Chapter Ten: Chaotic Desire Essence Transformation, Demon Born Beneath the Waterfall (Complete)

As emotion stirred in Yu's heart, Black Flood Dragon True Man stared fixedly at the talismanic scripture above her head without blinking.

The Eight Edicts of Shangqing for Summoning Dragons was said to have originated in antiquity, when a patriarch of the Mystic Sect overwhelmed the dragon race. Using the essence blood and souls of dragon kings from their clan, he reflected them upon the divine court and enlightened them into guardian dragon gods, thus creating this inherited treasure register. Within were the true names of many legendary dragon gods of the ancient age. It could command and summon dragon kings, call forth and destroy the Eight Poisons, and was one of Shangqing's Twenty-Four Treasure Registers. It was also an Innate Secret Treasure requiring no refinement, one of the rarest treasures beneath heaven.

This treasure register possessed a natural suppressive force against his cold flood dragon bloodline. As he looked upon its talismanic scripture, he saw only blood beneath that blazing golden light, churning his mind into chaos while stirring an irresistible greed within him.

Though he could not wield this treasure register, if he could extract the dragon kings' essence blood and souls within, or comprehend the lineage of the dragon gods' true names, it would be far more suitable than devouring Gui Yan's Yang God.
