Chapter 2086 (Raw 2191): Mysterious Totem
Right now, the alternating-black-and-white talisman script in Xiao Chen’s body was dim and looked like it would vanish soon.
Xiao Chen could not resist Soul Reaper at all.
If Soul Reaper wanted to kill Xiao Chen, he had no way of resisting it.
When the Black and White Eggs saw this scene from on top of the dilapidated palace, they said sullenly, “What is Bitchy Egg trying to do?”
Xiao Chen no longer had the energy to think. He could only leave it to fate.
No matter what, the golden-armored army had already withdrawn. Pushed back by the blood moon, the blazing sun in the sky had also moved away.
“Whoosh!”
Soul Reaper grabbed Xiao Chen and held him in its palm, using the Space Dao to make his body small enough to fit.
It’s over. Even though I did not die in the golden giant’s hands, I will still die in Soul Reaper’s hands.
Fate really toyed with people.
However, such a result was not too surprising. Both Soul Reaper and that blazing golden giant were dead and had limited intelligence. They only had a will driving them.
“Whoosh!”
Just as Xiao Chen succumbed to despair, Soul Reaper did not squish him to death. It only looked at him.
Soul Reaper’s face showed puzzlement and inquiry.
Xiao Chen immediately noticed the other party’s close attention. Then, his bloodline started circulating uncontrollably.
His Great Desolate Eon bloodline activated in the next moment, and his eyes immediately turned golden.
An ancient and mysterious Dragon Might burst out of his body. It was the Dragon Might of the leader of the Seven Colored Divine Dragons, the Azure Dragon.
Xiao Chen felt somewhat shocked. This was the first time an external force activated his bloodline.
Suddenly, Soul Reaper relaxed and gently put Xiao Chen down. Then, it placed a finger on his forehead.
The skin between his eyebrows instantly split, and blood seeped out.
Then, his Soul Energy and blood connected and formed a strange blood moon mark.
Before Xiao Chen could understand what was going on, he landed in front of the city gates.
When Xiao Chen turned his head back to look, he saw the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper placing its right hand on its left shoulder. It then assumed an unusual posture before turning around to pursue the remaining golden-armored figures and the blazing sun in the sky with the iron hook in its hand.
Feeling puzzled, Xiao Chen turned back and faced the city gates.
“Whoosh!”
The blood moon mark on his forehead immediately released some light. Xiao Chen felt that this mark was deeply connected to his soul and bloodline.
“Creak!” Before Xiao Chen’s surprised gaze, the ancient city gates opened.
The fallen bodies of the army of the dead could be seen everywhere. The remaining soldiers and Desolate Slaves followed Soul Reaper in launching a final attack to sweep up the golden-armored army.
They went to the edge of the land of the blood moon and killed the remaining golden-armored figures above the golden sea.
“I should go in and take a look.”
Xiao Chen did not know what happened. Perhaps the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper verified his Azure Dragon bloodline and opened the city gates for him.
This was a rare chance before Xiao Chen. If he delayed, the city gates might close.
Xiao Chen did not hesitate to head straight into the ancient Azure Dragon city. He wanted to know what was inside.
--
“Look! Egg Egg entered!”
Atop the palace, the Black and White Eggs felt incredibly shocked.
Back then, their master spent a lifetime trying to get into the Azure Dragon city. In the end, he died without succeeding. Now, Xiao Chen managed to enter despite being only a Small Perfection Sovereign Personage.
--
“Boom!”
Right after Xiao Chen entered the city, the city gates behind him shut tightly with a loud sound.
He glanced back, then ignored it to wander the ancient city.
The dragon city’s layout was mostly similar to the White Dragon City and Heavenly Dragon City that Xiao Chen had visited before.
However, this city was grand and imposing. There were many buildings in the Azure Dragon’s unique style, which the other dragon cities did not have.
As Xiao Chen walked around the city, he clearly felt an aged feeling everywhere.
He sank into deep thought. The dragon cities of the Divine Dragon Empire were all built on ancient Dragon Race Remnants.
This ancient Azure Dragon city’s accumulations were far vaster than White Dragon City’s and Heavenly Dragon City’s.
The place was empty and gloomy, appearing rather desolate. Aside from the dragon souls wandering in the sky, there were no other living beings in the city.
As Xiao Chen wandered around, he felt somewhat uncomfortable. If not for the Dragon Race bloodline in his body, he would not be able to walk through this city, with its vast accumulation and heavy Dragon Might.
“Chi! Chi!”
