Chapter 991: Chapter 59: Fire Chi Transformation and Pig Transformation Magic, Third Year of Da Zhi!
The next famous is the [Golden Body Institute] of the Mrquis Transformation Sect, which uses the Hou Transformation Technique to forge the Martial Body Golden Body. They have developed the [Dragon Blood Golden Body], ranking as one of the top martial arts golden bodies.
Other holy lands of various occupations have similar achievements.
In short, the Seventy-two Taoist Schools have one motto: first outdo their peers, then outdo non-peers!
Of course, at most they can only achieve top-level results; ultimate skills or ultimate levels cannot be achieved.
But it is more than enough for attracting students and funding.
"Hey, the Saint Heir is here!"
"Quick, junior brother, go block the road and bring out the honor guard to play the drums and gongs."
Just as they got off the Flying Boat, they heard Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing teasing them.
Would Zhao Xing care about their teasing? He immediately retorted: "How bold, how come the two elders didn’t arrange fragrant beauties in a carriage! Not even a welcome banner, truly disrespectful!"
"Someone, drag them down and behead them!"
Who else was around except them?
But King Heavenly Destiny joined in the fun, immediately jumping off the Flying Boat, taking out the Command Arrow with a stern face: "As you command!"
Seeing King Heavenly Destiny appear, Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing were instantly bewildered.
A First-Rank Official! Are you serious?
The two of them quickly put away their playful expressions and saluted King Heavenly Destiny, "Greetings, King Heavenly Destiny, we didn’t know you were here, we apologize for our rudeness."
King Heavenly Destiny waved his hand cheerfully: "I’m just here as an escort, no need for formalities, pretend I’m not here."
Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing had interacted with King Heavenly Destiny before.
Anyway, King Heavenly Destiny could tease them, but they dared not joke with him.
So they immediately saluted solemnly and led Zhao Xing and King Heavenly Destiny towards the Mrquis Transformation Institute.
"Is Ling Tianchen present in the institute?" King Heavenly Destiny asked.
"The Dean is busy with official business and will return in a day." Hu Yang replied.
"Alright, then let’s go and rest." King Heavenly Destiny said.
Zhao Xing’s training plan, neither Hu Yang nor Zhang Tianxing had a say in it.
Any arrangements are best discussed with Ling Tianchen.
"Yes."
...
The style of the Mrquis Transformation Institute is completely different from that of the Minister of Agriculture Institute.
The other branches are filled with flowers, grass, and trees.
The Mrquis Transformation Institute, however, is everywhere with beasts, while humans are seldom seen.
"Most are not real beasts, but transformations using the Hou Transformation Technique."
"The Hou Transformation Technique is probably most commonly seen here." Zhao Xing looked at the beasts roaming around.
Here, people felt somewhat out of place.
King Heavenly Destiny frowned a little: "Why does it feel like the Creation Dao College here?"
After spending a day, King Heavenly Destiny and Zhao Xing looked around, and their feelings were completely different.
Zhao Xing was somewhat excited because he saw many changes.
To him, this was spell, knowledge!
The prosperity of the Hou Transformation Technique, truly worthy of being a Holy Land!
However, what King Heavenly Destiny saw was danger.
He summoned Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing: "Does your Mrquis Transformation Institute have any undeclared dangerous cultivation or research plans?"
Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing exchanged a glance, then shook their heads: "No."
"Be careful not to create any monsters." King Heavenly Destiny warned, then went back into the room.
Zhao Xing knew he was ignoring things because the Mrquis Transformation Sect often skirted the edge of legality with their cultivation and research.
Even if not illegal, people with higher morals wouldn’t condone it.
Of course, that was not the reason for King Heavenly Destiny.
He was reminded of those old perverts at the Creation Dao College, worrying about potential loss of control.
A day after Zhao Xing’s arrival, Ling Tianchen appeared as promised.
A Chi Wen descended from the sky and turned into a person upon landing.
"Greetings, Dean." Zhao Xing saluted.
It is rumored that Chi Wen is one of the nine offspring of the True Dragon, with a dragon’s head and a fish’s body, known for peering around at dangerous places, fond of swallowing fire, and capable of spewing waves and summoning rain.
The Chi Wen that Ling Tianchen transformed into could easily swallow the Ruishui River; he was the one who led people to slay the Purple Feather King and the King Xuanpin, seizing the Ruishui passage.
"Zhao Xing, you have arrived." Ling Tianchen showed a slight smile.
His cheekbones were prominent, and his skeleton differed from ordinary people, with an overwhelming life force.
His aura was similar to Shi Wenxuan’s when he cast the Dragon Curse, but Ling Tianchen inherently possessed this imposing air, as if his life’s essence was innately superior to others.
"King Heavenly Destiny." Ling Tianchen merely nodded faintly upon seeing King Heavenly Destiny.
Then he looked back at Zhao Xing:
"Zhao Xing, you want to cultivate the Hou Transformation Technique, just as I have time to teach you."
"Follow me."
"Wait." King Heavenly Destiny said, "Dean Ling, should we discuss this first."
"Discuss?" Ling Tianchen tilted his head slightly, his pupils light purple, causing a sense of pressure even in a normal tone: "Discuss what."
"Zhao Xing’s training plan." King Heavenly Destiny said.
"No need to discuss, I’ve already decided."
King Heavenly Destiny clasped his hands: "Then please let me join and observe."
"No." Ling Tianchen shook his head. "It’s confidential."
King Heavenly Destiny’s eyes narrowed slightly: "Zhao Xing’s cultivation is also confidential; how can I not be informed of such an important matter?"
"I said no."
King Heavenly Destiny’s temper flared: "What if I insist on seeing it!"
Ling Tianchen’s gaze turned cold, letting out a tiger-wolf-like growl from his throat: "Heavenly Destiny, is the Royal Family intending to interfere in the institute’s internal inheritance?"
"Even the Grand Ancestor never interfered; who do you think you are?!"
It seemed like a storm was brewing between the two.
Hu Yang and Zhang Tianxing were no longer playful and didn’t dare to breathe.
Zhao Xing also felt the pressure, as the Mrquis Transformation Sect was the strongest branch of the Heavenly Time Sect, and Dean Ling Tianchen’s status was no less than that of King Heavenly Destiny.
He might even surpass King Heavenly Destiny.
Because there were so many in the royal family that even First-Rank Officials could be numerous.
