The massive cloud spun, making it impossible to see inside, but from within the cloud, the roar of a giant dragon could be faintly heard.
This cloud cluster was no ordinary one; it was shrouded in immortal energy, as if a strange law was protecting this place.
Based on Tian Xiezi's memories and the mark Mo Nian left for him, both pointed to this spot. Long Chen observed briefly and rushed into the cloud cluster.
"Whoosh!"
Just as he entered the cloud cluster, Long Chen felt as if he had been swept into a space-time passage. The roars of giant dragons filled his ears, waves of sound shattering the void fragments, piercing into people's ears and threatening to shatter their minds.
"Boom boom boom... Suddenly
, a giant flood dragon charged at Long Chen, its sharp claws slashing down from the air. Long Chen immediately felt a deadly threat sweeping through his body. If struck by those claws, Long Chen would be instantly shattered to pieces.
"Boom!" Suddenly,
a black bone blade slashed the claw, and the giant python was sliced in two, blood raining down everywhere.
Long Chen was shocked. This giant python was definitely above Tongming, yet it was killed in a single blow.
Long Chen knew this was a space-time illusion; this mist recorded fragments of history, and what he saw was merely a scene that had appeared before.
Although it was just a scene, the pressure and sound it generated could crush an ordinary fourth-step Tongming Realm expert, and even the power of reincarnation couldn't withstand it.
"Rumble... Explosions
echoed continuously in the void. Long Chen felt his body being torn apart, but his body was tough and unfazed by the force, so he didn't activate his defenses.
Without activating his defenses and using his body to feel that terrifying power, Long Chen's vision was extremely chaotic. He couldn't see the details of the battle, only the shattered corpses flying around.
There were dragon corpses and foreign warriors clad in black armor, wielding black bone blades. This was a bloody battle above the Underworld, with dragon blood staining the land red.
For some reason, Long Chen felt a strong murderous intent in his heart, aimed at those black-armored experts.
Long Chen didn't know if it was because he possessed the true dragon blood that he developed a fondness for the dragon clan and developed a shared hatred for the dragons.
"Whoosh."
Suddenly, the scene before his eyes vanished, all sounds fell silent, and Long Chen appeared in a desolate world, filled with endless bloody and decaying stench.
Looking around, Long Chen's heart couldn't help but race—bones, endless bones, stretching all the way to the ends of the world.
Each skeleton was like a mountain stretching thousands of miles—half buried in the earth, half in the clouds, looking truly shocking.
"Crack!"
Long Chen took a step forward, and suddenly there was a crisp sound beneath his feet—a section of dry bone beneath his feet was actually split open by his footsteps.
He didn't know what kind of bone this was, much larger than a house, yet it cracked beneath Long Chen's feet, looking extremely fragile.
Long Chen lowered his head, gently stroked the white bone, and muttered to himself:
"It's not the erosion of time, but rather the divine patterns within, which caused all the power to disappear, making it so fragile."
In front of Long Chen was a dragon bone, its head severed. He went to check the dragon's head and found it pierced by a sharp weapon, with the dragon crystal gone.
Similarly, the divine rune within his bones was also removed, leaving nothing valuable on his body.
A bit disappointed, but thinking about it, it was understandable. If there were treasures here, someone would have beaten them to it long ago.
"Mo Nian didn't leave any more marks. Either he didn't have the time to do so, or he simply didn't need to."
Long Chen sensed it for a moment, but didn't notice the mark left by Mo Nian, and began to cautiously run forward.
"Wolong Star Soul Grass"
— Long Chen suddenly discovered a strange herb inside a dragon bone, covered in scale-like patterns.
"The land of the Wolong is where the Star Soul possesses. It is the Living Spirit Herb, the divine medicine for controlling dragons." Long Chen was excited, and memories of the Wolong Star Soul Grass surfaced in his mind.
"It seems this giant dragon was extremely powerful in life. After death, its energy was not fully extracted, and the power left behind actually gave birth to the Wolong Star Soul Grass."
This Wolong Star Soul Grass is an extremely rare spiritual herb. Legend has it that it can only be born within the Dragon Tomb. It is a rare medicine born from the soul of a giant dragon that does not perish after death, combined with the power of the stars.
The Wolong Star Soul Grass does not exist on the Tianwu Continent, not even in the ancient mythological texts of Tianwu Continent. Long Chen recognized it as originating from the Dan Emperor's memories.
Once the sap of this Wolong Star Soul Grass is absorbed, dragons can regard it as one of its kind, preventing attacks from dragon clan experts. By getting close, one can control the divine dragon.
However, the term 'dragon' here refers to a true dragon, not a mixed dragon. Dragons with impure bloodlines may be able to draw close to humans, but that doesn't mean they won't attack. Dragons often kill each other, let alone humans.
Long Chen was excited because he knew that this Wolong Star Soul Grass could be used to refine Dragon Body Star Soul Pills.
The Dragon Body Star Soul Pill is a pill that can transform the body's constitution, making it infinitely close to the dragon body and granting the power of a dragon.
Now, the Dragonblood Warrior absorbed the essence blood of the Gold-Devouring Evil Dragon and practiced the Dragon Blood Body Refining Technique, making his body several times stronger than before, becoming a true Dragonblood Warrior.
