After swallowing the giant egg, Yin Zhang's strength increased dramatically.
First was his spirit power, which rose by three full levels, reaching level 46.
Then came the changes to his Charizard martial soul.
Yin Zhang's Charizard had already undergone significant evolution since its awakening at the age of six after absorbing multiple spirit rings, but this time, the transformation was even more profound.
Its dragon tail had grown noticeably longer, reaching nearly one and a half meters. With a gentle swing, it seemed to disturb the surrounding airflow itself, while the Life Fire at the tip burned fiercely, as though it could incinerate everything in its path.
A pair of dragon horns rose from its head like demonic horns—curved, deep in color, mysterious yet captivating. They looked hard and smooth, their surfaces gleaming with a metallic luster, as if coated in brilliant golden plating. Their streamlined, curved shape gave off an elegant yet dynamic aura. Upon closer inspection, faint raised patterns and tooth-like structures could be seen.
Its dragon fangs, sharp and jagged, glinted coldly, adding an overwhelming sense of ferocity.
When the dragon wings spread, they extended more than six meters, casting an enormous shadow over the ground that left one breathless. The wings were covered in tough, fiery-red scales that shimmered with a scarlet glow. As they flapped, a deep, majestic roar echoed through the air, thunderous and awe-inspiring.
As for the dragon claws, dragon scales, and other details—there was no need to list them one by one.
Yin Zhang looked at the mighty, domineering figure reflected in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction.
With a low shout of "Spirit Possession!", Charizard fused directly into his body. Dragon scales covered Yin Zhang from head to toe, transforming him into a true dragon-man.
He soared into the sky, gazing down at Heaven Dou City bathed in dusk, unable to suppress a surge of emotion.
With a powerful beat of the dragon wings on his back, he shot upward into the heavens.
This time, after consuming the dragon egg, Yin Zhang had gained an extremely powerful Bloodline Spirit Ability, along with several spirit abilities that had long been hidden deep within his martial soul.
Bloodline Spirit Ability:
Dragon God Transformation
Spirit Abilities:
Draco Meteor
Dragon Rush
Outrage
Among them, Dragon God Transformation allowed him to completely transform into a true dragon, with a body size equivalent to a spirit beast of the same cultivation level. After transforming, he would be no different from an actual spirit beast, with his physical attributes increasing severalfold.
Draco Meteor summoned falling meteors from the sky to bombard the enemy.
Dragon Rush unleashed terrifying killing intent before charging straight down to annihilate the target.
Outrage drastically increased attack power, boosting overall aggression by fifty percent.
Dragon God Transformation was essentially the inverse of a ferocious beast transforming into human form.
When a powerful spirit beast transformed into a human, its strength would be greatly suppressed.
But Yin Zhang's Dragon God Transformation allowed him to turn into a spirit beast instead—causing his overall combat power to soar.
Take Fire Dragon Evasion Kill as an example.
If its power before using Dragon God Transformation was considered level one, then after transforming, its power would reach level ten—purely as an analogy.
After all, was the same spirit ability truly comparable when used by a mountain-sized dragon versus a human-sized dragon-man?
When Yin Zhang descended back to the ground, Qiangu Yunying was visibly excited.
"Xiao Zhang, you look so handsome right now! Your martial soul is so much stronger than before—it's just like a real spirit beast!"
Yin Zhang nodded lightly.
"My gains this time were indeed enormous. Do you want to hear about them?"
Qiangu Yunying nodded eagerly.
"Yes! Tell me quickly!"
"Mm." Yin Zhang nodded and began explaining. "This time, I was fortunate enough to obtain four new spirit abilities. The first is Dragon God Transformation…"
"Bloodline Spirit Ability?" Qiangu Yunying asked in confusion. "What's that?"
Yin Zhang coughed lightly and explained,
"A Bloodline Spirit Ability is a spirit ability awakened after the concentration of my dragon bloodline increased. That's just the name I gave it."
"I'm also very curious what kind of dragon this egg originally belonged to. To give me such tremendous benefits… If my Charizard was already a top-tier martial soul before, then now, I feel it's infinitely close to Divine Rank."
Qiangu Yunying nodded thoughtfully.
"A Divine Rank martial soul… I've heard my father mention it before. It seems there are only two Divine Rank martial souls in this world—the Seraphim Martial Soul of Spirit Hall's High Priest, and the Sea God Martial Soul of the High Priest of Sea God Island."
"He also said that aside from being directly bestowed by a god, the only way to obtain a Divine Rank martial soul is to become a god yourself. When that happens, your martial soul evolves along with you."
"Legend says that both the Sea God and the Angel God achieved godhood themselves, and their martial souls became Divine Rank. They even passed down Divine Rank martial souls to others, which is how the Seraphim and Sea God martial souls have been inherited to this day."
Yin Zhang nodded gently, then said with excitement,
"Sister Yunying, do you remember what I told you before?"
"I said I have a way to drastically increase my strength in a short period of time. My martial soul will also change temporarily, becoming a Divine Rank martial soul, and even my spirit power will surge. It might even raise my cultivation straight to level 50!"
Qiangu Yunying was stunned for a moment, then became visibly excited.
"Then why didn't you use it when you fought Gu Rong at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan? If it's really like you said, you wouldn't have been pushed so hard!"
Yin Zhang smiled calmly.
"That kind of thing is a trump card among trump cards. I did think about using it back then to test its effects, but after some thought, I decided not to. If I couldn't fully control it, it would be better not to expose it—otherwise, I might become a target."
Qiangu Yunying nodded.
"Then when are you planning to show it to me?"
Yin Zhang smiled faintly.
"Tomorrow."
Just then, Dugu Bo—who had sensed the disturbance in the skies earlier—arrived at the courtyard.
Knock, knock.
A gentle knock sounded at the door. Yin Zhang turned his head.
"Who is it?"
"It's me—Dugu Bo!"
Dugu Bo laughed softly.
Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he was certain that the disturbance earlier had something to do with whatever Yin Zhang had obtained from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. After waiting for a while and sensing that Yin Zhang's condition was stable, he decided to come over.
After returning to Heaven Dou City, Dugu Bo had also received good news.
For some unknown reason, the medicine merchants of Heaven Dou City had begun helping him search for the missing herbs in his pill formulas—free of charge, without any conditions. This surprised him slightly, but he simply assumed it was respect shown toward him as a Titled Douluo and didn't think too deeply about it.
Hearing that it was Dugu Bo, Yin Zhang immediately went over and opened the door for him.
