Ao Meng had already roughly figured out why Xu Xiaolan was able to enter this restricted area, but he was completely unable to think of any reason that could have allowed An Lin to enter this place.
Ao Meng was completely and utterly dumbstruck.
Not only were all the Dragon Court cultivators completely stupefied, but his team members were also staring at him with blank expressions of shock.
Oh, right, An Lin himself was actually at a complete loss as well…
He was sure that he didn’t have a Dragon Tribe bloodline.
As for how he had made his way in here, it was all because he had tried to grab Tina, upon which he discovered that his hand was able to pass through the enchantment barrier… Seeing as the enchantment barrier didn’t reject him, then of course he was going to come in!
“Senior Ba Xia, I REALLY think there’s something wrong here!” There were tears welling up in Ao Meng’s eyes.
Ba Xia turned toward them with an amused smile. “Nothing is wrong here. And things are really getting interesting, hehe…”
“Senior Ba Xia, may I ask why I’m able to pass through the enchantment barrier? Could it be that I have a Dragon Tribe bloodline?” An Lin asked.
All of the Dragon Court cultivators: “…”
All of the Four Nine Immortal Sect cultivators: “…”
Everyone was completely astonished.
He didn’t f*cking know anything either?!
Ao Meng looked as if he had seen a ghost, and he clasped a hand tightly over his heart, which felt like it was about to give out at any moment.
Ba Xia turned toward him with a smile. “Think about what the name of this island is, then think about what the name of this mountain is. The inheritance you received is much more extraordinary than you could imagine. That’s all I have to say. Best of luck to you.”
All of the powerful beings from the Dragon Court were just as confused as ever.
However, the Four Nine Immortal Sect cultivators who were familiar with An Lin all had thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Heavenly Dragon Island, Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain, inheritance…
When they thought about it like that, all of the mysteries were suddenly unraveled.
An Lin was enlightened!
Heavenly Dragon Island was actually a joint term for the Heavenly Turtle Tribe and the Dragon Tribe.
And the Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain was actually the divine mountain for the Dragon Tribe and the Heavenly Turtle Tribe!
The inheritance An Lin had received was the most powerful inheritance Tian Chenji of the Heavenly Turtle Tribe had to offer…
Looking at it this way, perhaps the enchantment barrier granted entry to both Dragon Tribe and Heavenly Turtle Tribe successors! This was not just a Dragon Tribe restricted area, but also a Heavenly Turtle Tribe restricted area!
Thus, it made sense that the enchantment barrier wouldn’t reject An Lin as he was related to the Heavenly Turtle Tribe!
Did that mean that Xiaolan was half-dragon while he was half-turtle?
An Lin blinked, and his entire body suddenly shuddered.
“No!” An Lin yelled in despair.
If he had the bloodline of the Heavenly Turtle Tribe, then what if he grew a turtle shell one day?
That was terrifying just to think about!
Everyone was given a huge fright by An Lin’s spontaneous, heart-wrenching cry.
What was happening now?
“An Lin, are you alright?” Xu Xiaolan hurriedly laid a hand on An Lin’s arm.
An Lin’s face was deathly pale, and he shook his head with difficulty. “I… I’m fine…”
Xu Xiaolan’s brows furrowed. “You don’t look fine…”
“I really am fine. I just thought about something unrealistic.”
An Lin waved a hand and dispelled the train of thought.
He turned to Tina and Bryce, who were still waiting outside the enchantment barrier. “Wait for me outside and look after yourselves!”
“Alright! You be careful in there, Giant An Lin.”
Tina waved at him with a dainty smile on her face as she sat on one of Bryce’s tree branches.
Ao Meng turned to An Lin with a grave expression.
If it were just Xu Xiaolan and Xiao Ze here, then he wouldn’t really be overly concerned.
However, An Lin was a freak whose combat prowess rivaled that of a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure. Aside from Ao Xiaowu, there was no one around who could match him. Hence, the Dragon King was feeling a little nervous.
“Hmph! Let’s go.” Ao Meng decided that it would not be best to engage in a conflict with An Lin here, and they continued toward the summit of the mountain.
An Lin and the others trailed along behind them.
This was like having a Dragon Tribe mighty figure as a GPS, so they might as well take advantage of it.
The Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain had a flight restriction, so everyone was progressing on foot.
Along the way, there was lush greenery and vibrant flowers, creating beautiful scenery that seemed as if it had been taken straight from a painting.
“I feel like even breathing feels very comfortable here,” Xiao Ze said.
“I feel the same way.” Xu Xiaolan nodded.
“Me too,” An Lin chimed in.
Xu Xiaolan and Xiao Ze turned to An Lin with peculiar expressions on their faces.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” An Lin’s chest constricted.
Xu Xiaolan asked with a faint voice, “Are you really a turtle?”
“I only received a Heavenly Turtle Tribe inheritance!” An Lin clasped a hand over his chest as he corrected with a serious expression.
However, he was quite elated at the same time. “I didn’t think you would have been able to guess this as well.”
“Master, your green turtle shell is too eye-catching, so it’s easy to make the connection!” Xiao Ze landed a vicious blow on An Lin.
An Lin swore a vow there and then that he would never use the Evading Turtle Technique again!
There was a distance of around fifty kilometers away from here and the summit of the divine mountain.
Everyone unleashed spell techniques as they climbed up the mountain in order to get up there as quickly as possible.
Everyone soon reached the summit.
In contrast to the beautiful weather at the foot of the mountain, the summit was extremely cold with white snow stretching as far as the eyes could see, and there were still snowflakes fluttering in the air.
The summit appeared to have been manually flattened as it was very flat and smooth. There was a mighty dragon statue situated at the very center of the summit, and a dense of blue cherry blossoms flourished around it. The frosty wind blew past, and flower petals danced in the air, seemingly unleashing the power of frost in the process.
“Is that dragon the ancestor they’re paying their respects to?” An Lin looked up at the dragon.
From the outer appearance of the statue, it didn’t look like it was anything special.
This was just an ordinary azure dragon looking up at the sky with a proud and domineering expression on its face, as if it were the monarch of this world.
An Lin had seen far too many creatures like this, so he was already desensitized.
“That should be the Dragon Tribe ancestor…” Xu Xiaolan took a couple of steps forward with a scorching expression of yearning on her face.
“There’s no mistaking it! That must be our ancestor!” Xiao Ze’s breathing accelerated with excitement.
An Lin felt like the two people beside him were behaving a little strangely.
Xu Xiaolan and Xiao Ze both seemed to be quite reverent toward the statue. Was this a special feeling unique to Dragon Tribe cultivators?
He turned toward Ao Meng and his group.
He discovered that all of the Dragon Tribe powerful beings were also looking at the statue with scorching reverence in their eyes. Even Ao Xiaowu had put away her usual lazy expression in preference for one that was much more solemn.
“Is the statue really that extraordinary?” An Lin was a little surprised.
He suddenly recalled his connection with the Heavenly Turtle Tribe. Did that mean that he would feel scorching reverence toward a turtle statue?
“Gasp…”
With this in mind, An Lin drew a sharp intake of breath.
That would be way too terrifying!
He was the mighty Sword Immortal An Lin, the War God of the Heavenly Court! Did he have to pay his respects to a turtle?
No! He refused to accept this!
