Chapter 269: Leaving the Dragon Valley

All right, you are the last one. Once I take care of you, I can leave.

Tang Wulin patted the dragon bone in front of him and said with a smile.

This is the largest dragon bone in the Dragon Tomb; he deliberately left it to be buried last.

To bury this dragon bone, he dug a pit over a kilometer deep. It can be said that for a proper burial, he spent more time and effort on it than on the dozens of dragon bones before it.

At that moment, Tang Wulin's expression changed; he was surprised to discover that, before he could act, the dragon bone moved slightly on its own and rolled into the pit.

Tang Wulin couldn't help but laugh.

Although he didn't know the identity of the dragon bone's owner in life, it was clearly no ordinary person, to the extent that even after death it could control its own corpse to do this.

Tang Wulin was about to leave when he noticed a yellow dragon bone left on the ground.

He shouted, "Sir, you missed a piece up there."

As if answering him, yellow light condensed before him, quickly forming a huge dragon soul.

The dragon soul pointed at the dragon bone, then at Tang Wulin, with a sincere gaze.

Tang Wulin asked in surprise:

"Are you giving this dragon bone to me?"

The huge dragon soul nodded lightly, then turned into a stream of light that entered Tang Wulin's body together with the dragon bone on the ground.

Tang Wulin felt a extremely rich energy enter his body, stronger than all the dragon souls he had encountered before except the Dragon God's dragon soul; he quickly sat down to begin absorbing it.

After several days, Tang Wulin opened his eyes again and was surprised to find that his trunk bone had somehow turned yellow; judging by its aura, its power was in no way inferior to the other three Dragon King soul bones.

Clearly, this was also a Dragon King soul bone.

At this point, the huge pit had disappeared; if my guess is correct, he must have controlled the earth element while absorbing the soul bone and dragon soul to fill the pit himself.

Tang Wulin bowed half helplessly, half gratefully toward where the pit had been.

"Thank you for your help; then I'll be going."

Having said that, he turned around, about to summon the Water Fire Dragon King and leave, when a lazy voice sounded.

"Kid, wait a moment."

Hearing that voice, Tang Wulin's whole body jolted; he instinctively drew his Golden Dragon Spear and leapt far away, warily scanning his surroundings.

It's no wonder he overreacted; in this Dragon Valley there wasn't a single living thing that could speak human language—at most he could chat with plant-system soul beasts in the Life God Domain to relieve boredom—and this was the first time he had heard such a voice.

The voice sounded somewhat helpless.

"Don't be so afraid; I'm not some demon or monster. Can you tell me where those few Dragon King soul bones on your body and the power of the Golden Dragon King come from?"

Tang Wulin did not relax his guard.

"Who are you?"

The voice said lightly: "I am the Dragon God's eldest son, the Light Dragon King. Satisfied? Now speak."

Although his voice sounded frivolous, it conveyed an undeniable air of superiority.

Tang Wulin still didn't immediately believe his words; instead, he used his thoughts to confirm with the spirits in his arms whether what was said was true, then said:

"I'm not sure where the Golden Dragon King's power comes from either; I can only tell you where those few Dragon King soul bones come from..."

Afterward, he spent over ten minutes roughly explaining to the Light Dragon King the origins of those Dragon King soul bones.

After listening, the Light Dragon King fell into a long silence.

Tang Wulin waited a while, but seeing no response, he cautiously asked:

"Sir?"

"Oh." Hearing his voice, the Light Dragon King remembered that he was still here, and said: "Sorry, I got lost in thought."

His voice sounded somewhat playful.

"Do you know who the owner of that dragon bone you just buried was?"

Tang Wulin honestly shook his head.

The Light Dragon King chuckled.

"It's the Mountain Dragon King, which means you now have a full four Dragon King soul bones on your body."

……

Although he had anticipated this, when he heard the fact he still couldn't help but be stunned.

Not to mention four Dragon King soul bones; even four ordinary soul bones are not something ordinary people can come into contact with.

He never dreamed his luck could be this good. The Light Dragon King said playfully: "Do you know what I'm thinking right now?"

"What?"

Tang Wulin instinctively followed up.

The Light Dragon King burst out laughing, sounding very excited.

"I'm wondering what would happen if the dragon bones of all Seven Great Dragon Kings gathered together on your body!"

Saying that, a golden light suddenly rose from the ground and rushed onto Tang Wulin.

Again?

Feeling the surge of energy appearing again, Tang Wulin had no choice but to sit down once more to begin absorbing.

This time the absorption went unexpectedly fast; after only two hours, Tang Wulin opened his eyes again.

Amazingly, his eyes turned a brilliant gold.

At that moment, the Light Dragon King's voice sounded just in time.

"Now my skull has finished merging with you; with its help, your mind will remain clear forever, and in the future you will hardly ever be easily controlled by a destructive will."

"……Thank you, sir."

Tang Wulin quickly performed a salute.

The Light Dragon King said indifferently: "No need for that; what I want is for you to achieve results."

Achievements?

Tang Wulin asked in surprise.

"Hmm, achievements." The Light Dragon King solemnly repeated: "Just as I said earlier, I want you to absorb the dragon bones of the other dragon kings as well."

Tang Wulin said helplessly: "Senior, it's not as simple as just being able to do it..."

Being able to obtain five dragon bones now is already a stroke of heaven-defying fortune; who knows where the remaining dragon bones are.

However, beyond his expectations, the Light Dragon King said calmly: "I naturally won't have you do something without a basis. To be frank, I roughly know where Xiaohei and Xiaobai have hidden."

What?!

Tang Wulin's heart suddenly quickened.

He didn't know who Xiaohei and Xiaobai were, but from the context he could guess they were also two dragon kings.

Does the Light Dragon King actually know where they are?

The Light Dragon King sighed helplessly.

Ah, I also don't know why, but that girl Xiaohei just doesn't like me; instead, she gets along best with Xiaobai, whose temperament is the hardest to fathom. After learning that Father entrusted this dragon tomb to me, she left together with her sister Xiaobai. Based on my understanding of their personalities, they should be living in the most perilous place in the outside world.

The most perilous place...

Tang Wulin subconsciously thought of several dangerous places on the Douluo Continent.

"Hmm." The Light Dragon King replied, "Looking at your expression, you must have an idea, so there's nothing more I need to say. You may go."

Tang Wulin did not immediately set off, but instead asked:

Then, after I complete it, will I still be able to come back and see you?

Although the Water Fire Dragon King told him the entrance passage had collapsed, what if the Light Dragon King had a way?

The Light Dragon King fell silent for a moment, then said calmly: "If you can successfully find Xiaobai, perhaps there is a way."

After all, the Xiaobai he spoke of is none other than the renowned Space Dragon King who governs space.

However, if this human kid really encounters the clear-minded Xiaobai, there will likely be some interesting drama to watch.

After all, that girl's personality is widely recognized as the most difficult to handle among the several dragon kings.

Thinking of this, the Light Dragon King suddenly felt some anticipation for future events. To prevent Tang Wulin from asking further, he said: "Alright, that's enough for now. If you have anything else you want to ask me, hurry up and find Xiaobai and come back."

Having said that, he controlled the power of the Dragon Valley to open a spatial rift in the air, sucking Tang Wulin in.

Under this familiar, overpowering suction, Tang Wulin had no ability to resist whatsoever, and was simply sent out of the Dragon Valley.

In the instant before leaving the Dragon Valley, he seemed to hear the Light Dragon King whispering in his ear.

Beware the Silver Dragon King.

By the way, the bracelet of this book must be retrieved the next time I return. (End of chapter)
