Chapter 220 - 220 Senior Long Zhan
220 Senior Long Zhan
“Why do you have to do this? You can’t hold on for much longer.”
A strange laughter could be heard, mixed with a bit of ill intent. A rustling sound rang out in the darkness, which made Ye Xuan’s hair stand on end.
Black mist burst forth, and everything in its path was turned into nothingness. Everything was tainted with an ominous aura. Everything that was tainted either died or was assimilated into the mist.
Ye Xuan felt that this scene looked somewhat familiar.
Even the golden scales on the divine dragon’s body were dyed black, as though thick ink was spread over them. Black spots actually grew on the scales.
Ye Xuan did not know what the creature did, but the divine dragon let out a sorrowful cry. Countless scales fell off in an abnormal manner, and golden liquid spilled onto the ground.
Ye Xuan’s eyes widened subconsciously. He was extremely familiar with this liquid. He had just soaked the Dragon Pearl in it. This was dragon blood!
The divine dragon was severely injured and wailed in sorrow. Its blood spilled onto the ground, adding a sense of magnificence and desolation to the piles of white bones.
Even the divine dragon could not withstand this mist, yet alone the man. No matter how strong he was, he would still be injured.
Endless mist wrapped around the dragon’s body. Even such a powerful dragon could not resist the erosion from behind the crack. It was only a matter of time before it perished.
For some reason, Ye Xuan felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. It must be the influence of the Dragon Pearl.
He touched his cheek and felt some warmth. There was a look of confusion in his eyes. For a moment, he could not tell if all this was reality or an illusion.
The man declared, “For as long as I’m here, don’t even think about stepping into this place. I’ll protect this world! I will stop you even if I have to spill the last drop of my blood! For generations to come, I will never stop!”
After the man shouted this angrily, he began to recite complicated and difficult chants. At that moment, Ye Xuan felt a splitting headache, as if his head was going to explode.
A sense of weightlessness was accompanied by a sense of dizziness. Ye Xuan felt as if he had fallen off a cliff. The last thing he saw before he lost consciousness was the man and the dragon, who plunged into the crack in the sky without hesitation.
A strong attractive force made Ye Xuan feel as if his soul had left his body again. This was the same sensation he felt when he was sucked into the Dragon Pearl, so he knew that it was time for him to leave.
It started because of dragon blood and ended because of dragon blood.
“No! I want to stay. Why should I leave just because you want me to?”
Ye Xuan’s pupils shrank, and golden light suddenly flashed in his eyes. They were filled with a supreme divine light, resisting the pull of the attractive force. He wanted to see the end!
In the sky, or more precisely, in the universe, an even more intense battle was taking place. It was unimaginable and indescribable. He only took a glance at it, but he felt a sharp pain in his eyes.
It was during this moment that Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes. They were sore and swollen, and there was a strong burning sensation, reminding him that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
The Dragon Pearl was floating in the air, emitting a faint golden light. Nothing had changed in his surroundings. He felt as if a century had passed, but in reality, it had only been a short while.
Ye Xuan stared intensely at the pearl in front of him.
What was behind that crack?
Did the man win this battle or not?
His eyes were bloodshot. This was the price he had to pay for his strong refusal to leave and his desire to continue observing the battle.
Even so, Ye Xuan didn’t get the answers he wanted. This made him feel uneasy.
“I hadn’t expected to be awakened.”
A sudden old voice startled Ye Xuan. He frowned and looked around vigilantly. “Who is speaking?”
However, he found that there was no one around. Earlier, for safety reasons, he had set up a restriction, so it was impossible for anyone to approach him without him noticing.
“Hey, lad, I’m here.”
Ye Xuan looked at the sky in surprise and found that the voice came from the Dragon Pearl.
“It’s you?”
The Dragon Pearl circled around Ye Xuan and asked, “Lad, let me ask you, what year is it now?”
“It’s already been 1000 years.”
The voice exclaimed in surprise, “1000 years later? It’s been so long since that battle.”
“Who won that battle? What’s behind the crack?” Ye Xuan inquired anxiously.
The voice was about to answer when it suddenly thought of something and said in surprise, “How did you know about this?”
If it wasn’t for Ye Xuan’s bone age and the fact that there was no possibility of possession, it would’ve thought that some 1000-year-old monster had resurrected.
After all, how could people 1000 years in the future know about something that happened 1000 years ago?
“That’s because I saw it with my own eyes.”
Ye Xuan recounted his previous experience.
“I see. It was my Dragon Pearl that brought you back into my memories, allowing you to witness the battle. No wonder your smell is familiar to me. It seems that our fate runs deep.”
After some conversation, Ye Xuan also learnt the name of that powerful dragon. It turned out to be Long Zhan.
“Senior Long Zhan, you still haven’t answered my question. Just what was the final outcome of the battle?”
Long Zhan seemed to have fallen into some kind of trance. Then, he sighed and answered, “In truth, I don’t know what the final outcome was.”
“How could that be?”
Ye Xuan had considered that they might have won or lost, but he had never imagined that the outcome was unknown.
Long Zhan explained, “I died 1000 years ago. After I was severely injured in that great battle, there was not much cultivation and strength left in my Dragon Pearl. This is even more so after 1000 years.”
It turned out that this Dragon Pearl had long been on the verge of dissipating. Now, because of the dragon blood and its owner’s uniqueness, it had once again awakened traces of divinity.
