Although they had expected to see something extraordinary, when the oriental-looking five-clawed golden dragon appeared in their sight, everyone from Lin Lang's group of three to An Xueyi's group of five fell into silence.
Seeing a group of Western dragons bowing down to Eastern dragons and calling them their ancestors is a bit strange...
More importantly, calling Dongfang Long "ancestor" but not understanding Chinese is quite "unfilial" in a sense.
Taking advantage of the fact that these dragons couldn't understand Chinese, Lin Lang and the other two didn't bother to enter the private channel and just started chatting.
"I seriously suspect that these dragons have been fooled." Su Mu said: "These two don't look like the same species."
"Hey, do you think that our Eastern Dragon Ancestor randomly adopted a child and tricked it into believing it was a dragon?" Lin Yuan guessed, "One is strong and muscular, and the other is long and thin. Didn't they have any doubts when they grew up with the five-clawed golden dragon?"
Lin Lang stared at the five-clawed golden dragon on the coffin and looked at it carefully. After a long while, he sighed, "Although I feel a little sorry for my Yila, I really only like the oriental dragons. They are so beautiful and bring good fortune!"
Su Mu and Lin Yuan nodded in agreement.
"But then again, as the saying goes, a dragon gives birth to nine sons. It's not strange to give birth to a dragon with a hornet, a rhinoceros with a hornet, a turtle with a hornet... and a lizard with a dragon, right?" Lin Lang said again.
Su Mu said faintly: "That night, the dragon and the lizard were both drunk..."
Lin Yuan was a little excited: "According to this, we are relatives of these dragons? Who is not a descendant of a dragon?"
"That makes sense!" Su Mu and Lin Lang said in unison.
An Xueyi and the other five people on the side: "......"
These dragons don’t understand Chinese, but they do understand!
Is it really okay to talk about dragon gossip so openly? That's a dragon! The legendary dragon that can destroy the world!
What he experienced in just one day was equivalent to the five years of An Xueyi's adventure in the other world. The impression of Lin Lang and the other two in his eyes also changed from a "possibly hidden" traverser at the beginning, to a student who was "selected to enter the ruins" and didn't know whether to say lucky or unlucky, to a real hidden super boss. Until the casual chat of Lin Lang and the other two, An Xueyi fell into deep doubt again.
——It turns out that we can’t stereotype people. Even the best masters love gossip!
Just as Lin Lang and the other two were talking nonsense, the sacrifice led by the golden dragon finally ended. The golden dragon turned around from the air.
Lin Lang and the other two immediately cooperated and pretended to listen attentively, but Jin Long said nothing and just looked down at Lin Lang and his group.
Lin Lang: "...May I ask, Senior, what exactly do you want to tell us by bringing us here?"
"It's really troublesome to serve the dragon." Lin Lang thought: "I should go back and beat up Song Mingzhe to vent my anger."
Lin Lang's cooperative attitude satisfied the golden dragon. He nodded his noble dragon head and spoke in human language: "Human, you should know the legend of the twenty-four gods creating all things."
Lin Lang and the other two nodded. "In the Chaos Era (about 25,000 years ago), the twenty-four gods used the remaining power of 'chaos' after the 'God of Creation' created the world to create all things. The 'Dragon Clan' created by the 'God of Sky', the 'Elves Clan' created by the 'Goddess of Light', and the 'Vampire Clan' created by the 'Goddess of Darkness' were born first and are known as the 'Three Original Clans'."
This is a history known to all people in Parnaqui. The first lesson students learn when they enter campus is the story of the "Creator God" creating the world.
"We, the 'original three tribes', are not only the most powerful three tribes, but also have a 'heritage' that other tribes do not have." The golden dragon said: "The elves inherited 'light and elements', the blood race inherited 'night and dreams', and our dragon race inherited 'blood and history' - from before the Chaos Era."
...
In the classroom, Su Mingya, the Saint of the Elf Clan, Lu Baixi, the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan, and Song Mingzhe, the Nether Dragon King, looked at each other.
All three of them are at the top of their respective groups, but have never heard of any "inheritance".
Above the Saint is the Chief of the Elves, and above the Grand Duke of the Blood are the Prince and the Blood Emperor. These blood clansmen who possess the "blood of the original ancestors" cannot be reached by relying on strength as Lu Baixi, a blood clan member transformed from a human - even though there is almost no one in the blood clan who is stronger than her now.
