Lin Xia's pupils contracted to the extreme. It felt as if an invisible hand had gripped his heart tightly, suffocating his breath!
He abruptly stood up, staring fixedly at the newly appeared dragon-shaped mark on Larvitar's body, his mind roaring in shock!
This was definitely not a simple decoration!
This was an imprint from the depths of its bloodline!
It was the "qualification" bestowed upon Larvitar by the Dragon Graveyard—something more fundamental and essential than any enhancement of energy!
At the very moment the dragon-shaped mark was fully formed, Larvitar, just as it completed its final stomping movement—suddenly trembled violently!
"Larvi—!!!"
It let out a sharp cry—not of pain, but of extreme astonishment and overwhelming joy!
Its dance came to an abrupt halt. Its small body froze in place, as if locked by an invisible force, maintaining its stomping posture.
But its crimson eyes were no longer fixed on the sand beneath it.
Instead, they stared straight ahead, toward a certain direction.
To the northwest, deeper into the desert, where a vast stretch of towering dunes lay like frozen golden waves!
The next moment, as if struck by immense excitement, Larvitar suddenly turned around. Its short legs burst with astonishing speed as it tumbled and scrambled toward Lin Xia's feet. Grabbing onto his pant leg tightly with its tiny claws, its entire body trembled with excitement!
"Larvitar!!!"
It lifted its small head, its crimson eyes wide and round, filled with indescribable excitement and urgency. Its speech was rapid like popping beans as it frantically pointed toward the northwest, then repeatedly patted the dark-gold dragon mark that had just appeared on its chest.
It seemed to be using every ounce of its being to convey a shocking message to Lin Xia!
For a moment, Lin Xia was stunned by Larvitar's sudden outburst of joy and excitement.
But then a thought that made even his soul tremble struck him like lightning, cutting through the fog in his mind!
He immediately crouched down, firmly holding the wildly excited Larvitar with both hands. His voice trembled slightly from extreme tension and anticipation, each word forced out from his throat:
"Larvitar are you saying that you can sense the location of the Dragon Graveyard?! Through this mark?!"
"Larvitar!"
Larvitar nodded vigorously, letting out an extremely firm cry!
Its small claw once again urgently pointed toward the northwest.
Lin Xia's heart felt like it had been struck by a heavy hammer. An immense surge of joy erupted like magma, almost overwhelming him!
But he forcibly suppressed the shout that nearly escaped his lips. Taking a deep breath, he spoke again, his voice filled with deeper inquiry and a trace of disbelief:
"Then is its location fixed? Or is it moving?"
Hearing this, Larvitar tilted its head slightly. A thoughtful glint flashed in its crimson eyes.
It closed its eyes again, as if carefully sensing the mysterious connection transmitted by the dragon mark on its chest.
After a few seconds, it opened its eyes, shook its head, then nodded. With its small claw, it traced an irregular, crooked path in the air, then made a "floating" gesture while making "whoosh… whoosh…" sounds to mimic movement.
Finally, it firmly pointed toward the northwest again, though the direction seemed to have shifted slightly compared to before.
In an instant, Lin Xia clearly understood.
The location was not fixed!
It was moving!
Slowly irregularly shifting!
Like a ghost drifting deep beneath the desert!
But the mark could lock onto its current position!
And right now, it was in that direction!
"Moving constantly changing…"
Lin Xia murmured, yet the light in his eyes shone as brilliantly as the stars!
The immense disappointment and regret he had felt earlier were completely swept away at this moment, replaced by unparalleled excitement and exhilaration!
So what if Larvitar hadn't immediately gained world-shattering power?
So what if those dragon bones could only be used as materials for now?
This dragon-shaped mark capable of sensing and tracking the dynamic coordinates of the Dragon Graveyard at any time was the greatest and most priceless gain from this journey!
It was the true key to unlocking that forbidden treasure!
Larvitar had clearly realized this as well. Its previously disappointed expression—caused by "not getting to eat"—instantly blossomed into a wide grin. The corners of its mouth stretched nearly to its ears, and its crimson eyes sparkled with the ultimate excitement of a glutton who had just found an unlimited premium buffet pass!
Its little claws scratched excitedly at the ground with soft rustling sounds, as if it could already see countless divine dragon bones waving at it!
With this coordinate that could be checked at any time, the Dragon Graveyard was no longer an elusive legend, it had become its future food storage!
This was millions of times better than searching aimlessly!
However, Lin Xia's excitement went far beyond that!
His thoughts surged like wild horses, rushing straight toward the deepest part of the Dragon Graveyard toward that massive blood-scaled giant egg that had gently trembled amidst the endless remains of divine beings!
His heart pounded wildly in his chest, his blood surging like molten lava!
A bold, almost insane thought, yet filled with deadly temptation began to grow within him like creeping vines, wrapping around his mind until it transformed into a blazing fire of ambition!
Interception!
That's right, interception!
If… if, before that dragon egg hatched, while its consciousness was still in a primitive state…
If he, Lin Xia—guided by Larvitar, who possessed the Dragon Graveyard mark could find it, approach it, and even gain its initial recognition or establish some form of connection…
What would that mean?
It would mean gaining a partner with limitless potential, one destined to stand at the pinnacle of the world!
Risk?
Of course there was risk!
The dangers of the Dragon Graveyard, and the possible protective instincts or rejection from the giant egg itself, were all threats that could prove fatal.
But the opportunity was equally immense—enough to drive anyone with ambition into madness!
"Larvitar!"
Lin Xia's voice was slightly hoarse with excitement. He held the little one's face firmly in both hands, his dark golden eyes blazing with intense fire as he stared directly into its crimson gaze.
"Listen! This is important! The place where that 'big tasty thing' you sensed is moving—inside it there might be an even greater 'treasure'! Something far more valuable than all those bones combined—a giant 'egg'!"
"We have a chance to find it! Maybe even bring it out!"
Although Larvitar's understanding of an "egg" was probably limited to ordinary soul beast eggs, the idea of something "far more valuable than all those bones combined" instantly ignited it!
Its eyes lit up like two bright lanterns!
"Larvitar?! Larvitar Larvi Larvitar i!!!"
(An egg?! A super delicious egg?! Even better than those huge bones?!)
Its entire armored body rattled with excitement, its little claws waving enthusiastically as if it could already see that giant egg radiating supreme deliciousness!
Bring it out?
It had to bring it out!
And eat it!
Seeing Larvitar instantly fired up with boundless fighting spirit at the thought of a "super delicious egg," Lin Xia knew, their goals were aligned.
He took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the storm of emotions raging within him.
His gaze became incomparably sharp and focused.
