Chapter 85: The Remaining Hope
However, it is said that Li Xiang's soul is pinned on the body of the new patriarch of the dragon clan, Long Xiang, and leads the young dragons to hide in the Dragon Ball. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
There are many experiences in the middle, especially for Li Xiang, like a dream, experiencing a bizarre world.
In a flash, trillions of years pass by like streamers!
The winds of change!
Time has entered the Middle Ages, and there are many strong and ugly ethnic groups on the Flood Desolate Continent.
According to the knowledge of later generations, Li Xiang knew that these huge creatures were collectively called: dinosaurs.
Because of their individual power, they have ruled almost the entire world.
But it is said that in the depths of the vast sea, there is a super-large island with a strange appearance, and the island is not fixed, but slowly moving with the sea.
The entire edge of the island is blocked by connected mountains.
The mountains reach into the sky, all of which are active volcanoes, constantly tilting dark red lava into the sea. Where it comes into contact with the sea, the water vapor is steaming and the smoke is filling.
Above the island, there is an endless plain, with a circumference of thousands of miles. The lush vegetation makes this a sea of green!
The towering giant trees are straight and tall, reaching into the sky, with tender grass and soft flowers.
In the woods, insects and birds sometimes chirp, and sometimes there are nameless beasts roaring, warning that this is not a peaceful place on the surface!
In the middle of the plains, in the woods of the forest!
There is a huge stone building rising from the ground, connecting the sky and the earth, towering into the sky!
The building is in the shape of an eight-sided cone tower, the size of each side is general, the bottom is about 200 zhang long on each side, there are steps to go up, each step is more than zhang, all are built by the stone, the stone is huge, the whole body is crystal clear, there is no flaw.
Counting carefully, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-eight steps, which seems to imply a mystery.
With the steps up, each side narrows, to the top, more than 20 zhang, is a platform, such as the mirror surface is smooth, still clear and crystalline! There is a small stone platform in the center of the platform, about ten zhang high, it is rectangular.
There is a black dragon-shaped statue on the stone platform, with teeth and claws, and the pride is soaring! Look at the image, it is the former dragon patriarch, the long fallen Xuanming Water Dragon, and its general size, its shape is also the same as the moment of fall: the back is winding and circling, the two claws grasp the ground, the forebody is raised to the sky, the right paw is grabbed forward, and stretched out to Yuyu!
This is the heroic gesture of his fall!
Under the sunshine, the whole cone tower, the treasure light flows, the clarity is extraordinary, except for the black dragon statue, all of them are built by the fire crystal, the size of the handwriting is jaw-dropping. I didn't expect that around the pagoda, it was covered with lush flowers and trees, without a trace of yellow, but more verdant, I thought it should be the reason for the black dragon statue.
Sure enough, if you look closely, a faint black mist faintly spit out from the mouth of the black dragon, and as soon as it came out of the wide mouth, it slowly sank, and the black mist continued to flow down the stairs, like the twilight under the sunset, faintly, hazy, and seemed to extend all the way to the depths of the jungle.
This is atomized Xuanming decanter water.
With its presence, even barren land, it can nourish all things.
Under the pagoda, in the middle of each side, there is a straight road paved with fire crystal stones, about one zhang wide, constantly extending into the depths of the jungle.
The stone road is nearly a thousand miles long, stretching straight to the end, obscured by the volcano around it!
The mountain is ten thousand feet high, and the peak is directly sheltered in the clouds.
The cliff rising from the ground at the end of the road stretches all the way to the top of the mountain, straight up and down, without a single bulge or depression, like a giant axe cutting directly from the top of the mountain, leaving half of it, and the other half disappearing out of thin air.
There is a huge crater at the top of the peak, and the red magma emerges from it and tilts into the sea, and the hot magma makes a gurgling sound when it touches the sea, and the mist flies.
Viewed from above, the island looks like an oversized iron barrel.
A volcano is connected to a volcano, and the mountains are connected, and the cliffs like knives and axes cut off the connection between the plains and the sea are cut off from each other!
What a fairyland view, magnificent!
"Leaping Dragon Gate!" A loud roar suddenly came from the depths of the jungle, hitting the volcanic cliff and then returning, one after the other, boom, boom, and the sound was endless!
The sound came from the very center of the forest, the Ignition Tower.
