C1068 Dragon Transformation
Hearing this, Fang Han looked astonished. "Why?"
Chen Jingxuan did not explain anything to Fang Han.
He did not announce the end of the trial, so the teams naturally did not stop. The scholars continued with their original plans and headed deeper into the mountain range.
This was because all the teams participating in the ancient dragon mountain trial didn't know that a victor had already appeared.
They didn't even know their own progress and could only desperately kill more demon beasts. None of them wanted to be behind the enemy lines.
After all, the temptation of the Ancient Dragon Blood was too great.
Everyone wants it.
"I don't need to explain it to you. You just obey."
Chen Jingxuan did not say why, but from the beginning to the end, he had never thought about explaining anything.
He was the eldest senior brother, and possessed absolute authority.
If he didn't say anything, others wouldn't have the right to ask.
"What do you mean? Didn't I tell you before? Whoever lights up the black curtain first will get the first name, and the corresponding training session will also end."
Fang Han looked at Chen Jingxuan's expressionless face, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
Chen Jingxuan, there's no need to do this.
Inside, there were scholars from the Four Great Holy Kingdom s and disciples of the Beast Master s. Although he was the head senior brother of the daoist sects, he could not afford to offend them.
Since it wasn't his intention, then it must be his master's intention.
But why?
Could it be that there was some secret hidden within the ancient Dragon Mountain?
Fang Han was dazed for a moment, but he quickly regained his senses.
If there were truly monstrous secrets inside, was that door using them?
However, what use was there to use a group of cultivators who didn't even have life and death realm?
Fang Han wanted to say something, but stopped himself, obviously wanting to say something.
Seeing that, Chen Jingxuan frowned: "If you really want to know, then ask Master."
There was a trace of impatience in his tone.
Asking me what I want is my master's idea.
He dotes on you so much, if you want to know, go ask him yourself!
Fang Han gritted his teeth and left.
He would not rest until he figured out the truth of the matter.
Fang Han rode on his sword and climbed a few mountains before finally arriving at a short cliff.
He lowered his Imperial Sword and continuously made his moves in front of the cliff, creating a few secret imprints.
A transparent light barrier suddenly appeared in front of him. The light barrier split open, and it was just enough for Fang Han to enter.
After entering, everything before them suddenly became clear.
There was no longer any low cliff, it was clearly a vast sect.
Inside the temple was a Taoist temple with the words "Hollow Jade Temple" written on it.
The Hollow Jade Temple was the place where the Dao Lord resided.
The disciples of the Dao Gate walked past. When they saw Fang Han, they would smile and address him as "Senior Fang Han".
Amongst the ten disciples of the Dao Lord, other than Chen Jingxuan who was the eldest senior brother, the rest were all of the same generation without a specific ranking.
They called each other by their first names as well, implying that they were equal.
But when other disciples met them, they would have to respectfully address them as senior.
Fang Han walked into the Hollow Jade Temple and looked up to see a person concocting pills.
"Chen Tao, you're concocting pills again?"
A smile appeared on Fang Han's face. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Be careful, the furnace is about to explode!"
When the person heard this, his previously focused expression tensed up as he cursed, "Fang Han, don't curse at me. This time, I won't explode. I —"
At this point, his aura became chaotic, and the pill furnace in front of him started to heat up, turning red all over.
Fang Han quickly turned around and left, his hands covering his ears.
Sure enough, after a few breaths of time, a huge "hong" sound was heard from the hall and the furnace exploded.
Chen Tao was also a disciple of the Dao Lord and was an expert in alchemy. However, he would often study some strange pills and put a lot of antidotes in the furnace to refine them.
He had indeed created quite a few pills, but it was common for a cauldron explosion to happen, and Fang Han was already used to it.
Every day or so, if the furnace was not blown up, Fang Han would still be puzzled.
"Fang Han, you destroyed my entire furnace of miracle pills and elixirs, you must compensate me!"
Chen Tao was choking with anger and shouted loudly.
However, Fang Han had already entered the depths of the Hollow Jade Temple.
"Master is currently in closed-door training to deduce a new kind of calculation. If I were to rush over to disturb him, it would obviously not be good."
As he neared the Dao Lord's secluded meditation facilities, Fang Han frowned.
However, he knew that Chen Jingxuan had always disliked him, and it was impossible for him to tell him the truth.
Even the temple masters within the sect might not say it.
If he wanted to investigate this matter, he would have to ask the Dao Lord.
"Whatever, I have to get to the bottom of this. I can't let them get into trouble like this."
Fang Han clenched his fist. Not only was Chu Yun his close friend, Eighteen Little Brother was also inside.
Also, there was Sky Policy General Feng Chen's son Feng Yanzhe, Tutor Bai's daughter Bai Kongzhao, Huo Mansion Huo Yunan and many other rich and powerful people's descendants.
If something were to happen to these people, the entire Holy Kingdom of Yaochi would definitely fall into an uproar.