However, compared to their true essence and blood bodies, their physical bodies are vastly different, because human bodies are fundamentally different from dragon bodies.
However, the Dragon Body Star Soul Pill can transform a person's constitution, fully activating the power of dragon blood to forge the body. If combined with the Dragon Blood Body Tempering Technique, Long Chen believes it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
The reason Long Chen's physical body is so powerful is that it was forged from the essence blood of the Azure Dragon. If the Dragon Blood warriors possess the Dragon Body Star Soul Pill, they can also reforge their bodies just like Long Chen.
However, this kind of recasting the body causes it to tear and repair continuously, causing immense pain.
"I wonder if this Wolong Star Soul Grass can be cultivated in the chaotic space?" Long Chen felt a bit uneasy.
You have to know, the Wolong Star Soul Grass can only live inside the corpse of a giant dragon, relying on the remaining energy left after the dragon's death. It won't be long after being separated from the corpse before it withers.
Long Chen carefully transplanted the Wolong Star Soul Grass into the chaotic space, noticing that the grass showed no signs of withering; instead, it became even more spirited.
"The Chaos Pearl is my greatest treasure—it's incredibly powerful." Long Chen almost shouted in excitement. The power of the Chaos Pearl was simply extraordinary—it could even grow the Wolong Star Soul Grass.
Long Chen carefully separated several segments of roots from the Wolong Star Soul Grass and found that these roots would continue to grow, meaning they could reproduce on a large scale.
However, the growth cycle of Wolong Star Soul Grass is too long; to mature large areas requires a long time.
"I need to find a way to get some corpses," Long Chen thought to himself.
Without a powerful corpse, let alone the Wolong Star Soul Grass, evenThe Tianlin Demon Tree was also growing very slowly.
Long Chen continued to speed forward, his path covered in massive skeletons but no longer found the Wolong Star Soul Grass. Clearly, the conditions for forming the Wolong Star Soul Grass were too harsh, and Long Chen's acquisition of this herb was purely lucky.
Along the way, bones were everywhere. At first, there were only dragon bones, but gradually some skeletons of powerful alien figures were discovered.
The bones of these alien powerhouses were almost indistinguishable from those of humans, except their bones were pitch black as ink, as hard as steel.
"Not even sparing our own people."
Long Chen examined several foreign powerhouses' corpses in succession, discovering wounds pierced by sharp energy, all on their chests. If you count their location, they should be at the heart.
The bones of those alien powerhouses had lost all their divine markings, becoming extremely fragile and breaking at the slightest touch.
"Should we use the Soul-Chasing Technique to see if we can capture some space-time fragments?" Long Chen slowly formed hand seals with both hands.
"Are you crazy?" Deliberately getting caught up in karma—are you reckless with your life? Suddenly, Dragonbone Xie Yue cursed:
"What's so interesting about this? These black ghosts are the Devouring Heaven Black Armor Army, a group of races that advance through devouring, controlling a devouring law, somewhat similar to our Dark Evil Dragon Clan's devouring ability. "
Devouring Heaven Black Armor Army?" What is that? How come I've never heard of it before? Long Chen asked.
"There are so many things you haven't heard of. Let me tell you, don't look at things you shouldn't see. You've been caught up in too much karma.
If you don't want to be hunted by the Devouring Heaven Black Armor Army in the next tribulation, then don't bother. Who knows if there are any undead rituals among them? If you happen to see them, you might not survive the next tribulation and be cursed to death. "Dragon Bone Xie Yue said irritably.
Clearly, Dragonbone Evil Moon knew this foreign powerhouse very well and seemed to be somewhat wary of Long Chen from prying into their secrets.
You have to understand, with Long Chen's soul power, he could capture the lingering aura and laws of space, and work backwards. It wouldn't be difficult to see some fragments of time and space, but that would taint karma.
This was different from what he saw when he entered. So-called karma was actively provoked, and those passively seen and touched generally wouldn't be affected.
"Stop with those useless things. This is the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest. Only a Dragon King-level expert can establish such a nest and command the submission of ten thousand dragons.
I quickly went deeper to check. I seemed to sense a powerful aura, but it was hidden and not very obvious.
But one thing is certain: there is definitely treasure here. Don't waste time, hurry and go. "Dragon Bone Xie Yue said impatiently.
Since Dragonbone Xie Yue had spoken, Long Chen simply stopped worrying about everything and sped forward.
Beyond the endless dry bones, a colossal figure appeared in the void ahead, like a star floating above the sky.
"Dragon Nest, get in quickly." Dragonbone Xie Yue shouted.
Long Chen sped at full speed. As he neared the dragon nest, he felt its terror even more. Endless dragon might unleashed, blood flow within his body quickened, and dragon scales began to slowly appear.
"Control your aura. There's someone in the dragon's nest—don't let anyone find out." Dragonbone Xie Yue shouted.
Long Chen slowly approached the Dragon Nest and finally noticed that it was actually a spherical exquisite world, surrounded by countless huge holes, resembling a maze.
Following the guidance of the Dragon Bone Evil Moon, Long Chen entered a cave. But just as he entered, the world suddenly changed—he entered a space. Before Long Chen could get a clear look at his surroundings, a black bone blade, carrying a fierce aura, slashed down at him.
