第四千一百七十九章 鼐龙真人的杀手锏

“How can you know unless you try!”

Another long laugh echoed, and Dai Long True Man's face no longer wore a playful expression but instead exuded an air of grandeur.

Following this, his hands moved wildly, and a series of mystical hand seals appeared. Nine light balls the size of eggs flew out from various parts of his body: his forehead, chest, dantian, limbs, and two other acupoints. Each was crimson like blood, radiating an astonishingly fierce aura.

Then the light dispersed, revealing nine baby-sized元婴 floating before him. Although their sizes couldn't match those of the Great Demon Sovereign's元婴, they were solid and substantial, clearly having reached a great completion in cultivation. Moreover, each of these元婴 bore a striking resemblance to Dai Long True Man but displayed vastly different expressions: joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

Their demeanor and aura were also markedly different; some appeared mature and serious, while others wore a playful expression. Some looked like they had the appearance of immortals with their ethereal and dignified looks, while others seemed extremely frivolous and bored. In short, all the hues of human life were reflected in these nine元婴.

"Is this...?"

Tian Xiang's pupils constricted as he wore an expression of surprise for the first time: "Could your cultivation technique be... Nine Transformation Infant Art?"

Even when facing Li Yutong and Ice Spirit earlier, despite one becoming a True Immortal and the other a True Demon, it had not caused such astonishment. Dai Long True Man smiled without speaking, while everyone else present was filled with surprise.

Nine Transformation Infant Art is something that modern cultivators might not have heard of, but in ancient times, it was renowned far and wide. In those days, when the three realms were in chaos and true immortals descended to the mortal world, a battle took place at the Northern Pole's Yuan Guang Palace. The Arrogant King failed to transform into an immortal and disappeared without a trace.

The spirit realm, demon realm, and阴司界 all suffered, but the situation in the three thousand worlds was slightly better. Over time, people gradually forgot these events, but one thing caused great distress among the powerful beings of the three thousand worlds: the closure of the Immortal Spirit Channel!

This meant no one could ascend to immortality by transforming their feathers into wings. Although there was a rumor that light arcs would appear and the path to immortality would be revealed in five million years, this was still far too long.

For cultivators, time passed quickly; a decade in the mountains equaled a thousand years on earth. However, even with such an extended period, five million years seemed excessively long. It had become so long that it felt almost like a hopeless wait.

Of course, old monsters at the late stage of tribulation could break free from their lifespan constraints and thus were willing to endure this wait. But in practice, how many would have patience?

In essence, becoming an immortal was no longer their goal; they merely sought greater power. This is why true immortals felt a sense of fear towards those below them, fearing that if left unchecked, these beings might eventually replace them.

Born as true immortals, one naturally lacked the desire to pursue such immense power. However, for those in the lower realms, starting from ordinary humans and striving for greater strength became an instinctive drive. But now with the Immortal Spirit Channel closed, unable to ascend, what could they do? Sitting idly waiting five million years would surely lead to boredom.

Given that they couldn't fly to the immortal realm, their current spiritual resources had already reached a peak. Wanting more power was extremely difficult. Not everyone possessed the extraordinary talent like the Arrogant King.

What then?

Wasting five million years?

The great cultivators who were accustomed to intense training could not afford to be idle, and simply sitting in meditation seemed futile. They found themselves at an impasse.

Over ten thousand years passed, a new cultivation technique suddenly appeared in the three thousand worlds: Nine Transformation Infant Art, as Dai Long True Man was currently practicing.

This technique far surpassed even the second元婴 secret arts, including Lin Xuan's dual元婴 and demon pills. The terrifying aspect of this art lay in its ability to take a late-stage tribulation cultivator and, with great resolve, transform their mature元婴 into nine... Can you believe it? This was not only mind-boggling but also meant that even if one's cultivation realm dropped or their spiritual root was destroyed, their cultivation level could plummet to the point of being barely recognizable.

After all, transforming an元婴 into nine involved complex heavenly laws. It wasn't just a simple addition or subtraction game.

What then? If one's cultivation realm dropped, what next?

Of course, only retraining from scratch would follow. Step by step, they would cultivate each of the nine元婴 to reach the tribulation stage and beyond. Once fully matured, these元婴 could be merged for a complete transformation, akin to enduring countless trials before finally achieving success. Even if one couldn't ascend to immortality, their strength would undoubtedly soar, making them stronger than true immortals.

This technique was innovative and unconventional, drawing much attention from the great cultivators of the three thousand worlds. The prospect it offered was incredibly appealing. However, the first step required immense courage; risking the destruction of one's spiritual root to drop in cultivation realm was not without its concerns. A single misstep could lead to irreparable consequences.

Nonetheless, among the top cultivators of the three thousand worlds, there were always brave souls. Having weathered countless trials, they took this risk despite knowing the dangers involved. However, none of them succeeded; soon enough, they realized that transforming their元婴 into nine not only dropped their cultivation realm but also significantly increased the difficulty of further cultivation, even if their spiritual root remained intact.

The laws of nature dictated such a method as overly domineering. If this were all, it might have been bearable. However, shortly after, something unexpected happened: you transformed your元婴 into nine and dropped in cultivation realm, but your enemies didn't necessarily follow suit.

If the news wasn't leaked, that was fine. But once there were signs of a leak, would they really pass up such an opportunity? The answer was no; it was a gift from heaven! Why not seize this chance to settle old scores and seek revenge?

For example, there was a True Immortal known as the Vast Sky Sovereign, who was one of the top figures in his realm. Even if he wasn't on par with scattered immortals or demon kings, 1152
