The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1545: The Dragon Clan

Qiangu Zhangting had already been in a comatose state for more than an hour. According to the diagnosis of the recovery-type soul master, the main cause of this was his state of mind. His physical injuries were not too severe, and most of the power from Tang Wulin’s Dragon Emperor Cut was blocked by Qiangu Dongfeng. Only a small amount pierced his skin, and he was a Title Douluo too after all. His own defense should have been adequate.

Qiangu Dongfeng was in a rush to manage numerous other matters, so Gu Yuena remained to oversee Qiangu Zhangting’s treatment.

Her heart was feeling uneasy. The Forbid Time-space, Dragon Emperor Cut was powerful, but it was the Thousand Flying Dragons, a domain over one hundred meters in diameter that had genuinely shocked her!

That came from the acknowledgment of the Dragon Clan. She had seen the bracelet on Tang Wulin’s wrist before, but little did she know that such respect was contained in the bracelet.

She finally understood the reason Tang Wulin was given this bracelet after watching the visions from through the Thought Concretization. She had figured out what Tang Wulin was doing when he disappeared for one thousand days and nights all those years ago.

After all, a human was not a member of the Dragon Clan, even if he possessed the Golden Dragon King Bloodline! Even so, he had managed to bury all the dragon bones in the Dragon Clan’s graveyard using nothing but his own blood, sweat, and tears, allowing them to finally rest in peace.

She could still clearly remember that the entire Dragon Valley was unstable at the time. She had refused to confront him back then, so she left the place in a rush as a result. Afterward, she was busy handling all sorts of affairs. He remained missing for a total of three years and over one thousand days. That whole time, there was no trace of him, and she was incapable of reopening the way to the Dragon Valley.

So, it turned out that he had been there all along. He had been quietly burying the remains of the entire Dragon Clan. The kindness that he showed to the Dragon Clan could not be described with a few simple words. He was far from being powerful at the time, and a human being’s lifespan was limited. One hundred years was considered the maximum for an ordinary human. Yet, he had used three percent of his life, withstanding the loneliness and desolation, while taking the trouble to bury over a thousand giant dragons there. Moreover, it was the three percent of his life that would have been a crucial period in his youth.

No wonder his soul power cultivation base had not elevated much when he returned after all that time. He had devoted all his energy to this task!

The friendly sentiment filled with gratitude was condensed into that bracelet by the dragon souls of the Dragon Clan. It was just like his protective talisman. No other Dragon Clan was allowed to offend him including the Break Evil Dragon. This was because he was the great benefactor of the Dragon Clan!

A complex idea formed in her mind, but she appeared very calm on the surface.

Suddenly, she heard some rather hoarse coughing. Qiangu Zhangting opened his eyes in slight confusion as he lay on the bed.

The first thing he saw was Gu Yuena. Memories flooded back into his brain and he began to show signs of agitation.

Gu Yuena quickly took two steps forward and arrived by his side. She whispered something softly into his ear. Qiangu Zhangting was stunned for a moment before his emotions calmed down.

“Really?”

“Hmm.”

“Nana, I’m sorry. I’m useless. I’ve lost. It’s all my fault!” Qiangu Zhangting closed his eyes in sorrow.

“Don’t think about that too much. Rest and recuperate first. I’ll handle the other issues. I don’t want Grandfather to worry either. It’s fine that the item has been destroyed. It’s fine as long as you’re okay.” Gu Yuena’s gentle voice seemed to have its own peculiar charm. As he listened to her voice, Qiangu Zhangting’s expression gradually turned calmer.

“Nana, you’re awesome.”

“Shh. Don’t speak. Rest first,” said Gu Yuena softly.

Qiangu Dongfeng stood by the door and looked at the two people inside the room. He frowned ever so slightly, but his gaze appeared to be quite relaxed. He was feeling extremely pleased with Gu Yuena’s attitude, but losing the Soul-sucking Medal was a heavy blow to the clan. He did not know how he could justify this to the ancestor of the clan after losing it in a Joust For A Spouse Festival of all things!

...

Clouds and mist. It was all clouds and mist stretching as far as the eye could see all around him. Within the clouds and mist, giant dragons cruised through the sky, projecting stretches of colorful lights. They roared joyously and surrounded him as if they were cheering in excitement.

Meanwhile, Tang Wulin was floating in the cloud. He had no idea how he got there, but everything felt so real.

What was this place?

