Everyone was making their final preparations. After returning to Heavenly Star Island, Xiao Chen did not show himself again.
As more and more cultivators poured into Heavenly Star Island, things became extremely complicated.
Many cultivators of different factions lived together in one city. It was hard to avoid conflicts. Clearly, it would be hard to manage this place with just the Dragon's Gate disciples. Fortunately, there were the three Primes holding down the fort.
There would not be any major disturbances, but small disturbances would come one after another.
Over the past few days, Mo Chen and Lan Tianji had struggled to maintain order, managing all this mess.
That was right, it was a mess.
Some of the remnant factions were Holy Lands, some were ancient Noble Clans, and some were people of the evil sects. There were also many loose cultivator powerhouses, from Sovereign Martial Emperors to ordinary Martial Saints. There were countless of them.
Anyone who saw this chaotic flow of people, the refugees that poured in every day, would think of one word: chaos!
This was not just an ordinary kind of chaos. The order that the Heavenly Starry Ocean had maintained for ten thousand years had been broken. It would be hard not to fall into chaos.
However, no matter how chaotic it was, they had to reorganize it. They could not allow it to fall into chaos.
No one knew when the Treasure Master would charge over. These remnant factions and scattered cultivators needed to be reorganized.
The upper echelon of the various factions argued nonstop. Some wanted to regroup and attack the root of the problem, eliminating the Treasure Master.
Some suggested that with the Blue Dragon King escorting them, everyone could safely retreat to Kunlun Mountain.
Everyone expressed their opinions, finding it hard to balance things out. Some wanted to live, and some could not bear to part with what they had built.
Even though Mo Chen and Lan Tianji were smooth and slick people, they could not stop working, not daring to waste any time.
After all, no one knew when the Treasure Master would charge over.
The sooner they sorted things out, the better to make use of these cultivators to defend Heaven Dragon City was the right path.
Originally, Xiao Chen thought that with the Blue Dragon Palace's Five-Element Absolute Sealing Formation, Heaven Dragon City should be safe.
Later on, he found out that the Five-Element Absolute Sealing Formation could not cover the entire Heaven Dragon City. At best, it could cover the area around the City Lord's Residence.
He had no choice but to change his mind and use another array formation in the Blue Dragon Palace, the Worldly Absolute Dragon Array, to defend Heaven Dragon City.
The Worldly Extinction Dragon Formation was a pure defensive formation. Its weakness was that it did not initiate an attack. The advantage was that the defensive barrier was strong. If there were cultivators guarding the nodes, the defense would be even stronger.
If it were at its peak, the Dragon's Gate disciples would have been able to block the attacks of these Immortal statues. Now, it was much weaker.
However, Xiao Chen had passed down the Yinyang Saber Formation, making up for the difference in offensive power.
Therefore, no one in the Dragon Sect was idle. Everyone started to move.
As for Xiao Chen, he naturally obeyed the old Dragon Horse's wishes. After returning, he immediately entered the Blue Dragon Palace.
At this moment, the old Dragon Horse led Xiao Chen to a medicinal pool in the Blue Dragon Palace.
The medicinal pool was bubbling with steam, and mist pervaded the air.
Just by standing at the side, Xiao Chen could feel the ferocious Medicinal Energy surging in the medicinal pool without even soaking in it.
The bubbling sounds were like ferocious beasts roaring and roaring. Xiao Chen could even vaguely see all sorts of desolate illusions in the mist.
That was a vast illusion with all sorts of mutated beasts roaring proudly in the mountains and rivers, fighting with the world.
There was a ferocious white tiger with wings on its back that could shatter mountains with one stomp. There was a white wolf with snow-white fur and proud eyes that stood on a glacier for five thousand kilometers.
There was a golden lion with nine heads and scarlet eyes. There was also a huge snake with a dim light radiating from its entire body.
That was an extremely terrifying scene. All sorts of mutated beasts fought with the world, with the world, and even with the gods.
With just one look, Xiao Chen found it somewhat unbearable. However, the Blue Dragon divine blood in his physical body stirred strangely. It felt like Xiao Chen's blood was burning, his entire body surging with essence blood.
The scarlet dragon seal representing the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor's inheritance above the Veritable Essence Energy lake in his dantian trembled slightly.
"This is …"
Xiao Chen showed a grave expression, sensing that this medicinal pool was extremely extraordinary.
The old Dragon Horse revealed a proud expression as it said, "This is a medicinal pool made from the essence blood of one hundred kinds of ancient ferocious beasts and three thousand kinds of Spirit Herbs.
"During the Great Desolate Eon, the pure-blooded Dragon Race ate raw meat and drank blood. The moment they were born, they would be baptized in this. Now, the pure-blooded Dragon Race is already extinct. The physical bodies of mixed-blood Dragon Race cultivators can endure the surging Medicinal Energy only when they reach the Veritable Personage Realm.
"Now, only my Blue Dragon bloodline can possess this ancient medicinal pool in the entire Dragon Race. The medicinal pools in the other Divine Dragon inheritance palaces cannot compare to this. "
Xiao Chen asked out of curiosity, "Why?"
"Because of the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor. Every time this medicinal pool is used up, he has to add in new ancient ferocious beasts' essence blood. The Dragon Race has declined, and there are very few opportunities to hunt ancient ferocious beasts on a large scale. In the Martial Epoch, only the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor managed this. "
The Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor!
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. Unexpectedly, the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor still had such horrifying means.
