Chapter 12304 Dragon’s Wrath

Ling Qingya said: "Yes, if you help me remove the poison, I will reward you well. It is not difficult to help you save a dragon."

"But you have to wait a little longer until the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony is over. This conference is very important to our Jiucang Academy, and I don't want any more accidents to happen."

Although with Ling Qingya's strength, there shouldn't be any danger in going to the Dragon God's Ancient Nest.

But she was always afraid of the worst, and she was also afraid of any accidents.

Therefore, she would wait until the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony was over before taking Ye Chen to the Dragon God's Ancient Nest.

She vaguely calculated that an accident might happen.

The unexpected situation does not come from outside, but the blood dragon may go berserk, and the situation will be difficult to control.

Ye Chen said: "Okay! Thank you, Master."

He thought to himself: "Blood Dragon, give me some time, I will rescue you!"

Ling Qingya hummed and said, "The Dragon God's Ancient Nest is very large. Let's first determine the exact location of the blood dragon."

She made a gesture and wanted to continue to deduce the divination.

But at this time, the Phantom Mirage Dragon seemed to have discovered someone was spying on it. It looked up at the sky vigilantly and let out a low, muffled roar.

Then, the Huanxiao Mirage Dragon opened its mouth and sprayed out a large cloud of white smoke, which once again obscured the scene of heaven.

"Pfft!"

Ling Qingya's face turned pale instantly, and she spat out a mouthful of strange blood with icy spots.

"Master, what happened? Did the Phantom Mirage Dragon hurt you?"

Ye Chen hurried over to support Ling Qingya, only to find that she was cold all over, with wisps of cold air constantly coming out from her head.

Ling Qingya gritted her teeth and said, "No, it's... the cold poison has taken effect."

"What's going on? I eliminated a lot of the cold poison a month ago, why is it suddenly coming back?"

"It's so cold..."

Her body trembled, and her breathing became disordered. She could no longer maintain the form of the Fantasy Star Compass. The Fantasy Star Compass, along with the Heavenly Secret Picture, completely disintegrated and turned back into a faint blue fragment. Then this fragment shattered with a click, using up all the spiritual energy and completely reduced to waste.

Ye Chen's face darkened. A month ago, he used the technique of fictitious memory to make Ling Qingya have the illusion that the residual poison had subsided, but in fact, it was just a fictitious illusion.

Now that her imagination was broken, the remaining cold poison surged in and her body could not bear it any more.

Boundless and biting cold emanated from her body, and Ye Chen felt like he was holding a soft ice sculpture.

Fortunately, Ye Chen at this moment has a Heavenly Fire Heart hidden in his Dantian. Coupled with his cultivation of the Nine Yang Divine Illuminating Sutra, he is able to resist Ling Qingya's cold and poisonous aura.

"Senior sister, hurry up, take Master back to her room. I will remove the poison from her immediately."

Ye Chen greeted Su Liyun who was standing aside.

Su Liyun responded hurriedly and walked closer, but was immediately forced back by the coldness from Ling Qingya.

"No, Junior Brother, Master's cold aura is too terrifying, I can't get close to him!"

Su Liyun said hurriedly, and was shocked to see Ye Chen holding Ling Qingya as if nothing had happened.

If it were her, she would have been frozen to death by this cold and poisonous breath.

Ye Chen's face darkened. He was helpless and didn't care about the difference between men and women. He picked up Ling Qingya and went back to the yard.

He and Ling Qingya had had many intimate contacts, but they were private situations after all, so he still needed to be cautious in front of others.

The situation was urgent at the moment, and Ye Chen didn't care about being cautious anymore. He carried Ling Qingya back to her boudoir.

"Hold me tight, Ye Chen..."

Ling Qingya was a little confused due to the attack of the cold poison, and her arms were tightly around Ye Chen's neck.

Ye Chen's heart was moved, and he felt that the other person was a goddess of beauty at this moment. Then he put Ling Qingya on the bed...