After all, the two of them have not yet reached the pinnacle of status and power, so it is understandable that they do not know these secrets.
"But what about you, Song Mingzhe?" Ou Wenna raised her eyebrows. "You have become the Dragon King, but you don't even know such a thing. This doesn't seem like a qualified person in power."
Song Mingzhe: “…”
Then you know that group of old guys are deliberately excluding him!
...
"Why haven't we heard Song...Taiamos mention these things?" Su Mu asked.
The red dragon snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "What's wrong with a five-hundred-year-old little dragon becoming the Dragon King? At such a young age, you want to get in touch with the secrets of our dragon clan. It's simply wishful thinking!"
Song Mingzhe: “…”
"But you still let him become the Dragon King, didn't you?" Lin Lang's eyes were sharp: "If you really don't want him to be the king, the pressure of the 'Five-clawed Golden Dragon' alone would be enough to help you subdue Tyamos, right?"
The golden dragon's eyes darkened, and with a long dragon roar, his voice rang out again: "You really do know the name of the ancestor."
His voice was not anxious or surprised, but rather extremely confident, with an indescribable sense of relief and liberation, as if part of the responsibility that he had been carrying on his shoulders for tens of thousands of years had finally been completed.
Lin Lang and the other two looked at each other, and a bold plan quickly formed in their minds.
"In fact, you seniors don't know this." Lin Lang's eyes were sincere, and he began to deceive: "The place where you seniors are now is called 'Huaxia'."
She pointed at An Xueyi and the other four who were still unable to understand dragon language and looked confused. "Our current bodies, including these humans, are called 'descendants of the dragon'. We, like you, all have the blood of the five-clawed golden dragon flowing in our veins - it's just that it has been diluted to the point where it is almost invisible. But if you trace back to our roots, we are all brothers and sisters!"
Lin Yuan followed suit and said, "The rulers of China were once called 'True Dragon Sons of Heaven', which means they possessed pure dragon bloodline."
"Although there is no 'True Dragon Emperor' now, we Chinese people regard the dragon as a totem and still believe in the great dragon clan."
Su Mu: "Yes, yes!"
"If you don't believe it, you can leave the dragon tomb and go to the outside world to find out." Lin Lang relied on the fact that these dragons had never been to school and said crazily: "Nowadays, temples of the dragon clan can be seen everywhere in the outside world - just like the "temple", they are worshipped and believed in."
"In China, the dragon clan controls all the aquatic creatures and waters in the world, and is responsible for making clouds and rain, eliminating disasters and bringing blessings. It is a symbol of auspiciousness and has left a strong and colorful mark in the history of China." Lin Yuan added: "My seniors, you may not know that your ancestors used to live in the four seas and built the 'Dragon Palace' on the seabed. They were called the 'Four Dragon Kings' and were famous and well-known to everyone!"
Su Mu: "Listen!"
Lin Lang: "The Dragon Palace is full of treasures from all over the world. Legend has it that a monkey went to the Dragon Palace and 'took' a pillar from it. With this pillar, he became invincible!"
Su Mu: "Look!"
Lin Lang and the other two were determined to pull the dragons into the human camp. Even though they were only in soul form now, they were still extremely powerful and precious fighting force for the Earth. Not to mention that there were tens of thousands of giant dragons on the Dragon Island of Parnaki. With the blood of the ancestors here, there was no fear that they would not stand on the side of the Earth.
There is no one who doesn't like to be flattered, especially the dragon race who are born to love all things gorgeous.
As for the truthfulness of what Lin Lang and the other two said, the dragons had no doubt at all. This was not because the dragons were overconfident and unilaterally believed that Lin Lang and the other two, who were weaker than them, did not have the courage to deceive them - Lin Lang and the other two were using the language of the dragons at this moment, which contained spirituality and magic. From the narration of Lin Lang and the other two, the dragons clearly felt the change in spirituality.
——In Parnaki, time is also a magical element. A magnificent history will be recorded in a special way by time, thus leaving behind spirituality. If future generations narrate or write history in a language that contains magic, they will be able to feel the remnants of spirituality.
The same is true for legends, except that compared to the spirituality left by history, there is an extra layer of "faith". The more faith there is, the stronger the spirituality contained in the legend.
The dragon clan is very sensitive to the changes in magic and spirituality, so they can naturally feel how much spirituality is contained in what the three people said - especially since there is no magic in this world, and such a great spirituality can be accumulated through faith alone. It can be seen that what Lin Lang and the other two said is true.
