The branches of the dragon race’s skills were rather widespread. There were skills available for every different type of the dragon races such as the golden dragon, dark dragon, silver dragon and many more. When Chu Nan first came across the term ‘saint dragons’, he was immediately blown away by how cool and powerful the name was, so he decisively chose that particular race’s skill books and started browsing through it.

‘Not bad, not bad!’ Chu Nan nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to finish browsing the skills book available for saint dragons, he found the perfect skill book for a lazy member of society like him. The skill inheritance did not have any requisite skills to learn. Moreover, after learning the skill, the body would be able to self-repair itself which could further improve as the battle aura increased. And the most important point, the cultivator would be able to train other external skills without even breaking a sweat.

‘This shall be it! A skill that’s suitable for lazy people to train!’ Chu Nan clapped on the and carefully read through every page of the training methods. After which, he kept the book back into the spatial bracelet and started to train.

In order to stay safe here, even a lazy person has to be more diligent!

Chu Nan wholeheartedly immersed himself in his cultivation and did not notice the note on the last page: ‘This skill is only suitable for saint dragons to train. Other races should exercise caution when training in this skill.’

The last sentence in the book did not clearly state why the need to exercise caution when training and what are the consequences if improperly done.

No one in this world had ever learned the skill inheritances of other races. The reason was because an ordinary technique required the corresponding race’s bloodline before it could be learned. Even though there were some unique high grade skills that other races could freely learn, those skills were usually kept secret by the respective races. Who would actually be so kind to give away their advantage to someone else?

As a result, people had developed a notion that people could only learn their own respective race’s skills and that no one should attempt to learn skills of other races.

How could Chu Nan possibly know of all these weird rules? As for what would happen to him if he were to train in the , even the chief of the saint dragon would not know his ending.

Would he turn into a human-shaped saint dragon? Or would he simply transform into a saint dragon? Or perhaps he will have the same ending as a thief who was rumored to have stolen the skill but ended up exploding to death?

Chu Nan was already immersed in his first attempt at training in the . According to the introduction written in the book, he should be able to sense an extremely weak energy from the energy sources within his body.

Energy sources? It was naturally an easy feat to accomplish for normal people. However, Chu Nan had ninety-nine energy sources and only god knows where the initial trace of battle aura could be hidden?

In order to locate that trace of battle aura, it was extremely troublesome…

Just as Chu Nan’s complained, one of the energy sources around his chest suddenly thumped and shortly after, a large wisp of battle aura that was much more than he required appeared in him.

‘Is this still considered a trace of energy?’ Chu Nan sensed the sudden energy within his body and felt confused. According to the introduction of , the strength of the battle aura in his body right now was approaching the second level.

As someone who had flipped through several sutras, he was well aware that all of the different sutras’ introductions were catered towards beginners who just came into contact with cultivation. Regardless if you were a genius in cultivation or trash, there would only be that slight trace of energy within.

‘Why is this trace of energy in me so strong? Eh? Why is it so familiar? Also, why is it so comfortable and warm when I just followed the steps introduced in the book?’ It was somewhat similar to what he felt when he killed wild beasts.

‘Wait! It’s not similar, but the exact same trace of energy!’ Chu Nan nearly cried out in shock. The past few days, he could feel a warm current inside his body whenever he killed animals, and it seemed like…

Chu Nan gulped as his body slightly trembled. It was written in the that normal sutras were easily grasped, but the future progress of those sutras would become increasingly slower. Yet, it was the opposite for this particular sutra he was trying to learn. The initial stages of training the battle aura were exceptionally difficult, it could be described as being slower than a turtle.

If one was able to reach the first grade within half a year, they would be deemed as a genius! If they reached second grade within the same time frame, they would be a monstrous genius. As for reaching level 1, probably only a slave of a true god had that ability to accomplish the feat.

Chu Nan chuckled. Perhaps this was only suitable for the dragon clan to learn? If they could only advance by one grade every once a year, then how many years would they require to advance to level 1? Without the long lifespan of the dragon race, it was entirely meaningless and difficult to train this skill.

He continuously maneuvered the energy in his body according to the book’s training method and very soon, this rogue energy gradually turned into something he could control.

The only issue was that after the energy moved around once, not only did it not become increasingly strong as per written in the sutra, it instead became weaker! However, Chu Nan was not nervous in the slightest when he encountered that.

For someone who had browsed through numerous skill books, he knew that the battle aura cultivated via different sutras had a huge difference in quality.

In a situation when both parties were at level 1, if someone who trained in were to fight against someone who trained in , the latter would basically trash the former, on the basis that they disregarded the utilization of different skills and purely fought with their battle aura.

After numerous rounds of circulation, the had removed a portion of the impurities present in his original battle aura. Even though it seemed to have decreased, it was instead making it purer which would be much more beneficial for his future progress.

Chu Nan gradually stopped his training after some time. It was not recommended to train for too long for his first attempt; this was something he learned from the skill books.

He grasped his fists and took a deep breath. He quickly noticed that his breathing seemed to be smoother than before. It seemed like it was true that the can change a person’s constitution.

According to the records stated in the skill book, the initial change was the most obvious and Chu Nan had indeed sensed that initial change.

Even though the change seemed insignificant, it was something all experts desired.

Their constitution was innate while battle aura was acquired. After their strength reached a certain realm, other than to work hard and train, it would all depend on their innate constitution. At that point in time, they wouldn’t be competing with others with only their efforts and comprehension, but also with the innate constitution of their physique.

There were countless experts in the Shengyuan Contient who had thought of every possible method to find sutras that could change their constitution. It was to the extent if someone was willing to give them a skill inheritance that could change their constitution, even if they were asked to kill a thousand people, they would still be willing to fulfill that request.
