihilation of Wind and Fire and the Purification of the World had caused him; relative to his current size of over two hundred kilometers, it was merely a superficial injury.

Having survived the tribulation, the crimson dragon coiled up, and heavenly rain and the power of the Heavenly Dao enveloped it, transforming it into a cocoon of light, thus beginning its leap in realm and metamorphosis.

The rewards for breaking through to True Immortal are not as many as those for becoming an Immortal; the main improvement is in existing attributes.

Once the transformation was complete, the attribute panel changed, and new attributes were presented to Su Yu.

"Finally broke through to the True Immortal realm!"

With a flick of his finger, the Crimson Dragon sent a spark flying, which landed on the nameless island, cratered and scarred by the lightning strikes. The spark exploded into a life-giving flame, rapidly spreading and purifying the remaining annihilation power wherever it touched. The Crimson Dragon soared into the sky, stretching over a thousand kilometers in length. While still not as powerful as the Azure Dragon King he had encountered before, it wasn't far behind.

With the added strength of the Ancient Dragon bloodline, coupled with the bloodline suppression, the current Azure Dragon King might not be able to defeat him.

Although the Azure Dragon King is of a higher realm, he is not an ancient dragon and is suppressed by Su Yu in terms of bloodline. When fighting him, all his attributes will be reduced by 20%.

The red dragon turned its body and plunged into the sea, where it saw the dragon lying prone.

The crimson dragon extended its claw, flipped it open, and a drop of ancient dragon blood flew from its palm, hovering in the sea like a perfect, dazzling gem, radiating an aura that drove dragons mad.

The dragon-like beast raised its head, its face filled with longing.

"You're lucky!"

With a flick of his finger, the Crimson Dragon released the blood of the Ancient Dragon, which the Flood Dragon immediately swallowed.

A few seconds later, the dragon let out a long roar, quickly coiled into a ball, and its body surface rapidly turned red, with blood gushing out to form a crimson cocoon of light.

Not long after the dragon transformed from its cocoon, Su Yu sensed that the five true dragons he had inspired in the Azure Immortal Realm had completed their transformation and awakened.

With a thought, a panel appeared before him, displaying the name "Red Dragon Macro," which was a true dragon transformed from the blood of one of the ancient dragons.

Red Dragon Hong (Myth): Level 299, a true dragon transformed by the blood of an ancient dragon.

His level has directly reached the limit of the Golden Core stage, and he is about to undergo tribulation at any time.

The template has been upgraded from legendary to mythological, a significant improvement.
No, there is more than one level.

Although they are both based on mythological templates, the differences are actually quite significant.

After all, the Mythic Template is above the Immortal Template, but the gap between the Immortal Template and the Mythic Template is greater than the combined gap between the Trash Template and the Mythic Template.

Golden Dragon Ao Ying is a mythological template, as is the Sea Serpent Clan Demon Immortal You Yuan, whom he once killed, and Azure Dragon King Ao Ze, but the difference between these three is at least tenfold.

These six mythical templates who received enlightenment and advancement through the true blood of Su Yu Ancient Dragon are definitely stronger than true dragons like Ao Ying and Ao Qing. They may not be as strong as the Azure Dragon King, but they are not far behind.

If we were to break down the mythological template into ten stars, the Azure Dragon King would be nine or ten stars, Ao Ying and Ao Qing would be around three or four stars, and the strength of the true dragon bloodline he cultivated with the true blood of the ancient dragon would be around seven stars.

At this level, the true dragon bloodline almost guarantees advancement to True Immortal, with a considerable probability of advancing to Profound Immortal and an extremely small probability of advancing to Golden Immortal.

"The potential is limitless!"

The key is that the ancient dragon's true blood can condense into a drop every year, and can be transformed into ten thousand true dragons with great potential in ten thousand years.

Even if there's only a one percent chance of advancing to the Xuanxian realm, that's still a hundred people.

Even if there's only a one in a thousand chance of advancing to Golden Immortal, there are still ten of them.

Ten Golden Immortals—let alone restoring the ancient, primordial dragon race to its former glory, which is too far off and almost impossible—would definitely greatly enhance the dragon race's strength, further elevating its power and status.

After all, even if all the dragons in the entire Earthly Immortal Realm were added together, there probably wouldn't be more than ten Golden Immortal-level True Dragons.

With his status, he could easily control all the dragons in the Immortal Realm in the future. When the Civilization War starts, he will have a powerful ally. Even if he is too busy to take action, these dragons will be enough to easily defeat most of the player civilizations.

Su Yu waited for almost two hours. The cocoon of light that the dragon had transformed into cracked open, and flames spread out. The dragon had disappeared, and in its place was a red dragon that was nearly a hundred kilometers long.

The red dragon crouched down, raised its head, and spoke in human language:

"Lobow pays homage to my lord!"

Su Yu raised an eyebrow, quite surprised, and said:
"You even have your own name? Okay, from now on you'll be called Luo."

PS: Here's a patch: I've changed the names of the five dragons I previously consecrated. They don't need the surname Su anymore; they can just use one character each: Crimson Dragon Hong, Crimson Dragon Yuan, and Crimson Dragon Luo.

After enlightening the Crimson Dragon Luo, Su Yu flew to the dragon's nest 700,000 kilometers away.

Even before he arrived, millions of dragons of all sizes were attracted and bowed down to him.

