Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

Chapter 55 Twelve Demon God Transformations

Wu Tian could clearly feel a deep, oppressive aura, even filled with the threat of death, surrounding him from all directions. His body's instincts were triggered, his fur stood on end, and he lowered his front paws and roared.

However, his talent for seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune kept feeding him, and the Savage Bear Wood in front of him did not pose any danger.

The body's instincts and talents provide completely opposite feedback.

Wu Tian was not surprised. The barbarian bear wood could not possibly harm him, but there was no doubt that the methods it was displaying at this moment had the power to kill him.

His fear of danger triggered a stress response.

As the giant hand descended from the sky, the sense of danger grew stronger, as if someone was about to choke him, making it hard to breathe.

However, his body was inexplicably absorbing the essence of heaven and earth from all directions, especially the wind-attribute essence, which poured into his body almost like a waterfall.

The talent of immortality has been triggered; if we were to use the terminology of human immortals, perhaps "immortality technique" would be a more appropriate term.

From the moment Man Xiongmu released the cloud leopard to the moment it transformed into this colossal hand that blotted out the sky, only three breaths had passed, yet his physical strength and mental state had already fully recovered to their peak.

Now, he can use Wind Release at any time to disappear from this giant palm of yin wind.

But he didn't choose to move. Instead, he remained motionless in place. It seemed that Man Xiongmu wanted to teach him something, and he sensed an opportunity.

The giant, sinister hand descended from the sky, directly covering his body. At this moment, he was like an ant, gripped by the giant hand, which then slowly moved him to the front of the Savage Bear Wood.

The physique of the bear was terrifyingly robust. His upper body was bare, and a giant bear was outlined by dark blue tattoos. His eyes were pure black, and there was a chilling indifference about them.

"White Dragon, tell me, what did you sense?"

Wu Tian was gripped in the palm of that giant, wind-swept hand, feeling as if he were about to be crushed to death at any moment. But he did sense something different from that giant hand, or rather, from that wind...

"Yes, will?"

After pondering for a while, Wu Tian said somewhat uncertainly.

Man Xiongmu nodded. "When a person's mind and will align with a certain principle of heaven and earth, that is called the will of the law."

"When one cultivates to a certain level, one's own emotional changes can even affect changes in celestial phenomena."

"The root and origin of all this is the Dharma."

As Wu Tian listened intently, the giant, sinister hand transformed into a jet-black rope, binding Wu Tian's body and suspending him in mid-air.

The voice of the barbarian bear continued to echo between heaven and earth.

"When the Qi circulation is complete, the body undergoes a process of cleansing the meridians and marrow, resulting in a certain inhuman transformation and a greater harmony with the essence of heaven and earth."

"The next step is to solidify the true form, including mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, plants, trees, spirits, and so on."

"The essence of Condensing Form is actually to comprehend the meaning of the Dharma. I have heard that the major sects in the Central Plains have superior incantations. After the completion of cultivation, there is a chance to directly condense the meaning of the Dharma. This is of great benefit to the cultivation of the Condensing Form realm."

"Borrowing the form of heaven and earth to comprehend its methods is the essence of solidifying form, but very few disciples of Skull Mountain can do it, so the vast majority are blocked before the gate of mystery."

"Only through more than ten years of accumulation, constant hard work and refinement, or by seizing an opportunity, can one break through the barrier."

"But you are different..."

As Man Xiongmu spoke, the rope that had been binding Wu Tian transformed into a black leopard, ten zhang long, resembling a small mountain, carrying Wu Tian on its back.

"You have already awakened the Wind Release. To comprehend the essence of the Dharma is as simple as eating and drinking."

"Forging the cauldron is to condense the divine soul, thereby better comprehending the universe; refining the law uses the intent of the law as a seed, progressing from the surface to the core, to more deeply comprehend the principles between heaven and earth." "But you... have already mastered Wind Release..."

"The fruit has been reaped before the seed was even planted."

At that moment, the enormous black panther vanished, transforming into a short sword. The sword's light swept Wu Tian up, sweeping across the sky...

Manxiongmu displayed extremely exquisite skills, transforming a wisp of wind into various different forms.

Do as you please, change naturally.

All of this left Wu Tian in awe.

This was the first time he had truly witnessed the terrifying power of a master in the Refinement Realm. Even with just one technique, the Ghost Wind Technique, they could display astonishing and frightening strength.

Man Xiongmu lowered Wu Tian from mid-air, and his eyes returned to their original form from pure black. However, a wisp of black wind still spun continuously on his outstretched right hand.

"Incantations are simplified versions of the laws of heaven and earth by senior masters who comprehended them. By using incantations, even cultivators who have not comprehended the laws can still cast some weak incantations."

"Once you comprehend the essence of the Dharma, the power of any spells that resonate with it will naturally increase significantly."

"The law of the Refining Law Realm is not a certain spell, nor those dazzling methods, but the laws of heaven and earth."

"By taking the meaning of the law as the seed, taking root in heaven and earth, and comprehending the principles of the law, as long as one has a preliminary understanding of the law, one can perform all kinds of magic."

Man Xiongmu looked at Wu Tian and explained, "What I just demonstrated to you can be divided into several types of spells if you want to classify them in detail, such as the One-Qi Capture Hand, the Netherworld Leopard, the Wind-Tearing Blade, and so on."

"But these are actually variations of the Ghost Wind Technique, they are techniques."

"But the principles of heaven and earth involved in the Youfeng Method are the foundation."

"Once you grasp the principles of law, techniques are merely the means to achieve success; success will come naturally."

"If you only practice spells without understanding the principles of magic, haha!"

This physically imposing man, with his bulging muscles and seemingly ruthless appearance, exuded an air of composure and confidence that suggested he was in complete control. “Those good-for-nothings spend decades trying to comprehend a single spell; but I comprehend the principles of magic, and I can understand everything. I can easily unleash more than a dozen different spells.”

"As my understanding of the principles of the Wind Release deepens, I may even be able to perform Wind Release transformations without a teacher."

"Bai Long'er..."

Man Xiongmu stared intently at Wu Tian, ​​"You possess the Wind Release talent, which is excellent. It shows that your bloodline is extremely terrifying."

"But these talents are merely brought by bloodline. If you do not understand the meaning of the law and do not comprehend its principles, no matter how much you cultivate, it is nothing more than the fusion of bloodline talents into an inner core."

"It is absolutely impossible to become a Demon Saint, or even a Great Saint of the Demon Race!"

Wu Tian finally understood what Man Xiongmu meant. He took a deep breath, prostrated himself on the ground, and said earnestly, "Please give me your guidance, Master."

Man Xiongmu smiled and said, "Others need to condense their Dharma intent and refine their spells in order to comprehend the principles of Dharma, but you have awakened the Wind Escape Technique, which is superior to others. As long as you are willing to diligently relearn it, it will be much easier for you than for others."

"I will teach you the Twelve Transformations of Ghosts and Gods."

"It can condense into twelve kinds of transformations, such as hands, feet, mouth, lions, tigers, leopards, knives, clubs, ropes, bows, arrows, and horses."

"After mastering the twelve transformations, one can manifest a three-headed, six-armed demon."