At this time, dozens of gray-backed young dragons circled sporadically on the platform at the top of the tower, compared to the thick pitch black with the Xuanshui Dragon, the color of these young dragons was more chaotic and mottled, mainly black and gray, they were all the descendants of the survivors of the dragon and phoenix catastrophe, and the baptism of countless years made the breath of Xuanming Deci Water in their bodies more and more dim. But the fierceness that flowed from their eyes from time to time told that the majesty of the dragon clan was inviolable!
Their eyes are full of indomitable confidence and determination!
Before the young dragon, at the edge of the platform, there stood a dark dragon, dozens of times larger than these boys, but much smaller than the predecessors in those memories.
"Boys, the path of experience is full of thorns, and it requires perseverance and wisdom. By choosing to come here, you are aware of the danger and prepared for it. โ
"As long as you cross the dragon gate, you can become a qualified Xuanming Water Dragon, and you can shoulder its free choice of direction to protect the common people, and set off!" he roared, it turned out that the voice just now was also from him.
"Hopeโthey'll all leap over the volcano and the dragon swim into the sea!" he sighed inwardly, knowing that it was a luxury!
Hearing his announcement, the young dragons descended the stairs in groups of three or five in the direction they had chosen, each claw unusually firm.
When they reached the bottom of the tower, the black mist that flowed from the top of the tower thinned out, and white smoke rose from the claws of the young dragon who was walking in front, and a bitter groan came from the bottom of his throat. It turned out that the suppression of the Xuanshui mist was gradually lost, and the breath of separation from the fire in the fire crystal finally emanated, and even burned into their souls.
Only by leaving the fire can the impurities in their bodies and the stagnant tendons on their backs be refined, and the pure chaotic body of water can be achieved.
This is the refining process of the dragon clan today.
However, how many hardships will it take to complete this long road away from the fire crystal, and it will require not only physical strength, but also supreme perseverance and determination to move forward.
All the young dragons ignored the white smoke that was gradually dissipating, and still walked forward with their heads held high, as if nothing had happened!
Pain can only remain in the heart.
As they walked along, the dense jungle on both sides of the road slowly revealed their figures, and several adult gray-backed dragons looked at the children in the distance with mixed feelings, their eyes full of reluctance and nostalgia, and a little worry and anxiety.
They are all failures after training, and they will never be able to get rid of this stagnation tendon, without the body of Xuanming and Decaying Water, they will never be able to gather water into clouds, fly away from this plain, and travel the vast world!
The top of the hedron tower, above the platform
The black dragon who presided over the experience was staring at the young dragons who were gradually moving away, at this time, he seemed to feel something, slowly turned around, and a figure was standing behind him:
In the middle of the torso, there are two arms and legs, the arms have five-fingered hands, and the legs have five-fingered feet. There are shoulders on the arms, and there is a head in the middle of the shoulder, and on the head there are eyes, rhinoplasty, and a wide mouth, and both ears are born on both sides.
This is - people!
The black dragon was shocked, what kind of creature was this, how could it suddenly appear here, although it obviously felt that its body was weak, but why did it have a faint coercion?
Indeed, compared to the huge body of the black dragon, this "person" is too small!
"Long And!", the "man" opened his mouth and spoke, his voice was extremely old!
"Patriarch?" "The dragon was shocked by both the weakness of the patriarch and the strange body that was so strange.
After 8,000 years of retreat, how could the patriarch change like this?
"Patriarch, you... How did you become like this?"
This is none other than the second patriarch of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Phase. At the same time, it also closed Li Xiang's soul, naturally, his will could not control this powerful body, nor could it affect the other party. He can only be like a spectator, observing this strange and familiar world through the eyes of the dragon.
The dragon face was serious, and instead of responding positively, he asked, "How many young dragons are still training?"
"This is the last batch of hatchlings, and there are no producers left behind in the clan. The black dragon replied respectfully.
"What about the altars?" said Ryuxiang again.
"It's all done. The dragon said so.
After the dragon finished reporting, Long Xiang was slightly relieved, and then paced to the side of the stone steps, and said slowly: "This is what I have achieved from 8,000 years of retreat!" The voice paused, and a small turtle shell suddenly appeared in his right hand, and the turtle shell was round, like an elliptical ball. The turtle's back has four lines in the horizontal and vertical directions, extending from the junction of the tortoiseshell on one side to the junction of the tortoiseshell on the other, dividing the turtle's back into nine pieces. The whole tortoise shell is blue-gray, but the nine-square grid on it is black color, and the carving of strange beasts on it is terrifying and hideous.
