@ Roaring Ocean.
As the ripples spread, Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged on the spiritual ship, began to tremble. His breathing quickened and the coldness in his eyes quickly turned into madness.
Because he was hungry!
An unprecedented hunger!
The source of this hunger was that his withered body needed a large amount of replenishment to recover. Even the purple crystal could not help him with this.
The purple crystal could accelerate his recovery.
It could help him recover, but it could not provide him with Qi, blood, and nutrients out of nothing.
The other source of his hunger was behind Xu Qing!
There seemed to be nothing behind him, but both the Great Ancestor of the Vajra Sect and the Shadow were extremely nervous. They could sense that there was great danger and ferocity behind Xu Qing.
Xu Qing knew that there was something behind him.
To be precise, what made the King Kong Sect's patriarch and the shadow fearful and nervous was his back. When the Golden Crow opened its eyes, it formed a totem there.
This totem was in the shape of the Golden Crow. It exuded a soul-stirring aura.
This was the second stage of activating the Seed of Legacy!
Xu Qing had spent the past ten days studying the information of the Golden Crow Refinement of All Spirits. He knew that activating the Seed of Legacy required two steps.
The first step was to activate the Seed of Legacy and turn it into a totem that was branded on his body.
The second step was to make this totem appear outside and form a shadow of Qi and blood. Only then would the Seed of Legacy be completely activated!
The second step required a large amount of Qi and blood to nourish, which was why he felt hungry!
Xu Qing's eyes were bloodshot as he breathed heavily. He turned to look at the King Kong Sect's patriarch.
The King Kong Sect's patriarch trembled. He felt as if Xu Qing was going to swallow him whole. He quickly revealed his body and deliberately turned it transparent to show that he had no Qi and blood.
Xu Qing looked away and looked at the shadow.
The shadow trembled under his gaze. "Bring them up."
Due to the withering of his body, Xu Qing's voice had also become extremely hoarse. When he spoke, the shadow did not hesitate at all. The part of the shadow that had fused into the sea suddenly flung out. Immediately, a huge Ironback Fish broke through the water's surface and was sent to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing stared at the Iron-Back Fish, and the totem on his back suddenly heated up. It seemed to want to transform, but it couldn't do so yet. It could only transform into pieces of golden feathers that looked like phoenix feathers around Xu Qing.
As the feathers spun rapidly around him, they formed a suction force that swept towards the Iron Turtle.
In the next instant, the body of the Ironback Fish, which was over a thousand feet long, began to tremble. All of the power of blood and Qi within its body began to dissipate.
The Qi and blood gathered together to form a ball of blood that was hundreds of feet wide. At that moment, it was continuously shrinking and being refined. In the end, 99% of it dissipated and turned into a drop of golden blood.
At the same time, Xu Qing waved his hand and a ball of black flames enveloped the Iron Turtle Fish, extracting its soul.
The shadow couldn't help but take a deep breath. After losing its soul and power of blood and Qi, it swallowed the foreign spiritual energy without wasting any of it.
It was like eating a meal. Soon, the shadow sent the second sea beast over, followed by the third and fourth.
…
In the past ten days, after Xu Qing studied the Golden Crow's Ten Thousand Spirits Refinement, he intentionally reared some sea beasts in captivity. Therefore, the phoenix feathers on his back soon absorbed as many as 23 sea beasts.
As the phoenix feathers absorbed more sea beasts, not only did more of them appear, but they also nourished Xu Qing, causing him to feel less dry and painful.
He recovered a little.
He could clearly feel that his physical strength had improved from its stagnant state. His speed had increased, and his strength had increased. At the same time, he also had some strange senses.
This feeling seemed to be the resonance of some spells. Xu Qing vaguely felt that he didn't need to make any hand seals to cast spells that he had never learned before.
However, after trying, he couldn't do it.
'Could it be that this is what the Golden Crow's Ten Thousand Spirits Refinement described — seizing the talent of a race? But I've refined too little, so I can't form it!
Xu Qing was deep in thought. However, at this moment, his hunger was only slightly alleviated. He was still very hungry, so he didn't have time to think too much. As his eyes were bloodshot, he simply stood up, put away the spiritual boat, and stepped into the sea.
The moment he entered the sea, Xu Qing's body immediately activated the Mystic Lotus Mode with a boom. The totem on his back exuded an intimidating aura, causing the pressure Xu Qing exuded to be extremely heavy. Next to him, the King Kong Sect's Patriarch's body was covered in lightning. The lightning patterns on the black metal skewer flickered as it followed Xu Qing's left.
The shadow spread out and entered the surroundings. Hundreds of eyes could be vaguely seen in the surroundings. As they opened, they outlined the outline of a large tree. It was a shocking sight.
At this moment, Xu Qing's overall combat strength had already surpassed Guan Jing's. Although he still couldn't do as he pleased in the Forbidden Sea, to a certain extent, he could already command an area.
The surface of the sea roared, and torrents surged under the sea. Xu Qing's figure instantly disappeared into the distance as he began his massacre.
He needed more sea beasts and more origin blood. Only then could he alleviate this maddening hunger. Only then could he complete the second stage of his Seed of Inheritance and completely activate it.
Time passed day by day. Half a month later.
In a remote part of the Forbidden Sea, the sea suddenly roiled and instantly exploded. A giant Sea Dragon more than five thousand feet long leaped out of the sea.
