Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 353 The Strength of the Dragon Clan, the Sacred Tree of Fusang, the First Emperor's Personal Expedition to Beiju, and the Plunder of the Demon Clan

"I never imagined that my husband would also receive such an opportunity. Although he is only a six-clawed golden dragon now, as long as he continues to transform, he will surely be able to transform into a nine-clawed golden dragon, or even a twelve-clawed golden dragon, and then become the ancestral dragon of the entire dragon race, and even be able to command all dragons. After all, golden dragons have always been the royal family of the dragon race, and the former ancestral dragon was a twelve-clawed golden dragon."

Di Xiao naturally understood what Zhao Yinman was saying. From its inception to the present day, the Dragon Clan has branched out into countless lineages. The most core is the Golden Dragon Clan, followed by the Black Dragon Clan, the Crimson Dragon Clan, and the Red Dragon Clan, all evolved from Dragons, or true dragons that shed their scales…

Dragons, categorized by various colors or characteristics, constitute the vast dragon race.

The six-clawed golden dragon that Di Xiao has now transformed into is undoubtedly royalty among the dragon race. It truly has the potential to rule the entire dragon race in the future.

The core reason why Di Xiao could transform into a six-clawed golden dragon was the Dragon Source Fruit he had previously obtained. Secondly, the transformation from a human to a golden dragon was not a racial change, but a transformation technique, but an evolution that transcended the technique of transformation.

It can be said that Di Xiao is both a dragon and a human, but both races exist independently. Or perhaps it is similar to the Wu race, which possesses both a human form and a Dao form.

Transform into a golden dragon and soar through the sky.

Di Xiao was extremely satisfied with his ability to transform into the true form of a golden dragon, even though in the Journey to the West world, the dragon race was portrayed as very weak. Even a mere Sun Wukong could easily bully them, forcing the Dragon King of the East Sea to call Sun Wukong the Great Sage.

It was only after learning about the dragon race that I realized how powerful they were. Especially when chatting with Zhao Yinman about the dragon race, I gained a deeper understanding of them.

Since the Great Calamity of the Dragon and Phoenix, ninety percent of the strongest members of the Dragon Clan have perished. However, due to the collective sacrifice of the Ancestral Dragon and the powerful members of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Clan not only repaid the karmic debt of the primordial world, but also bound the Dragon Clan to the spiritual veins of the primordial land.

The First Dragon led the powerful dragons, sacrificing themselves to the earth, transforming into the earth's spiritual veins to repair and dredge the ley lines, allowing the primordial spiritual energy to circulate and transform. It should be understood that spiritual veins, nurtured within the earth, can absorb the earth's energy and decompose the things that perished in the primordial world, transforming them into spiritual energy that flows into the primordial world.

Therefore, spiritual veins are extremely important to the entire primordial world. Many innate blessed lands are so named because they contain countless spiritual veins.

The dragon race's transformation into spiritual veins is truly a great achievement. Furthermore, this transformation is not temporary, but continuous. If any dragon were to perish, they too would become spiritual veins. Even if the earth's spiritual veins were insufficient, the dragon race would continue to sacrifice themselves to the earth, transforming into spiritual veins, in accordance with the covenant signed between the ancestral dragon and the earth.

The ancient war between the Lich King and the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods severely damaged the primordial land, destroying countless spiritual veins. The Dragon Clan continuously offered sacrifices to gradually restore the earth's spiritual veins, allowing the primordial energy to slowly recover.

Therefore, spiritual veins have gradually come to be called dragon veins.

For this reason, which powerful being in the primordial world dares to kill dragons at will? Killing too many would be a drain on the primordial world.

Because of the dragon race's importance to the primordial world, the dragon race did not face the common problem of difficulty in reproduction. Almost anyone who mated with a dragon could produce offspring. Therefore, the dragon race became the second most prolific race in the primordial world, after humans.

The dragon race thrived through reproduction, their numbers constantly increasing. Through their transformative powers, they evolved time and again towards becoming true dragons. The ancestral dragon even created the Dragon Gate, accelerating the transformation of beings possessing dragon blood into true dragons.

Over countless ages, countless dragons have roamed the primordial world. And among these many dragons, countless powerful beings have emerged, given their innate talents. After all, dragons are generally quite gifted; with a little growth, they can reach the Golden Immortal realm.

Therefore, in the primordial world, the dragon race was still an extremely large and powerful race. They were definitely not as weak as they appeared on the surface.

If the Dragon Clan is truly pushed to the brink, not to mention whether the primordial world would be willing, just consider how many powerful figures the Dragon Clan would produce. Moreover, according to Zhao Yinman, it seems that the Ancestral Dragon's younger brother, Zhulong, is still alive.

That was the younger brother of the First Emperor. Having lived for so long, who could know how terrifying his strength was?

Such a vast race now presents an opportunity to subdue it. This alone is enough to excite Di Xiao. Moreover, by unleashing the true form of the Dragon Clan, Di Xiao has also gained the talents and supernatural abilities of the Dragon Clan. In this state, his strength far surpasses his original power.

All of this must have delighted Di Xiao.

In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.

Ever since Di Xiao transformed into the Golden Dragon, he has been walking with Zhao Yinman inside the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum.

Relying on Zhao Yinman's knowledge of Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum and Di Xiao's own strength, they defeated countless terracotta warriors.

Through countless battles with the Terracotta Army, Di Xiao grew stronger with each fight. Each victory against the Terracotta Army brought him the treasures within.

At this moment, Di Xiao dispelled his fighting spirit, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the scattered fragments of terracotta warriors before him with a slightly disheveled expression: "Cough cough... The closer one gets to the core of Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum, the stronger the terracotta warriors guarding it become. The strongest terracotta warriors in the outer cities are only at the ordinary Taiyi realm. But now, the terracotta warriors in the central area are already close to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm."

"Fortunately, these terracotta warriors are not real cultivators, so they cannot unleash their full potential. Moreover, they are countered by me, otherwise I might have truly lost this battle."

Di Xiao coughed, spitting out blood, which made Zhao Yinman feel sorry for him. She helped Di Xiao up and said, "Although the clan's records describe the situation of these terracotta warriors, we didn't expect them to be so troublesome. It seems that we should train more in the outer areas and grow for a while before venturing into the central areas."

"The terracotta warriors in the outer cities no longer pose much of a threat to me. Smashing weaklings doesn't help my growth in the Dao of Battle." Di Xiao shook his head. His cultivation of the Dao of Battle made him stronger with each battle. This also meant Di Xiao was eager to take on challenges, which accelerated his growth. Fighting a group of weaklings really didn't offer much improvement.

Knowing his own situation, Di Xiao stopped Zhao Yinman, saying, "Alright, enough nonsense. We've worked hard for years, put in countless efforts, and even suffered heavy losses to deal with these terracotta warriors. Now it's time to reap the rewards. Let's see what treasure these terracotta warriors are guarding."

Over the years, Di Xiao has been training in the outer regions, slaughtering terracotta warriors in nine cities and acquiring nine treasures, none of which were simple. Each one has significantly improved Di Xiao's abilities.

Now that we've reached the middle range, the treasures there must be even more precious.

With a wave of his hand, he pushed open the palace guarded by the terracotta warriors.

In an instant, a wave of heat swept over him, making Di Xiao feel scorching hot.

Amidst that scorching heat, within the treasure hall, stood a golden tree. Rooted in the rolling flames, the tree absorbed the heat, spreading its golden flames.
