Cheng Huaijin found the cultivation chamber of the Ancestral Dragon's successor and discovered a stone platform there that was exactly the same as the one he had seen before.
She sat cross-legged, focused her mind, and the nine dragon eye stones emitted a faint glow.
...
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Huaijin opened his eyes again, his eyes shining brightly before returning to calm.
She stood up, walked to the stone platform, took off the necklace from her neck, and placed it on the platform.
Nine dragon eye stones melted, and the nine colors together outlined a dragon-shaped totem.
A clicking sound came from the bottom of the stone platform, as if a mechanism was being activated.
Two drops of crimson blood emerged from the eyes of the dragon-shaped totem.
Cheng Huaijin's intuition told him that this was dragon blood!
Cheng Huaijin reached out to grab it, but just then, a gust of wind swept in.
The wooden staff instantly appeared in Cheng Huaijin's hand. He swung it forcefully, and the staff seemed to collide with something very hard, producing a muffled sound.
Dragon blood was thrown into the air.
This was a monster covered in blue fur, with a human face but no eyes, and two ram's horns on its head. Its body was also like a sheep's, but its claws were like human hands. Where its chest should have been was its true face, with dragon eyes and tiger teeth, looking terrifying and disgusting.
Cheng Huaijin gripped the wooden staff tightly, and the energy of the Nine Dragons surged wildly within her body.
It turns out that she had already comprehended the ancestral dragon's legacy in the secret chamber and become the beast tamer of the nine dragons.
The blue-haired monster let out a cry like a baby crying, kicked with its hind paws, opened its tiger's mouth wide, and drooled over the dragon's blood.
Cheng Huaijin stepped onto the stone platform and leaped into the air.
With his right hand gripping the wooden staff, he reached into the gaping mouth of the blue-haired monster, holding it open to prevent it from closing. With his left hand, he also reached into its mouth, grabbing the two drops of dragon blood that were about to fall in.
Having obtained the dragon's blood, Cheng Huaijin didn't linger in the fight. He stepped on the head of the green-haired monster and ran away.
"Eek!!!!" The green-haired monster angrily chased after Cheng Huaijin, its mouth firmly held open by the wooden staff, unable to close.
The monster's eyes glowed red, and blue flames spewed from its tiger's mouth.
Cheng Huaijin instantly recalled the wooden staff, turned around, grasped it, bit his palm, used his blood as ink, and the wooden staff as a pen to draw a circle.
The blood-red orb flew toward the blue-haired monster, shrinking as it wrapped around its neck.
The blue-haired monster struggled violently, crashing into things and causing the secret chamber to shake.
"Crack..." There was a sound of something breaking.
Cheng Huaijin gripped his wooden cane tightly and looked around warily.
"Crack..."
Cheng Huaijin looked down at his body, where a crack had split open in the middle.
!!
"Huff, huff, huff..." Cheng Huaijin opened his eyes, surrounded by countless vines.
Her temples were itchy, and when she touched them, she felt a thin, withered vine.
"Phantom Killing Vine?" Cheng Huaijin paused, wondering why such a vicious killing vine would appear here.
The dragon egg lay quietly to her left.
Oh, right, dragon blood!
Cheng Huaijin still held two drops of dragon blood in his right hand. This dragon blood was very peculiar; it was both liquid and solid, and it wouldn't disperse no matter how much he rubbed or squeezed it.
She heard what sounded like someone talking above her.
The rescue team is finally coming!
Cheng Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief, directly smeared the dragon blood onto the dragon egg, watched as the dragon blood was instantly absorbed, and then put the dragon egg back into his wrist space.
Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted again.
Rather than fainting, it's more like falling asleep instantly.
I'm so mentally exhausted... It feels like I've fought several major battles.
Is someone here?
"It looks like a contestant."
"Since she's fainted, let's call for help for her."
"Wait a minute. I know him."
A calloused hand touched Cheng Huaijin's forehead, paused, and said, "He's not unconscious. He's asleep. No, help!"
"Whatever." The cold female voice faded into the distance.
"Then I'll leave now, I'm off." The woman's rapid-fire voice gradually faded into the distance.
Yunfei squatted down next to Cheng Huaijin and poked Cheng Huaijin in confusion.
How can you sleep so soundly?
