Chapter Twenty-Three: Dragon Realm!
Xiao Shen explained to Tang Lin: "The barbarians are said to be not pure human beings, but human beings mixed with demons, with human surnames and human bodies as the main body, but their bodies are mixed with demon power. ”
"Could it be that the barbarian gods are all half-humans?" Tang Lin said shockedly.
Xiao Ash nodded: "It can be understood in this way. ”
Tang Lin secretly said in his heart: "I don't know what my barbarian bloodline will look like after awakening?" He looked out the window, and suddenly missed his mother and father very much.
...... Dragon Head Palace, Inner Hall.
The patriarch sat on the highest golden dragon seat, and there were five golden-robed figures sitting on both sides, including men and women, old and young, each of whom had a very majestic aura, sitting there, as if the wind and fire, thunder and lightning were swirling around his body.
The eyebrows of several people were as shiny as mist, and their eyes were as bright as stars.
If anyone from the Long family sees these people, they all know that this is the legendary ten saints of the Long family! Some of these ten people have survived for thousands of years, and the youngest ones are all hundreds of years old.
"This time I call you all. The patriarch looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "There are two things, the first is that the seal of the 'Ancient Battlefield' seems to be not very stable, and evil demons and monsters often pop out of it recently, and many of the soldiers stationed there have been devoured by the monsters and lost their lives. ”
"The Ice Emperor has issued an order to send the saints of the Sanctuary and the Moon God Pavilion to the past to investigate, this 'ancient battlefield' is very important, once the seal is broken, the ancient demons that are sealed inside will escape from it, and when the time comes, the world will be in chaos in the Cangxue Empire!"
Hearing the patriarch's words, everyone looked solemn, knowing that the matter of this "ancient battlefield" was not a joke.
"I have decided to send three of you, and any of you who wishes to come can recommend yourself. The patriarch looked around at the crowd.
"I'll go. ”
Immediately someone said.
"I've been there before, I have a little experience, I'll go too, and see what kind of demons are causing trouble. ”
"Count me in. ”
Immediately, three people spoke up, and the rest were silent without any objections.
Although everyone knew that this ancient battlefield was very dangerous, and the saints would fall into it, however, in their long lives, they had long regarded the interests of their family as above everything else, including their own lives!
For the sake of the family's future, they are not afraid of any demons.
"Hmm. The patriarch bowed his head slightly and said, "Then it will trouble the three of you." In addition to this matter, there is another thing, this barbarian bloodline test, a total of two people awakened, and in two years, it will be the time when our family will send the awakened people to the barbarians for cultivation, and one of the two awakened this time is the potential of the ten locks. ”
"This person is a child born to Xiang'er, there is a gap between the Long family, I hope to be able to open the Dragon Realm 'Dragon Refining Pool' to him, such a talent, if it can be used by my Long family in the future, it will be able to add wings to the tiger, and in another thousand years, when this son becomes a saint, my Long family's status in the Cangxue Dynasty will be able to sit on an equal footing with the Moon God Pavilion!"
Hearing the patriarch's words, the ten people were silent.
After a while, someone nodded and said: "I have heard of this matter, and he has also contradicted you, it seems that this kid has a lot of grievances against our Long family, fortunately, when Xiang'er was brought back, he was not under house arrest, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain it now." ”
"Yes, patriarch, you should send someone to protect him secretly, although he is now a half-saint, his strength is not very strong, and it will take a few hundred years before he can be fully fledged and leave our protection. ”
The patriarch nodded, "Yes, that's exactly what I mean." ”
"I hope this child can understand your hardships, many things are unavoidable, if it weren't for the concern about the bloodline of the Long family, who would stop that marriage? ”
"There is indeed too much helplessness in this world, depending on fate. ”
Hearing everyone's words, the patriarch sighed lightly in his heart, Tang Lin's resolute cheeks appeared in his mind, and there was a vague outline of his daughter's shadow, and a tenderness surged in his heart, and he said secretly: "What I said to him in the Dragon Head Hall today, is it too ruthless?"
He sighed softly and shook his head bitterly.
...... The next day, the Dragon Head Palace.
Tang Lin came here early in the morning, and saw the patriarch sitting on the dragon throne above, with Long Zining standing beside him, he looked at the glorious and luxurious empty hall, and the patriarch who was more than ten zhang away, and a wave of sympathy suddenly rose in his heart.
The power position of covering the sky with one hand may not necessarily bring happiness.
Sometimes it's more of a responsibility, and there is a lot of helplessness that extends from that responsibility.
Tang Lin sighed secretly, he didn't understand his grandfather's hardships, but as a son of man, he naturally looked forward to the reunion of his mother and father.
Who is a son who doesn't want to see his parents happy together?
It's one thing to understand, it's another to know where you stand.
Those so-called respect for opponents is such a truth, respect is one thing, enemies are still enemies, this is the position!
Thousands of people have thousands of positions, which is a helpless sadness.
