Swords emerge from Mount Hua, sweeping across the heavens from the world of Swordsman.

Yue Zhuoqun immediately pressed his palm against the wound and began to circulate his internal energy to absorb the irritant.

Rumble!

Instantly, a pure, icy, and vibrant power surged into his body. His true energy refined the icy attributes, and his flesh and blood absorbed the vitality, leaving him feeling incredibly refreshed.

Chapter 207 Bloodline Transformation, War God's Record

"Kakaka~"

The Yue Zhuo group continued to vibrate, and under the influence of the demonic dragon's blood essence, their flesh and bones underwent another transformation, and their lifespans were noticeably extended.

More importantly, he discovered that his blood possessed a cold, water-based power.

He withdrew his hand and threw a punch.

Boom!

A strong wind whipped up the air, the force of the blows mixed with water vapor, causing the air to condense into a layer of ice crystals and the temperature to drop by more than ten degrees.

"Has this caused a mutation in the bloodline?"

Yue Zhuoqun's tone was full of surprise and doubt.

He can achieve the same effect using his internal energy or martial arts, but it requires transformation along certain meridians when activating his internal force.

Even the seventh diagram of the Longevity Manual involves absorbing the power of heaven and earth into the body, and then generating and transforming it into water-attribute true energy from the kidneys.

This punch was merely the effect of his pure physical strength; the power of the cold water emanated directly from his bloodline.

If he could control water-attribute power before, he now possesses water-attribute power himself.

If it has such an effect when first used, its power will be even more terrifying if it is developed and explored in depth, and it will evolve into a kind of means nurtured by the physical body.

"Beast bloodline, truly a unique gift from heaven!"

His bloodline status at this moment has transcended the essence of the mortal world, similar to Nie Feng's mad bloodline and Bu Jingyun's Bu clan divine bloodline in the novel "Storm Riders".

He looked down at the demonic dragon.

The dragon was on its last legs, lying weakly on the ground, its eyes filled with terror.

It is truly lamentable that such a strange beast would die in this way.

After thinking for a moment, he stepped forward and placed his palm back on the shattered scale between the dragon's brows, channeling his true energy into it.

His current true energy is unique, combining the power of both the righteous and demonic paths, possessing the seven variations of true energy from the Longevity Technique, and more importantly, it is integrated with fortune.

This is the true imperial energy he condensed from his path to the throne.

"roar~"

As the Imperial True Qi entered his body, the demonic dragon immediately let out a comfortable low roar, its eyes filled with joy and fascination.

Kakakka~

Its scales trembled, and a faint light flowed within them. A sense of holiness arose from its violent aura.

The power of destiny within the Imperial True Qi caused its body to undergo a transformation.

At this moment, it no longer feared or antagonized Yue Zhuoqun, and squinted its eyes as it began to transform.

Yue Zhuoqun smiled, stopped disturbing it, and turned to walk towards the Temple of the God of War.

The Temple of War is entirely black, standing tens of meters tall, with its entrance alone measuring ten meters in size, resembling a palace of giants.

In front of the main hall's main entrance is a long staircase with thousands of steps. As you climb the steps to the foot of the hall's entrance, a stone inscription comes into view.

Those were three ancient characters, and even illiterate people would immediately understand upon seeing them—War God Temple.

Upon entering the main hall, the scene inside horrified Yue Zhuoqun even more.

The high dome is dazzling with starlight, inlaid with countless pearls that correspond one-to-one with the stars, making it difficult to distinguish whether this is a real starry sky or an illusion.

At the very center of the main hall is a massive wall forty or fifty meters high, gleaming under the starlight.

At the very top of the giant wall, a line of large characters is carved: Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs.

When Yue Zhuoqun's gaze fell upon these words, his mind went blank for a moment, as if he had been dragged into a chaotic world.

Without boundaries, without distinction of superiority or inferiority, all things vanished, leaving only these ten characters suspended high in the sky, radiating immense pressure.

Click!

His bones cracked, and he was almost forced to his knees by the pressure.

Faced with these words, one feels as insignificant as an ant, finding it difficult to muster the courage to resist.

