RNP Chapter 830 True Dragon Egg! Red Hair, an Ominous Sign! Shattered Jade!
Chapter 830 True Dragon Egg! Red Hair, an Ominous Sign! Shattered Jade!
Seeing the Black Emperor grimacing in pain, Chu Yang said with a half-smile, "How about... you try again?"
Black King just howled there without saying a word.
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, then strode towards the giant egg.
Black Emperor's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, because he clearly saw that Chu Yang was standing on those strange snakes, yet his feet were not injured in the slightest.
Even with the power of an emperor by his side, this guy's physical body is only at the Dao Palace Secret Realm!
There is no mistake about this. Although the Black Emperor was certain that Chu Yang was not a reincarnation but a contemporary emperor, he was also absolutely certain that the other party's physical body and cultivation level were only at the Dao Palace Secret Realm.
As for where the Emperor's power came from and why this strange situation occurred, it couldn't figure it out.
However, when the Black Emperor followed the Great Emperor Wushi, he realized one thing...
That is because the methods of the Great Emperor are beyond comprehension and cannot be fathomed, especially those Great Emperors who are extremely brilliant and outstanding!
Having witnessed Chu Yang's Emperor-level abilities twice, the Black Emperor had already categorized him as exceptionally talented.
Chu Yang arrived in front of the giant egg, reached out and gently touched it, then seemed somewhat disinterested.
In a short while, the Black Emperor's foot injury had almost completely healed; his physical body was truly a treasure.
The patterns on its leather armor lit up, and it used the power of lightning to blast away the strange snakes, clearing a path, and then it also came over.
"What kind of creature's egg is this?" Even the Black Emperor couldn't figure out the origin of the egg, so he humbly asked for guidance.
Chu Yang glanced at him and said, "A true dragon egg."
Black King's eyes bulged instantly, and he nearly bit his tongue. "Nonsense! How could this possibly be a real dragon egg?!"
Chu Yang said calmly, "It's not surprising that a true dragon would be born from a place where the ten dragon veins converge."
"However, this is just a stillborn embryo. After this place becomes the Land of Fallen Dragons, it will no longer be able to nurture a true dragon..."
As he spoke, he pointed to the strange snakes and then said, "These snakes were born from the dead dragon's energy during the process of the true dragon egg turning into a stillborn fetus."
Hearing this, the Black Emperor also felt that it made a lot of sense, and immediately showed a pained expression, cursing and swearing:
"That immortal emperor of yesteryear was truly a bastard... what a waste of talent!"
"If a true dragon were to be conceived and tamed, it could potentially rival an emperor!"
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled. Putting aside whether the one who moved the mountain was the Undying Emperor or not, just considering this true dragon egg...
Even if the place where the ten dragon veins converge remains unchanged, there is only a sliver of a chance to give birth to a true dragon, and that chance is too slim to be true; it will most likely fail.
After thinking for a moment, Chu Yang waved his hand and put away the stillborn dragon egg. Even if it was stillborn, it was still a stillborn true dragon that was about to be born, and it might come in handy in the future.
Most importantly, the dragon egg was enveloped by such a large piece of immortal energy; the value of that immortal energy alone was immeasurable.
However, the Immortal Source was polluted by both the Death Dragon Qi and the Land of Fallen Dragons, and its quality was somewhat inferior due to the absorption of a lot of essence by the True Dragon Egg.
No matter what, it's still a genuine source of immortal energy!
"Chu Yang... tell me... who could have sealed the True Dragon Egg with Immortal Essence?" Black Emperor's tone was dry, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Why think so much?"
"Even the aura of the dead dragon and the land of the fallen dragon would take countless years to erode the immortal source."
"Moreover, even within the Immortal Source, the True Dragon Egg still became a stillborn embryo. From any perspective, the True Dragon Egg has existed for far too long..."
Chu Yang had one more thing he didn't say: he even suspected that the egg might have been preserved from the mythical era.
Of course, these are all just speculations, and there is no way to verify the specifics.
Black Emperor, unusually, did not haggle over the matter of the Immortal Source and suddenly fell silent, following Chu Yang back the way they came.
The man and the dog quickly returned to the surface and then entered another cave.
When Chu Yang enveloped the entire underground area with his divine sense, Lu discovered that all the caves had the same layout.
Furthermore, considering that the dragon egg was sealed by the immortal source, it was clearly a deliberate act, and it's not hard to guess that these caves were also created by humans.
However, only the cave containing the dragon egg contains that strange snake; the other six caves are devoid of any living creatures.
Of course, this does not mean there is no danger; on the contrary, the dangers in the other six caves are even more terrifying.
