Chapter 163

This aura was supreme and highest, evoking a trembling in the very instinct of his life.

Fear, dread, and suppression at the level of life itself.

For Huang Long, facing such a being, his bloodline instinct told him to submit, not to strike back.

This sensation, for Huang Long, he had never felt since his birth.

Or rather, the fear he had felt in his weakest childhood, during life-or-death crises, had never been this great.

At this moment, before Huang Long, this was no longer Jie Sect Luo Fu—it was a dragon race being, and moreover, the legendary supreme dragon.

Yes.

This was the information etched into Huang Long True Person's life instinct.

The dragon race, unlike other living beings, carried the power of bloodline within them; only those of dragon blood, upon reaching a certain stage of growth, would awaken the innate power of their bloodline.

Naturally.

Among the dragon race, bloodline ranks were insurmountable.

Generally, the stronger the bloodline, the greater the likelihood and opportunity to become a powerful being.

Thus, during the Era of Qilin, the stronger the bloodline, the greater the attention received, for they were the future and hope of the dragon race.

Of course, dragons with weak bloodlines still had a chance to become strong, but the overall probability was incomparably lower.

Moreover, when dragons fought among themselves,

dragons with strong bloodline exerted immense suppression over those with weak bloodline.

The greater the gap in bloodline, the greater the suppression.

Of course, this was only true during the era of hegemony of the dragon, phoenix, and qilin, when the dragon race was numerous and dominated the primordial lands.

The primordial lands were boundless; to nearly dominate them—even just one-third—was enough to demonstrate the dragon race's vast numbers.

Of course.

Now, the primordial lands are under the hegemony of the witch and demon races; the dragon race has long since exited the stage of history.

Almost all dragons with strong bloodline on the primordial lands have long vanished.

Otherwise, how could the dragon race have ever degenerated into mere Four Seas dragons beneath the Heavenly Court?

Who could have imagined that the dragon race was once one of the sovereigns of heaven and earth?

Huang Long True Person, naturally, was also a dragon, and a dragon with relatively strong bloodline.

Precisely because of this,

Huang Long had come to Mount Kunlun to become a disciple of the Chan Sect's Saint.

In the end, he succeeded, which made him confident in his bloodline; he believed himself different from other dragons.

But now, his confidence in his bloodline shattered instantly under Luo Fu's aura.

This bloodline suppression was unprecedented.

In his eyes,

the human Luo Fu had suddenly transformed into a supreme divine dragon, coiling in the void, its cold gaze fixed upon him.

This bloodline instinctual suppression made Huang Long tremble.

"Boom."

Huang Long instinctively knelt, lowering his head.

At this moment, not even to fight Luo Fu—just to raise a hand against him—the instinct of life warned him: do not strike.

The gap in bloodline between him and Luo Fu was too vast.

So vast that not even the faintest possibility of resistance remained.

For Huang Long, such bloodline suppression was something he had never felt before.

A bloodline instinct told him:

This dragon before him demanded the complete offering of oneself.

He was the supremest being of the dragon race.

"Ancestral Dragon…"

Huang Long True Person groaned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

This was the information conveyed by his bloodline.

This man before him was not human at all—he was the true Ancestral Dragon.

Though tales of the dragon, phoenix, and qilin have grown scarce in heaven and earth, information about the Ancestral Dragon still circulates.

After all, he was the former sovereign of heaven and earth.

As a dragon, Huang Long knew well the legends of the Ancestral Dragon.

Perhaps only the Ancestral Dragon could make his bloodline tremble to this extent.
