The two vortexes in Lan Xuanyu’s body started spinning naturally. He could clearly feel his Spiritual Sea boiling, and the vortexes inside were spinning extremely violently.
It was also at this moment that a soft exclamation resounded in his Spiritual World. Lan Xuanyu realized that his Spiritual Sea had turned dark gold.
A figure silently appeared in the Spiritual Sea. It was the Beast God Di Tian, who had been asleep for many years.
“This is a Spiritual Projection, it’s truly lifelike! I can feel their auras again.” A bitter smile appeared on the Beast God’s face. He floated above Lan Xuanyu’s Spiritual Sea and looked into the distance. His eyes flickered as though he was deep in thought and at the same time, he seemed lost.
“Senior Di Tian?” Lan Xuanyu focused his mind and manifested his own figure in his Spiritual Sea.
The Beast God Di Tian turned to look at him with a faint smile on his face. “Master, we should be at the Tang Sect’s place, right? The spiritual auras here should have been simulated by the Tang Sect’s ancestors. It is extremely beneficial for stabilizing one’s Spiritual Sea and even I have benefited from it.”
Lan Xuanyu: “You’re finally awake, I almost forgot about your existence.”
The Beast God Di Tian could naturally hear the dissatisfaction in his tone. He smiled and said, “My Lord, don’t worry. Although I have been in a deep slumber, I would have definitely appeared to help you if you really encountered a life-threatening crisis. Di Tian’s deep sleep is beneficial to my Lord as well. It can help you suppress your Spiritual Sea when it becomes unstable. At the very least, it won’t be a problem before you break through to god rank. When you broke through to four-ring previously, I sensed it. The biggest problem you face during your breakthrough is the problem between the two different bloodlines. The Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King bloodlines are in conflict. Whether it is in terms of energy essence or spiritually, they are total opposites, just like light and darkness.”
“Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King bloodline?” Lan Xuanyu exclaimed.
The Beast God Di Tian replied, “That’s right. Otherwise, where does your Dragon God Transformation and Dragon God bloodline come from? It is because you possess the Golden and Silver Dragon King bloodlines that you have that mutation.”
Lan Xuanyu was stunned. “Isn’t my Martial Soul the Blue Silver Grass? Can a Blue Silver Grass mutate into the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King bloodlines ?”
The Beast God Di Tian was silent for a moment before he said slowly, “There are some things that are fated by the heavens. Why do you have such a bloodline? You can only find it yourself in the future. You should have already felt the benefits brought to you by these two bloodlines, but also the difficulties.”
Lan Xuanyu nodded his head. Back then, when he just started cultivating, he had encountered a huge problem. If not for Teacher Nana’s help, he would have died.
After that, for every breakthrough, he would encounter a difficult bottleneck. Not only was it much harder to cultivate his soul power than his comrades, but it was even harder to break through.
“This is because these two bloodlines reject each other. Your cultivation process is simply the process of merging the two bloodlines. And during this merging process, they will definitely clash and reject each other because they are independent entities. The only thing you can be thankful for is that they only have you as the sole will. This is the foundation of unity. Otherwise, the final result would be either one devouring the other or both parties getting injured.”
Lan Xuanyu furrowed his brows. “Why is it like this? I’ve experienced some scenes from the past where the Dragon God once commanded the dragons to fight and failed. According to you, the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King should be a part of the Dragon God, so why are they rejecting each other?”
Di Tian said, “This is because they represent the Dragon God’s different abilities and mental state. The Dragon God was the strongest God to have ever existed. Before humans began to ascend to godhood in the Divine Realm, the Divine Realm was also ruled by us dragons. The Dragon God was in charge of creation and life, kindness and evil. He was in charge of everything in the Divine Realm. At that time, he was incomparably strong. But it was also because of this that the Dragon God often had problems. Whether it was life or destruction, kindness or evil, they were the complete opposite. Hence, he had to act as different existences at different times, which caused the Dragon God’s strong consciousness to be divided to a certain extent.”
“This feeling isn’t pleasant at all. The Dragon God would often be in pain, and at that time, he would even kill other Divine Beasts. Every time he woke up, he would be in extreme pain. After that, the human gods rose up and started to gain a foothold in the Divine Realm. Their growth and development were very fast. The human God King of that generation was known as the Asura God. He led the humans to become stronger, gradually forming a Divine Realm that belonged to him. The two great Divine Realms were like two different races fighting against each other. In the end, they still collided and became stronger for each other.”
“At that time, the human gods could not defeat us no matter what. It was just that the Dragon God had another problem with his mental state and suddenly became berserk in the crucial battle. Not only did he not kill the strong enemies, but he also killed a large number of our Divine Beasts. That battle caused the sky to darken. In the end, the Dragon God, who had calmed down from his berserk state, was already extremely weak. He was killed by the Asura God. I still remember clearly that at that time, the Asura God once said to the Dragon God, ‘Let me end your pain and let everything start anew.’“
“At that time, I didn’t understand what he meant. It wasn’t until later that the Dragon God that was killed and split into the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King that I know of. The Silver Dragon King inherited the aura of kindness and life while the Golden Dragon King inherited destruction and evil. The Dragon God was killed and split into four God Seats that were inherited by humans. Together with the Asura God, they became the five God Kings and governed the Divine Realm together. However, they no longer allowed us beasts to cultivate and become gods. They sealed our path to the Divine Realm.”
“The Silver Dragon King was exiled as an opportunity to live given by the Asura God while the Golden Dragon King was sealed in the Divine World, sealing the berserk part of the Dragon God that was once violent.”
The Beast God Di Tian was narrating an ancient legend that caused Lan Xuanyu to be fascinated. “But are the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King bloodlines in my body the same as theirs?”
“It’s different,” Di Tian said in a low voice. “Because you’re not the Golden Dragon King or the Silver Dragon King, you only have their bloodline inheritance. You’re just like the Dragon God that has yet to unify these two forces. If you can truly unify them in the future, you’ll be the new Dragon God.”
Lan Xuanyu said, “Then will I face the problem of the Dragon God and have my consciousness split into two ?”
Di Tian: “This is what I want to tell you. You won’t.”
Lan Xuanyu was stunned. “Why?”
Di Tian then said, “The Dragon God in the past had to absorb the four God Kings’ Seats of Kindness, Evilness, Life, and Destruction in order to properly control the Divine Realm after becoming a God. It was because of this that he began to change subtly. The two bloodlines that you have naturally also carry such an aura, but you are after all a generation apart and not the same person as before. Everything that you have is starting from scratch. So, in the process of your advancement, it is the opposite of what he did back then. Every time you upgrade and merge the two bloodlines, you are actually eliminating the remaining aura of these four God Seats. That is why it is so difficult for you to advance. So, if you can cultivate to become a Dragon God, you will be able to return to the time when the Dragon God did not absorb the four God Seats and was just the Dragon God. Only such a Dragon God can lead to the revival of us Divine Beasts. Divine Beats want to be truly independent, not like now by subordinating to humans. That is the reason why I chose you. You represent the soul beasts’ future, and I can even say as far as all beasts type existences across all planes !
