Dragon Blooded War God

Long Chen was deep in grief, biting his lip so hard that it bled. Ling Xi thrust her sword at him, but he did not dodge it.

He was very familiar with the Ling Xi Sword. When he first met her, she was trapped in it, and he was the one who had rescued her from the sword and gave her a physical body using the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. Long Chen suddenly recalled every detail of their time together.

From the trials and tribulations since the day they met, to the stubbornness to remain together while they were pursued by the royal family of the Cangyang Kingdom, to their final separation. Every detail was deeply carved into his mind. The Ling Xi in his heart was kind, adorable, innocent, and loved deeply. She was willing to give up everything for his sake. This made Long Chen understand that Ling Xi would never act like this!

“No! You’re not Ling Xi!” When the sword was about to pierce his throat, Long Chen burst into a furious roar with a change in expression and threw a punch at her!

Boom!

When Long Chen punched her abdomen, her face contorted in pain. Both the sense of touch in his fist and Ling Xi’s expression of pain … It was all so real. Long Chen even felt a twinge of regret. He was a man, so he couldn’t hit his woman no matter what!

But when he punched Ling Xi, his surroundings shattered. Ling Xi soon turned into white light dots and disappeared from his sight. To his horror, he realized that his fingers were clutching his own neck, and they were squeezing hard, almost to the point of suffocating himself!

“How could this be!?” Long Chen felt strength return to his body. He stood up with a whoosh and looked around in a daze. Ling Xi had long disappeared, and only the fat Little Cat remained by his side.

Little Cat looked at him mockingly and scolded, “You’re useless! You were about to strangle yourself to death for a woman. Thank goodness you woke up in the end, or I would not have saved you!”

“I can’t be bothered to tell you. I’m going to retrieve my little Dream Demon!” said Little Cat, whose translucent body suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, then left. Long Chen looked in the direction where he had gone and saw a black, furry cat suddenly dive to hide in the shadows in front.

“Dream Demon!”

Long Chen suddenly recalled what had happened. Didn’t the Dream Demon run off just now? Why is it still here? After collecting his thoughts, he was drenched in cold sweat because he understood that he had experienced the effects of the Dream Demon’s magic.

What a terrifying spell! That was impressive. Everything was so real. Even Xiao Xi was exactly the same as the real her. If I had not woken up in the end, and Little Cat was not with me, that bastard would have killed me!

Long Chen was terrified by that thought.

However, he was also thankful to the Dream Demon for giving him a chance to see Ling Xi again. Everything was so real that Long Chen almost wanted to be immersed in that world again.

After a long time, he sighed and thought tiredly, My mind is still not strong enough. The Dream Demon likely uses a person’s memories to create dream scenarios. It knew that the softest spot in my heart was Ling Xi. That was why I was tricked. I even strangled myself …

At least he had survived the ordeal.

Long Chen now deeply understood how terrifying it was. It was no wonder Little Cat spoke so highly of it. Although it was a low-level beast, it had magical powers.

Long Chen now knew why so many people had been killed by its magic in this city. Even the Control technique of the Soul Swallowing Gaze had many more limitations than this.

He looked in the direction the Dream Demon had gone. The moment a mysterious character like Little Cat acted, the Dream Demon had to surrender no matter how strong it was. At this point, the tiny Dream Demon had already collapsed on the ground in the dark corner with a white mist wrapped around it. The tiny beast had fainted. Little Cat would be the one controlling its body when it woke up.

Little Cat was indeed quite terrifying.

After Little Cat took control of the Dream Demon, the hallucinating old man also recovered. He had made many cuts on his own body, but thankfully, they were not fatal. After he woke up, he looked around in a daze and muttered, “Where’s Hu Yidao? Where’s Hu Yidao? I almost killed him. Where has he gone?”

He suddenly saw Long Chen and furrowed his brows. When he realized Long Chen was not his archnemesis, the fierceness in his expression faded slightly and he asked, “Hey, kid, have you seen a big, tall man? Bald, has one eye!”