The dragons' eyes gradually softened as Lin Lang and the other two sang in unison. To outsiders, the dragons' protection of their shortcomings was extremely deadly. But to their own kind, the dragons' protection of their shortcomings was quite pleasing.
"If it's really as you said, you are our compatriots." The golden dragon flapped its wings and descended a little. It no longer called Lin Lang and the other two "humans" and said, "Youngsters, what are your names?"
Lin Lang and the other two subconsciously wanted to give their Parnaki names, but after thinking it over, they chose the Chinese names.
"Lin Lang/Lin Yuan/Su Mu."
They read it in both dragon language and Chinese characters, and explained: "This is the Chinese language. In this world, the dragons use this language."
"Although it has no magic power, it is full of spirituality." Jin Long nodded in appreciation: "I will take note of it."
"Excuse me, Senior, is the history from before the Chaos Era that you just mentioned what you wanted to tell us?"
"You are quite clever, young man." Jin Long said, "The many creatures in Parnaki today are actually the second 'creation' of the twenty-four gods. Earlier, Parnaki had a secret history. Due to unknown pollution, Parnaki's magic power had problems, causing all the creatures in Parnaki to become mad to varying degrees. In order to save these creatures, the long-dormant 'God of Creation' forcibly awakened, opened up a new world, and transferred all the creatures. At the same time, he exhausted his power, purified the magic power of Parnaki, and disappeared completely from then on."
"That 'five-clawed golden dragon'..." Lin Lang murmured.
"The 'Five-clawed Golden Dragon', our ancestor, was the strongest among the 'Twenty-Four Gods' of Parnaki. He resisted the crazy erosion and became the only life left. So the 'God of the Sky' used the ancestor's blood to recreate a new dragon clan, which is us today." said the Golden Dragon.
"But why would the legend of the 'Five-clawed Golden Dragon' appear on Earth? This space has been on Earth from beginning to end - your dragon tomb was built on Earth from the beginning!" Lin Lang looked straight at the golden dragon and expressed his guess.
Jin Long’s words made Lin Lang tremble with fear.
For Parnaki, who evolved from the "God of Creation", has the pollution really been completely eliminated?
Magic power can cause mutations in organisms. The endless mutants in Parnaki and the frequent appearance of mutants on Earth after the emergence of magic - could it be that the "pollution" mentioned by the Golden Dragon was not pollution at all from the beginning, just like the increasingly dense magic power in Parnaki, is it just that the concentration of magic has exceeded the limit that the world can bear?
...But if this is the case, then could the civilization hidden in history be the "end" of Parnaqui?
"In fact, you have already guessed the answer, so why ask me?" The golden dragon's amber eyes seemed to see through everything. He smiled and nodded: "No life can be born naturally in magic, so the Parnaki race can only be created by the 'Twenty-Four Gods'. In order to avoid pollution, the ancestor brought some of the creatures of Parnaki to break through the seal between the two worlds and came to this world without magic. As a result, the passage between the two worlds was opened, and this almost destroyed this world. In order to prevent this world from falling into madness due to Parnaki's magic, and also to atone for his sins, the ancestor used his body to block the passage between the two worlds. Afterwards, the 'Twenty-Four Gods' took away all the 'contaminated' lives, and sent those with intelligence to the new world opened up by the 'Creator God'. Some of the plants that were not completely mutated were sent to Parnaki, and they took away the magic of this world and used the blood of the ancestor to create our dragon race. Finally, the 'Twenty-Four Gods' sent a flood to cleanse the world on the verge of madness, leaving only the creatures that had not yet been polluted."
"The tomb you see now was built by the dragon clan before they left to block the passage between the two worlds. Even though the ancestor blocked the passage, due to the expansion of Parnaki's magic power, the passage between the two worlds would occasionally open in a small range. The ancestor considered this early on and engraved a spirit gathering array under the tomb. If the passage between the two worlds is opened, the leaking magic power will be absorbed by the spirit gathering array, and the absorbed magic power will be used to repair the barrier. Ten thousand years have passed like this until five hundred and twenty years ago."
This sensitive moment made Lin Lang and the other two in the tomb and the students from Class 9 sitting in the classroom feel their hearts skip a beat.
"The barrier between the two worlds was suddenly forcibly opened by a mysterious force, and a soul was cast into Parnaki."
