Chapter 91 The Dragon King of Light Has Taken His Eyes On You
"arrive!"
When Lu Xingchen passed the boundary of the territory of the seventh true dragon soul, his steps suddenly stopped.
He was standing atop a side peak of a valley, where a fierce wind, carrying an ancient aura, whipped his clothes into a fluttering sound.
This valley is not an ordinary mountain depression, but a huge pit formed by the collapse of the entire land. It is more like a basin than a valley.
Lu Xingchen slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and the next moment, even though he was calm and composed, his pupils couldn't help but contract slightly, deeply shocked by the scene before him.
As far as the eye could see, the basin stretched endlessly into the distance until it was swallowed up by the heavy twilight mist, which, like a light veil, shrouded this desolate land.
In that basin, which was a thousand meters deep, countless enormous dragon bones were scattered haphazardly across every corner, their stark white skeletons gleaming with a cold, eerie light in the dim light.
Some are intact, some are incomplete. The smaller ones are tens of meters tall, resembling small mountains, while the larger ones are hundreds of meters high. The keel is winding and intertwined, and you can't see the end of it at a glance. A rough estimate suggests that there are at least a thousand of them.
Without a doubt, this was his final destination—the true burial place of the dragon clan.
"Ding~"
Just then, a soft sound suddenly rang in Lu Xingchen's mind; it was the passive skill "0-01" being triggered.
The Light Dragon King sensed an extremely pure silver dragon aura, and its dormant divine consciousness was quietly awakened. Out of curiosity, it separated a wisp of its divine thought and projected it through the barrier of space and time.
Hmm? A human child? This silver dragon's aura was almost ridiculously pure. It withdrew its restless divine sense and decided to observe this unusual little fellow first.
The Mountain Dragon King's consciousness was awakened by the fluctuations of the Silver Dragon bloodline, and it projected out with a hint of doubt. "Huh? A human child possessing the Silver Dragon bloodline?"
This aura—it seems somewhat similar to that of the little guy who accidentally wandered into Dragon Valley a few years ago and was casually given the bloodline of the Mountain Dragon King by it. However, the bloodline of this child in front of me is much purer than that of that junior.
The Mountain Dragon King, employing its superior wisdom, pondered for a moment and decided that as long as the little fellow didn't do anything outrageous that would disturb the dragon race's slumber, it would let him be. With that thought, it withdrew its divine sense and fell into slumber once more.
"Every word spoken will be known."
The ability of "0-01" is such that when someone tries to spy on Lu Xingchen's information, "0-01" can also reverse the situation and understand the other party's thoughts and origins.
"The Light Dragon King and the Mountain Dragon King?"
Lu Xingchen's eyes flashed. He wasn't surprised by this result, because he had already anticipated it when he arrived at this small position in Dragon Valley.
"However, is the child who was given the bloodline of the Mountain Dragon King—Dragon Leap?"
He roughly guessed the child's identity; it was probably the future prodigy of the Star Luo Continent: Mountain Dragon King Long Yue. His bloodline was indeed not innate, but rather a gift from Dragon Valley.
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Lu Xingchen glanced down at the basin below, then took out the "0-02" from his pocket, put it on, and leaped straight down into the thousand-meter-deep basin.
"Buzz~"
Silver light flashed around him, and the silver dragon's spatial manipulation ability was pushed to its limit.
After only two or three teleportations, Lu Xingchen landed steadily at the bottom of the basin, avoiding the crisscrossing dragon bones.
The moment it landed, a desolate and tragic aura surged from all directions, like a whisper that had transcended countless ages, penetrating every limb and bone, and reaching the very soul.
Only by truly stepping into this basin can one truly feel the visual impact and spiritual shock brought about by the dragon bones scattered all over the ground.
The skeletons of giant dragons lay intertwined, their stark white bones bearing the marks of time. Even after tens of thousands of years of erosion, they still emanated faint energy fluctuations, powerful and domineering, carrying the unique majesty of the dragon race.
Lu Xingchen took a deep breath, slowly walked to the dragon skeleton closest to him, placed his hand on it, and touched the dragon skeleton.
The pseudo-silver dragon bloodline was activated, and a desolate aura instantly emanated from the dragon bones, affecting his emotions. He seemed to hear the dragon's mournful cry before its death.
On the dragon bone, blurry ancient patterns quietly emerged, and terrifying energy fluctuations spread through the air, forming an invisible barrier.
If it weren't for the silver dragon aura emanating from Lu Xingchen, let alone touching it, he would have been attacked by this energy the moment he got close to the dragon bone.
At the same time, a dense stream of data flashed across the lens of 0-02, indicating that the identification capability had been activated.
