Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

The Red-Scaled Fire Flood Dragon was a Third-Level Demon Beast. Its power was immense, comparable to the Qi Vortex Ninth Layer, and its physical strength was also extremely terrifying.

According to the Record of Common Wild and Demonic Beasts, its body contained a trace of True Dragon Blood. With just one more evolution, it could ascend to the heavens and become a Fire Flood Dragon King, its power rivaling that of a Yin Yang Realm expert.

Realizing this, Ye Wushuang broke out in a cold sweat. He was secretly relieved he hadn’t acted recklessly; otherwise, there would have been no escape for him today.

’But this creature really knows how to live, sleeping in Earth Core Spirit Milk.’ Relief aside, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but envy the beast. Earth Core Spirit Milk was a treasure that even the strongest experts would fight over, yet it had become the Red-Scaled Fire Flood Dragon’s nest. If he could cultivate in it, he was certain he could break through the Qi Vortex Realm in a single stroke.

At this thought, Ye Wushuang wanted nothing more than to kill the Red-Scaled Fire Flood Dragon and claim the Earth-Fire Spirit Milk for himself.

But he also knew that if he woke the Red-Scaled Fire Flood Dragon, he would likely be finished.

’Huh, what’s that...?’

Suddenly, as Ye Wushuang pulled his gaze away from the Spiritual Pool, a casual glance revealed a mysterious cave on the opposite side. His attention shifted toward it, and a spark of curiosity ignited within him.

After a moment’s thought, he carefully circled the Spiritual Pool and entered the mysterious cave. Just as he was about to take another step, a fiery red screen of light abruptly blocked his path. At the same time, a terrifying pressure, heavy as a mountain, bore down on him.

’A seal!’

Ye Wushuang’s heart skipped a beat. He stared intently at the fiery red light screen. He had heard of sealing Barriers before; they were a terrifying technique that only experts at the Spiritual Spring Realm or higher could deploy.

’Spiritual Spring Realm or higher? Don’t tell me the previous cave wasn’t the Flood Dragon Emperor’s Cave Mansion, and *this* is the real one?’

A thought abruptly surfaced in Ye Wushuang’s mind, and he was immediately reminded of the Flood Dragon Treasure Blood.

To test his theory, he tried to step through the light screen. To his astonishment, his foot met an impenetrable wall. No matter how hard he pushed, it was useless. Instead, a powerful pressure bore down on him.

Frustrated, Ye Wushuang pulled his foot back.

However, it wasn’t over. Deep within his Dantian, the normally placid Chaos Dragon Tomb suddenly gave a strange tremble. It instantly erupted with a vast, mysterious power that surged into his foot.

With a faint POP, ripples spread across the fiery red light screen. Ye Wushuang felt the resistance under his foot vanish. He took a step forward, and his momentum carried his entire body through the barrier.

’This Big Glutton actually helped me break the seal!’ Ye Wushuang was stunned and completely surprised. He quickly sent his Divine Sense deep into his Dantian, but the Chaos Dragon Tomb had already fallen silent, standing agelessly within his Chaos Dantian, mysterious and vast.

’One day, I’ll figure you out,’ Ye Wushuang thought with a frown as he observed the now-silent Chaos Dragon Tomb. He withdrew his Divine Sense and began to survey the cave before him.

He didn’t know if this was the true Flood Dragon Cave Mansion, but now that he was inside, he had to find out.

His mind made up, he strode into the passage without hesitation. This tunnel was half the size of the previous one and only a few hundred meters long. Before long, he reached the end.

At the end of the tunnel was not another cave, but an ancient, fiery red palace forged entirely from Fire Jade. Several lifelike True Dragons were engraved upon its surface, glaring at the heavens with domineering arrogance!

Ye Wushuang looked up. Engraved above the main gate were the words ”Flood Dragon Palace,” confirming that this was the true Flood Dragon Cave Mansion.

’I can’t believe I stumbled my way into the real Flood Dragon Cave Mansion!’ Ye Wushuang smiled to himself. He walked to the gate, took a deep breath, and gently pushed the palace doors open, keeping his Divine Sense on high alert for any surprises within.

ROAR!

Disaster struck. The instant Ye Wushuang pushed open the gates, a sky-shattering dragon’s roar erupted from within. It was immediately followed by a vast, violent pressure that surged toward him like a tidal wave.

