In the world of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, in a hall of the Hundred Herb Hall's secret realm.
"This pain, here, here … Right here, I feel like ants are biting my muscles, bones, and flesh. It hurts so much."
Huang Xiaotian's cries rang out as he continuously exhaled a breath of cold air. Evidently, the pain in his body was unbearable. Coupled with his carefree personality, he naturally screamed.
At this moment, Huang Xiaotian was no longer as tactful as he used to be. All that was left was grief. The dragon egg had caused him too much damage, and the dragon might had penetrated his bones.
Not only that, but his natal beast, the Golden-marked Demonic Bear, which had inherited the ancestral blood of the Great Earth Bear, had been completely burned away. It could no longer be called a Golden-marked Demonic Bear. Now that its ancestral blood had been burned away, it could only be called an ordinary demonic bear.
Without the ancestral blood of the Great Earth Bear, although there was no change in its cultivation level, its strength had plummeted. Demonic beasts were originally a race that relied on their bloodlines. Without their bloodlines, they naturally had no potential.
At this moment, a gray bear with a weak aura lay on the ground beside Huang Xiaotian. Its aura was weak. If not for this demonic bear blocking a large portion of the dragon might, Huang Xiaotian might not have been able to last until he returned to the tribe.
"Fourth Senior Brother, where does it hurt? Yuan 'er will massage it for you. Yuan' er doesn't want the Blue Luan anymore. I just want you to get better."
A young, sobbing voice rang out. Zi Yuan leaned against Huang Xiaotian, her eyes brimming with tears as she nervously grabbed onto Huang Xiaotian's beast robe.
"Ah …" However, in the next moment, Huang Xiaotian suddenly cried out in shock.
"Fourth Senior Brother, what's wrong?" This cry also made Zi Yuan cry out, her eyes filled with anxiety.
"Little Junior Sister, take your hand away." Huang Xiaotian could not help but shout as he cried out.
"Little Junior Sister, you're really my nemesis!"
Zi Yuan's small hand pressed against his muscles and bones. A majestic dragon might seeped into his body, causing his muscles, bones, and flesh to feel as if they were being bitten by ants. Now that Zi Yuan had accidentally pressed against him, he immediately cried out in shock.
"Yuan 'er."
In no time, Wei Yunwei grabbed Ziyuan's hand and said with a smile, "Fourth Junior Brother, you've always been mischievous in the past. Look at you now. You've offended me this time!"
"Senior Sister, I, your Junior Brother, have suffered such heavy injuries, yet you are still like this."
Wei Yunwei helped Huang Xiaotian up and laid him down on the stone bed. She watched as the corners of his mouth curled up in pain. However, she withdrew her smile and became serious.
"Fourth Junior Brother, don't be so reckless next time. Luck doesn't always favor you."
As the Goddess of Providence, Wei Yunwei had a deeper understanding of the power of providence. As the saying went, the more one understood, the more one would discover their ignorance. The mysteries of providence were ethereal and boundless, and they were closely related to the legendary Great Dao of Destiny.
In the depths of the Great Dao, it was not just one's own destiny. One could even sense the providence of a race, the providence of a world, and change one's destiny.
Huang Xiaotian had obtained this opportunity by using the Providence Jade Slip, which was equivalent to snatching food from the mouth of a tiger. However, his providence was insufficient, which was why he ended up like this. Fortunately, although he was heavily injured, his life was not in danger.
If she had been present at the scene, even if her current strength was inferior to the five-star exotic beasts, she could still use the mysteries of providence to personally injure the three five-star exotic beasts, or even kill each other.
"Master."
When Xiao Chen's figure appeared in the hall, the few of them reacted and called out softly.
"Master, hurry up and check on Fourth Senior Brother. When will he recover?" Ziyuan ran over and hugged Xiao Chen's legs.
Buzz!
Soon, Xiao Chen waved his hand, and a hundred and eight green pills appeared in his hand. They were crystal clear, pure, and flawless. One could even vaguely see the green elixir.
He waved his hand again, and the hundred and eight pills sank into Huang Xiaotian's flesh, directly entering his limbs and bones. Zhou Tian's energy sea and twelve Heavenly Veins were released under Xiao Chen's control, instantly spreading throughout his body.
They replenished Huang Xiaotian's Battle Qi and repaired his internal organs and broken bones that had been burned by the Dragon's Might.
Green Jade Blood Replenishing Pills.
These pills were also obtained when he opened the cauldron to refine medicine. They were Heaven-grade pills, using the Heaven-grade spirit herb Green Jade Blood Replenishing Grass as the main ingredient. After the pill was formed, its medicinal power was gentle, and even ordinary Heavenly Building Realm martial artists could use it.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was water vapor floating above Huang Xiaotian's body. The water vapor was light blue, mixed with a faint golden divine brilliance, and there was a faint Dragon's Might.
Although this water vapor was extremely soft, it was like an endless ocean. It stirred up shocking waves in Huang Xiaotian's body, constantly battering his limbs and bones, and just like that, it wiped out the vitality in his body.
"Hmph!"
In the next moment, golden light shone on Xiao Chen's body, and a blood-golden Qi and blood entered Huang Xiaotian's body. This was the purest power of Qi and blood derived from Xiao Chen's Battle Body.
