The assembled disciples, upon hearing Chen Luo's words, initially thought he was joking.
The so-called Transformation Art was a divine technique bestowed by the Heavenly Dao upon great demons after they ascended to immortality.
It wasn't that no demon had attempted to improve this divine art, but how perfect was a divine art granted by Heaven and Earth?
In terms of rank, the Transformation Art could be considered a supreme divine method above the ninth rank in the art of techniques!
Moreover, the Heavenly Transformation Art was not entirely universal; it was a targeted divine art granted by the Heavenly Dao for different demon individuals!
Therefore, even the supreme masters of techniques who had appeared in history had stated that there was no room for improvement in a Heavenly-granted divine art like the Transformation Art!
Yet, this young Taishang before them claimed to have improved upon a Heavenly-granted divine art?
But for a moment, among the over ten thousand cultivators in the square, not a single person dared to mock him.
Because even those who didn't understand the art of techniques could feel the beauty of the spiritual patterns that appeared in their minds.
Just by sensing the spiritual pattern trajectory of the so-called improved Transformation Art in their minds, they felt their own realm of techniques had subtly improved!
As the disciples hesitated, at the very front of the formation, a spiritual light suddenly shot up into the sky.
The spiritual patterns enveloping a certain disciple’s light obscured all external prying eyes.
When the light dispersed, a short-haired girl in a black and white short skirt looked at her fair and tender hands with a hint of confusion.
A moment later, the girl seemed to have adapted to her hands, and with a happy expression, she grabbed the spiritual bamboo that had fallen to the ground beside her, and opened her mouth again as if to gnaw on it!
But before the spiritual bamboo could enter her mouth, a large hand snatched it away from the girl’s grasp.
Pity the girl who had just transformed, seeing her spiritual bamboo snatched away, her gaze immediately followed the bamboo, but when she realized she couldn't grasp the raised bamboo no matter what, the little girl was on the verge of tears.
Chen Luo helplessly stroked the girl, who seemed to have weak intelligence, and had some guesses in his heart. This fellow's talent was very strong, but her actual species age was probably very young.
Seeing that the large hand not only snatched her bamboo but also stroked her head, the girl became completely enraged. She leaped up from the spot and bit fiercely at the hand that was stroking her head.
However, instead of biting the expected palm, Chen Luo stuffed a colorful lollipop into the girl’s mouth.
The sweetness she had never experienced before was infinitely amplified by her newly acquired human senses. The girl immediately became dazed, holding the lollipop and happily eating it.
As for the bamboo? The girl declared she wasn't familiar with it!
Chen Luo looked at the spiritual bamboo in his hand and sighed, "My Transformation Art is still not perfect. The closer to ascension, the better the effect, but even Senior Sister Zhu, who is at the peak of the Dao Path, cannot achieve the complete species change of ascension."
Yes, the tender girl in the black and white short skirt at the very front of the formation was precisely the Iron-eating Beast at the peak of the Dao Path.
Seeing Senior Sister Zhu successfully transform, the other spiritual demons were shocked and one after another activated the improved Transformation Art taught by Chen Luo.
A moment later, all the spiritual demons on the square disappeared without a trace, replaced by young men and women wearing simple clothing.
They curiously examined their newly transformed bodies, and if Chen Luo hadn't specifically made their clothes with anti-shedding features, these fellows would probably have gone off to research who knows what.
The moment Chen Luo observed everyone with his Supreme Eye, he had tailored an improved version of the Transformation Art for each spiritual demon.
Now, after everyone had transformed, the disciples' expressions towards Chen Luo had completely changed:
"This… this is actually real?"
"This kid actually has some skills!"
"Hmph! What kid! Call him Taishang! Don't be disrespectful!"
"Hiss! Sha Sha, I never imagined you'd turn into a white-haired maiden!"
"Ai! Di Di, you too! So this is what a killer whale looks like after transforming!"
It was unclear if it was due to the species, but after transforming, Chen Luo discovered that nearly seventy percent of the spiritual demons present were female.
However, although all the spiritual demons had transformed into human form, Chen Luo found some problems.
The Heavenly Transformation Art completely changed the species of the great demon. After using the Transformation Art to turn into a human, the reproductive barrier was truly broken.
But for the spiritual demons before him, the lower their cultivation on the Dao Path, the heavier the inherent abnormalities they retained.
For example, the white-haired beauty called Di Di actually weighed over a ton, although this was completely imperceptible from her appearance.
As for Senior Sister Zhu, who was at the peak of the Dao Path, after transforming, she was basically like a young girl. If she had continued to gnaw on bamboo, she would have ended up with a mouth full of wounds.
Of course, only her physical body was weakened; she still retained her cultivation at the peak of the Dao Path.
Moreover, if this human form suffered severe damage, she would automatically revert to her Iron-eating Beast form.
"Alas, even the strongest Dao Path transformation still has species isolation. And the lower the cultivation, the more the human transformation is only superficial. My improvement isn't quite right."
"Forget it, let's just call it the 'Minor Transformation Art'."
The disciples at the very front, numbering over a hundred, were now at a loss for words to face this Taishang.
Sir, do you know how awesome you are?!
The original forms of demons were indeed powerful, but most of their growth potential was already determined by their innate bloodline, setting an upper limit.
Therefore, when demons fought against humans, besides their original forms, they also had to rely on the Five Dharma Arts of Protecting the Dao.
However, non-human bodies had many inconveniences when cultivating the Five Dharma Arts of Protecting the Dao.
This was also why most great demons at the ascension stage maintained their human forms.
And now, as soon as these spiritual demons transformed into humans, they felt their minds become much clearer, and their comprehension of the Five Dharma Arts of Protecting the Dao became much smoother.
Such divine skill, a divine art completely surpassing the ninth rank, was actually viewed with such disdain by this young Taishang?!
Linglong, who was beside him, was already somewhat immune to her master's awesomeness. Anyway, no matter how powerful things her master did, she just had to agree.
Never try to apply the common sense of the cultivation world to her master, or you'll question your life!
Suddenly, amidst the disciples adapting to their human bodies, there were bursts of intense monkey calls:
"Squeak! Squeak!! (Why am I growing fur?!!)"
"Squeak! (Taishang! Save us!)"
Numerous large monkeys, dressed in clothes, stood on their hind legs, crying out amidst the transformed spiritual demons.
Chen Luo coughed lightly and waved his hand, a spiritual light passing through.
In the next moment, these thousands of large monkeys reverted to their human forms.
Well, this was also a function of the Minor Transformation Art.
After all, Chen Luo had said he would teach everyone present a little something. Since spiritual demons could transform into humans, humans could naturally use the Minor Transformation Art to transform into spiritual demons.
However, Chen Luo was also a bit puzzled as to why these human cultivators all transformed into monkeys when they reversed their transformations into spiritual demons.
And although these clothed monkeys looked ridiculous, their physical bodies and vital energy were extremely strong.
After a brief period of thought, Chen Luo, finding no clues, stopped dwelling on it.
At this moment, all the cultivators of the Hanhai Sect had transformed into human form, and from the bottom of their hearts, they expressed their admiration for this unfathomable Taishang.
What? Taishang is only at the ninth stage of the Dao Path?
Hmph, are the ninth stage of Taishang the same as our ninth stage? That's our Hanhai's Taishang!
Chen Luo looked at the fervent gazes of the cultivators, a smile playing on his lips, and said with a light laugh:
"Everyone must have no questions for me now. So, for the next seven days, listen carefully to my arrangements."
"I will give you an opportunity, and also give those guests a little shock from Hanhai."
