"Try it first. Clear your mind, think of nothing, and let your body's instincts run the Coiling Dragon Art," Li Qi said.
Xue Jing took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and assud the stance required for the Coiling Dragon Art, trying his best not to think.
After several days of practice, he had already mastered the flow of the Coiling Dragon Art. Even without deliberately controlling it, once he assud the stance, his body instinctively began to operate, gradually stimulating countless nodes and cultivating the Coiling Dragon Art.
However, he could only maintain this state for less than three minutes before his spirit began to flutter restlessly, and he involuntarily took over control of his body again, actively running the Coiling Dragon Art.
Xue Jing opened his eyes and shook his head, "Master, I can't maintain that state for long."
But Li Qi was satisfied, "You don't need to maintain it for long, just being able to do it is enough."
"Genius is truly genius. You get it with just a hint. Compared to you, Chen Fuguang is simply a club. I almost died of frustration when I taught him back in the day."
"..." Xue Jing didn't know what to say, so he pretended he hadn't heard.
"I'll go prepare sothing. Just wait here, and don't move," Li Qi instructed.
Xue Jing nodded.
After Li Qi wheeled himself away, Xue Jing took out his phone and saw that he had an unread ssage on WeChat.
Opening it, he saw it was from Wu Youqing.
Xue Jing felt a thrill but realized it wasn't a job offer, just so files sent by the other party.
[Wu Youqing: These are materials related to the Divine Relic. Try to learn as much as you can, as you'll need it in the future.]
[Xue Jing: PandaHeadOK.jpg]
[Xue Jing: Big sister, when will there be work to do?]
On the screen, Wu Youqing sent an emoticon of Miao Miao patting a head to comfort soone.
[Wu Youqing: Don't rush. Our company doesn't have performance reviews. Even if we don't acquire a Divine Relic for a whole month, salaries will still be issued.]
[Xue Jing: Hey, what big sister says. The salary doesn't really matter to , I mainly enjoy acquiring Divine Relics.]
[Wu Youqing: Smirk.jpg. So you're saying it's alright if we don't send one then.]
...
After chatting with the wealthy CEO for a while and seeing that Li Qi hadn't returned, Xue Jing opened the materials about the Divine Relics that Wu Youqing had sent.
The Five Laws of Divine Relics
[First, Divine Relics are unique. All Divine Relics are one of a kind and cannot be replicated.]
[Second, Divine Relics cannot be destroyed. Even if a Divine Relic is physically pulverized to dust, it will reappear elsewhere in random form.]
[Third, Divine Relics invariably have side effects, which are independent of the power of the Divine Relic and follow no discernible pattern.]
[Fourth, Divine Relics possess a Transfer Nature. Any Divine Relic has unspecified random transfer capabilities triggered by unknown conditions, unpredictable in nature.]
[Fifth, Divine Relics are just that: Divine Relics. Even if they possess thoughts, emotions, language abilities, or even human appearance, they are just Divine Relics, not actual living beings. Therefore, no Divine Relic has human rights. To reiterate, no Divine Relic has human rights.]
"..."
Xue Jing carefully read through the five laws of Divine Relics, his finger lingering on the fifth point, "Divine Relics are just Divine Relics," his face thoughtful.
"I always feel sothing terrible must have happened for them to add this bizarre law," he muttered.
Shaking his head, he closed the docunt, then opened another one.
Divine Relic Atlas (lambda version)
As he clicked it, a long list of selectable serial numbers appeared.
[GOD-001·■■■■]
[GOD-002·The First■■]
[GOD-003·Divine■■]
[GOD-004·Erald■■]
[GOD-005·Mirror■■]
...
[GOD-015·Reversal■■]
[GOD-016·Ashes■■]
[GOD-017·In the Na of the Father■■]
[GOD-018·Death's■■■■■■Partiality]
[GOD-057·Golden■■]
[GOD-066·Future■■]
Xue Jing first started from the top hundred in the sequence, only to find that they were either entirely blocked or partially covered, and clicking on them would only prompt "Insufficient Permissions"; thus, he couldn't review the content.
He continued scrolling down, and from serial number 300, he occasionally glimpsed the full nas of the Divine Relics but still lacked the permissions to access the details.
Only after serial number 1000, when he clicked on a Divine Relic was he able to see a simple introduction.
Xue Jing randomly picked one.
[GOD·1057·Rapid Heart-Wrenching Pill]
[It will disguise itself as an ordinary heart-saving pill and often randomly transfers into the bottle of common heart-saving pills. After ingesting, it causes excruciating heart pain. The consur will not die or lose consciousness for any reason within two hours, remaining distinctly aware of the pain for the full duration.]
Xue Jing: "..."
What kind of devilish Divine Relic is this?
However, it could also be considered a life-preserving artifact, truly deserving of being called a Divine Relic, it completely defies reason—absolutely non-lethal within two hours...
As he was engrossed in his reading, the cultivation room's door opened, and Li Qi wheeled himself in.
In his hands, he held a porcelain dicine bottle, opened the stopper, and poured out a pitch-black pill, handing it to Xue Jing.
"Eat it,"
Li Qi said.
Without any suspicions, Xue Jing took it and threw it into his mouth, swallowing it directly.
The taste was peculiar, a strong dicinal flavor with a faint, hardly detectable fragrance mixed within.
Xue Jing asked, "Master, what is this?"
Li Qi slowly replied, "It is a Secret dicine concocted using the body fluid of a 'Dragon-type Creature' from the Intersecting Boundaries as the main ingredient. It has a certain level of hallucinogenic effects."
"... Can I ask what kind of body fluid it is?"
"So things are better left unknown," Li Qi said with profound aning.
Xue Jing: "..."
"Little Jing, look at ," Li Qi suddenly said.
Xue Jing instinctively t Li Qi's gaze.
Boom, Boom, Boom!
Xue Jing felt as though his brain was suddenly hamred, noises reverberating around his ears, his vision going white.
When his vision restored and he looked up again,
there was no trace of Li Qi in front of him, the entire cultivation room held only a dormant, lifelike old dragon!
The old dragon had four feet and five claws, its head adorned with qilin horns, its body covered with closely packed golden scales, yet it was scarred all over, its eyes weary, almost lifeless.
But rely by being glanced at by those dark golden vertical pupils, Xue Jing was frozen in place, unable to move, and even breathing seed like a luxury.
Only when he regained his senses and thought to rub his eyes, he raised his hand and was startled.
Are these… dragon claws?
His arm was unexpectedly covered with layers of scales, and his fingertips had grown sharp claws.
With a flash of realization, Xue Jing imdiately assud the stance of the Coiling Dragon Art, his entire being… the whole dragon stayed low on the ground.
He left the operation of the Coiling Dragon Art to his instincts, imrsing his whole heart in the sensation of 'having beco a dragon.'
...
He did not know how much ti had passed.
Xue Jing slowly opened his eyes, and for a mont, his gaze intensely shone, his pupils transforming into dark golden vertical pupils, but it was rely a fleeting mont before they returned to normal, almost like an illusion.
