Chapter 951: The Ancient Disaster!
Of course, this does not mean that the Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul are the same.
On the contrary, treasures like the Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul are exceedingly rare in the world.
The origins of the mysterious space are shrouded in secrecy, yet it has granted Su Yi everything he possesses today.
This realization reinforces Su Yi’s belief that the mysterious space holds far greater significance and value to him than even the three strands of Golden Dragon Soul and the nine drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood.
Thus, when Su Yi felt the gaze of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon upon him, he became cautious.
It seemed the Five-clawed Golden Dragon sensed Su Yi’s unease. Its enormous dragon eyes flickered slightly, and its voice softened as it spoke:
“Young man, there is no need for such vigilance. Even if you carry treasures of immense value, they are of little concern to me. I am simply curious about you. After all, you are the human I chose—the only one to pass the four tests and successfully fuse the nine drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and three strands of Golden Dragon Soul. What you now bear is not just your destiny; it is my hope, the hope of the dragon clan.”
“Dragon clan…”
Hearing these words, Su Yi felt a powerful and indescribable shock.
In his previous life, dragons were merely mythical totems, revered symbols of legend that stirred longing and awe deep within his soul.
But in this world, dragons, phoenixes, and similar mythical beings had vanished long ago, buried in the annals of ancient history.
Now, a real Five-clawed Golden Dragon stood before Su Yi, shaking him to his core. Not only that, he had unexpectedly acquired nine drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and three strands of Golden Dragon Soul.
“Senior Golden Dragon, what is the meaning of all this?”
Su Yi asked, his voice filled with confusion.
How had this place come to exist? How had he come to possess such priceless treasures from the Five-clawed Golden Dragon? And most importantly, what was the purpose behind it all?
“A great calamity looms,” the Five-clawed Golden Dragon replied, its voice solemn. “The dragon clan, phoenix clan, white tiger clan, Xuanwu clan, gods, demons, and every race in existence will not escape its grasp. The ancient world is in upheaval, and the strongest forces are vying to grasp a sliver of hope…”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon’s dragon eyes seemed to penetrate Su Yi’s doubts. Within their depths, galaxies shifted and the chaos of the universe unfolded. Beastly roars and the rumble of thunder echoed faintly, as if recounting an ancient tale of destruction.
“Such overwhelming pressure!”
Even the mere aura emanating from the dragon’s eyes caused Su Yi’s Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul to tremble.
Through the ethereal connection forged by the dragon’s gaze, Su Yi felt the overwhelming turbulence of a bygone era.
“Ah…”
With a deep sigh, the light in the Five-clawed Golden Dragon’s eyes dimmed, and the terrifying aura dissipated.
Looking directly at Su Yi, it said, “You have acquired the Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul. Moments ago, you glimpsed a breath of the ancient world, a memory that no one else can ever feel again. It was a great catastrophe. Though it has been buried in time, it has not vanished. I fear that the calamity is drawing near and will soon descend upon this world once more. When that time comes, no one will escape its reach. Compared to the past, this catastrophe will be even more devastating.”
“A great catastrophe is coming!”
Su Yi felt an unexpected tremor in his heart. According to the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, during that ancient great catastrophe, both the dragon race and the phoenix race were completely annihilated. If such a catastrophe were to happen again, who in this world could stop it? It would be powerful enough to destroy heaven and earth.
“No, if the catastrophe buried everything, then how could Senior Golden Dragon appear here?”
Su Yi shook his head and looked at the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, questioning: if it truly was the so-called Primeval Catastrophe that destroyed everything, how could this Five-clawed Golden Dragon still exist and appear before him?
“Do you think I’m still alive?”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon smiled bitterly, meeting Su Yi’s gaze. “What you are seeing now is nothing but a remnant of my soul.”
“A remnant spirit… how is that possible?”
Su Yi was puzzled. Although his cultivation wasn’t particularly advanced, as a Soul Tamer practicing the Heavens Taming Incantation, he knew that a remnant spirit—even one as mighty as a true dragon soul—could not have survived from ancient times until now.
Moreover, a remnant spirit could never compare to a complete and true dragon soul. It was simply impossible.
“You find it hard to believe, don’t you? How could a remnant spirit persist from ancient times until now?”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon smiled faintly and continued, “There’s no need to doubt it. The souls of my dragon race are incredibly powerful. I believe you’ve experienced this firsthand after integrating three strands of the Golden Dragon Soul. More importantly, this place is a sealed space, specifically created to minimize the dissipation of remnant spirits.
Over the years, I’ve only opened eight such spaces to select a Divine Dragon Messenger, seeking a chance to restore the dragon race.
Unfortunately, of the eight attempts, only the first was even partially successful. The other seven were complete failures, seemingly affected by the great calamity. The creatures of this world are becoming weaker and weaker…”
The Five-clawed Golden Dragon paused, its gaze reflecting a mix of emotions, including helplessness. It then looked at Su Yi, and amidst its despair, a glimmer of hope emerged.
“Until I met you,” the dragon said, “I never expected someone like you, a mere human, to bring me so many surprises—so many, in fact, that even I can’t fully see through you. For that, I must thank that little phoenix. I had no intention of reopening this test and was merely sleeping here. It was that little phoenix who awakened me, and through it, I encountered you. You’ve brought me a spark of hope.”
“A remnant spirit, and there’s a phoenix too? That means Su Xiaoshuai is truly a phoenix!”
Su Yi’s eyes lit up with excitement. According to the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, what he encountered could indeed be called a remnant spirit—a legendary existence that had survived from ancient times within this sealed space. Such incredible power was truly worthy of the dragon race, whose souls were incomparably strong.
From the dragon’s words, Su Yi also confirmed that Su Xiaoshuai’s true form was indeed that of a phoenix—a genuine phoenix hatchling.
“Why did you give me the Golden Dragon Essence Blood and the Golden Dragon Soul?” Su Yi asked, his tone sharp. “I’ve already made it clear that I have no interest in becoming a servant of the dragon tribe or the so-called Divine Dragon Messenger. Can you explain what all of this is about?”
“You’ll understand everything in time, once you reach a certain level of strength,” the Five-clawed Golden Dragon replied with a faint smile. “Revealing it to you now would only burden you and hinder your cultivation. Of course, that’s only if you even have the opportunity to reach such a level.”
The dragon continued, its tone calm but firm. “You passed four trials, not three. You absorbed nine drops of Golden Dragon Essence Blood and three strands of the Golden Dragon Soul—not three drops and one strand. Thus, you don’t need to become the Divine Dragon Messenger of our tribe.”
