Chapter 187 Preparations before Migration, Dragon Clan Body Refining Technique

The dragon blood tree has a unique shape and stands proudly.

Its trunk is as straight as a sword, and its surface is covered with weathered textures, as if recording the traces of time. Its crown is dense, and its branches and leaves are emerald green. Each leaf seems to be carefully carved, sparkling with a faint golden light.

What’s even more peculiar is that inside the trunk of the Dracaena tree flows a bright red juice that looks like dragon’s blood, which is why it got its name.

The aura emitted by this spiritual tree seemed to have a unique attraction, which could draw the surrounding spiritual energy to gather and form vortex-like air currents. Whenever Chen An approached it, he could feel a warm and powerful inexplicable force surging into his body, slowly nourishing his body.

Although this phenomenon is not enough to improve his physical body in a short period of time, if a fifth-level physical cultivator practices here for many years, the gains will be considerable.

Standing in front of the dragon blood tree, Chen An concentrated and calmed himself, slowly took out the dragon blood, and carefully poured it on the roots of the dragon blood tree.

With the infusion of dragon blood, the dragon blood tree seemed to be injected with new vitality. A faint golden light flowed among the branches and leaves. Chen An could feel that after this spiritual tree quickly absorbed the essence of dragon blood, it gradually radiated a deeper glow.

Seeing that the dragon blood had been almost completely absorbed by the dragon blood tree, Chen An had an idea and took out several fifth-level spiritual plants from his storage bag. He took a deep breath, mobilized the magic power in his body, and performed the Soul-Snatching Technique.

Under the effect of the Soul-Snatching Technique, those spiritual plants quickly withered and turned into pure plant essences, which were continuously infused into the roots of the dragon blood tree.

As the spiritual plants were consumed one by one, the progress bar above the dragon blood tree slowly rose, and before long, the progress bar was full.

Nine blood-red fruits slowly grew on the branches of the dragon blood tree. These fruits were crystal clear and exuded an enticing aroma.

[Harvest a 500-year-old dragon blood fruit and obtain dragon blood essence]

Chen An held in his hand a blood essence the size of a pigeon egg. It had a perfect oval shape and was crystal clear, like a dazzling blood gem, emitting a faint red halo.

It is about the size of a pigeon egg, but contains amazing energy and vitality.

The essence of dragon blood contains rich dragon blood power. This power is strong and pure. For body cultivators, it is undoubtedly an extremely precious resource.

If swallowed directly, it can continuously nourish the cultivator's meridians and bones. Long-term consumption of dragon blood essence can even allow the cultivator's body to transform into a dragon body, possessing powerful dragon might and power.

This is a rare treasure, but unfortunately Chen An does not have the fifth-level body refining method now, so he cannot make the most of this essence for cultivation.

However, Chen An was not worried. He had already harvested the essence of dragon blood, so how far would the body-refining technique be?
According to past experience, this dragon blood tree is most likely related to body refining, and there is a high possibility of gaining body refining related skills.

Chen An put away the dragon blood essence and walked out of the spiritual field silently.

The Chen family's preparations for relocation were almost completed in a short time thanks to Chen Qing's efficiency.

More than a hundred people are the elites of the Chen family. As long as Chen An gives the order, the clan members can be migrated to the Tianyuan Continent within a few days.

However, Chen An was not in a hurry to move.

After harvesting a few five-colored lotus seeds and cultivating a five-colored divine light, you can enhance your own capabilities, have a better grasp of self-protection, and then it won’t be too late to go there.

It's just a few years, he can afford to wait.

Moreover, Chen Fengshuo and Chen Long have both completed their Dan formation and are about to form an infant. It would be safer if they could make a breakthrough on the mountain first and increase the strength of their tribe before migrating.

Five years later.

In the cave, Chen An sat upright on the five-colored lotus platform and slowly stopped practicing his martial arts.

With the help of this treasure and the Jade Spirit Pearl, as well as the spiritual marrow diamonds that Qingze and the other two searched for from the Sea of ​​Turbulence from time to time, Chen An's cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.

Although there is still a long way to go before the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, as long as he practices hard for a dozen years, he will be able to break through again.

However, in order to cope with future heavenly tribulations, he cannot stay in Kuxiu Mountain to practice all the time. He must send his people to Jianghuang City in Tianyuan Continent to find higher-level spirit seeds and make preparations for future practice.

The most important thing is, without Chen An's protection, Qingze and the other two would definitely not be able to protect so many clansmen and help them safely travel through the sea of ​​​​turmoil, successfully reach the Tianyuan Continent, and then settle in Jianghuang City.

Originally, with the help of Chen An, the three of them were not slow in mastering the True Essence Body Protection Technique. However, after all, they did not have Chen An's overnight success, so they could not achieve success in one go and could only practice slowly.

Even so, with the addition of Chen An, they could still work together to escort more than a hundred members of the Chen family across the sea of ​​​​turmoil.

"problem occurs!"

Chen Qing ran into the cave in a panic. The migration of the tribe members had not been completed yet, and he had not yet accepted the punishment of facing the wall for twenty years. He was still managing the affairs of the tribe.

