Chapter 702: The Miserable Purple-Gold Divine Dragon

"Damn it! Awoo... get lost, you bastard!"

The Purple-Gold Divine Dragon roared repeatedly.

It discovered that the Dragon Essence within its body was flowing away rapidly; a massive amount of Dragon Essence was surging toward the Jade Ruyi, which was like a bottomless pit, and the speed was only increasing.

The Purple-Gold Divine Dragon was terrified and hurriedly shook its claws, wanting to fling the Jade Ruyi away.

But the Jade Ruyi seemed to be stuck to him.

No matter how he shook, he could not fling the Jade Ruyi off.

As the Dragon Essence drained rapidly, the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon's body also shrank rapidly. He now realized the severity of the problem and stared at the Jade Ruyi, crying out in despair:

"Awoo, what kind of ghost thing are you? Could you be a legendary forbidden object?"

"Damn it, let me go quickly..."

"I beg you, please stop..."

"Almighty forbidden existence, this little dragon knows its mistake, please spare me..."

Yet no matter how he begged, the Jade Ruyi did not respond at all. Instead, the speed of its whale-like devouring grew even faster, leaving the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon completely helpless, and he could only wait in despair.

In fact, at this moment, the Ancient God also recognized the Jade Ruyi in mid-air; it was the very treasure he had once fought another Ancient God for, but he had not expected it to display such divine might tonight.

Thinking of this, he also felt a secret palpitation.

Fortunately, fortunately, the Jade Ruyi had not shown such a situation back then, otherwise, he and that Ancient God would likely have ended up like the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon, only able to watch in despair as they were drained dry.

Time passed, and soon an hour had gone by.

The previously hundred-zhang-long Purple-Gold Divine Dragon had been drained dry and was now only about a meter long, looking just like a purple-gold five-legged lizard.

If it were not for the fact that it was a direct descendant of the Dragon Clan royalty, it would have already died long ago after losing all its Dragon Essence.

At this moment, the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon was beyond tears. Being sealed for thousands of years was one thing, but he had not expected that just after seeing the light of day again, he would be drained dry by a terrifying Jade Ruyi, returning to his infancy in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, he felt that dragon life was meaningless.

………

The next day.

Bamboo Garden.

Yao Zhenxing hurried over to report: "Principal, we have succeeded. After using the Spirit Pearl, the test subject successfully guided Qi into the body, and we observed him for five days without any abnormalities. It is just that, limited by the test subject's spirit, he can only cultivate for one hour each day. However, if combined with a Pill or a Magic Crystal Core for cultivation, the effect would be even better."

Yin Qi nodded slightly: "Since the experiment is going smoothly, find a time to release the news."

Yao Zhen nodded and continued: "Also, we have all begun to sense that the Spirit Qi concentration in the Free City is continuously increasing. Is this because the Principal has set up a Sun-Moon Gathering Spirit Array?"

As the Spirit Qi concentration in the city continued to rise, even Fifth Tier cultivators could clearly sense it.

Yin Qi nodded and said: "Yes."

"That's great!"

Yao Zhen said excitedly; the higher the Spirit Qi concentration, the faster their cultivation speed would be.

……

Soon, a sensational piece of news spread from Shenfeng Academy, quickly shaking the entire city.

Then the entire continent was stirred.

"A Spirit Pearl, there is actually such a Dharma Treasure in the world that can help people guide Qi into the body and easily step onto the path of cultivation!"

"The way of Artifact Refining is truly profound; this is a genius design."

"Hahaha, good, good, I can finally cultivate from now on, wuwu, I am so excited."

"Nonsense, this is simply nonsense. If all the people in the world can cultivate, wouldn't the continent be in chaos from now on? Boycott, we must boycott, and go to Shenfeng Academy to protest."

"Our human realm is already lacking in Spirit Qi; if the whole population cultivates, that would be disastrous."

……

With the upcoming launch of the Spirit Pearl, some were excited, while naturally, others were angry.

Especially the Qi Diguo.

