Chapter 971 - 382: Divine Trace Lineage·Corpse Dragon Queen_3
"What do you mean by that?"
Although Ye Hanjun had mastered many secrets from the Ancient Era, being new to the area, he definitely did not understand the current situation of the West Sea as clearly as Xiahou Danxin did.
Xiahou Danxin snorted and spoke directly,
"Among the four great Divine Trace Lineages of the West Sea, the ’Shadow Water Mother’ and the ’Sky Blue Whale’ are the strongest, each said to have a False God in residence."
"The ’Hei Xuanwu Saint Turtle’ is the most unique because they actually don’t have an Ancestor Divine Enthronement, but they benefit from Hei Xuanwu. They are wild beast groups that resulted from Hei Xuanwu’s failed breeding attempts, and since they merged with part of Xuanwu’s divinity, being called a Divine Trace Lineage makes sense."
"The only remaining one is the Corpse Dragon Queen lineage, which in both population and overall strength, has severely declined from the past."
"They managed to survive the Broken Era Calamity; ninety percent of the credit goes to Hei Xuanwu."
"As for the remaining ten percent, it’s due to their ruthless nature, sacrificing a large number of their able-bodied clan members in exchange for the survival of their young."
"Even so, in this old man’s view, after at most three generations, the divinity in their bloodline will completely disappear."
Xiahou Danxin glanced at Ye Hanjun and paused abruptly, suddenly seeming somewhat gleeful,
"You should know, shouldn’t you? The Corpse Dragon Queen’s way of maturing."
"They specifically hunt dragons, or steal dragon carcasses, from which they extract the residual bloodline and infuse it into themselves for their own use."
"This cultivation method has its pros and cons. The advantage is that each individual’s form and ability will have significant variations, with a potential ceiling far surpassing that of their same rank species."
"The downside is that their race is increasingly decrepit, and as they have not gained access to Divine dragon carcasses, solely drawing from saintly dragon corpses only leads to an increasingly chaotic and weakened bloodline."
"I don’t know if it’s you who has plans, or the little girl beside you."
"Either way, if you wish to enter into a contract with this lineage, you need to consider carefully whether you can secure the carcasses of dragon Divine Trace Lineages."
"Moreover, the Corpse Dragon Queen lineage suppresses the dragon race, and without Hei Xuanwu’s protection, divine dragons remain hidden while saintly dragons would band together to annihilate them."
"Rashly provoking them, and inadvertently bearing these consequences, even if you are also from the Divine Clan, weigh it carefully in your hearts whether it is worth it or not."
"Thank you, senior, for your frank words."
Unconsciously, Ye Hanjun had changed his form of address.
The information mentioned by Xiahou Danxin was extremely important.
The plight of the Corpse Dragon Queen’s lineage might be even more dire than that of the San Zhou Ghost Monk.
The day they lose the protective umbrella of Hei Xuanwu, they would probably become the dragon race’s public enemy, collectively strategized against and possibly destroyed in a single day.
"To go or not to go?"
Ye Liuying’s eyes flicked over, also showing clear hesitation.
There’s a saying that having many lice does not itch, and having many debts does not worry; the Ye Clan already indeed had numerous potential enemies.
But to not consider the consequences at all, and risk being the last straw that broke the camel’s back, would turn them into criminals of their clan, and they could not forgive themselves.
"Let’s go take a look first."
Ye Hanjun decided,
"Going there doesn’t guarantee success."
"This is a decision led by both parties. Acting according to circumstances is the best policy."
"Good!"
Ye Liuying nodded, swept away the hesitation, no longer looking back.
"Hey, are we really going?"
"Suddenly, I’ve realized there’s a very serious issue!"
Xiahou Danxin widened his eyes and exclaimed impatiently,
"What if you die out there? Without bringing back the Chimera, you’ll all end up in Hell, what am I supposed to do then?"
"Senior, that is the one thing we cannot guarantee,"
Ye Hanjun shook his head, speaking gravely,
"But we do not want to die, of that we can be absolutely certain."
"For a higher rank, for more efficient growth in the same amount of time, we must take risks, as we always have."
"Phew!"
Xiahou Danxin took a deep breath, sharply closed his eyes, turned around, and waved his hand to hurry them along,
"Fine, fine, just don’t disappoint this old man!"
"You’ve caused enough trouble here, hurry up and leave, don’t disturb this old man’s experiments anymore!"
"Ling Er, see them off! Take them to the underwater station!"
"Click!"
The gaze of the Mechanism Gazelle King, dim before, lit up once again.
It leapt past Ye Hanjun and Ye Liuying, Mu Shoucong, squatting down to invite them onto its back.
"Old man, goodbye!"
The polite GuaGua waved farewell last.
"Old man, goodbye!"
Mo imitated him, swaying his tentacles as he repeated the words.
...
After recovering Lan Qixiong, they left the Mechanism base through an internal passage.
The Mechanism Gazelle King erected a water-driving barrier, running effortlessly in the sea as if treading on land.
The wandering jellyfish seemed unable to see it, feeling only the swift water currents pass by, forced back hundreds of meters before confusingly seeking a new direction.
"Whirr!"
"Whirr!!"
About three days into the run, the Mechanism Gazelle King stopped.
A huge piece of coral rock, fixed oddly in the depths of the sea neither floating upward nor sinking, seemed as though an invisible palm held it, appearing quite extraordinary.
"This is... one of the West Sea waiting stations."
"Providing adequate Spiritual Treasure, both humans and beasts may ride."
"With a secret charm, you can even enjoy premium services, with no charge for the ride, designated seats, and much lower risk than traveling freely... safety guaranteed..."
Having dropped a few words, the Mechanism Gazelle King slightly bowed, kicked off, and left in the manner it had come.
GuaGua waved at it, then eagerly inspected the coral rock, occasionally looking around in every direction, searching for the so-called "Undersea Passenger Vehicle."
