Chapter 1215 The Chicken Before the Egg and the Origin of the Dragon Clan

Regardless, Dahei and Erhei were both beastmen. This was their first time transforming into human form, so they had no idea what propriety, righteousness, or shame meant. Having been naked for tens of thousands of years, how could he sense anything amiss?

It's true that Lin Yi was disgusted, but Da Hei and Er Hei definitely didn't do it on purpose.

Secondly, Sanhei insisted on going with Lin Yi to protect him and prevent him from getting hurt.

The starting point was perfectly reasonable; Lin Yi shouldn't have scolded them or even attacked them for it.

You can't hit him, you can't scold him, and you can't leave him; it's no wonder he's so troublesome.

"Well, shall I make a suggestion?"

Old Man Gongshu doesn't have much of a relationship with the snake clan, but he came with Lin Yi, so he can be given some face.

Sanhei immediately nodded in agreement.

Lin Yi had no choice but to agree.

"The situation is very clear. Your snake clan considers Lin Yi to be your leader and future guide, and you are willing to protect Lin Yi's safety at any cost, right?"

The three men nodded in unison.

"What about you, Lin Yi? You're disgusted by those two bastards, Da Hei and Er Hei, so you don't want to travel with them, right?"

Lin Yi sighed, looking utterly hopeless, and silently affirmed the old man Gongshu's statement.

After receiving affirmation from both sides, the old man Gongshu patted Lin Yi on the shoulder.

"This is easy to resolve. You two can each compromise. Dahei and Erhei, you two reckless fools, don't follow us. Let Xiaohei come with us. Anyway, her strength isn't much different from yours. Lin Yi, don't refuse either. At least he's doing this for your own good."

Upon hearing this, the three black men immediately began to discuss it seriously. After a not-so-intense discussion, they finally agreed with the old man Gongshu's suggestion to let Xiao Hei go on the adventure with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi, too lazy to argue, could only accept the opportunity given to him by the ancient god.

Thinking about it carefully, bringing Xiao Hei along isn't such a bad thing. Her combat power is indeed not to be underestimated. At least when she's fully equipped, Lin Yi would have to put in a lot of effort to defeat her.

Three points later.

The giant, dark gray eagle carried Lin Yi and the other two away from planet 772.

On the eagle's back, Little Black sat cross-legged, its long, dark legs reflecting the sunlight in a way that was dazzling.

Having just transformed into human form, she wasn't quite used to her current body, and her fingers weren't as nimble.

At this moment, she was observing everything with great interest, even trying to pluck the giant eagle's feathers with her limp fingers.

Unfortunately, she couldn't pull it out at all; the giant eagle that the Divine River Song had transformed into was actually still the water of the Netherworld River.

"Sir, your big bird is quite strange. I can't even pluck its feathers."

"But these feathers feel very comfortable to touch."

The River Styx in the Nine Netherworld possesses an extreme cold that ordinary creatures cannot withstand.

Lin Yi had heard Wuzhiqi mention that some creatures actually enjoy the cold air.

At that time, Lin Yi didn't pay much attention, thinking that only a few dragons who were inclined to ice-attribute divine power would like the Nine Nether River.

Who would have thought that even cold-blooded animals like snakes would like this chill?

"Heh, don't underestimate this little black snake behind you. She's no ordinary snake. I can vaguely sense that, in terms of bloodline power alone, she's no less powerful than me."

what?
Wuzhiqi's voice echoed within Lin Yi's sea of ​​consciousness.

These words almost made Lin Yi's CPU burn out.

Strictly speaking, Wuzhiqi deserves the title of an ancient god. Otherwise, he wouldn't possess such a heaven-defying external artifact as the Divine River Song, and he wouldn't have been able to differentiate himself from powerful high-level gods like the Great Sage.

For an ancient deity like Wuzhiqi to give such an evaluation, one can imagine just how powerful Xiao Hei truly is.

"Let me ask you a question, kid. Which do you think came first, the chicken or the egg?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but scratch his head.

From a scientific perspective, especially from the perspective of evolutionary biology, the egg should have been the first thing in the world.

As a species of all living things, the chicken must have evolved from its ancestors through genetic variation.

The key mutation usually occurs in germ cells. Therefore, the first chicken to appear in the Three Realms and Six Paths must have hatched from an egg laid by a non-chicken ancestor.

This egg contains genetic mutations that allow the first chicken to hatch.

Bingo! After listening to Lin Yi's analysis, Wu Zhiqi snapped his fingers, confirming his statement.

"If I told you that the world's first dragon came about in the same way, or that the purest Yinglong bloodline in the world originated from a snake egg, what would you think?"

What? ! !
Lin Yi's brain felt like it had crashed for a moment.

The snake egg hatched into a dragon, and it was the Yinglong with the purest bloodline and the most powerful!

This is a lot of information.

"Don't be too surprised, kid. I've told you before, the Three Realms and Six Paths are vast and full of wonders. There are many outrageous things that you can't even imagine. Think about it carefully, what stages does an ordinary snake need to go through to cultivate into a dragon?"

Lin Yi had some knowledge of this.

The five stages are: snake, python, boa constrictor, jiao (a type of dragon), and dragon.

Yes, since you know that snakes can cultivate into dragons, is it possible that the snake with the purest bloodline, under the condition of genetic mutation, produced a snake egg that could hatch into an Yinglong?

To be precise, it laid a dragon egg? Awesome!
Lin Yi exclaimed, "Awesome!"

He truly never expected that the birth of Yinglong would have such an outrageous story.

"Brother, you're practically an expert on everything in the Three Realms! I'm truly impressed. Such explosive news must be the most sensational news in the Three Realms. By the way, why don't others know about this?" Upon hearing Lin Yi's question, Wuzhiqi couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Isn't it all just about saving face?

"You'll have to ask Ying Longcheng if he admits it or not. If you dared to bring this up in front of him when he was at his peak, guess what would happen?"

Dragons are an extremely proud species.

They look down on all living things in the world, even humans, and believe that they are the most perfect species in the world.

This applies to Yinglong as well.

He certainly knew his own origins, and he also knew whether his parents were dragons or snakes. However, one thing was certain: even if Wuzhiqi's statement was true, Yinglong would never admit it.

"Yinglong was the first dragon in the Three Realms and Six Paths. The very first one. Hundreds of years later, a second female dragon appeared, but it was not born of Yinglong's bloodline. At that time, everyone was very curious about how Yinglong was born. Many people thought of the chicken-and-egg problem."

"Back then, Yinglong was the number one fighter among the gods. His prestige was undeniable, and no one dared to speculate or verify it. When I first heard this statement, I was shocked and found it incredibly unbelievable. I even thought it was an exaggeration until I met your bodyguard, Xiao Hei."

Xiao Hei's divine power level has reached the top grade A. Without the support of any rare and precious materials, he has reached this level with only rich source power. In the Three Realms and Six Paths, which beast race would dare to say that they have such talent?

Aside from her divine power, her enormous size and scales that shimmered even more brightly than dragon scales further indicated that her bloodline was even stronger than that of the dragon race.

Is it an exaggeration to say that the snake race, with such talent, has combat power and bloodline superior to the dragon race?

Not at all excessive!
