“That’s…” A hesitant expression appeared on Bai Xue’s face.
Chi Yu smiled. “Ms. Xu Xiaolan has been acknowledged by the Dragon Origin Star, which shows that she bears no ill will. Furthermore, An Lin has saved a large number of our brethren, so he is certainly a friend. As such, there should be no issue if we let them see it from afar…”
This was actually also the reason why they were willing to disclose so much information to An Lin and the others.
Bai Xue thought about this for a moment before nodding in agreement.
However, a thought suddenly occurred to An Lin. “Xiaolan, do you want to keep bathing in the hot spring? We can actually keep bathing here and go after that.”
Sheng Jin almost collapsed upon hearing this. “Please spare the Dragon Dao Pond! Look at the state it’s in! If you keep bathing in it, it’s going to be reduced to a useless pond…”
Xu Xiaolan chuckled. “Why so nervous? I won’t go in again! My dao of True Dragon has already been perfected, and there are no further improvements that can possibly be made to my bloodline. Hence, there’s no point in bathing in the Dragon Dao Pond anymore.”
All of the dragons heaved long sighs of relief upon hearing this.
Thus, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan went on a happy journey to view the Azure Dragon Heart Essence with the two guardian deities leading the way and Kun Gu and Sheng Jin in tow.
The two little azure dragons also followed along and were still stubbornly referring to An Lin and Xu Xiaolan as their parents. An Lin didn’t chase them away. It was actually quite a wonderful feeling to walk hand in hand with Xu Xiaolan while two babies called them father and mother.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan followed the two guardian deities and encountered many Dragon Tribe living beings along the way. They were initially only respectful toward the guardian deities, but they were now extending the same respect toward Xu Xiaolan, thereby clearly indicating that she had risen in the ranks in the Azure Dragon Tribe.
Soon, they flew out of the basin and into a vast expanse of land.
They passed through one terrifying lethal realm after another and continued deeper into the Dragon Origin Star.
In a place where colorful mist encompassed the entire heavens, lightning made up oceans, and a dragon ball hung in the sky in the place of the sun, An Lin saw an extremely spectacular building. The external shape of the building was that of a massive azure dragon hundreds of thousands of feet tall. It was extremely imposing and life-like, as if it were going to come alive and tear the heavens apart at any moment.
“The Azure Dragon Heart Essence is the dragon head of this building,” Bai Xue explained.
Immediately afterward, all of the True Dragons shrank their bodies to match the size of the two little azure dragons.
Bai Xue turned toward the massive building in the distance. “Guardian deity Bai Xue.”
Chi Yu: “Guardian deity Chi Yu.”
“Request entry into the Divine Azure Dragon Palace to see the Azure Dragon Heart Essence.”
The voices of the two True Dragons at the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage spread through the entire heaven and earth and had even drowned out the rumbling of the boundless sea of lightning.
Rumble…
Beneath the chin of the dragon-shaped building, a bronze gate slowly opened.
Bai Xue led the way into the building through the bronze gate.
An Lin could sense the little black dragon in his body was thrashing about even more vehemently, as if it was very excited and striving to come out.
“Sigh… You stupid dragon. You absorbed the power of the Dragon Dao Pond for an entire day and night and was still unable to come out. If you still can’t come out this time after approaching the Azure Dragon Heart Essence, then I can’t help you.” A resigned expression appeared on An Lin’s face.
The little black dragon seemed to be unable to hear An Lin and continued to thrash about in his sea of vital energy like an idiot.
The little black dragon had to be commended for its determination. An Lin regarded it with a detached aloofness, as if it wasn’t inside his sea of vital energy.
That wasn’t to say that An Lin was preventing it from coming out.
In reality, An Lin did want to get this black dragon out of there.
However, he didn’t know how to open up his sea of vital energy! This thing wasn’t like An Kirin, who he could communicate with. This thing was most likely an actual life form that had somehow managed to transfer itself to his sea of vital energy, where it was trapped…
An Lin also made his way into the building through the bronze gate with curiosity and anticipation in his heart. Hopefully, the Azure Dragon Heart Essence would provide some help for the little black dragon.
After entering the building, he was greeted by the sight of a palace with white dragon flames burning inside.
There was a small platform at the center of the palace upon which was sat a translucent white bead.
After entering the palace, the rumbling within his sea of vital energy intensified over ten times!
The little black dragon was crashing so violently against the invisible barrier that its head was bleeding, but it refused to give up.
Holy f*ck! Has this dragon gone crazy?!
An Lin’s expression shifted drastically, and right at this moment, a peculiar pain surged from his sea of vital energy.
“Ow ow ow…” An Lin gripped his lower abdomen and gritted his teeth.
Xu Xiaolan immediately held An Lin upright with a concerned expression on her face. “An Lin, are you alright? What happened?”
“Papa…”
“Daddy!”
“Are you alright?”
The little azure dragons and the other dragons also turned toward An Lin.
“I’m fine…” An Lin gripped his lower abdomen and spoke through gritted teeth with his brows tightly furrowed. “I’ve been having some digestive problems. I’ll be fine after I drink some hot water.”
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
All of the dragons: “…”
A powerful being with God of Creation Stage combat prowess was suffering from digestive problems? What a load of bullsh*t!
“Let’s hurry up and get to the Azure Dragon Heart Essence!” An Lin urged.
This was the first time he was experiencing pain from his sea of vital energy. It felt like his entire body was about to be torn apart.
At the same time, he finally sensed the thoughts the little black dragon was transmitting to him. It wanted to see the Azure Dragon Heart Essence so badly that it had been driven close to the point of insanity, which was why it was frantically crashing against An Lin’s sea of vital energy.
“Hurry, show me the Azure Dragon Heart Essence!” An Lin urged again.
The pain was only temporary. The little black dragon would settle down once it saw the Azure Dragon Heart Essence!
“Don’t worry, we’ll be there soon. Let’s get into Dragon Seeking Navigator first,” Bai Xue replied.
“Dr… Dragon Seeking Navigator?” An Lin turned to her with a quizzical expression.
Xu Xiaolan was stroking An Lin’s back and using her warm energy to try and alleviate An Lin’s pain, but this pain originated from within his body; external forces could do nothing to soothe it.
“The Dragon Seeking Navigator is a supreme system of our Azure Dragon Tribe, and it’s super awesome! Only through its navigation can we find the Azure Dragon Heart Essence!” Kun Gu puffed out his chest with pride at the mention of the Dragon Seeking Navigator.
“I don’t care! Can you please hurry up?”
An Lin panted heavily as cold sweat poured down his forehead.
Xu Xiaolan was quite concerned upon seeing this. “An Lin, I feel like I’ve seen the condition you’re in before.”
“Where have you seen something like this?” An Lin asked.
“In a pregnant woman suffering from dystocia,” Xu Xiaolan replied.
An Lin: “…”
“Dystocia?” The male azure dragon’s nostrils flared up from shock.
“Wow wow wow! Daddy is going to give birth!” The female azure dragon whooped with elation.
“Is it going to be a little brother or a little sister?” The female azure dragon approached An Lin with curiosity and anticipation on her face.
An Lin: “F*ck off!”
