Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family Legacy

"Greetings, Sect Master Yu." Bei Bei bowed slightly. "May I ask why you have summoned this junior?"

"Just call me Uncle. This concerns the heritage of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family. As a direct descendant of our ancestor Yu Xiaogang, even though you do not bear the surname Yu, you are qualified to attempt it," Yu Yuanlong said.

"Heritage?" Bei Bei felt a flicker of doubt. He did not know much about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, nor was he aware of any such legacy.

"Yes," Yu Yuanlong explained. "Within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, there is a supreme heirloom known as the Nine True Dragon Crowns, formed from the bone fragments of an ancient Radiant Dragon King. Perhaps due to the great war ten thousand years ago, to this day, no Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon soul master has been able to earn its recognition."

So it is the Nine True Dragon Crowns. A glimmer of contemplation flashed in Bei Bei's eyes; he had read some information about them in the Shrek Academy Library Pavilion.

The Nine True Dragon Crowns were the clan's ultimate treasure. Their age could not be determined, and there were nine pieces in total. Except for the Snow Jade Crown, which was complete and could be absorbed as a soul bone, the other eight fragments corresponded to the limbs, torso, tail, and wings.

Only powerful dragon-type soul masters could absorb them. After absorbing the Snow Jade Crown, although it provided no soul bone skill, it could cause the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul to evolve, while significantly boosting the user's mental power, soul power, attributes, and the potency of their soul skills.

If one were to activate all nine of the Nine True Dragon Crowns, a soul master's soul ring age could be elevated to one hundred thousand years, but they would be backlashed by the crowns, consuming their flesh and blood until they withered away to death.

Yu Yuanlong, unaware of Bei Bei's thoughts, continued, "Mu En was the most likely candidate to obtain the Nine True Dragon Crowns, but by the time he was prepared to go to the ancestral heritage site, he had already obtained a head soul bone, and thus could not earn their recognition."

Bei Bei looked at Mu En, only to see the old man squinting his eyes, revealing no expression.

Yu Yuanlong continued, "According to ancestral records, if one obtains the Nine True Dragon Crowns and breaks through to the Title Douluo realm, one can unlock the secrets of these soul bone fragments to the greatest extent."

"Bei Bei, you are the most gifted soul master our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family has seen in ten thousand years, surpassing even Mu En. Are you willing to try?" Yu Yuanlong looked at Bei Bei, his gaze burning with anticipation.

"Very well." Bei Bei pondered for a moment. He felt that the Nine True Dragon Crowns must hold secrets that would bring him immense benefits. "I am willing to give it a try," he said slowly.

"Since you have decided, I will inform the Outer Court," Mu En said slowly.

"Elder Mu, I shall take Bei Bei to the heritage site now." Yu Yuanlong stood up slowly and bowed respectfully to him.

"Go." Mu En nodded in agreement.

After Yu Yuanlong took Bei Bei away from Shrek Academy, he transformed into a massive Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and flew toward a certain direction.

In his martial soul true form, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was gargantuan, covered in blue-purple scales and wreathed in arcs of blue lightning, exuding a formidable aura.

Yu Yuanlong's speed was immense, like a bolt of blue lightning, causing the surrounding vegetation to blur as they retreated rapidly.

Bei Bei stood within the dragon's claw, a barrier of soul power raised around him to block the howling gale.

"Uncle Yu, where is the heritage site?" Bei Bei asked.

"That is the territory of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family from ten thousand years ago: the Nine Dragon Mountains," Yu Yuanlong said slowly. "Although Martial Soul Hall slaughtered the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family ten thousand years ago and plundered all the resources there, they could not take the Nine True Dragon Crowns. This heirloom has remained buried there ever since."

Along the way, Yu Yuanlong shared many secrets of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family with Bei Bei.

Bei Bei gained a much deeper understanding of the family.

Yu Yuanlong was fast; after assuming his martial soul true form, a single beat of his dragon wings propelled him over a thousand meters in an instant.

Soon, Bei Bei saw nine lush, towering mountains ahead. The central peak pierced the clouds, surrounded and guarded by the eight lesser peaks.

"We have arrived. This is the heritage site of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, and our home from ten thousand years ago: the Nine Dragon Mountains." Yu Yuanlong's tone carried a hint of sorrow and grief.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family had once been so glorious, with over a thousand disciples, yet in a single night, they had all been reduced to dry bones.

Yu Yuanlong resumed his human form and brought Bei Bei to the foot of the Nine Dragon Mountains.

"The main peak of these Nine Dragon Mountains is called True Dragon Mountain. The eight lesser peaks are He Mountain, Gu Mountain, Teng Mountain, Ba Mountain, Dou Mountain, Lanfeng Mountain, Purple Lightning Mountain, and Nanwang Mountain. To venture deeper, one must enter through one of the lesser peaks."

"The Snow Jade Crown of the Nine True Dragon Crowns is sealed within True Dragon Mountain, while the remaining eight soul bone fragments are sealed within these eight mountains."

"The path ahead must be walked by you alone; I can no longer provide assistance," Yu Yuanlong said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Bei Bei nodded slowly and began to summon his martial soul: the Radiant Dragon King!

A white-gold scale emerged on Bei Bei's forehead, erupting with dazzling golden lightning that coursed across his body. The Ultimate Light attribute manifested as countless specks of light circling around him.

Four pitch-black soul rings rose from beneath his feet.

The aura belonging to the Dragon King rapidly spread out from his body.

As soon as the Radiant Dragon King martial soul appeared, a flash of fear and respect crossed Yu Yuanlong's eyes—a reverence stemming from the depths of his bloodline.

Even with his Title Douluo strength, as a dragon-type soul master, he was heavily suppressed when facing a dragon with a superior bloodline.

Yu Yuanlong felt that if he were to face Bei Bei, he might not even be able to exert half of his strength, and that was only because of the vast gap in their cultivation levels.

If they were of equal strength, Yu Yuanlong's power would be suppressed by at least ninety percent, leaving him utterly incapable of resistance.

Bei Bei utilized the Dust Light Step, his body transforming into a blur of light as he swiftly advanced toward the Nine Dragon Mountains.

The sky was thick with dark clouds, and bolts of lightning struck down from time to time.

Along the way, Bei Bei did not encounter any danger, but the place seemed to have been abandoned for ages, completely overgrown with dense vegetation, with not a single trace of human architecture to be seen.

If not for the faint, broken remains of ancient paths, Bei Bei would have thought he had arrived at an unremarkable mountain range.

As he ventured deeper, Bei Bei could feel a palpable sense of sorrow and unyielding resentment.

A faint golden light shimmered around Bei Bei, the purifying power of the Ultimate Light helping him dispel these influences.

"It seems to be the lingering resentment of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon disciples who died in battle ten thousand years ago," Bei Bei murmured.

Continuing forward, Bei Bei felt his martial soul react as if summoned.

Bei Bei slowly closed his eyes. In the darkness, nine points of light appeared in his mind; eight of them formed a circle, while the point in the center was the largest and most dazzling of all.
