Chapter 716: Nourishment from the Dragon Clouds

The sensation of being full had gone by now . He instinctively walked toward those clouds and unleashed his Golden Dragon Body again .



Golden scales covered his body . The dozen or so elemental clouds nearest him rippled slightly, and an intense feeling of friendliness overwhelmed him . However, the clouds did not descend from the skies like the last time .

'Is it that the elemental clouds which had been absorbed previously can't be absorbed a second time?'

Tang Wulin made an inference .

He continued walking but did not have to go far when the elemental clouds which had not been absorbed by him felt his bloodline aura . Subsequently, they descended from the sky and surged into his body .

Instantly, the feeling which he had felt previously returned . However, the sensations this time were less intense .

Tang Wulin tried moving forward . Only this time, the feeling of being satiated only became evident after he had absorbed one-third more elemental clouds than before .

Just like before, he retreated to a safe spot to meditate .

Tang Wulin was not certain of the benefits he would derive from these elemental infiltrations . The only sure thing was that after the infiltrations, his perception of the elements and spiritual powers were enhanced . His body's strength was also amplified due to the fusion of these elements .  That, at least, is good news .

He was, again, in a state of deep meditation .

Repeatedly, Tang Wulin would walk over to ingest the elemental clouds . After he had his fill, he proceeded to meditate .

After each meditation session, his consumption of the elemental clouds grew . The soufflé of elemental clouds eventually pervaded the sky with a faint golden color . Those elemental clouds tainted by Tang Wulin's bloodline could not be absorbed again .



When he absorbed the elemental energies for the ninth time, Tang Wulin noticed that his body had evolved .

After the elemental clouds he ingested were filtered through his body, the elemental energies would be directly absorbed by his body . He no longer had to stop and meditate to absorb the energies .

When Tang Wulin unleashed his Golden Dragon Body, his original golden scales had morphed . The change was not obvious, but Tang Wulin could feel an additional layer of enamel on his Golden Dragon Scales . His original scales were full of texture with every edge and corner having a sharpness that was precise and crisp . But now, with the passage of time, after absorbing these elemental energies, their surfaces became smoother with a translucent film on them . It was as if there was another layer of protection on the scales .

After Tang Wulin broke through the fifth and sixth Golden Dragon King seals consecutively, his body was under much stress . The strain was so great that he could feel his body's endurance greatly reduced . However, after absorbing these elemental energies, he noticed the numerous small wounds on his body were being healed and cleansed . Even the lurking injuries inflicted during his encounter with Long Yue had also been cured . His bloodline power had become even more potent and intense .

Tang Wulin was relieved and overjoyed, because the threat of the Golden Dragon King seals had been temporarily curtailed . He did not have to search for the heaven and earth treasures he needed to break through the seventh layer's seal immediately .

He already had a plan in mind to delay the breaking of the seventh layer's seal . He would only execute his best when he is well prepared .

It was life-threatening when he broke through the sixth layer . His body had nearly collapsed, and that fear was still fresh in his mind .

This gave him a deeper appreciation of the meaning of the double-edged sword Old Tang had cautioned him back then .

He had indeed reaped great benefits from this trip to the Dragon Valley . He did not know how much time had lapsed on the outside, so he decided to absorb as much elemental energy as he could . It was as good as taking the heaven and earth treasures!

As Tang Wulin proceeded to approach more elemental clouds, he suddenly heard a scream .

"Aargh!" The loud, piercing cry sounded familiar . Tang Wulin frowned as he turned to look in the direction of the scream .



Currently, he was nearing the edge of the plain . From the fringes of the forest, a figure dashed out . The lone figure ran doggedly in his direction .

She staggered as she ran . Her clothes were tattered and torn, and she wore a mask . 'Judging from her stature, is this not White Seven?'

White Seven's appearance was pathetic . The tears on her clothes revealed her fair skin . She was obviously terrified . In her terror, she made a misstep and fell on the ground .

A deep roar sounded . A shadow emerged from the forest and pounced on White Seven .