Su Yu coiled himself directly in the center of the dragon's nest, and a rich red light spread out from him, turning everything in its path crimson. Many dragons were affected and their bloodlines began to boil. Some dragons with sufficiently rich bloodlines began to undergo bloodline transformation.

Ancient Dragon Domain: The radiation of ancient dragon bloodlines affects the surrounding environment, causing nearby creatures to activate their dragon bloodlines. Dragons are stimulated by the power of ancient dragons for a long time, accelerating their transformation into dragons.

Even the many spirits and monsters wandering around were affected. The extremely thin amount of dragon blood in their bodies gradually grew stronger under the ancient dragon's domain, and they slowly showed signs of dragonification.

Not to mention the location where Su Yu was based, many plants in the sea were infected by the ancient dragon's power and gradually transformed into spiritual herbs containing dragon power.

This is the power of the ancient dragon bloodline, a power that no ordinary creature could imagine.

During this brief moment, Su Yu activated the Chaos Pearl, summoned Ao Run, and took out a drop of ancient dragon blood to fuse with her.

Yes, it's integration, not enlightenment.

Enlightenment alters its very essence, brutally transforming it into a Crimson Dragon, regardless of its attributes—that is, its bloodline.

Fusion does not change attributes; it merely absorbs the power from the ancient dragon's blood to strengthen itself. The two are fundamentally different.

On the contrary, the other Kun beast directly and brutally enlightened it, using the last drop of ancient dragon blood to transform it into a dragon Kun, whose bloodline reached 9 stars.

It took Ao Run almost half a year to fuse with the Ancient Dragon's true blood. He already possessed a mythical template, and after fusing with the Ancient Dragon's true blood, his bloodline strength reached 10 stars, which was no less than that of the Azure Dragon King.

At the same time, his level, which was already as high as 297, reached its peak after fusing with the ancient dragon's true blood, directly triggering the Great Calamity of Heaven and Man.

With a bloodline strength of up to ten stars, plus the Xuanwu Armor, the low-grade immortal treasure Canghai Dragon Pearl, and the mid-grade immortal treasure Zhenhai Pearl, one can easily overcome the tribulation of heaven and man and become an immortal.

Character: Ao Run (Mythology)

Treasures: Sea-Covering Pearl (Mid-grade Immortal Treasure), Azure Sea Dragon Pearl (Low-grade Immortal Treasure), Black Tortoise Armor (Tenth Rank), Blood Refining Cauldron (Eighth Rank)

After Ao Run completed his tribulation, Su Yu did not linger there any longer and got up to leave, returning to the Falling Star Islands.

However, Luo did not take her away. Instead, he left her there and taught her the method of transforming demon soldiers. He instructed her to transform all the dragons in the Dragon Kingdom and the hundreds of true dragons that had been transformed in the past six months, as well as a large number of aquatic creatures, to build a huge navy here for future use.

In addition, he used the supernatural power of the laws of time to travel through time and leave an anchor node here.

After returning to the Azure Immortal Realm, one can directly activate their divine powers to teleport to this anchor node via the omnipresent River of Time.

This supernatural power has almost no limit to the teleportation distance; it can teleport as long as there is a marker.

However, each mark can only be used once and lasts for only a dozen years. After being transmitted, the mark disappears and needs to be left again.

Moreover, the mark is attached to something, and if the object is damaged, the mark will disintegrate.

The time marker anchor that Su Yu left in the nest is a ninth-tier magic treasure. If it is left deep in the nest and not taken out, it will remain there for more than ten years unless the nest is breached.

Furthermore, as his strength continues to grow and his mastery of the laws of time strengthens, the duration of the mark's retention will gradually increase, potentially lasting for hundreds or even thousands of years in the future.

A day later, upon returning to the South China Sea area, I received a message from Han Zhuofei:
"The conferment team from headquarters has arrived. When will you return?"

He glanced at the time; it was two months ago. He then replied:

"I'm back. Is the conferment team still there?"

"Still."

"I'll be there soon."

They arrived at Divine Turtle Island and saw the conferment procession, consisting of a Celestial Immortal and more than a dozen Golden Core cultivators. Han Zhuofei pointed to the middle-aged Celestial Immortal in the center and introduced him:

"This is General Jiang Dongjun, who will verify and preside over the conferment ceremony!"

Su Yu gave a military salute and said:

"Su Yu greets General Dongjun."

Jiang Dongjun looked Su Yu up and down, showing no impatience from waiting for two months, and said with a smile:

"When Major General Han Zhuofei reported it, most of the generals in the council did not believe it. How could there be a celestial being under a hundred years old? I never expected it to be true. It is truly a blessing for the human race!"

"Only by chance can one obtain an extraordinary opportunity and become an immortal in a short period of time."

"Opportunity is also part of strength. No matter the reason, you have become an immortal."

At this point, his expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice:

“Venerable Su Yu, I am now on behalf of the Supreme Council to examine you.”

Su Yu also turned serious and said:
"Please say!"

"After verification, it has been confirmed that you have indeed survived the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth and achieved the rank of Celestial Immortal. According to the rules of the Supreme Council of Human Civilization, you will be awarded the rank of Major General. Are you willing to accept the rank and fight for the fate of humanity?"

Su Yu's expression was solemn as she spoke in a loud voice:
"I am willing!"

"very good!"
