A Familiar Yet Unfamiliar Dragon Valley

After examining the spatial distortion, Xu Xingyu finally found a solution, although it was a bit time-consuming.

He turned to the Dragon Emperor and said, "Based on my observation, this descended small world is connected far too deeply to your Dragon Graveyard. It feels as if not only something here is attracting this small world, but the Dragon Graveyard itself is also calling out to it. Dragon Emperor, is my analysis correct?"

"Just as you said, it's because of this that our Dragon Graveyard is connected to this unknown small world." The Dragon Emperor nodded helplessly and said, "The problem is that we have no idea what is attracting this small world. Otherwise, we would have dealt with it long ago, and there wouldn't be so much trouble."

"I already have some guesses about this," Xu Xingyu said after a moment's thought. "However, I need to make some preparations to confirm them."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Emperor immediately exclaimed excitedly, "You really have a way? What do you need me to do? I will do everything in my power to help you with anything I can."

But what Xu Xingyu said next left the Dragon Emperor somewhat incredulous. She said calmly, "I plan to go to this small world with Gu Qiuxi to investigate. If possible, could you help us open a small crack in the seal?"

"This... isn't this a bit too risky for the inheritor?" The Dragon Emperor said, sweating profusely. "You know, we have no idea what kind of world that unknown little world is. The only thing I know is that the rules of that world are extremely powerful, and even Saint Rank experts cannot defy them. Once you enter, all your Magic Power will be forcibly sealed. What will you do if you get trapped inside?"

Xu Xingyu did not immediately answer the Dragon Emperor's question. Instead, she handed him a nine-colored Dragon Emperor scale and explained, "Don't worry about that. This dragon scale in your hand is connected to my Divine Sense. I can use this dragon scale as a reference point to teleport Gu Qiuxi and me away whenever I want."

"But..."

Before the Dragon Emperor could offer any further rebuttal, Xu Xingyu continued, "Besides that, I also want to see if we can find the missing remains of your Dragon Emperor lineage in that small world. It would be a pity if they were simply lost, since every Dragon Clan should have its own resting place."

This left the Dragon Emperor speechless; he wanted to say something to stop them, but couldn't bring himself to utter a word.

If Xu Xingyu had used other reasons, the Dragon Emperor might have argued for her safety, but since it involved searching for the missing remains of the Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Emperor couldn't stop her. After all, he also felt guilty about the missing remains of the previous emperors, so finding them would be the best outcome if there was an opportunity.

With a wave of his hand, the Dragon Emperor summoned countless chain-like objects that appeared near the spatial distortion. Surprisingly, these chains were composed of one of five colors: red, blue, yellow, green, or brown. The moment the chains appeared, the spatial distortion seemed to retaliate and began to tremble incessantly.

However, those chains that appeared out of nowhere were not to be trifled with; no matter how the space distorted or how it moved, it was tightly bound by the chains.

This is the Five Elements Seal set up by the Dragon Emperor and other powerful members of the Five Elements Dragon Clan. It uses the interaction of the five elements to forcibly distort space and seal it. Although Xu Xingyu has seen more sophisticated seals, this one is no less impressive.

Just as Xu Xingyu was observing the seal laid down by the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Emperor's voice rang out again, "Xu Xingyu, are you sure you don't want me to send other powerful Dragon Clan members to accompany you? You should know that the threats posed by that small world are unknown to us."

Xu Xingyu shook her head and said, "No need, Qiu'er and I are enough. More people would only make teleportation more troublesome. Besides, you also said that that space restricts Magic Power, and you can only rely on Spiritual Power and Bloodline Power there. Gu Qiuxi and I happen to have spiritual and blood energy cultivation levels that exceed Magic Power cultivation levels, so the two of us are enough."

After careful consideration, the Dragon Emperor realized that Xu Xingyu were indeed true. Unlike normal magicians, Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi seemed to focus more on the cultivation of blood and spirit than on Magic Power. Xu Xingyu had already reached the God Level level in both of these aspects, while Gu Qiuxi, although weaker, was still close to the Saint Rank. In this light, such combat power might actually be a bit excessive.

"Sigh, then so be it," the Dragon Emperor sighed and said, "I will open a crack in the seal for you to enter, and I hope you will prosper."

After he finished speaking, the brown chain suddenly broke. The space that had been comfortably twisted by the chain seemed to have found a loophole and began to break through the seal.

Upon seeing this, Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi nodded to each other, then grabbed each other's hands and transformed into a streak of silver light, heading towards the place where space was distorted and broken.

The moment the silver light dissipated from the spatial distortion, it seemed to have willingly merged into the spatial distortion and disappeared.

However, after the silver light disappeared, the spatial distortion seemed to be stimulated and began to rage uncontrollably. Faced with such spatial distortion, the remaining four chains were also on the verge of collapse.

"Earth Dragon Heaven-Sealing Lock!!!! Seal!!!!"

The brown chains that the Dragon Emperor Dragon Emperor previously shattered reappeared as he formed hand seals, distorting and binding the space. With the blessing of the brown chains, the previously disrupted balance of the five elements was restored, and no matter how violently the space distorted, it could not break through.

Looking at the space distortion that had been restored to its original state, the Dragon Emperor murmured, "I entrust everything to you."

It was a wasteland, with countless dragon corpses scattered across the land. Their enormous bodies towered like mountains, and their skeletons lay strewn across the wasteland, each massive bone resembling a giant's tomb, making one marvel at the former power and glory of these Dragon Clan.

Only the colorful Dragon Cloud in the sky still swirled and danced, as if adding a touch of mystery and magnificence to this desolate land.

Looking at this desolate and bleak wasteland, Xu Xingyu said with a heavy heart, "Dragon Valley really is both familiar and strange!"

"Is this the Dragon Valley of the past?" Gu Qiuxi said after a moment of silence, "Isn't the difference between this and the Dragon Valley we see in the future a bit too great?"

Xu Xingyu silently replied, "If I didn't exist, then logically this is how Dragon Valley should appear to the people: a place where the Dragon Clan' regret and resentment gather."

Recalling the seemingly absurd truth in the original story, it's truly no laughing matter! Such a tragedy should never have happened!