Its two feet were on the ground, but it had no wings on its back . It was a Land Dragon, but it did not look real . Its appearance was a translucent, iron grey in energy form .

This was Tang Wulin's first encounter with the living creatures of this small world . He was deeply curious .

He bolted toward White Seven . He tapped the ground with the tips of his toes, and his power burst forth producing a small crater in the ground . In the next instant, he was in front of White Seven and shielding her .

The Land Dragon's attacking capabilities were limited . Its forelegs were short and small, but it had long, sharp claws . It lowered its humongous head which came crashing toward Tang Wulin .

Tang Wulin snorted but did not dodge . In a brazen stance, he threw a punch with his right hand .

"Bam!" The Land Dragon's head and his fist collided, and the dragon gave off a whine . The energy form body disintegrated in a flash, turning into beams of light which scattered all over the place .

Tang Wulin felt his body warming . The energy of the annihilated Land Dragon had unexpectedly surged into his body .

However, there were no visible changes other than an increase in his body temperature . Absorbing the elemental clouds felt much better .

"You, you've absorbed it?" White Seven had already gotten to her feet . She recognized Tang Wulin who had earlier abandoned her .

"I think I've just saved your life," said Tang Wulin drily .

White Seven had her hands on her waist . "Who needs your saving? I was just feigning weakness, and waiting for an opportunity to destroy its energy core with my spiritual power . The energy from this Ironhead Dragon can strengthen one's physique . You should recompense me!"

Tang Wulin was speechless . He found it pointless to rebuff an irrational person . In a huff, he turned around and stormed off .

"Hey, don't you go away!" White Seven pulled at his sleeve .

Tang Wulin was offended . "What do you want?"

White Seven raised her head to look at him . Her voice faltered, "I'm very tired . I…" She did not finish her sentence when her body fell limp .

Tang Wulin instinctively pulled her arm to support her when he broke out laughing . She was exhausted beyond words, yet she had the gall to demand a compensation . She was, doubtless, suffering from late-stage princess complex!

He did not think that this was White Seven's first encounter with these elemental dragons . He detected her bloodline pulse was feeble .

Tang Wulin carried her and walked toward an unwieldy tree on the periphery of the forest . White Seven was rather light with a supple body . In spite of her tear-soaked and dirt-stained clothes, she still had a faint, fragrant scent about her .

Tang Wulin took out some clothes from his storage to cover and keep her warm .

'I can't just leave her here . Guess I'll have to wait until she wakes up . '

He was wondering about the elemental dragon he had just encountered . Although White Seven had only uttered a sentence, he concluded that the elemental dragon and the elemental clouds were somewhat different instruments playing the same tune . The difference was that the elemental dragon had attacking capabilities whereas the elemental clouds did not .

Both of them were essentially different, hence, the manner in which they were absorbed differed . Moreover, the elemental dragon's energy was less potent as it was absorbed directly unlike the elemental clouds which shot through his body .

'Strengthen one's physique, does it? Maybe it's because I already have a sturdy physique, that's why the feeling is not apparent . '

White Seven slept like a log . It was already dusk in this small world, but she was sound asleep .

Tang Wulin went foraging for some branches to build a fire .

Large chunks of beef were skewered and roasted on the fire, and a few pieces of flatbread were placed by the embers . He had brought ample food to this place . Furthermore, the rich origin energy from the elemental clouds which he ingested earlier was highly nutritious food .

Apart from the meat and flatbread, he brought out some canned vegetables whereby he cooked some soup in a small pot .

Tang Wulin's culinary skills may be limited, but he could still manage a few simple dishes .

In no time, a small pot of vegetable soup, flatbread toasted to a golden brown, and a roasted chunk of beef was ready to be served .

Tang Wulin was about to dig in when suddenly a girl appeared, like the wind, beside him . With a whistle, the flatbread flew into her palm, while she grabbed the beef with the other . The piping hot piece of beef did not even scald her . She turned around, stepped aside, and took a quick bite before he even had time to react . Then, she smirked triumphantly at Tang Wulin .
