Peerless Tang Sect: Hurricane Infinite Wind

Chapter 463 Dragon Valley Secrets
Seeing the joyful expressions on the faces of the Soul Masters, Wu Xuan gently pressed his palm down: "Now that everyone's cultivation problems have been solved, could you please answer a few of my questions?"

The group of titled Douluo, led by Hua An, were stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what was happening.

"Your Majesty is too kind; it is our honor."

"Your Majesty, please ask. We will answer to the best of our knowledge."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, please ask!"

"."

The six city lords all agreed, wanting to show off in front of Wu Xuan.

Wu Xuan nodded slightly, then slowly stood up, looked around, and in the dim light of the campfire, a pale golden bone radiating strong soul power appeared in his hand. It was a complete right arm soul bone, aged a full twenty thousand years.

"This is... a soul bone?" Exclamations of surprise rang out one after another, and the six city lords' eyes burned with excitement.

Wu Xuan coughed twice and slowly said, "This is a right arm soul bone of a Golden Horned Dragon that is about 20,000 years old. Next, whoever provides more useful information to me will get this soul bone."

"Hiss~! Hiss~!" Gasps of cold air rang out one after another. What is a soul bone? Among the soul masters of the Fallen Dragon Continent, it is absolutely priceless. To put it this way, even the six city lords could not collect six soul bones, which shows how precious soul bones are on the Fallen Dragon Continent.

The formation of this spectacle ultimately stems from the fact that the soul beasts on the Fallen Dragon Continent mostly live in groups, and that few of the city lords throughout history have met a good end, often dying at the hands of soul beasts. Therefore, soul bones are even more precious to them.

Seeing the eager gazes of the crowd, Wu Xuan slowly asked his first question: "It is said that more than one true dragon has fallen on the Fallen Dragon Continent. Because of the nourishment of the true dragon's blood, all the soul beasts on the continent carry the bloodline of the dragon race to varying degrees. What I want to know is, how much do you know about the legend of the fall of the true dragon?"

The city lords were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Wu Xuan to ask such a question.

Wang Hong, the city lord of Dragon Shadow City, was the first to recover his senses. He stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty Ling Tian, ​​our clan's log does record some legends of true dragons, but these legends are already rumors from thousands of years ago."

Upon hearing this, the other five people curled their lips in disapproval. This old man's stuff is from thousands of years ago, and he has the nerve to talk about it? The next moment, the city lords' expressions changed as if they had realized something. A diary from thousands of years ago? Could it be a rumor from their ancestor? They dare to boast about such false information to His Majesty Ling Tian?
Just as the city lords were about to stop them, Wu Xuan, who was in the main seat, spoke up.

"Any news is fine, just tell me," Wu Xuan waved his hand. What they didn't know was that the older the record, the more trustworthy it was to him.

Wang Hong's expression brightened as he said, "Your Majesty Ling Tian, ​​the legend of the True Dragon recorded in our clan's log dates back to our first patriarch. According to the records, our first patriarch's talent as a Soul Master was not good; his innate Soul Power was only level two, and his Martial Soul was just an ordinary black shadow. During a Soul Hunt, due to a riot by Soul Beasts, our ancestor unfortunately fell into an abyss."

"Because of the characteristics of his martial soul, coupled with the enhancement of his first soul skill, the first ancestor was fortunate enough to survive. In order to survive, the first ancestor began to explore the abyss. It was in that abyss that the first ancestor discovered a skeleton that was a thousand meters tall. Unlike the barren land outside the abyss, this skeleton was full of vitality. Seeing that he could not find an exit, the first ancestor settled down there."

"Perhaps it was due to the nourishment from the energy emanating from the dragon bones that, in just about six months, the shadowy martial spirit of our ancestor underwent a mutation. The shadow began to take shape, becoming a shadow resembling a giant dragon. The martial spirit completely transformed into a dragon shadow, and our ancestor gained the ability to fly, thus leaving that abyss."

"The next generation of ancestors broke through to the Soul King realm in just three years, becoming the top expert in the village. However, when the next generation of ancestors led people to that abyss again, the dragon's skeleton had already vanished into thin air."