……

About half an hour later, Ling Qingya's condition improved a lot, but she still looked quite weak. She lay listlessly on the bed, her hair spread out like seaweed, and her ethereal eyes were like a deep sea of stars.

She looks so fragile. One look at her frail body makes one want to ride on her all the time.

Ye Chen swallowed inexplicably, turned his head to calm his inner thoughts, and said: "Master, you have a good rest." He turned and left the room.

After leaving the room, Ye Chen let out a breath of icy cold air. When he was detoxifying Ling Qingya just now, he absorbed a large amount of Ice Dragon Poison from her body.

This cold poison has been transformed into the primitive law of freezing by Ye Chen, used to strengthen the cultivation of the Ice Sky Dragon Spirit.

"My strength seems to have become stronger."

“But I still can’t catch the light.”

Ye Chen closed his eyes slightly and could clearly feel that he was on the other side of the sun and the moon, surrounded by divine light, but he could not grasp it at all and was never able to truly prove the truth of the sun and the moon.

However, Ye Chen was not panicked.

He could feel that he was not far from truly achieving enlightenment.

His accumulation is so profound that he has paved the way for slaying demons, and his path is extremely solid. He even inherited the bloodline of Mo Feitian.

Mo Feitian is a member of the starry sky god clan and also the chaotic demon. His bloodline is very special and has infinite potential. Once he grows up, he can burst out with tremendous power.

A day later, when Ye Chen went to see Ling Qingya again, she was in much better condition.

Ye Chen continued to detoxify her, using the simplest method of absorption to suck out the cold poison in her body.

After the poison was expelled, Ling Qingya's cheeks were flushed, and she looked a little ashamed and a little hot. She asked Ye Chen: "What is our relationship now?"

Upon hearing this explosive question, Ye Chen's scalp suddenly went numb and he really couldn't answer it for a moment.

Because of the relationship with the goddess of beauty, are he and Ling Qingya master and disciple or lovers?
"Well...anyway, it's a very good relationship."

Ye Chen nodded and smiled.

Ling Qingya said: "You are not allowed to abandon me as your master, or I will kill you!"

Ye Chen said: "Yes..."

Ling Qingya showed a melancholy expression and said, "My heart is uneasy. As the cold poison gradually dissipates, my cultivation has improved. I can see the past, present, and future, and all kinds of destiny more and more clearly."

"I am not the reincarnation of Queen Liuguang, but my birth seems to be related to Queen Liuguang."

"I might be the creation of Queen Liuguang. To be more precise, I might be a vessel she created. When she climbs out of the abyss in the future, she will have to possess me if she wants to be reborn. This is the fate of a vessel."

"I don't want to die. If anyone tries to take over my body, even if that person is a god, I will resist!"

"I want you to help me, I want you to stand on my side, you can't let me down, Ye Chen!"

She stared at Ye Chen with burning eyes. In the future, when she would fight against the gods and the Queen Yizu Liuguang, she would need Ye Chen's help.

Ye Chen's heart trembled, and he also thought of Queen Liuguang, who had hoped for his salvation and taught him the art of fictitious memory.

If Queen Liuguang and Ling Qingya confront each other and become enemies, whose side will he stand on?
"I won't let you down, Qingya."

Ye Chen didn't think too much. The beauty looked at him with burning eyes. How could he refuse?

He no longer called her Master, but called her by her name. He raised his hand and gently touched her hair. Then, their bodies pressed together and their lips touched.

This time, it was not to drive away the poison, but just out of pure attachment.

After a fierce struggle, the two separated slightly. Ling Qingya's face was flushed with drunkenness, and she whispered:
"The Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony is coming soon. You have to be careful. With your strength, as long as you are not targeted by others, it will be easy for you to win the championship."

Ye Chen said: "I know."

Ling Qingya hummed, and then said: "This time, the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony will be held at Lingxiao Peak as usual, and the rules are the same as before."