The patriarch looked at Tang Lin, his expression was not as cold as yesterday, but a little warmer, and said softly: "Today, I will take you to the Dragon Realm. ”
"The Dragon Realm is the real core of our Long Family! The Dragon Realm is a small reading space, which was a broken space obtained from the ancient battlefield in ancient times, which contains the blessed land of the Cave Heaven, gathers a rich aura, and can give birth to life. ”
Listening to the patriarch's words, Tang Lin knew that he was deliberately saying it to himself, his eyes flickered, and he didn't make a sound.
"Let's go. With a wave of his hand, a spatial passage immediately appeared behind him, and the distorted air shook the void, and the light seemed to be reversed.
Long Zining glanced at Tang Lin, then followed behind the patriarch and walked towards this distorted space.
Tang Lin followed.
The moment he stepped into the space, Tang Lin's eyes flickered, and the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up, revealing a vast world.
Lantian, Baiyun.
Tang Lin inhaled deeply, and the air was filled with the fragrance of various flowers.
In front of Tang Lin, there is a bluestone road, along the curved mountain road, leading to the top of a mountain peak, and on both sides of this mountain road, there are strange flowers and plants, bright and colorful, such as entering a sea of flowers.
This is the Dragon Realm.
The birds are singing and the air is fresh.
Tang Lin was secretly surprised in his heart.
"Let's go. The patriarch led the way in front and said, "In the Dragon Realm, there is a strong aura of heaven and earth, and one day of cultivation here is equal to a month outside! ”
Tang Lin and Long Zining both nodded.
"The Seven Star Martial Arts Pavilion has a Star Pavilion, and the Long Family has a Dragon Realm. Tang Lin secretly said in his heart: "I don't know what kind of things are in the Holy Hall, the Divine Martial Gate, and the Moon God Pavilion. ”
"In the Dragon Realm, there is a Barbarian Dragon Tablet, which was obtained from the Barbarian God Clan, and from that inscription, it can temper spiritual power. The patriarch explained to Tang Lin and the others: "You have to temper your spiritual power well, you are all half-saints now, but your spiritual power is still very weak, half-saints are a very long realm, and you have a long way to go." ”
Tang Lin nodded slightly.
Long Zining, who was beside him, raised her beautiful eyes and looked at him deeply, since the bloodline test was over, she had secretly asked her mother and knew Tang Lin's origin, but at this moment, she was still a little shocked to hear the patriarch talk about it again.
She has lived in the Long family since she was a child, was born with a golden key, is rich in resources, and when she was six years old, she had three martial arts masters teach him martial arts.
And Tang Lin, who is only in a remote town, has now come to this point, and the difficulties and obstacles are far from what she can imagine.
Soon, everyone stepped on thousands of bluestone slabs and stone steps to the top of this mountain. Tang Lin looked up, only to see that after walking up the steps, a vast open space appeared in front of everyone, with tall stones standing, clear pond water not far away, and a magnificent palace in the distance.
It's a quiet place, with only the sound of birdsong.
"There is a 'dragon refining pool' in the back mountain. The patriarch looked at Tang Lin and said, "You can enter it and cultivate for ten days. ”
Tang Lin nodded slightly.
Long Zining's body was shocked, her eyes widened, and she looked at the patriarch and Tang Lin in disbelief.
The patriarch felt her gaze and smiled: "This dragon refining pool originally needed people to contribute within the clan, but after deliberation, it was decided that Tang Lin's bloodline concentration had reached the level of ten locks, which was a level that the Long family had never had. ”
Tang Lin was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize that the "Dragon Refining Pool" that the patriarch said was not something that ordinary people could enter, and he looked up at the patriarch with his eyes flickering.
"Hmm. Long Zining nodded, she was not jealous, in her state of mind, she would not be jealous of anything for a long time.
Jealousy will only make you worse, not strengthen.
"Let's go. The patriarch took the two of them to the palace and said, "The people who cultivate in the Dragon Realm all live here, you can go in and choose a courtyard at will, there are elders who are in charge of you, remember to cultivate hard, and strive to awaken the barbarian bloodline as soon as possible." ”
Tang Lin nodded heavily.
After the patriarch left, Tang Lin said goodbye to Long Zining and chose a courtyard by himself, which was built in accordance with the highest scale construction style, all of which were small pond lotus, pine and cypress birch trees, and the eaves were like linjiao, full of ancient charm.
Tang Lin just wanted to awaken the barbarian bloodline in his body as soon as possible, and didn't look at the courtyard much, so he came to the back mountain, passing the bluestone road along the way, and from a jungle, he suddenly saw a pitch-black figure, dancing with his hands, as if he was catching something in the air.
Tang Lin stared at it, only to be taken aback, only to see that this figure was a pitch-black humanoid monster, with two pitch-black horns on the top of his head, a snake tail on his back, a slime-like object like a black carapace, pieces of granite-like muscles, protruding on his bare chest, and a pair of pale golden eyes, glowing with metallic luster.
