Chapter 175 Dragon Ball
Chapter 175: Dragon Ball
The most precious treasure of the ancient true dragon is not the dragon horn or the dragon scale, but the Dragon Ball sealed within the Boundary Gate Stone.
Long Yi knew this information and had been longing for this treasure.
However, without breaking the Boundary Gate Stone, he couldn't obtain the Dragon Ball, so he could only wait patiently.
Who would have thought that the secret realm would open while he was in seclusion?
By the time he vaguely sensed that something was wrong, it had already been a long time.
Only after Long Yi came out of seclusion did he realize that someone had taken the dragon scale and the Dragon Ball.
However, he knew who the survivors were.
As the ancestor of the Dragon Transformation Palace, he naturally had his own exclusive team. If all the information had to be reported to the sect's higher-ups, it was inevitable that these people would develop rebellious thoughts.
Collecting information was just something done casually.
"Yan'er is also at Little Warehouse Mountain... It's a good opportunity to see what Zhang Chi is capable of..."
Long Yi waved his hand, and the broken stones on the ground turned into powder, blown away by the wind.
At Little Warehouse Mountain, Zhang Chi had not sensed the impending danger. He was busy searching for clues everywhere.
There were no clues about Tang Ruoling's disappearance, but there were leads regarding Chen Runyu's disappearance.
Anyway, there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he could only try to come up with a solution himself.
As for the pearl he had taken out of the Boundary Gate Stone, he had long forgotten about it.
Divine objects had their own consciousness and were capable of self-preservation.
At that time, there were so many things happening on the island, and as time went on, it was gradually forgotten.
After leaving the secret realm, he also didn't think about studying it.
Zhang Chi never expected that the pearl was the root cause of Chen Runyu and Tang Ruoling's constant troubles.
Inside the secret realm, Chen Runyu looked at the unconscious Tang Ruoling on the ground and the glowing pearl in front of her, not knowing what to do for a moment.
A few days ago, when she learned that Zhang Chi and Tang Ruoling had gone out and hadn't returned all night, she naturally felt depressed.
After practicing swordsmanship, she went to the back mountain alone, her mind filled with countless thoughts, when suddenly a voice sounded in her ears.
"What troubles you?"
Under normal circumstances, Chen Runyu should have been afraid.
But at that moment, she inexplicably replied, "I don't want Senior Brother and Tang Ruoling to get married!"
"Very well, I will fulfill your wish."
Upon hearing this response, Chen Runyu was dumbfounded.
Who was she talking to?
Chen Runyu snapped back to reality and realized that she was no longer in the back mountain, but on top of a tall city wall.
Seeing this city wall, she couldn't help but recall the experiences in the secret realm and even developed PTSD.
"Where is this? Who are you?"
Chen Runyu drew his sword, trying to protect himself.
The voice quickly sounded again, "This is Mirage City, I am the Spirit of the Dragon Ball. You have passed the test and will become my master."
"What?" Chen Runyu had no idea when he had taken a test, feeling that everything was too bizarre.
Dragon Ball? Mirage City?
Is this a secret realm?
"When did I pass the test?" Chen Runyu asked.
The voice explained, "Do you remember the previous experience in the secret realm? That was the assessment for the four of you."
"Four?" Chen Runyu asked.
"Yes, your eldest martial brother brought me into the secret realm. I can only choose a suitable living being nearby to become the master of the Dragon Ball and receive the true dragon inheritance."
The four living beings referred to Zhang Chi, Bai Su, Zi Mian, and Chen Runyu.
The storage ring was sealed, but the Dragon Ball was not. At that time, it had already been activated. Divine objects have spirits, and while protecting themselves, they also select their masters.
"If that's the case, why didn't you choose Eldest Martial Brother to receive the inheritance?" Chen Runyu was not curious about why Zhang Chi carried the Dragon Ball. She just felt that the selection of the Dragon Ball was problematic.
Among the four of them, wasn't Zhang Chi the best performer?
Why choose her specifically?
"Their thoughts are too heavy, Bai Su is too foolish. Only you, with your wise and pure heart, can receive the true dragon inheritance."
"But Eldest Martial Brother is also kind!" Chen Runyu began to defend Zhang Chi.
Eldest Martial Brother is resourceful and decisive, but he never harms others, only protects himself. How can he be considered heavy-hearted?
Chen Runyu was well aware that if it weren't for Zhang Chi constantly protecting her, she would have a hard time surviving in that secret realm.
In extremely difficult situations, Zhang Chi would secretly eat tree bark to sustain himself, and in the face of strong enemies, it was Zhang Chi's cleverness that allowed him to survive.
In the end, Zhang Chi was abandoned by the Dragon Ball because he was too scheming, while she, who was protected, obtained the opportunity. This was unfair!
"Can you recognize Eldest Martial Brother as your master? Following him will definitely have a brighter future."
"... " The Spirit of the Dragon Ball fell silent.
After a moment, it explained, "You may not know what this inheritance represents. This Mirage City is a secret realm that you can carry with you. You are the only lord here, able to come and go freely. When you encounter danger, you can come in and take shelter."
In other words, your survival rate in dangerous situations will greatly increase.
