Seeing Hao Ren closing the door, Xie Yujia and the others also realized that Hao Ren was the only man in the room.
“How about… leaving the door open?” Hao Ren asked Xie Yujia.
“Close it. How can we sleep if the door is open?” Xie Yujia answered immediately.
Her casual answer made Hao Ren dizzy.
“I meant…” Seeing the change in Hao Ren’s expression, Xie Yujia added quickly, “Since the window is broken, it will be freezing if we keep the door open. It’s midnight, and we must have a good rest.”
There were only two rooms downstairs. Since Xie Yujia’s room was flooded, and she wouldn’t allow Hao Ren to sleep on the soaked sofa in the living room, she had meant for everyone to spend the half night here in this room.
“Ok…” Hao Ren nodded and said when he saw them just stand there. “You go ahead and sleep.”
There were still two sets of quilts in his closet, and he took them out and handed them to Xie Yujia.
Hao Ren’s room was not as big as Xie Yujia’s room on the first floor and thus didn’t have a small sofa like in her room. He had lived in this room since middle school. With the bed occupying most of the room, he could only make a small cot bed on the floor close to the desk.
When Xie Yujia spread the quilts skillfully, Hao Ren took out a blanket from the closet and spread it on the floor.
Duan Yao slept soundly with two naked lower legs extended from the rolled-up quilt. With a finger in her mouth, she seemed to be dreaming. Obviously, she hadn’t had a good night’s sleep for days.
One of her legs dangled on the floor, so Hao Ren reached out and placed it back on the bed before sitting cross-legged on the blanket and observing his realm.
After the complete recovery of his realm and the awakening of his dragon core, the black inspector’s token had activated all its functions.
Top-tier Dui-level.
Hao Ren felt his realm and received a clear message.
Top-tier Dui-level… Hao Ren rechecked his realm.
It was indeed top-tier Dui-level. He had broken through to top-tier Dui-level from mid-tier Gen-level!
Hao Ren couldn’t suppress his excitement.
He opened his eyes and saw that Xie Yujia was watching him.
The Lu sisters and Zhao Yanzi were already in bed. Lu Linlin and Lu Lili shared one quilt while Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi shared the other.
Duan Yao was still sound asleep, leaving a row of bite marks on her finger. Hao Ren wondered what delicacy she was eating in her dream.
“Congratulations,” Xie Yujia said to Hao Ren with a smile.
“Go to sleep.” Hao Ren smiled back at her.
Suddenly, Hao Ren felt the confidence and felt like he could protect them adequately. Just as Su Han said, he could be considered as a master now after reaching Dui-level and transforming into a dragon
The moon shone into the room from the broken window and accentuated Xie Yujia’s gentle beauty while she leaned on the pillow.
With her head resting on Xie Yujia’s shoulder, Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren with wide eyes. She was also happy for Hao Ren, but she didn’t know how to congratulate him.
Hao Ren had been sleeping this bed in the room ever since he was in middle school. It wasn’t big and looked a bit crowded with the five girls sleeping in it.
Xie Yujia hesitated for half a second and said, “If you are exhausted, you can sleep in the middle…”
There was a small gap between Xie Yujia and Lu Linlin. If Hao Ren wanted to sleep on the comfortable bed, he could squeeze in.
“Ugh… Forget it. I’m ok.” Hao Ren’s heart raced while he answered.
Hao Ren had succeeded in transforming into a dragon, withstood the Heavenly Tribulation, and fought a fierce battle with three metal-elemental dragons. Xie Yujia knew that he was exhausted and wanted him to sleep well.
Of course, if Hao Ren decided to sleep in the bed, he would be separated from them by the quilts. Anyway, Xie Yujia wouldn’t allow him to get under their covers.
Swoosh… A white shadow flew past the window.
Hao Ren turned his head and was about to shoot out a sword energy when he saw Little White hovering in the air outside of the window with a flattering expression and wagging its tail.
It flew into the room through the broken window and dashed toward the girls’ bed shamelessly.
Snap! Hao Ren reached out and caught its back legs, holding it to his side.
“Even I don’t dare to do it. How can you take the benefit?” Hao Ren thought to himself.
Little White struggled, still trying to climb into the bed, but it couldn’t escape from Hao Ren’s hold.
“You go to sleep now. I’ll cultivate some more,” Hao Ren said.