Ye Chen asked: "Lingxiao Peak?"

Ling Qingya said: "Yes, that is where the Red Sky Candle Dragon is imprisoned. The Red Sky Candle Dragon has an extremely strong vitality. After the dragon-slaying feast that year, it was the only one that survived and was imprisoned at Lingxiao Peak."

"Since then, Chixiao Zhulong has become a mine."

Ye Chen was startled and asked, "Mine? What does that mean?"

Ling Qingya smiled slightly and said, "That is to say, the blood of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon can be condensed into pieces of extremely high-quality dragon blood crystals. These dragon blood crystals are all first-class Dao crystals."

"We have people stationed inside the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon from the four major academies and the four major heavenly gates, digging for dragon blood crystals. After millions of years of mining, we have not hollowed out its body yet. You can imagine how terrifyingly tenacious the vitality of this Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon is."

"At the end of the First Era, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dried up, the myriad races were bleak, and resources were depleted. Thanks to this Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon, which provided a steady supply of dragon blood crystal minerals, the myriad races were able to survive the end of the world and usher in a new era."

Ye Chen was shocked and said, "Oh my god, is this Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon so terrifying?"

Ling Qingya said: "It is the leader of the seven great dragons. Its bloodline should be directly connected to the Yin-Yang Avenue of the End of Heaven. In other words, as long as the Avenue is not destroyed, it will not die. Its life force will continue to flow. The speed at which we drain its body may not be as fast as its speed of recovery and rebirth."

Ye Chen said: "Isn't that equivalent to having an endless treasure trove of resources?"

Ling Qingya said: "That's true, but the speed of mining is limited. The amount of blood crystal minerals that Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon can produce each year is about the same as that of several large mineral veins. It is far from the level of defying the heavens."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "I see."

Ling Qingya said: "The so-called Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony is divided into the preliminary round and the semi-final. The preliminary round requires you to enter the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon and dig out the dragon blood crystals. The time lasts for three days. After three days, the eight people with the most dragon blood crystals can advance to the semi-finals and compete for the title of champion."

"Of course, you can also snatch the Dragon Blood Crystal from others. Killing is not prohibited in the competition."

"However, only those at the Sun and Moon Realm and below can participate."

"After all, the contestants are all elites from the four major academies. The death of one of them is a huge loss to the academy. If someone from the Sun and Moon Realm dies, the strong men from the four major academies may be able to revive him."

"If someone like the Burning Lamp Realm dies, it will be difficult to resurrect them."

The higher the level of cultivation, the more troublesome it is to resurrect and the more resources it consumes.

Therefore, this Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony only allows warriors at the Sun and Moon Realm and below to participate. This way, even if someone dies, it will be easier to resurrect.

Ye Chen nodded and said, "I understand."

The rules of the conference are very simple. You go to Lingxiao Peak and enter the body of Chixiao Zhulong to mine in the preliminary round. The eight people who mine the most will advance to the semi-finals.

"We are mining in the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon. Will it feel uncomfortable?"

Ye Chen suddenly asked a question.

Ling Qingya said: "Of course it would be uncomfortable. If there were thousands of ants crawling into your body, gnawing and biting at your internal organs and blood vessels, would you feel uncomfortable?"

"But why do you care about it? We are human beings, and it is an evil dragon. It once wreaked havoc in the starry sky and brought destruction to countless people. Its death is not a pity."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm just asking casually."

Ling Qingya said: "Well, after the Xingtian Martial Arts Performance is over, I will take you to the Ancient Nest of the Dragon God. There are thousands of space cracks above Lingxiao Peak that lead to the Ancient Nest of the Dragon God."

When Ye Chen heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Can we get to the Dragon God's Ancient Nest from Lingxiao Peak?"

Ling Qingya said: "Yes, after the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon was sealed, it always wanted to return to the Dragon God Ancient Nest, or ask the descendants of the Dragon God Ancient Nest to save it."

