Chapter 355: Chapter 300: Heavenly Dragon Martial Treasure True Explanation (Request for a monthly ticket)
Beneath the Wind Snow Pavilion, Chen Yuan had already left.
Inside the pavilion, only Old Man Dong with his wine-stained nose and the silver-haired girl Cun Xin remained.
Or rather, Dragon Breeding Clan’s Dong Fu and Northern Sea Dragon Girl.
"How was the food?" Old Man Dong reverted to his prior frivolous demeanor, sitting next to the girl while leaning towards her, chuckled and asked.
"Hmm!" The girl’s eyes lifted at the corners as she gazed at the messy plates and cups on the table, nodding her head, her eyes sparkling, "This place is truly as you described, full of exquisite meals and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. If only it could be like this every day."
In the girl’s words, there was a hint of playfulness and a touch of regret.
This statement immediately lit up Old Man Dong’s eyes, his eyeballs rolling around, he swept his sleeve towards the outside of the pavilion, creating a whirlwind of snow enveloping the pavilion tightly. The old man then lowered his voice, "Didn’t I tell you so? Don’t you want to eat your fill at every meal?"
The silver-haired girl nodded vigorously like a pecking chick.
"Then cry a bit."
"Why?" The girl widened her eyes, full of confusion.
"If you cry, the general will pity you," stated Old Man Dong with utmost seriousness.
The girl gave it some serious thought, her beautiful eyes blinking, her eyes quickly glistening with moisture, while Old Man Dong watched eagerly, ready to catch the tears with his hands.
But after a long blink, Cun Xin furrowed her eyebrows,
"I can’t cry! It’s too hard. Let’s just leave, I saw that the general has already left."
"My dear ancestor, a meal or meals every day, think about which is more important?" Old Man Dong cajoled gently.
Girl Cun Xin tried again but to no avail.
Recalling what Chen Yuan had said before he left, Old Man Dong realized the other party wasn’t easy to fool, bit his teeth and said, "Then bite your finger and let a drop of blood fall."
"The general will feel pity when he sees you bleeding!"
Girl Cun Xin eyed the old man suspiciously, "Crazy old man, you’re not tricking me, are you? No one would believe such a tale meant for tricking three-year-olds. It must be you who earlier angered the general by deceiving him and using me as a shield."
Old Man Dong felt a bit guilty and turned his head away, "Believe it or not." freēwēbnovel.com
But then, Cun Xin’s playful eyebrows rose, "I guessed right, but oh well, it’s not easy for you to bring me around to scrounge for meals."
Saying this, she placed her finger, delicate as white jade, by her mouth.
Old Man Dong did not turn around, a sigh flickered in his eyes, the Northern Sea Dragon Girl who had once shocked the Northern Sea two hundred years ago, now heavily injured and amnesic, had turned into the naive playful Cun Xin, needing such schemes just to find a safe place.
While he was deep in thought, suddenly a strong burst of Dragon Energy startled him back to reality, he turned around.
A silver blood pearl, the size of a mung bean, emerged from girl Cun Xin’s finger.
It fell like mercury.
Old Man Dong was quick with his hands, with a sweep of his hand, he made it disappear.
And girl Cun Xin’s bitten little finger, in an instant, flashed with silver light and swiftly healed.
"Is this okay now?"
"It’s okay, it’s okay."
Subsequently, Old Man Dong took out a shiny brown gourd tied around his waist,
With a "pop", he pulled open the gourd’s stopper.
Then, a streak of blue Spirit Light flew out.
The Spirit Light flashed, revealing a bowl-sized black and cyan turtle shell.
The shell bore signs of ancient pictographic script as big as a fingernail, engraved upon it.
An ancient and distant aura emanated from the turtle shell.
The girl, Cun Xin, became curious.
"What is this?"
