Chapter 1464: Chapter 1464 Dawn of Hope
When hope suddenly appeared, and so vividly, how could these old dragons remain calm inside?
The aura within them surged upward as they boiled with emotion. Once upon a time, they dared not fully utilize their dragon power, for doing so would accelerate the consumption of their lifespan. Yet now, under the stimuli of this domain, they found their dragon power could once again reach its peak. Remarkably, there was no sensation of life force depleting along with it. Subtly, under the influence of the domain, their bloodlines began to undergo a transformation.
For beings of their cultivation level, this transformation was not intense. Nevertheless, the appearance of any transformation was already the greatest joy.
Just as Hou Dingzhong had previously told Lan Xuanyu, his domain might provide the greatest boost to the lower-rank Dragon Clan, but it was the improvement of cultivation that was most critical for these old dragons. This situation allowed them to experience an upward evolution they hadn’t felt in many years! Even a slight enhancement in their bloodline would improve everything about them, offering a renewed sense of hope in which they could search or await the arrival of light.
Hou Dingzhong was experiencing this for the second time. Compared to the first instance, while Lan Xuanyu’s domain was more intense this time, it was not as sensitive as before. Yet, his heart swelled with emotion and true gratitude!
After Lan Xuanyu left, Hou Dingzhong meditated for some time, clearly sensing the reactivation within his bloodline. He couldn’t determine precisely how many more years this vitality would grant him. Yet he was certain that as long as this vitality remained, he could not die. Essentially, he could no longer foresee the end of his life.
For these old dragons, this was exhilarating. They rushed to awaken their old companions, who had long been in deep isolation, resigned to death.
Among them, Zhang Chujia was the oldest. Her current seclusion was a true preparation for death; she had even arranged her will, planning the handling of her remains.
Therefore, when Hou Dingzhong awakened them, Zhang Chujia nearly attacked him out of anger. Yet, detecting the rejuvenation in Hou Dingzhong, they calmed down—shocked rather than joyful.
However, they didn’t immediately revel in joy. Having lived for thousands of years, their hearts were unshakably steadfast. What worked on Hou Dingzhong might not work for them. Until they genuinely felt change within themselves, they didn’t truly know whether this could succeed.
But now, everything was worthwhile. The effectiveness of Lan Xuanyu’s domain surpassed their previous imaginings, and despite their distinctly different attributes, it had similar effects on all four old dragons.
The activation of their bloodlines progressed subtly. Their withered yet formidable dragon power was gradually gleaming once more. Earlier, they were merely isolated, living dead; now, they felt truly alive again. It was as if new blood coursed through shriveled veins. This feeling was truly wonderful.
Zhang Chujia cared little for sheer longevity. Instead, what touched her most now was the restoration of life force and the subtle return of her youth. Was she becoming younger? Even if it meant a hundred wrinkles becoming ninety-nine, it was still rejuvenation!
Hou Dingzhong’s previous introduction hadn’t been exaggerated. She was once the number one beauty of the Dragon Clan, unquestionably an unparalleled goddess of her generation. Eventually, she married the Sky Dragon Leader of that time and, with her own strength, became the Secondary Dragon Leader. Not only immensely powerful, but also exceptionally charismatic.
Her story was shrouded in many secrets. For instance, that generation’s Sky Dragon Leader and Sky Horse Sect Leader almost fought to ruin over her favor. She was, indeed, a true legend.
While the older generation of dragon knights had largely dissipated, even among the Dragon Clan’s newer generation, those of advanced age knew her reputation. In terms of status, the Sky Dragon Leader ranked supreme, but in terms of popularity and esteem, if Zhang Chujia appeared, she was the true leading figure of the Dragon Clan. The Sky Dragon Leader would greet her with, “Mother!”
Yes, Hou Dingzhong hadn’t said this before: the current Sky Dragon Leader was the only child she bore over a millennium ago. This is why Hou Dingzhong showed little respect for the Sky Dragon Leader, considering his higher seniority and friendship with Zhang Chujia.
Although Lan Xuanyu didn’t know all this, he felt Zhang Chujia’s esteemed position within the Dragon Clan. Thus, he poured out his maximum effort. The three Great Nine-Colored Dragon Cores in his body operated continuously, supplementing himself while maintaining the Divine Dragon Illumination Field at its peak.
For Lan Xuanyu, not only was there no excess consumption, but he felt extremely comfortable. Ten Heaven-nourished Crystal Stones were provided!
These Crystal Stones contained immense life energy, with a taste of creation embedded within. Even with his achieved Dragon God’s bloodline, Xuanyu couldn’t yet grasp the ultimate attributes of creation and destruction. The life energy enriched with creation improved his cultivation better than practice in the Dragon Realm. But the Heaven-nourished Crystal Stones were exceptionally valuable; using just one for self-cultivation satisfied him greatly, but now there were ten.
Using all ten together caused some waste, yet their creation’s flavor was undoubtedly at its strongest. With such prodigious life energy assistance, Lan Xuanyu’s cultivation speed naturally accelerated significantly. Releasing the domain was merely activating his soul skill in the cultivation process; it marginally reduced his cultivation speed, yet its toll on him was negligible.
Time ticked by second by second; the light on the old dragons’ bodies flickered, sometimes dim and sometimes bright. Yet, their aura was now different from when Lan Xuanyu first arrived. It became lengthier, smoother, no longer a mere ghost of previous vitality.
Low heartbeats were faintly audible, emanating from the four old dragons. The aura of their bloodlines visibly evolved.
The cultivation of Super God Level was tremendously powerful. The stimulation of their bloodlines by external forces meant the domain’s level matched but its intensity lagged far compared to their own cultivation, so they could only gradually stimulate each part of their bloodlines.
The most significant concern was Lan Xuanyu’s capability to maintain the domain, for the first transformative and evolutionary experience would certainly yield the best results! Strike in one go, then decline in morale and cease. Finding such a lifeline, they would not relinquish it!
Thus, with a wave of her hand, Zhang Chujia sent out another ten Heaven-nourished Crystal Stones to land beside those Lan Xuanyu had arranged before, saturating the chamber with life energy practically so dense it felt like liquid.
Although Lan Xuanyu couldn’t absorb such immense life energy at once, he felt the gesture. With such generosity, the Heaven-nourished Crystal Stones wouldn’t be retractable in courtesy; he had to put on some performance.
Thus, Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath, ingesting a great amount of life energy, and then, the seven-colored light rays surrounding him grew even stronger. The Dragon God’s Undying Body and Dragon Vigorous Qi unfurled.
