Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 269 In Dragon Valley, the Dragons Never Die

"We've arrived. This is the place where dragons are buried, and that's probably where the Dragon God lives."

Xu Tianxi gazed into the distance, his clear vision revealing over a thousand majestic dragon skeletons, though the deepest, seven-colored halo remained indistinct.

His blood was flowing much faster, boiling incessantly, his throat was dry, and even holding the Silver Dragon Spear couldn't calm it down. Only the aura of the Dragon God could make his Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon bloodline like this.

Beside him, Gu Zhaoqiu was overwhelmed by grief and indignation at the fall of the dragons, his face pale, and he inexplicably felt an urge to let out a long sigh.

She wiped her cheek and murmured softly, "This feeling is really wrong, I feel like crying..."

"Do whatever you want, after all, there's not much we can do."

Xu Tianxi patted Gu Zhaoqiu on the shoulder and said calmly, "I don't know much about the past of the Dragon Clan, but I understand the feeling of sympathy for one's own kind. Let's go down and explore for a while, and then prepare for the burial."

The facts about the dragon race are too chaotic. He doesn't know the specifics. He just needs to go down, find the dragon god, bury the dragon bones, and leave. If he's lucky, he can find a suitable true dragon soul bone.

Gu Zhaoqiu nodded vigorously, grunted, and then released the bundle, letting out a long roar. The golden dragon's light and shadow flickered around her, and the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King roared in all directions.

Xu Tianxi took out a telescope made using the principle of X-ray vision and observed for a while, lost in thought.

Ten thousand years later, Tang Wulin gained much favor here by virtue of his Golden Dragon King bloodline, and his subsequent burial of the dragon earned the gratitude of the dragons.

One of them possesses the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, and the other possesses the bloodline of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, plus a Silver Dragon Spear, so they should not be considered outsiders to the dragon race.

only……

"How come after looking around, there are no remains of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, only true dragon bones? Don't sub-dragons have dragon rights? There aren't even any dragon bones from the ancestral lineage of sub-dragons?"

Xu Tianxi was somewhat helpless. Soul beasts with the attribute of destruction were extremely rare, and soul bones were even harder to find.

He had hoped to find something in Dragon Valley, but he didn't even see the remains of a Purple Radiance Annihilation Dragon, let alone its soul bone.

It's reasonable to suspect that the old Dragon God was petty and only took the real dragon with him when he fled.

"Besides the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, the only ones suitable for me are the Water Dragon King lineage and the Mountain Dragon King lineage. The Earth Dragon King is somewhat related, but not much, and the earth attribute is almost non-existent for me..."

Xu Tianxi knew that his cultivation was special. Xuanwu was originally a divine beast with water as its main element and earth as its secondary element, but it had mutated in his case, and the earth element was barely worth anything.

Among the nine dragon clans, the Water Dragon King needs no introduction, while the Mountain Dragon King lineage possesses the strongest defensive talent, with its bloodline subtly ranking first. Its talent for transforming into mountains and continents is quite compatible with the Black Tortoise.

Turning his gaze to the silent Snow Emperor not far away, Xu Tianxi asked, "Snow Emperor, what do you think of this place?"

The Snow Emperor's expression was solemn, her sleeves fluttering as she said in a low voice, "I feel suppression, a very strong suppression. I am probably not welcome here; only when I get closer to you will that suppression disappear."

She turned around, focused her gaze, looked directly into Xu Tianxi's eyes, and said, "I don't blame you for bringing me here, but the environment here is more unusual than I imagined. If something goes wrong, we will all die."

"If we don't provoke the undead, don't hurt the feelings of the dragons, and don't covet the true dragon soul bone, there won't be so many unexpected events."

Xu Tianxi waved his hand and smiled slightly: "You've absorbed quite a bit of Dragon Cloud and Dragon Soul in the past two months. Your body has recovered almost completely, right?"

Xue Di lowered her eyes and nodded slightly, her voice barely audible: "That's about it. At that time... Thank you for coming to rescue me."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianxi's expression turned strange.

Seeing that Xu Tianxi didn't answer, Xue Di looked at him in surprise and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why do you have that expression?"

Xu Tianxi's expression turned serious, and he said slowly, "Two months ago, you looked like you were ready to fight to the death. When I stopped you from making a move, you looked like you wanted to chop me and those people up with you."

A blush crept across the Snow Emperor's frost-covered face. She turned her head to gaze at the night sky, her fingers fidgeting with her sleeve, and said:
"At that time, I unfortunately fell into the hands of villains and was determined to fight to the death. I thought that once I got out, I would perish together with those people. Who would have thought that you would come so quickly? I was furious at the time, and my attitude was not very good."

"Don't thank me, thank Hyotei. If she hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known that something happened again so soon after you left."

"I was prepared for your cold and hard temper. I'm not one to hold grudges. Just make sure you teach me your combat skills diligently from now on."

Xu Tianxi sighed and said, "But sometimes I wonder if your luck is too bad. Last time it was the level nine soul tool, the Conferred God Platform, and this time it was the divine artifact, the Vajra Bracelet. Both times you were hit when you were at your weakest. I think you should stop acting alone in the future."