From time to time, there is a black fog, covering the face of the tortoiseshell, which seems to be hidden but not covered, and it seems to be clear but not clear, and it is impossible to see the reality and the void.
Long Xiang stared at the tortoise shell, pondered for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Eight thousand years ago, with the help of this dragon tortoise shell, I comprehended the sixty-four heavenly hexagrams, and the retreat has been deduced so far, and finally let me get a glimpse of the mystery. โ
The dragon and the huge dragon's eyes were slightly surprised, and it must be extraordinary to make the patriarch so solemn.
At this time, the dragon phase paused and looked up at the tall and winding black dragon, although it was very different from the huge body of the black dragon, but it was more calm than it.
He looked at Long Ji and changed his words, "Long Ji, you are the first descendant of my clan to complete the path from the fire crystal, and the only Xuanshui Dragon who stayed at this altar. โ
The dragon was even more frightened, he hadn't seen him for eight thousand years, where was the high-spirited and arrogant patriarch, how could he be so depressed?
Although the body was still unfamiliar, he knew that it must be his beloved patriarch in front of him.
The dragon raised his hand to stop the words that Long He wanted to say, and continued, "I should also tell you the many secrets of my dragon clan. There was a gloom in his tone. But he said in his heart, "Time is running out, if you don't talk about it, I'm afraid there will be no chance again!"
Long Xiang put his hands behind his back, straightened his back, stopped and walked away from the edge of the Fire Crystal Tower, looked into the distance with his eyes, and slowly said the secrets that had been blocked for hundreds of millions of years since the Ancient Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation!
"In the primeval period, my dragon clan and the Lihuo Phoenix clan fought in front of the last Fengqi Mountain, although the Feng clan succumbed to forty-nine numbers, but suppressed hundreds of thousands of people of my Xuanshui Dragon Clan, at that time all the dragon clans were Xuanshui body, not as weak as now. In desperation, my dragon clan summoned Jiuziding at the expense of the whole clan, wanting to seal it forever. And I, under the orders of the previous patriarch, led all the young dragons to hide in the Dragon Balls, hoping to avoid this fate.
And the Feng Clan also used a similar seal to seal the last immature Fire Leaving Phoenix, and with the power of Zhou Tianxingdou, it turned into a meteor to break away from the primeval wilderness and fly into the vast universe!
However, when it broke away, it blew up Fengqi Mountain.
When we walked out of Dragon Ball, the entire Fengqi Mountain was located in a convenient place that turned into a forest at our feet.
However, the desolate land fell into the purgatory of the sea of fire because of the splashing fire crystals.
Since the day my dragon clan was born, I have had the responsibility of being born by the common people.
The patriarch of the previous generation said that the people were suffering, and the flood and famine calamity were not caused by my dragon clan?
Since then, I have led the rest of the young dragons throughout the desolate land, turning the mystical waters into oceans, deserts into oases, extinguishing raging lava into jungles, and giving endangered creatures the power to thrive!
At the same time, collect all the uninspired hedron stones in the world and here.
It will take another 10,000 years to resolve the scourge caused by the dragon and phoenix catastrophe.
However, there is one panic that has been spreading in our hearts, and that is that for countless years, no matter how hard we tried, we could no longer feel the power of Mother Chaos Earth. Our power gradually begins to dissipate, and without the nourishment of Mother Earth, Xuanshui is just water without a source, and it will eventually dry up.
The most important thing is that they can't sense the power of the Earth Mother, the young dragons can't refine the stagnant tendons on their backs, and they can't reach adulthood, is our dragon clan going to die eventually?
It was the first time I had sunk into the ground for 8,000 years, meditating on it, and finally, I borrowed from the breeding methods of the beasts of the wilderness, and divided the young dragons into male and female in the hope of reproduction, but at the cost of giving up the endless life of my people and accepting birth, old age, sickness and death.
Then I transformed the dragon clan, built an altar with the fire crystal, experienced the road, the flame waterfall, and used external force to refine the stagnant tendons through the way of the fire experience.
In order to prevent the breath of fire from disturbing the creatures of the earth, the last remaining power of the Earth Mother was used to isolate the land and make it float into the vast ocean.
