Chapter 104 Mountain Dragon
"That’s it? Nothing at all..."
Jiang Li’er looked around, about to complain, but the words got stuck in her throat.
Her eyes widened as she stared intently at the"tall, barren mountain"in front of her.
Then, the mountain... moved.
First, loose rocks and dust fell from the surface of the mountain , and then the entire mountain slowly"stood up"!
That wasn’t a mountain at all, but a dragon of unimaginable size!
Its limbs are like pillars supporting the sky, and every step it takes makes the earth tremble. Its horns are curved like spirals and have a metallic dark gold luster in the sunlight. Its tail is like a giant hammer, and its casual swing can cause the mountains to shake.
What’s most unsettling are those pale purple dragon eyes.
Majestic , weathered, as if bearing witness to countless ages.
A mountain dragon?!
it stands fully upright , it is over 100 meters tall and a terrifying 300 meters long! Just standing there quietly gives people a sense of overwhelming pressure.
An old, deep voice, like one coming from the depths of the earth, resounded.
"What brings you here to find me?"
The sound waves vibrated in the air , carrying a substantial pressure.
Suppressing his shock, Jiang Bai stepped forward and bowed respectfully:"Junior Jiang Bai greets Senior Mountain Dragon. We have come here to enter the Dragon Clan’s resting place, Dragon Valley."
The Mountain Dragon King’s pale purple dragon eyes stared intently at Jiang Bai, his gaze sweeping over his body with an almost tangible intensity:"Dragon Valley is the resting place of my dragon race. What do you, a human, intend to do?"
His tone was calm, yet it conveyed an undeniable authority.
The ice dragon stepped forward and spoke in human language:"We want to go in!"
The Mountain Dragon King turned his gaze to the Ice Dragon and the Fire Dragon, carefully sensing them for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed in surprise:"You two juniors... actually possess the inheritances of the Fire Dragon King and the Ice Dragon King?"
It could clearly sense that the two little dragons possessed pure dragon king blood. Although they were not yet fully awakened, the noble aura emanating from their very origin was unmistakable.
The Mountain Dragon King remained silent for a moment, seemingly weighing his options, before finally saying slowly,"If it were the two of you , I could take you to Dragon Valley. But this human... no."
Jiang Bai frowned:"Why?"
Mountain Dragon King:"You lack the aura of a dragon, so the entrance to Dragon Valley will not open for you. This is a rule established by His Majesty the Dragon God: those who are not of the dragon race are not permitted to enter the Land of Rest."
Jiang Bai’s heart stirred, and he looked at the ice dragon and the fire dragon.
The two dragons instantly understood his meaning and transformed into two streams of light, entering Jiang Bai’s body.
Possession!
Boom—!
A powerful dragon’s might erupted from Jiang Bai!
Crimson and ice-blue light intertwined, his left half was covered with crimson dragon scales, and his right half was covered with ice-blue dragon scales, with the faint phantoms of fire dragons and ice dragons appearing behind him.
The dual-attribute dragon power surged within his body, instantly transforming the aura he exuded into something ancient, majestic, and pure!
That was the aura of a true dragon, fused with the bloodlines of the Ice and Fire Dragon King!
Mountain Dragon King:"..."
A clear look of astonishment flashed in the pale purple dragon’s eyes.
It has lived for countless years and has seen human soul masters gain dragon-like abilities through soul rings and soul bones, but it has never seen anyone do this.
Jiang Li’er then leaned over and asked,"What about me?"
"you?"
The Mountain Dragon King looked at her, his gaze slightly narrowed, and after a moment, he suddenly realized:"You... you are the Imperial Auspicious Beast?"
It can sense the unique aura of destiny emanating from the other party. Although it conceals this aura after transforming, its essence remains the same.
Jiang Li’er nodded.
The Mountain Dragon King gave the two a deep look, a complex expression flashing in his eyes. A royal beast, and a human with the blood of the Dragon King ...
This combination... is really... peculiar?
After a long pause, he slowly nodded:"Come with me."
The Mountain Dragon King turned around and strode heavily into the depths of the valley.
