Chapter 95: Degree of Dragon Transformation
"That's good."
Hearing his granddaughter's explanation, Dugu Bo nodded slowly.
"By the way, it looks like Tianlin ate some kind of herb and is absorbing it now." After finishing her own situation, Dugu Yan turned to Yu Tianlin. "Grandpa, look. He actually has a dragon horn on his head."
Dugu Bo had already noticed the dragon horn the moment he walked over, but his first concern had been his granddaughter. Now that she mentioned it, he looked again, and a strange light flickered in his eyes.
"This little guy, Yu Tianlin, has far too many secrets," Dugu Bo said. "This dragon horn looks like a Spirit Bone, but we can't be sure whether it's a head Spirit Bone or an external Spirit Bone."
"A Spirit Bone?" Dugu Yan blurted out in surprise. "I thought it was the dragon transformation from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"The dragon horns on his head can't be from dragon transformation," Dugu Bo explained. "The dragon transformation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul follows a set progression. In the early stage, only part of the body transforms. You don't reach full body transformation until level 60. At level 70, the wings can transform."
"After reaching level 80, one dragon horn appears, and at level 90, a second horn appears. That is the complete form of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul."
He pointed lightly. "Look. Tianlin has only reached dragon transformation in his arms. So those horns aren't from dragon transformation. They can only be a Spirit Bone."
Dugu Yan understood, but she still couldn't help asking, "Grandpa, I remember that a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Master can only do one arm of dragon transformation at level 30, right? Yu Tianheng was like that too. So how can Tianlin transform both arms at level 30?"
"Dragon transformation is a core secret of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. I don't fully understand its principles either." Dugu Bo shook his head, then narrowed his eyes. "It must be related to the Spirit Rings on his body that are clearly beyond their age limit."
As the grandfather and granddaughter spoke, another change happened to Yu Tianlin.
After regaining control of the Nine Dragons Lingzhi's energy, he no longer needed to refine it in tiny portions. He could accelerate the process directly. As the energy converted and was absorbed, Yu Tianlin's trouser legs began to swell.
That's right, a bipedal dragon transformation.
Fortunately, this was his first time transforming his legs, so the change was slow. His pants didn't explode apart. Instead, they gradually bulged outward as the transformation spread.
Every bit of it was clearly seen by the two standing nearby.
"Even his legs have transformed?" Dugu Bo's pupils shrank as he stared in disbelief. "How is that possible? This little guy is too exaggerated. He's only level 30 something."
Under normal circumstances, level 30 corresponded to single arm dragon transformation, level 40 to both arms, and level 50 to both legs.
Yu Tianlin reaching the double arm stage while still in the 30s was already shocking, but still barely acceptable. A peerless genius with a special opportunity could sometimes skip a stage.
But legs too?
That was the equivalent of skipping two full stages. Only a five ring Spirit King with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul should be capable of that, yet Yu Tianlin was only a three ring Spirit Elder.
Dugu Bo's shock faded quickly, replaced by heavy thought.
So what exactly did this kid eat? Wait. Where he's sitting, there used to be a clump of green grass, and a golden lingzhi nearby. Could that be what he took?
Having occupied the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well area for decades, Dugu Bo was familiar with every plant there. Just from Yu Tianlin's position, he could guess the answer.
Of course, even if Yu Tianlin's dragon transformation had reached that degree, it didn't mean he could rival a true Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit King. With the same Martial Soul and similar transformation, his Spirit Power and Spirit Rings were still far behind.
But if the opponent were an ordinary Spirit King with a mediocre Martial Soul and no ten thousand year Spirit Ring, then Yu Tianlin wouldn't be without a chance.
As his legs entered full dragon transformation, Yu Tianlin refined the remaining Nine Dragons Lingzhi energy at a much faster pace, absorbing it completely in a short time.
"Haa…"
He released a long breath, exited his meditative state, and immediately reached up to touch the top of his head, wanting to check what had happened to his ahoge. The moment his fingers brushed the dragon horn, he froze.
This… feels wrong.
It was thicker. Longer. Hard and sharp, nothing like the soft tuft of hair it used to be.
"Tianlin, you're done absorbing it too." Seeing him repeatedly touch the horn, Dugu Yan couldn't help speaking. "I didn't expect you to have a Spirit Bone too, and it's a dragon horn. It looks much stronger than my Mandala Serpent skull."
"Dragon horn…"
Yu Tianlin's heart jumped. He immediately took out a mirror from his Dragon Pattern Ring.
In the mirror, a dragon horn had indeed appeared where his ahoge used to be. It was entirely blue purple, around 20 centimeters long, not perfectly straight, but slightly curved backward.
So it's real. The dragon horn is the evolution of my ahoge.
Yu Tianlin reached the conclusion almost instantly.
The Nine Dragons Lingzhi energy, mixed with pure dragon power, had repeatedly slammed into his ahoge. During that process, the dragon power must have fused into it little by little, forcing it to evolve.
He was thrilled, but worry followed right behind. He was happy that after so many years, his ahoge had finally evolved into dragon horns, and he could already sense it would be much stronger. But he was also afraid the evolved horns might lose the ability to attract lightning and temper Spirit Rings. If that happened, it would be a net loss.
Just then, Dugu Bo asked, "Little fellow, what herb did you take? Was it that golden Ganoderma?"
"Yes. It's called Nine Dragons Lingzhi." Yu Tianlin nodded. "It suits Spirit Masters with dragon type Martial Souls. For me, it's a perfect match, so the harvest was huge."
As he spoke, Yu Tianlin tried to control the dragon horn and retract it.
Back when it was still an ahoge, it couldn't retract at all. But now that it had evolved into a true dragon horn, it should be possible.
Sure enough, under his control, the horn slowly withdrew, until it disappeared completely above his head.
