"Hmm? Something doesn't seem right!"

A sound suddenly echoed from the bottom of the pitch-black Dragon Abyss.

laugh--

The dragon flames ignited and shone, illuminating Ao Zhan's body.

A slight ripple stirred within her pure white eyes!

What year is it tonight?

Ao Zhan did not act rashly, but was thinking about a problem.

That's how long he's been in there!

He didn't know much about Longyuan.

The only certainty is that our ancestors, who have been sleeping through the ages, seem to rarely awaken.

Or rather, once they entered the Dragon Abyss, they were basically in a state of living dead.

Time and space seem to completely cease to exist!

As for spiritual practice, it's completely unnecessary.

After sinking into the abyss, the power within will gradually strengthen the sleeping ancestors.

That's how it is with Longyuan. The black dragons have only lost their freedom, and it even needs to help the black dragon clan become stronger.

No one has broken this rule to this day.

Even the dragon ancestors who awakened in the records have very few memories of Dragon Abyss.

Even a casual remark cannot be guaranteed to be true.

So... what state am I in now?

Ao Zhan scratched his head, and as he scratched, he realized something was wrong!

His hand touched the bump behind his forehead.

But the question is, why are there bumps in the first place?

He clearly remembered that after sinking into the abyss, his body was already covered by a smooth layer of keratin.

There wouldn't be a single bump, not even a hair.

The feeling of that protrusion was very familiar to him.

It felt like claws scraping against the scales on his own wife's body...

etc!

It's scales.

Ao Zhan suddenly reached out and tore it open, a sharp, tingling sensation shooting through his forehead.

But he dared not be distracted in the slightest, staring intently at the dragon scale in his hand.

Yes!

They are dragon scales!

The dragon scale design is practically a miniature version of the scale given to Li Fan!

how so!

Are these ancestral scales?

In the firelight, Ao Yao's gaze was fixed on the scales.

Then he slowly moved away and looked at the outstretched arm.

I don't know when, but countless lines appeared on the smooth, white stratum corneum.

These lines, like ravines, divide the entire piece of white bone into countless fine... dragon scales!

That's not right!

How could there be dragon scales!

After the Black Dragon Clan members were submerged in the abyss, they were all completely naked.

What does "dragon scales" mean?

Ao Zhan racked his brains, recalling once again the ancient texts related to the Black Dragon Clan's Abyss.

final!

He thought of a statue that has been passed down to this day!

The Black Dragon Clan's faith, the invincible powerhouse who ignited the first battle in the division of the various dragon lineages and opened the curtain on the ancient era, the Black Dragon Ancestor Ao Ni!

Holy crap?

Am I just a progenitor who is countless sizes smaller?

Could it be that I possess extraordinary talent, and that sinking into the abyss allows me to revert to my ancestral form

Or perhaps the rebellious ancestor thought my behavior of clinging to powerful figures was right and gave me this reward as a special gesture!

Forget it, never mind!

Let's see what the situation is now.

With renewed confidence, Ao Zhan stood up straight, and the small fireball began to burn fiercely.

But at that moment, the fireball was extinguished by a giant hand.

Ao Zhan's primal body was lifted up by that hand. "Don't play with fire, kid!"

Accompanying the sound was an extremely violent gust of air.

Faced with this current of air, Ao Zhan felt his scales jingling.

He vaguely saw a hazy figure.

That was a giant skeletal dragon!

Its body looked like it had no flesh at all.

Pure white bones, just like a corpse!

Glug!

Ao Zhan swallowed hard and said tremblingly, "Ancestor Bone, I was wrong!"

He hadn't expected this big shot to show up.

The number one general under the rebel ancestor, the ultimate boss surpassing even the Great Luo.

Even Ao Zhan never imagined that this person was still inside Dragon Abyss.

I never expected to meet this person.

However, after Ao Zhan finished speaking, he withdrew his arm.

The figure that appeared before Ao Zhan vanished without a trace in an instant, as if it had never existed.

If we can't make a fuss, then let's go out and take a look!

Ao Zhan suddenly looked up, his figure beginning to detach from Longyuan.

Soon, light appeared above.

As the darkness was completely dispelled, Ao Zhan's figure suddenly leaped out of the Dragon Abyss.

"Hmm? Hmm hmm hmm? The... the progenitor?"

A voice filled with extreme surprise suddenly echoed in Ao Zhan's ears.

An old well, its light shining down from the sky, completely seals off all directions.

Ao Huang's eyes gleamed with divine light, and his outstretched dragon body trembled almost imperceptibly.

"Ancestor of the Wilderness, it's me! Ao Zhan!"

Ao Zhan's voice rang out, and Ao Huang stumbled, causing the entire dragon to tremble!

Damn it!

What a disappointment!

However, Ao Huang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ao Zhan as if he had seen a ghost, "How did you get out? There's no reason for it!"

It's only been a year, and no one in the clan has woken you up yet?

What's going on? Has something happened to Longyuan?

"A year?"

Ao Zhan's eyes nearly popped out of his head. He muttered to himself, "Impossible! I feel like many years have passed."

Although I cannot perceive the passage of time, I can clearly perceive loneliness and darkness.

Besides these, my strength has also increased considerably...

He said this not to show off his strength, but because Ao Zhan really didn't understand.

"Let's not talk about your abilities yet, how did you end up like this?"

Ao Huang rushed forward, then, as if suddenly remembering something, hurriedly asked, "Could it be that you saw the Ancestor?"

In the history of the Black Dragon Clan, only the progenitor had scales.

Ao Zhan is the second such black dragon.

Meeting the progenitor Ao Ni was the only possibility that Ao Huang could think of.

"I don't know!"

Ao Zhan shook his head and voiced his thoughts, "Is it possible that the Ancestor has always existed, and that he saw the contributions I made to the Black Dragon Clan and specially bestowed this upon me?"

As for innate talent at its peak, that's just wishful thinking!

The Black Dragon Clan has a history of producing many extraordinary talents.

Leaving aside others, the one who appeared at the bottom of Dragon Abyss alone is a top-tier big shot whose power over all the heavens and myriad realms.

Thinking of this, Ao Zhan added, "By the way, Desolate Ancestor, I met Bone Ancestor."

That old man is sleeping soundly at the bottom of Longyuan!

However, like the other Black Dragon Ancestors, he seemed unable to wake up.
