Lu Chengfeng's attitude was already quite reassuring.

"Well, he dares not approach the Hidden Dragon Pearl. If you wish to meditate and cultivate, just approach the Hidden Dragon Pearl and sit down; you'll be unharmed."

"Thank you for your guidance, Elder." Lu Chengfeng expressed his gratitude and then proceeded towards the Hidden Dragon Pearl.

Qi Yuan, who had just been knocked to the ground by the Dragon-Binding Rope, suddenly flipped upright, his face covered in blood, revealing fangs from his mouth. Sharp claws protruded from the flesh of his hands and feet, gleaming ominously, and looking terrifyingly vicious.

As Lu Chengfeng moved closer, even his forehead began to grow two dragon horns, and crimson dragon scales emerged on his face and skin.

After merely a dozen breaths, he transformed into a half-human, half-dragon monster, roaring loudly, fire and smoke billowing from his mouth and nostrils. His pupils turned crimson, filled with cold and violent rage, as he lunged directly at Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng wanted to test his skills, and in an instant, a strand of five-colored radiant light appeared, slicing through the air like a lightning strike.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

At the moment of collision, the sound of metal clashing resounded, with sparks flying from the scales.

Lu Chengfeng used only thirty percent of his power with that strike, yet failed to penetrate the opponent's defense, surprising him considerably.

Struck by the sword, Qi Yuan cried out in pain, but instantly transformed into a blaze, closing the distance to Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng did not dodge. The five-colored radiant light reversed, promptly tearing the fiery red dragon scales and slicing several bloody wounds on his opponent's body.

"Roar!"

Qi Yuan roared, suddenly spewing golden flames from his mouth and nostrils, like a lightning bolt of golden light, heading directly for Lu Chengfeng.

With a thought, Lu Chengfeng instantly used that strand of five-colored radiant light to form a shield like a peacock's spread tail, blocking in front of him, colliding with the golden fire.

Boom!

The abyss roared like thunder exploding; the golden fire was swept away by the five-colored radiant light, but Lu Chengfeng's light dimmed significantly, with considerable depletion of True Qi inside his body.

Seeing Qi Yuan relentlessly charging again, Lu Chengfeng tapped his toes, surrounded by the five-colored radiant light, swiftly disappeared from sight, moving closer to the Hidden Dragon Pearl.

Upon reaching the Hidden Dragon Pearl, Qi Yuan finally ceased his pursuit, distancing himself several meters away, furiously tearing at the stone platform with his claws, emitting horrifying howls.

After approximately another quarter of an hour, the anomaly on his body gradually dissipated, returning to human form. The bloody wounds inflicted by Lu Chengfeng began to heal at a visible rate.

"Such a bizarre and domineering secret technique!" Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but marvel at the sight.

Although his fight with Qi Yuan wasn't lengthy, he realized the terrifying nature of this person. If it were truly a life-and-death struggle, even with the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword, he would pay a steep price.

The ultimate outcome would be Qi Yuan's death and his severe injury.

Undoubtedly, despite his madness, Qi Yuan had the strength of a Half-Step Celestial Human, with an exceptionally strong physical body.

Steel muscles, impenetrable by swords or spears, unharmed by water or fire, and immensely powerful, along with vigorous vitality and extremely strong recovery power.

Moreover, the golden flames spewed from his mouth and nose were incredibly lethal. A typical Half-Step Celestial Human would perish upon contact; there was no escape.

Lu Chengfeng had used the five-colored sword light to resist, a technique realized after digesting Xun Shuijing's gift. However, contact with those golden flames drastically depleted half of his True Qi.

The potency of the golden flames was undeniable!

"Certainly a good training target!"

Lu Chengfeng thought silently, turned, bowed to the elder known as Withered Bamboo, then sat cross-legged in front of the Hidden Dragon Pearl, closing his eyes to meditate and cultivate.

Seeing this, Withered Bamboo silently nodded, then used the iron chain to ascend the abyss. Upon reaching the entrance, he found a spot to sit down, remaining there to safeguard Lu Chengfeng against those with malicious intent, preventing any possible accidents.

Although he doubted anyone would dare act so crazily, one must be cautious. If an accident did occur, regret would be inevitable.

Lu Chengfeng meditated for a long time, restoring his Essence, Qi, and Spirit to their peak, then stopped, afterward employing the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword, letting a strand of five-colored radiant light approach the Hidden Dragon Pearl.

In an instant, the five-colored radiant light was completely devoured by the pearl, but new fragmented characters appeared in Lu Chengfeng's mind. He didn't recognize them, yet upon touching them with his heart and mind, he instantly grasped their meaning.

"So that's the method. It's quite straightforward!"

Understanding how to refine this treasure gave Lu Chengfeng confidence, so he proceeded to send strand after strand of five-colored radiant light into the Hidden Dragon Pearl.

As time elapsed, his True Qi gradually depleted entirely, while the characters in his mind multiplied, though still incomplete.

So, Lu Chengfeng continued meditating to restore True Qi.

Repeating this cycle for three days,

On one particular day, after sending a strand of radiant light into the Hidden Dragon Pearl, it suddenly illuminated brightly, flames rolling, radiant light spreading, then it abruptly shrank to the size of a bowl.

Meanwhile, a scripture titled "Void Dragon-Binding Rope" appeared in Lu Chengfeng's mind.