It immediately scattered the medicinal power of the hundred and eight Green Jade Blood Replenishing Pills that had entered Huang Xiaotian's body, and a majestic medicinal power suddenly gushed out, dispersing the Dragon's Might that had originally occupied his body.
It had to be said that the Dragon's Might was overbearing. Xiao Chen had consumed a total of one hundred and eight Heaven-level medicinal pills, but there was still a remnant of the Dragon's Might in Huang Xiaotian's body that did not disperse for a while.
"Alright, you'll be able to recover after resting for a while. As for the Dragon's Might that remains in your body, if you can refine it into your body, there might be unexpected benefits."
After withdrawing his Battle Qi, Xiao Chen let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Although this battle beast of yours has exhausted the inherited Manhuang Ancestral Blood in its body, its body is still full of Dragon's Strength. If you can refine the Dragon's Strength into your body, you might be able to benefit from this disaster and become a dragon-type beast, a Golden-marked Demonic Dragon Bear!"
Xiao Chen's gaze swept over the Demonic Dragon Bear lying on the side. Its huge body had collapsed on the ground, and he could feel the rampaging aura in its body.
Similarly, Xiao Chen did not favor one over the other. His hand once again shot out dozens of medicinal pills. These medicinal pills were blood-red in color and were refined with the blood essence of a ferocious beast.
They were used to replenish the Demonic Dragon Bear's Qi and blood, allowing it to resist the violent Dragon's Strength in its body.
"Master, what bloodline of the Dragon Clan did this disciple desperately bring back?"
The medicinal power of the one hundred and eight medicinal pills was shattered into the purest medicinal power, which seeped into Huang Xiaotian's muscles, bones, skin, and flesh. He immediately felt a majestic flow of Qi and blood in his body, causing the pain in his body to lessen. Therefore, he asked Xiao Chen.
"To be precise, it's not a dragon egg," Xiao Chen replied.
"It's not a dragon egg!" Huang Xiaotian exclaimed. He clearly saw a young dragon swimming in it.
"What is that?"
Everyone, including Wei Yunwei and Ziyuan, looked at Xiao Chen, especially Ziyuan. The light blue little dragon looked very young and adorable. If it were not for the fact that she could not move forward due to the dragon's might, she would have rushed forward and hugged it long ago.
"However, it's a dragon, a pure-blooded Dragon Clan. It's not like the flood dragons of the Desolate Land, but a real dragon. Although its bloodline is far inferior to the legendary Divine Dragons of the Desolate Land, it's enough to grow into a Dragon King!"
A trace of doubt appeared on the faces of the disciples. Xiao Chen did not delay and immediately said, "During the Desolate Land, Divine Dragons dominated the world. Generally speaking, Divine Dragons are divided into several races with different attributes and different divine might. For example, the Fire Divine Dragon."
"For example, the bloodline of the little Heavenly Horse is inherited from the Great Sun Saint Dragon, the emperor of the Fire Divine Dragons. It cultivates the path of extreme Yang, so the bloodline of the little Heavenly Horse is of a higher grade than that of ordinary flood dragons."
"And this azure crystal ball of light that Xiaotian said he brought back …"
"Master, Yuan 'er knows that it's a Water Divine Dragon, right?"
Ziyuan exclaimed loudly. Xiao Chen could not help but smile. He gently patted her little head and replied, "That's right."
"However, it's different. This crystal ball is actually a drop of Dragon Origin Blood from a powerful Giant Dragon. After countless years of evolution, it once again gained spiritual intelligence and became a new creature. It's a young dragon."
"A Crystal Divine Dragon!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Chen could not help but feel that his disciple was lucky to have such an opportunity. Although he did not know why this drop of Giant Dragon Blood had only gained spiritual intelligence after so many years, it was a great opportunity for the Gu Yuan Tribe.
A young dragon with the bloodline of the Crystal Divine Dragon!
"Of course, this young dragon isn't a real Crystal Holy Dragon. I'm guessing that it was left behind by a dragon with a purer Crystal Holy Dragon bloodline. It's at least a Dragon King-level giant dragon."
Just like the Great Sun Divine Dragon was the emperor of the fire attribute Divine Dragons, the Crystal Divine Dragon was the emperor of the water attribute Divine Dragons.
Even if a dragon with the Crystal Divine Dragon's bloodline was not pure, it was still purer than the Flood Dragon Clan's bloodline. This represented potential.
"Master, when can the young dragon hatch?"
Compared to the divine might of the Crystal Divine Dragon, Ziyuan was more concerned about when the young dragon would hatch.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen could not help but sigh. A large amount of energy was needed for it to hatch. Xiao Chen guessed that it was because it had too much potential that it needed too much energy. That was why it had not been able to hatch and had been obtained by other exotic beasts.
Soon, Xiao Chen looked at Huang Xiaotian again, and his eyes turned serious. This disciple of his did not hold back when he did things, following his heart and doing as he pleased. This was also why Xiao Chen liked him the most. Only when one was not bound by anything could one truly obtain what one wanted.
However, this matter was extremely dangerous, and the slightest carelessness could cost one's life.
"This time, I'm blessed by luck. However, I don't need any treasures in the next moment. Even if it's a real Divine Dragon, how can it compare to my disciple?" Xiao Chen's voice was solemn and filled with deep concern.