This time, the two did not fall into darkness. The Black Emperor was also quite puzzled. Chu Yang did not emit any light, but he was able to dispel the darkness in the cave and make the surroundings as bright as day.
In fact, this is an application of the fundamental law of light. Although the fundamental law of the universe does not exist in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, there is only the Great Dao.
However, by analogy, even if Chu Yang couldn't comprehend and manipulate the Great Dao through the laws, he could still at least do these small tricks.
Upon entering the first cave, one is enveloped in an eerie atmosphere. Although there is no murderous intent, it still makes one feel uneasy.
As soon as they entered the cave, Black King howled across his neck. Chu Yang turned around and saw that it had grown red fur. His eyes narrowed slightly.
Red Hair's fate unknown?
He gently raised his hand, and divine power surged forth, enveloping the Black Emperor.
The red fur on Black King's body stopped growing and then shrank back under his skin, as if it had never been there.
The big black dog breathed a long sigh of relief; he had seen this ominous red-haired creature in Purple Mountain.
The Celestial Master Yuan who broke into Purple Mountain back then transformed into a monster covered in red hair!
Chu Yang seemed to be deep in thought. The appearance of red hair in this cave was an ominous sign, and there were only two possibilities.
It's either related to a certain Celestial Master, who left something crucial here before encountering misfortune in their later years.
It's either related to the underworld!
The reason why Yuan Tianshi suffered an ominous curse due to "stealing the source" was that Duan De's second incarnation, the Underworld Emperor, caused some trouble when he established the Underworld.
Chu Yang put aside his thoughts and walked to the center of the cave. The cave was empty except for a few tufts of red hair in the center.
Despite the passage of countless years, these red-haired creatures remain unchanged, as if they were the immortal bodies of an ancient holy body.
The Black Emperor kept a safe distance, fearing he might be tainted by even the slightest bit of misfortune.
Chu Yang led it deeper and deeper, and soon they arrived at the second cave, which was the deepest part of this cave.
When the Black Emperor saw the scene inside the cave clearly, he almost turned around and ran away.
Red-haired monster!
A red-haired monster stood in the cave!
"He's dead..."
Chu Yang said something, and then walked directly to the red-haired monster.
Black King cautiously approached and saw that the red-haired monster was holding a stone the size of a watermelon.
Chu Yang had sensed the red-haired monster before the New Year, but at that time he thought it was a strange creature from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
After all, the Primordial Ancient Mine is closely related to the Underworld, so it's not surprising that red-haired monsters appear here.
But now it seems...
This could very well be a Celestial Master!
However, the object must have existed for an extremely long time, and this stone must be extraordinary, because even with Chu Yang's unparalleled soul will, he was unable to penetrate the stone's surface to see what it was.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation!
Chu Yang took the stone out of the red-haired corpse's arms and weighed it lightly; it wasn't heavy.
After putting away the stone, Chu Yang turned and left.
Black Emperor followed behind listlessly, suddenly losing interest in exploring the eerie mass grave.
Although following Chu Yang was like entering an empty field, and they didn't encounter any real threats, he felt like he was just there to make up the numbers, working for nothing!
Two trips in and two trips out, and I didn't get a single penny!
wrong!
To be precise... he actually did get a few red hairs...
The thought of Red Hair sent a shiver down Black Emperor's spine, his body trembling violently, as if he were afraid that Red Hair might still remain.
With Chu Yang protecting them now, it doesn't matter if they come into close contact with the red-haired monster.
But once separated from Chu Yang, if she still has that ominous red hair on her body, who knows what might happen?
In the end, Black Emperor followed Chu Yang into the third cave. This was entirely out of greed. He hadn't gotten anything yet and was unwilling to wait outside.
This time, a stone pillar stood in the center of the first cave, with a portrait hanging on it.
The painting depicts a middle-aged man, tall and imposing, with incredibly deep eyes.
Even just a portrait gives people a feeling of power that is almost invincible.
Chu Yang pointed at the portrait and asked Black Emperor, "Do you recognize the person in this portrait?"
This is part of the reason why he brought the Black Emperor with him. When Chu Yang used his divine sense to cover the ground earlier, he saw this portrait, but he did not recognize who the person in the portrait was.
"He looks familiar..." Black Emperor frowned, pondering for a long time before suddenly exclaiming in surprise, "It's him?!"
"Emperor Hengyu!"
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow slightly. A portrait of Emperor Hengyu?
This is not surprising, after all, Emperor Hengyu once fought against the entire Primordial Ancient Mine by himself, and in a place called Fallen Sun Ridge within the Primordial Ancient Mine, he used Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold to forge an imperial weapon, namely the Sun God Furnace.