The Dream Demon’s magic was so powerful that the old man was still focused on the dream despite having woken up. Long Chen shook his head in exasperation and said, “Do you know that there’s a terrifying beast here? It can cast hallucinatory magic to create a world that immerses a person in desire and hatred so people start killing others or themselves in it.”

The old man shuddered, then he looked around carefully. He seemed to recall something, and it looked like he was also aware of the Dream Demon and seen other victims. Then he understood what had happened. It was merely a dream that invoked strong feelings of longing. That was why it was difficult to wake up.

Killing an enemy was the strongest satisfaction one could ever feel, and it was also a dream this old man had chased his whole life.

The old man shook his head tiredly and sighed, then he looked at Long Chen. “It’s been more than twenty years. Hu Yidao has been dead for more than twenty years, and I am old. I can’t believe I could be muddled by something like that. I really have gotten old. Young man, were you the one who chased away that terrifying beast?”

Long Chen said, “I don’t know what happened either. After I came here, that beast, which looked like a black cat, ran off.”

“No matter what, I still need to thank you. Everyone here is probably dead already. I didn’t expect an old man like me to be lucky and survive. I’ve gotten used to moving alone. After I saw all the dead people here, I wanted to merge my Ancient Token with theirs to make it turn golden. In the end, my Ancient Token turned gold, but I almost died.”

Long Chen suddenly recalled that his Ancient Token had not turned golden yet.

The old man took out many Universe Pouches and walked over to Long Chen, then he said, “Young man, although they say there are no emotions in the Ancient Graveyard, only killing, you saved me today. I picked these from the other corpses, and I haven’t had the time to look inside them. There are probably many treasures inside. They’re all yours.”

Long Chen declined hurriedly. “You were the one who retrieved them. I cannot accept this. Then again, I didn’t really help. The demonic beast fled on its own. I didn’t do anything.”

To be honest, those people’s Universe Pouches would not have anything Long Chen needed. The old man was working alone and had a high chance of dying here; he was only at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage too. It was more suitable for him to keep them.

“Young man, don’t be all formal now. You’re only at the Third Earthly Martial Stage, right? Without resources, you will never improve. And you’re alone too. It’s already a miracle that a young man like you without experience could live this long in the Ancient Graveyard.”

Long Chen suddenly recalled something and said, “Why don’t we do this? I need a spiritual herb of the intermediate King-tier and above, one that can be used to nourish the soul. Can I search for it in these Universe Pouches?”

“Is that so … Alright.” Since Long Chen had declined the items, the old man did not insist. He generously placed all the Universe Pouches in front of Long Chen, who counted more than ten of them.

He did not beat around the bush and directly searched them. After a while, Long Chen gave a grin of satisfaction because he found an intermediate King-tier spiritual herb.

It was called the Rainbow Lingzhi Mushroom.

This was a Lingzhi that shone with rainbow light and emitted a thick, medicinal fragrance. Long Chen felt refreshed when he smelled it.

This Rainbow Lingzhi should be able to heal my Martial Soul, but I’m not sure how much it will heal. Long Chen was very pleased with this find.

After he put it in his Primordial Realm, he stood up.

“Young man, are you only taking one Rainbow Lingzhi? Don’t you need these King Crystals, spiritual herbs, divine weapons, and scriptures?” the old man asked with surprise. There were many things in the Universe Pouches that tempted even the old man, yet Long Chen did not even show any expression when he saw them. How strong was the young man’s discipline?

“I don’t need them. This Rainbow Lingzhi is enough. I’m giving the rest of it back to you,” Long Chen said with a nod and determination in his eyes.

“Alright!” said the old man, then he put the items away. Long Chen was very mysterious, and he found him to be a strange person. He suddenly thought of something and took out seven Ancient Tokens. He gave them to Long Chen and said, “Here are seven Ancient Tokens. I’m guessing your Ancient Token isn’t golden yet. These are all for you. I think that will do. In the Ancient Graveyard, the hardest thing is to turn your Ancient Token golden. I got lucky this time; not only did I turn my Ancient Token golden, I also retrieved many items. Few people could get this lucky in the Ancient Graveyard …” the old man remarked wistfully.

“Have you been in the Wood District all this time? May I ask where the largest city in the Wood District is?” asked Long Chen.