His realm was already solidified, but he didn’t know if more cultivators would come to make trouble even though the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators had been caught. That was why he stayed in the room.
Now that Little White came in, he had another male creature to alleviate the awkwardness.
“Wait… Little White is a male, right?” The question came to him suddenly.
“Good night, Gongzi!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili waved at Hao Ren and pulled up the quilt before going to sleep with sweet expressions.
In Hao Ren’s bed and quilt, they felt safe enough to fall asleep.
After shooting over ten energy arrows from the demonic bow, Xie Yujia was tired. She yawned and lied down in bed.
Zhao Yanzi also lied down but still looking at Hao Ren with a blush since she felt like Hao Ren had a unique presence after reaching Dui-level.
Time ticked on while the full Moon outside moved slowly between the ocean and the sky.
Breathing evenly, Hao Ren circulated his nature essence according to the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll. By this point, Little White had stopped struggling and began to snore.
“Transforming into a dragon.” The thought rose in Hao Ren’s mind.
The blood in his body seemed to be boiling while his body felt like two sharp things were about to shoot out of his forehead.
After solidifying his Dui-level, Hao Ren could transform into a dragon at any time. Compared with last time when he had forced himself into a dragon, he could transform into a more powerful dragon.
Suppressing the boiling nature essence, Hao Ren began to study his dragon core carefully.
There were altogether 256 openings unblocked.
Unblocking one opening was Kan-level; ten was Li-level; 40 was Zhen-level; 120 was Gen-level. These levels were used before the dragon transformation. The strength was decided by the number of unblocked openings in the dragon core, and this tier system was used to determine one’s individual strength.
However, after unblocking 232 openings and reaching Dui-level at which the cultivators could transform into dragons, the numbers of unblocked openings had a different meaning.
After unblocking 232 openings, the cultivators would reach Dui-level and transform into dragons, but not with 231 openings. After the 231st opening, each opening was not a simple cultivation opening used to absorb natural nature essence. Instead, they were life openings.
With the Lu sister’s help, Hao Ren had gained the Immortal Physique. Together with the huge amounts of nature essence that he had accumulated previously, he had quickly rushed to top-tier Dui-level. However, for the other dragon cultivators, it would be tough to reach 232 openings from 231 openings!
A total of 256 openings! It was a realm that ordinary young cultivators never dared to imagine!
There were only 28 openings between Dui-level and Xun-level, but it was challenging to unblock each of them!
Hao Ren was only four openings away from the 260 openings required by Xun-level, but these four openings meant another great elevation of realm for Hao Ren!
Unblocking the life openings required not only hard cultivation but luck. After all, each of the dragon cultivators who were in Qian-level or Kun-level was a cultivation genius among their peers!
Exhaling deeply, Hao Ren withdrew his arms slowly, and even his breath had a trace of nature essence.
He turned to look around the room and saw that all the girls were asleep, either pretend or real. Hao Ren picked up the necklace that had been broken during the dragon transformation and put it around his neck after fixing the broken chain.
The ocean breeze from the outside was very fresh, and Hao Ren felt like he was full of nature essence, a state totally different than when he was at Gen-level.
Curled beside Hao Ren’s feet, Little White was still sleeping.
Hao Ren kicked it lightly, but it moved reluctantly and continued to sleep.
Boom!
Like a cannonball, Hao Ren flew out from the broken window.
He reached out and sucked out Little White who was still sleeping. Sinking in the chilling wind, Little White was startled out of its dreams and changed into its snow lion form before it fell into the ocean.
Wearing only a black robe, Hao Ren stepped on Little White’s back, releasing the presence of top-tier Dui-level.
A big crater with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared on the peaceful ocean surface. The water in the crater was still flowing, but waster couldn’t fill this crater due to Hao Ren’s presence.
With his ten fingers, Hao Ren shot all 1280 sword energies!
The 1280 sword energies spread outward like many lights from the center of a circle!
Hao Ren raised his hands slightly.
All the sword energies shot up suddenly, forming a huge circular wall with an undeterminable radius.
Then, Hao Ren’s hands rotated slightly, and the sword energies moved on the edge of the circular wall with five-colored lights, blinding Little White’s eyes.
Suddenly, Hao Ren took out the jade slip with Mystic Water Sword Techniques in it and tried to merge his spiritual senses into it. After reaching top-tier Dui-level, Hao Ren’s nature essence had grown greatly and so had his spiritual senses.
