Starting With 100 Million Lives

"Ancestor of Azure Dragon!"

"Great Emperor, so you're still alive!"

"Boo hoo, we've been thinking of you day and night over these years..."

The Azure Dragon Empress, who had 'disappeared' for fifty billion years, reappears, which is no less than an earth-shattering tremor for the entire Dragon Race.

Once the news spreads, even the Demon Race and the Immortal and Demon Realms would be stirred up by the waves.

The Immortal Emperor level itself can affect an entire situation.

Not to mention, she is not just any Immortal Emperor, but the first Azure Dragon in the Immortal Realm.

"Ancestor, where are you?"

Many dragons in Azure Dragon Valley looked around, searching aimlessly, but could only hear her voice, unable to see her true form.

"Did sister appear just in time?"

Her teasing voice came to Brother Cheng's ears, while others seemed not to hear it.

"Aren't you only able to move within Azure Dragon Valley?"

This elder sister's last lingering thought originally couldn't exist for long and would soon dissipate into the void.

It was only because she escaped back to Azure Dragon Valley, her birthplace.

That lingering thought thus could be preserved and continued until today.

Cang Ling said cheerfully: "It's all thanks to your appearance, little brother. The Nine Patterns Bloodline itself has additional Dragon Source Qi, staying by your side, this lingering thought can be preserved for longer."

Brother Cheng's eyes flickered: "Doesn't that mean I've done you a big favor?"

"That's right."

"So shouldn't you give me something in return?"

Thankfully, this was spoken through transmitted sound, otherwise, Cang Ji beside him would have jumped up.

How dare you extort the ancestor of Azure Dragon! This is such outrage!

But the Azure Dragon Empress was clearly not angered by this.

She even replied with a smile: "What compensation do you want, a kiss perhaps?"

What the...?

Brother Cheng was sweating like a waterfall.

Cang Ji, Cangqiong, Yikong, please manage your Empress a bit, let her be more dignified!

Though he scoffed at it, Brother Cheng's words were quite honest.

"Cough, but you can't manifest yourself now, should I kiss the air?"

Regarding her talk of being among the 'top five beauties in the Immortal Realm', he actually felt very interested.

Of course, this was all in the name of verifying if she was truthful.

Brother Cheng is always a meticulous person!

"The future is unpredictable..."

Cang Ling whispered again in his ear, the sound really felt tingling and itchy, driving deep into the bones.

Brother Cheng thought about it, and sooner or later, he would be transformed into a voice-controlled person due to this.

"Then I'll save it for later, don't renege when the time comes!"

"Hehe..."

Other presences at the scene were unaware of the 'important' topics these two Azure Dragon Emperors were discussing.

But above, Cyan Dragon Emperor Xuanming eventually figured out the truth after his initial shock.

"Cang Ling, so you only have one lingering thought left."

"I thought you were really alive."

As soon as these words were said, the entire audience was once again in an uproar.

Especially those in Azure Dragon Valley, all dragon races instantly fell from great joy to great sorrow.

They originally thought the Azure Dragon Emperor could lead them gloriously once more.

But it was all just an illusion?

"Xuanming, you should be grateful that I'm down to my last lingering thought."

"If I were alive, you would be crawling your way back today!"

Facing Cyan Dragon Emperor, Cang Ling swiftly switched back to her cool and domineering mode.

These words thrilled and moved the dragons like Cang Ji and Yikong behind her.

Once the Azure Dragon Emperor had every right to speak such words.

The Speed Rule, elusive and shadowless, had once worn down the other two Dragon Emperors to the point of exhaustion.

Cyan Dragon Emperor clearly remembered those times, inevitably feeling a bit of a headache.

"You really intend to defend him?"

"You should be able to see that he's just a human who gained the Azure Dragon Bloodline."

"Letting a human become the master of Azure Dragon will lead to what consequences, I don't believe you don't realize it."

