Chapter 720: Reincarnation
A day and a night were soon to pass, and the scales of advantage were tilting toward Yin Qi.
Clang!
The Divine Blade and the Dragon Wing Flowing Gold Halberd collided once more, shattering a vast expanse of the void; the entire Sea of Blood shuddered violently, kicking up endless waves of blood.
Ruisi Man took advantage of the momentum to retreat and did not strike again.
The Dragon Wing Flowing Gold Halberd in his hand also transformed back into a Dragon.
Yin Qi silently put away the Divine Blade; he could clearly sense that Ruisi Man's life force was rapidly fading away.
Ruisi Man's eyes were bright, filled with nothing but ease.
He cupped his hands toward Yin Qi and said, "It has been a long time since I felt this exhilarated. Thank you for fulfilling this. But with your comprehension of the laws, I fear you are not a person of this era. Yet, I have no impression of you whatsoever."
Yin Qi merely smiled faintly and did not answer.
Seeing that Yin Qi did not reply, Ruisi Man did not continue to press the matter.
At this moment, the Dragon beneath his feet looked toward Baby Dragon, staring fixedly, and sighed: "Why are you always so muddled? When will you ever be able to truly cultivate properly? You are a genius of my Dragon Clan, the only one with the hope of surpassing the Dragon Emperor, yet you are always so... maverick."
"What did you say?"
Baby Dragon looked at the Dragon in confusion, blinking its large eyes.
"It seems you have truly forgotten me."
The Dragon was somewhat angry, yet also somewhat forlorn: "Forget it, the past has turned to emptiness; being able to see you again today is also a happy thing. I only hope you will not be so muddled in the future. Let me ignite your Dragon soul so you may find yourself again as soon as possible!"
"Awoo..."
The Dragon let out a final roar, and two rays of holy soul light shot from its eyes, charging into Baby Dragon's round, large eyes.
Divine Light appeared across the sky.
Ruisi Man and the Dragon dissipated completely!
Baby Dragon's entire body burned with golden heavenly fire; it closed its eyes and muttered to itself: "Amitabha... Lansikai, I am sorry... please do not die, I will compensate you with the Tian Long Bao Zang..."
The Dragon soul was ignited, and it finally recalled some memories from the past.
Chen Nan and the Purple Gold Divine Dragon were both stunned.
They had not expected that this always muddled Baby Dragon was actually a genius of the Dragon Clan whom even a Dragon admired, and it was said to have the hope of surpassing the Dragon Emperor; its past life seemed to have a rather grand origin.
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon beat its chest and stamped its feet: "This shouldn't be, this shouldn't be! This little bean's past life was actually a Dragon. Heavens, how is this handsome, dashing, and suave Master Dragon supposed to conduct himself?"
It wanted to shut itself away.
Xiao Fenghuang was Fenghuang Tiannv, Baby Dragon's past life was also a Dragon, Chen Nan's origins were grand, and Yin Qi went without saying; in the end, was he just an Ordinary Purple Gold Divine Dragon?
Chen Nan opened his mouth and turned to ask Dugu Xiaoxuan: "Goddess, do you know about Baby Dragon's past life?"
Dugu Xiaoxuan said thoughtfully: "If my guess is correct, it should be the Great Virtue Great Might Dragon. I have never met him, but I have heard of his reputation; he is no weaker than me."
Hiss.
Chen Nan and the Purple Gold Divine Dragon both gasped.
Xiao Fenghuang called out in admiration: "Wow, Brother Little Dragon is so amazing."
"Lansikai... I am sorry... please do not go... I will return the Tian Long Bao Zang to you..."
Baby Dragon kept its eyes closed, muttering continuously.
The golden heavenly fire on its body was brilliant and bright; it was its dormant battle soul burning fiercely, not far from awakening.
Once the battle soul awakened, it would soon charge toward the Dragon realm.
Seeing this, Chen Nan had no choice but to open his Inner Heaven and Earth and take Baby Dragon inside to avoid its transformation being disturbed.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dugu Xiaoxuan waved her hand, bringing Chen Nan and the Purple Gold Divine Dragon to Yin Qi's side.
