Chapter 28: The Immortal Herb eight-petaled immortal orchid, Little Gold, Help You Breakthrough to the Hundred Thousand Year Mark!
Yu Jingcheng rode on Iron Head's neck, carrying Dugu Bo and Dugu Xin as they headed towards the territory of the Golden Earth Dragon Clan.
"A Hundred Thousand Year Golden Earth Dragon King..."
The corner of Yu Jingcheng's mouth lifted slightly.
No one understood the combat power of a Hundred Thousand Year Golden Earth Dragon King better than him.
Back when Yu Jingcheng had first transmigrated, in order to test the limits of this body.
On a whim, he barged into the Lake of Life.
The Sky Azure Bull Python, Da Ming, hailed as the forest overlord, and the Titan Giant Ape, Er Ming, with his immense strength.
Those two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts joined forces, yet he had rubbed their faces in the dirt!
The Golden Earth Dragon Clan was originally the pinnacle of defense and strength among the sub-dragon species.
Coupled with the Soul enhancement brought by his Transmigration, and his precise control over skills, those two brothers were simply no match for him.
Yu Jingcheng had possessed a Domain back then.
[Light Domain]
Both the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape possessed Domains.
He, a Hundred Thousand Year Golden Earth Dragon King, having a Domain, was perfectly reasonable, right?
(The value of a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast in Douluo 1 was still quite high, but it became lackluster later on.)
'If I hadn't been in a hurry to go set things up in Sunset Forest back then.'
'I'm afraid the Lake of Life would have long since changed its surname to 'Yu'. What would those two little beasts have to do with it then?'
Yu Jingcheng had even considered directly leading the entire Golden Earth Dragon Clan to migrate over and occupy that feng shui treasure land.
But it's not too late now.
Once his strength recovers, or Little Gold breaks through to the hundred thousand year mark, the right to speak in the Star Dou Great Forest would eventually be reclaimed.
As for the Vicious Beasts like Di Tian beneath the Lake of Life?
Yu Jingcheng wasn't worried in the slightest.
After all, when the original Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape were surrounded and killed, hanging by a thread, Di Tian and the other Vicious Beasts hadn't even let out a single peep.
Thinking of this, Yu Jingcheng turned his head to look at Dugu Bo and Dugu Xin.
"Old Poison, since the trouble is resolved, it's time we discuss serious matters."
Yu Jingcheng pointed at the giant dragon beneath his feet and said with a laugh:
"You are now only one Soul Ring away from being promoted to a Titled Douluo."
"But this Ninth Soul Ring is crucial. It would be a real shame to just make do with any random Soul Beast."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo let out a bitter laugh:
"The Sect Master speaks truly.
It's just that high-aged Soul Beasts, especially ones suitable for this old man's poison attribute, are truly hard to come by.
As long as it doesn't conflict with this old man's poison attribute, even a ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast would suffice."
Many Titled Douluos' Ninth Soul Rings were only seventy or eighty thousand years old.
A ninety-thousand-year ninth ring configuration.
In this era, it wasn't considered high, but it certainly wasn't low either.
"No need for such trouble."
Yu Jingcheng waved his hand, his tone as casual as if he were talking about going to the market to buy groceries:
"I know there's a Poison Flood Dragon in the Star Dou Great Forest, over ninety thousand years old, whose combat power rivals that of a 93rd rank Titled Douluo."
"After we go to the Golden Earth Dragon Clan territory, I'll ask the current Golden Earth Dragon Clan Chief to take us to hunt that Poison Flood Dragon."
Yu Jingcheng's original plan.
Was merely to take Dugu Bo to find a slightly weaker ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast.
And rely on Dugu Bo's poison to slowly wear it down to death.
Although he knew about that Poison Flood Dragon, he hadn't dared to entertain any wild ideas about it.
But now, since the Golden Earth Dragon Clan still listened to him, things were much simpler!
Hearing this, the eyes of Dugu Bo and his son Dugu Xin instantly widened, their breathing becoming rapid.
Having a group of Golden Earth Dragons help with the hunt?
This treatment... was practically an emperor-level luxury!
"Sect Master... are you serious?"
Dugu Bo's voice trembled slightly.
"When have I ever spoken empty words?"
Yu Jingcheng gave a faint smile and gently patted the Iron Head beneath him.
"Iron Head, lead the way!
Back to the clan grounds!"
"ROAR——!"
