Dragon God Inheritance

"Do you two want to go to Spirit Hall?"

Chen Ye's voice was very calm.

Hearing Chen Ye's words, both Xiao Wu and Tang San froze for a moment.

Tang San abruptly raised his eyes and stared fixedly at Chen Ye, his gaze carrying a trace of hope and longing.

He truly wanted to join Spirit Hall.

Spirit Hall's academy far surpassed this place, and he had always been extremely confident in his own talent.

Although he currently had only one soul ring, and it was merely a white soul ring.

His innate talent was right there. Why couldn't he join Spirit Hall, become one of its members, and enjoy better treatment?

At that thought, Tang San's eyes flickered slightly.

Beside him, a flash of fear passed through Xiao Wu's eyes, but it gradually subsided.

Only true experts could see through her identity as a soul beast.

Under normal circumstances, even if they went to Spirit City, they would only be entering the most basic academy.

In a place like that, it was practically impossible to encounter a Titled Douluo or an expert of that level.

In other words, her identity would likewise be impossible to expose.

Looking at the somewhat shabby living conditions around them, hesitation also surfaced in Xiao Wu's eyes.

Seeing the longing in Tang San's eyes and the hesitation hidden in Xiao Wu's gaze, Chen Ye's lips curled slightly.

His gaze calmly shifted behind him.

Chen Yue was standing there. Upon hearing Chen Ye's words, she first looked excitedly at her brother, then ran straight to Xiao Wu's side and whispered into her ear.

As Chen Yue said something unknown to her, the hesitation in Xiao Wu's eyes gradually wavered.

In the end, she silently nodded.

"I really do want to go. It's just that I don't know whether my talent is good enough... whether I can enter Spirit Hall's academy to study."

Compared to Xiao Wu's calmness, Tang San appeared somewhat uneasy.

"Um, I want to go too. I want to join Spirit Hall's academy too. If possible, please... help me."

Tang San spoke hesitantly. He had offended Chen Ye before and was unsure whether Chen Ye would truly be willing to take him along.

Yet Chen Ye's expression remained utterly calm as he met Tang San's gaze.

In truth, Yu Xiaogang could have taken Tang San away.

It was simply that Yu Xiaogang himself was unwilling to return to Spirit Hall, even unwilling to make use of any connections related to Spirit Hall.

That man, how should one put it...

Outside, he constantly carried the title of a Spirit Hall elder and took every advantage possible through that connection.

Whether entering the Soul Hunting Forest or heading into dangerous places everywhere, he relied entirely on Spirit Hall's token to travel unimpeded without spending a single coin.

Yet he himself was unwilling to have the slightest involvement with Spirit Hall.

It was like wanting to have it both ways.

People like that only made others feel especially disgusted and repulsed.

But Chen Ye had no additional opinion on the matter.

He did not believe Spirit Hall could truly keep Tang San and Xiao Wu.

But as long as he could bring those two over, Tang Hao would never dare set foot in Spirit City lightly.

It could be said that even if Tang Hao dared to infiltrate Spirit City, no matter how deeply he hid, there was a strong chance his tracks would be exposed.

If a Spirit Hall expert could deal with Tang Hao ahead of time, it would be an enormous boon for Chen Ye.

And this would also resolve another deadlock: how the hundred-year soul ring on Tang San's body had been replaced with a ten-year soul ring.

As the abilities of his Time-Space Grip became fully exposed in the future, sooner or later he would have to use Time-Space Miniaturization.

When that time came, once that absolute invisibility ability appeared, Tang San or Yu Xiaogang would immediately realize that he had been behind that incident.

Something like that was enough to ruin his future.

Once it was uncovered, the consequences would be devastating.

But if it happened while he was inside Spirit Hall, with the other two also there, then the matter would not become such a major issue instead.

After all, although Yu Xiaogang held an elder token that forced many people to obey him.

As long as Chen Ye kept a low profile for a while longer and waited for his talent to truly reveal itself, Yu Xiaogang would no longer be the one who decided who had the final say.

No matter how lovesick Bibi Dong was, she could not openly scheme to kill him under those circumstances.

And that was his opportunity.

An opportunity to completely doom Tang San—or rather, to crush him beneath his feet and allow himself to rise more easily.

He did not care whether he was a good person or a bad person.

What he needed was simply more opportunities.

He wanted to grow stronger. He wanted to become a god.

And his greatest enemy was not anyone else, but the so-called future Sea God and Asura God—Tang San.

Although he currently had no interest in either of those godhoods and did not even intend to obtain them.

As long as Tang San could be prevented from becoming a god, however, his own chances of becoming one—or rather, of reclaiming that godhood which did not originally exist—would rise considerably.

His goal from beginning to end had never been some ordinary godhood.

It was the godhood that belonged to the Dragon God.

If he had never considered this direction before, then with the awakening of the Space-Time Dragon, he now possessed a certain possibility.

The Space-Time Dragon might only have been the Dragon God's shadow guard, but it was also the being that had the most contact with the Dragon God.

Among dragonkind, it might have been inferior to the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King themselves, but in terms of bloodline level, it was absolutely the tier directly beneath them.

And the greatest issue was that he differed from everyone else.

Others knew nothing of the era to come, but Chen Ye did.

Within the Dragon God's remains was hidden the complete Dragon God spinal marrow.

It was the complete Dragon God spinal marrow, prepared by the old Dragon God for the next generation of Dragon God, and it was also the Dragon God's greatest foundation.

It was the greatest opportunity to become the Dragon God.

It also included that super divine artifact, the Dragon Ascension Pillar.

All of it was part of the Dragon God's remaining foundation.

Yet in the end, neither the Silver Dragon King nor Tang Wulin, the inheritor of the Golden Dragon King, obtained those treasures.

The main reason was that neither of them knew about them, and the more important reason was that the old Dragon God did not wish to give them away.

But Chen Ye was different.

He himself had mastered the complete Space-Time Dragon.

Relying on the power of space, he could enter the Dragon Bone Secret Realm, which had not yet appeared in this era.

After forcibly breaking in, he did not care about dragon bones or anything of the sort.

As long as he could forcibly seize the Dragon God spinal marrow, then against an old Dragon God who had long since died completely and could not be revived, he had plenty of ways to take the super divine artifact and the Dragon God spinal marrow.

Then, relying on the connection between himself and the Dragon God—or rather, between the Space-Time Dragon and the Dragon God—he could test whether he could obtain the inheritance belonging to the Dragon God.

This path was, in truth, extremely difficult.

The first step of his plan was to find the Dragon Bone Secret Realm.

But he had absolutely no idea where the Dragon Bone Secret Realm was hidden in this era.

Still, according to his speculation, it should likewise be concealed within those two undiscovered barbaric continents.

Whether traveling to those two continents or conducting a search within them would require him to possess sufficiently high status and sufficient strength.

In an era watched over by the gods, such a matter was immensely troublesome.

But once he succeeded, he would truly obtain the Dragon God's inheritance.

In this era, where God Kings stood at the peak, once a supreme God King appeared.

No matter how powerful you were or how deep your foundations, you would never be a match for the Dragon God.

Back then, the Dragon God had personally destroyed the ten Dragon Clan God Kings while fighting one against ten.

After that, he had only been killed by those first-generation God Kings because he had deliberately stopped fighting.

If the Dragon God had not willingly sought death, the first-generation Asura God and the others would never have been able to truly kill him.
