Chapter 90 Dragon Valley Minor Dimension
In a desolate yet vast small plane.
A faint lingering aura of dragon might floated in the air, both majestic and carrying a decaying chill. The vast expanse of sky and earth was devoid of any sign of life, save for the whistling of the wind as it cut through the cracks in the rocks, like the lament of an ancient dragon.
"Roar~", "Roar~"
Two roars suddenly exploded, shattering the silence of the plane.
Two earth dragons, each about three meters tall, stood on the wasteland. Their thick hind legs supported them firmly on the ground, and their broad backs showed no trace of wing membranes. Their iron-gray scales gleamed with a cold, hard luster in the gray mist.
Their heads were lowered, muscles bulged beneath their wrinkled skin, and a ferocious fighting spirit burned in their amber pupils. The next second, they crashed into each other like two moving mountains.
"Bang!"
The deafening roar kicked up a cloud of dust, and the shockwave spread outwards, swirling rubble and withered grass into the air.
The heads of the two earth dragons collided heavily, sparks flying as their scales rubbed together. Their massive bodies were thrown back several meters by the impact, their heavy feet carving deep trenches into the ground.
After regaining their footing, they shook their drowsy heads. The ferocity in their eyes had not diminished; instead, it had grown even more bloodthirsty and ferocious. They stared intently at their opponent, letting out low growls as they prepared for their next charge.
Strangely, although these two earth dragons have lifelike shapes, their bodies have a somewhat ethereal and translucent quality, presenting an almost transparent iron-gray color.
Sunlight shines on them, penetrating their scales and revealing faint energy veins flowing within their bodies.
They are not physical beings, but dragon souls formed from the special energy of this plane. They survive by relying on the laws of the dragon graveyard, and their only instinct is to fight and protect.
「唰一」
Just as the two earth dragons were about to pounce on each other again, a subtle spatial fluctuation quietly spread out, like ripples on a calm lake.
Immediately afterwards, a silver light suddenly shone in the center of the battlefield. The light was not dazzling, but it had a quality that seemed to transcend time and space. The moment the light dissipated, a small figure suddenly appeared between the two earth dragons.
"Roar!" "Roar!"
The unfamiliar aura instantly stung the senses of the two earth dragons, causing them to halt their impending collision. When they realized the intruder was a human, their previously ferocious gazes were instantly replaced by crimson, and they charged without hesitation.
This is the final resting place of the dragons. Any non-dragon creatures that move about here will be attacked by these dragon beasts, with humans being the primary target.
"Hoichi—"
Faced with the two approaching earth dragons, Lu Xingchen's expression remained unchanged. He simply took a step forward and then let out a deep and majestic dragon roar.
The dragon's roar was not loud, but it carried a suppressive force originating from the depths of the bloodline, like an emperor's command, resounding across the stone plain.
The two earth dragons formed from energy had just rushed into Lu Xingchen's vicinity of ten meters when they heard the dragon's roar. Their massive bodies froze in place as if they had been frozen in place.
All anger and ferocity faded from their amber pupils, replaced by deep fear. Their massive bodies trembled involuntarily, their scales clanging against each other.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two muffled explosions rang out in succession, and the energy bodies of the two earth dragons exploded on the spot, turning into two dense, iron-gray energy orbs. As if they were alive, they rushed towards Lu Xingchen's body, seemingly wanting to merge into his body.
"As expected of the dragon's burial ground."
Lu Xingchen watched the energy ball rushing towards him, a faint smile curving his lips. He murmured to himself, "In this place, the purer the bloodline of a true dragon, the more it thrives."
He raised his hand and waved it casually, as easily as shooing away an annoying fly.
An invisible force of energy suddenly appeared, and the two balls of iron-gray energy that were eager to merge into his body changed direction instantly, flying towards the distant wasteland as if swept by a gale.
Before stepping into this dragon graveyard, he had already used his "0-01" ability to conduct a general reconnaissance of the area, so he was naturally very familiar with everything here.
