I picked up skill fragments in the demon world
#97 - Crystal Coffin
My own True Dragon destiny admitting defeat was no surprise to Zhang Chen.
The Yellow River's surge was fierce and rapid, but it had no impact on Zhang Chen. By the time the Yellow River had risen to his thighs, Zhang Chen had nimbly run to the shore.
At this time, the laborers working on the Yellow River channel also ran to the shore, discussing the rising river.
"It's very unusual for the Yellow River to suddenly gush water from underground," someone commented.
"Where did that water come from? There's a great drought across the land, where did the Yellow River get water?" someone asked, looking bewildered.
"That water didn't come from upstream, but directly from the riverbed," a laborer pointed out.
"From underground? How can water gushing from underground rise so fast?"
"This water is rising strangely!"
"Speaking of which, if the Yellow River floods the riverbed, does that mean we don't have to work?"
......
As the crowd discussed, Zhang Chen, mixed among them, raised his head to look at the dragon energy in the sky. He saw the dragon energy roaring, seemingly in a state of shock and anger, transforming into a dragon shape, constantly twisting and wandering, stirring up the water vapor between heaven and earth, and creating a great fog.
At this time, the officers responsible for monitoring the Yellow River also ran to the river, their eyes showing a hint of horror as they looked at the suddenly rising water.
"How could this happen?" A group of government officials looked at the flowing river, stunned and somewhat clueless.
Just as everyone was talking, they suddenly saw the Yellow River's water flow begin to recede. The water level dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just thirty or so breaths, the rushing Yellow River water disappeared completely, and even the silt in the riverbed became dry and hard.
It was as if water had been poured into the desert, and the water flowed directly down, leaving not a single drop.
Such a spectacle left the supervising officers dumbfounded and the laborers on both banks shocked.
After a long time, the officer came back to his senses first, and the whip in his hand was swung in the air, sending out a crisp crack: "The water of the Yellow River has receded. If there are no abnormalities after an hour, everyone get down to work."
The laborers heard the words and felt resentment. After all, they didn't know when the Yellow River would rise again, but in the face of the powerful officers, they didn't dare to resist.
At this time, Zhang Chen raised his head to look at the dragon energy in the sky, but saw that the restless dragon energy had gradually calmed down, and the fog in the sky was gradually dissipating under the scorching sun.
Zhang Chen stood on the shore, pondering in his heart: "First of all, it is effective to lure with my True Dragon destiny. Secondly, I need to find a safe time, in case the water rises too fast and drowns the laborers, that would be my sin."
He was still kind after all. A laborer represents a family, and if they were drowned, it would be a fatal blow to a family.
Looking at the receding water of the Yellow River, Zhang Chen thought, urging the True Dragon destiny in his body once again. Then he saw the ten-mile riverbed vibrate slightly, the soil and dust flying up thirty centimeters, and then he saw the water of the Yellow River squeezing out from under the riverbed again.
Since he had already started, of course he would continue to do it, constantly fishing the other party out of the tomb.
"The other party is anxious! The other party has begun to transform into a dragon, gathering vast water energy. If it can't attract the True Dragon destiny, I'm afraid the pressure will become greater and greater, and eventually be overwhelmed by the vast water energy between heaven and earth. Now that it has sensed the aura of the True Dragon destiny, of course it wants to seize the True Dragon destiny at all costs."
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen's mouth curled up in a smug smile: "I have the light of the True God shrouding my soul. The True Dragon destiny is in my soul, shrouded by the light of the True God. Even if he is the supreme True Dragon, he can't detect the True Dragon destiny's aura that is obscured by the light of the True God."
Looking at the Yellow River water that suddenly surged out again, the laborers clearly saw how the Yellow River water was emerging. For a time, they were all stunned, marveling at the power of the Yellow River.
As the Yellow River water rose, the True Dragon destiny in his body shrank back again, now entrenched in his body, quietly sensing the outside atmosphere.
"What happened? Why is the Yellow River water changing?" Just as Zhang Chen was looking at the rising Yellow River water, the Fox Fairy Nannan turned into a wisp of green smoke and came to Zhang Chen, obviously the Yellow River's rise had made the Fox Fairy aware of the strangeness.
Since things had come to this, Zhang Chen no longer concealed it: "I think the source of the dragon transformation is under the Yellow River water, but I can't find the specific location of the tomb, so I directly used the True Dragon destiny to see if I can 'fish' out the source."
