Two Realms: A giant of immortal martial arts emerges from low Wu Gan
Chapter 672 Ancestral Dragon Bloodline?
This pitch-black stone tablet seemed to be formed from countless thick, impenetrable darkness.
In the darkness, there are many great roads that evolve within them.
A powerful suction force emanated from inside the stone tablet.
All the power in the entire space seemed to freeze, subtly drawn to the void.
This is the core of the Spirit-Guiding Land, the central hub of the Blood and Flesh Furnace Array!
Several figures were already waiting on the open ground in front of the stone tablet.
Their auras were all incredibly deep and terrifying, with the weakest being at the mid-stage of the Demon Venerable realm. The two elders at the head of the group had unfathomable auras; they were the terrifying beings who had made a fleeting appearance that night. One of them coldly swept his gaze over the newly arrived prodigies.
The figure of Huangya silently landed in front of the stone tablet, standing alongside those unfathomable beings.
With a flick of his wrist, a uniquely shaped stone mirror appeared in his hand.
This mirror is neither gold nor jade; it has a dark bronze hue, and its edges are carved with ancient totems that are no longer recognizable. The mirror surface ripples like water, exuding a primitive and wild aura.
The moment the stone mirror appeared, Jiang Shu's heart skipped a beat, and a warning from the depths of his soul struck him like a needle prick!
"This mirror is named 'Seeking the Source'."
The dry, hoarse sound from the desolate cliffs rang out again, echoing across the vast, deathly silent cave plain.
"It allows one to see into the depths of one's bloodline and trace back to one's ancestral roots."
"You shall step forward one by one and drip your blood from your fingertips into the mirror. Those with strong bloodlines will witness extraordinary phenomena, which will also serve as proof of your qualifications."
"Those with pure bloodlines will be rewarded."
His words were calm, yet they made Jiang Shu's heart tighten.
Compared to humans.
The demon race values bloodlines the most.
Bloodline almost entirely determines the upper and lower limits of a person's cultivation throughout their life, as well as the race they belong to.
Almost all the powerful beings in the demon race throughout history have possessed the strongest bloodlines.
Even those who rise from humble beginnings to become powerful individuals have forcibly improved or even changed their bloodline through various opportunities and great techniques.
Even within the same bloodline, there are different levels of distinction. The purer the bloodline and the closer it is to the progenitor, the better the talent and the brighter the future.
Without exception, the progenitors of some powerful races like the demon race were all at the highest level of the Demon Lord realm.
Bloodline examination is used to detect the purity of bloodlines.
Moreover, it uses the Dao artifact "Source Seeking," so there will be absolutely no errors.
This is not a simple screening of qualifications; it is a thorough verification of identity before the branding and resonance are established.
The high-ranking members of the demon race, especially old monsters like Huangya, are extremely vigilant about any unexpected events.
The rewards mentioned in the desolate words should also be true.
I just don't know what kind of treasures were bestowed as a reward.
After all, those who can come here, although they are at the Demon Lord level, are all the pride of their clans, and they have come into contact with more than ordinary Demon Venerables.
The thought only flashed through Jiang Shu's mind for a moment.
At this moment, he had no time to think too much.
Ahead, several powerful demon lords were stationed.
All his unusual behavior will be noticed.
Although his Dragon Transformation Technique originated from his own Dragon Appearance Dao, it was later imitated through the Soul Dao and concealed by the true dragon essence blood he extracted.
But ultimately, I am still human. I wonder if I can deceive this demonic artifact?
He didn't turn to look at anyone, but he could clearly feel an invisible, cold divine thought that had already quietly spread out like a net, covering the entire area.
Those unfathomable late-stage demon lords did not leave. They remained like cold stone sculptures, their gazes silently locked onto every young figure approaching the stone mirror.
Now that things have come to this, there is no turning back.
Fortunately, he arrived here with his trump card: his ability to travel between two worlds.
Even if all else fails, he can still return to the Star Ruins Realm.
"I'll come first!"
The red-haired youth from the Phoenix Clan spoke proudly, stepping out from the crowd and becoming the first to stand before the desolate cliff.
He is a leading figure of the Phoenix Clan in modern times, with pure blood and full of confidence.
He extended his index finger, which was covered with fine flame patterns, and with a burst of energy, a drop of blood, like a molten red diamond and containing the essence of extreme fire, fell onto the rippling mirror surface.
hum!
Suddenly, the surface of the stone mirror flashed red light, as if burning stars had been thrown into it, and the ripples in the mirror instantly turned into boiling golden-red flames.
At the center of the flames, a phantom of a fiery phoenix, its wings outstretched as if about to take flight, with an elegant yet majestic posture, clearly emerged, stretching its neck and letting out a long cry that seemed to pierce through a lens.
