"Roar!"
In a range of endless mountains, a series of distant Dragon's Roars echoed from an Underground Cave.
The Underground Cave was filled with a thick chaos, almost solidified into liquid.
The cave beneath the Underground Cave was a dense network of interconnected tunnels, making it easy to get lost for those unfamiliar with the layout.
Following the correct tunnel, one could venture deeper and discover a spectacular sight: a Small World.
If not for the weakening of the barrier, this would be the most secret place, undiscovered by outsiders.
Within it, there was a crack, from which the Dragon's Roar emanated.
Peering through the crack, one could see swirling chaotic mist and radiant light. Just a single breath of the essence would add years to one's life.
Inside, on a cliff, there was a nest.
The nest wasn't very large, constructed of wooden materials, all built with Heavenly Jianmu.
There were three Dragon Eggs in the nest, covered with Dragon Markings, all over their shells.
Faintly, one could hear a Dragon's Roar, echoing through the nine heavens.
The three Dragon Eggs, their Dragon Markings resonating with each other, emitted Dragon Qi that was incredibly rich.
One of the Dragon Eggs had bright markings, its light flickering with each breath.
The other two, however, were lifeless, the luster on their shells quite dim.
"Sigh."
A sigh echoed from above the nest.
A dragon horn, shrouded in chaotic energy, stood above the dragon nest.
Faintly visible were traces of a great battle from long ago. The horn had once torn through the sky, and blood had rained down as it fought against a powerful enemy.
A phantom figure coalesced above the dragon horn, as if on the verge of dissipating.
The imposing figure, merely standing there, brought an invisible pressure to this small space.
Yet his gaze was filled with sorrow, fixed on the Dragon Egg within the nest.
"Damn Other Realm, they want to wipe out my lineage!"
His voice was thick with hatred and unwillingness.
"Crack!"
A sound of eggshell cracking rang out, and the majestic figure shifted its gaze to the egg.
"Roar!"
A juvenile Dragon's Roar came from the cracked Dragon Egg.
Bang, bang, bang! The cracked Dragon Egg was violently jumping, and the cracks gradually widened with each jump.
Crack! Along with a cracking sound, the eggshell completely split open, emitting dazzling golden light.
The extremely dense Dragon Qi instantly filled the entire Small World, and the Dragon's Roar echoed through the clouds.
The golden figure rolled in the chaotic mist, devouring the essence of the Dragon Lair.
His aura grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, instantly reaching the Void Path Realm.
The talent of a child of the Ten Evils was perfectly displayed, surpassing others from the moment of birth.
A shimmering pearl suddenly appeared above the golden dragon's head.
Seeing the pearl that suddenly appeared on his child's head, the imposing figure frowned.
In an instant, the Void Path Realm cultivation was suppressed to the Heavenly God realm under the pearl's light, then to the Saint Sacrifice… finally, under the surprised gaze of the figure, it was directly suppressed to the Blood Refining Realm.
That True Dragon figure knew that a starting cultivation base that was too high was not beneficial for the path ahead, so he didn't stop it. However, this suppression was harsh, directly down to Blood Refining.
It left him speechless.
Hmm!
The little True Dragon, who was still confused in the womb, also began to awaken, his eyes still filled with bewilderment.
A memory appeared in his mind, and he carefully reviewed it.
Long Xuan's face showed shock. This was actually the Perfect World, a world with an absurdly high danger level.
He, a person from a peaceful era, had suddenly arrived here, and he was completely bewildered.
But what the hell was a True Dragon Child? That True Dragon Child without the Ten Evils Treasure Techniques was actually him.
He wanted to cry!
Hmm? He was already in the Void Path Realm at the start? That was great! He could go to the newbie village and bully the weak.
Hey, hey, hey! Wait, ah! Don't attack!
Waaah! Blood Refining, a hellish environment, a hellish start.
Looking at the pearl above his head, Long Xuan was furious, considering his current cultivation!
Cough, cough!
Seeing the constantly changing expressions on his child's face, and worried that his mind might be damaged, the True Dragon couldn't help but cough, interrupting his wild thoughts.