Its ferocious appearance, terrifying aura, and sharp teeth that were still exposed even when its mouth was closed made it a nightmare for most of the merchant ships and cultivators in the Forbidden Sea whenever it appeared.
The Sea Dragon was clearly marked in the Seven Blood Boys' Sea Journal. This was the top hunting species in the Forbidden Sea. Their ferocious and terrifying bodies, coupled with their mutated cultivation, made their combat strength extremely shocking.
At this moment, this Sea Dragon was even more extraordinary. The moment it leaped out of the sea, it could be seen that there were two balls of red flames burning in its body. This was a Sea Dragon that had cultivated two balls of Life Fire.
Its momentum was so strong that it roared in all directions the moment it appeared.
The sea surface exploded for thousands of feet, but at this moment, its eyes were no longer as cold as before. Instead, they were filled with deep fear.
If one took a closer look, they would be able to see that there was a circle-like mark on its stomach.
This mark was in the shape of a big tree. Hundreds of eyes were open and blinking constantly, like a big mouth, crazily devouring its shadow.
…
At the same time, under the surface of the sea, a series of earth-shattering lightning bolts whizzed up, and a black iron skewer surrounded by lightning was clearly visible. It approached at an astonishing speed and directly pierced through the Sea Dragon's body.
With a boom, the Sea Dragon's body shook violently, and the penetrated part directly exploded. The intense pain made it unable to open its tightly closed mouth, and it wanted to let out a wail.
But it couldn't open its mouth!
The wail couldn't be completely released, so it turned into a cry. At this moment, as the sunlight scattered, one could clearly see the figure of a young man standing in its mouth. The young man was wearing a purple Taoist robe and was standing between the Sea Dragon's teeth. His hair was like black jade with a tantalizing luster, and water droplets could be seen.
As the Sea Dragon shook violently, the young man's long hair fluttered, and the water droplets on it fell. The droplets were as black as ink, like rain.
Some sprinkled on his face, and as they flowed away from his delicate porcelain skin, his face was also exposed to the sunlight.
It was an extremely beautiful face, with long eyebrows like willows, a body like jade, and long black hair scattered behind his neck. It was wild and stunning at the same time.
His eyes were even more bewitching, and his bewitchment didn't lie in his intoxicating face, but in the mysterious temperament he exuded.
He raised one hand and clasped it between the Sea Dragon's upper teeth. His feet were like nails, fiercely piercing the Sea Dragon's lower teeth.
With his own strength, he firmly locked the Sea Dragon's mouth, preventing it from opening!
This young man was Xu Qing!
In the past half a month, he had killed a lot of sea beasts, so the totem on his back was not far from the completion of the second stage. His body had also become more and more powerful under the nourishment of the Golden Crow Totem's devouring of the origin blood.
Not only had his body recovered, but his strength and speed had also increased terrifyingly, far more than before. Even now, his physical strength alone was enough to make the Sea Dragon unable to struggle to open its mouth.
From this, it could be seen that …
At this moment, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the Black Devil Fire in his body burst out, covering the Sea Dragon he had been chasing for half a day. At the same time, the totem on his back also transformed into countless golden phoenix feathers.
These phoenix feathers kept spinning, exerting a suction force to refine the Sea Dragon.
The Sea Dragon roared and struggled with all its might to fall back into the sea. The moment it sank, a Plesiosaurus rushed out from under the sea and slammed its body into the Sea Dragon, blocking it.
Although the Plesiosaurus quickly collapsed, this obstruction allowed Xu Qing to finish covering the Sea Dragon with the Black Devil Fire. At this moment, the Golden Crow Refining All Spirits technique was fully launched.
A mournful roar came out from the Sea Dragon's teeth. With a bang, the Sea Dragon's body scattered a large amount of Qi and blood, which was constantly gathered and refined. Finally, it turned into a mass of origin blood and merged with the phoenix feathers.
At this moment, its soul also appeared in Xu Qing's body, becoming firewood to burn, blasting open his 47th and 48th Dharma Apertures!
During this period of time, Xu Qing had killed a lot, and before this, he had opened 46 Dharma Apertures.
At this moment, as he rushed out, the Dharma Power in his body instantly surged, and the nourishment from the Golden Crow Refining All Spirits surged again, causing cracking sounds to come from his body. His already beautiful face became even more eye-catching, and the strength of his physical body increased by a large margin!
"I just need to devour a few more sea beasts, and the second stage of the Golden Crow Refining All Spirits technique will be completely completed. At that time, the totem will be formed, and my Emperor-level cultivation method will be truly integrated into my body. It can't be taken away."
As he muttered, Xu Qing's body flashed, and he disappeared into the distance. The Sea Dragon, which had lost everything and turned into a dried corpse, sank to the bottom of the sea. Its shadow quickly spread out, and it hurriedly followed Xu Qing, at the same time expressing its annoyance.
It felt that its Shadow Devouring was too slow, and the Sea Dragon was killed before it could show its power. Therefore, it expressed its grievance to the King Kong Sect's Patriarch.
It was rare for the King Kong Sect's Patriarch to not take the opportunity to create a shadow. He raised his head and looked at Xu Qing's departing figure, his long hair dancing under the sunlight and his body covered in a purple aura. His heart was already in turmoil.
He had witnessed Xu Qing's murderous intent, his madness, his strong attraction to the opposite sex, and his path of becoming stronger and stronger. All of this caused a strong thought to emerge in his mind.