She smiled sweetly: "Truly magnificent; to resist a Dragon Knight with merely the God Emperor Peak Stage, I suspect this has never happened since ancient times."
Yin Qi smiled faintly: "Isn't this what you wanted to see? Did you see anything?"
"I couldn't see anything; you hide too deeply. But I believe that one day, I will uncover your background."
Dugu Xiaoxuan waved her fist, looking somewhat mischievous.
"Mm, good luck."
Yin Qi was noncommittal and said: "Let us continue on."………
Five days later.
Yin Qi and the others finally crossed the Sea of Blood and saw from afar, standing on the shore of the Sea of Blood, a primitive giant rock inscribed with eight large characters: The Bitter Sea is boundless, turn back and find the shore.
"We have already crossed the Bitter Sea, what shore is there to turn back to."
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon said disdainfully.
Chen Nan walked straight up and opened his Inner Heaven and Earth to collect the giant rock.
It was another fragment of the ancient shield.
Now he had collected four pieces, forming the better part of a complete stone guardian.
Following this, the group continued their journey.
They passed through the Youming Gui Di, Shenlong Gu, and a primeval forest, finally arriving at a vast grassland.
Please... collect... the... book... on... 6... 9...!
This grassland was boundless; although the grass was lush, it gave people a feeling of being completely devoid of life. There was not even a single wild animal; it was deathly still and silent.
"What a strange place. It is clearly full of vitality, yet it makes one feel completely devoid of life."
Chen Nan said in a deep voice, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings.
"Let us keep moving."
Yin Qi's eyes were filled with Qing mist as he observed this world in detail.
Three days later.
No sooner had they walked out of the great grassland than they saw vast white mist rising ahead, blocking the path forward.
This white mist resembled both Immortal Qi and deathly aura, giving one an extremely absurd feeling; the auras of life and death were intertwined, as if it were a buffer zone where life and death were balanced.
"Goddess, where is this?"
Chen Nan asked, looking toward Dugu Xiaoxuan.
He now knew that Dugu Xiaoxuan's father was Dugu Baitian, and Dugu Baitian was one of the founders of the Small Six Paths, having even visited the Small Six Paths in the past.
Dugu Xiaoxuan shook her head and said: "The Small Six Paths is half-destroyed and has changed greatly from how it was initially, so I cannot be certain where this is either. However, I feel as though there is a heavy treasure ahead."
Swish!
No sooner had Dugu Xiaoxuan finished speaking than a purple-gold radiance charged into the white mist.
There was no need to think to know it was the purple-gold Divine Dragon.
Chen Nan cursed speechlessly: "This dead loach really hasn't changed his ways; he dares to barge in here too?"
The terrain here was constantly changing; if they did not stay together, it would be very easy to get separated.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly quickened his pace.
Yet before they had even walked into the white mist, they saw the purple-gold Divine Dragon rush back out, grinning sheepishly: "It was purely an instinctive reaction, but I thought about it—if there is a heavy treasure, we should share it."
Xiao Fenghuang exposed him: "Uncle Rascal Dragon, you were clearly afraid."
The purple-gold Divine Dragon felt like vomiting blood.
This unlucky child, see through it but don't say it out loud.
Yin Qi shook his head and walked into the white mist side-by-side with Dugu Xiaoxuan.
The vast white mist obscured one's vision.
After walking for over a hundred miles, an invisible force blocked their path.
The auras of life and death here were vibrating violently; one moment it made one feel as if they were in the Immortal Court, bathed in a spring breeze, and the next it made one feel as if they were in Hell, gloomy and terrifying.
Passing through this special region, Yin Qi and the others finally arrived before a cave entrance.
The light within this cave entrance flickered uncertainly; whenever light flashed, surging vitality would pour out, but once the light vanished, deathly aura would churn.
Inside the cave entrance stood a Stone Tablet as tall as a person, bright as a mirror.
Vaguely, one could see the two vigorous and ancient characters for 'Reincarnation' appearing upon it. (End of this chapter)