Zhang Chen said it lightly, but the Fox Fairy Nannan's pupils shrank: "What did you say? The source of the dragon transformation is here? Are you saying that the dragon seed of the dragon transformation is buried under the riverbed of the Yellow River?"
The Fox Fairy Nannan's breathing began to quicken, her eyes filled with light, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
Happiness came too suddenly!
"Look at this phenomenon, and my True Dragon destiny induction, there can be no mistake." Zhang Chen looked at the Fox Fairy Nannan, his eyes showing a probing taste:
"Do you think if I fish out the dragon seed, will I have a chance to seize his luck? And then I transform into a True Dragon myself?"
Hearing this, the Fox Fairy Nannan looked at Zhang Chen, her bright eyes becoming brighter and brighter, and her voice trembled with excitement: "Meeting you is the worst luck he could have! He is dead!"
"He is just a dragon seed now, he hasn't had time to transform yet. Your soul-hooking chain is specifically designed to restrain souls. If you can pull his soul out at the critical moment of his transformation, so that his body and soul cannot merge at the critical moment, he can't even transform into a pseudo-dragon. At that time, the backlash of water will be severely damaged. He can only exert the strength of ordinary third or fourth rank. With your kid's ability, can't you take him down?" Speaking of this, the fox spirit's eyes suddenly became soft and charming, and she leaned forward to look at Zhang Chen, her voice delicate: "Master, if you get the benefits, you must not forget the benefits of the little fox. If you can share a piece of the pie with me, the little fox will definitely repay your kindness by working like a cow or a horse in the future."
Looking at the fox spirit, Zhang Chen didn't expect that this fox spirit's ability to read the wind was so high. In order to obtain the True Dragon fortune, she didn't even want her face, and directly called him master.
While speaking, the fox spirit actually walked directly to Zhang Chen's side, massaging Zhang Chen's shoulders. The soft and boneless fingers pressed on Zhang Chen's body, making Zhang Chen feel very comfortable.
There seemed to be a unique fragrance on the fox spirit's body behind him, like the fragrance of jasmine, which was refreshing.
"Of course I can't absorb all the fortune of a dragon. If you are obedient in the future, it doesn't matter if I share some with you." Zhang Chen said unhurriedly.
The fox spirit said with some emotion, "It's a pity. If we could have allowed that flood dragon to fully transform into a true dragon before killing it, the benefits for us would have been greatest. Its dragon blood could extend our lifespan by hundreds of years, its dragon meat could strengthen our bones and cleanse our marrow, washing away the Yin energy from our souls, allowing cultivators to more quickly step into the Yang God realm, especially for Yin Gods, it would be a great tonic."
"If it transforms into a true dragon, evolving into a twelfth-order mystic, then it won't be us 'eating' it, but rather it gobbling us up in one bite, filling its belly with us as nourishment," Zhang Chen said, not being greedy. "One must know how to be content."
"But have you considered that three Jiazi is the limit of all beings? In one hundred and eighty years, even if you cultivate into a twelfth-order god, you will still die. If you obtain true dragon blood now to extend your life by hundreds of years, then you will truly be a carefree immortal," the fox spirit said.
"I feel that I have the destiny of a true dragon, and in the future, I may have the opportunity to transform into a true dragon, and perhaps then I can extend my life," Zhang Chen said.
"The fortune that can be grasped in my hands is the fortune that belongs to me," Zhang Chen muttered.
He mainly wanted to upgrade his Blood Control Technique. He always felt that the Blood Control Technique was of great importance, and as long as he upgraded the Blood Control Technique, there would definitely be incredible surprises waiting for him in the future.
"It would be best to have the other party transform halfway, and then I go and seize control of them, so that I can maximize the benefits," Zhang Chen muttered.
"But there is one thing I must warn you, if you want to take action, you need to act quickly, I am afraid the imperial court will be alarmed by this matter, after all, this world is not lacking in capable people and strange individuals," the fox spirit's eyes were filled with seriousness, and even the fingers pinching Zhang Chen's back involuntarily increased their strength.
Zhang Chen's expression became solemn upon hearing this, of course he knew the importance of the matter.
It's just a pity that his own true dragon destiny is too cowardly, and it immediately retreats back into his divine soul at the slightest disturbance, fearing being swallowed by that dragon seed, forcing Zhang Chen to stop for a while before enticing the dragon seed.
The Yellow River's water surged, but as the true dragon destiny lost its aura, the Yellow River's water seeped back down again.
Seeing this, Zhang Chen had to forcibly urge the dragon energy again, and then he saw the Yellow River's water begin to emerge again.
