Even though he had long been back he was still struggling to come up with a name. He had gone around and asked for suggestions but they either had no suggestions or where ones that neither himself or the dove liked.
After sitting down, he kept on thinking of names and presenting them to the dove of which each time he would receive a chirp which meant no, what he was looking for was a double chirp which meant yes.
"This is already the 20th name. Just pick one already. How's Sombra? Its a beautiful sounding name."
The bird with its eyes closed this whole time opened them and started chirping over and over. Its eyes showed delight over the sound of that name.
"So, you like the sound of Sombra heh. Well then, I guess its decided that your name from now on will be Sombra."
The moment the name was decided the doves body started glowing for less than a second and its eyes which showed a childlike intelligence now showed a more comprehensive and intrigued look, like it suddenly became smarter.
He was intrigued as this was a clear sign of the heavens carving that name directly into its soul. 'Seems this dove is very lucky, well its either my luck that affected the dove or it has its own heavenly luck. To think a rare event such as a beast's name being accepted by the heavens would happen to this little dove.
I'm not going to complain though as it's a huge boon for the dove as the heavens accepting its name means that its intelligence and talent get a boost and the heavens are also more lenient towards the creature allowing for smoother bottlenecks.
Its double phoenix bloodline plus being linked to my own luck is probably what caused the phenomenon. Well, it seems like she's happy with the heavens accepting her name. Hopefully she should be able to speak within the next few months using spiritual communication at least, it has a phoenix bloodline so it should carry the innate trait of spiritual linking, allowing for communication between master and itself.'
The dove now called Sombra was happily chirping around, but it didn't take long before it exhausted its energy and went back to sleep. It was still a new born and no matter how powerful its bloodline or being favourited by the heavens it still needs its rest to continue growing.
After sorting out Sombra and leaving her to sleep in his scarf, he heads towards his personal cultivation room for him and his harem. He first leaved his personal world and heads towards the cultivation room he had set up. Inside the room there is multiple arrays and one of those is a Qi gathering array.
Using the knowledge within the database he created a tier 3 array using the elders from the phoenix company plus a few others in the empire. The tier 3 array allows for the density of Qi to be 10x that of outside.
Once in the room he heads into his personal world, and now because he entered from a location with 10x density his inner world has increased it even more.
At first the Qi density multiplier was 2x but when he reached stage 1 it increased to 3x, and he knows when he reaches stage 2 it will be 4x.
So right now the density of the inner world is 30x, due to taking advantage of the multiplier from his inner world. He then heads to another Qi gathering array further increasing the density by 10x within that room.
This is his ultimate cultivation room specific for himself, Yan Yin ang his personal maids who he favours. With the additional 10x from the array the Qi within the room is 300x more than normal.
The moment he found out about being able to double the Qi density of the location he is in while within the inner world, this was the first idea he came up with and the more powerful he gets and more powerful subordinates it will only increase with it eventually being able to be in the thousands of times more density.
Obviously, there are dials on the inscription to dial it down in case the person in the room can't handle the amount of Qi and the whole world is regulated to be at max 10x the normal. Placed like his sect have it higher but he has to keep it at a level everywhere else for mortals to be able to survive.
Sitting down he starts to repeat the mantra for the Demon Dragon Refining Technique to increase his body strength and allowing the destructive energy from the demon and dragon realm to enter his body and destroy it from the inside.
So far, he has mostly been focusing on his body strength and his body cultivation has now reached the peak of grade 1, which is equivalent to peak stage 1, while his cultivation is slightly behind with him just entering level 7 stage 1.
Due to the destructive nature of the demon dragon refining technique he was forced to also practice another body refining technique called Golden Buddha Tribulations which increases his body's strength, regeneration and resistance against aliments. It has similar benefits that the demon dragon refining technique would give except that it is purely focused on increasing strength instead of preparing the body to receive a bloodline.
The demon dragon refining technique is grabbing energy from high level plains and using the energy to destroy the body before healing it and making it stronger and infusing some energy. This is all in preparation for when he can create the demon dragon bloodline using the mantra of the technique which would allow his body to get an explosive increase in strength with each drop.
The Golden Buddha Tribulations technique only focuses on using the Qi and the mantra to increase the bodys strength by a certain amount each level. The two a are a perfect match as to train the Buddha technique, the body must be constantly destroyed before healing using the technique.
The average body strength of a late stage 1 cultivator is around 10 tons while for a late rank 1 body cultivator its around 50 tons. Due to him using the demon dragon refining technique his body strength is around 200 tons which is equal to a low rank 2 body cultivator.
