Chapter 100: Chapter 71: Entering the Body
The True Dragon Remnant Soul, grasping the last vestiges of fate, transformed into the size of a small fish, continually darting back and forth within the bones, attempting to escape.
At this moment, the Fox Spirit also shrunk its form, disregarding the burning pain from the Golden Light. It transformed into a palm-sized figure, dashing into the True Dragon’s skeleton, resolutely chasing after the True Dragon’s Resentment, determined to capture it.
The True Dragon’s Resentment took advantage of its home-field advantage, weaving through the gaps between the bones, making it temporarily impossible for the Fox Spirit to catch.
Zhang Chen watched the chase between the Fox Spirit and the True Dragon’s Resentment, momentarily unsure of what to do. The True Dragon’s Resentment was akin to a spiritual energy object, completely untouchable by physical means. Most crucially, it seemed immune to the harm from Golden Light, ignoring Zhang Chen’s Golden Light as if it were nothing.
"I..." Zhang Chen looked at the chase amidst the Golden Light between the Fox Spirit and the True Dragon Obsession, momentarily at a loss on what to do. So, his eyes turned towards the black skill on the ground.
Seeing that he couldn’t get involved in capturing the True Dragon’s Resentment, he might as well first pick up that black skill; perhaps there might be unexpected rewards.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred in the scene. The soul of the Fox Spirit unexpectedly split in two, surrounding and blocking from all directions. The True Dragon’s Resentment was instantly alarmed, and its eyes filled with a frightened expression, brimming with spirituality. Although it was nearly caught by the Fox Spirit several times, it managed to escape in desperate situations, breaking free from the True Dragon Skeleton and charging into the outside world.
The True Dragon Obsession abandoned the True Dragon Skeleton and dashed into the outside world, catching the Fox Spirit off guard. It was known that at this time, the remnant soul and fate of the True Dragon were constantly attracted by the Earth Vein. Once it left the True Dragon Skeleton, it would be absorbed by the Earth Dragon Vein within moments, vanishing into the world, completing the Transformed Dragon and Walking Flood Dragon. But who knew this True Dragon’s Resentment would rather risk soul annihilation than let the Fox Spirit succeed?
Seeing the True Dragon Remnant Soul rush out of the skeleton, the Fox Spirit was dumbfounded, then recombined its spirits into one, attempting to rush out of the skeleton to give chase. But it was blocked by the Golden Light attached to the True Dragon Skeleton by Zhang Chen, its movement momentarily slowed. At that moment, Zhang Chen suddenly felt a slight movement in the Dragon Qi within him, and then, like boiling water, it began to boil as if resonating with something.
At this moment, the True Dragon Remnant Soul that had escaped the True Dragon’s body seemed to sense the resonance of the Dragon Qi within Zhang Chen. It abruptly turned around, rushing toward Zhang Chen. Before Zhang Chen could react, it directly entered Zhang Chen’s body, merging with the Dragon Qi within him.
In the instant the Dragon Soul entered the body, Zhang Chen’s Dragon Qi underwent an earth-shattering change, as if it had come alive in an instant. The entire Dragon Qi condensed into a physical form, turning into a small dragon the thickness of a chopstick, wandering within Zhang Chen’s Spiritual World.
The chopstick-thin little dragon was of a golden yellow color, its scales vividly lifelike, appearing as if it had come to life. Atop its head were a pair of Dragon Horns, with electric light swirling around them, seeming to follow a mist.
Its belly and five claws glistened with a cold light, streams of white mist revolving around it, appearing very mysterious.
Most importantly, there was a grain-sized white light flickering at the brow of that Golden Dragon. At that moment, Zhang Chen, mastering the Dragon Qi, instantly knew the origin of that white light: the True Dragon Destiny!
The sole True Dragon Destiny in Heaven and Earth!
Only those with a True Dragon Destiny could transform into a True Dragon; the rest, whether as Divine Dragons, Celestial Dragons, or Flood Dragons, were merely Pseudo Dragons.
"No!" The Fox Spirit’s soul rushed out from the True Dragon Skeleton, glaring fixedly at the True Dragon Remnant Soul that had merged into Zhang Chen’s body, eyes showing a trace of despair: "Give me back the True Dragon Destiny!"
A white-clad maiden charged straight at Zhang Chen with a furious expression.
The Light of the True God flickered, and Zhang Chen directly attached it to the long knife at his waist, then swung it at the Fox Spirit.
Facing the blade gleaming with Golden Light swung by Zhang Chen, the Fox Spirit’s soul immediately regained its composure, staring at Zhang Chen: "Give me back the True Dragon Destiny!"
"I’d like to give it back to you, but how do I do that?" Zhang Chen, holding the broadsword, watched the Fox Spirit warily, while he grasped the Fox Spirit’s body, prepared to absorb its blood at any moment.
Upon hearing this, the Fox Spirit was taken aback. Its eyes blankly stared at Zhang Chen, a hint of astonishment crossing its gaze. Then, ignoring Zhang Chen, it directly rushed to the True Dragon Skeleton. Zhang Chen watched as the Fox Spirit, using an unknown Technique, unexpectedly shrunk the True Dragon Skeleton. Before he could react, the True Dragon Skeleton had vanished without a trace.
Faced with the Fox Spirit’s actions, Zhang Chen did not intervene. That skeleton was too big; even if given to him, he couldn’t take it away.
"Kid, you may have the True Dragon Destiny but lack the True Dragon’s Qi and fate, like you humans say ’have a destiny without fortune’; even with the True Dragon Destiny, you will never have a chance to transform into a dragon. Why not give the True Dragon Destiny to me? Ancestor I can fulfill any condition you ask." The Fox Spirit’s eyes locked on Zhang Chen, its phoenix eyes gleaming with divine light: "Ancestor I am a possessor of the Possession realm, equivalent to a sixth-tier existence, a top-tier expert even among you humans. As long as you give me the True Dragon Destiny, Ancestor I can teach you limitless wealth and greatness!"