Fortunately, it was just a momentary lapse, and my mind returned to its original state.

A fine layer of sweat appeared on Yue Zhuoqun's brow. He composed himself and continued watching.

Below the large characters are forty-nine reliefs, each about ten feet square, with different designs.

A celestial being, wielding a battle spear and riding a divine beast, swept across the heavens and earth.

There are the evolution of stars and the outline of mountains and rivers.

There were a hundred beasts roaring together, and orioles flying and grass growing tall.

A man and a woman embrace, their yin and yang energies harmonizing.

……

The relief contains no words, martial arts techniques, mental methods, or moves, yet it conveys the essence of Tao, which is ethereal, unpredictable, and profoundly mysterious.

It's as if you can find traces of everything you've experienced, the martial arts you've practiced, and the classics you've read in these reliefs. These reliefs are the ultimate goal of all martial arts and all profound truths.

It can captivate the mind with just one glance, allowing one to gain insights and find mutual confirmation, yet it is difficult to grasp anything at that moment.

"The Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine. These reliefs correspond to the forty-nine of the Heavenly Evolution."

It took Yue Zhuoqun a few moments to recover from the shock.

This relief is the so-called "War God's Record".

The Dao contained in the relief sculpture cannot be compared with the true Dao; at most, it can only be considered a projection, merely a threshold.

But these are profound enough for his current level of understanding.

Trying to understand something directly from a relief sculpture is very difficult and often produces a vague or ambiguous effect.

However, if you verify your own martial arts skills in reverse, you will immediately gain something.

To put it simply, the War God's Manual directly presents the essence of the Dao to you. You must follow its essence and extend downwards to find the path that corresponds to you.

"Having entered this treasure mountain, it is not my wish to merely pick a single flower or leaf."

He knows a lot, but even that is just a drop in the ocean compared to the blossoming of the forty-nine reliefs in the "War God's Record".

"System, can this giant wall be taken away?"

[The War God's Manual Stone Wall, an event item containing a projection of the Great Dao, which the host currently lacks the ability to collect.]

Yue Zhuoqun sighed.

That's true, my current system space is only 30 cubic meters, which isn't enough to fit anything.

"Is it alright if I exchange the 'War God's Manual' for you?"

[The host has only gained a slight understanding from the War God's Manual and has not fully imprinted it in their mind, therefore they are unable to complete the exchange.]

Yue Zhuoqun's face darkened: "Are you my system or not?!"

The War God's Manual is right in front of us, and this still isn't enough?

Only items held in the host's hand or recorded in their mind can be exchanged.

The essence of "The War God's Illustrated Manual" is not merely the relief patterns, but most importantly, the Taoist essence it contains.

Even if you were to make a one-to-one copy of the relief, it would be worthless if it didn't possess the Daoist essence it contained.

"Fine, fine, so you want to play like this? Then I'll really imprint it in my mind." Yue Zhuoqun's temper flared up as well.

He sat cross-legged on the spot, using the fluctuations of the demonic seed to capture the Daoist charm on the relief, and began to simulate and sketch it in his mind.

It sounds easy, but when you actually do it, you find it's incredibly difficult.

Before the Taoist spirit of the first relief could be fully depicted, my spirit was rapidly depleted, and I was almost mentally exhausted and my soul collapsed.

hum!

Just then, the Tai Chi symbol in my dantian began to rotate, the Yin-Yang dividing line emitted divine light, and the power of Qi surged into my mind to begin to strengthen it.

In "Laughing at the World," he led the Huashan Sect to become the state religion, and became the monarch of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber world and the Twin Dragons world. The power of destiny within his body was extremely strong.

Once this force joins in, it's as if divinely aided, instantly entering a state of neither joy nor sorrow, and unattached to material things.

The Taoist charm of the reliefs in "The Record of the God of War" began to take shape in the spirit, one by one.

Chapter 208 Martial Arts Primordial Spirit, Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian

I don't know how much time passed, but all forty-nine illustrations from the "War God's Record" were imprinted in my mind.

Not only are there patterns, but the Taoist spirit they embody is also exactly the same.