The blood moon mark flashed continuously on Xiao Chen’s forehead. Since entering the city, he had felt a mysterious existence endlessly calling out to him.
He gently leaped up and jumped onto the roof of a nearby building. Then, he looked into the distance.
After verifying the direction, he leaped about the dragon city’s buildings.
One hour passed before Xiao Chen came to a stop before a magnificent Dao Platform.
This ancient Dao Platform stood on top of a cliff, overlooking the entire ancient Azure Dragon city.
A Dao Platform!
This was an ancient artifact used for trans-realm travel, not something of the Martial Epoch.
The Dao Platform was the result of countless experts’ knowledge passed down for several epochs.
Xiao Chen had used a trans-realm transportation formation before and had seen Dao Platforms more than once. However, he had never seen such a vast Dao Platform before.
This sight deeply shocked him. If this Dao Platform could be activated, it could send an entire army’s worth of cultivators.
Not only that but if it was activated, one probably could be sent to any part of the Great Thousand Realms.
However, these were not the focus of Xiao Chen’s current thoughts but a wooden pillar on the platform.
This wooden pillar should be a piece of divine wood from a tree like the Propping Mulberry Tree. It stood on the Dao Platform like a stone pillar.
This pillar boasted superlative craftsmanship at the hands of a master sculptor.
This was a totem, an Azure Dragon Totem!
Xiao Chen had once left a similar Azure Dragon Totem in the Kunlun Realm’s Dragon’s Gate under the instruction of the old Dragon Horse.
Xiao Chen’s craftsmanship was like child’s play compared to this totem, making him ashamed to think about it.
The totem before Xiao Chen looked like a real Azure Dragon appearing before him.
While just a small part of it was exposed, it looked extraordinarily charming and graceful. Dragon Might blanketed every corner of the Dao Platform.
“Whoosh!”
Xiao Chen gently leaped onto the Dao Platform. Then, he went over to the totem.
After some thought, he reached out and touched it. Immediately, a strange feeling filled his heart and mind.
Xiao Chen felt like an azure ocean had appeared before him. As he stood at the shore and looked at the ocean, he felt very insignificant.
At this moment, the Soul Energy in his Soul Pool, the Veritable Essence Energy in his Primal Core, and the Vital Qi wandering his body gathered into a river flowing into the ocean.
Xiao Chen could not control all this. In mere moments, one-third of his Veritable Essence Energy, Vital Qi, and Soul Energy had drained.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Spots of light emerged on the surface of the ocean.
Vague scenes appeared within the spots of light. After close scrutiny, Xiao Chen noticed that they were cities.
When he saw the situation, he immediately understood. These spots of light represented the cities the Dao Platform connected to.
They all seemed to be the Divine Dragon Empire’s transportation nodes. They were either within the Divine Dragon Empire or the great realms that the Dragon Race controlled.
Aside from the cities, there were even special secret realms. Xiao Chen came upon the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s secret realm that represented the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s accumulations—the one that grew countless Spirit Herbs—among the secret realms.
He even vaguely saw his Divine Rank medicinal cauldron in that secret realm.
Aside from these, there were dim spots of light—the transportation nodes of the other empires or dynasties.
Xiao Chen understood. The totem drove the transportation formation of this Dao Platform.
However, it was somewhat difficult for Xiao Chen to drive the formation with his current strength. He could only look; even so, it was not very clear.
“Whoosh!”
After realizing this, Xiao Chen prepared to withdraw his hand. However, a vague Azure Dragon image appeared at the ends of this ocean at this moment.
The dragon image sharpened into a totem.
“This is…”
Xiao Chen’s expression changed wildly. This totem looked very blurry at the limit of this large ocean; he could only make out a vague silhouette.
However, with only one glance, he recognized it. This was the totem that he personally carved in the Kunlun Realm.
Could it be that this Dao Platform could send Xiao Chen back to the Kunlun Realm?
“Whoosh!”
Although Xiao Chen felt shocked, his Veritable Essence and Soul Energy were about to be drained. Thus, he had to let go.
The azure ocean disappeared, and the scene before him returned to normal.
“Rumble…!”
As Xiao Chen was feeling puzzled, the mountain range where the Dao Platform stood suddenly shook intensely.
All at once, an Azure Dragon statue appeared among the mountains, weaving between the mountains as though it had come to life.
Finally, it stopped at the top of this mountain, and two dragon eyes stared at Xiao Chen.
This statue seemed somewhat similar to the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s Heavenly Dragon statue but with more Spiritual Energy.
