In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 349 The History of the Dragon Clan

This is indeed a sense of superiority that only people from the Human Federation can understand.

Over the past two thousand years, the Federation of Humanity has undergone tremendous changes, growing almost every year, and now it is on the verge of entering a completely new stage of technological revolution.

In contrast, consider the other world.

The entire civilization may have existed for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even nearly a million years.

But until now, it's actually "archaeology".

Forget about restoring to its peak or reaching a higher level; the entire world has lost its future and is heading towards irreversible destruction.

For those who know the truth, the choice is self-evident.

It was precisely because of this that Shen Xing, Ji Long, and the others never worried that any of the people they brought would defect to the other world and betray the Federation.

A complete system is one aspect, but on the other hand, people in the Federation have a sense of superiority when they look at the world.

Shen Xing changed the subject, looked at Ji Long, and laughed, "You can't even extract the Heavenly Grade Dragon Martial Artifact anymore?"

"Not exactly." Ji Long shook his head. "The Taiyan Sect, and those other powerful holy lands, should still have some hidden martial arts intent inheritances, but given the current situation, they are not easy to obtain. Even if you do obtain them, they won't be able to bring about a further qualitative change to your Myriad Dragons Technique."

"That's true." Shen Xing's expression also fell silent for a moment, seemingly somewhat helpless. "I originally thought that there was no limit to the upgrade of the Myriad Dragons Technique."

Yes, he felt he had reached the "limit" of the Myriad Dragons Method.

Although the last four or five Heavenly Grade Dragon-type Martial Arts Intents have been successfully integrated into the Myriad Dragons Technique, their improvement on its quality is almost negligible.

Let alone reaching the top level of the Heavenly Grade, even if one becomes slightly stronger within the current upper-grade Heavenly Grade, it is impossible.

Clearly, it has reached a certain limit.

This was something Shen Xing hadn't considered.

"Is it possible that this is not the limit of the Myriad Dragons Technique, but a sign of a new realm?" Ji Long suddenly said.

"Signs of a higher realm?" Shen Xing was taken aback.

"Some martial arts realms simply don't have lower-level versions," the discoverer of the Myriad Dragons Technique laughed. "Realm itself represents quality. The sixth realm, Heavenly Grade, is difficult to compare with the seventh realm, Earthly Grade, in terms of strength. Each realm represents a completely new level. You feel that the Myriad Dragons Technique has reached its limit, but in my opinion, it's actually because your realm can no longer keep up with the quality of the Myriad Dragons Technique. It requires you to forge your own path and determine the changes in the next realm."

"..." Shen Xing pondered.

He knew that these words were actually just Ji Long's guess.

However, as the discoverer of the Myriad Dragons Technique and a quasi-Great Sage, his knowledge and understanding of martial arts are certainly superior to mine.

therefore.

Perhaps it is true, as Ji Long said, that once he enters the seventh realm, the restrictions of the Myriad Dragons Technique will be lifted.

Shen Xing thought about it again and suddenly smiled.

"No matter what, the next step is the same—find your own path."

"There's no better place than the secret realm." Ji Long laughed, his face filled with obvious anticipation. "Many people say that my pursuit of true dragons is out of love, a crazy love, and that's not entirely wrong. When I first sensed the aura of dragons from those dragon-type monsters, I was completely overwhelmed by an unprecedented shock. It's hard to imagine that there could be such a power that seems born to rule everything!"

Shen Xing knew that Ji Long's fanaticism for the True Dragon was, in essence, still a fanaticism for martial arts.

In his view, the power of dragon-based martial arts was unbelievably strong.

For a long time, he chose the dragon path as his path.

Even though they never found the real dragon, they still forged their own path.

Now, the true dragon has become a dream, an obsession, and this secret realm seems to be the closest he has ever come to that dream.

"Let's go." Shen Xing also looked forward to it.

He took Ji Long with him and in an instant, they arrived directly in the secret realm.

It was inside the barrier that Wenren Caifeng had sealed off.

Before her "ascension," Wenren Caifeng sealed off everything completely, leaving no way out.

