2068 I close my eyes, I open my eyes, and I am a brand new Tyrannical Song
Song Shuhang was also helpless, and there was nothing that he could do about things not following the natural order.
After all, other practitioners did not have a stupid whale in their bodies, and they needed to use their spirit lake to nurture the dragon pearl’s energy projection to make it evolve into a pseudo-dragon-pearl. According to Senior Divine Dragon, this process should be quite lengthy and generally required one to close up.
And when cultivators closed up, they would usually do so for at least a month.
However, the dragon pearls in his small dantians were already close to the real thing, so he theoretically did not need to go through this step.
So, should I skip this step?
Or should I pretend to nurture my dragon pearls so as to look like I’m following Senior Divine Dragon’s instructions?
But even in that case, how long should I pretend to close up?
I can’t possibly keep acting for half a month. That would be too much of a waste of time.
Also, I don’t have the acting skills of the virtuous lamia, so I won’t be able to keep up the act for that long, either.
Screw it, I’ll just try my best.
What the Almighty Merchant said earlier was correct. Being solemn and ceremonial was very important. A solemn attitude could give people a sense of security.
Thinking of this, Song Shuhang’s consciousness dove into his small dantians and began studying the small dragon pearls inside his body.
He wanted to take a closer look at what was so special about these small dragon pearls and if there was any possibility of re-nurturing them.
The first one he looked at was the small dragon pearl that corresponded to Sixteen.
This small dragon pearl was born from Sixteen’s energy projection after the latter was altered by the fat whale golden core.
In terms of structure, it should be pretty close to the pseudo-dragon-pearl mentioned by Senior Divine Dragon.
“It feels no different from a real dragon pearl. The only difference is in their size.” Song Shuhang carefully wrapped the small dragon pearl with his mental energy.
The small dragon pearl grew very excited when it sensed his presence. When Song Shuhang’s mental energy came into contact with it, their energies merged without any hindrance.
Through his mental energy, he felt as if the small dragon pearl had transformed into a miniature Sixteen
Song Shuhang’s mental energy took the form of a hand and grabbed the miniature Sixteen’s hand. The mental energy, draconic energy, and the energy inside the small dantian seemed to have formed a cycle.
A self-sustaining system was created, and it seemed to be a part of an even larger cycle that included the original dantian and the other six small dantians.
At the same time, Song Shuhang’s seven Life Wheels came over of their own accord, gathering inside the first small dantian.
The seven Life Wheels began spinning, seemingly gearing up for a big battle.
Currently, Song Shuhang was trying to breach the Seventh Heavenly Layer among the Ten Heavenly Layers.
The Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Heavenly Layers that came after the first seven were reserved, respectively, for ordinary, advanced, and super VIP True Monarchs.
It was only with at least seven dragon patterns on one’s Golden Core that one would have the opportunity to breach these three layers.
An ordinary VIP True Monarch who had breached eight heavenly layers had the strength to escape from Seventh Stage Venerables who had ascended while having breached only six heavenly layers.
An advanced VIP True Monarch with nine heavenly layers breached would, when cultivating, face a level of difficulty equal to an ordinary, non-VIP True Monarch who had ascended to the Venerable Realm. Their combat power was also not much weaker, and they only lacked the signature moves of Seventh Stage Venerables. Moreover, only those with eight dragon patterns on their Golden Core could reach this level.
As for those who had breached ten heavenly layers, they were usually people with nine-dragon-patterned Golden Cores.
Sixth Stage True Monarchs who could disregard the difference in realm and slay a Venerable were all “Favored Children of Heaven” who had breached ten heavenly layers.
More than 99% of the Immortals in the universe were in this category when they were younger. Among the big shots that Song Shuhang knew, only the now-blacklisted Demon Emperor Hezhi had a lower number of dragon patterns when he was younger.

Inside the first small dantian, the seven Life Wheels were spinning frantically, waiting for Song Shuhang’s order.
After pondering for a while, Song Shuhang gave them the order to attack.
It was better to not waste time and strive to breach ten heavenly layers.
“Boom!” The seven Life Wheels frantically bombarded the barrier in the first small dantian.
With 7 against 1, it was seven times easier for Song Shuhang to break the barriers in his dantians compared to other people. Although he had seven more dantians, he should still be faster on average.
Additionally, Song Shuhang was supported by his light of virtue, his ghost spirit, his two sets of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure, and his three Sage Seals.
Coupled with the enhancement of his ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ and the help of the draconic energy of Sixteen’s dragon pearl, the seven Life Wheels were unprecedentedly powerful.
The barrier to the Seventh Heavenly Layer had no chance of resisting the onslaught of the seven Life Wheels.
It was as fragile as a piece of paper and was shredded to pieces.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was a man who was ruthless toward his enemies and even more ruthless toward himself. The way by which he dealt with the barrier in his own body was absolutely cruel and heartless.
The barrier to the Eighth Heavenly Layer did not last long, either, and was swiftly shredded by his seven Life Wheels.
When ordinary cultivators were attacking these barriers, they had to grind them down slowly. Moreover, it was a dignified 1v1 between their Life Wheel and the barriers of the Ten Heavenly Layers.
It was completely different from Song Shuhang, who used group attack tactics. Aside from being a 7 versus 1, there were various auxiliary helpers buffing the troops on his side.
If the barriers of the Ten Heavenly Layer were sentient, they definitely would have lodged a complaint to the Wielder of the Will for Tyrannical Song’s ruthlessness and cruelty.
Old Eighth was killed, and Old Ninth and Old Tenth soon followed in the footsteps of their younger brother.
While they might not have been born on the same day, month, and year, they, at least, died on the same day.
The way they died was also the same. The barriers of the Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Heavenly layers were all violently shredded to pieces.
When the Tenth Heavenly Layer was breached, Song Shuhang felt a brand-new feeling.
His entire being seemed to have risen to a new level.
However, this was not the end.
Song Shuhang’s mental energy reluctantly let go of the hand of the miniature Sixteen. Then, he rushed to the second small dantian.
This was where Senior White’s mirage dragon pearl was located.
“I shall push all seven small dantians to the Tenth Heavenly Layer today!” Song Shuhang was filled with fighting spirit.
This was the same as playing a game and wanting to end it in a single session.
It was very enjoyable.
Anyway, since the dragon pearl in the first small dantian had transformed into a miniature version of Sixteen, what would the mirage dragon pearl in the second small dantian transform into?
After Song Shuhang’s mental energy entered the second dantian, he used it to wrap the second small dragon pearl.
Just like the first dragon pearl, the mirage dragon pearl also welcomed Song Shuhang’s mental energy.
In Song Shuhang’s eyes, the mirage dragon pearl began transforming.
In the next moment, it turned into a gentle and beautiful woman from the Jiangnan area.
Song Shuhang: “…”
