"You've come …"
The divine dragon's voice rumbled through the empty space.
He Yiming nodded slightly and looked around. The surroundings did not seem to have changed at all compared to when he had left last time.
The divine dragon was still the same size as before. The Saints' Fruit and the core of the nest hovered silently above its head. A few invisible threads connected them to the space around them.
In He Yiming's eyes, all of this was still wondrous, but it was no longer enough to stop him from observing and studying it.
The divine dragon had channeled the energy of the unique world into the two items, allowing them to maintain a fixed frequency as they revolved.
Whether it was the Saints' Fruit or the core of the nest, they were both filled with a life force that people yearned for.
He Yiming had a feeling that there was only one reason why the two items possessed such great life force, and that was because the divine dragon had channeled the energy of the world into them. If the divine dragon stopped this process, perhaps it really would be as it had said. The two items would lose their effects.
Looking away, He Yiming bowed deeply to the divine dragon and asked, "Senior, how should I address you?"
"You can call me the divine dragon or the Five Elements Ancestor," the divine dragon calmly replied.
Although He Yiming already knew the answer, his heart still could not help but beat faster at that moment.
"So there really are people who can live for over ten thousand years in this world," He Yiming sucked in a deep breath and said with a heavy voice.
When he said these words, his heart was filled with strong emotions and expectations.
The two legendary true gods had actually lived for such an unbelievable amount of time, so would he be able to be like them and possess such an enviable lifespan?
As if he could read He Yiming's thoughts, the Five Elements Ancestor coldly said, "He Yiming, there is no human who can live for over ten thousand years."
He Yiming was slightly stunned. His mouth opened slightly, but he hesitated.
He looked at the Five Elements Patriarch's body and vaguely understood the Five Elements Patriarch's intention.
"The reason why I was able to survive was because I ingested the Saints' Fruit and the Neidan of the Dragon clan, which allowed me to transform into a dragon." The Dragon God heaved a long sigh and said, "I've already given up my human identity and continued to live in the form of a Divine Beast. No matter what, I can no longer be considered a human. But … if I hadn't made that choice back then, what you see today would be a pile of dirt in the Divine Tree Valley. "
He Yiming's eyes revealed a complicated expression. He already understood the other party's meaning. In the past, the Five Elements Ancestor must have slain the divine dragon before reaching the end of his life and obtained its Neidan. He then refined it with the Saints' Fruit and consumed it, forming a divine dragon's body in the end.
The lifespan of a Mythical Beast was extremely long, far beyond the limits of a human being. In order to survive, the Five Elements Patriarch had no reason to do so.
He suddenly thought of something and said, "Senior, since the Life and Death World was created by you, the Black Tortoise Shell inside should be left behind by you, right?"
"That's right. The Black Tortoise was one of the five Mythical Beasts that I killed back then. When I swallowed the Dragon Pill, he engraved part of his understanding of the world into the tortoise shell, waiting for fate. But in the end, it fell into your hands. It was indeed fate."
He Yiming nodded slowly. At this point, he also understood why the patterns in the Black Tortoise Shell were so mysterious and profound, as if they were all-encompassing. Moreover, some of the patterns were faintly connected to the Five Elements Manual. Now that the answer was revealed, he knew that all of this was the work of the Dragon God.
"According to what I know, the Black Tortoise has the longest lifespan among all the Mythical Beasts. Since you want to prolong your life, why don't you choose the Black Tortoise?" He Yiming asked in a deep voice.
The Dragon God laughed and said, "Although the Black Tortoise has a long lifespan, its strength is the weakest among the Mythical Beasts. Although I gave up the identity of a human, even if I want to be a Mythical Beast, I want to be the first Mythical Beast in the world."
His tone changed and was filled with a sharp and arrogant aura.
At this time, the Dragon God seemed to have suddenly become an unsheathed sword, shining with a light that made people not dare to look at him directly.
He Yiming looked at the Dragon God in high spirits and felt an indescribable emotion in his heart. This top human expert made such a choice at the end of his life. He really didn't know how to describe this matter. However, the only thing he could be sure of was that as long as this matter was publicized, it would definitely cause all the Supreme Dao experts to be surprised, and even cause a change in the whole world.
The brilliance in the Dragon God's eyes flickered for a moment, then he turned his head and said, "Have you killed the Holy Son of Darkness?"
