The Programmer Cultivator

Instantly, Zhang Deming’s serpentine body transformed. He changed from an ordinary python into a Demon Beast exuding a powerful aura, with a pair of Light Wings even appearing on his back.

’What’s this?’

’An aura close to that of a Duality Feathered Serpent’s descendant?’

Zhang Deming felt the change in his entire body’s aura and was completely astonished. ’In that case, doesn’t this mean that by learning the Dragon and Snake Transformation, as long as I have enough Techniques, I can become any kind of Snake Demon?’

With a mere thought, the Dragon Python Transformation Rune detached from the Flying Technique and intertwined with the Ruyi Jade Demon Blood-Sucking Vine.

This time, Zhang Deming’s entire appearance changed. He transformed from an ordinary patterned python into a jade-like Dragon Python. His form was fantastically beautiful, and he even had a peculiar flower pattern on his head.

’What’s this?’

’A mutated Jade Dragon Snake? Or a Poisonous Dragon Python?’

Sensing the changes in his body, Zhang Deming was pleasantly surprised. A moment later, with another thought, his entire body shrank in an instant, becoming a python as thick as a finger.

’Holy shit!’

’This Bloodline Technique is actually this malleable?’

’It was such a waste not to learn it sooner!’

’In this case, if I just learn a few more Basic Transformation Skills, I could totally pull off a pseudo-Seventy-Two Transformations. The core of it might be weak and a bit watery, but the appearance would be more than enough to bluff people.’

As he pondered, Zhang Deming made the Dragon and Snake Transformation Rune entwine with Sleeve Qiankun.

In an instant, a strange fluctuation spread out.

’HOLY SHIT!!!!!!’

...

At the Mountain Peak Cloud Pool, Yue Mengsheng’s eyes snapped open. Without a word, he shot straight up from his Cultivation Room, blasting a hole through the roof.

After bursting out, he saw Gan Zili and Guk Liancai also floating in the sky above two nearby courtyards, their faces filled with astonishment.

At that moment, a total of seven figures were floating above Spirit Nurturing Peak.

From Celestial Spirit Peak, the Resources Department’s Cyan Peak, the Law Enforcement Team’s Nine Rainbow Peak, the Miscellaneous Affairs Department’s White Rock Peak, and even Wanghui Peak which presided over punishment—from all across the Inner Sect Fifteen Peaks, major figures had all been alarmed. They floated in the sky, gazing toward Spirit Nurturing Peak with astonishment, searching for something.

The sight of dozens of these major figures filling the sky instantly alarmed the entire Inner Sect.

Throughout the entire Celestial Spirit Sect, countless Disciples stared at the sky, their faces blank with confusion. They had no idea what was happening.

Just then, from the back mountain of Celestial Spirit Peak, an aged figure also slowly ascended.

The dozens of figures floating in the surrounding sky all bowed to him in unison and said, ”Master Dang!”

The aged figure stood with his hands behind his back and gave a slight nod. Then, with a slight frown, he scanned the entire Sect with his senses. After a moment, he spoke, ”I wonder which fellow Daoist has come to my Celestial Spirit Sect to play such a joke on me?”

...

Zhang Deming had only been testing a Technique, but in a moment of divergent thinking, he had combined the Dragon and Snake Transformation Rune with Sleeve Qiankun.

The serpentine Rune and the Sleeve Qiankun Rune seemed to be a surprisingly good match, and they actually began to show signs of Fusion.

At that moment, a strange fluctuation spread out, and an ancient, desolate aura rose from Zhang Deming.

Lost in his divergent thoughts, Zhang Deming froze for a moment before he realized what was happening.

’Holy shit???!!!’

’An... An-Ancient... Hea-Heaven... Ancient Heaven-Devouring Python?!!!’

’Does it have to be this ridiculous!’

After a moment of shock, Zhang Deming finally sensed that the aura around him had already spread out, and his expression changed drastically.

Although the Arrays in his Cave Mansion were decent, they were mainly for defense. For concealing his aura, he had only inlaid two Two-Star ones, and they weren’t even the particularly powerful kind.

Therefore, the moment he sensed his aura spreading, Zhang Deming’s face fell.

He didn’t think he could just laugh it off and get away with it. After all, he was inside the Sect.

With no time to overthink, he quickly entered his Spirit Nurturing Space and focused his mind.

Rune Summoning: Spirit Nurturing Summoning Technique - Dragon Turtle!

A ball of light appeared and rapidly stretched, taking the form of Elder Huang.

Rune Summoning: Spirit Nurturing Summoning Technique - Feng Mingyou!

...

After Dang Xiangjun spoke, the surroundings remained silent. No one answered, and no sound was heard.

After a moment, Dang Xiangjun’s brow furrowed deeply. With a wave of his hand, a Jade Disc appeared in his palm.

Before he could reach out to activate the Jade Disc, countless points of light began to gather in the sky above Spirit Nurturing Peak, not far from Dang Xiangjun.

Dang Xiangjun paused, halting his actions. ”An Incarnation?” he said, surprised.

The points of light gathered quickly, and under the watchful eyes of the dozens of Three Talents experts and Dang Xiangjun, they slowly coalesced into the form of Elder Huang.

The Energy Body flickered a few times before finally solidifying into a physical form.

Once solidified, Elder Huang floated in the air. He surveyed his surroundings with a deadpan expression, looking at the Three Talents experts one by one. Inwardly, he was starting to panic.

His expression, however, was exceptionally calm, betraying no flaw. He stood with his hands behind his back as a gentle breeze rustled his crystalline hair and his ancient Daoist Robe, causing them to drift slightly.

Seeing Elder Huang transform from an Energy Body into a solid entity, Dang Xiangjun raised an eyebrow. ”Not an Outer Body Incarnation?” he asked in surprise. ”Could it be One Qi Transformed into the Three Pristine Ones?”

”You look unfamiliar, fellow Daoist. Since when did the Sanqing Temple of the Hongmeng Holy Land produce an expert such as yourself?”

Elder Huang smiled and said, ”I am Huang Cunshan, a simple Loose Cultivator with no connection to the Hongmeng Holy Land.”

Dang Xiangjun paused briefly. ”Oh, then I was being presumptuous,” he said. ”It’s mainly that your Incarnation Technique truly resembles One Qi Transformed into the Three Pristine Ones.”

Elder Huang just smiled and didn’t respond to that point.

Dang Xiangjun paused again, having failed to learn anything about the man’s origins. Frowning slightly, he asked, ”Then may I ask, fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of your visit today?”

Elder Huang hesitated for a moment before saying, ”This time, the fault is mine. I had heard an old friend’s Technique was about to break through to Tier Four, so I made a special trip to take a look and offer my congratulations.”

”I didn’t expect my little pet to see my old friend and get mischievous, running out on its own. It has disturbed all of you, and for that, I truly am at fault. I offer my apologies.”

Dang Xiangjun paused at his words. ’Tier Four? Congratulations? What the hell?’

’An Incarnation? No, in this solidified state, it can’t even be called an Incarnation anymore. A clone like this is already at the Peak of Three Talents. Doesn’t that mean his true Cultivation must be at the Four Symbols realm at the very least?’

’A Four Symbols Cultivator, and you’re telling me a Technique advancing to Tier Four is worth you making a special trip like this?’
