The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 67: The Tale of the Ugly Dragon and the Majestic Eagle

This tale tells of a dragon that tried to ascend to the heavens but was burned ugly and became a small black ugly snake. All divine beasts and gods mock the poor little dragon, even the magic beasts. The years went by and everyone forgot about the little dragon, which was once a majestic dragon that would ascend to the heavens.

Now there was only a small, ugly black snake crawling pitifully on the barren, deserted ground, until one day a powerful magical beast riding a legendary martial emperor was passing through the area, curiously exploring the eagle saw a black snake and He went there to hunt, maybe even play with his new prey. 

The proud eagle approached the black snake and saw that it was a big ugly snake, the eagle felt disgusted and wanted to mock the snake, but the giant black snake was indifferent to all malice and mockery. This snake was the majestic ancient dragon, he had been mocked by gods and transcendents, so more or less mocking didn't matter. 

The black snake became apathetic until it was offered the Long Yu Peach, or Dragon Dao Peach, which is a rare fruit that dragons can use to ascend to heaven, which is the second way to ascend to heaven. However, this fruit was harder to find than finding phoenix and horn blood from Qilin!

The eagle looked at the confused black Dragon, he transformed into his human form and turned out to be a beauty that would topple cities. If there were a superior beauty in that world, it would be the human form of this eagle. Even the dragon, when he was majestic, had never seen a man as handsome as this eagle.

"Many years ago a heavenly being made a prediction in my life, he said I was the most beautiful being in this world, but I was destined to be alone because my beauty in human form would bring calamity, only when I found the being ugliest of this world, I could find a Dao partner. What a coincidence, I found the most infamous black snake of all five planes! "Said the eagle simply.

The ugly black dragon looked terrified and was shocked by the eagle's words, but this explanation sounds silly, how would he know he needs a Long Yu fruit to help this dragon? Nonsense about predicting the future! 

The heart of the black dragon that was plunged into the deepest ice of indifference had been warmed again by the eagle's foolish words, which had given him a second chance to reach the heavens. 

"Are you going to ascend to heaven too?" Asked the ugly black dragon, his voice hoarse and unpleasant from the years he did not communicate. 

"No, the heavens are very boring! I have a young master who wants to conquer the five planes, that sounds more fun! "Said the most handsome man in the world with a smile that made the dragon's icy heart beat faster.

After the eagle said his words he left with a short farewell and the Black Dragon was left alone with the Long Yu peach. In his hands was his second chance to ascend to heaven and be like those gods and transcendents. 

The Black Dragon looked across the area around him, this was a lifeless and desolate place, because of the lightning that the sky threw at him in his rise to power. He looked back at the holy fruit and then he smiled, digging the ground around him and planting the Long Yu peach there.

He doesn't need this Long Yu peach, so the Black Dragon left the barren, lifeless area, he went after the beautiful eagle. 

After so many years the Ugly Black Dragon realized that he didn't want to go to heaven, he was so much stronger than all those up in the sky, in his loneliness and pain he reached the strongest of Daos, even the heavens were afraid him. In the end, he was even more alone. Then the eagle appeared ... And it all made sense. 

Of course, the tale does not tell what happened after the ugly black dragon joins the beautiful and majestic eagle, but everyone imagines that they had amazing adventures and that years later the ugly black dragon returned to that once deserted area, but now it was full of life and energy, just like the life of the Ugly Black Dragon, there was the majestic peach tree. In that tree, the Ugly Black Dragon wrote the mantra of his life and died soon after, for he only came back there because it was in that place that he had begun a new life. 

Dao scholars believe that the Ugly Black Dragon had lost his years-old companion and friend the beautiful and majestic Eagle, so he returned to the place where they met and wrote the strongest mantra at the same time only those intended for that mantra could interpret your words. 

"In the deepest darkness I stayed, in the deepest darkness I grew, but it was only in the brightest light that I lived freely." Long Bai.

Of course, Zemin Yan doesn't know about the hate, love, and sadness that the author of this mantra has gone through, he only knows the little information that was on the jade disc. That in order to cultivate this mantra one had to meet special conditions, as the environment is charged with negative energy, and that in practicing the mantra the cultivator must be mocked and kept calm while cultivating.

If any expert saw this Black Dragon and Majestic Eagle Mantra, they would kneel before this mantra. This is a powerful mantra that even the emperors had fought tens of thousands of years ago!

Of course, once again, Zemin Yan did not know that this was a precious mantra, but this was the only mantra he could understand from the dozens he had stored on the jade discs in his ring.
