So that's what you were thinking all this time?
The dragonfly monster cackled, its disgusting amputated limbs opening wide, revealing two pearl-like eyeballs that Present Sight. The beautiful light made Chen Qing squint slightly. He could clearly see that there was still emotion in those eyes, and amidst the dazzling brilliance, there was even a hint of pleading.
Chen Qing pursed his lips slightly and looked at the other party, saying, "Of all the seniors, the only thing that could catch my eye is that item."
"What an arrogant young man." Several people chuckled, "Do you think we don't know that what you really want to protect is that thing behind you?"
Chen Qing's expression remained unchanged. "My subordinate, Dragon Transformation, was someone I had already chosen beforehand. The sudden arrival of you seniors was indeed unexpected, but so what? You seniors wouldn't be planning to make a move now, would you?"
The men's expressions shifted slightly. The fighting above was intense and extremely noisy. They had acted quickly enough to perhaps give them a chance to bypass the young man without him noticing, but they couldn't see through him.
This kid is strange; his physical energy doesn't seem strong, and he's clearly still at the threshold of the Transcendent realm.
But the fact that it withstood their soul-capturing technique clearly indicates that something terrifying is hidden inside its body.
Taking action rashly at this time would be very inappropriate.
"Then tell me, what makes you think you can help us find the Purple Fetus?" the old man chuckled. "Don't tell me we can't find it ourselves?"
"You can't find it?" Chen Qing shook his head. " The Purple Fetus, a brethren of a dragon maiden, is extremely difficult to conceive. Theoretically, it's impossible for it to appear. Dragon maidens are different from dragon sons. Dragon maidens are chaste and will not marry twice. If forced, they will even burn themselves with their own dragon blood. Once, a Western Demon Buddha used a secret technique of pleasure to seduce a dragon maiden and barely succeeded. However, during childbirth, the pain was too great, and the dragon maiden instantly regained her senses and committed suicide by burning her blood without hesitation, not even caring about the fetus in her womb. It is truly a rare occurrence in the world!"
"Only one line succeeded back then. It was the extremely lustful Heavenly Python Mother Dragon who successfully transformed and mated with the Human King. She was chased by the Dragon Clan and fled to the Yin-Yang Road, where she gave birth to Ghost King Xiang."
"Oh?" The group's expressions turned serious upon hearing this. "So you really are Mr. Dongliu's disciple, knowing such a secret!"
The Heavenly Python was one of the few ancient forces in the late ancient period that could rival the Dragon Clan. Both forces were vying for the most powerful snake species in the world, since snakes could become Heavenly Python or Dragons and gather water vapor, making them extremely important strategic resources. At that time, the two forces fought fiercely for this.
In theory, opposing forces shouldn't have any secret techniques intersecting, but dragons are lustful by nature. The West Sea Dragon King of that generation, perhaps driven by lust, was seduced by the Heavenly Snake Mother and mated with her. He even stupidly revealed the Dragon Transformation Technique and secretly helped her Dragon Transformation.
Ultimately, the Snake Mother Dragon Transformation, but her lustful nature remained unchanged. She lacked the chaste character of other dragon maidens, engaging in extramarital affairs everywhere, and even eventually mated with the emperor of the Central Plains!
That time, she even got pregnant.
The human and the dragon were of different species, resulting in a different offspring. This disrupted the fortunes of the Central Plains at the time, causing several ancient places to show signs of revival. On that occasion, the Heavenly Python Palace and the Dragon Palace joined forces for the first time to kill the Snake Mother who had transformed into a dragon, but she escaped to the Yin-Yang Road.
In that environment, the Snake Mother of the Yin-Yang Road was still able to give birth to a child. The child devoured hundreds of millions of evil spirits upon Yin-Yang Road and was hunted down by several major Ghost King forces. However, the more he was forced, the stronger he became, and in the end, he was able to stand alongside several old monsters of the Yin-Yang Road as a Ghost King.
That is, the later infamous Ghost King Xiang!
"Such species should not have appeared in the Dragon Palace. If they have, they must have been hidden in a seal by the Dragon Palace. With the mere Dragon Maiden's Eye, it would be impossible for her to find them."
"You can't find the Dragon Maiden's Eye, but you can?" the monster said sinisterly.
"Yes," Chen Qing nodded, "But you have to give me what I want."
"Alright!" The group nodded without hesitation, but they seemed completely unconcerned by the Dragon Maiden's Eye.
Chen Qing's expression remained unchanged, but his heart sank to the bottom.
A hypothesis began to form in my mind.
Found the Purple Fetus?
Of course he couldn't find it. Just kidding, he had no idea that a second Purple Fetus had appeared in the Dragon Palace.
Theoretically speaking, the Ghost King Xiang should be irreplaceable, but judging from the attitude of these guys, there is indeed Purple Fetus hidden here!
Purple Fetus are associated with emperors.
The Xiao Household emperor, the terrifying demons in the palace related to the Yin-Yang Road, and the Dragon Palace's opening with indifference, and the opening of the Heavenly Python Palace.
Could it be...?
Chen Qing's face darkened. If that were the case, it seemed that their forces had already infiltrated the Dragon Palace during this trip!
"In that case, let's sign a spell contract."
"Now, here?" The lead cricket frowned deeply. "Aren't you afraid?"
Clearly, this refers to the area above. Judging from the horrific sounds from above, the one controlling the Yaksha has probably begun a massacre without regard for anything else. It's easy to guess that if that guy wants to control the Dragon Palace, he will absolutely not allow Dragon Transformation creatures to revive. After all, his strongest fighting force consists of those Yaksha, and he will not allow any dragon species with a fighting power higher than the Yaksha to appear before he controls the True Dragon Breed!
Once this place is discovered, it will certainly fall within the range of enemy fire.
"With the fighting so intense up there, and the spells in such disarray, how could it be so easy for us to be discovered when we sign a spell contract down here?"
"What if we get discovered?"
"Senior's words are amusing," Chen Qing laughed. "Given the current situation, does Senior still expect a foolproof plan? Without the checks and balances of a magical contract, I wouldn't dare to trade with you, would I? Are we just going to wait it out like this?"
The three exchanged glances, and after a brief exchange of looks, the old man in the lead finally stepped forward. "Alright, in that case, let's use a magical contract!"
He was about to use his blood contract when Chen Qing stopped him immediately. "Senior, please wait."
"How?"
"Senior's technique is from tens of thousands of years ago, and its methods are complex. This junior dares not gamble with your technique." Chen Qing dripped a drop of blood, which floated above the three of them. "Let's use this junior's blood contract instead."
The three of them glanced at the hand seal in Chen Qing's hand and instantly recognized it as Divine Fire Spell Contract.
He narrowed his eyes immediately. "Your background is quite peculiar. You have a lineage from the South Sea, yet you're causing trouble in the West Sea."
"There was no other way, I was forced into this situation." Chen Qing smiled bitterly. This was half true and half false. To be honest, his original plan was to go to the South Sea Dragon Palace of the East Sea or the South Sea, but he did not intend to come here to meet the monster of the West Sea first.
"Alright then." The three nodded. "We'll use yours."
Although the Divine Fire Spell is a secret tradition of the South Sea, the contract formed is simple and easy to understand, unlike other techniques that are prone to underhanded dealings, so it is acceptable.
If this kid can really help them find the Purple Fetus, then what they want will be theirs immediately.
The idea had barely formed in your head when it vanished!
A trident, moving with lightning speed, descended from the sky and shattered the leading old sorcerer into pieces!
