Chapter 1705: Myriad Dragons Necropolis
Five days later, the Ten Thousand Dragons' Ancestral Blood Rites started. The entire Dragons' Domain was a flurry of boisterous festivities, and the heavens and earth were filled with excited roars.
Countless dragons soared across the sky, headed towards the Myriad Dragons Necropolis, the final resting point of the Dragon Race. Whenever a dragon felt that their lifespan was about to end, they would make their way there, to dig out a cave, and bury themselves in it. After countless generations, the Myriad Dragons Necropolis had accumulated innumerous dragon skeletons.
Li Luo, Li Tianji, and Lin Miao were led to the Myriad Dragons Necropolis by Li Hongyou. As they looked around, the place felt very gloomy. Several mountains that stood far apart from one another protruded from the ground like gravestones. The countless experts of the Dragon Race were constantly rushing over as their roars filled the air, turning the location lively.
"Is this where the blood rites will take place?" Li Luo curiously asked. As soon as he arrived, the Heavenly Dragon bloodline within him started to stir.
"This is just the perimeter. When the blood rites begin, the entire area will be submerged in something called 'dragon blood.' It isn't real dragon's blood, but something created from the fusion of the buried dragons' bones, their blood, and worldly natural energy. The blood normally lies dormant at the bottom of the necropolis and can only be awakened through a special ritual. The deeper you go, the greater the chances of Ancestral Blood condensing," Li Hongyou explained.
As they spoke, a heaven-shaking roar rumbled through the sky. At the next moment, the boundless Heavenly Dragon might have swept past like a storm. The experts who felt the draconic might became serious and lowered their heads in respect.
A violet-gold light streaked across the sky and landed on the highest mountain in the outer region of the Myriad Dragons Necropolis. A tall, well-proportioned, and moving figure appeared. It was none other than the Chieftain Zhen Linshuang. She was followed by several extraordinary figures who landed behind her.
One of them was Grand Elder Ao Yan. There was also a middle-aged man whose crimson hair resembled dancing flames and a golden-eyed elderly man.
"That is the Scarlet Dragon tribe's Chief, Lu Song, and the Golden Dragon tribe's Chief, Jin Zhang. They are Triple Crowned Kings, and they will do their best to protect Chieftain Zheng and ensure she enters the third layer to obtain Ancestral Blood," Li Hongyou explained.
Li Luo nodded. These were the four peak powerhouses of the Dragon Race. One was a Supreme Triple Crowned King, another was an ordinary peak Triple Crowned King, and the other two were ordinary Triple Crowned Kings as well. Other than these four, he could sense that there were over twenty more Kings present. Ordinary Heavenly Emperor powers had nowhere near as many high-level experts as the Dragon Race. The title of the emperor of spirit beasts was not unfounded.