After thinking about it again and again, Fang Han decided to walk forward and knock lightly on the door.
"Fang Han, what's the matter?"
An extremely unhappy voice came from inside the door.
His voice was neither hurried nor slow, but everyone could hear the impatience in it.
It was a good thing that the person knocking the door was Fang Han. If it was any other disciple, the Dao Lord would definitely punish him harshly!
"Master, I would like to ask about the Ancient Dragon Mountain Trial."
Fang Han hesitated for a moment, but still mustered up the courage to ask.
Even though the Dao Lord doted on him in all sorts of ways that everyone could see, Fang Han had a natural fear towards the Dao Lord and found it difficult to get close to him.
It was hard to say why, but perhaps it was the intuition and instinct in his heart.
All these years, the Dao Lord had taken great care of him. No matter what the benefits were, he would always secretly reserve a portion for him. If it was someone else, he would definitely be flattered.
However, Fang Han did not.
Every time he faced a Daolord by himself, he was filled with mixed emotions.
He wanted to get close to her, but there was fear in his heart.
After a moment of silence, he said slowly, "Come in."
Fang Han heaved a sigh of relief, pushed open the door, and walked in.
There was no light inside, only a ray of light shining through the cracks of the window, slicing the darkness in two like a sharp sword.
The beam of light fell directly onto the Dao Lord's face, making it seem very bizarre.
When the Dao Lord saw Fang Han walk in, he immediately put down the complicated algorithm in his hand and squeezed out a smile. "What do you want to know?"
"The dark curtain has clearly been lit up. Why hasn't Eldest Brother announced the end of the training and continued it?"
Fang Han asked, "What kind of secrets are hidden in the ancient dragon mountain? Why is eldest senior brother doing this?"
Although he knew that it was most likely his Master who was guiding him, he did not dare to point it out openly, and could only ask indirectly.
Hearing this, the Dao Lord laughed out loud, got up and walked to Fang Han's side, then touched Fang Han's head, "This is what I wanted. The reason why I did not end the Ancient Dragon Mountain Trial is because I wanted to use this as a strategy.
Fang Han shuddered as he thought to himself, As expected.
His master was controlling the entire situation.
"In the depths of Dragon Mountain, what exactly is there?"
Fang Han was extremely confused, and could not think of any reason to do so even after racking his brains.
"Deep inside the dragon mountain, there is an opportunity to form a dragon!"
The Dao Lord folded his hands behind his back, his expression calm. "The reason it is called the ancient dragon mountain is because a terrifying True Dragon once settled here. According to the annals, when this True Dragon descended into the small world, it was severely injured and it didn't have much longevity left. It had the strength of the Fly Wonderland and could not bear to die just like that, so it frantically captured the beasts in the small world and copulated with them, hoping to give birth to a powerful descendant! "
"However, his wish failed because those monstrous beasts could not even withstand the impact of his bloodline and their bodies were shattered before they were pregnant."
"Helplessly, he can only use his own pure bloodline to feed the demon beasts in this small world. This is also the reason why so many demon beasts possess the true dragon's bloodline!"2
"And the ancient dragon blood that we have collected comes from the body of this True Dragon. It's a pity that it's not pure."
"The demon beasts that were initially raised by the True Dragon bloodline possess half of the pure True Dragon bloodline and are extremely powerful. However, when these demon beasts give birth, the True Dragon bloodline will be diluted by half, with only a quarter remaining. When the demon beasts give birth again, only an eighth of the True Dragon bloodline will remain, and so on."
"After seeing this method, the True Dragon would lose all its hopes; before dying, he hid all the secret techniques he cultivated deep in the mountains and made six dragon crystals. Only by gathering all six dragon crystals can he open the cave and admire his method of dragon transformation, and he might even be able to break out of the cocoon to become a butterfly and transform into a dragon!"
At this point, the Dao Lord's eyes flashed with a brilliant light. He grinned and said, "Why should I go into seclusion to calculate the location of the cave? I want them to collect the dragon crystals and then bring them back to me!"
Fang Han was somewhat shocked, but he still asked puzzledly, "Master, we can do this kind of thing ourselves. Why do we have to invite them in the name of a test, with great fanfare?"
"That True Dragon was afraid that the place where it died would be deliberately destroyed, so before it died, it set up a formation. The entire mountain range was covered in sand and wind, and only cultivators who have reached not more than the life and death realm can step inside. Otherwise, the sandstorm will take the form of a life-stealing object, and it will pierce through your body and leave thousands of holes! There are many beasts within the mountain and there are also a lot of Reincarnation Realm. The strength of our disciples are not enough to contend against those powerful beasts. "
"Then, with Windsand as protection, even if they can get the dragon crystal back, how would Master be able to go in?"
The more Fang Han thought about it, the more he felt that his master's scheme was unfathomable.
He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
The Dao Lord's face suddenly revealed an intriguing smile. He raised his hand to caress Fang Han's face and said in a low voice, "Now do you know why your master has never allowed you to advance, right?"