“Although it was sealed, the strong blood fluctuations and resentment it emitted distorted the void and forcibly tore open cracks in the space.”

"But our four major academies and four major heavenly gates are all guarded by people, so it is impossible for the Dragon Nest tribe to save it."

"If outsiders want to go to the Dragon God's Ancient Nest, they must also obtain permission from the Four Heavenly Gates and the Four Colleges. The application procedures are very troublesome, but I can skip these cumbersome procedures and take you there directly."

Ye Chen was overjoyed and said, "Thank you very much, Qingya."

Then when the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony is over, Ye Chen can follow Ling Qingya to the Dragon God’s Ancient Nest and bring the blood dragon back.

Ling Qingya snorted and said, "No need to thank me, just don't forget our agreement."

"I'm warning you again, if you fail me, even if I die, I will kill you before I die!"

Ye Chen put his arm around her shoulders and said, "I know, why are you so fierce?"

Ling Qingya snorted again and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Anyway, you just need to continue to expel the poison for me. I have a feeling that something big might happen during this Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony."

"I must recover my strength as soon as possible to deal with any unexpected events."

"I suspect that the evil star Luohou will come and take over the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon."

Ye Chen was shocked and asked, "What?"

Ling Qingya said: "The Demon Star Luohou is the Soul Emperor, do you know?"

"This person is the incarnation of the Pillar God. Although his vitality is weak now, he still has the potential to rise again."

"I calculated that he might come and parasitize his soul on the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon in an attempt to take over his body."

"With his current strength, he will definitely fail in trying to seize the body of Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon. His soul will be devoured by the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon."

"However, his magic law will form a small demon seed that will permanently parasitize on the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon. Over time, the demon seed will grow stronger, and he can eventually be reborn by taking over the body of the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon and restore his peak strength."

"I can't let this happen."

Ye Chen said: "Emperor Hun Tian? In his current state, if he comes, wouldn't he be seeking death?"

Not to mention the many masters from the four major academies and the four major gates, even if it was just Ye Chen, he had the confidence to kill Emperor Hun Tian.

This is because Emperor Hun Tian is in too weak a state now. He has the authority of a Pillar God but cannot exert enough power.

Ling Qingya said: "In short, unexpected situations may happen, we must be careful."

Ye Chen said: "Yeah."

In the following time, Ye Chen continued to detoxify Ling Qingya. It took less than half a month to clear out the remaining poison from her, and her condition completely recovered to its peak.

This is also because Ye Chen’s cultivation has improved, and his ability to treat and expel poison has also improved.

After the poison was expelled, Ye Chen applied to pull out a Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, but was rejected by Ling Qingya. The reason was still the same, the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon was too sharp, Ye Chen had not yet reached the Sun and Moon Realm, and she was not at ease letting Ye Chen wield it.

The Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony is approaching, and she must prevent any possible accidents.

Ling Qingya also shared the secrets she had deduced with the four major academies and the four major gates. The top powerhouses in the academies and gates actually had a premonition that a storm was brewing and it was related to Emperor Hun Tian!
In fact, the truly terrifying one is not Emperor Hun Tian, but the Scarlet Candle Dragon!

Once Emperor Hun Tian transfers his soul to Chi Xiao Zhu Long, Chi Xiao Zhu Long will obtain a portion of the power of the Pillar God. It is very likely that he will undergo a transformation against the will of heaven, erupt with terrifying power, and break the seal.

If the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon were to break free from the seal, the disaster that would be caused would be unimaginable.

During the dragon-slaying feast that year, countless masters gathered on the other side of the starry sky to successfully suppress the seven divine dragons.

Today, there are numerous factions in the starry sky, and they are constantly fighting with each other. Where is the unity of the past?
In addition, many masters are not as strong as they were at their peak, so it is even more difficult to slay the dragon.

The four major academies and the four major gates were all prepared to prevent Emperor Hun Tian from causing trouble.

Time flies, and soon the day of the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony arrived.
