Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 2232 Raw 2338 : Royal Dragon Blood

Xiao Chen entered the interior of the Azure Dragon statue and headed straight in. Soon, he reached the end, where the wall showed a painting of ten thousand dragons gathering.

This was where Xiao Chen formed the Ten Thousand Dragons Picture and gained the right to cultivate the Ten Thousand Dragons Art.

“Whoosh!”

The dragon spirit appeared and looked at Xiao Chen. Then, it said, “Unexpectedly, you managed to become a Sovereign Emperor so quickly. This surpassed my expectations.”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. He had the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor’s inheritance. Even if he had not entered the Faux God World, he would still be a Sovereign Emperor by now.

Entering the Faux God World just allowed Xiao Chen to become a Sovereign Emperor faster.

“I have arrived as arranged. Now that I am a Sovereign Emperor, can I obtain the Azure Dragon’s inheritance?” Xiao Chen asked straightforwardly.

The dragon spirit retorted indifferently, “Right now, the Azure Dragon Race’s bloodline has faded away. You might be the only one left. If you do not succeed the inheritance, who can? Fifty-odd years ago, I did not even let that Heavenly Dragon in when he knelt outside the city for one hundred days.”

Xiao Chen felt slightly startled. He had not expected the Heavenly Dragon to have suffered such a setback.

“However, you have to think carefully. After obtaining the Azure Dragon’s inheritance, you will have to shoulder the burden of the Azure Dragon’s fate, whether you are willing or not. There is no escape; there is no other choice. You will have to shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the Azure Dragon Race and rejuvenating the Dragon Race’s great cause.”

“Wait...” Xiao Chen interrupted the other party.

As he looked at the dragon spirit, he said, “I know about revitalizing the Azure Dragon Race. Back then, the old Dragon Horse and the others told me about it. I have already carved and placed an Azure Dragon Totem in the Kunlun Realm. Currently, things have taken a turn for the better. However, what do you mean by rejuvenating the Dragon Race’s great cause?”

The dragon spirit explained seriously, “Back then, the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor and Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun nearly fulfilled this fate. They were only one step away from establishing a supreme Divine Dragon Dynasty, ruling both the Righteous Dao and Demonic Dao, and starting a new epoch.”

“A new epoch?”

“That’s right. When the Black Dragon King broke the World Tree, the Martial Epoch entered an irreversible decline. Epochs rise and fall, like the cycle of four seasons. It is just like when the Immortal Epoch fell and the Martial Epoch rose.”

The dragon spirit said indifferently, “Since the Great Desolate Eon, the Dragon Race has endured through countless epochs. Its inheritance never got cut off. However, it never could truly start a new epoch. The Azure Dragon bloodline is the proudest and noblest bloodline of the Dragon Race. Logically, it would have started an epoch that belonged to the Dragon Race.”

Flabbergasted, Xiao Chen said in a heavy voice, “It feels very distant.”

“It’s fine. Whether you are willing or not, this is the fate of the Azure Dragon Race; you cannot avoid it.” The dragon spirit did not explain further. Then, it said softly, “Come. I’ll bring you to acknowledge the ancestors and enter your name into the Dragon Race’s royal genealogical record.”

“Ka ca!”

The dragon spirit gently tapped the wall with the Ten Thousand Dragons Picture carved on it. The wall slowly opened from the middle.

An ancient, azure book floated quietly amid eternal darkness.

What is your family name and given name?

Just as Xiao Chen found this strange, a voice suddenly rang out in his heart. Before he could react, he had already replied in his mind.

As the words “Xiao Chen” appeared in his mind, the ancient, azure book opened silently.

Xiao Chen’s face twisted in unbearable pain. He felt an invisible energy being pulled out of his soul and bloodline. This feeling of the soul and bloodline being pulled out vanished only when the words “Xiao Chen” appeared on the book and the book closed.

“Whoosh!”

After the book closed, a drop of dragon blood flew out and entered Xiao Chen’s forehead.

In the next moment, Xiao Chen felt his blood burn, and his Great Desolate Eon bloodline activated uncontrollably.

“Ah!”

Xiao Chen let out a loud cry of pain. He could no longer endure, roaring like a madman.

A dragon roar thundered, and a sovereign’s will that traveled across time shook the surroundings. A horrifying and startling King Dragon Might burst out of his body, coming from ancient times. This was the King Dragon Might from the Mythological Eon and Great Desolate Eon.

Xiao Chen went mad; the agony reaved him of his rationality. An ancient seal formed slowly on his forehead.

He regained his clarity and consciousness only after the seal finished forming. He felt like all his blood had been replaced.

It was not just a simple rebirth. As he raised his hand or leg, he unconsciously exuded an ancient King Dragon Might.

