The golden crow falls in the west and the jade rabbit rises in the east. One day has passed and the silver snake is still motionless, as if an eminent monk has entered concentration. Time is always fair, it will not stop because of someone or something, it will only keep moving forward...
The sun rises and the moon sets, the moon disappears and the sun appears. In the blink of an eye, nine days and nine nights have passed. During this period, the light on the silver snake gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared completely. A new change has appeared: the body of the silver snake has grown again. It is already as thick as a bucket and more than five feet long. Two thin blue and green lines appear on its back, extending from the sharp corners of its head to the tip of its tail. Originally, The eyes that reveal wisdom and look like an adult have become as penetrating and profound as a mixture of a wise man who has seen everything and an old man who has experienced vicissitudes of life, but from time to time there is a trace of confusion.
"Who am I? Where am I? I...yes, I am Yunlong; no, I am the Holy Spirit Tree; no, I am just a snake...ah, what is going on?" When Silver Snake was confused, many memories suddenly flashed through his mind, and they obviously did not belong to the same owner. In Silver Snake's sea of consciousness, various information continued to rotate, and finally merged together and poured into Silver Snake. In the newly formed soul.
"So that's it. It seems that I got a big bargain. From now on, I am both Silver Snake and Yunlong. They are indistinguishable from each other." Silver Snake, no, it should be Yunlong who came from time to time, thought to himself.
It turns out that the Silver Snake was originally an Oolong sea snake that had grown for thousands of years. Legend has it that this snake was born from the cross between the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon and the Deep Sea Black Dragon in ancient times. It possesses the fine bloodlines of the two great beasts in one body. It has an amazing talent, so it is jealous of the sky and is extremely difficult to grow.
Especially in the juvenile stage, the shell of dragon eggs is extremely hard. Even in ancient times, it was considered a high-quality weapon refining material. Therefore, it is coveted by practitioners. Nine out of ten are snatched and killed. Even if there are some who survive, it is because of the egg shell. It is too hard to break out of the shell, so it can only fall into a deep sleep and eventually become a spiritual stone.
Even if they are lucky enough to break out of the shell by chance, they will easily die due to lack of parental care (dragons in ancient times never take good care of their offspring, especially hybrids like Silver Snake, who basically leave them alone after birth) ).
And even if it is born, it is completely inferior to its excellent bloodline. In its childhood, it can only fight hand-to-hand, cannot use magic, and has low intelligence. It cannot be compared with other ancient beasts and prehistoric alien species. Even the Dragon Clan is ashamed to mention it, and even refuses to admit it at all. He is a member of the Dragon Clan. So as time goes by, others gradually regard its origin as a joke or even forget it.
Since the number of Oolong Sea Snakes is rare, and individuals have little use value and characteristics, their origins have gradually disappeared from people's memories. Perhaps only those famous sects that have been passed down to ancient times have sporadic records. This Oolong sea snake was a lucky one born thousands of years ago. Due to the dangers in the sea, it escaped to the land more than 300 years ago. It only returned to the sea for a year to complete the shedding period every hundred years. .
But this time, it was guided by its bloodline to come to this treasured place, and by chance, it completed a crucial step in its life, its first transformation - Chilong Transformation! In addition, why Silver Snake knows this should also start with the "Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruit" it ate and the soul of Yunlong and Spirit Tree.
"Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruit" is an extremely miraculous treasure of heaven and earth, especially the spiritual tree on which "Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruit" grows. He was blessed with no one to disturb him, and he opened his spiritual wisdom after growing up for thousands of years. However, because his body was too powerful, he could not transform his nature, so he had to explore the way of cultivation on his own. But with the deepening of cultivation, it discovered an incredible benefit!
As mentioned before, although the Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruit has unique effects, it has one shortcoming. Before the fruit has grown for less than ten thousand years and absorbed the fruit essence accumulated in the earth for generations, it can only be called the "Blue Sea Creature." "Fruit" cannot be regarded as the word "holy". Don't look at the difference between this word, the effect is the difference between heaven and earth.
As the saying goes, "A century-old red, a thousand-year treasure, a thousand-year-old ginseng runs deep in the ground." Even ordinary ginseng has various magical effects as it ages, not to mention the "Blue Sea Life Fruit" itself is a natural treasure and a rare root. .
Most of the functions of the ordinary "Blue Sea Life Fruit" are only to develop the potential of living things and enhance spiritual intelligence, and are only effective for non-human beings. But "Bihai Holy Spirit Fruit" is not the case. Not only is it more effective, but it can be used by any living being!
It is precisely because of the characteristics of "Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruit" that it treats all things equally, so that it unintentionally conforms to the characteristics of "wood" among the five elements. "Wood means straightness", that is, anything with the characteristics of growth, hair growth, coordination, smoothness, etc. All substances belong to wood, so invisibly, this spiritual tree has been promoted to the top of all acquired trees in the world, and is called the "Holy Spirit Tree".
Therefore, once the Holy Spirit Tree is formed, it can spontaneously contact all trees in the world, especially those of the same species, and they will obey them as if they know everything and can talk about everything. This Holy Spirit Tree has also benefited greatly from it. . This is all for later, let’s not mention it for now.
