Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: The Future Dongting Dragon Sovereign_1

Translator: 549690339 I

After reaching the peak of the Essence Refining Stage and then proceeding with the Refining Essence to Qi Transformation, it can be said it’s a crucially important step in the path of cultivation.

Once this is completed and the Qi Transformation Stage is entered, a cultivator can generate Mana on their own.

Mana not only enhances the power of Divine Skills but also obtains various benefits when running Spells. Generally speaking, only when a cultivator steps into the Qi Transformation Stage, they truly complete the transformation from an ordinary person to a cultivator.

Having come this far, Shen Yuan naturally hoped to quickly complete the

Refining Essence to Qi Transformation, but the issue of the Sect’s Spirit Pool in the new player guide was stifling him.

Shen Yuan’s optimal solution was to find a natural Spirit Pool to complete Refining Essence to Qi Transformation, thereby completing the new player guide task.

“Maybe 1 should prepare for that Fubo Pond Dragon King’s Dragon Sovereign banquet and trade for a Natural Spirit Pool.

This thought flickered in Shen Yuan’s mind.

He glanced at Bai Xue, who was busily checking his body for any injuries,

picked her up, and put her on the ground, reassuring her:

“Don’t worry. I’m okay.”

Although Shen Yuan spoke in such a way, worry was still visible in Bai Xue’s

eyes.

However, another matter quickly drew Bai Xue’s attention.

That is, as Bai Xue pranced about on Shen Yuan, her four little paws, as white as gloves, were already covered in dirty blood, and her fur was not much better, although it wasn’t very noticeable due to its black color.

Bai Xue was immediately upset upon seeing this.

While she might be a little mischievous at times, she was very clean in nature particularly her four white gloves, which she considered a symbol of her feline superiority and carefully cleaned after every meal.

The blood stains now were absolutely intolerable for a clean-freak cat.

Her pair of different-colored pupils darted wildly about, and soon Bai Xue firmly set her sights on Shen Yuan’s fish tank on the ground.

Climbing up on the fish tank, Bai Xue unceremoniously used the water to clean her little paws, much to the chagrin and irritation of the golden carp inside.

Shen Yuan saw what was happening and wanted to stop her, but the commotion within the temple caught his attention.

He saw that in the grand hall of the enormous Dragon Sovereign Temple, the revered statue representing the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch had lost its usual splendor. Its dulled, sky-blue dragon eyes now seemed like ordinary rocks, devoid of their former divine charm.

And under the Dragon Sovereign statue, a frail figure slowly straightened himself up amidst coughing.

This was none other than Yu Changliu, who had attempted to attack Shen Yuan previously, only to be severely injured by him in return.

Had the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch not taken Shen Yuan into the remnant dream, Yu Changliu would have probably succumbed to his injuries.

Now, with the dispersion of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch’s remnant dream, killing Yu Changliu would be as easy as a thought for Shen Yuan. Nevertheless, he chose not to do so.

Yu Changliu had only performed his duties to safeguard the Dragon Sovereign Temple. Plus, Shen Yuan owed Yunmeng Dragon Monarch too many favors. As long as Yu Changliu didn’t initiate another attack, Shen Yuan wouldn’t fight him either.

Yu Changliu had resumed his old man demeanor from when he was half-human, half-dragon. The wound on his chest had stopped bleeding, but it still significantly affected him.

At this moment, he was panting heavily, disbelief apparent in his murky eyes.

“Why have you returned?”

“Dragon King! Why can’t I feel the Dragon King’s presence anymore?” The scene before him utterly upturned Yu Changliu’s perception.

As the temple priest of Dragon Sovereign Temple, Yu Changliu’s family was not ordinary.

Ten thousand years ago, his lineage was granted the True Dragon Blood Essence by the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, transforming them into a hybrid dragon clan. They have continued this legacy as the temple priests of the Dragon Sovereign Temple, passed down through generations.

During the period of Spirit Energy depletion, the semi-dragon bloodline inheritance of the Yu family didn’t manifest externally. The only difference between them and ordinary people was that they were slightly more robust.

The Yu family did not realize their own oddity, and they would only consider the records of their ancestors as legends.

However, the moment they entered the era of the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge, the semi-dragon bloodline within their bodies awakened, and the related inheritance memories would also be received by them.

Members of the Yu family who had awakened their bloodline would become the most natural priests of the Dragon Sovereign Temple, and they were the only ones who could communicate with the remnants of the Dragon Sovereign’s dreams.

It was precisely because of this reason that the Yu family was able to guard the Dragon Sovereign in the Dragon Sovereign Temple for thousands of years.

Yu Changliu did not believe in such legends in his youth, until more than half a year ago when the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge returned and his bloodline awakened. It was only when he received the inherited memories that he truly accepted his role as the temple priest of the Dragon Sovereign Temple.

As a temple priest of the Dragon Sovereign Temple, he would occasionally see fragments of the Dragon Sovereign’s dreams in his sleep, which made him increasingly revere the presence of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch.

In his eyes, the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch was an almost invincible being who could easily suppress any powerful enemy once the Monarch made a move.

However, today this conception which he treated as common sense was shattered.

Shen Yuan emerged from the remnants of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch’s dream. Despite being smeared with blood, his aura was even stronger than before.

in contrast, the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch had completely severed contact, even the residue of the dream’s aura that could be detected before had all dissipated.

How could a family that has served the Dragon Sovereign for generations accept this?

Seeing the broken state of Yu Changliu, Shen Yuan opened his mouth nonchalantly:

“The Yunmeng Dragon Monarch had perished thousands of years ago. Now the remnants of his dream have also completely dispersed. Your duty to guard the Dragon Sovereign Temple is over.

Since 1 have received the Dragon Monarch’s grace, if you still wish to guard the temple for the Dragon Monarch, 1 can give you some assistance.” Yu Changliu’s lips moved as if he wanted to speak but stopped several times. He really wanted to question Shen Yuan about the reason, but even after unleashing his half-dragon form he couldn’t even block a single attack from Shen Yuan.

The fact that he was not killed could be considered as Shen Yuan showing leniency and letting bygones be bygones. If he challenged Shen Yuan with questions, he might provoke Shen Yuan’s displeasure.

With his eyes trembling, Yu Changliu’s gaze gradually lost its shine.

However, right at that moment, from the corner of his eyes, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a flashing gold color, and he fixated his gaze onto the fish bowl.

The originally clear water in the fish bowl had been polluted by the cat washing its claws, but it could not hide the noble aura of the golden carp, who was the True Dragon Child.

Looking at the golden carp, Yu Changliu felt as though his own bloodline was being awakened, making him step forward subconsciously and want to bow down in worship.

“Who…who is he?”

Yu Changliu pointed shakily at the golden carp, locked in a stand-off with the kitten, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Shen Yuan looked at the golden carp, remembering the circumstance in which the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch had handed over the carp to himself.

Even though the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch had just asked him to bring the carp out and had not demanded him to do anything else, Shen Yuan felt obliged after this journey into the remnants of the dream.

Adding to this, Shen Yuan admired the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch’s trait of protecting all people.

Shen Yuan felt that there should be something left for the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch.

“He is the last offspring of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch.”

After a slight pause, Shen Yuan looked straight into the eyes of the ignorant golden carp and said in a matter-of-fact tone.

“And he is also the future Dongting Dragon King..”