The surrounding temperature suddenly soared, and the bloodline power of other members of the Phoenix Clan in the area seemed to be activated as well, with faint light appearing.
"Not bad, the bloodline is pure, it has triggered the original ancestral shadow, and there are already signs of reversion to the ancestral state."
The other old man behind Huangya nodded slightly, his tone carrying a hint of approval.
The red-haired youth smiled arrogantly and stepped aside.
Then, the silver-haired youth from the Kunpeng clan stepped forward.
His blood dripped down, and the mirror instantly darkened, as if transforming into a bottomless void.
In the void, the phantom of a giant roc, its back to the blue sky and its wings like clouds hanging from the sky, appeared. Each flap of its wings caused the space to hum, and an aura that could devour all things spread out.
"The shadow of Kunpeng is naturally compatible with the Great Dao of Space, and is benevolent."
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of an elderly demon lord who was skilled in the Great Dao of Space.
After the Great Man of the True Roar tribe dripped blood, the mirror trembled violently, and blood-red light shot into the sky.
A terrifying phantom of a colossal beast, towering to the heavens and roaring across the starry river, appeared in the mirror. Its ferocious aura caused several nearby prodigies with weaker bloodlines to turn pale and involuntarily take a step back.
Elites from various ethnic groups stepped forward, and for a time, strange phenomena appeared in the mirror.
There are colossal beasts that control thunder, alien creatures that spew lava, and strange life forms that coexist with ancient trees and vines...
The light of the bloodline varied in intensity, and the phenomena differed in size and shape, but all of them triggered different degrees of reaction from the stone mirror. Huangya and the others remained calm, their eyes sharp as eagles, clearly carefully discerning any possible abnormal fluctuations.
As the most powerful race, the dragons naturally had to be the last to arrive. In fact, the phoenixes were also meant to be, but this race was naturally flamboyant and liked to show off, so they took the lead.
Ao Hai took a deep breath and strode forward.
He was a direct descendant of the dragon clan, of noble blood. The dragon blood he forced out was golden with a hint of purple, exuding inner majesty, and dripped into the stone mirror. The mirror surface suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light, and the scene within surged wildly, like a raging sea that never ceased to churn. At the bottom of the deep sea, the phantom of a giant dragon, its body covered with scales as deep as night and seemingly containing endless starlight, slowly emerged.
This giant dragon has an ancient and majestic form, which is significantly different from the dragons of the present world. Its body is winding and seems to be able to traverse countless worlds. When its eyes open and close, it reveals a cold will that looks down on all worlds and disregards reincarnation.
An overwhelming sense of pressure spread through the mirror, even causing a ripple to appear in the eyes of those old monsters in the late stage of the Demon Lord realm who had been expressionless.
"Ancestor Dragon!"
An old woman in a tattered Taoist robe, who had never spoken before, suddenly uttered two words in a hoarse voice, a rare complex emotion appearing on her withered face.
"Although it is only a trace of the mark, it proves that his bloodline is ancient and his potential is enormous."
There was one more thing she didn't say: if we're talking about bloodline potential alone, Ao Hai is the strongest among everyone present, even surpassing the young man from the Phoenix Clan.
"Ancestor Dragon!"
Many of the demon race's prodigies exclaimed in surprise.
The reason why the dragon race is so powerful lies fundamentally in the bloodline of the ancestral dragon.
The ancestral dragon of that time was said to be an existence that was extremely close to that of an immortal.
Having even a trace of the Ancestral Dragon's bloodline means there's a possibility of approaching that realm!
Even the arrogant Phoenix Clan looked at Ao Hai with a solemn expression.
The rivalry between the dragon and the phoenix is not just a legend. The dragon and phoenix clans have fought for countless years. They thought they had a chance in this life, but it seems that the time is not yet right.
Ao Hai himself seemed startled by this strange phenomenon, but soon a great sense of pride welled up within him. He bowed respectfully and withdrew.
In the dragon clan's group, it was Jiang Shu's turn.
Countless gazes instantly focused on Jiang Shu, who was in disguise as Golden Horn. There was curiosity, scrutiny, and even more so, Feng Xiao's undisguised schadenfreude and contempt.
Jiang Shu appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was operating his soul power to the extreme. The World Tree sapling swayed, casting a clear light to protect its spiritual core from being probed deeper by the ancient mirror.
He originally planned to drip the real Golden Horn's essence blood onto the demon clan when they weren't paying attention, but their eyes and divine senses were fixed on Jiang Shu, leaving him no room to maneuver.
So cautious?
Jiang Shu remained expressionless, forcing a drop of blood from between his fingers and letting it drip onto the mirror.
When the water is poured on it, the stone mirror freezes instantly.
The ripples on the mirror's surface, which had been constantly moving and reflecting the eerie light of the abyss dome's ruins, were now frozen solid.