"This person has been here only a few days, yet he declared a rupture between Azure Dragon Race and Cyan Dragon Race."

"Now almost causing a war between the two races, I suspect he's a weapon sent by the Immortal Realm to disrupt our Dragon Race..."

His words made many dragons in Cyan Dragon Valley and Golden Dragon Valley nod in agreement.

Indeed, humans were once the greatest enemy of the Dragon Race.

Allowing a human to become the leader of the Dragon Race simply wasn't acceptable.

Even if the person wasn't from Cyan Dragon or Golden Dragon sides, he would affect the overall situation of the Dragon Race nonetheless.

"Enough..."

The Azure Dragon Empress impatiently interrupted him.

"Xuanming, spare your useless arguments."

"Who said he isn't part of the Dragon Race?"

"I say he is Azure Dragon, he is the purest Azure Dragon!"

Brother Cheng could see that this elder sister wasn't one for reasoning previously.

But he rather appreciated her defense.

The high-ranking figures like Cang Ji, Cangqiong, and Yikong echoed her response.

"Exactly!"

"Our ancestor of Azure Dragon has already spoken, why don't you retreat!"

"Who knows the Azure Dragon better than her?"

"Hahaha..."

High up in the sky, Xuanming laughed heartily.

"Cang Ling, since you say he is truly one of the Dragon Race, then dare you let him try the Dragon Sealing Pool?"

The Azure Dragon Empress scoffed: "Xuanming, are you still living hundreds of billions of years ago, the Dragon Sealing Pool has been abandoned for who knows how long."

"As long as he agrees, I am willing to spend a billion-year effort to reopen the Dragon Sealing Pool!"

"Do you really think I'd agree?"

Xuanming said indifferently: "True gold fears no fire test; are you afraid he can't manifest?"

Cang Ling's voice turned chilly, "He is already the Dragon Emperor of Azure Dragon Race, the Dragon Sealing Pool is a humiliation to his identity, surely you know that yourself!"

Most dragons around also discussed the point.

"The Dragon Sealing Pool is meant to enshrine Dragon Race, the Dragon Emperor is supreme, how can it be enshrined?"

"Indeed, that's going too far."

Hearing the discussions around, Brother Cheng couldn't help but be curious.

He quietly asked Cang Ling, "What is the Dragon Sealing Pool?"

"Hundreds of billions of years ago, the Dragon Race formally started the war against the Immortal and Demon Realms."

Cang Ling said slowly, "Before this, a large number of Human Race cultivators and dragons were closely associated, some even mixed their blood."

"Once the war started, most of these humans and Half-Dragon Race joined the Immortal and Demon Realms."

"Additionally, some Immortal Demon cultivators transformed into dragon appearances, deliberately mixing into the Dragon Race, spying and assassinating using all means possible."

"Their existence caused great losses to the Dragon Race."

Brother Cheng expressed understanding; such disguises causing chaos internally were indeed very damaging.

"What happened then?"

"To identify true Dragon Race members, and to integrate the Three Great Dragon Valleys, to unify and mobilize the Dragon Race's power, the Dragon Sealing Pool came into being."

"That was a test deployed jointly by myself, Brother Golden Dragon, and Xuanming."

"The Dragon Sealing Pool consists of nine pools: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, White, and Black; all dragons entered them sequentially."

"Back then, the three of us added Bone Blood Seeds of deceased Dragon Race into the pool, an extremely large quantity, with no less than hundreds of Quasi-Emperors alone!"

"True descendants of Dragon Race would enter and stimulate the strength of the Dragon Bones."

"As for foreign races, due to rejection from Dragon Race Bone Blood Seeds, equivalent to a deadly poison, entering the Red Pool would result in instant disintegration."

"Even some Half-Dragon Race agents with strength not inferior to Quasi-Emperors couldn't pass the Orange Pool!"

"Because the Dragon Sealing Pool doesn't just assess strength; it assesses purity..."