In the blink of an eye, he had finished reading all 18 variations of the first sword strike; his remaining nature essence could open the pages on the second strike. Afraid to get too much for him to digest, Hao Ren put away the jade slip without hesitation!
The swiftly rotating sword energies shot up into a high point in the fly like a huge cone before condensing into a five-colored godly sword!
The five-colored sword dropped into Hao Ren’s hand, and he began to practice the Mystic Water Sword Techniques!
All 18 variations of the first strike!
Bang!
The ocean waves surged up with the attack!
Feeling the overwhelming nature essence fluctuations, the golden shield in his necklace struggled to get out.
Taking it as his practice partner, Hao Ren use the second variation of the first sword strike toward the golden shield.
The golden shield spun dozens of meters away after releasing a dash of golden light.
“Break!”
Hao Ren threw out the five-colored long sword and controlled it with his mind!
The five-colored sword chased after the golden shield which had come out for some fresh air.
The golden shield was angry at the chase and released blinding golden light.
The golden light lit up the entire ocean area as if a golden sun had risen. The supreme spiritual treasure had a hot temper!
“Five-elemental godly lightning!”
The lightning energy that was brewing in the five-colored sword broke the golden light and struck the surface of the golden shield.
As a supreme spiritual treasure, the golden shield got no scratches from the strike, but it felt humiliated that its golden light couldn’t block the five-colored sword. It crashed toward the five-colored sword continuously.
Since the five-colored sword was connected to Hao Ren’s spiritual senses, Hao Ren couldn’t withstand the savage attacks of the golden shield and withdrew the five-colored sword immediately.
However, the golden shield’s temper was roused, and it chased after the five-colored sword. After all, except for the powerful purple gold hairpin, it wasn’t afraid of anything!
Hao Ren used the other variations of the first sword strike repeatedly. Despite its great power, the golden shield had limited spiritual intelligence and was hit several times by the five-colored sword on the back.
Hum… Angered, the golden shield split into tens of thousands of small shields! From a distance, it seemed like a golden mountain had risen on the water!
Hao Ren split the five-colored sword into thousands of sword energies to tease it.
Boom!
The smaller shields shot out golden lights together toward the spinning sword energies.
Knowing that he couldn’t take the full-force attack of the supreme spiritual treasure, Hao Ren immediately made the sword energies disperse into the air.
Finding that the five-colored sword energies had disappeared, the golden shield shook with fury; it spun so fast that it sucked up tens of thousands of tons of water.
Looking at the golden shield which collected tens of thousands of tons of water around it, Hao Ren thought that the bad-tempered treasure might destroy a city if it got angry.
After glancing at the small five-colored sword in his palm, he put it back into his body. The sword energies that he condensed with nature essence were his natal dharma treasures, but they were far inferior to supreme spiritual treasures.
The five-colored sword energies with hundun power didn’t even leave a scratch on the golden shield. If he fought with a powerful cultivator who had a supreme spiritual treasure, he would probably need a supreme spiritual treasure too.
“This golden shield is a hot-tempered defensive treasure, so it isn’t a good treasure for me,” Hao Ren thought while he looked at the golden shield which was searching for its rival.
If the golden shield knew Hao Ren’s belittling thoughts, it would probably slap Hao Ren to death with a golden light.
“Come back!” Hao Ren beckoned to the golden shield.
After surging up tens of thousands of tons of seawater, the golden shield couldn’t find its rival since its spirit intelligence wasn’t high enough to detect that Hao Ren had withdrawn the five-colored sword energies.
Bang! It dropped water, creating a wave that was more than ten meters high. It was fortunate that they were far from the shore, and the wave would abate when it reached the beach.
After releasing thousands of golden lights, it returned to Hao Ren’s necklace reluctantly, determined to grow stronger after the provocation of Hao Ren’s five-colored sword energies!
After practicing the Mystic Water Sword Techniques on the vast ocean, Hao Ren felt refreshed all over. Then, he stepped onto Little White’s back and returned to his room.
After returning to its puppy form, Little White looked at Hao Ren morosely as if it were complaining to Hao Ren for not allowing it to sleep.
“Bad dog. Do you think I’d mistreat you?” Hao Ren sat on the blanket and pulled up Little White’s ears.
Thanks to the great breakthrough, he could try the Transformation Scroll again!
