Chapter 2081 - 1908: Sudden Mutation!

Dragon Blood Grass is located on the tomb of the Balong Divine Sovereign.

Because back then the Balong Divine Sovereign returned at death’s door, the Dragon Body had long since shattered, and even after being laid to rest, his Dragon Blood dyed the entire Dragon Tomb red, thus giving rise to the rare ancient Dragon Blood Grass.

Each stalk of Dragon Blood Grass is no larger than a palm, looking much like ordinary grass, except its leaves are a crimson crystalline, taking on a Dragon Form. When they sway in the wind, it is as if True Dragons are dancing, leaving one in awe.

"Ancestor of the Balong Divine Sovereign, this junior is the 103rd generation Clan Leader of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, Gu Jiuhua. Only by the grace of two benefactors on this journey was I able to avoid the calamity of extinction and preserve my children. I hope to gather a few stalks of Dragon Blood Grass on this journey and pray the Ancestor will not blame me."

The Red-scaled Demon Dragon Gu Jiuhua solemnly bowed towards the tomb of the Balong Divine Sovereign, pouring out his heart. Ye Chen and Aben did likewise, not skipping the courtesy, showing respect.

Subsequently, Gu Jiuhua ascended to the highest part of the Dragon Tomb, where there was a patch of red Dragon Blood Grass, totaling no more than a dozen stalks.

Gu Jiuhua dared not step onto the tomb so as not to desecrate the ancestral Heroic Spirit. He carefully retrieved it through the air, finally taking five stalks, approximately a third of the whole.

Dragon Blood Grass has a significant role for the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, and five stalks are practically the limit.

Fortunately, Ye Chen didn’t need too much, accepting the Dragon Blood Grass, and the three of them once again bowed in respect towards the tomb of the Balong Divine Sovereign.

As they left, from afar, Ye Chen glimpsed in the deepest part of the Dragon Tomb World a tomb towering even higher than that of the Balong Divine Sovereign, soaring to a height of ten thousand zhang, almost breaking through the Cangqiong itself, piercing the clouds above.

Ye Chen distinctly felt a different sensation emanating from there; he could feel that there, the will of the Dragon Tomb was especially strong, with at least more than half of the vast Will fluctuating there, imposing a terrifying pressure that resisted any approach.

In a daze, he seemed to perceive within it a Pure Blood True Dragon of Creation Realm lurking dormant, having slumbered for eons, awaiting awakening.

And just as Ye Chen gazed at that tomb, he clearly sensed the vast Will fluctuating above their heads suddenly concentrating, astutely feeling a vague emotion.

This was an emotion filled with hostility.

An emotion of hostility that had never been there before.

As his gaze shifted away, the hostility within the Dragon Tomb’s Will seemed to lessen significantly.

This only further increased Ye Chen’s intrigue, vaguely feeling that there might be some astounding secret hidden in that particular Dragon Tomb.

Moreover, Ye Chen sensed a subtle disturbance within his body, as if something was trembling, wanting to break free from his body, but upon careful perception, it vanished, even he couldn’t pinpoint the source of the disturbance.

However, upon sensing the hostile Will of the Dragon Tomb, Ye Chen did not immediately inquire, waiting until the group of three exited the Dragon Tomb World. Once he felt that the vast Will, ever-present since entering the Dragon Tomb World, was no longer overhead, he finally spoke up to inquire.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jiuhua’s expression became somewhat peculiar, saying, "Lord Ye Chen, it’s no secret; that tomb is actually the tomb of the seventh-generation ancestor, the Red Blood Dragon Emperor."

Ye Chen was stunned, as was Aben, wasn’t it said that after the Dark Blood Era ended, the Red Blood Dragon Emperor ventured into the Tenth Heavenly Ancient Domain and went missing?

Now to find a tomb of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor within the Dragon Tomb World, it seemed quite mysterious.

Immediately, Gu Jiuhua revealed some secrets, explaining that although it was the tomb of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor, it actually wasn’t so.

Back then, the Red Blood Dragon Emperor was the supreme myth of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, stepping into an unmatched myth within the entire race, accomplished the Creation Dao, reaching Creation Heavenly Human, and even completed a super evolution through his own strength, shedding the old body, transforming into the supreme Pure Blood True Dragon, a pride of the entire Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan.

What was buried within the Dragon Tomb was the old Dragon Body the Red Blood Dragon Emperor shed back then, not his true self.

Because the Red Blood Dragon Emperor was the seventh-generation ancestor of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, holding supreme status, and having gone missing for many years, though the clan had never believed such an Invincible would pass away, they hoped for the Red Blood Dragon Emperor to return to the ancestral land and hold a place there. Therefore, they interred his old, shed body within the Dragon Tomb.

In the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, there has always been a theory that the Dragon Tomb World was created from within the old body of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor, and therefore the Will of the Dragon Tomb might largely arise from this, perhaps even containing a wisp of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor’s Will.

Should it be possible to converse with the Will of the Dragon Tomb, there might be a chance to learn the mystery of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor’s life and death.

Unfortunately, the Will of the Dragon Tomb has always seemed to be in a vague state, and no matter how future generations attempt to communicate, it is often in vain. Over time, the entire Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan believed the Will of the Dragon Tomb to be in a state of unconsciousness, devoid of spiritual intelligence.

However, Ye Chen always felt that the Red Blood Dragon Emperor’s tomb was very strange. Were it not for the fact that it was the tomb of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan and could not be desecrated, he would have wanted to break it open to study the old body of the Red Blood Dragon Emperor thoroughly.

Perhaps there might be a way within, allowing even Aben to achieve super evolution and become a Pure Blood True Dragon.

That night, Ye Chen and others could not decline the sincere invitation and stayed a night to rest in a luxurious palace within the Dragon Palace as guests of Gu Jiuhua, planning to set out again the next day.

That night, Ye Chen took out the Dragon Blood Grass, the Chaos Tripod, and some medicinal materials, preparing to refine some related pills. But at that moment, from within his Chaos Mini Universe, a streak of red-gold flowing light shot out, buzzing into the air with a crack, breaking through the palace.

Ye Chen was startled, for that red-gold flowing light was undoubtedly the Light Cocoon formed by Little Bumpkin in slumber. Worried something might happen, he also soared into the sky, pursuing it.

But this time, the red-gold flowing light was extremely fast, even Ye Chen had a hard time keeping up, his mind puzzled and astonished by this change, until he looked towards the direction the flowing light flew, and his expression changed completely.

Because it was precisely the location of the Dragon Tomb.

"Not good!"

Ye Chen shouted inwardly, hastening his pace to catch up, yet the red-gold flowing light swished into the Dragon Tomb World, and the Great Formation covering the Dragon Tomb World offered no resistance, allowing the flowing light to penetrate, sinking into the depths of the Dragon Tomb World.

And then it completely vanished, never to be seen again.
