Chapter 1061: Chapter 85: True Dragon Dharma Aspect, Primordial Exotic Beasts
The resolution was made, but how to implement it specifically still required careful consideration and strategizing before taking action. At this moment, Xiao Jie, having successfully advanced to a Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal, found his mind imbued by the system with a plethora of mystical knowledge about the characteristics of Divine Beasts, the origins of Dharma Aspects, and Exotic Beasts of heaven and earth.
This information seemed like it had always been stored deep within his memory, now quietly awakened, giving him a clearer and more systematic understanding of how to strengthen his own power.
Especially when it comes to choosing among the “Heavenly Gang Nine Transformations,” one must be extremely cautious.
The biggest difference between a Dharma Aspect Incarnation and a normal demon beast incarnation is that the form it takes is not just a facade, but it can truly wield the divine power contained within that Dharma Aspect.
The so-called “Dharma Aspects” often appear as the manifestations of “Divine Beasts,” revered by ordinary people, but these aspects born from the power of faith and incense are fundamentally different from the true Divine Beasts nurtured by heaven and earth.
True Dragons, Colorful Phoenixes, Qilins… such beings, born and nurtured by heaven and earth, blessed with intelligence and vitality, are the real Divine Beasts. Their powerful mana comes from innate bloodline inheritance, making them the darlings of the laws of heaven and earth.
Dharma Aspects, however, are more like special divine manifestations emanating from the accumulated pious faith and reverent telekinesis of countless common folk over the years. The two have different origins, one is innate, the other man-made, but fascinatingly, they do not conflict or reject each other.
True Divine Beasts can also enjoy the endowment of the Power of Faith, condensing their own Dharma Aspect. Furthermore, due to the particularly intense and long-standing imagination and reverence people have towards traditional Divine Beasts like dragons, phoenixes, and qilins, their Dharma Aspect Divine Powers tend to be extraordinarily powerful and unrivaled.
Therefore, the optimal choice is undoubtedly to seek a true Divine Beast as the source of visualization and to supplement with its corresponding faith Dharma Aspect, thereby maximizing the power of the Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal’s “Heavenly Gang Nine Transformations.” Wasting precious opportunities of Dharma Aspect advancement on ordinary demon beast transformations would be a squandering of resources. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel_fіre.net
Currently, the only transformation considered Divine Beast level that Xiao Jie commands is the “White Dragon Transformation.” This foundation, painstakingly cultivated before he became immortal, prompted him, without hesitation, to open the “Heavenly Gang Nine Transformations” interface, choosing to advance the “White Dragon Transformation” to a more formidable—”White Dragon Dharma Aspect!”
[System prompt: Your transformation skill [True Dragon Transformation (White Dragon)] has advanced to [True Dragon Dharma Aspect (White Dragon)], bestowing upon you the True Dragon Dharma Aspect exclusive divine skill [Clouds Born from the Dragon]. When you incarnate as a True Dragon, dark clouds will follow and surround you, obscuring your form, enhancing your presence, and providing additional power boost to your Dragon Thunder Defense. You can unlock more Dharma skills by increasing your Incense Level.]
Xiao Jie checked the skill description and nodded in satisfaction.
Not bad, this [Clouds Born from the Dragon] is a passive effect, tantamount to having a constant thundercloud summoned around the body. This means that in future releases of Dragon Thunder Defense, there will be no need for preparation; it can go full force immediately.
Moreover, the dark cloud also has the effect of obscuring one’s form. If engaged in mana confrontations with an enemy, the clouds encircling all sides can reduce the probability of being hit, and since this cloud is a divine skill effect, it cannot be dispersed by the Call the Wind Skill.
However, having only one White Dragon Dharma Aspect is far from enough. The power of the Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal lies in its endless transformations and adaptability to myriad changes. Different transformations should be used to deal with different enemies, environments, and predicaments. While not invincible individually, when combined, they reveal their enigmatic and omnipotent might.
Hence, the current priority is to greatly expand his “Transformation Skill Library.” The natural targets are those Divine Beasts or Immortal Beasts with heavenly and earthly abilities, or those ancient strange beasts born from primordial chaos and endowed with exceptional traits.
The first time Xiao Jie thought of this kind of extraordinary existence was when he encountered two colossal creatures while crossing Beihai—the North Sea Giant Kuo with wings like the heavens’ clouds and the Profound Turtle carrying an entire island on its back, slowly swimming.
“However,” Xiao Jie frowned slightly, “visualizing those two is by no means easy. Especially the giant turtle, whose aura is ancient and profound, its movements seem to merge with the earth veins and ocean currents, feeling more like a natural spirit or an incarnation of the earth rather than a pure biological entity. Whether the ‘Visualizing All Things’ skill will work on it is still in question.”
“The giant Kuo is clearly a biological entity, but aside from its mountain-like size and unfathomable life force, it doesn’t seem to exhibit many peculiar divine skills. Perhaps it has hidden abilities I haven’t seen? For now, let’s list it as a backup option.”
As for other famous Divine Beasts and Immortal Beasts… pondering over it several times, Xiao Jie found his knowledge reserve still limited. “It seems I must consult those well-informed Immortal Friends.”
With this thought, he rode his cloud to find Wu Qingyue, the Martial Arts Immortal, who was instructing Hao Mie and others in boxing.
“Wu Daoist, sorry to interrupt. May I ask if you know where in the Jiuzhou World the tracks of Divine Beasts, Immortal Beasts, or Primordial Beasts might emerge?”
Wu Qingyue ended his boxing stance and laughed heartily, “Haha, you’ve got old me stumped on that one. We martial artists, encountering mountains, we open the mountains, encountering seas, we split the seas, always straightforward, not paying much attention to those exotic beasts’ nests. However—” he shifted his tone, “Miao Fa Yuanjun must certainly know! For collecting various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to refine magical treasures and talismans, she traversed virtually every corner of the Nine States. Many rare materials are intimately related to the habits and territories of those Divine Beasts. Ask her, you can’t go wrong!”