He joked, "As the saying goes, things don't happen more than three times. If you're not careful, you might encounter an accident when you regain your Ice God status and return to the God Realm. You might even run into a super artifact, and then I'll have to come and save you." Yes, the Trident of the Sea God is a super artifact. The Snow Empress's recklessness might lead to unpredictable troubles.

The Snow Emperor blushed and quickly covered his face with his sleeve, arguing, "Don't talk nonsense and curse me. I will listen to you from now on, keep a low profile, and be careful in everything I do."

Having been in trouble twice and being saved by Xu Tianxi both times, Xue Di felt ashamed.

The dignified ruler of the far north, a ferocious beast overlord for seven hundred thousand years, has lost all face and can no longer hold his head up in front of a human junior.

From this moment on, Xue Di must learn to develop stealthily!

If I don't become a Title Douluo, I won't run around anymore.

However, the realm of gods...

Snow Empress's thoughts wandered, and she asked Xu Tianxi, "Both the Ice God and the Water God are first-level gods. How did your talk with that Water God go? I heard that first-level gods are second only to the five great god kings in the god realm, and can be considered top-tier."

Xu Tianxi's eyes flickered, and he said with a faint smile, "The talks went quite well. There's no need to refuse a divine position that's been offered to us."

Xue Di stared at Xu Tianxi and pressed, "I see a strong desire in your eyes. Are you content with just obtaining the position of Water God?"

Xu Tianxi raised an eyebrow. "You have a good eye for people. Of course I'm not willing to accept this. Twin martial souls should have at least two godhoods."

"Moreover, I know that this divine position has great limitations on the future; being a first-level god is certainly not bad, but pursuing a higher position allows you to see a more beautiful view. It's a pity that I heard that the God King of Destruction in the God Realm is a man of ambition and does not want to pass on his position to the mortal realm, otherwise I am confident that I could give it a try."

As he spoke, Xu Tianxi sighed softly.

Others might not be able to accept the incompatibility of attributes in the inheritance of the God of Destruction, but he has the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon. At least on the Douluo Continent, no one is more suitable than him. Even Xu Tianran, that disabled person, cannot be called a match for him.

The fact that the God of Destruction did not pass on his legacy means that he is different from the old Asura who always wants to run away; he really doesn't want to leave.

If he doesn't give it to me, I'll just have to make do with it. After all, I have a long lifespan and I don't want to rush to the God Realm to be swept away by the spacetime turbulence.

If we convert the timeline, Huo was hung up for less than twenty years in the original novel. Not only was he bound by the chastity lock and couldn't touch the stitched monster, but he also had to run around and risk his life for the sake of his father-in-law, the God King. Xu Tianxi wasn't a fool who was eager to suffer. Wouldn't it be better for him to enjoy a more carefree life in the mortal realm?

The Water God didn't say that accepting the divine position meant he had to immediately ascend to the divine realm to clock in for work. He could use the excuse of nurturing Ye Guyi to stay in the lower realm a little longer.

There's also Tang Shenwang's Sea God position. I wonder if it could be sublimated if it were refined into the Water God position?
The Snow Emperor's eyes lit up, revealing an expression of "I knew it," and he said, "You have saved me once again. I am not one to be ungrateful. Bing'er is Bing'er, and you are you. I will repay this favor to you even at the cost of my life in the future."

"You're too kind, Snow Empress." Xu Tianxi bowed slightly, then her gaze fell on Gu Zhaoqiu beside her. Her emotions seemed to be released with the dragon's roar, and there were still many waves in her eyes.

"Go down?"

"Yes, go down and see the power left behind by the Dragon God."

Gu Zhaoqiu responded, then leaped high into the air with a powerful push of his legs.

Xu Tianxi and Xue Di followed. Xue Di concealed her aura and stayed close to Xu Tianxi and the Silver Dragon Spear to avoid the pressure from the dragons.

Deep in the valley, bones piled up like mountains, ranging from the bones of ordinary true dragons hundreds of meters high to the bones of divine dragons hundreds or even thousands of meters high. The three of them moved around, witnessing the glorious strength of the dragon race in the past.

At the end of the dragons, the dragon skeleton of the Mountain Dragon King, which was a thousand meters tall, came into view in Gu Zhaoqiu's dream. It was as majestic as a mountain, reaching deep into the dome, with its limbs like pillars of heaven. Its whole body shone with dazzling light, as if it still had vitality.

Gu Zhaoqiu stopped, looking at the Mountain Dragon King's skeleton with a mixture of surprise and doubt. He extended a hand covered in golden dragon scales and asked softly, "Senior Mountain Dragon King, are you... still alive?"

"Ho~ho~ho~"

The mournful cries of the dragons suddenly echoed from Dragon Valley, rolling and reverberating across the sky.

After a moment, the echo dissipated, and clusters of multicolored halos surged from the dragon corpses, surrounding the three people.

Xu Tianxi looked around, his eyelids twitching incessantly.

"No way, it's been 10,000 years, and the changes are this big?"