Only inside, at the entrance to the spatial rift in the secret realm, was a relatively safe space remaining.

It was left for Shen Xing.

In the entire world, perhaps only Shen Xing could use his flying shuttle to silently cross the barrier and arrive here.

This is his private passage!

"Your ability is truly impressive." This wasn't the first time Ji Long had been teleported, but he was always amazed by it.

He is now a quasi-Great Sage, but he still cannot fathom Shen Xing's power.

Some even doubted whether this was a realm that never existed even in legends and myths.

However, now is not the time to lament about this.

Shen Xing exchanged a glance with him and went inside first.

With the existence of the flying shuttle, even though his strength is only at the sixth realm, it is already difficult for any force to threaten his life. At worst, he can just run away.

Upon entering, Shen Xing could clearly sense that some kind of force was scrutinizing him.

It was a resonance of bloodlines.

A dragon-like vibration.

Shen Xing involuntarily began to circulate the Myriad Dragons Technique, and scales began to appear on his body. His eyes turned golden-red, and a powerful and pure dragon's might surged out from his body.

After a long while, a voice drifted from the void.

"I never expected that a dragon emperor seed like you would still remain in the Great Void Land."

"Senior, are you the spirit of the secret realm?" Shen Xing squinted, his tone polite.

He had already heard from Ji Long that the power within this secret realm was extremely strong, approaching the level of the eighth realm.

That is, the quasi-Great Sage.

Even for him, forcibly breaking in wouldn't be so easy.

This secret realm is related to dragons, which is why he, with his purer and more powerful dragon bloodline, came to try it out.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

At least, when Ji Long came over before, no one spoke to him.

But when faced with Shen Xing's question, the voice became increasingly aged and weary.

"The spirit of the secret realm? I suppose so."

"..." Shen Xing was a little unsure what the other party meant. After waiting for a while, he simply said directly, "We came for the Dragon Lineage inheritance. In the outside world these days, the Dragon Lineage inheritance is not easy to find."

"."

The voice seemed to have vanished completely, and there was still no reply.

Shen Xing frowned, exchanged a glance with Ji Long, and suddenly took a step forward.

He had actually already found the entrance.

Although the spatial rift was extremely narrow, it posed no problem for him, who possessed powerful spatial abilities.

This action caused the voice to exclaim in surprise.

"You actually possess such powerful spatial abilities? You're only at the sixth realm, aren't you?"

"Wait, don't be so rough."

"I will release it; this space is already extremely fragile."

"Ugh."

"."

Accompanied by the familiar ripples of spatial teleportation, Shen Xing and Ji Long arrived directly at a magnificent palace.

As soon as you enter, you can feel the rich aura of a true dragon within.

Extremely concentrated.

Moreover, the quality is extremely high!

Each bite felt like digesting a top-grade seventh-rank dragon-type elixir.

Shen Xingdu couldn't help but show a look of joy.

With such vital energy, even just staying here to cultivate would be of great benefit to him.

It's important to know that dragon-type energy isn't just for cultivation; it also greatly benefits one's understanding of dragon-type martial arts principles.

"Sigh." The voice sighed again, and a phantom appeared in front of Shen Xing.

He was a man with a weathered face, wearing a luxurious robe, and even had two dragon horns protruding from his forehead.

Without a doubt, this is already a spirit of the secret realm.

"He's even stronger than the sect master of the Taiyan Sect," Ji Long said from the side, looking the other up and down without any restraint. "Moreover, he's highly bound to this secret realm, which means he can wield more than ten eighth-grade divine weapons. If we were to fight him openly, I wouldn't be afraid, but the aftershocks might destroy this world."

"Stop, junior." The voice was full of helplessness. "I'm just an old man left here to die. I have no will to live. My greatest wish is to perish with this world. Why bother? Take whatever you want, whatever you fancy."

Shen Xing did indeed sense a strong will to die emanating from this person.

Those are the unique characteristics possessed by powerful beings who are tired of living.

Among the seven realm saints, they are actually quite common.

