Chapter 1434 - Living Imprint
Throw the Lightning Spirit into the Lightning Pool? What was he trying to do?
“It is a test to see if the creatures at the bottom of the pool are creatures or imprints. There are many legends regarding Lightning Spirits, that they are born within heavenly tribulation. Meanwhile, this Lightning Pool is the same, having some connection.” Great Elder said calmly.
Lightning Spirit, there were only three throughout the world, and they were all in Shi Hao’s hands. These things Wang Family obtained through great effort ended up shifting owners in the end.
This was a terrifying type of creature. If they really grew up, they would possess the strength to sweep through all enemies!
Shi Hao had been thinking about how he was going to make these three bugs submit all this time, how to convert them. Now that Great Elder came, it was the perfect time to ask him for guidance.
However, no matter what, he never expected him to say that he should directly throw one into the Lightning Pool first.
“Wait a bit, let me take out a bit of Lightning Tribulation Liquid first…” Shi Hao muttered. He really didn’t want so much precious liquid to be ruined by this bug.
“Right! If we really throw it inside, I don’t dare drink it anymore, it’ll be too dirty!” The Lunar Jade Rabbit hurriedly nodded.
Great Elder was completely still, not saying anything.
“Gudong gudong…” The liquid in the Lightning Pool was poured into a bone cauldron, not much left behind.
However, it still gave one a deep and immeasurable feeling, as if it was an abyss. The True Dragons at the bottom of the pool were still just that indistinct, unable to be seen clearly.
Jiu jiu!
The Lightning Spirit was crying out, extremely unwilling. However, Shi Hao held that golden one, directly throwing it inside.
What was shocking was that this chopstick length golden Lightning Spirit, even though it was furious and unwilling in Shi Hao’s hands, when it entered the Lightning Pool, it immediately cheered excitedly, continuously jumping about.
It produced many sparks, in the end even more so directly throwing itself into the bottom of the pool.
En?
Everyone was shocked. It actually threw itself towards the True Dragons, as if they were its prey.
Shi Hao, Fatty Cao, and the Heavenly Horned Ant were all stupefied. It wasn’t that they didn’t know how ferocious the Lightning Spirits were, but it actually dared attack the True Dragons? Just how savage was this?!
“I really am starting to become suspicious. Are they really young True Dragons? The Lightning Spirit actually wants to eat it! It’s too strange!”
Inside the Lightning Pool, water splashed about. The Lightning Spirit disappeared in an instant, turning into a streak of golden light, rushing at a True Dragon, throwing itself over.
However, something shocking happened. The True Dragon youth was not eaten, instead merging with it, the two as if becoming one, swimming about there.
When this type of conclusion was produced, everyone became a bit disappointed and frustrated, feeling a bit regretful.
“How did this Lightning Spirit merge with it? It is almost like a body and its shadow, following it as it moves.” Cao Yusheng said.
“I suspect that the Lightning Spirits aren’t true complete bodies, but rather still evolving. Otherwise, why are they this rare, impossible to find in this world?” Great Elder Meng Tianzheng said.
Shi Hao and Cao Yusheng were both stupefied. Then, after thinking for a bit, they became incomparably shocked.
“Senior, don’t tell me you are saying that there are no Lightning Spirits, this type of creature to begin with, it is a special state of a certain type of creature?!” They stared at Great Elder, eyes burning fervently.
This was especially the case with Shi Hao. He grabbed that silver and red Lightning Spirit, carefully examining them.
The two Lightning Spirits screamed, continuously struggling. They were like snakes, but were too formidable, daring to attack anything. They didn’t fear lightning tribulation, extremely heaven-defying.
“If they produce horns, reveal some claws, wouldn’t they just be True Dragons?” Cao Yusheng muttered.
It was because they seemed to be even a step further than Flood Dragons. When carefully examined, their bodies all had many dragon patterns, extremely strange, making their body incredibly sturdy.
Everyone became stunned, a bit stupefied. This shouldn’t be some type of intermediate state of a True Dragon, right?
“Is that so? Let me take a look. I’ll beat the crap out of them!” The Heavenly Horned Ant cried out, throwing himself over, wishing to fight with them.
