The Mountain Dragon King's power dissipated.

The dragon bones buried in the grave also dimmed. If Qian Renxue were to dig up this freshly filled grave, she would be astonished to find that the dragon skeleton which had caused her so much trouble had become just like the previous ones.

But clearly, kind-hearted Qian Renxue would not do such a thing.

"What tremendous power."

Qian Renxue clenched her fists, surprise in her eyes. Just now, she had clearly felt her physical strength double outright!

One had to know that after being enhanced by the entire Dragon Clan Cemetery, her physical strength had already reached a terrifying level.

By Qian Renxue's estimate, relying on physical strength alone, she would have been able to contend with relatively outstanding Title Douluo.

And now, that strength had doubled!

Qian Renxue did not know what level her strength had reached, but if she needed a point of reference, then without exaggeration, she felt she could easily crush her uncles Qianjun and Jiang Mo.

"Compared with Grandpa Golden Crocodile..."

Qian Renxue shook her head, somewhat uncertain. She had not seen Grandpa Golden Crocodile in a long time, and she had never seen Golden Crocodile fight.

She also was not sure whether her physical strength could reach that level.

"Forget it. I'll test it after I get out."

Qian Renxue no longer dwelled on the matter and instead recalled Heavenly Dao's instructions.

Although a very, very long time had passed, she still remembered the task Heavenly Dao had given her.

Enter the core region of the Dragon Realm.

But... where was the core region?

When she buried the myriad dragons, she had practically traveled through the entire Dragon Clan Cemetery, yet she had discovered nothing unusual.

Not to mention the core, she had not even found a place that looked like one.

Qian Renxue looked around. "Could the core region not be here? But Heavenly Dao..."

"Sigh."

A sigh rang out.

The next second, seven-colored light bloomed from Qian Renxue's body!

Before her astonished eyes, a familiar figure emerged from within her body before vanishing in a flash.

Whoosh!

A breeze swept past, and Qian Renxue vanished from where she stood.

"You have come."

A voice sounded beside Qian Renxue's ear. She opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar man shrouded in seven-colored light before her. Startled at first, she cautiously asked,

"Who are you?"

"I am the Dragon God."

"The Dragon God? Are you a god?"

Hearing Qian Renxue's question, the Dragon God froze slightly. "You... don't know me?"

A little fellow who had forcibly broken through the seal with the power of the Icefire Dragon Kings and entered the Dragon Realm actually did not know him? Had the god behind her not told her about him?

"Hm?" Qian Renxue was confused. "What should I know?"

"Interesting, interesting."

The Dragon God laughed. He could sense that this little fellow before him truly seemed never to have heard his name.

Although he could not understand what the person behind Qian Renxue was planning, it no longer mattered. She was already inside, and the person behind her would reveal themselves sooner or later. There was no need to rush to investigate.

First, he wanted to have a chat with this little fellow.

"I am the Dragon God, the god of the dragon clan."

The Dragon God casually explained, then looked intently at Qian Renxue.

"Can you tell me why you did those things outside?"

"Outside? Things?"

Qian Renxue's tense heart relaxed somewhat. The dragon clan's god looked quite kind. He probably would not hurt her, right?

And since this was where the dragon clan's god resided, did that not mean this was the dragon clan's core region?

Then Heavenly Dao should be arriving soon, right?

With that thought, the urgency in Qian Renxue's heart faded greatly, and her entire expression relaxed.

However, considering the strength of the Dragon God before her, she still spoke respectfully.

"Are you asking about the Myriad Dragon Cemetery?"

"The Myriad Dragon Cemetery? That name works as well." The Dragon God smiled faintly.

"I simply felt they were pitiful," Qian Renxue replied without hesitation.

"They are pitiful? Do you truly think so?" There was something strange in the Dragon God's gaze. What an interesting answer.

"Yes."

Qian Renxue nodded. "I did not feel that way during my first year here, so I kept wandering through the Myriad Dragon Cemetery. Only after looking for so long, once my heart had calmed down..."

"Seeing these remains exposed in the wilderness, I did not know what they had done in life, but seeing them suffer such misery even after death left me feeling rather uncomfortable."

"After all, on the Douluo Continent, the dead must be laid to rest in the earth."

"And so you thought of helping them rest in peace?"

"Yes."

"..."

The Dragon God stared at the girl before him. After a long while, he sighed.

He could sense that every word the girl spoke was true, even if she now harbored a small measure of self-interest.

But the Dragon God could be certain that when she buried the myriad dragons, her heart had been pure, without any selfish motives mixed in.

He could not help but sigh inwardly. As expected of the successor chosen by the Angel God.

This innocent heart and compassionate way of acting truly bore the bearing of the first Angel God.

The Angel God truly had a worthy successor!

"Tell me, what do you want?" The Dragon God decided to grant this human girl some gifts.

Although she had already gained enormous benefits in the process of burying the myriad dragons, that did not prevent the Dragon God from giving her additional rewards.

"Ah?"

Qian Renxue was at a loss. Why was this so sudden? I don't even know what I want.

Seeing Qian Renxue's expression, the Dragon God shook his head. "A Million-Year Soul Bone, a Divine-Bestowed Spirit Ring, or treasures of the dragon clan—whatever you want, I can give it to you."

"However, I can only grant you three treasures. They may be repeated, so think carefully before choosing."

"A Million-Year Soul Bone? A Divine-Bestowed Spirit Ring? Dragon clan treasures?"

Qian Renxue was somewhat shocked. This Dragon God before her was incredibly generous, offering Million-Year Soul Bones and Divine-Bestowed Spirit Rings right away.

She had heard her grandfather mention the latter and had seen it once or twice in books, but as for the former, a Million-Year Soul Bone—she had not merely never seen one in a book; she had only ever heard of one in myths.

One had to know that even the Angel God's nine Soul Bones were only hundred-thousand-year ones.

As for the third option, dragon clan treasures, since they were listed alongside the first two, they presumably would not be inferior.

Qian Renxue swallowed. Faced with such tempting choices, her first thought was, I want them all.

After all, with these three choices, she could choose each of them once.

But they could be repeated!

If she chose three Million-Year Soul Bones...

After pondering for a long while, Qian Renxue opened her mouth. Just as she was about to state her choice with difficulty, the words at her lips changed of their own accord.

"I want a martial soul—the martial soul of the Light Dragon King among the Nine Dragon Kings, the Holy Dragon King. If that is unavailable, I can also choose its lower-ranked martial soul, one that can evolve later."

"Is this your own choice?" The Dragon God's gaze sharpened slightly, though his tone remained relaxed.

"My own choice!"
