Chapter 219: 【True Dragon is Unique】

Great Sage Ganlun's pupils shrank, and he had some speculation in his heart. Could this also be a son of the Dragon Emperor?

Only existences at the level of the Emperor's son, who have seen Quasi-Emperors and accompanied enlighteners all year round, could be so unscrupulous and scold a Great Sage as they pleased.

"Bloodline is not everything." Great Sage Ganlun took a deep breath and retorted: "There is no lack of geniuses in the human world."

"That's because the bloodline is not strong enough. The strongest of your Ancient Clans, who is revered as the supreme god Undying Emperor, isn't he a descendant of the Phoenix Clan?"

Lin Xian said indifferently, standing with his hands behind his back, leisurely: "Five-Colored Divine Phoenix, Primordial Ten Fierce, Immortal King descendants—these are the true immortal spirits, not belonging to the human world, but bloodlines of the Immortal World."

"Who... who exactly are you?" Great Sage Ganlun's eyes were extremely solemn, looking at the Black Emperor, then at Gai Gai Jiuyou, feeling his scalp tingle.

The Undying Emperor is a bloodline of the Immortal World—is this secret true or false? If it is true, why do they know it?

Could it be that this dog is really the Emperor's son? But how can a Five-Colored Divine Phoenix give birth to a dog?!

For a time, Great Sage Ganlun's emotions were complex, with endless questions. If it were anyone else, he would have captured them for interrogation long ago, but the existence of Gai Gai Jiuyou made him extremely wary.

He had a bad premonition that even if he held an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon, he might not be able to beat this Quasi-Emperor.

"I already said, you are not qualified. A Great Sage also wants to listen to immortal secrets?"

Lin Xian stood with his hands behind his back, indifferently: "Let the Ancient Emperor's daughter come, I want to see the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor."

"The Ancient Emperor sat down in the Primordial era..." Great Sage Ganlun said in a deep voice, holding the Ten Thousand Dragon Bell extremely tightly, with strands of purple energy rising.

"So I said, you are not qualified."

Lin Xian sneered, turned to look at the direction of the Primordial Ancient Mine, and said calmly: "Do you think you know her father better than the Ten Thousand Dragon Woman?"

Great Sage Ganlun was speechless for a moment. He couldn't say that he knew the Ancient Emperor better than the Ancient Emperor's daughter.

Their lineage originated from the eldest son of the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor and had passed through I don't know how many generations. The Ancient Emperor didn't even recognize this descendant, so how could he compare to the Dragon Emperor's own daughter.

"Or do you think I am not qualified to see the Dragon Woman?"

Lin Xian turned back suddenly, roared, and dragon roars and chanting sounded, undulating, as if penetrating the ages of time and space. The Ten Fierce Treasure Art was displayed vividly at this moment.

Even if it wasn't the flawless True Dragon treasure art, just one of the scattered hands was a genuine True Dragon unique skill.

If one traces the source, the Ten Fierce were not native creatures of the Primordial Ancient World. They also had their figures in the Immortal Domain, suspected to come from a more ancient world, and had a great origin with the Primordial True Explanation.

Even the True Dragon treasure art was not created by the True Dragon Immortal King of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but a kind of ancient inheritance that allowed a True Dragon at the Quasi-Immortal King realm to fight an Immortal King and become one of the Ten Fierce.

Furthermore, among the Ten Fiends, the Nine Nether Abyss has a progenitor who was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor; even the Corpse Immortal Emperor, who created the Original True Explanation, mastered the Ten Fiends' precious arts, so its origins are extremely grand.

No one knows if there were True Dragons at the Dao Ancestor level in the more ancient years, in that world above the heavens, at the end of the Boundary Sea.

The dragon roar was clear, accompanied by strands of immortal energy rising into the sky. The True Dragon Undying Medicine emitted an intimate sound, actively winding around Lin Xian and circling, actually also emitting dragon roars.

"True Dragon medicine, how could it be here?"