"Ah, hey!"
Long Xuan followed the sound and looked at the blurry figure, startled.
He could feel a strong sense of care emanating from the figure's eyes.
Moreover, the connection between their bloodlines confirmed that this was his father.
He couldn't help but call out, "Father."
Hearing his child's call, the True Dragon's eyes welled up. To hear it before he disappeared, it was worth it.
"Child..."
A loving voice sounded, and the True Dragon looked at Long Xuan with concern, saying, "I have no regrets seeing your birth, and the True Dragon Treasure Technique has also been fortunately passed down.
It's a pity that your two younger siblings won't be able to be born."
Speaking of the two motionless Dragon Eggs, the True Dragon couldn't help but show sadness.
When Long Xuan heard the True Dragon's words, he instinctively explored his body and found that the Treasure Technique was complete.
Could it be that this pearl helped me complete it? After all, the original True Dragon Treasure Technique was incomplete.
He was overjoyed, as cultivation could be slowly improved, but the Treasure Technique couldn't be repaired.
However, the True Dragon's next words made him very sad.
His two younger siblings couldn't be born. Having understood the reason, Long Xuan couldn't help but grit his teeth, pretending not to know, and asked, "Father, why can't they be born?"
The True Dragon considered for a moment before saying, "Because of the enemies from the Other Realm.
It's unknown if you would even be able to be born, and even if you were, you might not have been able to inherit any Treasure Techniques.
But now, it's unexpected. I suppose it's because of this pearl.
Although your cultivation has been suppressed to the Blood Refining Realm, this is a chance to forge the strongest foundation.
I originally wanted to do the same, but I couldn't achieve this level."
Hearing his father's words, Long Xuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light; he would definitely sweep away the Other Realm in the future.
In this dangerous world, only a solid foundation could lead to the peak.
Wushi had such a high level of cultivation when he was born, but for what came afterward, he also cut away a portion of his cultivation.
And I'm even more thorough, I must make good use of this.
Seeing Long Xuan thinking, he didn't disturb him.
After some thought, Long Xuan said in a milky voice, "I understand, when the time comes, I will definitely sweep away the darkness!"
Hearing his son's words, the True Dragon was very pleased.
Looking at his body, which was about to dissipate, he left some of his remaining collections to him.
Long Xuan didn't stand on ceremony and directly received them into the Star Essence Pearl. Just now, Long Xuan had already briefly understood how to use it.
The space inside was vast and endless, perfect for storage.
The True Dragon wasn't surprised by this; he had seen a lot in his lifetime.
"Father, move that nest into my space as well. I don't want to leave them in this lonely place."
The True Dragon readily agreed to Long Xuan's suggestion, using its last bit of strength to move the dragon nest over.
Its already indistinct form began to dissipate. It looked at Long Xuan one last time and said, "Child, live on and strive forward.
This broken horn is left for you. I truly hope to see you sweep away the darkness someday!"
As the words fell, the True Dragon's figure completely vanished between heaven and earth.
Long Xuan's eyes were red, and he fought back his tears.
Roar! Long Xuan howled to the sky, venting his grief.
After a long time, looking at the empty Small World, he couldn't help but feel a little lonely. Now, he was all alone.
He resolutely left the place that had nurtured him, flying towards the exciting outside world.
Following the crack, he exited the cave. The first ray of sunlight of his life shone upon his golden dragon body, refracting a brilliant light.
The warm sunlight also dispelled some of the gloom, and Long Xuan stretched his body comfortably.
"Roar!"
He couldn't help but roar, as if declaring to the world, I have arrived!
Only upon the lake not far away did he see his own appearance. His entire body was covered with golden scales.
He was agile, with powerful dragon claws. With a swing of his tail, he could shatter rocky mountains.
Two dragon horns stood erect on his dragon head, and the dragon whiskers on both sides fluttered in the wind. His dragon eyes appeared somewhat immature.
Looking at his appearance, Long Xuan was also very satisfied, and he spoke, "Gold looks much better than red."
"Heh heh, world, I came, I saw, I conquered!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body moved, like a golden lightning bolt, rapidly disappearing into the distance.
