710 The Dragon's Aura Chooses Its Master
If the dragon's energy is not flowing smoothly, it is like a stream that has lost its tributaries to replenish it. This may not be noticeable in the short term, but if it continues for a long time, it may eventually lead to the depletion of the entire dragon's energy.
At that time, not to mention the newly born dragon energy, they themselves will probably be unable to protect themselves.
Especially recently, Kowloon has felt that although the replenishment of dragon energy in this place is continuous, it seems to be much slower than during the time of the Holy Emperor.
In some places, the dragon veins have broken, and the dragon energy no longer flows back and forth.
This is especially true in remote places, as the dragon's energy cannot be sensed in remote areas.
It's like the fine roots of a tree have been wiped away, leaving only the thick main root.
Although the impact may not seem significant at present, the sense of crisis is growing.
Just like in the previous dynasty, this also happened, but the three-section dragon did not pay attention, nor did the many other dragons, and for a long time, they enjoyed the abundance of dragon energy.
Although much of the dragon energy was absorbed by the royal cultivators, it was a vast, boundless sea of dragon energy, and the process of being born and absorbed had no effect on them whatsoever.
They hid deep within the dragon vein, quietly cultivating and living a carefree life.
Dragon energy is also a highly nourishing substance, and it was frequently used in dynasties to nourish spiritual herbs and rice, with extraordinary effects.
As for the dragon energy and dragon spirit that occasionally arise in the unclaimed ley lines, they are among the treasures coveted by cultivators, with extraordinary uses in cultivation and elixir refining.
Even if a powerful being is unwilling to cultivate and absorb dragon energy, forcibly refining it into elixirs or other magical treasures would make it an excellent material.
The dragon's aura is the foundation of a dynasty, the convergence of the people's will, and the condensation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Once the dragon's energy dries up, the foundation of the dynasty will be shaken.
Aside from those of royal blood or those permitted to absorb and cultivate the dragon's energy, if any petty person dares to covet the dragon's energy and steal even a trace of it, it might be difficult to detect at first.
However, once the path of cultivation begins, it cannot be stopped, nor is it easy to stop. If one's cultivation method can absorb other cultivators, one's appetite will inevitably grow. Greed will not stop, and in the end, it will be discovered by the royal family.
Within the royal family, there are also those who monitor the dragon's energy, constantly checking and bearing the heavy responsibility of monitoring the dragon vein and its energy, always on guard against any abnormal fluctuations.
Once any unusual changes are discovered, the thief, facing the layers of power of the royal family, will be as if facing the overwhelming might of heaven and the thunderous force of the heavens, and will inevitably suffer endless pursuit and perish.
Unless it is the end of a dynasty, when the world is in chaos, and the dragon's energy dissipates and everyone goes into hiding.
After the dragon spirit gained intelligence, it became like a cloud or mist, able to hide anywhere, and ordinary mortals could pass right by it without even noticing.
However, those with profound cultivation, if they discover this, will certainly seize its dragon energy and use it to refine pills and weapons, not wanting to waste it, or they will cultivate spiritual herbs and rice.
Dragon energy is one of the most precious resources in the world. Even if it cannot be used for a while, it will be imprisoned and used when it comes again.
Dragon energy is often hidden deep within dragon veins, in the elusive earth veins, just as a divine dragon hides in the deep sea. Ordinary people, even with their best eyesight, cannot see its true form.
The dragon energy within the dragon vein is vast and boundless, as deep as an endless ocean.
The power of the dragon spirit within is incredibly strong, seemingly capable of tearing the sky apart and making the stars tremble; its might is enough to cause mountains to collapse and rivers to flow backward.
Within it, the dragon spirit can transform into countless forms, its body becoming enormous, seemingly able to span the sky and rival the sun and moon in brilliance.
The powerful dragon energy severed the spiritual energy, and intruders could not last long.
Therefore, the land of dragon veins is very safe. It is much better to cultivate peacefully inside than to be forcibly refined by a highly skilled cultivator outside.
Especially since dragons possess spirits, they naturally desire to live a long life.
The longer it lasts, the stronger the desire to survive.
During the Fang Dynasty, many of the dragon spirits within the dragon energy of the Kui Dynasty were newly born or had not been born for long. They were not very sensitive to changes in the outside world, and many did not choose to differentiate themselves and become the chosen ones of destiny in time.
As chaos erupted, the dragon veins began to rapidly deplete. The once mighty and vast dragon veins showed signs of exhaustion, as if a giant dragon had been stripped of its life force and vitality.
Like a large tree whose roots have been severed.
The dragon energy within the earth's veins thinned to a thread in the short time it took for the many dragons to take a nap, as if it could dissipate into the world at any moment.
These dragons suddenly appeared old and frail, as if the five signs of decay had suddenly descended upon them.
The largest dragon had disappeared without anyone knowing when.
When the dragon vein is severed, the flow of dragon energy becomes obstructed, preventing it from escaping through the earth's veins. At this point, one can only be trapped in this place or risk venturing outside the dragon vein.
It was because the three-sectioned dragon had been observant and careful that it knew the old dragon was gone and must have left. It then decisively chose to leave as well, splitting into several parts and choosing different directions.
The current three-section dragon is the only one that survived from the original split; the other parts disappeared without a trace and returned to the world.
Many old dragons have disappeared. Although some have returned, their memories have changed too much, while others have become even more powerful.
So after the Three-Section Dragon escaped the previous calamity, when the Holy Emperor Dynasty was just beginning to prosper, the princes or members of the royal family cultivated and absorbed the dragon's energy, and the world was divided up and the Holy Emperor divided the world to govern.
There are other powerful figures who can cultivate it, and more people are cultivating the dragon energy, but it doesn't seem to have decreased. On the contrary, it has become even more magnificent, like an endless ocean, unfathomable in its depths.
It seems that after the world was divided into fiefdoms, some spiritual cultivators could also cultivate and absorb dragon energy, and they could also cultivate spiritual energy. Dragon energy could be transformed into armor, shaped like dragon scales, which was indestructible.
However, dragon energy is hard to find, and dragon spirits are powerful. They do not want their dragon energy to be absorbed by those they have not chosen, nor do they want to belong to those they have not chosen.
Having experienced the great calamity of the previous dynasty, the Third Dragon was naturally much more cautious, following the example of the Old Dragon, but even more aggressive than the Old Dragon, taking the lead in allocating a portion of his resources to the First Prince.
The eldest prince also had outstanding achievements, but after the Holy Emperor, he seemed to have become a different person.
The three-section dragon was much more active than the other dragons. At this moment, an idea came to mind. Looking at the old dragon in the distance, which was as still as a mountain, it seemed to be slowly disappearing, as if it wanted to hide in the clouds. Suddenly, a ripple of emotion stirred in my heart.
Looking at the other dragons, the one that appears now is a dragon spirit. Its current form is like the most noble existence in the world, with a powerful aura that shakes mountains and rivers, and its breath seems to carry clouds.
Majestic and domineering, with a magnificent and vast momentum, it swept in like a storm, and even its soft hiss sounded like rolling thunder.
The dragons, seemingly indifferent, were now appearing and disappearing, merely absorbing more of the surrounding dragon energy without exhaling, their eyes inexplicably cold.