As for how "0-01" obtained the information?
This is quite simple, because the Tang Sect is also developing the small plane where this dragon cemetery is located, and has accumulated a lot of research results.
[Top Secret File: Dragon Valley Minor Dimension.]
【Note 1: Dragon Valley possesses special laws and powers. Soul Masters whose cultivation level is below that of a Five-Ring Soul King will have their Martial Soul forcibly sealed.】
Soul Masters at the Soul King level or above can break through the power of laws and use their Martial Souls, but they will also be repelled by the power of laws and unable to enter Dragon Valley.
[Note 2: Powerful individuals above the Super Douluo level can force their way in using their superior cultivation, but they will still be repelled by the power of the laws and cannot remain inside for long.]
[Note: Even a Limit Douluo can only stay for a maximum of three days. (Leaves by Tang Sect Vice Sect Master, Amorous Douluo.)]
【Important Note 3 ————】
"0-01" means searching for information about the Tang Clan and then sharing that information with him.
After years of exploration, the Tang Sect discovered that the earth dragons in the Dragon Clan Cemetery produce a special energy body after they die. If a Soul Master absorbs this energy, it can effectively enhance their physical strength and temper their bloodline.
If one absorbs too much of the earth dragon's energy, then one's martial soul and bloodline are very likely to be tainted with the aura of the dragon race, and may even cause the martial soul to evolve in the direction of the dragon race.
The power of the dragon race goes without saying. Even ordinary earth dragons start with at least a high-level martial soul and can evolve towards the dragon race. For the vast majority of soul masters, this is definitely a worthwhile thing.
However, this is not a good thing for Lu Xingchen. He has not forgotten that he has two living fathers on the Douluo Continent, and he does not want to be suppressed by his bloodline in the future.
Disguise is one thing, but he doesn't want to actually get too much dragon blood on him.
"Then, the next step is to find the place where those true dragons are sleeping." Lu Xingchen looked up into the distance, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes. His purpose in stepping into this small plane was to find new "materials".
To this end, he deliberately used the "0-01" ability to rewrite reality, consuming a lot of mental energy, in order to successfully arrive here with the help of the teleportation pendant.
"call"
Lu Xingchen closed his eyes and focused his mind on his body.
The next second, oval-shaped silver dragon scales slowly emerged from his skin, the scales delicate and lustrous, as if forged from the purest silver.
As the dragon scales appeared, the previously calmly flowing elemental forces around him suddenly became active. Various elements such as wind, water, fire, earth, light, and darkness surrounded him, forming visible energy vortexes that emitted a slight hum.
Since connecting with Li Mengjie, he has taken advantage of the Tianhai Spirit Pagoda to observe the soul beasts with dragon bloodlines on multiple occasions, studying their bloodline fluctuations and energy circulation methods.
In addition, he also has two silver wolves in his own small world that have successfully activated the silver dragon bloodline. Through day-to-day observation and imitation, he has become increasingly adept at simulating the silver dragon bloodline.
"That should be it."
Lu Xingchen silently adjusted the energy fluctuations within his body, releasing the aura of the Silver Dragon bloodline to be even richer and purer.
"roar-
—
In the nearby forest, a dozen or so half-meter-tall Velociraptor Dragon Souls were lurking in the bushes. They were small in size, agile in movement, and their sharp claws were enough to tear through steel. They had already locked onto Lu Xingchen and were just waiting for the best opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
But when the rich and pure aura of silver dragon bloodline emanated from Lu Xingchen, these swift dragon souls instantly turned into frightened rabbits, their eyes filled with extreme fear. They turned and ran wildly into the depths of the forest, afraid that if they were a step too slow, they would be crushed by that terrifying bloodline power.
That's about it.
Lu Xingchen opened his eyes, a satisfied smile playing on his lips: "Next, I'll go find a few true dragon souls to observe. If I can see a dragon soul at the level of a dragon king, then imitation should be much easier."
Sensing the active elemental fluctuations around him, he gained a deeper understanding of the mythical creature forms of the "audience" pathway.