[Name: Thunder Dragon Bone]
[Race: Dragon/Divine Beast]
[Details: The skeletons left behind by the true dragon after its death. Due to the special laws of the Dragon Valley minor plane, its soul remains here, though its consciousness has become blurred over the long years. It harbors a certain degree of hostility towards those who are not of true dragon blood.]
[Note: Although the Thunder Dragon is dead, its dragon soul still exists. If it senses any offense, it can briefly merge with the dragon bones to fight. Even with only a remnant soul remaining, its combat power is still comparable to a Title Douluo.]
"Even after being dead for so many years, he still has the combat power to rival a Title Douluo. It seems that the dragon bones buried here all reached the level of gods back then."
Lu Xingchen withdrew his hand and continued walking deeper into the basin, constantly reaching out to touch the dragon bones beside him.
The deeper one goes, the larger the dragon bones become, and the more terrifying the energy fluctuations they emit.
Water Dragon, Fire Dragon, Holy Light Dragon, Black Dragon, Ice Dragon, Hell Demon Dragon —
These once mighty dragons have now transformed into white hills, lying quietly in this burial ground.
He could faintly hear the roars of dragons, sometimes passionate, sometimes sorrowful, sometimes angry, as if taking him back to the ancient era when dragons fought for supremacy.
He could almost see giant dragons soaring into the sky on the earth-shattering battlefield, fighting against powerful enemies, and finally falling to their deaths from exhaustion, their bodies turning into eternal skeletons.
"These are gifts from the dragon bones, which, upon sensing the silver dragon bloodline within Lu Xingchen, spontaneously shared their remaining emotions and memories with him." "Even the remaining dragon bones possess such power; the dragon race is indeed an incredibly powerful race."
Lu Xingchen's small face showed just the right amount of amazement, as if she was truly awestruck by the sight of this Dragon Bone Sacred Ruins.
He gently stroked the skeleton of a Holy Dragon of Light, which was a hundred meters tall, beside him, then slowly withdrew his hand and continued walking towards the deepest part of the basin without stopping.
Although he coveted the dragon bones, he hadn't forgotten that a Radiant Dragon King was secretly observing him. Before meeting the main target, it was best to behave himself.
Sure enough, the message "0-01" entered my mind again.
The Light Dragon King was surprised to see a human child who, despite the temptation of so many dragon bones, showed no sign of coveting them.
[You should know that every part of a dragon is a treasure. Even if this child doesn't understand the value of these dragon bones, the soul bones on a giant dragon emit a bright and dazzling fluctuation of soul power, practically proclaiming "I am a treasure" on them.]
Many years ago, a super Douluo with the bloodline of a true dragon forcibly descended to this place and successfully arrived at Dragon Valley. Afterwards, seeing the dragon bones scattered all over the ground, he quickly became greedy and intended to seize the dragon bones here.
Although it intervened in time to drive them away, the other party still managed to steal a true dragon soul bone amidst the chaos, which became a regret it deeply resented.
If this human child also harbors lustful thoughts, out of consideration for its silver dragon bloodline, it will spare its life, but will certainly banish it from Dragon Valley, never to set foot there again.
Fortunately, the little guy's behavior far exceeded its expectations. Not only did it show no greed, but it also displayed genuine respect for the dragon bones, handling them with meticulous care and solemnity with every touch.
The wariness in the heart of the Light Dragon King gradually dissipated, and his gaze toward that figure couldn't help but show more goodwill.
Lu Xingchen continued walking, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly stopped again.
Not far ahead of him, in the deepest part of the basin, lay two gigantic skeletons, far exceeding the other dragon bones, exuding a chilling aura. Even after ten thousand years, they still possessed the domineering aura of a king who looked down upon the world.
The skeleton on the left is over a thousand meters tall. Its bones are a deep brownish-black, completely different from the stark white of the other dragon bones. An incomparably heavy aura emanates from the skeleton, causing the gravity of the ground within a radius of several thousand meters around it to suddenly increase several times, and even the air seems to freeze.
This skeleton showed no trace of dragon wings. Its body was as thick as a jade pillar supporting the sky, especially its limbs, which were incredibly thick, like pillars supporting the heavens and earth, exuding a majestic aura that could suppress mountains and rivers.
The data stream flashed rapidly across the lens of “0-02”, and the information appeared instantly.
[Name: Bone of the Mountain Dragon King]
[Race: Dragon/Divine Beast]
[Details: The remains of the Mountain Dragon King, one of the nine ancient dragon kings. Although his flesh has decayed, his dragon soul remains intact, and his mind is relatively clear. Once the dragon soul merges with the dragon bones, he can briefly unleash demigod-level combat power.]
[Note: Due to the passage of time, divine power and consciousness have greatly declined. Current mental strength is equivalent to the early stage of the Dry Spirit Realm (the level of an ordinary Limit Douluo).]