Great Sage Ganlun was shocked, suddenly remembering a legend: Emperors of the past all had Immortal Medicine following them. Some found the Immortal Medicine after attaining enlightenment, and some had the Immortal Medicine follow them automatically before attaining enlightenment.

Lin Xian was wrapped in dragon energy, ethereal like an immortal, and with the dusty temperament of the Swallowing Heaven Demon Art, at this moment he really looked like a true immortal spirit.

Not only him, but the Holy Prince also stepped forward, emitting his own racial aura, as if the Fighting Holy Emperor who feared neither heaven nor earth had returned, looking down on the past and future, fearing nothing.

Ye Fan followed suit, his golden blood energy surging, like a Buddha with a sixteen-foot golden body, and like a god ruling the nine heavens.

"Another heaven's pride at the Emperor's son level. This is the legendary Undying Golden Body."

Great Sage Ganlun watched with fear and scalp tingling. These young Emperor's sons didn't have a high realm now, but if they were given a few hundred years, the universe would belong to their era in the future.

The big black dog also put green onions in its nose to pretend to be an elephant, releasing the aura of the Great Emperor Wu Shi, standing with hands behind its back, quite pretentious: "The Heavenly Dao has no beginning and no end, pay respects."

Great Sage Ganlun's mouth twitched, and he fell silent. What kind of world is this, even a dog's aura is so extraordinary, with the demeanor of an Emperor's son, even stronger than when he was young.

Could it be that this is really the Emperor's son?

The aura of the Great Emperor Wu Shi was shocking, but it was a bit different from the supreme god of the Primordial era, making Great Sage Ganlun half-believe and half-doubt, coupled with a Gai Gai Jiuyou watching like a tiger in the side, looking at the Ten Thousand Dragon Bell in his hand, bringing him great pressure.

"Guests are guests, please enter the Dragon Nest, I will go invite the Little Ancestor to emerge."

Great Sage Ganlun took a deep breath, made two-handed preparations, on one hand arranged for hospitality, and on the other hand let several Dragon Sages take the heaven's prides of the clan, ready to run away at any time.

Lin Xian said indifferently, with an indescribable detachment, as if he were truly an Immortal Domain True Dragon.

Making Great Sage Ganlun's tendons jump. He had once had this posture when facing the lower-level species of flood dragons and fish dragons, full of superiority.

"Let's go." Gai Gai Jiuyou patted Great Sage Ganlun's shoulder lightly, just said indifferently, but scared the Ancient Clan Great Sage into breaking out in cold sweat.

Because he didn't sense Gai Gai Jiuyou approaching at all. At such a close distance, if this Quasi-Emperor had killing intent, he wouldn't even be able to be on guard or urge the Ten Thousand Dragon Bell.

Deep in the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, in a hall guarded by a corner of the Ancient Emperor Array, a huge Divine Source sank, sealing a dragon woman of peerless elegance, purple mist floating, figure graceful, skin white as snow.

She slowly opened her eyes, which were the color of purple diamonds, ethereal and divine, the small horns on her head like purple jade, flashing strange immortal light, making people want to touch them.

This is a purple dragon, or rather, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest is all purple dragon species, originating from the ancestor Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor.

"Little Ancestor."

Great Sage Ganlun bowed respectfully. This biological youngest daughter of the Ancient Emperor, although not the patriarch now, had an incomparably lofty status.

"Why did you wake me up? Is the Immortal Road about to open?" The Dragon Woman's voice was delicate and pleasant.

Great Sage Ganlun gave a bitter smile and told the Dragon Woman everything, making this Ancient Emperor's own daughter stunned.

"Ancient Emperor's son, and more than one..."

The Dragon Woman murmured, puzzled: "But there was only one Dragon Emperor in the Primordial era, and I haven't heard of other dragon species attaining enlightenment. Could it be the descendants of the Heavenly Venerables of the Mythological Age?"