An indescribable stillness, accompanied by a chilling heaviness, instantly enveloped the space, even causing the ceaseless rotation of the stellar remains to momentarily stagnate.
All eyes were fixed on the mirror, and a sharp glint flashed in Huangya's murky eyes!
The old monsters behind him, who looked like stone sculptures, suddenly raised their eyelids, their sharp, almost tangible gazes piercing through space and locking onto Jiang Shu and the strange stone mirror in front of him. An invisible pressure pressed down like a mountain.
The silence lasted only a moment.
boom!
It was as if a volcano that had been dormant for millions of years suddenly erupted, or as if a god who had been sleeping for cosmic ages opened his eyes.
The light emitted by the stone mirror was no longer a single color, but a terrifyingly chaotic color.
Initially, it was an extremely dark and thick substance that seemed to devour all light. Then, from the depths of that extreme darkness, a chaotic and clear light burst forth, as if the world had been created!
The chaotic light, like a giant pillar of light, pierced through the abyss's underground space in an instant, shooting straight up to the dome above, which was upside down and hung with countless star fragments!
The appearance of this beam of light seemed to ignite a fuse in this space.
The entire "Land of Spirit Guiding" instantly erupted in excitement!
Click!
The massive stellar debris that had been floating stably overhead began to spin and collide wildly, as if under an invisible command.
The violent gravitational chaos tore and ripped apart, and terrifying energy turbulence rose up out of thin air like a real storm, sweeping in all directions, causing the entire abyss space to tremble violently.
The avenues on the huge, black stone tablet all radiated endless light.
The stone tablet itself was shaking violently.
"what!"
"what happened?!"
"Stability, damn spatial turbulence!"
Those prodigies who had just undergone the bloodline test immediately changed their expressions.
The spatial chaos here is far more terrifying than that of the Vast Wilderness Domain and the Demon Domain.
Each tear in space is like a powerful force on a great road.
In other words, each of them is a prodigy among the demon race.
Ordinary demon lords, faced with such a predicament, would at best be injured, and at worst be trapped in spatial chaos, their lives hanging by a thread.
In an instant, streams of demonic power surged around them, and the power of the Great Dao was activated, urging the illusory star coffins on their bodies to resist the sudden and terrifying spatial storm.
One by one, the top geniuses hid and fled in this chaotic space, with no time to pay attention to anything else.
At this moment, Huangya's body, which was as withered as a dead tree, trembled violently.
For the first time, his cloudy eyes, which seemed to have seen through countless years, were filled with unparalleled shock, and even boundless ecstasy.
The same was true of the several unfathomable late-stage demon lords beside him.
Their gazes were fixed on the stone mirror that was bursting with a terrifying pillar of chaotic light, and on the figure in front of the mirror who stood like a rock amidst the spatial turbulence, covered in dark gold scales!
Within the mirror, at the core of the chaotic pillar of light, the scene was frantically churning and reassembling.
Countless fragmented, scattered, and ancient images flashed rapidly in the light screen: the light and shadow of the birth and death of stars, the ancient and chaotic air currents, dark gold scales as large as mountains, a broken and huge skeleton, and even a pair of deep and indifferent ancient dragon eyes that seemed to contain the birth and death of the universe and the reincarnation of all realms.
The reflection in those eyes seemed to pierce through the ancient mirror, through time and space, indifferently glancing at the world outside the mirror!
The meteorite platform was deathly silent.
The chaotic beam of light erupting from the stone mirror seemed to pierce through the entire abyss sky. The chaotic spatial currents, the shattered remnants of ancient stars, and the twisted energy beams were all mixed together, forming a destructive storm.
Even a powerful figure like Huang Ya, who was close to the peak of the Demon Lord realm, had his facial muscles twitching involuntarily. His withered hands raised and lowered several times, as if he wanted to touch the chaotic pillar of light that pierced through the void, but was afraid of profaning something.
At the center of the pillar of light, the ancient and indifferent phantom of a dragon's eye slowly faded away, and the violent energy fluctuations finally began to subside.
However, the core of the Fallen Star Abyss Spirit-Attracting Land is no longer as stable as it once was.
The ground trembled slightly, and the air still held a chilling lingering energy, a primordial aura from ancient times, heavy enough to crush ordinary demons.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The space was silent.
Huang Ya's hoarse laughter grew louder and louder, his gaze fixed firmly on Jiang Shu.
It was as if they wanted to see right through Jiang Shu's skin, flesh, bones, and muscles.
"I have seen the phoenix's true fire illuminate the sky, I have seen the Kunpeng's wings cleave the void, I have seen the true Hou's roar shatter stars... but I have never... never seen such pure and profound dragon blood, so close to the 'source'!"
"Young man, which branch of the Dragon Clan do you belong to?!" (End of Chapter)