The wonder of this form lies in the fact that, as long as the user possesses sufficient imagination and precise simulation ability, they can transform into any species—a dragon, a phoenix, a kunpeng—
Theoretically, it can become any being, making it a true ultimate life form.
Of course, his simulation is currently limited to appearance. Although he can imitate the bloodline aura and appearance, he cannot yet possess the full power of the corresponding species.
"Over there."
After simulating the pure silver dragon bloodline, Lu Xingchen's senses were instantly amplified, and he abruptly turned his gaze eastward.
In that direction, a faint yet clear pulling force came, as if something was calling to him, or more precisely, calling to the "Silver Dragon Bloodline" within him.
In this dragon cemetery, the only place that could resonate with the bloodline of a true dragon is the burial ground of a true dragon.
Lu Xingchen's body flashed with silver light, and in the next moment he appeared a thousand meters away. This was the spatial manipulation ability of the silver dragon.
During the teleportation, his silver dragon bloodline was as conspicuous as a light bulb.
"call-
'
The whistling wind swept overhead, and the clouds that were originally scattered across the sky suddenly came to life.
These clouds are colorful, with red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple intertwined and shimmering with a faint golden light at the edges, as if they were woven from gemstone fragments.
They broke free from the constraints of the airflow, as if attracted by an invisible magnet, and sped toward Lu Xingchen. Amidst the surging clouds, they even carried a sense of impatient collision.
"This is... Long Yun?"
Lu Xingchen's gaze shifted slightly as he recognized this treasure unique to Dragon Valley.
The energy contained in the Dragon Cloud is far purer than that of the Earth Dragon Soul. If a Soul Master can successfully absorb it, not only will it greatly enhance the strength of their physical body, but it will also subtly nourish their meridians. Its effects are even several times greater than those of the Earth Dragon Soul.
However, absorbing Long Yun was by no means an easy task.
They are suspended hundreds of meters in the air year-round, and the Dragon Valley Laws prohibit Soul Masters from using their Soul Power. Soul Masters below the Soul King level can only forcibly pull them by relying on their own aura, with an absurdly low success rate.
For Lu Xingchen, attracting Long Yun was a piece of cake.
The Silver Dragon bloodline is already among the top in the dragon race, and its elemental affinity has a natural appeal to Long Yun.
He merely gazed at the rapidly approaching, colorful clouds, his brows furrowed slightly, but his heart held no greed.
Like the Dragon Soul, the Dragon Cloud also contains pure dragon energy. Absorbing too much will only make one's bloodline more dragon-like, and when facing the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings, one will only be subject to passive bloodline suppression.
"Disperse!"
Lu Xingchen snorted softly, and a powerful spiritual force was released without warning, sweeping out like an invisible storm.
The surging dragon clouds seemed to have crashed into an impenetrable wall, instantly halting in mid-air. Then, under the impact of spiritual power, they shattered into countless tiny fragments of light, slowly dissipating into the air.
"continue."
Having banished the troublesome Long Yun, Lu Xingchen moved swiftly, teleporting once more into a dense forest ahead.
This forest is completely different from the outside world. The trees are all ancient trees with a dark black trunk that takes several people to encircle. The branches are twisted and gnarled like the claws of a dragon, and the leaves are dark gold, gleaming with a metallic luster under the light.
The air was filled with an even stronger dragon's might, and a deep dragon's roar could be faintly heard in the distance. The appeal that came from his bloodline became clearer and stronger—he knew that he was getting closer and closer to the burial place of the true dragon.
The silver dragon scales, refracted by the dappled light filtering through the leaves, shimmered with iridescent colors, as if inlaid with countless tiny gemstones.
The surrounding elemental forces became increasingly active. The wind element smoothed the branches in his path, the earth element quietly paved the way for the obstacles ahead, and the water element moistened the dry air, like a group of loyal servants, protecting him throughout the journey.
Deep within the forest, many low-level dragon souls lurk.