"Perhaps from a more ancient era." Great Sage Ganlun said faintly, suddenly remembering Lin Xian's True Dragon temperament, and the intimacy of the Undying Medicine, a trace of incredible thought was born in his heart.

"A more ancient era!"

The Dragon Woman's eyes showed a trace of divine light. She is different from the Holy Prince, who is an illiterate. She actually followed the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor for many years, accompanied the Ancient Emperor, and knew many secrets.

Before the Desolate Ancient era was the Primordial era, and before that was the Mythological era. The first Venerable of the Mythological era was the Tribulation Crossing Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun; it was he who organized the Five Great Secret Realms and perfected the current cultivation methods, making him worthy of being called a Dao Ancestor.

But before mythology, there seemed to be different systems. It is rumored that there was a Heavenly Emperor in the Chaotic Ancient era, and even an Immortal Dynasty.

"It is rumored that in the most ancient era, there were immortals." The Dragon Woman said softly, the Divine Source made a crackling sound, she broke the seal and descended into the human world.

This sentence shocked Great Sage Ganlun, and he hurriedly asked: "Immortals, aren't they all in the Immortal Domain?"

"Not necessarily." The Dragon Woman shook her head, her eyes showing confusion, and murmured: "This sentence was said by my father. He said that not becoming an immortal is not because his realm is not enough, but because this world has a problem."

"So, he wants to go to the Immortal Domain to become an immortal."

Walking to the realm of an enlightener, the Great Universe basically has no secrets for Ancient Emperors. As long as they trace it patiently, they will eventually find some traces of the Immortal Dao and finally reach a conclusion.

This great universe is flawed, which is why one cannot become an immortal; this is the consensus of all Supremes throughout the ages.

That is why they sealed themselves in forbidden zones and waited through the ages, desiring to break into the Immortal Road and enter another world.

Only a small number of people, for various reasons, stumbled onto the Red Dust Immortal Road and lived out life after life.

Yet before reaching the end, no one knows whether the Red Dust Immortal Road is correct or the Immortal Road is correct.

This is the difficult problem that has plagued the Zhe Tian great universe and all living beings throughout the ages.

It is not merely a question of one person becoming an immortal, but the predicament of the severed Immortal Road; who exactly is correct?

Centered on this question, eras have shifted and epochs have changed; Emperors have used every possible means, brewing one catastrophe of longevity after another.

All for the sake of pursuing that one answer!

"Dare I ask the heavens, are there immortals?" the Dragon Maiden asked with a lingering tone.

Lin Xian, standing opposite her with his hands behind his back, smiled slightly and said: "Immortals naturally exist. Not only are there immortals, but True Dragons of the same level as immortals also exist."

"Are you speaking of yourself?" the Dragon Maiden smiled softly, though her gaze fell upon the True Dragon Medicine on Lin Xian's shoulder, and she said with a hint of melancholy: "It once followed my father, and now it has taken a fancy to you."

"No, I am speaking of him." Lin Xian pointed at the self-amusing Undying True Dragon Medicine and said indifferently: "He was once an immortal, and also a True Dragon."

"Once?"

The Wan Longnv was puzzled. Undying medicines grant longevity, and throughout the ages, there have been constant speculations about immortal medicines; there is no lack of people who hypothesize that these are immortal spirits from the Immortal Domain who have descended to the mortal world.

Therefore, she was not surprised that Lin Xian said the True Dragon Medicine was an immortal and a True Dragon.

It was just the word "once" that left the Dragon Maiden confused, and she couldn't help but ask: "Is he not one now?"

"Naturally not. Nowadays, he is neither an immortal nor a True Dragon; he is just an Undying Medicine."

"The universe is flawed, and True Immortals do not exist in the world."

Lin Xian sighed; this is the difference in the grand environment.

In the Immortal Ancient era, the past-self Lin Xian could eat a Flat Peach fruit and prove his Dao as a Human Immortal, achieving eternal life.