“This is just a speculation. Since they all originated from lightning tribulation, there has to be some connection between them. They might not be young True Dragons, just that they can evolve in its direction.” Great Elder said.
Based on what he said, all creatures, regardless of whether they were lower life forms or vicious beasts, when evolved to the extreme, could make a choice. They could advance towards a True Dragon!
Among them, the most who chose this were snakes and Flood Dragons. Under normal situations, the end goal of their lives was to evolve into True Dragons, become perfect bodies!
“What a coincidence, there are three Lightning Spirits, while the Lightning Pool also has three True Dragon imprints.” The Lunar Jade Rabbit muttered.
“The so-called dao to one, one to two, two to three, three to all life, there is naturally reasoning hidden within.” Great Elder nodded.
He was quite easygoing here, as if he was just an ordinary elder.
However, if this was in the outside world, as long as a bit of pressure was revealed, even those as powerful as Self Release Realm great knights would tremble with fear, involuntarily kneel down and kowtow before him.
A true supreme being, in the mortal dao realm, could be considered unmatched in the heavens above and earth below.
For example, in this world, only the few individuals at Immortal Wang’s level could fight with Great Elder, contend with him, everyone else are too far off.
“Lightning Spirits, could it be that they really have a chance of evolving into True Dragons?” Shi Hao’s eyes were extremely bright.
“There is a chance, perhaps even more suitable than some snakes and Flood Dragons, but they will not necessarily truly become dragons. It is because these creatures are also powerful enough themselves.” Great Elder said.
The three imprints in the pool, for any creature who wished to evolve into True Dragons, were supreme treasures, completely priceless!
Great Elder repeatedly tested things, in the end coming to the conclusion that these were most likely left behind by the True Dragon!
“The True Dragon is known to be the most powerful creature, ranked first amongst countless creatures, there is naturally a reason for this. It is just that this race is too mysterious, their numbers pitifully few. Normally speaking, it is already amazing for one era to have one or two.” Cao Yusheng said. Everything he knew was read from bone books, some told to him by his master.
“That is why this clan, even if it has been wiped out for a period of time, there will still be snakes, Flood Dragons, and others who will evolve to that step, make up for the True Dragon’s vacancy.” Shi Hao said.
“However, it is quite strange. Did the last True Dragon disappear, or did it fall in battle? Or maybe it went to the origin of lightning tribulation?” Great Elder thought to himself.
They discovered True Dragon imprints in the Lightning Pool, the effects of this were tremendous!
“Why have I heard that there are True Dragon eggs left in this world, hidden in ancient caves filled with chaotic energy?” The Heavenly Horned Ant said quietly. It didn’t want to yield to this clan.
“Perhaps there are eggs left behind by a True Dragon, if they are born, it will signify the appearance of the most powerful race. However, after so many years passed, I fear that something unexpected might have happened, that we might not be able to see them again.” Great Elder sighed.
Then, he stared at Shi Hao, telling him that he had to make the three Lightning Spirits yield, keep them at his side. If the day comes when they have a chance of evolving into True Dragons, then that would be unimaginable.
If the True Dragons were to fully mature, then they would undoubtedly become Immortal Kings. Just this alone was enough to prove that their place as the number one race weren’t just words!
However, this race was too rare!
There were some who said that even if several dozen were born of this race, if they lived in the same era, unexpected things would happen in the end. Only a single one would survive, while the others would die or weaken.
That was why that single one, obtained the title of True Dragon.
Originally, they were called the Dragon Race.
Now, the word true was added.
Shi Hao asked Great Elder to examine the Lightning Pool, see if the True Dragon Precious Technique and other things could be comprehended, as that would be even greater. If there were other scriptures left behind by the True Dragon, then that would be unimaginable.
Unfortunately, even after Great Elder carefully examined it, he could only sigh. There were no scriptures.
“However, this is still quite frightening. This is not only the True Dragon’s methods, there are mysteries of heavenly tribulation as well. These three imprints seem to contain some laws pertaining to the source of life.” In the end, Great Elder’s expression changed. It was because after he carefully analyzed it, he actually obtained this type of conclusion.
This was just too shocking!