To the right of the Mountain Dragon King's skeleton, another skeleton appears slightly "smaller," but it still reaches a height of 700 meters.
A pure and radiant aura flowed over the skeleton, warm yet majestic, as if it could purify all darkness in the world.
This skeleton has wings on its back, and its dragon bones are winding and unfurled. Its head is held high, and even though it is just a skeleton, it still maintains a proud posture that looks down on the sky, as if telling the story of the dragon race's unyielding pride.
[Name: Bone of the Radiant Dragon King]
[Race: Dragon/Divine Beast]
[Details: The remains of the Light Dragon King, one of the nine ancient dragon kings. His dragon soul remains intact, and his mind is clear. After the dragon soul and dragon bones combine, he can briefly unleash quasi-god level combat power.]
[Note: Divine power and consciousness have weakened due to the erosion of time; current mental strength is equivalent to the mid-level of the Spirit Realm.]
"A demigod and a quasi-god—even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Even after ten thousand years of decline, they can still unleash such terrifying combat power."
Lu Xingchen looked at the information on the lens and couldn't help but marvel.
He knew very well that, without any attribute advantage, a demigod was enough to rival two Limit Douluos in terms of combat power.
A quasi-god can even fight three demigod-level powerhouses single-handedly.
However, Lu Xingchen was also well aware that the combat power unleashed by the combination of dragon soul and dragon bone would inevitably have great hidden dangers, and would definitely be a forbidden method that would hurt the enemy a thousand while hurting himself eight hundred.
Otherwise, the Light Dragon King wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed after letting that Super Douluo steal his soul bone.
This incident is also recorded in the Tang Sect's top-secret files. After all, the audacious Super Douluo who stole the True Dragon Soul Bone from Dragon Valley back then was a member of the Tang Sect.
After bypassing the two imposing skeletons of the two dragon kings, Lu Xingchen suddenly stopped, a hint of undisguised surprise flashing in his eyes.
Behind the Mountain Dragon King, the ground collapsed, revealing a massive pit over ten thousand meters in diameter. This was a valley within a valley.
Lu Xingchen walked to the edge of the deep pit and looked inside. The pit was a thousand meters deep, and the bottom was not the jagged rocks he had imagined, but was shrouded in a cloud of colorful mist.
The mist swirled and shifted, sometimes as clear as glass, sometimes as ethereal as clouds, completely obscuring the view at the bottom of the pit, giving it a mysterious and eerie feel.
"Um?"
A soft "hmm" escaped Lu Xingchen's throat, his brows twitched involuntarily, and his fingertips felt slightly numb.
This was his spiritual warning; the faint sense of crisis pierced his senses like needles, clearly reminding him that something that could threaten his life was hidden beneath the pit.
He focused his attention for a moment, then his brow slowly relaxed. The spiritual warning wasn't strong; it was more like a well-intentioned admonition than a life-or-death alert.
This means that while the danger below certainly exists, with his current strength, as long as he proceeds cautiously, he may be able to handle it with ease.
"Since we're already here..."
Lu Xingchen muttered to himself, then without further hesitation, he swayed and leaped straight into the deep pit.
"Whoosh!"
With a whooshing sound, he used the same trick again, causing ripples to spread around him. His ability to teleport was pushed to its limit, and his figure moved like a ghost through the colorful mist.
At the same time, Lu Xingchen's pseudo-silver dragon bloodline was pushed to its limit in one go, and a powerful dragon might swept out from his body, which was several times stronger than when he was wandering in the Dragon Bone Mountain Range.
Having previously observed so many dragon skeletons, and even had close contact with the remains of two great dragon kings.
Through continuous comprehension, his pseudo-silver dragon bloodline, which was originally close to the level of a dragon king, has now undergone a complete transformation. His aura has become smooth and profound, and he has truly stepped into the realm of a dragon king.
Within the deep pit, the previously surging, multicolored light suddenly froze upon sensing this pure and powerful dragon might.
The next second, the tangible, seven-colored mist seemed to encounter a king's subjects, trembling slightly before parting to the sides like a tide, automatically making way for a path leading straight to the bottom of the pit, allowing Lu Xingchen's figure to pass through.
After passing through layers of colorful mist, the view suddenly opened up.
As Lu Xingchen's body touched the ground, the sight before him made him catch his breath.
At the center of the pit, a gigantic dragon soul, both illusory and incredibly solid, was coiled.
The dragon soul was twice the size of the mountain dragon king's skeleton, its entire body shimmering with seven-colored light, and even its scales were seven-colored.
Its scales appear irregular, each seemingly different in shape, yet they harmonize perfectly, like countless gemstones inlaid together.
This is—the Dragon God's soul?