Furthermore, the true dragon inheritance will give you the opportunity to transform into a dragon. As long as you don't perish and spend enough time, you can become a true dragon.
Are you willing to give up this kind of inheritance?"
Chen Runyu's heart also ached.
She was indeed moved, a personal secret realm, and a legacy of a dragon.
This is something that any cultivator would not be able to refuse, however, Chen Runyu refused.
After experiencing pain in her heart, she still firmly refused, saying, "Without Senior Brother's protection, I would not be able to survive, nor would I be able to gain your approval.
Moreover, compared to me, Senior Brother needs this legacy more."
Zhang Chi is the Senior Brother of the Sword Sect, under great pressure. Chen Runyu hopes to share some of the burden for him.
Dragon Ball: "......"
It didn't expect that after recognizing a master, it would still be transferred.
This is something it cannot accept.
"He cannot become my master, only you can. I have chosen you, and only when you die can I find a new master.
But, it definitely won't be Zhang Chi. Are you sure you won't accept the legacy?"
Chen Runyu: "......"
If you can't transfer, just say it directly. Why do you have to belittle Zhang Chi like that?
Chen Runyu is very unhappy and wishes to refuse this legacy.
However, she is not a willful person and naturally knows how important this secret realm and legacy are.
If she can obtain it, she will naturally have the ability to share Zhang Chi's pressure, no longer being protected like before.
"Since that's the case, then I'll accept it!"
Chen Runyu is somewhat reluctant, not even knowing how to handle the spirit of the Dragon Ball.
I am the Dragon Ball, the Dragon Ball that guarantees a true dragon!
Being treated so poorly, this is the first time.
"Accepting the legacy means accepting the mission. When you have achieved success in your cultivation, you must retrieve the contaminated dragon horn and dragon scales. In this way, the path of Dragon Transformation will be easier."
"I understand."
Chen Runyu knows the whereabouts of the dragon scales, but she can't snatch them now.
After confirming her acceptance of the legacy, Chen Runyu stayed in the secret realm.
The Dragon Ball directly activated the legacy mode for her. The Dragon Race's legacy is extensive, including cultivation techniques, combat skills, and the collection and crafting of treasure materials. After all, they are an ancient race with a long legacy.
With so many things, it is impossible to explain them all in one sentence. The Dragon Ball uses direct imprinting, imprinting it into Chen Runyu's Divine Soul. The massive amount of information is not easy to absorb. Chen Runyu enters a state of deep sleep and begins to learn in her dreams.
And Chen Runyu has already made a wish, so the Dragon Ball will naturally help her fulfill it.
So, after Tang Ruoling returned home, she was swallowed by a monster created by the Mirage City and sent to the Mirage City, falling into a coma.
In her place, a unique projection of the Mirage Dragon Spell was left behind.
The transformation of water mist is the Mirage Dragon's ability.
Tang Ruoling became another living person in the secret realm and was imprisoned.
But Chen Runyu's wish was only to prevent Tang Ruoling from getting married, so she would only be imprisoned for a few days. During these days, Tang Ruoling remained in a coma.
Three days passed, and Chen Runyu finally accepted all the legacies. But as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Tang Ruoling lying unconscious beside her legs.
"What's going on again?"
"I can fulfill your three wishes. You said not to let her marry your Senior Brother, so I brought her here."
"How can this be done! I was just casually saying it!"
Chen Runyu was stunned and somewhat regretful. Fortunately, she was just casually saying it and didn't say anything malicious.
Otherwise, would Tang Ruoling still be alive?
Now she is lying here, causing a big trouble.
"Can you let her go?"
"When you can successfully control the secret realm, naturally you can let her go."
"When can I control the secret realm?"
"At the Divine Ability Realm."
"What!?"
Chen Runyu was speechless. She is only at the eighth level of Qi Condensation now.
It can be considered fortunate that she has the opportunity to experience hardships in the secret realm and have a rapid increase in cultivation after coming out. She is only at the seventh level now, and Foundation Building is still far away. When will she be able to reach the Divine Ability Realm?
"Don't worry, with the Dragon Ball, you can achieve a hundred times the speed of cultivation, and you don't have to worry about bottlenecks. At most, in two years, you can leave here."
"Two years!?"
Chen Runyu was shocked by the time, but suddenly reacted.
"I can't leave either?"
"Of course not. You can't open the secret realm, so naturally you can't leave.
But don't worry, this place is called Mirage City, a city of illusions. Everything you imagine can become reality here.
This place is the perfect place for seclusion. Aren't you happy?"
Chen Runyu: "......"
Happy my foot!
"We have both disappeared. What about Senior Brother?"
Chen Runyu indeed didn't want to see Zhang Chi marry Tang Ruoling, but it was just a moment of anger. She never wanted things to turn out like this.
"You said you can fulfill three of my wishes. I still have two more. I want you to send us away."
"That's not possible. I can only fulfill your urgent and necessary wishes. It is more advantageous for you in Mirage City, so I won't help you fulfill your wishes.
The hidden dragon lurks in the abyss. You are currently too weak and must lie low.
And I am not the owner of the secret realm. Before recognizing you as the master, I can still open the secret realm. After recognizing you as the master, Mirage City will be yours, and only you can open it."
Chen Runyu: "......"
Why are you so tricky!?
