Chen Cong smiled calmly and said, "The Dragon-Pattern Long Family is rather unusual."
"The way their family passes down its martial soul is very special. Unlike other soul masters, they don't inherit one parent's martial soul or a mutation of an existing one."
"It's inherited through their bloodline. As long as someone belongs to the Long Family, patterns of some random dragon will appear on their body during martial soul awakening, granting them that dragon's abilities."
"As for what dragon it will be, their awakened martial souls are difficult to classify uniformly. It all comes down to luck."

"That makes their martial souls very difficult to rank. The gap between the highest and lowest is enormous. Overall, I'd rate them as eighth-rank martial souls."
"With a dragon-pattern martial soul, every ten-level breakthrough into a new rank grants one of that dragon's abilities. It's somewhat similar to the Ancient Primordial Yellow Dragon of the Primordial Yellow Bell."

"Dragon-pattern martial souls are different. Neither the dragon species nor its abilities are fixed."
"Although they resemble the mutations in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, their changes are more concentrated in attributes, with less physical enhancement. Most importantly, they're far