Thus, they united with the Five Great Sacred Lands, the Ten Great Clans, and the Ming Cult to approach Shenfeng Academy, hoping that Shenfeng Academy would not sell the Spirit Pearl, or at least control the sales quantity.

If everyone cultivated, it would only end in everyone dying together. However, in the end, they were persuaded by Shenfeng Academy, because Shenfeng Academy stated that it would make public the Sun-Moon Gathering Spirit Array and the method for refining Dharma Treasures that stabilize Magic Crystal Core energy output.

In this way, the Five Great Sacred Lands, the Ten Great Clans, and the Ming Cult would no longer have to worry about the Spirit Qi problem.

As for the Qi Diguo, Shenfeng Academy promised to increase the proportion of high-level cultivation resources supplied to them; as long as their strength was strong enough, they could stabilize the domestic situation.

After being persuaded by Shenfeng Academy, the major forces turned to scramble for the one million Spirit Pearls.

However, in the end, Shenfeng Academy only agreed to give them five hundred thousand, and the other five hundred thousand would be sold to the public.

……

Free City.

West City.

"Eh, that is Chen Nan, didn't he go to the Death Forbidden Land?"

"Why is it only Chen Nan, where are the others?"

Please... you.... bookmark 6... 9... novel....!

"Everyone look, what is on Chen Nan's shoulder? It looks like a dragon?"

……

Chen Nan's appearance caused a sensation throughout the city.

Counting the time, the ten great young experts had been heading to the Death Forbidden Land for about ten days. Because of this, all parties were secretly feeling uneasy and were still discussing whether to send people to investigate and Jieyin.

As it turned out, only Chen Nan had returned.

So someone stepped forward and asked: "Chen Nan, what happened at the Death Forbidden Land? Why did only you return?"

"That's right, and is that on your shoulder a dragon, or a lizard?"

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon had originally been lying listlessly on Chen Nan's shoulder, but upon hearing that someone actually doubted he was a lizard, he was instantly enraged.

He raised his head and cursed: "You're the lizard, your whole family is lizards. Open your dog eyes wide and look, this great master is a Purple Gold Divine Dragon, the emperor among the Dragon Clan."

"Ah, it can actually talk!"

"Heavens, could he really be a Purple Gold Divine Dragon? He just looks a bit small, could he be a newborn?"

"Chen Nan's luck is just too good. That Divine Dragon at Shenfeng Academy is close to him, and now he has actually brought back a young Purple Gold Divine Dragon."

"Chen Nan, ten million gold coins, sell it to me."

The people on the road were in an uproar, discussing it heatedly.

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon was enraged once again; it was one thing to call him a young dragon, but someone actually wanted to buy him.

Ten million gold coins, who are you looking down on?

Chen Nan hurriedly pinched the Purple Gold Divine Dragon's mouth and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, this is not a Purple Gold Divine Dragon, it is just a rare purple-gold lizard, everyone don't be so surprised. Also, regarding the matter of the Death Forbidden Land, pay attention to the announcement from Shenfeng Academy later."

As he spoke, he leaped and rushed out of the crowd, running toward Shenfeng Academy.

On the way.

"Huff, huff."

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon panted heavily and cursed: "Damn brat, do you want to suffocate this great dragon master?"

Chen Nan threatened: "I told you before, don't talk in front of people, be careful of being caught and made into soup."

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon rolled his eyes: "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? This great dragon master is a Purple Gold Divine Dragon; even if my dragon essence is completely lost, I am not something that ordinary mortal fire can harm."

Chen Nan snorted coldly: "What about Alchemy?"

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon shuddered, then said with disdain: "Alchemy? Is there still anyone who knows that stuff nowadays? Are you trying to trick this great dragon master?"

Chen Nan mocked: "Frog in a well, looking at the sky from the bottom of the well. I can tell you this, in this Free City, as long as one is a cultivator, there is no one who doesn't understand Alchemy, and of course, that includes me."

"Hahaha, you're killing this great dragon master with laughter, just you, and the cultivators here?"

The Purple Gold Divine Dragon laughed loudly.

Alchemy, such a high-level thing, there weren't many who knew it even thousands of years ago. (End of this chapter)
