Darryl was shocked. He took a deep breath, and he continued to read. “The tribes suffered heavy losses in the battle, and I had to summon the Divine Dragon… Finally, we succeeded…”
The more Darryl read about it, the more shocked he was.
It turned out that things did not go well when the Yellow Emperor exiled the Raksasa Tribe into the wilderness. The Raksasa Tribe was very powerful, and they put on a strong resistance, resulting in heavy casualties among both sides.
In the end, the Yellow Emperor had to summon his enchanted beast—the Divine Dragon before he finally defeated the Raksasa Tribe, but the dragon was also injured and eventually died.
The Yellow Emperor was heartbroken. Before its death, the Divine Dragon left behind two treasures from the dragon’s bloodline. Nothing more was mentioned about the two treasures.
After he read the words carved on the stone chest, Darryl knew that those two treasures were related to the bloodline of the Divine Dragon. The Yellow Emperor ordered for two stone boxes to be made to keep the treasures separated. One of the boxes was left in the cave near the Chaotic Mountain Range, where Darryl was. It was placed there to guard the mountain range.
As for the other treasure, the Yellow Emperor handed it to a tribe and sent them off to the vast sea to set the treasure on the seabed to seal it there. That way, it was possible to maintain the treasure’s aura.
The words on the stone chest ended with, and Darryl read it, “As long as you find the two treasures, you can unlock the strongest power inherited from the Divine Dragon’s bloodline. You’d be able to ward off the Raksasa Tribe if they were to return to the nine continents and harm the people.”
Darryl felt that his brain buzzed after he digested the information. He was excited.
It was as expected from the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan, who was a great strategist. He knew that the Raksasa Tribe would return to the Chaotic Mountain Range one day and cause havoc there, so he deliberately left something behind!
‘The bloodline of the Divine Dragon… Is it really a dragon?’ Dragons did exist thousands of years ago, but they had disappeared from the nine continents. Was it because of the fierce battle with the Raksasa Tribe that the dragons went extinct?
Darryl’s hands trembled as he thought of all the possibilities. He opened the stone chest.
Gasp!
The moment he opened it, Darryl was stunned to see the contents inside it. He drew in a sharp breath of cold air.
There was a crystal clear bead in the stone chest, and the bead was the size of a fist. It gleamed in a colorful luster. Darryl could sense the mystical aura of heaven and earth in it.
The mystical aura was thicker and more potent than what Darryl had felt—it was so pure…
Roar!
The moment he held the bead in his hand, Darryl heard the sound of a dragon’s roar from the core of the bead.
‘Was that a dragon’s roar?’
Darryl froze in place as he stared at the bead in his hand. He did not know if he was excited or shocked. Then, he suddenly realized something.
The bead was a dragon ball. It contained the essence of the Divine Dragon. Obviously, it was the essence of the Divine Dragon that had belonged to the Yellow Emperor.
Darryl laughed.
Why would he fear the Raksasa Tribe when he had that?
Darryl was excited and elated. Then, he was reminded of the other treasure. He had found one of the two treasures, but where was the other one?
The words on the stone chest were very clear. Another treasure had been taken to the sea. Darryl wondered how he could look for it in the vast ocean.
Darryl muttered to himself. Then, he decided to stop thinking about it and put the dragon ball away. He sat cross-legged once again and resumed his cultivation.
His priority was to break through to the Heaven Ascension level as soon as possible and then resist the attack from the Raksasa Tribe. As for the second treasure, he would find a solution later!
Buzz!
Soon, Darryl entered the cultivation state, and a wave of brute strength spread out again. It was terrifying.
…
Meanwhile, at the foot of the Chaotic Mountain Range.
