Chapter 945: The Will of the Dragon!
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon’s gaze locked onto Su Yi, and within its brilliant dragon pupils surged a light both ancient and profound. “This is a blessing—a gift from the dragons to the insignificant humans. To become a Divine Dragon Messenger, to lead the clan as protectors of the dragons, is the ultimate glory and pride for humanity. No human can refuse this,” the dragon declared.
“Swear to follow and remain loyal to the dragon clan for your entire life…”
Su Yi raised his head, his sharp gaze unwavering as he asked, “So, does this mean that in order to obtain the three drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul, I must swear to become a servant of the dragon clan? That even my descendants, generation after generation, would also be bound as servants to your dragon clan, forever loyal to you?”
“Um…”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon appeared taken aback. Its majestic eyes shimmered with astonishment as it replied, “It can be interpreted that way. However, becoming a Divine Dragon Messenger is the greatest honor. Your future generations will live under the protection and shelter of our dragon clan. You, too, will ascend to the pinnacle of power in this world…”
“Senior, I’m not interested in this. Please find someone else—or just let me leave,” Su Yi interrupted firmly before the dragon could continue.
For a moment, the fiery glow in the dragon’s eyes dimmed, as if it had been extinguished by Su Yi’s words.
“What did you just say? You don’t want the three drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul?” The Five-clawed Golden Dragon was visibly stunned. In all the countless years it had conducted this test, no human had ever resisted such an offer of power and glory. Yet this young man before it had outright refused.
“I do want them, actually,” Su Yi admitted with a wry smile. “But I’ll pass on becoming a Divine Dragon Messenger. I have no interest in binding myself, or my descendants, to serve your dragon clan. That so-called honor and pride—whoever wants it can have it. It doesn’t interest me.”
“Um…”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon was momentarily speechless. Su Yi’s decisive refusal, along with his resolute expression, made it clear he wasn’t joking.
“Human boy, do you even understand what kind of opportunity you’re giving up? Even with your remarkable talent, you must realize that achieving supremacy in this world is nearly impossible on your own. But if you possess my Golden Dragon Essence Blood and Golden Dragon Soul, everything will change. You will become the strongest in this world, standing above all others. The entire world will bow at your feet. Is that not something you desire?”
The dragon’s voice resonated deeply, carrying a trace of intimidation and the overwhelming might of the dragon race.
“This opportunity is indeed tempting,” Su Yi acknowledged with a calm nod. “But thank you for your kindness—I’m not interested.”
“Why?” the Five-clawed Golden Dragon asked, genuine confusion flickering in its ancient voice.
“I’ve already explained. I have no desire to become a servant to your dragon clan, and even less to see my descendants bound to serve you for generations. To you, this might be the ultimate honor and pride, but that’s only your perspective,” Su Yi said, his voice steady and firm.
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon stared at him silently, its massive presence filling the void as it listened to his words.
“In your eyes, humans may seem insignificant,” Su Yi continued. “To you, no human could possibly resist this temptation. But that’s only because you’ve never met someone like me.”
Su Yi lifted his head and gazed straight into the dragon’s awe-inspiring eyes. His tone was unwavering, his will like steel. “I am different. I will never be anyone’s servant. Nor will I ever allow my descendants to live as servants—not even for the dragons!”
For a brief moment, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon’s expression faltered, as if a ripple had disturbed the impenetrable calm of its ancient soul.
Perhaps it was the power of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique or the indomitable will that resided within him, but as Su Yi spoke, the Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul within his mind stirred. A surge of determination welled up inside him, radiating a crimson light that seemed to illuminate the very depths of his soul. It was an unyielding strength—a conviction that could not be shaken, even by the mighty presence of a dragon.
Su Yi yearned for great power, pursuing it even in his dreams. If he couldn’t become the strongest in this world, he would never be able to step onto the Sacred Mountain or wash away the bullying he had endured. However, if the price of achieving such power was becoming a servant, Su Yi would reject it without hesitation.
With the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique within him, Su Yi felt that his technique was not inferior to that of the dragon.
In front of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, Su Yi experienced an inexplicable confidence and intuition as his Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique activated. Once the mysteries of the technique were fully unlocked, perhaps he could match the dragon, or even surpass it. With the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique and the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse, he could become the strongest in this world. Time was the only thing that needed to slow down.
Upon hearing Su Yi’s words, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon paused and let out a sigh. Its claws moved slightly, creating a golden void fissure behind Su Yi. “The path behind you leads out,” it said. “Once you step through, you will be completely cut off from such opportunities. But young human, you should think carefully. If you refuse, you will miss out on what so many others have dreamed of. You still have the chance to regret it!”
“Thank you for your guidance. I won’t regret it.”
Su Yi smiled, his tattered clothes barely covering his body. With a wave of his sleeve and a determined smile on his face, he turned and walked into the golden void fissure, disappearing.
Without obtaining the Golden Dragon Essence Blood and Golden Dragon Soul, Su Yi still gained immense benefits from the three challenges. It was a great opportunity, and he did not regret it.
“Splash!”
Su Yi passed through the golden crack, only to find that it was not an exit, but rather a dazzling golden light—a tremendous dragon power that traversed through ancient times, instantly arriving.
Su Yi’s gaze trembled as the surroundings fluctuated. He found himself in a glittering void, with a galaxy floating above his head. But it was no ordinary galaxy—it was a radiant golden one, with each star shining brightly in golden light, ancient in aura and piercingly sharp.
“Young human, congratulations on passing the fourth and truly final challenge. You are the only person in so many years to have truly passed the test. Therefore, what you will receive is not just three drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and a strand of Golden Dragon Soul, but nine drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and three strands of Golden Dragon Soul.”
At the same time, the voice of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon echoed again, accompanied by laughter and resounding dragon chants.
“Senior, what exactly is going on?” Su Yi asked, astonished and bewildered.
“The most important thing for a dragon is not the physical body, not the dragon soul, and not even the combat power. It is the will. The true test was of your will. The final challenge tested your will, and only you could obtain the true opportunity—the dragon’s will!”
After the words of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, it gradually faded away.
“Roar, roar, roar…”
From the depths of the void, dragon chants resounded as nine dazzling golden lights emerged, illuminating the golden starry sky. Nine colossal dragons, their massive bodies soaring and intersecting in the starry expanse, descended from ancient times, exuding unparalleled dragon might as they hurtled toward Su Yi.
