Among the Chromatic Dragons, the Destruction Black Dragons left the most legends in Noscent. Whether it was the Evil Dragon that captured the princess, or the Evil Dragon that was overturned by a hero, the Evil Dragon in the story would always occupy a volcano with flowing lava, always spitting out a sulfurous Dragon Breath, and most importantly, they would always be a Destruction Black Dragon.
Yes, the Destruction Black Dragon Clan was so notorious in Noscent.
Even the pure-blooded Black Dragon of Destruction had escaped to an unknown plane after Charles the Emperor shattered the Throne of Life. Only some descendants with impure bloodlines remained in Noscent, but the Dragon of Destruction's infamy was already deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone in Noscent.
It was easy to imagine how shocked Lin Yun was when he felt the aura of a Destruction Black Dragon.
That was a Destruction Black Dragon, one of the legendary Chromatic Dragons. Once it matured, it would possess the power of the Heaven Rank. In Noscent, it would be an existence that few could rival!
'A Destruction Black Dragon actually fell here …' Lin Yun looked at the empty temple, speechless.
In fact, after confirming that this temple came from the Nesser Dynasty, Lin Yun had already guessed something. But because this result was too frightening, Lin Yun didn't dare to confirm it.
The Nesser Dynasty rarely built temples, this was completely different from the 3rd Dynasty.
Most of the members of the 3rd Dynasty's royal family worshipped the Haiba Dragon God. As the first Dragon born at the beginning of the world, the Haiba Dragon God loved wealth and sacrifices. The greater the wealth and the grander the sacrifice, the more the Haiba Dragon God would be happy. Thus, temples could be said to be everywhere in the 3rd Dynasty. Most of these temples contained shocking wealth. After the destruction of the 3rd Dynasty, it was unknown how many legends of getting rich overnight were created.
But the Nesser Dynasty was different.
The Nesser Dynasty was the Empire of Elves and Dragons.
Although the Elves and Dragons also believed in their own Gods, they never blindly worshiped them. At that time, no Gods' temples could be seen in Noscent. During the Nesser Dynasty, the Elves and Dragons built temples to commemorate their fallen companions.
Moreover, it must be those companions who had made great contributions and influenced an entire era.
It could be said that every temple of the Nesser Dynasty had an epic story behind it.
Back then, Lin Yun had once read the famous "Elegy of the Elves and the Wyrms" in the spacious and decaying library. It recorded the deeds of the Elves and the Wyrms who were able to enter the Divine Temple after their deaths. It was a true epic. Every one of them was an indescribably powerful powerhouse. Their names were still being sung by people after millions of years. Even the place where they died had become a sacred place.
Now, a temple of the Nesser Dynasty was standing here, and the aura of the Destruction Black Dragon was spreading within it.
This also meant that a Dragon of Destruction had once fallen at the place where the temple stood …
'Looks like I still underestimated the Merlin Family …' Lin Yun stood in the spacious temple and took a deep breath before walking towards the altar in the center of the temple.
The altar was over ten meters tall, and Lin Yun didn't know what kind of stone it was made of. As he walked up the stairs, he felt a scalding heat under his feet, as if he was walking on flames. At the top of the altar was a several-meter-wide platform, and in the center of the platform was a raging flame.
'This is …' Lin Yun was stunned when he saw that flame.
That was the heart of a Dragon …
To be more precise, it was the heart of a Destruction Black Dragon.
The Destruction Black Dragon's Draconic Might that Lin Yun felt before came from this burning heart.
'Hold on …'
As Lin Yun was inwardly startled, a strange sound echoed in Lin Yun 'ears.
"Thump, thump, thump …"
Hearing this powerful thump, Lin Yun 'face suddenly turned deathly pale. That Destruction Black Dragon's heart was alive!
Yes, it was beating non-stop. The 'plop plop plop' sound was so real and strange in this silent temple.
'No way …' Lin Yun rubbed his eyes, wanting to see it more clearly.
That's right, that Destruction Black Dragon's heart was really beating. Through the raging flames, Lin Yun could clearly see that the heart was sparkling and translucent like a black diamond. It was calmly and powerfully beating within the flames.
'Could it be that the key to fusing the Magic Arrays lies in this Destruction Black Dragon's heart?' Lin Yun carefully thought about it and felt that it was possible.
If he wanted to fuse the Magic Arrays, he would have to spend a lot of time and patience to slowly fuse one Magic Array after the other, or he would have to use incomparable power to forcibly fuse all the Magic Arrays.