Iron Head let out an excited roar towards the sky, his dragon wings flapping mightily, leaving behind an afterimage.
...
Half an hour later.
"We're here."
Following Yu Jingcheng's command, Iron Head slowly descended into a massive valley.
The moment they landed.
"ROAR!
ROAR!
ROAR!"
Overlapping dragon roars erupted from all directions.
Dugu Bo and Dugu Xin's expressions changed drastically. They stood back-to-back, their Martial Souls instantly manifesting, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
From the cliffs and caves surrounding the valley, one enormous Golden Earth Dragon after another emerged.
Looking around, there were easily over a hundred!
Among them, twenty or thirty were of the ten-thousand-year level. The terrifying pressure they collectively emitted made Dugu Bo feel suffocated.
"This... this is the foundation of the Golden Earth Dragon Clan?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Dugu Bo's forehead.
If these giant dragons swarmed them, forget him being a Soul Douluo, even a Titled Douluo who came here would meet their end!
However, the next moment, a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life occurred.
These originally ferocious-looking giant dragons, upon seeing Yu Jingcheng, the fierce light in their eyes instantly dissipated.
Replacing it was a nearly fanatical affection and... reverence!
They lowered their proud heads one after another, prostrating themselves on the ground, emitting low whimpers towards Yu Jingcheng's direction, as if welcoming their king!
"This..."
Dugu Bo was completely dumbfounded.
If controlling a single Iron Head could still be explained before.
Then this scene of over a hundred giant dragons collectively submitting utterly overturned his worldview.
Even if Yu Jingcheng had lived here for a few years.
It was impossible for these Golden Earth Dragons to recognize him as their master, right?
Just at that moment.
RUMBLE——!
The earth suddenly shook violently.
An aura several times more terrifying than all the Soul Beasts present erupted from the deepest part of the valley.
That aura was so powerful it even caused a brief stagnation in the Soul Power within Dugu Bo's body.
"A... a ninety-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon?"
Dugu Bo exclaimed in shock, his face turning as pale as paper.
A behemoth, dozens of meters long, its entire body covered in scales that seemed forged from pure gold, emerged with heavy steps.
With each step it took, it left a deep footprint in the ground.
Its pair of golden vertical pupils flickered with intelligent light, supremely majestic.
It was precisely the current acting Clan Chief of the Golden Earth Dragon Clan, also Yu Jingcheng's own younger brother—Little Gold!
Ninety-seven thousand years of cultivation!
Only a single step away from the hundred thousand year mark!
Seeing this colossal beast, Dugu Bo and Dugu Xin almost instinctively wanted to flee.
This was a super Soul Beast nearing the hundred thousand year mark!
However, Yu Jingcheng smiled.
He leaped down from Iron Head's back and walked straight towards that terrifying beast.
"Sect Master!
Be careful!"
Dugu Xin instinctively shouted in terror.
But the next second, his voice caught in his throat.
That supremely majestic Golden Earth Dragon King, upon seeing Yu Jingcheng, actually revealed human-like excitement and grievance in its huge eyes.
It rushed quickly to Yu Jingcheng, but did not attack.
Instead, like a big dog seeing its owner, it lowered its massive head and gently nudged Yu Jingcheng's chest with its scale-covered nose.
Whimpering coquettishly from its mouth.
Yu Jingcheng reached out, embracing the huge dragon head, a trace of softness flashing in his eyes.
Little Gold had recognized him.
"Long time no see, Little Gold."
Yu Jingcheng silently said in his heart.
On the surface, he turned his head and explained to the already petrified Dugu Bo and his son:
"Don't be afraid. This is the current Clan Chief of the Golden Earth Dragon Clan."
"It recognizes me."
After Dugu Bo regained his composure, he suddenly understood.
"Sect Master, your Martial Soul is the Light Holy Dragon, and Golden Earth Dragons possess Light Holy Dragon Bloodline."
"Their submission to your Bloodline is perfectly reasonable!"
He really knows how to fill in the blanks!
Yu Jingcheng took out a jade box.
The Immortal Herb, eight-petaled immortal orchid!
"Little Gold, this is your big brother's gift to you."
Yu Jingcheng transmitted his voice through his Soul, stuffing the Immortal Herb into Little Gold's mouth.
"Eat it, and Breakthrough to the hundred thousand year mark!"
"From now on, we brothers will call the shots in this Star Dou Great Forest!"