Right now both his techniques are nearing the first level of progression. For the dragon demon technique, it has 10 stages with each stage increasing the amount of demon dragon blood within his body. At the first stage a single drop is able to be produced. Each drop increases all the bodys functions and strengths by a percentage value of 200%.
The Buddha technique has 12 stages and at the first stage the natural strength of the body is 1000 tons of strength which is equal to a late stage 2 body cultivator. With the increase of 200% from the demon dragon blood his strength should near 3000 tons of strength which is very close to the 5000 tons of strength an early rank 3 body cultivator has.
Reciting the mantra the demon dragon technique, a dense frightful aura starts to seep into the room from what looks like a dark pitch black hole next to him. The aura quickly starts to attack his body causing him in an extreme amount of pain which was drastically lessened due to his spirit controlling technique.
Once his body was destroyed enough by the aura he stopped the demon dragon technique and started to use the buddha technique which starts to rapidly absorb surrounding Qi and use it to rebuild his body at a fast pace.
With only a second of letting out less than a hairs strand of energy from the demon and dragon realm, caused him to spend many hours healing and digesting the energy ravaging his insides as he heals.
He continues to repeat this all night with many pills being used to support the golden buddha tribulations technique. By the morning next day he had just managed to go through his 4th round of the demon dragon technique.
Suddenly the energy within his body exploded out as his body started to glow with a golden light. His muscles tensed up as the veins on his whole body started to grow and visibly pump blood at a much faster rate.
His muscles stated to rapidly grow as well and within only a minute his body transformed into a muscly figure beating that of even the hulk. Once reaching this state the golden light started to fade and was replaced by steam rising from his muscles.
His whole body started turning blood red through the skin and a small abyss like portal was created in the middle of his heart. From within the darkness a drop of void like black blood came out and landed in the middle of his heart.
The steam around his body quickly turned blood red as his blood started boiling. The drop of demon dragon blood that came from the portal started to revolve around his body going through his reinforced veins that are barely staying together.
Even though his body was going through an insanely torturous even his expression is dead calm as if he doesn't even feel it. This was the biggest advantage of the spirit controlling technique, and allows him to calmly use Qi to reinforce his body and to stop it from exploding.
After many circulations the drop of blood started to thin out as all the blood within his body stated to get a darker hue. By the time the whole drop was gone his figure had gotten even bigger as he now looked like a giant on steroids with the comically large muscles bulging from everywhere.
The blood red steam soon rested as the room he was in was now stained in the blood vapor. The golden light once again started to come about and the muscles on his body started to slowly shrink.
Though that's only to an outsider would they look to be shrinking. In actuality they are condensing instead on shrinking and becoming denser. He soon returned back to his normal body size except the muscles on his body where a lot more defined and where as hard as steel.
Opening his eyes, he stands up. As he is standing up he accidentally uses to much strength and just the motion of him using his legs to push himself up caused him to jump a few meters in the air.
Once on the ground he stabilizes himself while clenching his fist causing his arm muscles to flex. He could already feel the deadly force contained within his flexed arm and couldn't help but smile at the feeling of pure power in his arm.
'I should now have reached the first level of both the demon dragon refining technique and the golden buddha tribulations. The golden buddha tribulations gives me the strength of 1000 tons while the demon dragon technique should increase that by 200% and give me higher resistances against darkness and fire elements.
I should have also unlocked the first ability of the demon dragon, Darkness Claw. It allows me to send a wave of darkness Qi in the shape of a dragon claw using the bloods power to create the darkness. It should be able to swallow others attacks so long as it isn't above a certain limit compared to my own strength. Unfortunately, the downside of the technique is that it is quite slow. Well, its actually fast, traveling as fast as a late stage 1 wind element cultivator but against stage 3 and above opponents it would be tough for it to catch up.
I should try get the wind of lightning element and try to combine it, so I can increase its speed which would make the technique extremely powerful. But still its ability to swallow enemy's Qi attacks makes it a powerful skill, too bad it would require lots of Qi to use so I unfortunately can't spam it yet.'
He then looks towards the reinforced walls that even a stage 4 cultivator couldn't damage and starts to gather Qi at the tips of his fingers. The drop of demon dragon blood responds to his will and the Qi starts to take the shape of a talon.
He then slashed his arm out like a sword and the talon leaves his hand forming a giant pitch-black slash going forward towards the wall. It smashes into the wall causing a large rumble.
He had a confused expression as although it called about the damage he hoped, it was completely silent. He was expecting a giant slashing or exploding noise but instead the only noise was from the rumbling. It was as if the sound itself from the attack got absorbed into the darkness. He couldn't help but smile as his mind starts to think of ways to abuse the soundlessness of the devastating attack.