"In the four continents, most of the Divine Transformation cultivators have gone there, so what else can go wrong?"

Chen An said lightly, just raising his eyelids and looking at Chen Qing.

"Most of them are gone, so there are still a few left!"

Chen Qing sighed and said, "The two old demons from the Nine Nether Sect and the Blood Bone Sect have already started to attack the righteous path. They have seized three cities of scattered cultivators and used them as bases to continue northward. The next step may be to go deep into the heartland of the righteous path."

"Don't worry, wait for them to fight again. The Wanjian Sect hasn't said anything yet, so why are you in such a hurry?"

With migration imminent, Chen An didn't want to care about righteous affairs at all.

But Chen Qing was unwilling to do so. He said hurriedly, "It's not appropriate. We need to solve it as soon as possible. The migration to Tianyuan Continent has not been completed yet. Dongzhou is the only place where the Chen family lives. We cannot lose it for the time being. Otherwise, if we lose the Tianyuan Continent and the Demon Dao messes up Dongzhou, our family will not even have a place to stay in the future. It will be difficult to make a comeback."

This is the worst outcome, but as the apparent leader of the Chen family, he had to make this plan.

If Chen Shuang and others really fail in Tianyuan Continent, the Chen family can also slowly develop in Dongzhou and try to make a comeback.

Chen An naturally knew the pros and cons of this. After pondering for a moment, he nodded and said, "You are right. Dongzhou is still useful to my Chen family. We cannot let the demons do whatever they want."

"I have already thought about this matter and will deal with it. You can go down first."

Chen Qing got a clear answer, his brows relaxed, and he left with satisfaction.

Since he has decided to take action against the evil, Chen An will not sit on the sidelines and watch the fight between two tigers. It is true that the seven swords of Wanjianmen can join forces to resist the God Transformation, but the opponent is two demon cultivators who have reached the God Transformation stage. He can resist them for a while, but not for too long.

Immediately, Chen An left the cave, woke up Xiao Jin who was sleeping soundly in the forest, and told him to go to Peiling Island to call Qingze and the other two.

"Don't be afraid. I won't pluck your life feathers."

Seeing Xiao Jin trembling with fear, Chen An smiled helplessly and said, "Since you still keep the feather I gave you before, I can use it to cultivate my magical powers. I won't have any ideas about you anymore."

Chen An needed the innate feathers of the fire-attributed divine beast to cultivate his magical powers, so he naturally explained this to the Golden Crow Bird and asked him to prepare himself mentally and physically.

After hearing this, Xiao Jin got furious and said he would not give it to him no matter what. After all, without his natal feather, his essence would be greatly damaged.

However, Chen An threatened Xiao Jin with the Jinwu grass that he needed to swallow every day, and promised to make up for it in other ways in the future, using both kindness and force to force Xiao Jin to succumb to his power. However, Chen An accidentally discovered that Xiao Jin had been carrying the feather of the incarnation of the Jinwu, which was given to Chen An by Xiao Jin's biological mother. Seeing this feather, Chen An immediately changed his mind.

Compared to Xiao Jin's natal feather, the one from the Golden Crow is more suitable for practicing the Five-Colored Divine Light!

Chen An almost forgot about this!
However, with this feather in hand, there was no need for him to pluck the other person's hair.

Xiao Jin was skeptical about this matter until he learned that Chen An only asked him to go to Peiling Island through the teleportation array and call Qingze and others over. Only then did he feel relieved.

"Is that Qingluan here too?"

"over there."

Chen An recalled the time when this guy was looking for the mother bird, and quickly reminded him, "What do you want to do? Don't do anything reckless. If you get killed, no one will collect your body."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything rash. Chen Guangzhi once told me that you can't hang yourself on one tree when looking for a spouse. If you can't find one, just look for the next one."

Xiao Jin patted his chest and vowed, then spread his wings and flew high, circling happily over the North Mountain for several circles before heading towards the teleportation array.

Seeing his confident look, Chen An burst out laughing. Other aspects were fine, but there was no way he could succeed in courting a mate if he listened to Chen Guangzhi's advice!

After waiting for a while at Beishan, the teleportation array on the top of the mountain lit up again, followed by four figures.

Leading the way was the Golden Crow Bird, which walked with its head held high and in high spirits, in stark contrast to its usual erratic nature.

Bringing Huoyu and the other two to Chen An, the Golden Crow looked at the jade slips in Huoyu and the other two's hands and said with a smile, "The current situation of the Demonic Path and the specific information of the two demons are all recorded in the jade slips. You can refer to the information and make your own decisions. In addition, several spies of the Chen family are near Sanxiu City. You can contact them at any time if you need anything."

"With your strength, it should be easy for you to deal with the two demon cultivators. I'm sorry to bother you with the trip. I still need to practice, so I won't bother you any more. I'll be waiting for your triumphant return at Beishan."

Seeing this, Huoyu hurriedly said, "Thank you very much. You can go and do your work."

