Dragon Prince Yuan - Chapter 389

Chapter 389: 389

Zhou Yuan’s face was still creased with worry when he returned to his cave dwelling, likely still fretting over how he would obtain a Heaven Credit in three months . Due to old Xuan’s seniority and rich history in the Cangxuan Sect, Zhou Yuan did not dare to doubt the weight of the old man’s words . He felt that if he truly angered the latter, there was probably no way he could keep the Taiyi Green Wood Mark .

All he could do now was obediently follow old Xuan’s instructions, and hand him a Heaven Credit in three months

In the cave dwelling, when Yaoyao could not help but ask when she saw Zhou Yuan’s expression, “What happened?”

Zhou Yuan gave a bitter laugh as he reiterated what happened with old Xuan .

“A Heaven Credit?” Yaoyao lifted her head in astonishment upon hearing this . She naturally knew how difficult it was to obtain a Heaven Credit .

In fact, many highly experienced senior purple sash disciples were unable to obtain one even after numerous years .

Yaoyao quickly said, “Show me that Taiyi Green Wood Mark . ”

Zhou Yuan obviously had nothing to hide from Yaoyao . Therefore, he immediately retrieved the plant and handed it to Yaoyao .

Yaoyao observed the green plant, before she closed her eyes . Her Spirit was extremely powerful, enabling her to just barely detect the information hidden within the plant . Though it was not complete, a brief glance was all she needed .

A long while later, she opened her eyes and softly said, “What a formidable Genesis technique . As expected of something left behind by that old mister . ”

To elicit such high praise from someone like Yaoyao just goes to show how amazing the Taiyi Green Wood Mark was .

“Exchanging a Heaven Credit for a Genesis technique like this is indeed quite a bargain . ” Yaoyao remarked .

Zhou Yuan smiled bitterly as he nodded . He naturally knew that he was not losing out, but it was simply too difficult to obtain a Heaven Credit . After all, Heaven tasks only appeared a few times a year .

“Ask Shen Wanjin to keep a lookout first . ” Yaoyao suggested .

“As for you, you should find some time to refine the Genesis Star Pill, and quickly enter the fourth layer . If not, you won’t be able to complete a Heaven task even if you manage to obtain it . ”

Zhou Yuan nodded . This was what he had in mind as well . Shen Wanjin was doing quite well for himself in the Cangxuan Sect, and knew about all the latest rumours and gossips . With his aid, it would save Zhou Yuan the trouble of miserably camping at the mission hall every day . . .

As for himself, the most important thing now was to improve his strength .

Once he advanced to the fourth layer Alpha-Origin stage, he should be able to match Xu Yan in a direct fight, no longer having to resort to the same drastic measures he had utilized previously .

Hence, Zhou Yuan tasked Shen Wanjin keep an eye out for any information regarding the Heaven tasks, while he secluded himself deep within his cave dwelling as he prepared himself . He was waiting for the perfect timing to absorb the Genesis Star Pill to break into the next cultivation level .


This wait lasted for five days .

…



Deep within the cave, pure Genesis Qi continuously gushed out from the spring, filling the area with a light mist . A few breaths of the air here would immediately invigorate one’s spirits .

Zhou Yuan was silently seated on boulder beside the spring . His breaths were long and drawn-out, while his chest barely even moved, almost as if he was in a state of hibernation .

A long while later, he deeply exhaled from his nose as his eyes slowly opened .

Light surged in the depths of his eyes, as if they were gems containing a hidden glow .

After five days of preparation, he was now in tip top condition . This was the best time for him to absorb the Genesis Star Pill .

Zhou Yuan probed the interior of his Qi Dwelling, where more than seven hundred Genesis Qi stars were shining . As he breathed, strands of pure Genesis Qi spread, circulating within his Qi Dwelling .

“Although I am only at the third layer Alpha-Origin stage, the Genesis Qi foundation of my Qi Dwelling exceeds that of a sixth layer Alpha-Origin expert…”

“Take Xu Yan for example . In my battle with him, I could feel that he had between one thousand to one thousand five hundred Genesis Qi stars…”

“However, my Genesis Qi stars are formed from the peak grade 6 Omni Python Qi, making my much than his in terms of quality . ”

“I wonder how much my Qi Dwelling will grow after I advance to the fourth layer Alpha-Origin stage?”



Various feelings surged in Zhou Yuan’s heart . In the end, he took a deep breath, expelling all of these unnecessary thoughts . With a graphing motion, a jade box appeared in his hand, revealing a longan like green-jade pill within it .

A fragrant aroma spread, seemingly enriching the mist in the entire cave dwelling .

The pill slowly rose into the air, stopping in front of Zhou Yuan’s mouth, before being swallowed by him in one gulp .

Rumble!

The Genesis Star Pill instantly transformed into a boundless warm stream of energy, surging down into Zhou Yuan’s body like magma . It was as if a mad roaring dragon was wreaking havoc in his body .

The seemingly endless pure Genesis Qi caused Zhou Yuan’s body to expand substantially . The bones in his body creaked loudly, as if they were under a tremendous amount of pressure .

Zhou Yuan’s expression turned extremely serious . He immediately activated the Ancestral Dragon Scripture, gathering the violent and scorching Genesis Qi, and directing it along his channels .

Strands of Genesis Qi were refined by the Ancestral Dragon Scripture, before gradually being deposited into the Qi Dwelling where they converged into a whirlpool . In the end, a speck of light appeared deep within the whirlpool, growing brighter and brighter, before eventually transforming into a new Genesis Qi star that rose up to take its place in the Qi Dwelling .

Zhou Yuan was delighted as he felt the new Genesis Qi stars being formed in his Qi Dwelling . H promptly suppressed his emotions, and concentrated on refining the pure pill energy coursing through his body . . .

A medical fragrance emerged from deep within the cave, gradually growing stronger and stronger .

As time passed, the Genesis Qi fluctuations from Zhou Yuan’s body steadily began to climb . The air around him was affected as well, causing soft howls to emerge .



All of this indicated that Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation was rapidly growing .

However, while Zhou Yuan happily immersed in the increasing Genesis Qi in his body, he failed to notice the blood-red lump on his palm begin to stir, squirming as if triggered by something .

A faint blood-red glow blossomed like a resentful dragon which had finally awoken from its deep slumber .

Outside the cave dwelling .

In a garden, Yaoyao’s hair was tied up in a bun as she carefully tended to the gorgeous flowers . All of a sudden, her finger trembled as she was grabbing a flower .

The flower’s thorns pricked her skin, causing a sliver of dark red to appear .

Yaoyao frowned a little . She placed her finger between her lips, applying a slight pressure to it . Following which, she stood up and cast her clear eyes towards the depths of the cave dwelling .

In that brief moment earlier, she seemed to have heard the resentful roar of a dragon .

Her eyes widened slightly, before she sighed .

“Has it finally arrived . . . ”