And you are the first one after the transformation of my dragon clan to complete the path away from the fire crystal and achieve the body of Xuanshui.
However, for many years, without the protection of the Chaos Earth Mother, with the complete death of the first generation of dragons after the catastrophe, the disadvantages of relying on external forces to forcibly break through and obtain the Xuanshui Dragon Body have continued to appear: the body is strong, but the heart is full of demons.
Many dragons who have completed their training have gradually degenerated, abandoning the dignity of our dragon clan and intersecting with other wild beasts. With the continuous intersection of the bloodline of the dragon clan and other beast creatures, countless strong individuals who have not evolved from the Heavenly Dao have been created, and without the body of the dragon clan, they have maintained the bloodline and strength of the dragon clan.
With their supreme power and transcendent wisdom, they have gradually ruled over all other things, and there are even our dragons behind them.
Countless dragons have long been unable to understand why with the supreme power of our dragon clan, they are still trapped on an isolated island. You're not exempt from this. Empty shouting of this slogan of suffering, but you have long forgotten that our power was given by Mother Chaos and given to us to protect all living beings.
No power can be built on the basis of enslavement of the world.
The people are suffering!
The responsibility shouldered by our dragon clan, who is still hiding in our hearts now!
Once there is a desire for power, it also diffuses the true self.
Lava Falls stops all the losers and their ambitions to travel the world. But even those who have completed the experience will not be able to stop the erosion of the demons.
Since you, none of the Xuanshui Dragons that have leapt into the sea have returned. They don't want to come back here, it's a cage in their hearts.
If you hadn't walked the path away from the fire crystal over and over again, I'm afraid you would have been full of demons.
Look at the young dragons who are drifting away, their hearts are resolute and their eyes are determined, but what drives them is only the so-called freedom and supreme true power.
Today's dragons have fallen!
It is far from the concept of the Ancient Ancestors, the Xuanshui Dragons, who abandoned the lives of the entire clan and suppressed them from the Fire Phoenix Clan.
The idea is dead, and there is no need for the dragons to exist.
It's just that I'm ashamed of the patriarch!Alas......"
At this point, in a long sigh, the dragon told the dragon and finished telling the dragon about the existence of the dragon family.
Immediately, the dragon phase fell into chagrin, and the dragon was immersed in shock.
The sun has long since set, and only the stars are left.
It's been a long time, and the night is late.
All sounds are gone!
The shocked black dragon woke up first, as if he had made up his mind, and stepped forward to interrupt the contemplative dragon phase, and said, "Patriarch, we will never be able to match the glory and glory of our ancestors. And we will not forget the responsibility of 'being born by the people'. โ
He paused, his tone slightly aggravated, "But we believe that a unified order can promote the wisdom and survivability of the common people. Since the ethnic group was born in this world, it must have the consciousness of being born and dying in Si. Proper guidance is beneficial, and it can't just be a needless amount of care!"
Long Xiang's face was full of vicissitudes, and his voice became more and more old, but his back was straight, he didn't turn around, and he didn't answer him, but said: "They have been setting off for a long time, and they are secretly staring at some, let's go!"
Seeing that the patriarch was getting more and more depressed, and his small body was getting a little older, he still had to ask about his doubts about the results of his retreat and this body, but he didn't dare to mention it too much, so he had to hide his heart and retreat.
I saw that his four claws gradually grew white mist, and the more and more he gathered, he actually held him up alive, and the white mist was continuous, even though it could be seen clearly in the dark night. After a brief pause to ascend to a high place, he flew away in a moment.
The old patriarch looked at the figure of Long He and muttered to himself, "All living beings, can you still avoid this catastrophe?"
......
And Li Xiang, who has always been attached to the body of the dragon phase, is also a constant thinker, because he can't move, he has to fall into contemplation when the vision of the dragon phase has not changed.
Because the body of the dragon phase is completely different from the internal structure of the later generations, the most important thing is that the body of the later generations can completely carry the Xuanming Decanterium, whether it is the inheritance of the Xuanming Decanter, or those who have eaten the delicacies he made, they are all transformed by the Xuanming Decane Water, why can the human beings in later generations fit perfectly with the Xuanming Decanter?
Could it be that human beings just started their evolution from the dragon phase and continued to do so?
......