"Humph, didn’t the old man say he would offer a treasure? Just wait here, and let General Chen’s eyes widen." Old Man Dong stood up, speaking as if performing a dialogue in a play, with an exaggerated tone, then he strode towards the wintry snow outside the pavilion. With a few flashes, he reached the arched gate of this courtyard.
There, Yun Tiansheng was waiting there, his hands clasped in a gesture of politeness,
"Senior Dong, please follow me!"
Old Man Dong looked Yun Tiansheng up and down, smiled, and said, "It seems your general still knows some manners."
Yun Tiansheng’s expression remained unchanged, and he said nothing, leading the way.
After exiting the archway, they walked on a bridge, winding around a few times, arriving in front of an antique five-story pavilion with flying eaves and rising angles.
Yun Tiansheng clasped his hands and bowed slightly, whispering,
"General, Senior Dong has arrived!"
As he spoke, the door creaked open, letting the snowstorm outside blow in.
"Senior, please come in to talk."
Chen Yuan’s calm voice came from inside.
Old Man Dong said nothing and stepped inside, the door closing behind him, with Yun Tiansheng standing guard outside.
Upon entering, Old Man Dong saw rows upon rows of towering bookshelves, laden with various manuscripts—bamboo slips, jade scrolls, and bound books—filling the air with the fragrance of ink and paper.
This was the Book Storage Pavilion of the Ninth Mountain, not too big, not too small, with five floors.
Chen Yuan was in front of a bookshelf on the fifth floor, with a bamboo slip unfolded and floating before him, his pupils flashing golden light as he scanned the content swiftly.
Apparently not finding what he wanted, the bamboo slips flipped over, and several more scrolls flew out from the shelf.
"What is General Chen looking for?"
Old Man Dong’s figure swiftly appeared on the fifth floor.
"Looking for information about the Dragon Breeding Clan and the Northern Sea," I replied, "I just want to understand a bit. Perhaps Jiushan is too small, I couldn’t find anything, I will check again when I reach the summit."
Chen Yuan flicked his finger lightly, returning the scroll to its place, then turned around, his eyes shimmering with golden light.
"The old man is right in front of you, if you want to ask something, you will know in the future." Old Man Dong felt a bit of a headache, the Colonel was not easy to deceive, as if putting medicine in his own eyes, he shook his head and flicked his sleeve, sending out a streak of blue Spirit Light.
"This is the sincerity I have promised!"
Chen Yuan caught the Spirit Light with one hand and looked over it—it was a turtle shell slightly larger than a palm.
Etched with ancient hieroglyphs, it exuded a sense of age and profoundness. The moment it was held, a strange sucking force emanated from it, as if wanting to pull his Primordial Spirit in, making him experience a fleeting moment of darkness.
Chen Yuan’s Dharma Eye was powerful; he stabilized his mind, his expression slightly stern, looking at the red-nosed old man opposite him.
Old Man Dong noticed Chen Yuan facing his family’s True Skill without any effect and was somewhat surprised, but seeing Chen Yuan’s hostile gaze, he began to explain the origin.
"This is the Five Internal Heavenly Dragon True Solution Map. Martial Vault connects the five viscera. Typically, at this stage of cultivation, a Divine Platform is constructed within the Martial Vault to invite the Gods’ descent. But, there is one downside, the Martial Vault Divinities over time may develop identity confusions between the ego, true self, and oneself. Incision of the Three Corpses might pose future risks, this is common for everyone, it’s not a big issue as long as one’s Tao Heart is determined and possesses great courage and wisdom to overcome, though it’s not perfect."
"This True Solution is a secret diagram of the viscera created by our ancestors, necessitating the activation of Luck Spirit Root and Dragon Energy—two rare treasures of heaven and earth for its mysterious uses, you may experience it yourself."
Saying this, the old man let out a tinge of pain,
"This is Dragon Blood!"
A brilliant silver light flew towards Chen Yuan, echoing with a crisp and loud dragon’s roar.
Chen Yuan’s eyes immediately blazed bright as he caught it!
