Chapter Sixteen: The Carefree Soul's Cultivation of the Tao, The True Secret Manual of Ten Thousand Bloods

  Longgu, Zulong Mountain.

  Only saw the sky filled with giant dragons, and the ground was packed with monsters, quietly watching the commotion in front of them.

  "Third Princess, what are you doing? His Majesty has already agreed to hold a grand ceremony for us, I won't let you touch him, I won't let you touch any other man." Ao Han's face turned bright red with shame as he roared at Ao Ling.

  "Hmph, don't be delusional, thinking I don't know that you just want to use my bloodline to purify your Golden Dragon body, so that your Heavenly Dragon Cultivation Technique can advance. Brother Xiao Yao was right, you're all a bunch of arrogant bullies who take pleasure in bullying the weak. Brother Xiao Yao, let's go! The two sisters, let's leave together!" Ao Ling's slightly immature face was filled with determination.

  "Are you willing to leave the Dragon Clan for this carefree demon, Third Princess?" Ao Han asked.

  "Right! I don't want to stay here either." Ao Ling said.

  "Halt, Third Princess! Don't hurt the hearts of your own kin for the sake of outsiders. His Majesty regards you as a precious gem in his palm; don't disappoint the Emperor's nurturing grace for the sake of outsiders." The elders also chimed in with their advice.

  However, Ao Ling firmly supported Huang Xiaoyao and moved forward. At this time, Ao Han and the elders finally couldn't bear it, flew down from the sky, and were about to capture Huang Xiaoyao and Ao Ling.

  At this moment, a strange change occurred, and only then did Huang Xiaoyao's body surge with a mysterious aura, breaking free from Ao Ling's hand, slowly floating up.

  At this moment, the aura on his body was not strong, but he seemed like a small boat, floating unsteadily in the midst of a stormy atmosphere. Ao Han's massive hand was about to grab him, when Huang Xiaoyou's body twisted, like a slippery loach, and slipped out of control.

  "Enlightenment! He's on the verge of enlightenment, hurry up and interrupt him, we absolutely can't let him achieve it. If he succeeds in his enlightenment, who knows how powerful he'll become." Ao Qian exclaimed, having witnessed the scene of Zu Long achieving enlightenment before.

  The giant dragons all used their killer moves, various yuanqi flying through the air, and various lingbao calling out to Huang Xiaoyou's body. However, Huang Xiaoyou's physical form no longer existed in this world, so no matter how powerful their techniques were, they couldn't even touch a single hair on his head.

  It is indeed the case that no matter how hard the wind blows or the rain pounds, I remain unmoved! This is exactly what Huang Xiaoyou looks like.

  Not to mention what happened outside, what mysterious events did Huang Xiaoyao go through that changed him so much? This has to start from when Huang Xiaoyao was oppressed by Long Wei.

  Huang Xiaoyao transformed into the body of Taigu Giant Turtle, with a majestic momentum to resist the dragon's power of Zu Long. However, Huang Xiaoyao had only a strong physical body, but his soul was extremely weak, and even the Immortal Path was not yet formed, how could he withstand the incredibly powerful Zu Long?

  Just as he was being oppressed by the Ancestral Dragon, the dragon's power transformed into the body of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon and entered his spiritual sea. It roared, ready to devour Huang Xiaoyou's soul, devour his divine wisdom, devour his willpower, and even burst through Huang Xiaoyou's spiritual sea.

  Shattered, the weak little soul. At this moment, Huang Xiaoyao's thoughts were all gone, his eyes dimmed, and at this moment, he felt that perhaps his journey through time had come to an end.

  At this moment, he remembered the nest of his previous life, remembered the dreams when he first crossed over, remembered the journey he had traveled, remembered the majesty of transforming into a five-clawed golden dragon to defy the heavenly tribulation, and remembered the awe-inspiring power of transforming into an ancient giant turtle.

  "Is that all the 'Ten Thousand Blood Secrets' has to offer? Can I only transform into various creatures and control their divine abilities? What's the point of that? Each creature has its own advantages, why should I give up my true form for something inferior? As long as I cultivate my Swallowing Heaven Mouse body well, as long as I master the Great Devouring Technique and the Great Blood Spirit Technique, as long as I perfect my Broken Law Divine Eyes, all I need to do is work hard at cultivating, then transcend the tribulation, and become a True Immortal, a Golden Immortal, a Mahayana Golden Immortal."

  Why must I transform into various creatures, with a weak and small soul controlling the body of the Great Luo Golden Immortal?

  No need!