One had to bear in mind that even the imperishable and immortal were searching, all of them looking into this!
In the present world, no one could create life from nothing!
“Which is to say, in the future, even if creatures who aren’t snakes or Flood Dragons obtain this imprint, they still have a chance of evolving towards a True Dragon, become the true creature.” Great Elder said seriously.
Shi Hao and the others were shocked. This was the opportunity for life produced within the destruction of heavenly tribulation! It really was terrifying, actually having this type of miraculous effect!
This was the imprint the True Dragon purposely left behind while within rich life force?
“This type of thing isn’t inferior to immortal dao scriptures, perhaps even more astonishing. No wonder those of the restricted region were moved! It carries the dao laws of creation, if it really is seen through, it will be simply unimaginable!” Great Elder was incredibly serious.
Shi Hao naturally immediately asked great elder to comprehend it, because for the current Shi Hao, this type of thing was still too far off. The creation of life, this… was simply unimaginable.
Perhaps even supreme beings could only study it, far from being able to completely grasp it!
“Perhaps Lightning Spirits were also born from this type of imprint, but haven’t completed their evolution yet.” Shi Hao suddenly said.
This was a sudden thought he developed, but even Great Elder was stunned, his expression changing.
Then, they investigated the Lightning Spirits’ primordial spirit, wishing to discover some clues, at the same time obtain some mysteries regarding Wang Family. Unfortunately, the three Lightning Spirits were like white paper, not revealing any important discoveries.
Even though they were vicious, they were still young.
Putong!
The other two Lightning Spirits were thrown into the Lightning Pool as well. He looked towards Great Elder, asking him to please hold onto it.
Great Elder understood his intentions, Shi Hao wanted to leave it with him, for him to study it, go into seclusion, perhaps taking that step through this!
The Lightning Pool contained too many great mysteries!
“I truly am starting to wonder where the source of heavenly tribulation is. It is too extraordinary!” Great Elder said with a light sigh.
Then, he told Shi Hao that Wang Family paid a great price in Imperial Pass this time, and only then was peace maintained. Otherwise, some of the five dragons might have been sent out of the pass to fight to the death.
It was because the Lightning Spirits were sent out precisely by one of the five dragons.
“To atone for their crimes, the natural luck Wang Family has brought you is formidable. Together with this streak of divine radiance, your strength should be able to increase a great amount!” Great Elder pointed towards that streak of light in the Lightning Pool.
He planned to have Shi Hao subdue it, refine this streak of light. He was going to help him from the side to do so.
Great Elder produced a crystal, endless scarlet multicolored light erupting as soon as it was brought out. It was too resplendent, like a small red sun, illuminating this place. The entire tribe bathed in its brilliance.
This was a crystal the size of an infant’s fist, sealed within was a drop of blood, even more translucent than a blood diamond, the radiance it released more resplendent than anything!
“Immortal blood?!” Shi Hao was incredibly shocked, coming to this type of conclusion.
“Correct, however, it isn’t quite the same as what you’ve heard of or even seen before. This is living immortal blood, and not dead blood!” Great Elder said.
This was essence blood extracted from a True Immortal when it was still alive, all of the death energy refined away, moreover sealed with great methods, keeping the vitality of this drop of blood. It was just like how it was when it flowed within the immortal’s body!
In the past, Shi Hao really has seen immortal blood, but it was completely different from this drop!
Great Elder said with a sigh, “This is the blood of Immortal Wang father, the matchless True Immortal. The precious blood was extracted from when he was at his very peak, all destructive properties refined away, preserving the most exuberant life force, everything sealed within a life crystal. This thing is absolutely priceless!”
Zheng!
Then, Great Elder extracted the streak of light from the Lightning Pool, suppressing it with great magical force, not letting it act recklessly.
“This is the divine radiance released after the immortal killing guillotine scattered. If you refine it into your arm, or into one area of your body, once you take action, there will be nothing you can’t overcome, able to cut through everything!” Great Elder said.
At this moment, forget about Shi Hao himself, even Cao Yusheng, Lunar Jade Rabbit, and the others’ eyes widened. This thing was too shocking, invaluable!
It was not inferior to the Lightning Pool at all!