Each step caused the ground to tremble and rocks to tumble down. Jiang Bai and Jiang Li’er followed in its enormous shadow as if they were following a moving mountain.
Upon reaching the deepest part of the valley , before a smooth, mirror-like black rock wall, the Mountain Dragon King stopped.
It let out a low roar, and a surge of soul power suddenly erupted from its body!
A white halo rippled out from its body, and then, complex and beautiful light patterns appeared on the rock wall.
Those ancient and mysterious light patterns spread outwards, quickly expanding to a diameter of 100 meters.
light , a mist rose and grew stronger, and a faint dragon’s roar began to echo in the air.
"hold head high--!!!"
The Mountain Dragon King let out a roar that resounded through the sky, the sound waves and light patterns resonating together!
The white light patterns on the ground fluctuated violently, and the light changed from white to seven colors, suddenly transforming into a seven-colored light pillar with a diameter of 100 meters that shot into the sky!
"Boom!"
The black rock wall in front of them melted like ice and snow in the beam of light, tearing open a huge gap.
Inside the gap, colorful light swirls , forming a stable spatial portal.
Through the portal, one can vaguely see the scene on the other side.
It was a desolate, tragic, yet sacred place, with countless enormous dragon bones on the ground, dragon scales and bones covering the earth, and towering dragon bone mountain ranges...
Dragon Valley, the resting place of the dragons!
The Mountain Dragon King withdrew his power, and the seven-colored pillar of light slowly receded, but the spatial portal had already stabilized.
It turned around, its pale purple dragon eyes looking at Jiang Bai and Jiang Li’er, its voice low and deep.
"This is Dragon Valley. You... go."
It paused, then added:"Remember, Dragon Valley is a place of rest; do not disturb the peace of the dead. If you have any requests, do so with reverence."
Jiang Bai bowed respectfully:"This junior will remember."
He took Jiang Li’er’s hand, the two looked at each other, and together they stepped towards the colorful, flowing spatial portal.
The colorful stream of light swallowed their figures.
Then, the two felt a sudden darkness before their eyes, followed by a dizzying spin. Everything around them became blurry, as if space itself was distorted.
Jiang Li’er subconsciously tightened her grip on Jiang Bai’s hand.
The pulling force lasted for a short time, then suddenly, the darkness disappeared and the light reappeared.
Then the feeling of weightlessness came over me.
Due to the rules of the Dragon Valley Small World, the two were unable to use their soul power.
But Jiang Li’er didn’t know that she tried to use her soul power several times, but it seemed that a special energy was affecting her, and all the soul power in her body was dormant and suppressed so that she could not exert any power at all.
Jiang Li’er panicked a little,"Jiang Bai, what do we do! Are we going to fall to our deaths?!"
"I’m still so young, there are so many delicious foods and fun things I haven’t experienced yet!"
dragon and fire dragon within Jiang Bai’s body were also"driven back into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."He can now only rely on his relatively strong physical body.
He hugged Jiang Li’er tightly and looked down, where he saw a huge dragon skeleton.
"Hold on tight , you’re unlikely to fall to your death."
Jiang Li’er hugged Jiang Bai tightly.
Jiang Bai calculated the time, and just as he was about to pass through the dragon skeleton, he reached out and quickly grabbed a huge rib.
The impact made Jiang Bai feel a tingling sensation in his arm, and his fingers were still sliding.
He looked down and saw that it wasn’t particularly high off the ground. He made up his mind and let go.
Upon landing, Jiang Bai only felt a slight bump on his back, but otherwise, there was nothing seriously wrong.
Jiang Li’er was protected in his arms, and with her two soft balls cushioning her fall, she was mostly unharmed.
"Alright, we’ve landed. How are you? Are you alright?"Jiang Bai asked.
Jiang Li’er opened her eyes, looked at Jiang Bai who was so close to her, her face slightly flushed,"N- nothing..."
After saying that, he pushed himself up by placing his hands on his chest and reached out to help Jiang Bai up. And then looked around.
There is vegetation growing around , but it is not lush.
...
outside world.
Bi Ji, who was secretly following the two, was completely bewildered.
No way, you two just went in just like that?!
What if they encounter danger inside?
