Translator: 549690339

“Your Highness!”

The moment Feng Qing’an encountered something he could not understand, he thought of the ruler of the You Huang Ghost Country. Why burden himself to figure out the unknown when he could seek advice from someone who knew?

“What is it?”

“It’s about the power of incense and prayer…”

Feng Qing’an honestly shared his thoughts. He was attracted to the benefits of the prayer power but was reluctant to bear its drawbacks.

People are indeed greedy.

No one is an exception.

Every spirit has desires.

Though cultivators despise fame and fortune, considering gold and silver as dirt, and power as fleeting as a puff of cloud, do they truly have no desires?

What a joke!

Their desires transcend the mundane. They seek the Great Path, immortality, and divine power that can move mountains and reverse seas. It is a force that towers over all worldly interests.

“It is said that in ancient times, there was a great emperor who earned the prayer power of nine continents by benefiting the whole world. The emperor did not absorb the prayer power but was unwilling to abandon it. So, he used the prayer power from all his subjects to create a divine incarnation with immense power,” said Dragon Lord, after hearing Feng Qing’an’s aspirations.

“Could it be done like this?”

Feng Qing’an’s eyes immediately lit up on hearing it. This idea absolutely met his requirements. The ancient emperor was indeed adaptable. He had a remarkable talent, able to create such a mutually beneficial arcane method.

“There are no absolutes in this world. There are numerous arcane methods; only those unimaginable, none that do not exist. However…”

Dragon Lord intentionally dragged out the last word. Feng Qing’an began to feel nervous, realizing that while these arcane methods existed, Dragon Lord may not necessarily have them.

“However what?”

“The arcane method created by the Saint Emperor was not passed down. Even I do not possess it,” said the ruler of You Huang Ghost Country. Although Feng Qing’an had been prepared, he still felt disappointed to hear this. However, the knowledge of this secret method’s existence was enough to broaden his horizons.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s not available.”

Despite his words, Feng Qing’an still felt uncomfortable. Dragon Lord was just toying with him. He would’ve been better off not knowing this at all, sparing him from these thoughts.

“The arcane method created by that great emperor is little known. However, many great masters have emulated his method and created similar methods of divine incarnation. Coincidentally, my father mastered one such method and passed it onto me, although I have never actually used it.”

Feng Qing’an fell silent immediately.

“What? Don’t you want it now?”

A cold voice, full of ridicule, rang in Feng Qing’an’s mind.

“You wouldn’t give it to me?”

Feng Qing’an retorted without blinking. How could he allow this ruler to have his way so easily?

“If you need it, I will give it to you. But, you have to give me something in return!”

Dragon Lord’s voice was filled with playful teasing.

“What do you want me to give you?”

Feng Qing’an remained stubborn.

“That day, didn’t you promise to pay me a visit at my bedroom? Have you kept your promise?”

Upon hearing Dragon Lord’s sudden questioning, Feng Qing’an fell silent.

“Wasn’t I just busy? Besides, I don’t remember promising anything.”

Feng Qing’an’s face stiffened.

“Well, I have some other matters to attend to…”

“Wait. Give me the arcane method and I’ll come over right now.”

Feng Qing’an glanced at the golden scaled flood dragon, who was currently surrounded by tendrils of prayer power. He swallowed his pride, thinking it wasn’t the first time he’d compromised. How could a man face the world if he was so easily affected by people’s thoughts?

“I’m busy now and don’t have time. Wait until I’m free and invite you over. Then you can come to my bedroom.”

“…Fine.”

Feng Qing’an’s cheeks twitched, but he clenched his teeth and agreed.

“The arcane method I have is not as good as the one the great emperor had, but it’s more than enough for creating a divine incarnation. If you can find a better method in the future, you can replace it.”

As the voice faded, a complex arcane method had already entered Feng Qing’an’s mind. Even though it had a superficial read, he was able to comprehend its essence. This divine arcane text, each word of it was like a pearl of wisdom, a prime example of the simplistic nature of the Great Path.

However, the most challenging part of practicing this arcane method wasn’t understanding its essence but meeting the practice requirements. It required an immense amount of prayer power – a basic requirement for practicing arcane methods.

For the Golden Scaled Flood Dragon, this wasn’t a problem. When Feng Qing’an passed on this arcane method, which he had acquired from Dragon Lord at a certain cost, the little dragon was so excited that he couldn’t stop flying in the air.

Amid the thunderous roars and howling winds, the golden scaled flood dragon swirled in the sky. The pure prayer power that was originally tangled around it immediately fell off.

A strand of this translucent, spider-like prayer power fluttered in the sky. Seeing these, the golden scaled flood dragon gave a long cry and inhaled all the prayer power into its body.

While the golden-scaled flood dragon was flying in the clouds under Feng Qing’an’s eager gaze, it opened its mouth and a small golden shadow, resembling a loach, shot out.

Feng Qing’an looked at the shadow. It was a small golden-scaled dragon fish with sharp horns on its forehead. Its body was transparent like a beautiful jade carved artifact, emitting a divine light. It naturally possessed a sense of divinity and majesty.