  At this moment, Huang Xiaoyao's will was shattered, he denied his way, denied the "Million Blood Secret Classic" he created, denied the cultivation of hundreds of yuan gatherings, and even denied himself.

  At this moment, his weak and small soul was shattered, his soul that had been tempered through several thunder tribulations was shattered.

  "Hahaha, so this is the path I've been cultivating? Thinking I can roam freely without bounds, thinking I can be invincible, thinking I can become a great power in the world, and even dare to surpass Pangu, and think that with the advantage of being a traverser, I can quickly become stronger. Hahaha, how naive! The vast and boundless Great Dao, countless great powers, what makes you think you can surpass them? Don't be naive, sleep, it's all over. The carefree ambition from back then was just dog shit." Huang Xiaoyao's residual consciousness shouted out.

  However, just as he decided to give up, his spiritual sea suddenly churned up two whirlpools, one black and one red. In the sky above, a pair of green eyes shone brightly with dazzling green light, and a series of symbols flashed by, analyzing the Chaos Dragon.

  Two whirlpools constantly rotated, constantly devouring the chaotic giant dragon, while a great Dao constantly flowed through Huang Xiaoyou's remaining consciousness.

  "Overbearing, dragon's might, willpower, this is the will of a cultivator. The heart and soul of a cultivator, the Ancestral Dragon Emperor's dominance over the world, viewing oneself as heaven, while all living beings in the vast expanse are his subjects. He wants to dominate the world, taking the vast expanse as his country, fulfilling his dream of the Emperor's Way. This is his will. So what is my will? Is it controlling the clouds and rain when I transform into the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, or holding up the sky and standing on the earth when I transform into the Ancient Giant Turtle? Or perhaps swallowing the heavens and earth like the Swallowing Heaven Mouse?"

  No! None of those, I am not the Swallowing Heaven Mouse, nor the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, and even less the Ancient Giant Turtle. I am me, that carefree person who aspires to be strong, that person who dares to defy heavenly tribulations and creates the unparalleled masterpiece "The Secret Manual of Ten Thousand Bloods", that fearless and unrestrained person who acts on a whim.

  My will is to be free and easy, whether I transform into a five-clawed golden dragon, or an ancient giant turtle, or the ancestor of the qilin. No matter what form I take, I must maintain my own free and easy heart. Only if I do not perish, any power can be the boat that reaches the other shore of freedom and ease.

  "Myself undestroyed, carefree soul, reunite!"

  Huang Xiaoyao finally had a great awakening and realized his ultimate truth.

  What is the Way? It's the sum of power, whether it's the Great Devouring Technique or the Great Bloodline Technique, or even the Heaven-Defying momentum of the Ancient Giant Turtle, all are contained within Huang Xiaoyou's Carefree Way.

  Whoa! The Soul Ocean of Huang Xiaoyou blew a gust of wind, and the originally fragmented soul particles slowly gathered together to form Huang Xiaoyou's soul. However, the aura of Huang Xiaoyou's soul was different now, as if it contained an unbridled atmosphere, as if it changed endlessly - one moment it was dragon-shaped, another moment it was a giant turtle, another moment it was a gigantic rat that swallowed the sky, and another moment it transformed into a cloud.

  At this moment, no one knows what Huang Xiaoyao's true form is.

  This is the soul of carefree! The foundation of Huang Xiaoyou's Tao, his "Million Blood Secret Classic" constantly reorganizes itself, the characters flashing and changing in an instant, finally a brand new "Million Blood Secret Classic" appears within Huang Xiaoyou's soul, taking on the form of a book, as if continuously absorbing laws, one page, two pages, three pages, four pages.

  The more divine principles Huang Xiaoyao understood, the more pages were added. It can be said that this book is no longer just a skill manual, but an embodiment of Huang Xiaoyao's Dao.

  Haha, the cultivation process of "The Secret Book of Ten Thousand Blood" has not changed much, still using the blood of living beings to enlighten the way, transforming into various creatures. However, its essence has changed, and the carefree soul no longer follows the path of immortals, but instead takes the path of the law. Every time it transforms into a creature from the vast wilderness, it allows the carefree soul to control a divine ability of that creature, and the carefree soul continues to evolve.

  In short, the Fa Dao is the way of the law, with the purpose of perfecting the law, allowing the soul to continuously evolve, and under the influence of the Great Blood Technique, the flesh body is also constantly being transformed, and the bloodline is continuously evolving.

  Haha, now "The Secret of Ten Thousand Bloods" is complete, and I can cultivate both soul and body!

  Huang Xiaoyou's mind was constantly changing, and unconsciously, his physical body was also changing with his enlightenment, as if it contained infinite magical powers.

