My Legend Still Exists in the Cultivation World

Chapter 142: Dragon Prison pt. 2



The cultivators took their positions. Following Jing Yue's order, the Three Destruction Formation was activated immediately, and the golden light spread to the surroundings like water waves. Finally, a golden whisk was formed in midair.

The formation concealed the cultivators’ aura, leaving only the breath of death around them.

The dragon resentment couldn't find the target and raged. The black claws merged and formed the shape of a dragon, and the dragon's tail kept flicking to detect the position of the enemy.

The giant dragon moved slowly, gradually approaching the formation. When the giant dragon entered the formation completely, the whisk coiled around to trap the dragon firmly.

The golden light was dazzling, purifying the dragon resentment little by little. The giant dragon kept roaring, and the sound waves made everyone want to cover their ears, but they couldn’t move. They couldn’t let the dragon resentment discover any weak spots and take the opportunity to escape the formation!

Jing Yue was confident enough in the formation. The dragon resentment seemed powerful, but it was only the lower-level Return to Void stage. As long as the cultivators setting up the formation didn’t make any mistakes, it had no chance of escaping.

But would they behave?

Jing Yue sneered. He would wait and see.

Seeing the dragon resentment gradually dissipating, a demonic cultivator suddenly had some ideas. Since he was on the inside, the cultivators on the outside were the most vulnerable.

Since the giant dragon was about to disperse, the residual resentment should be blocked at the periphery. He should make good use of it and get rid of a few righteous cultivators.

Anyway, with the cultivators on the outside as cannon fodder, he should be safe.

Therefore, the demonic cultivator deliberately took the wrong step.

With just one step, the formation messed up. The whisk loosened, and the remaining dragon resentment broke free and rushed to the cultivators on the periphery!

The demonic cultivator secretly rejoiced when he saw the black mist pass over the cultivators and come at him instead!

“Argh!”

The demonic cultivator screamed, but he was corroded by resentment and instantly exploded to bits.

As the eye of the formation, Jing Yue smiled slightly, thanked the demonic cultivator in his heart, and began to close the formation.

It turned out that once the formation was closed, the eye of the formation would suffer a certain amount of backlash. But now that there was a demonic cultivator to share it with him, the backlash he suffered was so slight that it could be ignored.

As such, Jing Yue successfully purified the resentment without any effort. Although the dragon resentment would regenerate, at least there was no danger for the time being.

He was about to move forward when suddenly, a genderless voice rang in his heart, “Jing-laozu, please stop.”

Jing Yue frowned and looked around, wondering who was calling him.

Jing Yue, “You are…”

“I’m the sinned dragon you saw earlier.”

Jing Yue's eyes narrowed and he said, “What’s the matter?”

The sinned dragon said without concealment, “I want to ask Laozu to help me. You’ll receive a great reward.”

Jing Yue, “Help you escape? Impossible.”

The sinned dragon, “No, help the dragon fetus in my stomach escape from the Dragon Tomb. I can let my dragon fetus acknowledge you as master.”

Jing Yue was greatly shaken. A dragon’s master. Even if he was a Tribulation Passage in his previous life, this was something he would never have dared to think about!

As far as he knew, other than the divine race of the primordial ages, the dragon race would never bow to other races, especially the human race they despised. Even if a human ascended through Tribulation Passage, it was impossible to tame a dragon!

Because the dragon was a divine beast. Even if their bloodline was not pure now, they would never become a captive pet of the human race.

Even though the blue phoenix, also a divine beast,  followed Jing Yue now,  it was because the blue phoenix was born because of him, and there was karma between the two of them.

Moreover, although the blue phoenix liked to call itself a little pet and called him the master, he did not form a bond with the blue phoenix, so they were not an owner and spiritual pet in the true sense, but more like soulmates.

To sum up, Jing Yue didn’t think an Amethyst Abode like him could be favored by a dragon.

“I know you have doubts, but I’m forced to do so too. Maybe you’re the only one who can save my child's life.”

Jing Yue, “I’m sorry. This is too surreal. I can’t believe it.”

“In the first place, since you love your child so much, why are you willing to let him acknowledge a master? After doing so, his life no longer belongs to him, but to me. If I die, he’ll surely die too, and no matter what I tell him to do, he’s powerless to resist.” Jing Yue listed his doubts in detail.

“Secondly, the dragon race is far and few in between. Even if it was a serious crime of treason, the Dragon Ancestor was unwilling to kill, so why would the Dragon Palace treat you like this when you’re pregnant with a child?”

The sinned dragon, “Because my child is not a purebred dragon race, but conceived by me and a human.”

Jing Yue, “What?!”

He knew that an offspring couldn’t be conceived between Yao and a human. Although the current dragon race was considered Yao, they had the bloodline of a divine beast. Was it due to this reason?

The sinned dragon, “I stole an acacia fruit from the Dragon Palace. The dragon race has difficulty in conceiving, and this fruit can increase our chances. I was imprisoned here because I stole the fruit and conceived a child with a human. The dragon race has a sliver of bloodline of the divine beast so we can conceive offspring with all living creatures, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth.”

Jing Yue, “So, Dragon Palace doesn't want you to give birth because the bloodline of this fetus isn’t pure? And you want him to acknowledge me as master because you know that the dragon race will not allow him to survive, but he still has a chance if he follows a human?”

