Chapter 811 Primordial Dragon Bone

"Primordial Dragon Bone? What is that?"

Ye Yuan knew something about the demon race, but his understanding was clearly not as thorough as that of the human race.

Especially for a proud race like the dragon clan, they harbored many secrets unknown to others.

Long Teng did not speak, only said calmly: "Follow me."

The two men and one jiao submerged to the bottom of the pool. On a stone platform at the bottom lay a crystalline bone, which should be the Primordial Dragon Bone Long Teng had mentioned.

Seeing this Primordial Dragon Bone, Ye Yuan was slightly startled.

The dragon clan pressure emanating from the bone was extremely powerful, several times stronger than his own!

And the pool water around the bone appeared pitch black.

"The pool's effect of cleansing the marrow and purifying the veins is all due to this Primordial Dragon Bone! The bone merely releases a trace of energy, turning the entire pool into a treasure. This little snake, by cultivating near it, was able to advance repeatedly and is about to transform from jiao to dragon," said Long Teng.

Ye Yuan suddenly realized that the source of this Primordial Lixi Pool was actually a dragon bone!

The pool water was probably nearly ten thousand zhang deep. A small dragon bone could transform the entire pool into a heavenly treasure—the energy contained in the bone itself was evident!

No wonder Long Teng said he had found a treasure; he had known all along.

"Senior, given your current state, it's probably difficult for you to deal with Heifeng, right? Why was he so afraid when he saw you?" Ye Yuan suddenly asked.

Long Teng seemed to have anticipated this question and smiled: "The hierarchy among the demon race is far stricter than you imagine; strength does not represent everything. This little snake wants to deal with me—even a hundred times stronger would not be enough."

Ye Yuan's eyes widened: "A hundred times?"

Heifeng's strength was already at the Great Perfection of the Formless Realm; a hundred times stronger would be unimaginable!

"Although this little snake has evolved successfully and its true dragon bloodline has thickened, even if it truly transforms from jiao to dragon, it would only be the lowest level of dragon. The true dragon race also has a strict hierarchy. Unless it has an extraordinary opportunity to break through to the Divine Realm, it will forever have to obey the commands of higher-level dragons," said Long Teng.

The demon race always prioritized bloodline; this was not hard to understand.

But Ye Yuan had not expected that even among true dragons, the gap in hierarchy could be so vast.

Ye Yuan suddenly remembered something and asked: "Heifeng seemed to call you... 'Throne' earlier?"

Long Teng nodded: "In the dragon clan, those with the purest bloodline are called the royal clan. However, in any given era, there are very, very few dragons with royal bloodline. It can be said that the royal clan are the true descendants of true dragons! In the Age of Divine Dao, as long as a royal clan member did not fall, they would eventually reach the Divine Realm!"

Ye Yuan gasped, not expecting that the dragon clan had such powerful beings.

A guaranteed entry into the Divine Realm—what great favor from the heavens!

"So, Senior, you are of the royal clan?"

Long Teng said proudly: "I was known as the number one genius of the dragon clan in my time; naturally, I am of the royal clan!"

"Hmm... then the drop of essence blood you gave me?"

"That was also royal clan essence blood! However, the foundation of your physical body is too poor; that single drop of essence blood is not enough to evolve you into the royal clan. The true dragon bloodline of the royal clan is far purer than you imagine!" said Long Teng.

Ye Yuan's face showed disappointment. He was quite yearning for a bloodline that could guarantee entry into the Divine Realm.

Even if he could no longer achieve the Divine Realm, the power of such a bloodline was undeniable.

What Ye Yuan needed now was strength!

Seeing the disappointment on Ye Yuan's face, Long Teng smiled: "You need not be disappointed. If that drop of essence blood won't work, it doesn't mean this dragon bone won't."

Ye Yuan's eyes lit up: "Senior, what is the origin of this dragon bone?"

"If I am not mistaken, this should be a true dragon bone from the Primordial Era, and moreover, the remains of a Divine Realm powerhouse!"

Long Teng clearly did not know the exact origin of this dragon bone, but that did not prevent him from speculating.

Ye Yuan was greatly shocked: "The Primordial Era! That means it has been a million years since now?"

The history of the Divine Realm was no longer verifiable, but according to chronological divisions, the period a million years ago and earlier was called the Primordial Era, while the period from the decline of the Divine Dao to a million years ago was called the Ancient Era.

If Long Teng said this dragon bone was from the Primordial Era, it naturally had a history of over a million years.

It was unimaginable that a dragon bone could remain undecayed for a million years. How powerful must the owner of this bone have been in life?

"Hey, you know quite a bit, kid. Indeed, this dragon bone is from a million years ago! However, because of the vast age, the divine dao aura on this bone has completely dissipated, so don't expect to glean any divine dao secrets from it. But with this Primordial Dragon Bone, it is highly promising for your bloodline to evolve into the royal clan bloodline."

Long Teng looked at Ye Yuan with a half-smile, as if seeing through something.

Ye Yuan's heart tightened. This old fellow was extremely shrewd and seemed to have noticed something.

Every move he made was under his surveillance; he had probably guessed something long ago.

But it seemed that Long Teng harbored no ill intentions toward him.

Since the other party did not call it out, Ye Yuan decided to continue playing dumb.

Ye Yuan thought for a moment and said: "This dragon bone should also be a treasure for you, Senior. Why are you giving it to me?"

Long Teng laughed heartily: "This old bones of mine have long lost the qualification to seek the Divine Realm. Even if I refined ten more such dragon bones, it would be a waste. It's better to let you, kid, have the benefit."

Ye Yuan squinted slightly, as if guessing Long Teng's intentions.

Undoubtedly, Long Teng was deliberately nurturing him. But what his purpose was, Ye Yuan could not tell.

It seemed that under the current circumstances, Ye Yuan had no other choice. Even if it was drinking poison to quench thirst, he would have to drink it!

According to the news from Zhao Qian, Ji Canglan might have already reached the strength of the Ten Great Divine Kings. This news weighed on Ye Yuan's heart like a mountain.

What he needed now was strength!

The royal clan bloodline held immense appeal for Ye Yuan!

"Then thank you, Senior! Ye Yuan has another question: what exactly are the divine inscriptions you mentioned earlier? And what is their relationship with the Divine Realm?"

By now, Ye Yuan was very certain that these divine inscriptions definitely belonged to Divine Realm powerhouses.

But how to use them, Ye Yuan was still completely in the dark.

Since Long Teng could name the divine inscriptions at a glance, he must know something about them.

"Divine inscriptions are a secret of the dragon clan. You are not a dragon, so I cannot tell you. Once you have fully refined this dragon bone and achieved the royal clan bloodline, I will tell you about the divine inscriptions," Long Teng said calmly.
