nJust as Song Shuhang and the others were discussing, the flames of virtue burning on Shuhang’s body underwent another change. The light of virtue—which was previously shrinking bit by bit—inflated again, starting to burn even more violently. The temperature also increased until it reached the same temperature as real flames.
nAfterward, the flames curled up and wrapped around Song Shuhang’s body like a long dragon.
n“Hot,” Song Shuhang blurted out.
n“It seems that the qualitative change of the light of virtue is about to come to an end,” Su Clan’s Sixteen said. At the same time, she quietly took a step back so as to avoid getting affected by the light of virtue, which was now burning more and more fervently.
n“After so many changes… the evolution process of the light of virtue is finally about to come to an end. Now then, does everyone have to go through all this trouble when their light of virtue undergoes a qualitative change?” Song Shuhang asked.
nAt this time, he felt as if someone had thrown him into a steamer. Sweat was already streaming down his face when he said the sentence above.
n“I have no idea. There is no one in our Su Clan that cultivates the light of virtue,” Su Clan’s Sixteen said.
nYe Si wasn’t really affected by this degree of heat. Therefore, she raised her head and looked on top of Song Shuhang’s head. “I see something. From the looks of it, the light of virtue is about to condense into the form a huge dragon.” Two small claws had already become visible amidst the curled up light of virtue. Therefore, the shape it was going to assume in the end was very likely that of a dragon.
nSong Shuhang stuck out his tongue like a dog due to the heat, and said, “It seems it’s transforming into something very cool.”
nIf the light of virtue really ended up shrouding his body like a dragon, it was going to look rather cool!
nHe would have a golden dragon protecting his body.
nIf Song Shuhang used the body protecting saber qi of the ❮Inverted Scale Saber Technique❯ on top of that, it would seem as though two dragons were protecting him when he was fighting others. The level of the special effects would be off the charts!
nEarlier, when the light of virtue just started to burn up, it was giving signs of assuming the shape of a person. At that time, Song Shuhang got somewhat worried, afraid that the light of virtue would end up taking the shape of something strange.
n“Eh? Strange. Now, it seems as if the spiraling flames are about to the take the shape of a person…” Su Clan’s Sixteen said suddenly.
nSong Shuhang immediately turned his head around and looked up.
nHe saw that the light of virtue, which was previously wrapping around his body like a dragon, had now started to assume the shape of a person on the top of his head. However, only the part above the waist of this person was visible.
nHow could that be?
nIs it possible that when the thought of the light of virtue assuming the shape of a person flashed through my mind, the light of virtue followed my will and really started to assume the shape of a person?
nThere is really such a possibility. After all, the light of virtue is currently taking shape, and it might have been influenced by my will.
nAfter thinking up to this point, Song Shuhang closed his eyes and started to mutter, “Dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon…”
nAt the same time, he started to visualize the picture of a huge dragon in his mind.
nDeer-like horns, camel-like head, rabbit-like eyes, snake-like neck, clam-like belly, fish-like scales, hawk-like claws, cat-like palms, and cow-like ears…
nAfter pondering for a moment, Song Shuhang’s head was full of pictures of dragons.
nTherefore, he asked, “Sixteen, Ye Si, how does it look now? Did the shape of the light of virtue revert back into that of a dragon?”
nSong Shuhang didn’t open his eyes to look at the light of virtue above his head, afraid that he might influence the shape of the ‘dragon’ in his mind if he were to glance at it.
nSu Clan’s Sixteen replied, “It didn’t change, and it has the same shape as before.”
n“From the looks of it, my will was not firm enough.” Song Shuhang gritted his teeth, and said, “Dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon, dragon…”
nAt the same time, he visualized, again and again, the pictures of dragons in his mind.
nAfter a short moment…
nSong Shuhang felt that the flames of the light of virtue burning on his body had reached their peak power!
nThis was the right time!
nWhether the light of virtue would end up turning into a dragon or an insect would be decided in this instant!
nSong Shuhang suddenly opened his eyes, and shouted, “Dragon!”
nWhen he gently shouted, the light of virtue shrouding his body condensed!
nThe lower part, which was wrapped around Song Shuhang’s body, transformed into lifelike glittering scales, extremely dazzling to the eye.
nIt’s the body of a dragon! Song Shuhang was overjoyed. Then, he moved his eyes upward.
nIn the next moment, he saw the glittering upper part of a… stickman.
nA ‘stickman’ was a very simple drawing of a person composed of a few lines and curves. The head was represented by a circle, and the limbs by straight lines attached to the main line that represented the torso.
nAt this time, the lower part of Song Shuhang’s light of virtue—the one wrapping around his body—was entirely covered with golden scales. It looked like a lifelike snake tail.
nAs for the upper part, it had the appearance of a rough stickman. It had no eyes, ears, nose, lips, or tongue… it was nothing but a mass of light condensed together.
nWhat kind of creature was this?
nStickman monster snake?
nThe style of the lower and upper parts were completely different!
n“Why did it become like this?!” Song Shuhang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
n“Hmm, it seems that one’s will can’t determine what kind of shape the light of virtue will assume after condensing,” Senior Sister Ye Si said. Even if Song Shuhang kept visualizing pictures of dragons in his mind, it had no relationship with the shape his light of virtue was going to assume after the condensing process was complete.
nSu Clan’s Sixteen added, “Shuhang, after the qualitative change of your light of virtue took place, I feel as if the upper part is still an ‘incomplete version’. Perhaps your power of virtue wasn’t enough, and you have to collect some more virtue points before the upper part of your light of virtue takes shape properly?”