  "Hurry up and set up the Tianlong Formation, his breath is getting stronger and stronger, as if he can control even more power." Ao Qian said.

  All that can be seen is countless people dealing with the yellow little demon in the sky, constantly changing its trajectory. They are also changing their formation, forming a mysterious large array to surround the yellow little demon, continuously shrinking the space, leaving the yellow little demon nowhere to hide.

  At this moment, Huang Xiaoyao's originally dull eyes suddenly became spirited, and a green light shot out, dazzlingly brilliant.

  "Hmph, earth-shattering dog! The carefree way, the giant turtle holds up the sky!" Huang Xiaoyao's two hands pushed upwards, and the narrow space suddenly shattered. Countless human shadows were thrown out, spewing out countless fresh blood in mid-air.

  "Ah! How can you be so powerful?! I don't believe it, you're dead, anyone who dares to provoke the Dragon Clan should die!" The White Dragon Ao Shan roared like a madman.

  "Hmph! Arrogant dragon clan, then let you see my great way, the carefree way, the Cloud Turning Rain Technique!" A small black cloud floated out from Huang Xiaoyou's hand with a squeeze.

  "Haha, this is also called the art of reversing the clouds and rain, it's too ridiculous! The art of reversing the clouds and rain is actually our dragon clan's great way. Look at my wild wind and storm!" Ao Shanshan flew up into the sky, transformed into a white dragon body, and spat out a beam of light from his big mouth. Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind and rain attacked Huang Xiaoyao.

  "Is that so?" The black cloud in Huang Xiaoyao's hand flew out, instantly transforming into a vast expanse of dark clouds, and a powerful aura pressed down on the dragon clan, leaving them breathless.

  "Ah!" A cry of surprise rang out.

  Huang Xiaoyao took a look and found that it was Ao Ze who had caught You Feng, and a surge of anger suddenly rose up in his heart.

  "You're going to die!" Huang Xiaoyao's eyes widened, a green light flashed, and a red vortex suddenly tore through the air, piercing Ao Ze's brow.

  "Ah!" Ao Ze let out a miserable cry, and his body withered away at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only skin wrapped around bones.

  "Ah! Devilish power!" The dragon tribe people retreated in a flurry, none of them daring to approach the several girls led by You Huan.

  "Xiao Yao Demon, don't be too arrogant. This is the Dragon Clan's Dragon Valley, and we have several powerful Supreme Elders who are currently in seclusion, cultivating. They are Dragon Clan powerhouses who were born at the same time as our Ancestor Dragon." Ao Shan said with a hint of urgency.

  "Hmph, is it me being arrogant or you dragon clan being arrogant? I won't offend you if you don't offend me. The great calamity is approaching, and yet your dragon clan still doesn't know to restrain yourselves. The disaster of extinction is near!" Huang Xiaoyao said disdainfully.

  "Nonsense, our Ancestral Dragon Emperor is cultivating the Imperial Way of the Hegemon, destined to rule over the world. When the time comes, even the Primordial Chaos will be renamed as the Heavenly Dragon Nation, and you too, will have to submit!" Ao Shandao said, while other dragon clans also had this same matter-of-course expression.

  "I'm too lazy to bother with you! Youming, Artemis, let's go." Huang Xiaoyou said, then looked at Ao Ling and said, "Ling'er, are you coming with us or staying with the Dragon Clan?"

  "I'll follow Xiao Yao Gege." Ao Ling lowered his head, as if embarrassed, as if deeply attracted to Huang Xiaoyao's strength, and also as if his face was red from the boldness earlier.

  "Hey, where did the bold spirit go just now? Hehe, still so shy, let's go, from now on we'll roam the world." said Huang Xiaoyao.

  In fact, when he realized the truth, he also knew what was happening outside. He was moved by Ao Ling's sincerity and thought that a weak little girl dared to take Huang Xiaoyou away under the gaze of all the dragon clan, which can be imagined how much courage it took.

  "Hmm!" Several girls chimed in unison.

  A cloud of several tens of feet in size rose from under Huang Xiaoyao's feet, carrying a few women into the air, while the dragon clan could only watch helplessly as they left, their courage already broken by Huang Xiaoyao's formidable power.

  At this moment, a more powerful aura rose from the Ancestral Dragon Mountain, as if a sleeping giant dragon had awakened, its momentum causing heaven and earth to shake, making all the dragons kneel on the ground.

  "Congratulations to Emperor Zu Long for his great achievement, from now on he will reign supreme over the world, forever and ever, eternal and immortal!"

  Boom! A majestic figure appeared in the air.
