Chapter 70
As for the age issue, Gu Xuan previously pretended to be fifteen when he was twelve, because if he were too young, the gap with Du Gu Yan would be too great, making him easily looked down upon, and other things could also happen.
That's why Gu Xuan forged his age.
Looking back now, forging his age was still correct; as long as they are together now and have been accepted, he can tell them the truth later, and by then it won't matter.
Du Gu Yan grabbed Gu Xuan's arm; since Gu Xuan wasn't wearing a shirt at the moment, only wrapping a blanket around his waist, the double dragon mark on the backs of his hands was naturally seen by Du Gu Yan.
Du Gu Yan stood to Gu Xuan's left, holding his left hand, so she was now curiously examining the red dragon pattern on the back of Gu Xuan's left hand.
"Little Xuan, what is this? I've never seen you have this on your hand before," Du Gu Yan said, raising Gu Xuan's left hand and asking doubtfully.
Gu Xuan looked over and saw Du Gu Yan examining the red dragon pattern on the back of his left hand; accurately speaking, it should be the brand of the Fire Dragon King.
And on his right hand there is also a blue dragon pattern, which is the brand of the Ice Dragon King.
Seeing Du Gu Yan bring this up, Gu Xuan's thoughts returned to when he was refining the immortal herbs inside the Binghuo Liangyi Yan.
Gu Xuan had just balanced the power of the two immortal herbs inside his body, and was about to fully refine them when he inexplicably sensed a faint spatial fluctuation.
Because his martial soul innately possesses the ability to control spatial attributes; although he currently only knows a little about spatial power, he has been following Gu Rong, so his understanding of spatial power is also not low.
Following this weak spatial fluctuation, Gu Xuan activated his martial soul, then felt the world spin; when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a special space.
This space has no visible end; beneath him lie two huge dragon corpses, each at least hundreds of li in size.
The two dragon corpses are red and blue respectively, exuding a terrifying aura, the absolute pressure from the dragon martial soul; strangely, both corpses were split from the skull all the way to the tail, completely cut apart.
The cut is extremely smooth, like a hot knife cutting butter, and atop that terrifying cut still emanates a terrifying slaughterous aura, preventing the mighty dragon corpses from healing.
Seeing this, Gu Xuan instantly understood what it was: weren't these the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King slain by the Asura God King? He had unintentionally touched the spatial barrier and entered the place where the ice and fire dragon kings are sealed.
While Gu Xuan was puzzled, two sonorous dragon roars sounded; he felt his bloodline power seemingly being drawn, and his martial soul unconsciously released.
Then a blue and a red huge dragon soul shot up from the dragon corpses below; two ferocious, domineering giant dragons opened their terrifying, huge eyes and stared fixedly at Gu Xuan.
To be honest, facing this situation, Gu Xuan dared not make the slightest move; although his spiritual power had entered here, his body was still being transformed in the Binghuo Liangyi Yan.
But Gu Xuan had a premonition that if he died here, his self inside the Binghuo Liangyi Yan would never be able to come back to life.
After a long while, before Gu Xuan could speak, a deep, resonant voice and a warm voice mingled with icy, bone-piercing chill echoed in his mind.
"I am the Fire Dragon King, one of the Nine Dragon Kings under the Dragon God."
"I am the Ice Dragon King, one of the Nine Dragon Kings under the Dragon God."
"Child, don't be afraid, we will not harm you," the Fire Dragon King continued.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan steadied his mind; since they had spoken, they likely wouldn't harm him, after all they were beings comparable to a first-rank god, unlikely to deceive a child. He stared blankly at the two dragon souls before him, then slowly said: "Respected Fire Dragon King, Ice Dragon King, junior's appearance here must be your doing, right?"
Seeing Gu Xuan remain unfazed, quickly calm his mind, and then ask them questions, a flicker of satisfaction flashed in the depths of both dragons' eyes.
Gu Xuan's temperament has already gained their approval.
Moreover, in their perception, Gu Xuan is only twelve years old, with soul power at rank thirty-three, but his spiritual power has already surpassed the fourth ring of Soul Ancestor, approaching Soul King level.
Although the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings don't know why this is, it is enough to prove this kid's extraordinary talent.
But they don't know that, as a transmigrator, Gu Xuan's spiritual power naturally far exceeds his peers; moreover, over the six years since awakening his martial soul he has taken many spiritual-enhancing supplements, so his spiritual power, like his physique, is constantly increasing.
Hearing Gu Xuan's words, the Ice Dragon King's voice sounded: "Child, you being able to come here is indeed due to our cause, but ultimately it's because of yourself."
"Oh?" Gu Xuan wondered.
The Fire Dragon King said: "Your martial soul is a mutant dragon martial soul, and moreover a completely new mutant dragon species, its quality having reached the true dragon level; besides the dragon bloodline, more importantly your martial soul possesses spatial power."
"That is precisely why we can, by this point, draw your spiritual form into this space."
Having received the explanation, Gu Xuan instantly understood; he had merely planned to eat two immortal herbs to get a little boost, but instead he encountered a much bigger cheat.
Looking at the attitudes of these two dragon kings, it surely isn't to kill him and then bring him into this space, right?
So Gu Xuan directly asked: "Then what is your purpose? You wouldn't just have brought me here for a day trip, would you?"
Upon saying that, the two dragon kings burst into laughter: "Good, good, dealing with a slippery kid like you is refreshing; no need to hide anything."
The Ice Dragon King said: "I and Yan Long originally followed the Dragon God in his campaigns across the world, finally ascending to the divine realm; but because the Dragon God lord was reckless yet immensely powerful, he was targeted by the Divine Realm Committee, and unwilling to submit to humanity, the Dragon God lord led our divine beast clan and the Divine Realm Committee into war."
"However, we had only just ascended, our territory not yet secured, our foundations unstable; the Dragon God lord alone occupied the three great god-kings, then was split apart, and the nine great marshals under the Dragon God died or were wounded."
"I and Yan Long were split in half by the Asura God King's Asura God Sword; although we relied on our strong origin to escape back to the Douluo Continent, we could not restore our bodies due to the Asura God power, and were finally sealed in this space."
"And the so-called Binghuo Liangyi Yan is formed because the space sealing us developed a crack, allowing our origin to leak out and form it."
The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King directly told Gu Xuan their ordeal and matters; this even surprised Gu Xuan himself.
After all, he hadn't shown anything yet, yet these two big fellows trusted him so readily? After hearing the deeds of the two dragon kings, Gu Xuan also gained some understanding of the earlier heaven-shaking battle between the human god and the beast god.
After the two dragon kings finished recounting their own ordeal and then stared at Gu Xuan, he knew this was about to move into the main topic.