The sinned dragon, “Exactly. I protected my dragon fetus with most of my dragon power. They couldn't hurt my child, so they tortured me with all the torture devices here to drain my strength so that I can suffer a miscarriage. Now, I’m very weak and I can feel the life force of the fetus in my womb gradually draining away. If no one comes to my rescue, I'm afraid that the Dragon Palace will get its wish.”

Jing Yue, “Why did you choose me? There are so many humans around, and I’m not the strongest.”

The sinned dragon, “You have the aura of the Dragon Ancestor on you. For the Dragon Ancestor to see you, you must have a relationship. Moreover, your luck is strong. If my dragon fetus follows you, maybe he can have a good home.”

Jing Yue hesitated for a long time before he said, “But if I take the dragon fetus, the Dragon Palace will come after me.”

The sinned dragon, “I’ll fake a miscarriage. As long as the Dragon Ancestor doesn't come, the Dragon Palace won't notice it for a while. Even if they found out, the dragon fetus would have acknowledged you as his master. He belongs to you, plus half of his human bloodline, the Dragon Palace will not acknowledge him, and has no right over him.”

Jing Yue wasn’t really concerned about that, but he did want to save the dragon fetus.

Since Heavenly Dao allowed the offspring of the human race and the dragon race to appear in the world, it would be great merit to keep the dragon fetus alive.

Just like the birth of the demon spawn, the luck of the demonic path flourished not only because of the power of the demon spawn but also because of the reward from the heavens.

In the end, he said, “It's not necessary to recognize me as the master. I’ll find a way to get a body for him. As for the future, it depends on his destiny.”

The sinned dragon's voice is much lighter, even full of surprise. “Thank you, Jing-laozu!”

After that, Jing Yue informed Qin Yanzhi before he turned into a clone and sneaked back to the sinned dragon.

The sinned dragon's golden eyes the size of an adult's fist were full of pleading and gratitude. After a while, a little ball of light was forced out from her body, and a baby with dragon horns could be vaguely seen curled up in the ball of light.

At this point, Jing Yue finally believed in the sinned dragon completely. Obviously, the dragon fetus in her belly was indeed a combination of human and dragon.

Jing Yue was about to keep the ball of light in his Sumeru Ring when he suddenly remembered the blue phoenix in the ring. If Ji-ji found out he had a half-dragon with him…

Jing Yue couldn't help but shudder, suppressed his guilty conscience, and put the ball of light in his pocket for the time being.

The sinned dragon, “There’s no more danger in the Dragon Prison. Further down is the Dragon Labyrinth Formation. After passing through the Dragon Labyrinth Formation, you’ll arrive at the hinterland of the Dragon Tomb.”

Jing Yue, “Thank you.”

A touch of tenderness crossed the sinned dragon's eyes. “I should be the one thanking you. I’ll entrust my child to you, Laozu.”

Jing Yue, “I’ll do my best.”

When Jing Yue returned to the group, he informed Qin Yanzhi about this matter through a voice transmission, but the latter said, “Do you have another son now?”

Jing Yue: ???

Qin Yanzhi, “I’m afraid Ji-ji will kick up a fuss.”

Jing Yue, “L-Let’s deal with it when the time comes.”

After that, as the mother dragon said, they successfully passed through the Dragon Prison and entered the Dragon Labyrinth Formation.

As soon as Jing Yue entered it, he found his reflection everywhere, just like countless mirrors reflecting the projection on other mirrors. If he moved, thousands of his reflections would move at the same time.

Everyone else faced the same predicament. From the projection alone, if someone attacked at this time, it was difficult to judge where the enemy came from and who the target of the attack was.

But when Jing Yue touched the so-called ‘mirror’, he realized that these were just the scales of an illusory dragon, and there were gaps between the scales, forming countless passages. If they could find the correct path through the passages, they could leave the labyrinth.

However, the formation was full of deception and concealment, most suitable for assassination and sneak attacks. He wondered if certain cultivators could hold back.

Since no treasure had been found in Dragon Tomb for the time being, for some people, killing and stealing was not a bad idea.

At this time, Jing Yue felt the position of the dragon scales around him changing, separating him from the others. If Qin Yanzhi had not pulled him in time, the two would have been separated.

Jing Yue, “There are thousands of variations in this formation, plus being a formation of the dragon race, I don’t quite understand it.”

Qin Yanzhi, “It’s fine. As long as you and I don’t get separated, we can walk slowly.”

The two of them clasped hands tightly and moved forward cautiously. In a certain piece of dragon scale out of their sight, several lurking figures could be seen.

A demonic cultivator whispered, “The two of them fell behind.”

Another person said, “Haha, I really didn't expect such an opportunity in the Dragon Tomb. If we can kill those two here, even the murderer cannot be found.”

“That Laozu has a lot of treasures on him, and I heard there’s even a treasure that can disappear out of thin air. We must succeed in one hit and cannot give him a chance to escape.”

“After killing him, the treasures will be ours!”

“If we can get what we want, our trip to the Dragon Tomb will not be in vain. Maybe Sect Leader Han will be overjoyed and let me be an elder, haha.”

Several people looked relaxed, but judging from their tensed bodies, they were clearly on guard and ready to go.

They looked at each other and nodded. One of them identified the direction, looked for the blind spot in Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi’s line of sight, and approached sneakily.

After a while, several people surrounded Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi, but their prey seemed totally unaware.

Several demonic cultivators were secretly delighted, and one said via voice transmission, “Charge!”

But just as he jumped out of his hiding place, he saw a beam of sword light shooting at him. The light was like a sun, dazzling.

At the same time, he heard a rumble of thunder, and then nothing.
