Chapter 8: Physical Transformation

  At the foot of Tianxian Peak, above the lush undergrowth, several clusters of dark clouds gathered together, with flashes of lightning illuminating them from time to time.

  Under the thick, dark clouds that were pressing down on each other, a robust, blood-red column of light pierced through the clouds and poured directly onto the ground in the midst of the forest. And within this blood-red column of light stood a stark-naked young man as well as a floating canine demon beast.

  Wow!

  Staring blankly at the two innate totems in his sea of consciousness, they transcended the sea and materialized into real shadows. Ling Qingyan only felt his breathing almost come to a halt, as the pain from all over his body continued to intensify.

  After the Blood Python Totem emerged from the Sea of Consciousness, it seemed to have locked onto the black cold aura that was suppressing Ling Qingwan's surroundings. Its entire long body twisted and turned, its tail sweeping through the air and stirring up several gusts of wind. A pair of blood-red pupils grew even more bloodshot at this moment!

  Watching the giant python's mouth open wide towards him, Ling Qingyan felt a chill run down his spine as he stared at its sharp teeth, "It, it wants to...?!"

  Ling Qingyan was now staring at the giant mouth of the Blood Python Totem in horror, and just as it was about to reach his head, a thick bloody aura suddenly burst out from its mouth, instantly enveloping Ling Qingyan's entire body in black cold light.

  Hah! Hah!

  The bloody aura suddenly touched the black cold awn, and a piercing sound was abruptly transmitted. Ling Qingyan could clearly feel that the bloody aura was corroding the black cold awn like sulfuric acid in his previous life. As he watched the black cold awn shrink under the dense bloody aura's invasion, a gleam of delight also flashed across Ling Qingyan's eyes.

  Finally can escape! Finally don't have to suffer anymore!

  "This Blood Evil aura seems to have changed!"

  Ling Qingyan clearly saw that the black cold aura surrounding him was being enveloped by a bloody evil energy, its color gradually deepening and transforming into a dark red hue. As time slowly passed, the black cold aura around Ling Qingyan would soon be completely eroded away...

  "Finally!"

  Feeling the refreshing sensation all over his body, Ling Qingyan's face involuntarily hung a smile. But in the blink of an eye, Ling Qingyan's complexion suddenly changed drastically, only because at this time the dark bloody aura around him had completely eroded the black cold light and directly enveloped his body. In an instant, piercing pain filled Ling Qingyan's entire body!

  "Ah——"

  Even if Ling Qingyan's mental endurance was abnormal, at this time he also let out a desperate scream, but the more intense pain seemed to be endless. Ling Qingyan's naked body struggled for a few moments before he fainted.

  The eerie, unconscious Ling Qingyan did not fall to the ground, but was controlled by a nearly black Blood Evil energy, standing still. At the same time, as Ling Qingyan's naked body continued to tremble, the Blood Evil energy began to gradually decrease... It seemed that this Blood Evil energy was about to merge into Ling Qingyan's body!

  At the same time, Ling Qingyan's other totem, the snow-white Qilin, also emitted a white mist between its two deer-like horns, which dispersed and surrounded Xiao Cangao, then suddenly contracted at an extremely fast speed, completely wrapping Xiao Cangao inside!

  Unlike Ling Qing's dizziness, Xia Cang Ao seemed to be extremely comfortable all over his body, enjoying the baptism of an unknown white mist...

  Time slowly passed by, and both humans and beasts were fully absorbing the different mists around them.

  Although shrouded in dark clouds, unable to discern the color of the sky, yet this night has already fallen, and a night's time slowly passes...

  At the edge of the sky, the second day's pale dawn arrived.

  The white mist surrounding Xiao Cangyuan had been completely absorbed, and then Xiao Cangyuan also slowly fell to the ground. When Xiao Cangyuan's entire body appeared through the gloomy light, it was very different from yesterday.

  At this time, the small Tibetan Mastiff was no longer completely black in color. Only the hair on its little head, the hair on its limbs and paws, as well as the hair at the end of its tail had all turned completely white. As for the rest of its body, there wasn't much change from yesterday.

  At this moment, the little Tibetan Mastiff seemed to have also sensed its own change, and it let out a low, excited cry. After seeming to be overjoyed for a while, the little Tibetan Mastiff was also staring intently at Ling Qingyan, who was still suspended in mid-air absorbing the remaining Blood Fiend's aura, with a hint of concern between its pair of pupils.

  That's right, it's concerning!

  An hour passed, and the bloody aura around Ling Qingyan had been completely absorbed by him. His naked body was fully revealed, unlike his previously delicate and pale skin. Ling Qingyan's skin now had a dark bronze color, like it had been rubbed with oil, and it shone brightly in the dim light. Moreover, his muscles, which were not very prominent before, were now fully developed.

  What a big change!

  This change can be said to be a complete rebirth! If the previous Ling Qingyan was like a rich young master, then at this time, he is even more like a robust warrior who has been traveling through the Chongwu continent for many years! That originally white and handsome face, now set off by his darkened copper-colored skin, appears to be so majestic and awe-inspiring.

  "Boom!"

  After fully absorbing the Blood Evil Energy, Ling Qing's naked body also lost its support and fell directly to the ground.

  "Waaaah——"

  Jing Qingyan completely absorbed the bloody aura, but Xiao Cangao suddenly raised its head and howled again. In the midst of Xiao Cangao's howling, the dark clouds that had gathered above the forest also gradually dispersed, as if they had never appeared at all.

  At this time, Ling Qingyan and Xiao Cangao, who were under the forest, also restored the brightness that should have been in the morning.

  ………

  "Hmm..."

  Feeling the scorching heat on his cheeks, Ling Qingyan slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the small Tibetan mastiff's long tongue licking his cheek, and Ling Qingyan suddenly startled, following the momentum to turn around and stand up. Feeling the coolness around his body, Ling Qingyan subconsciously looked down and found that his bronze-colored cheeks also had a faint flush.

  Wow!

  A purple long gown appeared on Ling Qingyan's left hand, and Ling Qingyan's hands changed rapidly like lightning for several times, and the purple long gown was already worn on his body. After putting on the clothes, Ling Qingyan noticed the change in the skin of his hands, but there was no surprise in his eyes.

  Three or two steps brought him directly to the side of a small tree, where Ling Qingyan stretched out his hands and grabbed the trunk as thick as his calf. The back of his hands suddenly bulged with blue veins, and Ling Qingyan exerted force in an instant ——

  "Crack!"

  Frighteningly, Ling Qingwan broke the tree trunk as thick as a small leg with just his arm strength without using his true power!

  Looking at his own arms, now a dark bronze color, Ling Qingyan's face held a hint of a smile. "The ancient texts were indeed correct... The 'Blood Contract' of the ancient demonic beasts, once signed with a human, would grant that human's body a complete transformation! His body would possess no less power than that of the demonic beast!"