He Yiming bitterly smiled and said, "I have killed the Holy Son of Darkness' clone, but the Holy Son of Darkness has hidden himself extremely well. Although I have completely wiped out the Isle of Gods, I still haven't found him."
The Dragon God sighed and said, "It's very normal that you can't find him. It's because he's no longer a human. "
He Yiming's expression changed slightly. He said in a deep voice, "But this junior has already released the power of the world and searched all the places within my power." He paused, then said resolutely, "There is absolutely no living creature there."
The Dragon God looked at him with interest and said, "Hehe, what do you think the Saints' Fruit is? There's only one place in the world that produces it, and it only bears fruit once every ten thousand years. The Holy Son of Darkness is powerful, but how can he steal the Saints' Fruit from I? "
He Yiming was slightly startled, and the expression on his face suddenly became strange.
If the Holy Son of Darkness hadn't become a divine beast, how could he have lived for ten thousand years? Didn't the Five Elements Ancestor say that the lifespan of a human couldn't be so long? How could this person be an exception?
The Dragon God saw through his thoughts and chuckled, "Not only is the Holy Son of Darkness no longer a human, he's also not a living creature in this world."
He Yiming became more and more suspicious. He lowered his head and said, "Senior, I don't understand."
"It's actually very simple. His body has died long ago. What's left is only the strength of his soul."
The divine power on He Yiming's body suddenly surged. Although he had once again obtained a breakthrough, it had only been a short time. Suddenly hearing this inconceivable answer, he couldn't help but feel agitated. For a moment, he actually couldn't control himself.
The Dragon God furrowed his brows and gently blew. Immediately, the energy that He Yiming had inadvertently leaked out was completely nullified.
He Yiming took a deep breath and finally calmed down. He said with a heavy voice, "Senior, although the strength of the soul is strange and unfathomable, according to what I know, it's impossible for it to exist without the body."
"Regular gods obviously can't, but if you can condense the Light and Darkness Domain and form your own world within, you can extract the soul from the decaying body and attach it to the soul stone." The Dragon God said sincerely, "Under the protection of the world, his soul will weaken year by year, but his consciousness and soul will not be lost or destroyed."
He Yiming's expression became rather strange. He immediately thought of the Beast God Hall of the totem clan.
The souls of the many divine beasts there were attached to the soul stones. In the end, not only did they not perish, but they also possessed great power.
However, although the souls of those divine beasts were powerful, they didn't have individual consciousness. They were far less terrifying than the Holy Son of Darkness.
The Divine Dragon gently shook his head and helplessly said, "This old man saw that you had successfully condensed the power of the world and wanted to remind you. However, his puppet was one step ahead and completely destroyed this old man's puppet. Therefore, this old man is also powerless to do anything."
He Yiming raised his eyebrows. He finally understood why the masked man wanted to completely purify the cloaked man's body. He originally thought it was because of the hatred between them, but now he knew that the Holy Son of Darkness had long planned this.
If He Yiming knew the truth in the past, then the scope of his search would be greatly different. Perhaps he could really find the Holy Son of Darkness's hiding place.
After pondering for a moment, He Yiming asked with a dignified expression, "Senior, the Holy Son of Darkness has been sleeping on the Island of God for thousands of years. He didn't even respond to my many provocations. His soul power should be extremely weak. But if that's the case, why did he cause such a change? Could it be that the blood sacrifice array can help him recover to his peak? "
"That's right. Because his soul has consciousness, even in the World of Light and Darkness and the soul stone, it is constantly being consumed. However, if he can absorb a large amount of Evil Blood Aura in a short period of time, then his soul power can be improved. As long as this amount is enough, it is possible for him to recover to his peak state. "
He Yiming's expression changed a few times. He said, "Could it be that his soul power is really indestructible?"
The Dragon God laughed loudly. His heroic voice filled the entire space.
Even the two mysterious items floating in the void were slightly swaying due to the loud noise.
"In this world, there's no such thing as an indestructible power. If I hadn't entered the Land of Death and stayed in this world, then even if he had the body of a Dragon God, after thousands of years, he would have died without a doubt. Hehe, although the Holy Son of Darkness has grasped the power of the soul and has lived longer than me, it's impossible for him to be immortal. If he was still hiding on the Island of God, then he could still struggle at death's door and extend his life. However, absorbing the Evil Blood Aura to recover his soul power is like drinking poison to quench thirst. As long as the power he absorbed weakens again, then his consciousness and soul will truly dissipate. There will be no more luck … "