The half-meter-tall clawed dragon soul was crouching in the grass, its sharp claws and teeth gleaming coldly. But when it sensed the bloodline pressure emanating from Lu Xingchen, it instantly fled like a frightened mouse.
The armored dragon soul, covered in thick scales, was about to peek out when it was terrified by the fear emanating from the depths of its soul and shrank back, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Even the swollen-headed dragon soul, whose head was as hard as iron, which had been banging its head against the tree trunk to hone its defenses, stopped its actions and respectfully lay prostrate on the ground. Only after Lu Xingchen's figure disappeared into the distance did it dare to slowly raise its head.
As they ventured deeper into the forest, the trees grew taller and the dragon's might became increasingly intense.
The dragon souls that Lu Xingchen encountered were no longer low-level earth dragons, but gradually became more powerful beings.
A fire dragon breathing scorching heat.
-
The Red-Armored Earth Dragon has scales that resemble crimson armor.
The crimson dragon, its body enveloped in a light of annihilation—
Their cultivation levels rose steadily, and their bloodline purity far surpassed that of the surrounding earth dragons. However, in front of Lu Xingchen's silver dragon bloodline, which was almost at the level of a dragon king, they still had no choice but to retreat. Not one of them dared to take the initiative to provoke him, and they all gave way.
until----
"roar!"
The roar contained intense energy fluctuations, making the surrounding air feel scorching.
Lu Xingchen looked up and saw a huge dragon soul hovering in mid-air, over twenty meters tall, with a pair of wide, fiery wings spread behind it, the tips of which were burning with raging flames, and invisible waves of fire surrounding its body, as if even space itself was being scorched and distorted.
Its scales are dark red, as if they have been tempered by magma. Its long tail drags on the ground, and wherever it sweeps, the rocks are instantly charred. Its two front claws are sharp and gleam with a chilling light.
"Fire Dragon, a true dragon!"
Lu Xingchen understood; this was the first true dragon-level dragon soul he had encountered since entering Dragon Valley.
"Ang Yi—"
Despite the blazing dragon's intimidation, Lu Xingchen showed no fear and let out a high-pitched and majestic dragon roar.
The Silver Dragon bloodline activated, and a powerful silver aura instantly bloomed, revealing a solid, enormous silver dragon head that roared to the sky.
With a furious roar, the sound shook the surrounding area, and the dragon's roar echoed.
In the sky, the fiery dragon suddenly paused, its fiery wings trembling slightly, and the flames around it dimmed somewhat. The ferocity and heat in its eyes gradually faded, replaced by a sense of awe and apprehension.
The massive body of the Blazing Dragon slowly descended to the ground, retracting its fiery wings. It did not launch another attack, but simply stared at Lu Xingchen with a complex expression.
Among the dragon race, bloodline is paramount, and this is especially evident in Dragon Valley.
According to the fiery dragon's senses, Lu Xingchen's silver dragon bloodline was pure and powerful, clearly superior to its own, and already infinitely close to the level of a dragon king.
"Whoosh~"
Lu Xingchen glanced at it, then activated spatial teleportation, instantly appearing hundreds of meters away and rushing off into the distance.
The Fiery Dragon remained in place, silently watching his figure until the powerful aura of its bloodline completely dissipated. Only then did it slowly spread its wings, float up again, and guard this territory that belonged to it.
"The true dragon soul has appeared, so it seems we're almost there."
Following the call of his bloodline, Lu Xingchen continued to delve deeper.
In the rest of his journey, the number of dragon souls he encountered decreased significantly, but every single one of them was a true dragon soul.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex, which grew wings on its back and evolved into a true dragon.
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, its body crackling with lightning and its eyes gleaming with domineering power.
The Crimson Jade Dragon, wielding raging flames and radiating intense heat.
At this moment, the Silver Dragon bloodline demonstrated its unparalleled power. Although it could not completely subdue these proud true dragon souls, it was enough to eliminate their desire to attack, allowing Lu Xingchen to pass through their territory without any hindrance.