Even though Ye Wushuang was prepared, and even though he used Floating Light and Shadow to retreat over ten meters the moment the danger appeared, the terrifying pressure was simply too powerful. It flung him through the air, and he crashed into one of the palace’s jade pillars.

COUGH! COUGH! COUGH!

Ye Wushuang’s chest tightened, and the blood roiled within him. He nearly coughed up a mouthful of it.

When he came to his senses, he extended his Divine Sense into the palace. In the center, he saw a fiery red ball of light, like a Little Sun, so brilliant and dazzling it hurt to look at.

ROAR!

ROAR!

Two flame True Dragons, each over ten meters long, roared ferociously as they circled the ball of light. Waves of terrifying, utterly domineering pressure radiated from them.

’This is Dragon Power!’

’Could this be the Flood Dragon Treasure Blood?’

Ye Wushuang stared fervently at the fiery red orb floating in the center of the palace. He was shocked, but also doubtful. After all, Flood Dragon Treasure Blood shouldn’t be able to unleash such terrifying Dragon Power.

’Wait, no, this isn’t Flood Dragon Treasure Blood. It’s...!’

Suddenly, a thought struck Ye Wushuang, and his face lit up with brilliant joy. The Dragon Power he had just felt was identical to the pressure emitted by his Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon Blood. This meant that what lay before him wasn’t Flood Dragon Treasure Blood, but something that even Nirvana Realm experts would go mad for... True Dragon Blood!

In an instant, Ye Wushuang’s eyes burned with feverish greed. He walked into the palace, one step at a time. Since he cultivated the Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique, the Dragon Power in the palace didn’t repel or suppress him, which greatly boosted his confidence.

’It really is True Dragon Blood!’ Gazing at the floating orb from up close, he could see a drop of crimson blood the size of a fingertip suspended within. The halo of light emanated from this single drop. Ye Wushuang was absolutely certain this was True Dragon Blood.

’I cultivate the Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique. If I devour this drop of Dragon Blood, I’ll undergo a massive transformation. It would be a crime against the heavens not to take it.’ Ye Wushuang’s eyes were locked on the True Dragon Blood. He eagerly activated his Divine Sense, intending to pull the blood into his True Dragon Space.

RUMBLE!

Sensing Ye Wushuang’s Divine Sense, the drop of True Dragon Blood trembled violently and erupted with powerful resistance.

’It’s just a single drop of Dragon Blood. Do you think you can overturn the heavens? Be suppressed!’ Ye Wushuang’s temper flared. With a domineering roar, his entire presence sharpened like a blade. His own blood boiled as the might of the Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon surged forth, powerful enough to suppress the entire world.

The Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon was a Taichu Emperor Dragon. Its Emperor’s Might was vast and held a natural suppressive power over the rest of the Dragon Race, to say nothing of a mere drop of Dragon Blood.

Instantly, sensing the superior pressure, the drop of True Dragon Blood ceased its resistance and was drawn into the True Dragon Space by Ye Wushuang.

Ye Wushuang’s Divine Sense followed it inside. Only after seeing the drop of True Dragon Blood floating safely in the void did he withdraw his Divine Sense, relieved.

’I never imagined a Divine Object like this would be in the Flood Dragon Cave Mansion. No wonder that Flood Dragon Emperor was so monstrously powerful. If he were still alive and cultivated with this drop of Dragon Blood, in less than ten thousand years, he would have surely become a True Dragon, roaming the heavens and earth with absolute power.’

Ye Wushuang thought this to himself, unaware of the full story. The Flood Dragon Emperor had originally obtained this drop of Dragon Blood and was preparing to enter a long, secluded slumber for cultivation. However, he fell into conflict with the Dragon Slaying Elder and was ultimately killed, leaving this treasure for Ye Wushuang to find.

Of course, he didn’t begin the Refinement process immediately. The energy within this single drop of Dragon Blood was far too immense. He needed to find the right opportunity to devour it. When he did, his strength would increase dramatically, enough to handle all sorts of fatal threats.

At this thought, he couldn’t help but exclaim internally, ’Awesome!’

’Huh, what’s that over there?’

After stowing away the True Dragon Blood, Ye Wushuang scanned the palace with his Divine Sense. His gaze was suddenly drawn to an object in a corner. He had been so focused on the True Dragon Blood that he had completely overlooked it.
