Chapter 106: Three Major Opportunities in Dragon Valley
Yu Tianlin was still confused about the "head Spirit Bone," so he asked, "Then how do I use it exactly?"
"That head Spirit Bone is the highest quality among the clan's 3 inherited Spirit Bones. It should have reached the 100,000 year level," Yu Mingfeng explained. "According to the research of the clan's seniors, once you absorb that head Spirit Bone, as long as your Spirit Power exceeds level 95, you can use the power of the head Spirit Bone to leave a spiritual imprint inside the divine weapon. That imprint can last for half a year."
"In other words, if you enter that small world with the blade, then within half a year you must fill the divine weapon with enough power. After that, when you slash with everything you have, you can trigger the spiritual imprint and return here, using the head Spirit Bone as a coordinate."
"So that's how it works." Yu Tianlin finally understood.
The Dragon Realm contained the remnant soul of the Dragon God, which served as a coordinate. That was why the Dragon Slayer Blade could cleave through space and connect to that place.
But if you wanted to leave Dragon Realm, there was no coordinate. If you tore space open blindly, you would only connect to that unfamiliar continent.
To solve this, the clan researched for generations and finally found a feasible method. They used the power of the head Spirit Bone to imprint a spiritual mark onto the Dragon Slayer Blade. That was equivalent to setting a coordinate on the Douluo Continent. When leaving Dragon Realm, the spatial passage would lock onto that coordinate and return near the head Spirit Bone.
That head Spirit Bone was one of the clan's 3 inherited Spirit Bones, and it was absorbed by his grandfather. In other words, if he returned, the spatial passage would open beside Yu Yuanzhen.
This was incredible.
Still, his father said the head Spirit Bone was at the 100,000 year level, but Yu Tianlin felt it had to be beyond that. People only treated 100,000 years as the peak because they believed nothing could surpass it.
But Dragon Realm was filled with the corpses of dragons that died in the Dragon God War. A battle between dragons and gods was not something ordinary dragons could even qualify for. If they were not at the god level, they probably would not be fit to stand on that battlefield at all.
So Yu Tianlin deduced that the head Spirit Bone had to be at the god level as well.
With that thought, he looked toward the old man seated at the head of the table. "Grandpa, can I take a look at that head Spirit Bone?"
Yu Yuanzhen stroked his beard and smiled. "Of course."
As soon as he spoke, Yu Yuanzhen activated the head Spirit Bone. In an instant, a golden helmet appeared, covering his head.
The moment it formed, it released a powerful golden radiance that made Yu Tianlin squint. Even through the light, he could still see 2 slightly twisted dragon horns on the helmet.
"Could that light be…" Yu Tianlin's heart shook. He already had a guess.
"That's right." Yu Yuanzhen said calmly. "According to the insights and speculations of every generation of clan leaders, this head Spirit Bone should come from the legendary Bright Holy Dragon. It contains extremely pure light attribute energy."
No wonder.
Yu Tianlin finally understood. He had been wondering what kind of head Spirit Bone could leave a spiritual imprint inside the Dragon Slayer Blade. But if it was the head Spirit Bone of the Bright Holy Dragon, then it made perfect sense.
After the Dragon God forged the Dragon Slayer Blade from his own dragon horn, he did not use it himself. He handed it to the Holy Dragon King of Light to enforce the law. The Holy Dragon King of Light was his direct descendant, so there was naturally a connection between him and the blade.
A divine level Spirit Bone with that kind of affinity being able to maintain a spiritual imprint in the Dragon Slayer Blade for half a year was not strange at all.
Thinking of divine level Spirit Bones, Yu Tianlin remembered something else.
If he remembered correctly, the center of the Dragon Realm was a dragon cemetery, filled with thousands of dragon corpses that had reached the divine level. Each corpse was accompanied by a divine level Spirit Bone. If he could obtain one, then…
Yu Tianlin was still lost in his fantasies when Yu Yuanzhen withdrew the head Spirit Bone, pulling him back to reality.
Yu Tianlin steadied himself and asked, "Dad, Grandpa, why did you choose me to go to that small world instead of someone else?"
Yu Yuanzhen answered simply, "Because you have innate full Spirit Power."
So that was the reason he was born with innate full Spirit Power.
Yu Mingfeng continued, "In that small world, there are 3 opportunities: Dragon Cloud, Dragon Soul, and Spirit Bone."
"The Spirit Bone depends entirely on luck. Ever since the third generation clan leader fully mastered the method of entering and leaving that small world, all the way until my father, the 18th generation clan leader, our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has not found a single Spirit Bone inside."
"That's why we say the Bright Holy Dragon Head Spirit Bone we obtained before was pure, unbelievable luck."
"Then there is Dragon Soul. Because Dragon Soul power is needed to charge the divine weapon, even if Dragon Souls are found, clan disciples barely have any chance to absorb them."
"Finally, there is Dragon Cloud."
"Dragon Cloud is a strange energy mass, like cloud or mist, that can be absorbed by Spirit Masters. But it floats hundreds of meters in the air, so you can't touch it. You can only draw it down on its own."
"However, Dragon Cloud has extremely high requirements. Under normal circumstances, it won't respond at all."
"The clan tested it for years and confirmed one thing. Only Spirit Masters with innate full Spirit Power can attract Dragon Cloud."
Innate Spirit Power represented the quality of a Martial Soul.
For example, they were all Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Souls, yet ordinary clansmen only had innate Spirit Power around level 7 or 8. Yu Tianlin had innate full Spirit Power. That meant his Martial Soul was purer and of higher quality.
Dragon Cloud only responding to innate full Spirit Power was likely tied to Martial Soul quality.
After his father explained it so clearly, Yu Tianlin finally understood.
There were 3 opportunities in Dragon Valley Small World. Among them, Spirit Bones were unreliable, and Dragon Souls were needed to charge the Dragon Slayer Blade. The true opportunity was only 1, Dragon Cloud.
Dragon Cloud only responded to Spirit Masters with innate full Spirit Power. That meant sending one in guaranteed they would gain something. At the very least, it would not be a loss.
That was why they chose him.
Even so, Yu Tianlin still had one question in his heart. "If it's only because of my innate full Spirit Power, then why were you both so excited when you found out I could fully transform into a dragon?"
Just as Yu Mingfeng was about to answer, Yu Yuanzhen spoke first. "Mingfeng only understands part of this matter. Let me explain it to you myself."
Yu Tianlin immediately turned his gaze to his grandfather.
Yu Yuanzhen was the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If anyone understood the clan's deepest secrets, it would be him.
