Chapter 135 The Truth About Xilin
This was not the first time Nan Wang had had a dream.
This time, it's different from every time in the past.
Nan Wang has been looking forward to the meeting between "Long Wang" and "the monster". He knows that there must be an unforgettable past between the two.
However, when this past event really appeared in Nanwang's dream, Nanwang felt more at a loss than excited.
No, dreams...are they so real?
Nan Wang raised his arms and looked at his hands. These were obviously not the same hands as in his memory.
It was as if he had come directly into a dream.
——Longwang Longwang, what are you doing?
Nan Wang came back to his senses and said, "Come to think of it, I have always been curious about who you are."
--ah?
——What are you talking about? Wake up!
Following a long roar from his companion spirit, a large number of memories that did not belong to him suddenly appeared in Nan Wang's mind.
From breaking the shell, to transformation, to adulthood, to rupture...
Nanwang felt as if he was split apart. He knew very well that he was Nanwang, but at this moment... he was both Nanwang and Longwang.
His behavior began to be out of his control, because this was not what he was experiencing at all, but something that had already happened and could not be changed.
Soon, Long Wang's consciousness took over this body again.
But Nanwang did not disappear. He sank into the depths of Longwang's sea of consciousness and came face to face with a crystal clear object that he had seen before.
Nanwang: "Fuck, the Seven Secrets Exquisite Heart!"
——?
——Long Wang, what’s wrong with you!
Long Wang: "You are the one who is having a seizure. What are you talking about?"
——???
Nanwang suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
I can only complain like crazy in my heart——
It turns out that the thing that has been fighting against Long Wang is the Seven Mysterious Exquisite Heart!
It was this culprit who never did his job and only knew how to make random suggestions, leading two Fifth True Disciples astray!
Long Wang and Qi Liao Ling Long Xin argued for a while, and then flew leisurely towards their destination.
Nanwang, who possesses all of Longwang's memories, is now digesting Longwang's past.
In the upper three realms, the dragon clan is a race with absolute status. The birth of each dragon can cause great changes in the world, but the number of dragons is very rare, especially the true dragon clan. Until now, only the last three of the Longwang family are left.
The only relatives Long Wang had since he was a child were his two older brothers. Although his second brother took care of him in every way, he was too frivolous and always bullied Long Wang, which Long Wang did not like.
The person Long Wang likes the most is his steady, reliable, gentle and kind elder brother, Long Ye.
As a young dragon with two real dragons over his head, Long Wang lived a lawless life, doing trouble all day long, and no matter how big the trouble he caused, no one would blame him.
Everyone flattered him, coaxed him, and tried to get something good from him.
Fortunately, the eyes of the dragon clan can see the future, and the heart of the dragon clan can distinguish between good and evil. Whether it is flattery or attack, what outsiders do will not have much impact on Longwang.
The True Dragon Clan does not even need to practice cultivation, because they are born into gods, and the only setback in their lives is washing their scales.
After the scales are washed, one can become a true god and rule the world.
Since Long Wang was born, countless immortals have offered countless treasures just in exchange for Long Wang going to the lower three realms where their lower tribes are located to perform the scale-washing ceremony.
During the scale-washing ceremony, the dragon clan will abandon their bodies and enter the myriad reincarnations with only their spirits. Finally, their spirits will turn into scales and reshape their immortal bodies.
As for the body that was abandoned during the scale washing process, it can be transformed into endless spiritual energy, blessing all things and protecting the world. It can even directly transform the lower three realms with exhausted spiritual energy into the middle three realms where it is easier to ascend.
When Long Ye washed his scales, several members of the Golden Chan clan ascended to the upper three realms.
Everyone said that Xilin was a gift from heaven and proof that he was favored by heaven.
However, the true dragon possesses too many gifts, not just the one that can wash away the scales.
The eye that sees the sky, the companion spirit, the strongest bones, the immortal and devil elixir... Even if they have not been cleansed, they are still the favorites of heaven.
What exactly is scale washing for a real dragon?
When Long Wang was beaten by Long Ye for three days, he had been thinking about this problem all the time.
Until the toppled Dragon City pressed down on him like the Five Finger Mountain, the strong feeling of suffocation reminded him of the greedy eyes of those people and the rare descendants of the dragon clan, and then he figured it out -
Washing scales means the death of a true dragon.
What everyone expects, hopes for, and desperately wants to gain from them is that when one whale falls, all things come to life.
It was Long Ye who died, which was not important because it was profitable; it was the Dragon God who was reborn, which was even less important because the real dragon was the darling of heaven and was above all the immortals.
Later, Longwang ran away.
He ran away with the dragon egg that Long Ye had abandoned.
The place he fled to was not the Three Thousand Small Worlds, but the place he had been thinking about ever since they parted at the Punishment God Platform that day - the Realm of Death.
The Death Realm is the most special of all small worlds. Ordinary small worlds are unrelated to each other and exist independently, but the Death Realms will invade, merge, and devour each other. Weak Death Realms are destroyed by strong Death Realms, and strong Death Realms continue to invade other Death Realms and even weak small worlds until they are devoured by even stronger Death Realms.
The realm of the dead cannot be transformed into a normal small world, and no living beings will be able to break through the realm and ascend to heaven. All living beings have only the possibility of dying. After all living beings die, the realm of the dead will quickly decline.
Logically speaking, the Death Realm is a small world that should be destroyed. However, the gods in the upper three realms do not want to dirty their hands. They also know that the Death Realm will disappear on its own even if left alone, so they never get involved in the affairs of the Death Realm and will never step into the chaotic and disordered Death Realm.
No immortal would have imagined that the world of the dead, which they regarded as a rag, would be regarded as a treasure by the dragon.
After much hardship, the little dragon finally found the realm of the dead where the monster was.
The monster is carrying the curse of the Dragon God, so he cannot go to the normal small world and can only stay in the dead world and wait for death for the rest of his life. Of course, he can also choose to escape in different dead worlds and turn the death penalty into life imprisonment.
For the Red Lotus Dragon God, this result would be much more pleasing to him than letting the monster die quickly.
However, the monster did not choose to do so.
He chose a weak world of the dead. With his hard work, the world of the dead not only survived the attacks of other worlds of the dead, but even developed a sect of immortal cultivation within it. The disciples used extremely simple and even incomplete immortal manuals to pursue the unrealistic dream of immortality.
Long Wang was astonished by this... and prostrated himself on the ground.
He fabricated an identity for himself as a seeker of immortality, and managed to get close to the monster.
However, the monsters saw from the beginning that he came from the upper three realms and thought that he had evil intentions and ulterior motives, so they never showed up in front of him.
The few times he did so were all to coax him into handing over rare treasures and jade slips of magical powers, or to send him to deal with invasions from other dead realms.
When it comes to monsters, the word that Qishu Linglongxin uses most often is "liar".
But Long Wang didn't care.
He had been in the world of the dead for nearly a hundred years, during which time he had dealt with countless secret realms for the monsters and had almost used up all the secret treasures on his body. Only then did he manage to let down the monsters' defenses.
Just today, when Nan Wang came through, Long Wang was holding the spiritual herbs he got from the invaded dead world, and was heading to the cave where the monster was meditating to seek credit.
He tried to use this magical herb that could help with spiritual practice to exchange for the monster's name.
The monster accepted the spiritual herb without hesitation and said, "My last name is Zhang, and I am the third child in my family. If you don't want to be my apprentice, then you can become my sworn brother. From now on, you can just call me Zhang San."
——Liar!!!
Nanwang: “…”
