Mortal Mirror

Just as Li Ergou was feeling lost, he felt a slight gap open at the base of his tailbone. His eyes lit up as if he had thought of a great solution.

With a thought, countless major tendons gathered together. With a tearing sound, they burst through Li Ergou's clothes, and then a large tendon, over ten feet long and as thick as an arm, emerged from his rear.

This thing resembled a bald tail, yet it was incredibly flexible.

This was where Li Ergou could release his pent-up energy. The immense power formed by countless major tendons was unleashed, and his body immediately returned to normal. However, at this moment, he felt like a monster, having grown a tail.

It was also at this moment that he felt himself break through an extreme realm. The cultivation within his body soared, instantly reaching the peak of the second realm of martial arts. With just a little more, he felt he could break through, but that little bit was proving incredibly difficult.

Was this the 'extreme'? But he felt a sense of boundlessness, perhaps just the beginning of the extreme, he wondered.

He looked at his tail, feeling both amused and exasperated. He felt that the tail was lacking something, that it was too ugly.

With a thought, the bald tail began to change. The tip transformed into a three-edged shape, like a sharp, rhombic spearhead. Then, the light shifted upwards, and the smooth surface of the large tendon began to be covered with rows of barbs.

At that moment, the tail, which had seemed harmless just moments before, became terrifyingly grotesque.

Li Ergou exerted a little force, and the tail formed from large tendons swept across a nearby boulder. With a thunderous crash, the boulder shattered into countless pieces, flying in all directions.

Li Ergou's tail moved, instantly transforming into countless afterimages, striking the shattered stones. In the blink of an eye, all the shattered stones were pulverized into dust, scattering away.

Just then, the tail suddenly stretched out dozens of feet, and violently pierced through a giant tree in the distance. After another loud crash, a large hole was drilled through the tree, and with a slight tremor of the tail, the entire tree exploded, turning into a shower of fragments that fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Li Ergou was finally satisfied. This tail was incredibly powerful, comparable to his full-strength strike. It could also extend and retract, making it a supreme weapon.

Moreover, it could have an unexpected effect. If used for a sneak attack, most people would be unable to defend against it.

Imagine, the two are fighting fiercely, evenly matched, and suddenly he grows a tail. The power of this tail is even more domineering than his fists. How do you defend against that?

I ask you, can you defend against it? If you can't, this strike is the key to success.

If it were to attack his lower body, even a Grand Golden Immortal would regret it for life. At the thought of that scene, the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a sly smile.

Now that his divine skill was complete, Li Ergou was happy, but what bothered him was that he had become addicted to this path, the path of the extreme, which was truly unique.

However, this path was difficult. If he really wanted to cultivate it to the extreme, it would be very difficult.

He had spent so many resources to get just a tail. To become even more powerful, he would probably need endless resources.

The most important thing was that the quality of the material was too important. A small, high-level tendon had benefited him greatly.

Now, refining countless major tendons was only so-so. So, if you want to replace quality with quantity, it's just too difficult.

If it weren't for this outbreak of the demon disaster, he probably wouldn't be able to afford the resources to cultivate just the tendons alone.

So, the path of cultivation is such that unless you have unparalleled talent and extraordinary gifts, you need massive resources to fill the gaps. Without resources, cultivation? Keep dreaming.

All of Li Ergou's achievements along the way have been exchanged for countless resources. Although he can endure hardship, there are really many, many people who can endure hardship.

So, Li Ergou is very grateful, grateful that he has the bronze mirror.

With a thought, he retracted his tail and took out the dragon scale from the bronze mirror.

He could feel the powerful and violent force within the dragon scale.

This dragon scale was a supreme treasure. If he could refine it, it might be something that could save his life.

Dragon scales are no ordinary things. Refining this thing won't be easy.

Back then, it took him a lot of time to refine the turtle shell, and that was just a golden core stage turtle shell. Who knows what the cultivation level of this dragon scale is.

But he was not afraid. If one day wasn't enough, then two days. If two days weren't enough, then three days. He activated his profound skill and began to refine it continuously.

As he circulated his profound skill and continuously refined it, he suddenly felt a huge suction force coming from the dragon scale. The suction force was incredibly powerful, and it actually dragged his divine sense into the dragon scale.

Li Ergou was suddenly shocked and hurriedly pulled back.

However, the absolute power within the dragon scale was too terrifying. Li Ergou couldn't hold on and was still pulled in by the force.

Then, his divine sense seemed to have arrived in another world.

Here was a vast, starry river. This scene felt somewhat familiar to him. That's right, the Divine Demon Grotto Heaven. This place was very similar to the Divine Demon Grotto Heaven.

It was all an endless starry sky. He was very strange, thinking, could this be inside the dragon scale? This dragon scale is too terrifying. Just a scale, how could it be like this.

He became more and more curious and didn't know what was going on.

At this moment, countless energies gathered in the starry sky. In the blink of an eye, a golden dragon was condensed in the sky. The dragon was tens of thousands of feet long and exuded an incredibly terrifying aura that made people tremble all over.

Li Ergou looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, his eyes full of horror and disbelief. He didn't believe that there would be such a creature in the world.

His voice trembled slightly, "You... who are you."

The golden dragon did not speak, but its huge eyes were filled with unknown emotions. After a moment of silence, the dragon's voice resounded like a great bell.

At this moment, the entire world seemed to be trembling.

"Who am I? Too much time has passed, and even I don't know who I am. But I smell the sweet scent emanating from your body. Come, become part of my body."

Saying that, the giant dragon roared and bit towards Li Ergou.

"My goodness!" Li Ergou exclaimed. He didn't expect this guy to eat people right away. What a joke. According to legend, when this kind of divine object is born, it is bestowed with great opportunities. Could it be that the stories in those novels are all lies?

Li Ergou didn't dare to think too much and fled frantically.
