Chapter 765 Dragon Clan Secrets, The Secret of the "Ancestral Dragon"
When the old dragon heard about the "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon" technique, his eyes widened immediately.
"Senior, you also know about this technique?" Lu Qing asked, somewhat surprised.
"Of course I know, this technique is of great significance to our dragon race."
The old dragon took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"In fact, Ah Qing, you may not know this, but our Dragon Clan is related to the ancient Witch Clan."
"I'd like to hear the details," Lu Qing said, feigning a listening intent.
He had heard some things mentioned by the senior from the Witch Clan's secret realm, but he wasn't entirely clear on the specifics.
Now that Old Canglong is willing to talk, he is quite interested in learning more.
"Strictly speaking, our dragon clan should be said to have branched off from the ancient witch clan."
Or perhaps, many powerful spirit beasts and strange creatures in the world have a trace of the bloodline of the witch clan flowing through their veins to varying degrees.
It's just that the bloodline within us dragons is a bit more concentrated.
The old dragon uttered astonishing words as soon as he opened his mouth.
Lu Qing was also a little surprised, but he quickly realized what was going on.
He knew that in those distant ancient times, the Wu tribe had once ruled over the entire starry sky.
It has a profound influence on all living things under the starry sky.
It seems that although the Witch Clan has disappeared, even after such a long time, the influence they left behind still leaves traces.
"I never expected there to be such a secret. I've certainly learned something new," Lu Qing nodded.
“Our ancestors left behind instructions that our lineage was originally just a remote branch of the ancient witch clan, and our bloodline is not pure.”
However, if one can obtain the [True Dragon Nine Revolutions] method from the main lineage, one can continuously purify one's bloodline.
Once the cultivation technique is perfected, one will obtain the complete true dragon bloodline and join the main lineage for cultivation.
However, for countless years, our Azure Dragon Clan has spent endless effort but has not been able to find this technique.
I originally thought it had disappeared with the ancient witch clan, but I never expected Xiao Li to have the opportunity to obtain it.
Old Canglong's tone was tinged with regret.
It never imagined that the cultivation technique its clan had once desperately sought would appear before it in such a way.
Unfortunately, the Azure Dragon clan, like the ancient witch clan, has long since vanished into the river of time.
Only this old creature remains, clinging to life, not yet completely extinct.
"I see."
Lu Qing finally understood why the old Azure Dragon had been so agitated earlier.
It turns out that the [True Dragon Nine Revolutions] has such great significance for their dragon race.
The mysterious being in the Witch Clan's secret realm had not explained these things to him clearly.
He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Senior Canglong, the [True Dragon Nine Revolutions] that Xiaoli cultivates is an opportunity it obtained on its own, and I have no right to interfere. If you want to understand this technique, I'm afraid you'll have to discuss it with it yourself."
"No need."
Unexpectedly, the old dragon shook his head.
"According to the ancestral teachings passed down through generations of my clan, although the [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon] technique is miraculous, its level is not considered very high."
Its best time to cultivate is when it reaches the Golden Core stage.
Furthermore, it is best to use witch blood as a guide during cultivation in order to maximize its effectiveness and purify the bloodline to the greatest extent.
Once you reach the Nascent Soul Realm, the effects of cultivation will be greatly reduced, and the effects at the Dao Integration Realm will be negligible.
"Under my master's guidance, I have already forged my own path; this technique is no longer of any use to me."
If the Azure Dragon clan were still around, the old Azure Dragon would definitely ask for the [True Dragon Nine Transformations] technique.
However, now the entire clan is gone, leaving only this old fellow clinging to life.
A technique for purifying bloodlines is no longer meaningful to it.
Furthermore, since Xiao Li has already become its disciple, how could the master possibly stoop to plundering his disciple's opportunities?
Lu Qing did not speak.
He could sense the sigh in the old dragon's voice.
Without knowing the details, he couldn't offer any words of comfort.
Fortunately, the old Azure Dragon was ultimately a Dao Integration Realm expert. After a brief moment of depression, he recovered and smiled.
"However, I didn't expect that Xiao Li would actually possess the [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon]. No wonder its dragon bloodline is so pure. It seems that I need to change my teaching plan."
Xiao Li actually knew the "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon," a skill that the Azure Dragon clan had long dreamed of. This undoubtedly surprised and delighted the old Azure Dragon.
Furthermore, Xiao Li is currently at the Golden Core stage, which is the perfect time for her to cultivate the [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon].
If all goes well, it will be able to cultivate the [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon] to perfection in the future, and its bloodline will be completely purified.