Let's say that after the Holy Spirit Tree gained spiritual intelligence, it began to practice independently. However, because its body is too powerful, it is also very difficult to practice and advance. Don't you see, those little monsters and monsters can often transcend tribulations and transform after a hundred years of practice? But his cultivation is low;
However, it takes thousands of years for innate spiritual beasts such as dragons and phoenixes to overcome tribulations and transform into human beings. But once they successfully transform into human beings, they become powerful beings. This is like climbing a mountain. Some people don’t take anything with them. The speed was naturally very fast, but because I was not prepared at all, I was hungry with nothing to eat and thirsty with nothing to drink after the top of the mountain;
Some people bring heavy luggage with food and drinks prepared. Although climbing a mountain will be tiring and slow, once you reach the top of the mountain, you will be extremely relaxed and have nothing to worry about. This is the same as practicing cultivation.
Although the cultivation of the Holy Spirit Tree is slow, it is better because there is no one to disturb it. After tens of thousands of years, it has reached the peak of cultivation. As long as it survives the last and most dangerous thunder tribulation, the "Nine-fold Punishment Sky Blazing God Thunder Tribulation" ", you can transform into a human being and become an immortal in one step. And because the nine growing Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruits are connected with their luck, they can become nine clones of themselves after transformation, each with their own magical functions.
But when he was going through the tribulation, he was disturbed by the uninvited guest of the Silver Snake. Normally, the Holy Spirit Tree could easily kill the Silver Snake, but this time he had to concentrate on overcoming the tribulation and not be distracted. If it was just like this, that would be it, but the silver snake rubbed against the Holy Spirit Tree and carried out its thousand-year transformation.
As mentioned before, the Oolong Sea Snake was extremely weak before its first thousand-year transformation—that is, in its juvenile stage. However, everything in nature must have its purpose, and nothing will always be useless. This is the case with the Wulong Sea Snake. The key to all these changes lies in whether the first thousand-year transformation can be completed! As long as you can complete this transformation, you will undergo a qualitative change, shed your snake body, and begin to truly transform from snake to dragon.
It is precisely because the first transformation is so important and magical that the shed skin also has extremely special properties - the ability to interfere with the performance of all spells! ! No matter how powerful a practitioner is, as long as he is entangled in this snake skin, all his magic power will be blocked instantly and he will become an ordinary person.
According to legend, the rope used by ancient golden immortals to retain their grandchildren was made from the snake slough left over from the first millennium transformation of the Oolong Sea Snake. Therefore, it can bind immortals and demons without any disadvantages.
This time, the Holy Spirit Tree was accidentally entangled by a snake and was unable to cast spells. Finally, it was struck by thunder from the sky, which made it extremely aggrieved. This may be its fate. The Holy Spirit Tree has been going smoothly for thousands of years, without any disasters. But at the last moment, the success fell short, which can only be attributed to God's will - the moon waxes and wanes, and the water overflows. This is the principle of heaven and earth. .
But the Holy Spirit Tree's tens of thousands of years of cultivation is no small matter. It actually used the art of inheritance before dying, passing on all of its lifelong skills, spells, experiences, memories, cultivation experience, insights, and wisdom to its own nine fruits. , enabling it to grow into a living spiritual creature, just like its offspring.
He also condensed the essence of life into a tree seed, so that under the care of the nine Blue Sea Holy Spirit Fruits, he could have a chance to be reborn. This kind of calculation was not unreasonable.
However, because the Silver Snake was transforming on the tree, it also happened to absorb part of the life essence of the Holy Spirit Tree. Then, the Bihai Holy Spirit Fruit felt that the Silver Snake with the same source of power was dying, and spontaneously formed the "Nine Palaces Spirit Gathering Array" out of instinct. "Drawing a large amount of lunar moon flowers to heal the silver snake.
This also allowed Silver Snake to completely absorb part of the power of thunder and calamity transmitted to its body during the healing period. It integrated the spiritual power of the Holy Spirit Tree with the inherited power of its own bloodline, and actually evolved the "Thunderbolt" that generally requires a dragon to grow. "The Horn of Raging Waves", this horn can command thunder, divert water and set off waves, its power is astonishing.
Moreover, the Silver Snake merged with the soul of the mortal Yunlong, possessing human wisdom, thoughts, and the judgment and wisdom of the dragon clan. Therefore, it only hesitated slightly before taking the nine remaining spiritually intelligent ones left by the Holy Spirit Tree. The Bihai Holy Spirit Fruit was swallowed (the Bihai Holy Spirit Fruit had just given birth to spiritual wisdom after all, and the Silver Snake had the same source of power, so it did not resist), killing the hope of the Holy Spirit Tree's rebirth. Now, Silver Snake has initially digested the spiritual power of the Bihai Holy Spirit Fruit, its spiritual intelligence has been greatly improved, and its mana has increased dramatically. Although most of the spiritual energy in the body has not been fully absorbed, it has successfully completed the "Chilong Transformation" and initially has the strength to protect itself.
From then on, there will be a hidden dragon in the world who can turn the world upside down and stir up the storm in the future!