If he had been here and left a portrait of himself, it would make perfect sense.
"How did Emperor Hengyu's portrait end up here?" Black Emperor wondered.
Although he knew about Emperor Hengyu's deeds, why would the other party leave his portrait here?
Chu Yang looked up into the depths of the cave and said softly, "It must be to suppress what's inside..."
Black Emperor shuddered, then took two steps back, saying firmly, "Chu Yang! I have no interest in the treasures inside. I'll wait for you here!"
Whatever could be suppressed by Emperor Hengyu with a portrait must be terrifying!
Moreover, why didn't Emperor Hengyu simply eliminate it completely back then, but instead left behind a portrait to suppress it?
These clues, when put together, give every reason to suspect that even Emperor Hengyu could not destroy the being deep within that cave!
"It's not as scary as you think..."
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, then stepped forward and ripped the portrait off the stone pillar before heading straight into the depths of the cave.
After thinking for a moment, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he turned to say, "Little Black, there's a good opportunity for you to get some luck here!"
"Are you sure you don't want to come in with me?"
A look of struggle and conflict flashed in the Black Emperor's eyes. It had finally made up its mind not to get involved in this mess, but now it was starting to waver.
After hesitating for a long time, it gritted its teeth, decided to trust Chu Yang's strength, and followed him.
Chu Yang's smile deepened as he led the Black Emperor deeper into the cave. Just as they were about to enter the second cave, he suddenly stopped.
Pointing to the cave entrance ahead, Chu Yang said softly, "Go by yourself!"
"Don't worry, with me here, even if there's an ancient emperor inside, he can't hurt you."
Black Emperor looked suspicious, his expression seeming to say...
"You'd be that kind?"
Seeing that Chu Yangzhen had no intention of going in with him and seemed completely uninterested in what was inside the cave, Black Emperor's heart began to stir.
It could also guess that Chu Yang's sudden change of behavior meant there must be a trap involved.
But at the same time, it also knew that Chu Yang would never harm it.
So after hesitating for a while, Black Emperor gritted his teeth and stepped into the cave.
The next moment, a howl filled with surprise and fear rang out, as if someone had stepped on its tail!
Chu Yang laughed and entered the cave as well.
In the center of the cave was a semi-transparent fluid, hazy and obscuring what lay within.
By gathering his true spiritual power, the semi-transparent fluid transformed into a woman in his eyes.
The woman was completely naked, and her appearance was almost identical to Chu Yang's, but her facial features were extremely soft, and her figure was curvaceous, making her a female version of him.
Turning to look at Black Emperor, the guy had a look of utter disdain on his face, as if he'd seen a ghost.
Without a doubt, it must have seen a big black female dog!
Chu Yang waved his hand, and divine power surged, directly blasting away the fluid and revealing the scene inside.
It was a piece of jade, only the size of a fingernail, seemingly a "fragment" from what was originally a whole piece of jade.
Chu Yang pointed to the broken jade and said softly, "I keep my word, it's yours!"
The Black Emperor still looked disgusted. He was somewhat unwilling to receive the treasure for the first time and stepped forward to place his claws on the broken jade.
The next moment, a crack suddenly appeared between its brows, and a divine eye slowly opened, directly taking the shattered jade into it!
This sudden change startled the Black Emperor; it hadn't expected that the shattered jade could react with its divine eye.
Chu Yang put away the portrait of Emperor Hengyu in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Emperor Hengyu left this portrait not to suppress, but to obstruct."
"This broken jade has a great connection with you, but if someone else mistakenly enters this place and obtains the broken jade, they will bring chaos to the world."
"I can't see its effect either; you'll have to experience it for yourself."
After saying that, Chu Yang turned and walked out of the cave, leaving the Black Emperor standing there, stunned and lost in thought.
Back on the surface, Chu Yang stood in the mass grave, looking down.
After he used his true spiritual power to completely suppress the land of the fallen dragon, there was no danger inside the cave, and the four people who acted alone each had their own opportunities.
Chu Yang sat cross-legged, took out his divine source, and began cultivating.
Although Chu Yang did not know the purpose of the broken jade that the Black Emperor obtained, he could guess its origin.
Hell!
That shattered jade is related to the underworld!
Or to be more precise, it's related to reincarnation...
The Black Emperor's past life was closely related to Duan De, so it was not surprising that this jade fragment, which was suspected to come from the underworld, could resonate with it.
The burial pit was eerily quiet; no one would imagine that in such a desolate place, someone could sit and cultivate with undivided attention… (End of Chapter)