Some ancient seventh-realm saints lived for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years. Martial arts had lost all possibilities, and their lifespans slowly became boundless. They cared about one person and gradually lost all desire for life.

Either step into the spatial turbulence and disappear into the boundless void.

Alternatively, one could choose any place and willingly enter into eternal slumber.

This one looks like the latter.

However, Shen Xing took a look around at the palace.

In terms of luxury, it can be said to exceed the limits of imagination. This does not refer to the decoration, but to the materials used.

It is important to understand that even the most powerful inscriptions need a carrier to exist for a long time. This often requires rare and powerful extraordinary materials. The more advanced the material, the longer it takes for it to evolve.

Top-quality materials are extremely difficult to find, even for a sage.

Especially materials that can be considered "eighth grade".

This is the foundation for forging an eighth-grade divine weapon. All that could be plundered in the entire world has long been taken away by those ascended Great Saints. Even in the Refining Heaven Workshop, there are not many left; they are all top-tier treasures.

But here

All of them!

Among them are many dragons!

"Divine Wood Crystal, Dragon Emperor Bone, Blazing Sun Divine Stone, and that's the Purgatory Horn?" Shen Xing glanced at a few things he recognized and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The key point is that these incredibly precious, top-tier extraordinary materials are not used in the design of the secret realm at all; they are simply piled up here.

"These were originally part of my Dragon Clan's treasure trove." The spirit of the secret realm did not hide anything. "Ten thousand years ago, my Dragon Clan clashed with other warriors and a great war broke out. In the end, we were defeated and fled in haste. We did not take many things with us. I, this old body, did not want to leave these things to those people, so I left them all here."

"So, that's why you don't want us to come in?" Shen Xing raised an eyebrow.

"That's right." The spirit of the secret realm said bluntly, "Although you are dragons, you are not born dragons, but rather martial artists. Although I don't know why you can purify your bloodline to this extent, given the situation in the outside world, you can only be disciples of those martial artists—what difference is there between handing it over to you and handing it over to those dragon enemies?"

Shen Xing could tell that this person might really want to die, but was still extremely proud of his identity as a dragon.

This can actually be seen from the dragon horns on his forehead.

Although it is true that dragon-type martial artists can transform into dragons and reveal their horns like this after cultivating to a certain level, very few people would actually do it.

In terms of identity and physical appearance, both Shen Xing and Ji Long identify more with their human identity.

Although the dragon's body is powerful, it is still just a martial arts technique.

But the person in front of us is clearly not like that.

"What exactly happened ten thousand years ago?" Shen Xing didn't want to argue, so he asked instead, "You escaped, but no true dragon has been seen in the entire world."

Shen Xing was indeed very curious about the dragon race.

Not only him, but every holy site outside is the same.

After all, this race is indeed powerful and wealthy.

It's almost unbelievable that he could fight against all the other martial artists all by himself.

Ten thousand years ago, there were many dragon-type martial artists like those from the Xuanlong Palace who actively sought to align themselves with the dragon race. Dragon-type martial artists were even extremely popular at one time, naturally surpassing other martial artists.

"Hehe." The spirit of the secret realm suddenly chuckled twice, looked at the people in front of him with pity, and said with a leisurely sigh, "Do you know that this land, the entire world, is about to be destroyed?"

He could already imagine how shocked the two people in front of him would be after this news was told.

A vast and boundless world, seemingly endless, is about to be completely destroyed!

However, after saying this, both Shen Xing and Ji Long remained calm.

"Of course we'll go straight for it," Shen Xing said directly. "It's just spatial turbulence, it's still early. We can hold out for tens of thousands of years."

"Yes, that's it." The spirit of the secret realm suddenly realized, "With your talent and strength, you must have already been accepted by those Great Saints, right? Heh, you can naturally hide in your small world and continue to eke out a living, and you really don't care about what happens to the world, do you?"

"Do you really care?" Shen Xing retorted sharply.

"Of course." The spirit of the secret realm sneered, declaring proudly, "We dragons oppose the construction of smaller worlds; that will only hasten the destruction of this world. We want to save it! We want to save this world!"