At that time, it will be able to transform into a true dragon, with immeasurable potential!
Thinking of this, the old dragon's heart couldn't help but feel excited again.
To receive such a disciple with unlimited potential in the later years of its life must be an immense blessing for it.
"Old Azure Dragon, you've really struck gold this time!"
The black bull and the phoenix standing nearby had clearly thought of this as well.
In an instant, their faces showed even more envy.
"Hehe, luck, luck, all of this is thanks to Aqing."
The old dragon was so happy that his beard trembled.
Lu Qing smiled slightly, looking at the old Azure Dragon's winding body, when he suddenly remembered something.
"Senior Azure Dragon, speaking of your dragon race, do you know of a powerful dragon named 'Ancestral Dragon'?"
Back in his hometown world, Lu Qing obtained two great inheritances from the two marks of Qinglong Pass: the [Heaven-Shattering Sword Qi] and the [Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon].
Although neither of these two lineages was complete, they were still very profound for Lu Qing at the time, greatly broadening and elevating his cultivation horizons.
Among them, the "Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon" were left by the ancient mythical beast Suanni more than 100,000 years ago.
The father of the Suanni is a powerful mythical beast called "Zulong".
The secrets of the dragon race that the old Azure Dragon had just told Lu Qing reminded him of the strange beast called "Ancestral Dragon".
"A powerful dragon clan called 'Ancestral Dragon'?" Upon hearing this, the old Azure Dragon showed a look of doubt on his face. "I have never heard of such a powerful dragon clan member. Moreover, the name 'Ancestral Dragon' is not something that can be given. No dragon clan member can bear the karma associated with this title."
"Senior, is there some significance to the name 'Zulong'?" Lu Qing's heart stirred.
"Naturally, the ancestor of all dragons. Which dragon clan in the present world would dare to wield such a name? Apart from that ancestral witch of the Wu clan, no other beast can deserve such a title," the old Azure Dragon said solemnly.
"So that's how it is."
Lu Qing was somewhat shaken, and in an instant, many things came to mind.
"Aqing, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly ask about this? Could it be that there are dragons in the outside world who dare to use the name 'Ancestral Dragon'?"
An absurd expression appeared on the old dragon's face.
If that's the case, then that dragon is far too audacious.
Aren't you afraid that the immense karma will crush your spine?
"I don't know the specifics either; I've only heard others mention it, which is why I'm curious," Lu Qing explained.
The old dragon shook his head: "It must be some ignorant and arrogant descendant of the dragon race. Ignorance is bliss. Ignore it. Anyone who dares to use such a name won't live long."
That's not necessarily true...
Lu Qing recalled the information he had obtained from the imprint.
As one of the nine sons of the "Ancestral Dragon," the Suanni had cultivated to the fifth tribulation of the Primordial Spirit realm more than 100,000 years ago.
Presumably, the "First Emperor" must have lived for quite a long time.
Then, thinking back to what the old Azure Dragon said about the meaning of the name "Ancestral Dragon".
Unconsciously, Lu Qing seemed to have vaguely grasped something.
However, he still has too little information to grasp the truth hidden in the shadows.
After all, even the information about the Suanni was left over 100,000 years ago, and there is no way to confirm it.
We can only wait and see if there's an opportunity to investigate further.
"Seniors, since Xiao Li is in seclusion, I will not disturb her for now. I have just broken through and would like to leave the Immortal Palace to relax my mind. Is that alright?"
Lu Qing did not continue to ask questions about the "ancestral dragon" issue, but changed the subject.
"What are you going to do outside the Celestial Palace?" the old Azure Dragon couldn't help but ask.
Black Bull and Mingfeng also looked over.
They hadn't forgotten how much commotion Lu Qin caused when he went out last time; he even killed a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator at the peak of the Eight Tribulations stage.
Lu Qing smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to go out and clean up some trash."
...
Soon, Lu Qing arrived outside the Immortal Palace and once again stood in the plaza in front of the eight spatial vortexes.
However, this time the square was not empty; instead, many powerful figures were waiting there.
These are all powerful figures from various forces who have ventured through different channels over the years and have all been eliminated.
Among them were Lu Qing's targets for this trip: the Nascent Soul Realm disciples of the Black and White Sect.
Watching Lu Qing slowly walk towards those people, I recalled what he had said before he left.
The old Azure Dragon, who was watching this scene from within the Celestial Palace, sighed, "It seems that the disciple we took in on behalf of our master is quite bloodthirsty."