"In the future, you will know of the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor's fame in the Great Thousand Realms. He is the true legend of my Dragon Race. You can say that you obtained his inheritance. You are very fortunate and … honored. "
A light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as he asked, "However, when can I truly receive the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor's inheritance? Can I use it now?"
If he could use it, then the Immortal statues outside and the Treasure Master would not be a match for him.
The old Dragon Horse looked at Xiao Chen gravely. "Not to mention the fact that you are not strong enough to obtain the inheritance, even if you could, don't use it. There is a limit in this abandoned land. Once you exceed a certain limit, you will suffer the attack of the Heavenly Dao.
"If you do not want to die, don't ever use it carelessly. Also, don't use that Martial Technique that increases your combat prowess by ten times. Such Martial Techniques are forbidden in the outside world. If you injure the enemy by one thousand, you will injure yourself by ten thousand. It will leave hidden injuries in the physical body that are hard to recover from. "
Seeing that Xiao Chen did not seem to mind, the old Dragon Horse said sullenly, "Why is it called a forbidden art? It is because if you use it too much, you will forever lose the chance to become a deity."
When Xiao Chen heard that, he felt stunned. Unexpectedly, there were such severe consequences. Then, he thought of something and asked, "Is there really a deity?"
"Of course. Every Dragon Emperor of my Dragon Race has to be a True God before they can assume the position. If you cannot become a deity, you will lose the chance to become a Dragon Emperor. Then, everything will be meaningless. "
"I understand. However, where is the limit?"
The old Dragon Horse answered, "Right now, you have just entered the Veritable Essence Stage, not even at Small Perfection. As long as you do not break through the Veritable Essence Stage and enter the Yin Essence Stage, you will be fine."
Xiao Chen rejoiced in his heart. This meant that he still had a lot of room for improvement.
"As for the physical body, you have already cultivated the Blue Dragon Body Nourishing Art to the third layer. You have to do your best to cultivate it to Consummation."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I would like to. However, I do not have a Secret Treasure with a dragon soul. My cultivation speed is very slow.
"Before the seniors of the Dragon Race died, they would nourish this medicinal pool with the dragon soul. This is to protect the descendants of the Dragon Race from being possessed or injured by the remnant souls of ancient ferocious beasts. "
Xiao Chen felt slightly shocked. This small medicinal pool was much more complicated than he imagined.
"Let's not talk anymore. Enter the medicinal pool first and stabilize your cultivation. Do your best to stay here for a while longer."
The old Dragon Horse gestured for Xiao Chen to enter. Then, it slowly left, leaving Xiao Chen alone.
After glancing at the misty medicinal pool, Xiao Chen took off his clothes, revealing his well-proportioned muscles. Her fair skin looked somewhat delicate. However, the explosive power contained within her was even more ferocious than a clap of thunder.
"Plop!"
Xiao Chen gently landed in the medicinal pool. At first, he did not feel anything. After a while, he felt his entire body heat up, and his mouth dry.
As the Medicinal Energy permeated his body, the blood in his body started circulating rapidly like a gushing river.
Bestial roars came from his body, sounding horrifying and scary.
Xiao Chen was greatly startled. Such speed made it impossible for him to calm down. Not to mention entering a state where he forgot about everything else, cultivating his Cultivation Technique, and stabilizing his cultivation.
The ferociousness and tyranny of the Medicinal Energy far surpassed his expectations. Xiao Chen could not help roaring softly.
Either he refined this Medicinal Energy or he vented out this energy. Otherwise, there would be only one result — exploding and dying. "Boom! Boom!
Boom! "
Suddenly, Xiao Chen felt many ferocious beasts in the medicinal pool charging and biting at his physical body. When it rains, it pours. Bad news came one after another. Xiao Chen's face immediately darkened.
This is just the baptism of an infant dragon?
This is simply too strong. Xiao Chen felt somewhat suspicious. A medicinal pool of this level. If something goes wrong, he will die!
Calm down! Calm down!
Xiao Chen did his best to suppress the heat in his body and the anxiety in his heart. At this moment, there was no way out.
Unless he jumped out now.
However, that would not only be difficult, but it would also be a form of admitting defeat. He remembered that the old Dragon Horse told him to stay a while longer before it left.
If the other party knew that he would come out after jumping in, who knew what expression it would make?
However, what Xiao Chen did not know was that the old Dragon Horse and the other Item Spirits in the Blue Dragon Palace were all observing through a water screen in a meditation room at the side.
"Big Brother Dragon, isn't this too ruthless and risky? That is not the baptism of an infant dragon. It is the coming of age ceremony for an infant dragon! "
The girl in her prime could not help saying when she saw Xiao Chen's appearance, feeling some heartache.
"Risky? If I don't take risks, do I still have a chance? Back then, the Qing Emperor failed even though he was stronger than he was now. The situation now was even more complicated than ten thousand years ago. Xiao Chen's strength was not even comparable to the Qing Emperor's. There was only one result — failure. Not only will he die, but his friends and family will all die as well. "
The old Dragon Horse felt complicated in its heart. However, it still maintained an expressionless face as it spoke coldly.
The black-clad old man said, "Don't worry. Even if Xiao Chen finds out, he will not blame us, because he will not be able to bear the consequences of failure!"
That was right. Xiao Chen was not afraid of death. However, if his friends and family were all going to die, he would definitely choose to risk it all.
However, could the current Xiao Chen really endure this medicinal pool, which was originally used for the baptism of an infant dragon after it matured?