She watched the Golden Crow bird go into the woods, then looked at Chen An and said, "Xiao Jin has already informed us about the rampant demon cultivators. Master, please wait a moment. The three of us will be back soon."

After saying that, the three of them soared into the sky and headed towards the Black Wind Mountains. Judging from their direction, they were going to cross the mountains and head straight for the Jiuyou Sect and the Xuegu Sect's lairs.

It was not until now that Chen An realized that the Golden Crow Bird had already arranged everything?

Without the black-haired beast to collude with him, this guy sleeps all day. When did he become so interested in practicing magic? And what about the jade slip just now? From what he said just now, it seems to record the detailed situation of the magic path.

Chen An was puzzled and planned to find Xiao Jin who had gone into the woods to ask him about it, but he found that the other party was really breathing and practicing seriously.

"This guy!"

Chen An laughed and scolded, "You bastard, now that everyone has left, stop pretending."

Hearing this, the Golden Crow purred and climbed up, flapping its wings, and hopping in front of Chen An: "Master, how is it, am I acting fairly steady?"

"steady?"

Chen An suddenly realized what was going on. If his guess was correct, the Golden Crow Bird was trying to attract Huo Yu with his mature and steady side. However, why did this seem so familiar? He seemed to have seen it in Chen Guangzhi's booklet on how to pursue older female cultivators.

Among them, maturity, stability, reliability and loyalty are the key points summarized by Chen Guangzhi.

"Take care of yourself. I think you should listen to Chen Guangzhi and don't hang yourself on a tree. Otherwise, I'm afraid Huoyu will beat you to death after a long time."

Chen An felt that there was nothing wrong with being "mature, stable, reliable and loyal", but the problem was with the Golden Crow bird.

Although Huoyu is a demon beast and has spent most of her time practicing, she has lived for hundreds of years after all. It would be difficult for the Golden Crow Bird to deceive her in the long run.

Leaving the Golden Crow Bird to fend for itself, Chen An returned to the cave and waited for the outcome.

Not long after, before any news came from the Demonic Path, news came from the Mermaid Island that a large number of Yakshas were moving out.

It was probably because Qingze and his two companions had last ambushed a Yaksha island stronghold and wiped out all the spiritual plants on it, which angered the Yaksha tribe and caused them to step up their vigilance.

Now, the entire riot periphery is filled with a large number of Yakshas trying to find the three thieves.

Even the mermaids were implicated and had several fights with the Yakshas. However, what was strange was that the Yakshas did not launch a large-scale attack this time, but chose to forbear, and only a few small-scale conflicts occurred.

As for why they didn't resort to war this time, Chen An glanced at the book of the Five Poisons Curse Soul in his hand, and saw Ge Jin's embarrassed face appearing on the pages, and he could vaguely guess in his heart.

It was probably because of the great elder of the Yaksha tribe that he was cursed repeatedly and was seriously injured. He probably wouldn't dare to attack the mermaids as recklessly as before.

As for the Yakshas who were searching for Qingze and the other two outside the Sea of ​​Riot, Chen An was not worried. No matter how powerful they were, it would be difficult for them to go deep into the Sea of ​​Riot, which was millions of miles deep, and find the existence of Peiling Island.

Chen An was not worried at all and practiced in the cave for a while.

Not long after, Huoyu and his two companions returned, bringing with them two bloody human heads.

After taking a casual look, Chen An threw the two corpses into the spiritual field and took the two jade bottles from Huoyu.

Inside are the souls of two gods and demons. Their use, of course, is to be used to advance to the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Puppet. It is not easy to kill two gods, so naturally it cannot be wasted.

Without the God of Transformation, the Demonic Path is like a tiger without claws and fangs, and can do nothing. The rest can be left to the Wanjian Sect.

It is worth mentioning that when Huoyu and the other two recovered and walked out of the cave, the Golden Crow Bird strode out of the woods with its head held high and stepped forward to congratulate the three on their triumphant return.

Chen An shook his head slightly, not wanting to bother with him, and just focused on his own practice.

Time flies, and another ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

As early as a few years ago, Chen Fengshuo and Chen Long also successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage in Kuxiu Mountain and became one of the top cultivators in the Chen family.

The entire Chen family celebrated again. At the same time, the two people's condensation of infants also inspired more clansmen, stimulating them to practice harder, and even triggered a wave of hard practice on the mountain.

Although the time for migration had come, Chen An still waited for a few years.

Even after his cultivation had broken through the fourth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, the dragon blood tree did not mature again.

Looking at the dragon blood tree that had matured for the third time in front of him, Chen An's expression showed a bit of anticipation. At the same time, he slowly lowered his head and looked at the golden whip in his hand.

Over the years, the dragon blood tree has matured again. This is the dragon-beating whip harvested from the 700-year-old dragon blood tree. According to the information fed back to Chen An after refining the treasure, this whip seems to be specifically used to restrain dragons.

But none of this matters. The dragon blood tree has matured for the third time and is now nine hundred years old. Looking at the dragon blood fruit on the tree, Chen An jumped forward to pick one.