Xiao Chen’s air was utterly different. Not only that, but the Azure Dragon’s power in his bloodline seemed to be stronger than before.

The most shocking thing was that Xiao Chen could freely control his Great Desolate Eon bloodline.

After the Great Desolate Eon bloodline activated, one’s strength would skyrocket. However, it would not last for long, and the negative effects were obvious; one would enter a prolonged weakened state.

However, Xiao Chen’s bloodline was already activated, but he did not feel like it had gone berserk.

This seems like how everything ought to be. This is my power in the first place. Naturally, it has to heed my commands.

“What happened to me?” Xiao Chen looked at the dragon spirit in shock, not understanding what happened.

“King! You are now the king of the Azure Dragon Race. The Azure Dragon King is you, Xiao Chen. Your name is already entered in the royal genealogical record. Naturally, your bloodline is now the royal Azure Dragon Bloodline. Don’t look at how the other bloodlines appoint their kings. Those kings’ names are not entered into the royal genealogical record, so they are not true kings.”

The dragon spirit continued seriously, “Back then, although Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun lost, the royal genealogical records did not fall into the enemy’s hands. Whoever possesses it has the right to confer kingship. Now, only the Dragon Race possesses such a royal genealogical record. The other Great Desolate Eon races lost their royal genealogical records long ago.”

Xiao Chen felt slightly startled. Although he had been conferred the Azure Dragon King in the Kunlun Realm, in reality, that had been just a title.

Such a title did not bring any change. This time, Xiao Chen truly obtained this name. He acknowledged the ancestors and was anointed with a drop of royal dragon blood. From today on, he was the true Azure Dragon King and not just the possessor of such a title.

“You said that I have the power to confer kingship?” A bright light flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes as he looked at the royal genealogical record.

The dragon spirit said indifferently, “You are now the Azure Dragon King. Naturally, this royal genealogical record belongs to you. The Dragon Kings that are not entered into the royal genealogical record are fake kings. Even the Dragon Emperor is just a fake emperor.”

The power and authority to confer kingship...this is probably the most valuable treasure in the Azure Dragon’s inheritance.

Xiao Chen found this thought inconceivable. With this royal genealogical record, he now had the greatest trump card in obtaining the Dragon Emperor position.

“Come. Follow me to the inheritance hall.” When the dragon spirit spoke, the Ten Thousand Dragons Picture wall reappeared, isolating the royal genealogical record in that eternal darkness again.

Xiao Chen followed the dragon spirit down many turns before reaching the inheritance hall.

There were seven floors to the inheritance hall, and restrictions covered the entire hall, which exuded the Azure Dragon’s Dragon Might.

The familiar Azure Dragon’s Dragon Might gave Xiao Chen an intimate feeling that was very comfortable.

“Each floor of this inheritance hall has a corresponding supreme treasure. It might be an Alchemic Recipe, a treasure, a Cultivation Technique, possibly even all three. Only the first floor does not require testing. The remaining six floors require you to pass a test before you can enter,” the dragon spirit introduced to Xiao Chen as it pointed at the inheritance hall.

“Can I enter now?” Xiao Chen asked with some anticipation.

“You can.” The dragon spirit paused here before continuing. “However, only a few treasures will appear on every floor. The first floor will give you treasures based on your strength. As for the upper floors, it will depend on your performance during the test. The better you fare, the more rewards there will be.”

Finding it strange, Xiao Chen asked, “There is such a thing? Didn’t you say that all the inheritance here would be mine to use? Why the need for such a system?”

The dragon spirit laughed softly, “What are you thinking? Since this is the inheritance hall, naturally, it has to be passed down through the generations. Could it be that you want to empty out the treasury? Such a system is to ensure that my Azure Dragon Race never falls. As long as the bloodline exists, it can rise. You are now the Azure Dragon King. In the future, you will be the Dragon Emperor. You will have the responsibility of replenishing the inheritance hall.”

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. This makes sense. He headed for the inheritance hall without saying anything more.

When the invisible restrictions sensed the royal Azure Dragon bloodline in Xiao Chen’s body, they did not stop him, letting him enter unhindered.

“This is?”

On the inheritance hall’s first floor, a stele in the center had a weapon stabbed into its top—a black saber!

Xiao Chen felt excited. Although his Tyrant Saber had been reforged several times and was already comparable to an Inferior Grade Soul Tool, it was still a Dao Tool and not a Soul Tool.

Using a Dao Tool would be somewhat inappropriate for a Rank 6 envoy inspector.

Xiao Chen walked over with long strides. Then, he saw the words “Heavenly Slayer” on the stele.

“Heavenly Slayer? Is your name Heavenly Slayer?”