nSong Shuhang raised his head and looked at that ‘stickman monster snake’ with two completely different styles from top to bottom. Then, he faintly sighed, and said, “From the looks of it, I’ll have to ferry souls again in a short while and see if I can make my light of virtue take shape properly. Although it didn’t end up taking the shape of a huge dragon, a monster snake is also passable. At the very least, it will be better than this stickman monster snake.”
nSu Clan’s Sixteen gently smiled, and said, “You have to remember that it was just my guess. Perhaps you should mentally prepare yourself for your light of virtue staying like this forever.”
nSong Shuhang raised his head once again, looking at the upper part of the stickman monster snake, and sighed again.
n“Shuhang, can you control your light of virtue and make it return back inside your body?” Senior Sister Ye Si asked.
n“I’ll give it a try,” Song Shuhang said, and then issued a mental command.
nIn the next moment, the light of virtue, which had materialized and taken the shape of a stickman monster snake, whizzed back inside Song Shuhang’s body. The only thing left behind was a pale layer of light of virtue protecting Song Shuhang’s body. However, if Song Shuhang were to suffer the effects of a curse, evil technique, or ghastly thing, the solidified light of virtue would immediately come out and protect him from harm!
n“It seems I can control it freely,” Song Shuhang said, very satisfied.
nNext, he asked out of curiosity, “Right. Ye Si, since both you and the solidified light of virtue are staying inside my body, will it give rise to conflicts of any sort?”
n“Let me see.” After saying this much, Ye Si returned back inside Song Shuhang’s body.
nAfter a short moment, she replied, “There isn’t any conflict… actually, I can’t even tell in which part of your body that solidified light of virtue is residing.”
n“It’s good, then,” Song Shuhang said with a nod.
nNext, he thought of another interesting thing.
n“Ye Si, let’s try to use our Two Heads Four Arms superpower again!” Song Shuhang said.
n“You still haven’t had enough of it?”
n“I thought of a new way to use it. Wait for my instructions and then come out with your head from my left side. I need to prepare a little,” Song Shuhang said.
nYe Si replied, “Alright.”
nSong Shuhang closed his eyes and pondered for a short moment.
nThen, he smiled at Su Clan’s Sixteen, and said, “Sixteen, take a look at my new superpower.”
n“?” Su Clan’s Sixteen was confused.
n“Ye Si, get ready! This time… we’ll use the Three Heads and Six Arms superpower!” Song Shuhang called out.
nIn the next moment, Ye Si coordinated with him and made her head come out from Song Shuhang’s left side. Then, her two arms came out of Song Shuhang’s shoulder area.
nAt the same time, the head of a ‘stickman’ drilled out from Song Shuhang’s right side together with a pair of stick-like arms drilling out of his shoulder area.
nThree Heads Six Arms mode!
n“Sixteen, how is it? How does it look?” Song Shuhang asked.
n“…” Su Clan’s Sixteen.
nYe Si turned her head around to look at Song Shuhang’s other side, and then said, “I feel that our current appearance isn’t too cool. The head coming out from your right side is literally a ball of light, a ball that has been squashed, to be precise.”
nSu Clan’s Sixteen added, “In addition, those two arms coming out from behind your shoulders look like two sticks of light that have been inserted in your body.”
nAfter saying this much, she took out her mobile phone and took a picture of Song Shuhang. Afterward, she gave him the phone, and said, “You can see how it look by yourself.”
nSong Shuhang took the mobile phone and gazed at the screen. “The right side having the appearance of a stickman ruined the feeling of the whole picture. If my solidified light of virtue could be improved a little, changing into a person with a proper head and arms, the Three Heads and Six Arms would look perfect.”
n“That might not be the case,” Ye Si said after visualizing the picture. “If the face of the solidified light of virtue turns out to be the same as yours, my head and arms would ruin the whole picture while using the Three Heads and Six Arms superpower.”
n“You have a point.” Song Shuhang returned the mobile phone to Su Clan’s Sixteen. “However, it’s still going to be better than the current stickman, ahaha.”
nSu Clan’s Sixteen took her phone and blinked her eyes, asking, “Shuhang, can I send this picture to the Nine Provinces Number One Group and give the seniors something to talk about, preventing them from seeking death and mentioning Senior White’s matter again while chatting?”
n“You can send it if you want.” Song Shuhang didn’t seem to mind.
nSu Clan’s Sixteen nodded and swiped on the screen of the phone, sending the picture to the Nine Provinces Number One Group.
n❄️❄️❄️
nIn the Nine Provinces Number One Group.
nAfter they finished chatting about the screening of the movie, the seniors couldn’t find any new topic. Thereupon, the group had temporarily quieted down.
nBut right at this time, Su Clan’s Sixteen send that picture where Song Shuhang had three heads and six arms.
nThe first one to reply was obviously Northern River’s Loose Cultivator. “Eh? That’s an interesting picture. Is this little friend Shuhang’s new way of amusing himself? Isn’t the little friend on the left side Fellow Daoist Ye Si from the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion? But what’s that thing on the right? Did you use a magical technique to condense it? @True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple,since you are the ‘Eight-Armed Sword Sage’, do you have anything to say about little friend Song Shuhang’s Three Heads and Six Arms mode?”
nTrue Monarch Ancient Lake Temple: “We can shoot ‘Journey to the West’ or the ‘Investiture of the Gods’ as our next movie. At that time, little friend Song Shuhang can play little Nezha’s role.”
nTrue Monarch Yellow Mountain: “Speaking of which, I just remembered about a picture I took some time ago. I’ll look for the picture and show it to you guys.”
nAfter a short moment, True Monarch Yellow Mountain sent a picture—Three-Headed Infernal Doudou.
nIn the picture, Doudou was still very young and looked adorable. Then, there were two adorable dog heads made of plaster growing on both sides of his real head…