The supervisor in charge of guarding the area looked helpless and could only tell everyone to rest, after all, the Yellow River had flooded, and they couldn't force the people to go into the water to die, lest they force the laborers to rebel.
Once a rebellion occurred, that would be a huge matter, and every official present would have their heads cut off.
Zhang Chen's eyes were now flowing with golden light, his eyes fixed on the Yellow River, a trace of caution revealed in his eyes, his Dharma Eyes were always open, observing the movements of the Yellow River's surface.
At this time, the dragon energy between heaven and earth was becoming more and more violent, and a thick fog had rolled up, making it impossible to see people three to five meters away.
"Crack~"
At a certain moment, a thunderbolt suddenly fell, exploding on the Yellow River's surface, and a torrential rain began to fall from the sky.
In Zhang Chen's Dharma Eyes, along with the falling thunder, an object surrounded by dragon energy slowly floated up from the water. As the object floated on the surface of the water, Zhang Chen wanted to continue to use dragon energy to entice it, to lure it to the shore, but the dragon energy in his body shrank back, no matter how he urged it, it would no longer come out.
"Crap!" Zhang Chen cursed his own dragon energy, but he could only give up urging the true dragon destiny, his eyes flashing with golden light, staring intently at the object in the river.
The object floated in the water, Zhang Chen couldn't see its specific shape, only that the object had thick dragon energy, which directly connected to the dragon's tail.
"That is... that is..." Fox Fairy Nannan saw the object floating on the water, her voice filled with excitement, her throat was a little hoarse, and she couldn't even speak.
"Could it be a species that has obtained the aura and is about to transform into a dragon?" Zhang Chen asked.
Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Fox Fairy Nannan nodded desperately, "That's right! It's that dragon-transforming species!"
"What is the strength of that object now?" Zhang Chen asked.
"Can't see through its details!" The fox spirit carefully observed for a while and shook her head.
"Let's go into the water to take a look." Zhang Chen looked at the coffin and wanted to go directly into the water, but was stopped by the fox spirit, "No!"
"Why?" Zhang Chen was puzzled.
"The other party has obtained the aura and already possesses some of the power of a true dragon, at least the strength of a ninth-order Yang God. At this time, the other party's strength is at its peak, and we are not even enough to fill its teeth. Only when it transforms into a dragon and travels the Jiao, once the dragon transformation fails, it will inevitably suffer backlash, and then its strength will fall to the third or fourth order, which will be the best time for you and me to beat a drowning dog," Fox Fairy Nannan quickly pulled Zhang Chen back.
Zhang Chen stopped upon hearing this, his eyes now looking at the object floating in the Yellow River, countless thoughts flowing through his mind.
At this moment, the torrential rain in the sky stopped, and the Yellow River's water actually seeped down as if it had encountered a desert, and the coffin continued to float in the yellow sand and silt with the decrease of the water flow, rising and falling, flickering back and forth, as if it could drill back into the Yellow River's silt at any time.
"That object didn't notice that the true dragon destiny was about to run away!" Zhang Chen couldn't sit still at this time.
"Don't be impatient! Don't you think that object's movements are a little strange?" Fox Fairy Nannan said at this time.
"Strange? What's strange about it?" Zhang Chen asked in confusion.
"I suspect that the other party already knows that you are teasing it, after all, you used the true dragon destiny intermittently to play with it before, it is impossible for the other party to be unaware. It is now looming, as if it could disappear at any time, I think it is fishing for you," Fox Fairy Nannan said with a serious expression.
Zhang Chen's pupils shrank upon hearing this, cold sweat broke out on his back, and then he stood on the shore without moving, quietly observing the changes of the object in the river.
After only thirty or so breaths, the Yellow River's water veins dried up again, and even the clouds in the sky dissipated, and a huge sun peeked out from the clouds, shining on the Yellow River's riverbed.
It's just that this riverbed is different from the past, there is an object flashing with crystal light on the riverbed.
The object is half buried in the mud and half exposed.
"Crystal coffin! That's a crystal coffin! I heard people say that when King Pingbian was buried in the past, he used crystal as a coffin! The one transforming into a dragon is King Pingbian, Zhang Shicheng!" The fox spirit whispered in Zhang Chen's ear, her voice full of shock.
"Treasure! A treasure has appeared in the Yellow River!" At this time, a villager on the shore shouted when he saw the crystal coffin, his voice full of excitement, and he rushed down directly.
Facing the treasure, he didn't even care about life or death!