In the Dharma-Ending era, even with an unblemished Undying Medicine, he could at most extend his life by one generation.

"If True Immortals do not exist in the world, then what about True Dragons?"

The Wan Longnv keenly captured the loophole in Lin Xian's words, and a trace of inquiry and curiosity appeared in her purple eyes.

She had once asked the Wan Longhuang this question, asking if he was the legendary True Dragon, but her father only smiled, rubbed her head, and gave no answer.

"Immortals can achieve longevity, whereas 'True Dragon' is a title."

Lin Xian smiled slightly and said: "Among all the dragon-kind competitions in the world, only one dragon can emerge victorious and obtain the name of True Dragon. It belongs to the strongest of the Dragon race; it is not a realm."

"There is only one True Dragon?" the Wan Longnv said in surprise: "Then was my father also a True Dragon?"

"In one era, there is only one True Dragon. This has nothing to do with realm, but with combat power."

Lin Xian said indifferently: "In the Primordial era, the Wan Longhuang was naturally a True Dragon. In the Desolate Ancient era, there was a snow rabbit that shed its mortal form and became a dragon, known as the Demon Emperor; he was also a True Dragon. Because they were in different eras, the True Dragon is unique!"

"If they were in the same era, if one cannot be the strongest, then even an Immortal King cannot be called a True Dragon."

"The dragon is not only a biological creature, but also an extremely high-level life form; many creatures can choose to evolve toward it."

"In the Immortal Ancient era, there was a Dragon-race Immortal King and another Dragon-race Immortal King who had a dispute over the evolutionary path, which led to a great war."

"The final victor became the True Dragon Immortal King, while the loser, even though they were an Immortal King, could only be called the second in the world."

"Since then, all subsequent paths of becoming a dragon have evolved toward the lineage of the True Dragon Immortal King!"

The Wan Longnv was silent for a long time, digesting the massive amount of information. Her eyes, looking at Lin Xian, were complex, and she tentatively asked: "Are you a descendant of the True Dragon, or an immortal spirit?"

Lin Xian smiled without answering, acting as a riddle-maker, and left leisurely while holding the True Dragon Medicine.

The Wan Longnv remained in place, lost in thought for a long time, until the arrival of Great Sage Gan Lun brought her back to her senses.

"Little Ancestor, who do you think he is?" Great Sage Gan Lun weighed his words and asked tentatively.

"He does not seem like a creature of the mortal world."

The Wan Longnv had a strange look in her eyes; she shook her head and said: "Let's observe further. We will decide after my father wakes up."

"Father... Ancestral Emperor!"

Great Sage Gan Lun was extremely excited. Looking toward the direction of the Primordial Ancient Mine, he said excitedly: "Is His Majesty still alive?"

In the Primordial era, Supremes of various races fled into the ancient mines to dominate the Primordial order; this was a convention.

Those holding the Imperial Order could enter the ancient mines to discuss matters without being killed by the forbidden zones, because the people inside were their ancestors.

It was just that the Wan Longhuang, for the sake of the Immortal Road, chose to hibernate and sleep, ignoring external affairs. The Wan Long Chao had called out several times to no avail, and they couldn't help but suspect whether the Ancient Emperor had fallen in the passage of time.

"In a few days, I will go to the Primordial Ancient Mine to pay a visit."

The Wan Longnv was somewhat distracted and sighed softly: "Father, if you are alive, why don't you come to see me?"

"Little Ancestor, if the Ancient Emperor..." Great Sage Gan Lun's expression was solemn, and he said somewhat nervously: "The Primordial Ancient Mine is not a kind place."

"That dragon descendant will also go with me." The Wan Longnv's expression was calm as she stated some of Lin Xian's conditions.

For example, the Wan Long Chao must hand over the Human Demon. This Primordial human powerhouse knows the Tai Yin Immortal Scripture and the Tai Yang Immortal Scripture; these are the two great mother scriptures of the human race, and their significance is profound.