“It’s good to be bloodthirsty!” the black bull said. “Our master was too soft-hearted back then, always forgiving others, which ultimately led to a terrible mistake. If he had been more ruthless and killed that guy, our Guixu Immortal Palace wouldn’t be in this state now.”
"You stinking ox, shut up! Don't you dare talk nonsense about your master!" Mingfeng coldly shouted.
"What, did I, Old Niu, say something wrong?"
This time, the black bull did not back down as usual, and stared at Mingfeng with its eyes wide open.
"If it weren't for the master's soft heart, how could that guy have found the opportunity to let those demons in, ultimately causing such a disaster!"
Mingfeng stared coldly at the black bull, a chill emanating from her body.
It holds its master in the highest esteem, but cannot tolerate anyone who dares to slander its master.
The black bull met Mingfeng's gaze without the slightest fear. Although there was no fluctuation of its aura, it showed no timidity whatsoever.
"Alright, both of you calm down."
Seeing this, the old dragon stood in the middle with a headache, to prevent the two guys from getting really angry and starting a fight here.
"If Ah Qing comes back later and sees you two fighting, don't scare him."
Upon hearing the old dragon mention Lu Qing, Ming Feng snorted coldly, suppressed her aura, turned her head away, and refused to look at the other two again.
As for the black bull, it also withdrew its gaze and ceased its confrontation with it.
The old dragon sighed.
These two guys are always like this; whenever they talk about this issue, they almost come to blows.
In fact, it understood that Mingfeng actually agreed with what the old bull said.
After all, of the three, Mingfeng is the most bloodthirsty.
However, Mingfeng had followed her master since childhood, regarded him as her father, and respected him immensely.
So no matter how reasonable the old bull's words were, it could not tolerate its owner questioning it.
And so, because of the argument just now, the celestial palace became quiet and fell into an awkward atmosphere.
Fortunately, the awkwardness was quickly broken by the sounds coming from the light screen.
The three strange beasts couldn't help but turn their gaze to the light screen.
Within the light screen, outside the celestial palace, Lu Qing was slowly walking towards the crowd waiting outside the test passage.
Similarly, his sudden appearance also attracted the attention of those powerful figures.
When the crowd saw that it was Lu Qing who had appeared, a commotion broke out.
They were naturally familiar with Lu Qing.
Most people had a deep impression of that young man who dared to mock and insult Demon Slaughter Mountain in front of so many powerful figures.
Among the crowd, a few powerful individuals widened their eyes slightly.
It was the same Nascent Soul Realm cultivator who had personally witnessed Lu Qing's breakthrough in the array passage and the sword passage.
Especially the few powerful figures who ventured into the Sword Dao Passage; they had witnessed Lu Qing killing people in the passage, one of whom was even a disciple of the Black and White Sect.
I never expected him to appear here. Doesn't he know that there are many disciples of the Black and White Temple here?
Moreover, why is this person here? Has he also been eliminated?
But that shouldn't be the case. Based on his performance in the test channel, he shouldn't have been eliminated so quickly!
Faced with the surprised, confused, or fearful gazes of the group of powerful figures, Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged.
He looked around and found that Yu Jian and the other eight Tribulation Nascent Soul cultivators were not here.
Clearly, they are still struggling to overcome the challenges in the testing passage.
Of course, that's not important; he didn't come for them this time anyway.
Lu Qing's gaze finally landed on the dozen or so Nascent Soul Realm cultivators dressed in black and white Daoist robes.
That was his goal for this trip.
"Hey kid, what are you looking at?"
Those disciples of the Black and White Temple felt uncomfortable as they sensed the scrutiny in Lu Qing's eyes.
As disciples of the Black and White Sect, they are always the ones who scrutinize others and enjoy the fearful gazes of others.
When did it become the turn of a mere Nascent Soul Fifth Tribulation brat to look at them with such disrespect?
Immediately, a disciple of the Black and White Temple who had reached the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage conjured a black palm and suddenly grabbed at Lu Qing.
At the same time, he shouted, "Perfect! Senior Brother Tu Shan isn't here, so I'll capture you and hand you over to him!"
The black palm strike was incredibly powerful; once unleashed, it exuded a deathly aura.
Even under the suppression of the Guixu Secret Realm, it displayed powerful might, causing the powerful figures from other forces around it to change color and retreat.
However, just as the black palm was about to grab Lu Qing, a bright sword light suddenly appeared.
Wherever the sword light touched, everything was cut in half.
Both the black palm strike and the Black and White Sect disciple at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage were instantly cleaved in two.