All of a sudden, a gigantic golden dragon appeared underneath his body. Before he could react, the huge dragon, over a thousand meters in length, had pushed Tang Wulin up, seating him on the top of its head. A sonorous dragon’s roar burst forth from its mouth and guided the surrounding dragons to fly to their sides. Those dragons rushed to the front and called out in joy.

“Thank you for letting us rest in peace. Thank you for planting the seed for the Dragon Clan. Thank you, our clan elder and our Dragon God.” action

A consciousness surged into Tang Wulin’s mind at this moment. Soon after, thousands of emotions surged into his heart. The large amount of information suddenly surging into his mind made him feel like his head was about to burst at once. Fortunately, he had great spiritual power. After taking a moment to adapt, he began forming some thoughts.

This was the Dragon Valley!

He had finally figured out where the giant dragons before his eyes came from.

At his Thought Concretization spiritual cultivation base, he was already incapable of dreaming anymore. In fact, every dream he had would be a projection of reality just like the scene before his eyes now.

The bracelet on his wrist was known as the Dragon God’s Tears by these giant dragons. It was a divine weapon left behind by the Dragon God long ago but not condensed from these members of the Dragon Clan.

Ages past, the Dragon God’s remains had been left behind in the Dragon Valley. The remains contained the Dragon God Spirit and it was this spirit that had guarded the entire Dragon Clan’s graveyard all along and nourished the dragon bones there, hoping that one day in the future, the Dragon Clan could have a resurgence.

However, the Dragon God Spirit had been taken away by someone with the Dragon God aura when Tang Wulin went into the Dragon Valley. Tang Wulin was the only other person with the Dragon God aura at the time.

Without the Dragon God Spirit, the entire Dragon Clan graveyard could have collapsed at any time. It was the Dragon God aura from Tang Wulin’s body that stabilized the entire plane at the time. It was only because he was there that the Dragon Clan’s graveyard plane had not collapsed back then.

He then spent over three years inside the Dragon Clan’s graveyard and buried all the dragon bones there. The ground in the graveyard contained the nourishing energy of the Dragon God Spirit. Every dragon bone that was buried was akin to a seed planted in soil. It gave them a chance to maintain their spirituality.

At the same time, the Dragon God aura from Tang Wulin’s body was growing thicker and thicker after continuously absorbing dragon souls, while the dragon bones in the graveyard stopped absorbing Dragon God Spirit in the air after being buried into the ground. As a result, the entire plane had gradually stabilized over the three years that had gone by. Thus, in the end, the plane was saved.

Even though Tang Wulin had accomplished that unintentionally, his efforts had saved the Dragon Clan’s graveyard. After so many years of incubation, the spirituality of the dragon bones inside the graveyard had gradually come back to full vitality. They relied on the Dragon God’s Tears to finally link up with Tang Wulin.

This was also because Tang Wulin’s spiritual cultivation base had reached the point of Thought Concretization. Without that, he could not possibly have linked up.

The force of the domain earlier had originated from the projection of the Dragon Clan’s graveyard. The giant golden dragon that was carrying Tang Wulin on its head was one of the Dragon God’s nine sons, the Light Dragon King. Indeed, it was the most powerful of the Dragon God’s sons.

The Light Dragon King’s dragon spirit was maintained perfectly. He told Tang Wulin that he could feel that the Dragon God aura from Tang Wulin’s body was growing thicker and thicker. If Tang Wulin could find whoever that took the Dragon God Spirit one day, Tang Wulin must take back the Dragon God Spirit and fuse with that person’s aura. This could possibly resurrect the entire Dragon Clan.

For their part, they were willing to help Tang Wulin at any time during this process through the Dragon God’s Tears. They were awaiting the day that the Dragon Clan could be resurrected.

“So that’s how it is. But, if the Dragon Clan is resurrected, will you remain in that small plane where the Dragon Clan’s graveyard was or will you return to Douluo Continent once again?” asked Tang Wulin.

The Light Dragon King said, “I understand your concern and I can sense your thoughts as well. You’re a human being. Even though I don’t know why there’s Dragon God aura on your body, I can tell you that there’s no need to worry about that. Our Dragon Clan is the main combat force that waged war with the Gods eons ago. The Gods had looked down upon us as divine beasts, which resulted in that battle. Now, the Divine Realm no longer exists, and we have also lost the leadership of our Dragon God. We’re not the divine beasts of the Divine Realm anymore, so we’re only ordinary members of the Dragon Clan. Our presence will not affect mankind even if we are to return to the main plane. Moreover, we don’t like the main plane that has lost its life source.”

Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment. “All of you can sense the depletion of life force on the main plane too?”
