Chapter 292: Chapter 192 Great Demon_2
The light on Xu Chuan’s body flickered, and his aura suddenly surged, making Li Shiming’s aura seem insignificant by comparison.
Amidst the churning waters, Li Shiming faintly saw a snake-like figure darting through the water.
His scalp tingled and his body turned cold; that was not a snake at all but a dragon, at least, it was indistinguishable from the dragons of legend to him.
“Brother Li, take care. Damn it, how did we encounter a Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon!” Xu Chuan’s telepathic message came through.
Only then did Li Shiming realize that the demon, resembling a dragon, had unbranched horns on its head, a tail like a snake, and four toes on its claws.
Though not a dragon of legend, this Flood Dragon was definitely among the most potent in terms of bloodline among the Golden Core Demons.
...
Xu Chuan’s character was still excellent; even when facing a Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon, he was still fully mobilizing his aura to draw its attention.
His figure quickly flew toward the distance, and Li Shiming noticed an array of radiant talismans in his hand, which were not yet activated.@@@@
The Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon let out a long chant, and Li Shiming felt nearly incapable of using Sword Escape. Though far away, that chant still affected him.
The Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon did not take any notice of Li Shiming. By comparison, it was clear that Xu Chuan was far more enticing to it.
Especially since Xu Chuan’s deliberately provocative aura was completely intolerable to the Flood Dragon Demon.
Just as the Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon flew out of the water, ready to pursue Xu Chuan, Xu Chuan activated the talisman in his hand. His figure almost turned into a phantom, escaping at an exaggerated speed toward the distance.
How could the Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon let him go? With a twist in mid-air, it too turned into a faint afterimage and vanished from its original location.
This was the first time Li Shiming felt the terror of the Spiritual Beast Territory of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. Before encountering a Golden Core Demon, even if he had encountered a Late-stage Foundation Establishment spirit beast, he wasn’t much worried—escaping wasn’t a problem if he couldn’t win.
He had many methods at his disposal, and at the very least, Nezha could hold for Five Breath Time, giving him enough time to use a magic item to resolve the battle.
But when facing a Golden Core Demon, he didn’t even have the courage to fight. The aura of the Four Clawed Flood Dragon Demon was more terrifying than any Golden Core cultivator he had encountered.
He took a deep breath, the Golden Thunder Spiritual Power from within his Spirit Lake surged forth, and he activated Thunder Escape, turning into a streak of golden lightning that flashed in another direction.
As he neared the shore, he halted the Thunder Escape. Just in that moment, he had left the lake, but much of his Thunder Spiritual Power had been depleted.
“Five Breath Time!” Li Shiming whispered softly to himself.
Li Shiming discarded the Spirit Stones devoid of Spiritual Energy, stood on the ground with both feet, took out a flask, and poured Monkey Wine into his mouth without swallowing.
His expression gradually became fierce, anger arising from within his heart, while the chanting of the ‘Diamond Sutra’ resounded in his ears, and an image of the Angry-eyed Vajra appeared behind him.
In the ‘Foundation Establishment’ section of the ‘Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,’ the Spiritual Power was transformed into Vajra force through Buddhist intent, simultaneously strengthening the cultivator’s entire body in both motion and stillness.
He swallowed the Monkey Wine in his mouth, a scorching energy traveling directly from his mouth to his belly, and then this burning energy spread throughout his body.
The Vajra force, created from Thunder Spirit Power, appeared even more violent under the influence of the true essence of the Angry-eyed Vajra, constantly assaulting his entire body.
In previous practices, he always felt as if his body, under the impact of the Vajra force, had a kind of indefinable sensation, that was the Vajra force strengthening his body while the body’s energy could not satisfy the emptiness.
But this time was different; the Vajra force circulated throughout his body, and every part of his body felt a swelling sensation under these impacts.
The swelling sensation seemed like an illusion but actually accelerated the body’s absorption of the Monkey Wine, with the scorching energy being devoured by the body, seemingly solidifying the sensation of expansion.
Li Shiming unconsciously let out a roar, and the true essence-form of the Angry-eyed Vajra seemed even more agile.
The quality of the Vajra force that transformed again had clearly improved, providing an even more intense stimulation to the body, and the energy from the Monkey Wine replenished the emptiness caused by the stimulation.
He felt as if he had transformed into the Angry-eyed Vajra, his muscles knotted, and his strength sufficient to uphold the heavens.
Unknowingly, he completed the last movement of the ‘Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,’ and the scorching energy generated by the Monkey Wine inside him was completely absorbed, the essence of the Angry-eyed Vajra gradually fading away.
Opening his eyes, his consciousness restored.
He felt that all his muscles were bulging as if there was a surging, endless strength within his body.
His Spiritual Thought swept through his body, and the robes on his body vanished, revealing his physique.
It was not an illusion; his muscles had clearly grown larger, what was once streamlined was now somewhat swollen.
“I haven’t turned into a muscle-bound hunk, have I?” Li Shiming couldn’t help but murmur in astonishment.
In this world, a muscular and knotted physique is not considered beautiful; most cultivators who do not practice transformation typically have a more well-fed appearance.
A well-fed appearance means a slightly protruding stomach and a slightly overweight body, which is the most standard illustrative physique in various Cultivation Techniques.
Although his muscles had enlarged, his physical constitution had indeed improved a lot. This practice session had greatly advanced his ‘Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,’ reaching the middle stage of the early-stage Foundation Establishment level of ‘Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill.’