At this point, Hua An, as the host, could no longer contain himself. Hua An slammed his hand on the table and glared at Wang Hong: "Come on, old Wang, isn't this log you're talking about a widely accepted rumor and fake news? The logs of our major families are almost identical to yours! You're trying to fool His Majesty Ling Tian with this kind of rumor?"

“Exactly! The history of our ancestors’ rise to power recorded in our family logs is basically the same. Isn’t this just fabricated fake news?” Lord Longshi City also stepped forward to accuse.

"Their rise to power is all the same?" Wu Xuan frowned, a thoughtful expression on his face. Given the structure of the Fallen Dragon Continent a thousand years ago, the major families should have had very little interaction!
"It's alright, I'll give one point for this information. You can tell me any information you have, and I'll appraise it myself," Wu Xuan said calmly, stopping the dispute that was about to break out between the major city lords.

The major city lords were dumbfounded, never expecting that such news could be taken seriously.

As a result, the major city lords then produced information from their families dating back a thousand years.

All these reports were related to dragon skeletons. The dragon skeletons encountered by the ancestor of Dragon Bear City were found in a canyon filled with earth element. The dragon skeletons encountered by the ancestor of Dragon Lion City were found in a seabed filled with light element. The ancestor of Dragon Wolf City saw a dragon skeleton in a spatial rift. The legend of the ancestor of Wind Dragon City is even more ancient; their ancestor discovered a dragon skeleton split in two in Hurricane Canyon, which was later occupied by the Gale Qilin.

These fragmented and complex pieces of information slowly pieced together in Wu Xuan's mind. Wu Xuan had confirmed that the rise of these city lords' ancestors was inseparable from the discovery of the dragon skeletons. These dead dragons could be basically identified as five of the nine Dragon Kings below the Dragon God.

Finally, the five city lords finished speaking, leaving only the Heavenly Fox City Lord. All eyes were on this youngest of the six city lords.

"Your Majesty Ling Tian, ​​the logs of my Tianhu City may differ slightly from those of the other city lords," the middle-aged man said, bowing to Wu Xuan.

"Oh! What's different?" Wu Xuan's interest was instantly piqued.

The Lord of Tianhu City took a deep breath and slowly said, "An ancestor of my Su family was once caught in a spatial rift and entered a small world different from the mainland. It is said that the ancestor was only at the Soul Sect level at that time, but he still returned safely from that small world."

"Another small world?" Wu Xuan sat up straight, as if he had heard some incredible news.

"Indeed, according to the log, that small world contained countless dragon skeletons, and the clouds there were all sorts of colors—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple—some even resembling dragons. Our ancestor merely dispersed these converging colorful dragon clouds from the outside, and his martial spirit evolved. Then, one day, he was directly expelled from the small world." The Heavenly Fox City Lord shook his head slightly as he said this, clearly not entirely convinced by the log's account.

"What happened next? Did your family continue to enter this small world? Also, is there any record of the location of that spatial rift in your family logbook?" Wu Xuan pressed.

"No, like the other predecessors, none of my Su family's ancestors were able to enter this small world. As for its location, it should be to the east of our Heavenly Fox City, but I don't know the exact location." The Heavenly Fox City Lord shook his head, clearly not taking this rumor from thousands of years ago seriously.

Wu Xuan smiled and looked at the City Lord of Tianhu City. "Very good, I'll give you two points for this message. This soul bone is yours." With that, Wu Xuan tossed the soul bone in his hand to the City Lord of Tianhu City.

The whole audience was dumbfounded.

Wu Xuan lowered his eyes slightly. Based on his memories from his previous life and the information he received from the city lords, Wu Xuan was certain that Dragon Valley was real. Moreover, this small world had been constantly changing its location over the past ten thousand years to collect the remains of the Dragon Kings. It could be said that, apart from the Water and Fire Dragon Kings who were not on the Fallen Dragon Continent, the remains of the other six Dragon Kings, except for the Wind Dragon King, had all been absorbed by Dragon Valley.