And this Destruction Black Dragon's heart contained unparalleled power.
At this time, Lin Yun had already found a clue.
That's right, a millennium later, the Flame Ruler had most likely borrowed the power of this Destruction Black Dragon to fuse the nine Magic Arrays into one and step into the High Mage realm.
But …
'How did that power come about?
It definitely wasn't directly extracted … '
An adult Destruction Black Dragon was at least a Heaven Rank existence, not to mention a Destruction Black Dragon that could enter the temple after falling. That was already considered an epic powerhouse among Pureblood Elves and Chromatic Dragons. It might even be on the level of the Three-Headed Golden Dragon.
Even if it was only a heart, the power contained within wasn't something he could directly extract.
In fact, Lin Yun could clearly feel that the reason he was able to stand there unscathed was because the altar's power was suppressing the Destruction Black Dragon's heart. Otherwise, let alone standing there, he would have to face the indescribable Dragon Might of the Destruction Black Dragon if he approached the temple.
Directly extracting its power was no different from courting death.
'Oh right, Cousin …' As Lin Yun thought of this, he suddenly asked William Merlin, "How much do you know about the Merlin Family's Bloodline Ceremony?"
"Bloodline Ceremony?" William Merlin also felt the Destruction Black Dragon's Dragon Might, and his strength wasn't on the same level as Lin Yun's. Thus, he could only hide in the distance, hoping that his cousin's Bloodline Ceremony would be completed quickly.
After hearing Lin Yun's question, William Merlin froze for a moment before suddenly recalling that his cousin's grandfather had already left the Merlin Family a few decades ago, and he had heard that he had never planned on returning. He might have never mentioned the Merlin Family's Bloodline Ceremony.
"Drip a drop of blood on it …" William Merlin promptly shouted. After shouting, he was worried that Lin Yun wouldn't hear him, so he repeated, "Drip a drop of blood on that flame!"
"Drip blood?" Lin Yun was somewhat doubtful when he heard this answer.
'How could it be dripping blood?'
Normally, a ceremony to purify one's bloodline would require one to undergo some kind of mysterious baptism in order to achieve the goal of condensing the ancestral bloodline. A ceremony to drip blood on the Destruction Black Dragon's heart was more like a sacrifice …
Naturally, this doubt was quickly thrown to the back of Lin Yun's mind. After all, this was only his own opinion. There were countless kinds of mysterious ceremonies in Noscent, and he couldn't understand the principles behind every one of them. What he had just seen was only a conventional ceremony. Perhaps the Merlin Family's Bloodline Ceremony was a special case?
Moreover, even if it was a sacrifice …
How much effect could a drop of blood have?
As he thought of this, Lin Yun no longer hesitated and directly released a Wind Blade. Under the precise control of a High Mage, that Wind Blade swept past his left middle finger, and a drop of blood immediately flowed out. Lin Yun's left hand lightly shook, and that drop of blood fell into that raging flame.
Following that, an earth-shattering dragon roar resounded …
'What's going on?' Lin Yun's heart skipped a beat. That dragon roar was filled with boundless rage and unwillingness.
Unfortunately, before Lin Yun could understand what was going on, the shadow of a Destruction Black Dragon appeared in that raging heart.
"This …" Lin Yun's face suddenly turned deathly pale. Even if it was only a shadow, the Destruction Black Dragon's shadow definitely had world-shaking power. Let alone a 1st Rank High Mage like him, even if he became a 1st Rank Archmage, he might not be able to resist that kind of power.
Lin Yun subconsciously tightened his grip on his Spiritual Magic Staff.
But before Lin Yun could think of counterattacking, the Destruction Black Dragon's shadow pounced over, and it was followed by a world-shaking Dragon Roar. Lin Yun suddenly felt his vision darken as he was swallowed by that shadow.
Under the suffocating pressure of the Dragon Might, Lin Yun even lost the ability to think. Lin Yun faintly felt that he had entered a boundless world of darkness. That kind of feeling was the same as drifting in the Heaven Enlightening Plane. No, it was even more frightening and strange than that time.
Back when he was drifting in the Heaven Enlightening Plane, he still had the ability to freely control his body and thoughts.
But now, in the depths of the boundless darkness, not only was his body unable to move, but even his thoughts had become extremely slow. Even the most insignificant reactions were very difficult at this time.
