Chapter 3861: A Tradition of Not So Bright Minds
A million divine dragons danced wildly, a grand spectacle.
But to those used to such scenes, it failed to impress. Lin Moyu spoke loudly: "Ancestral Dragon, why be so flustered? You're not just one step away and the path you've chosen for resurrection is likely the wrong one."
There was a hint of mockery in Lin Moyu's tone. He clearly looked down on, and even despised, the Ancestral Dragon's approach.
The Ancestral Dragon's hoarse voice echoed: "Who are you? Why are you interfering in the affairs of our dragon clan?"
Lin Moyu replied, "It wasn't my business, but your dragon clan provoked me, so I had to come. Besides, I'm interested in the Dragon God Tree, so I figured I'd clean things up while I'm here.
"To think, you, a dignified Ancestral Dragon, Dao Lord of the Yang Dragon Great Dao, would go so far as to devour the souls of your own kin just to survive.
"When I entered the dragon tomb years ago, your descendants still revered you, hoping you'd one day return to the world.
"Can you tell me why you did all this?"
The Ancestral Dragon answered in a low voice, "You've entered the dragon tomb? You're from the Origin Continent."
Suddenly, his voice sharpened: "No, if you entered the dragon tomb, why aren't you cursed?"
The Ancestral Dragon was clearly very wary of the curse, even sounding a bit fearful.
Lin Moyu said, "The curse you speak of polluted many dragon corpses in the tomb, but it didn't spread any further."
Lin Moyu had paid attention to the curse in the dragon tomb. It did exist, but its spread was limited. Once a certain number of corpses were polluted, the curse stopped expanding. Now that most of the mutated dragon corpses had been cleared out, the curse seemed to have ended as well. Also, there were only corpses below the Great Dao Realm in the tomb none above that level.
The Ancestral Dragon's voice came again: "How could this be, why is it like this? Did I miscalculate? That shouldn't be!"
His voice was full of doubt, as if questioning himself.
Lin Moyu's eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Back then, when you split the dragon tomb in two, was it because you couldn't bear to part with the corpses above the Great Dao Realm?"
"Of course, those are treasures, they can help " The Ancestral Dragon abruptly stopped, realizing Lin Moyu was tricking him into talking.
It was clear: the dragon clan's lack of cleverness was a tradition.
Lin Moyu and the World Sealing Dao Lord couldn't help but glance at Antares.
Antares snorted, "What's it got to do with me? I'm separated by who knows how many generations."
Lin Moyu chuckled and continued, "Back then, after you returned cursed, knowing the curse was unsolvable, you split the dragon tomb before it could taint your soul.
"You left your body in the tomb with the lower realm dragons, letting the curse spread there.
"You abandoned your body, devoured the tomb of the higher realm dragons with your soul, and hid in the Dragon God Tree, hoping to one day rebuild your body and revive.
"Your body is different from us cultivators it was born from the Solar Origin, so rebuilding it isn't easy.
"You didn't just devour the dragon corpses in the tomb you also consumed the self buried Dragon Gods here, but even that wasn't enough.
"You secretly placed restrictions on every divine dragon above the Great Dao Realm, so you could control them when needed.
"I'm afraid over the years, you've secretly killed and devoured quite a few divine dragons, haven't you?"
Everything Lin Moyu said was speculation, with no evidence.
But from any perspective, it all made sense.
After hearing Lin Moyu, the million divine dragons swirling in the sky suddenly stopped. A million giant jaws opened, and they roared in unison: "Who are you, how do you know all this?!"
The roar was deafening. Lin Moyu only responded with a cold laugh: "Looks like I was right."
The World Sealing Dao Lord gave a thumbs up: "Impressive, you figured all that out. Anyone who crosses you is truly out of luck."
Antares snorted, "Exactly. This kid's mind is so devious, it could hold the whole world sea."
Lin Moyu ignored them. "Alright, I'll give you a chance: tell me everything that happened in the wasteland, leave the Dragon God Tree, and split half your soul for me to control. I'll let you go and even help you rebuild your body."
"Bullshit! I'll eat you!" The Ancestral Dragon roared, and a million divine dragons charged at Lin Moyu.
With his status, how could he possibly accept Lin Moyu's terms?
Of course, Lin Moyu knew he'd refuse. If he agreed, he wouldn't be the Ancestral Dragon he'd be a worm.
The dragon clan's lack of cleverness and pride all started with him.
As a million dragons charged, Lin Moyu simply snapped his fingers.
In an instant, the undead legion surged forth like a tidal wave, outnumbering the dragons ten thousand to one and smashing them back.
These dragons were all formed from branches of the Dragon God Tree, each with the power of a first tier innate soul Great Dao Realm, matching the undead legion. But in sheer numbers, the undead legion was overwhelming.
A battle formation of over ten billion undead easily repelled the million divine dragons.
The Ancestral Dragon roared in fury, and the Dragon God Crown appeared, shining in the void.
The defeated dragons regrouped, merging ten into one turning a million into a hundred thousand.
The numbers dropped tenfold, but their power increased more than tenfold. All hundred thousand dragons now reached the Dao Lord level.
A hundred thousand Dao Lords no place on the Origin Continent could muster even a tenth of that. But these were creations of the Dragon God Tree they couldn't leave its range.
The Scarlet Blood Dao Spirit appeared on Lin Moyu's shoulder, unleashing a crimson tide that enveloped the Ancestral Dragon Sacrificial Ground.
The newly formed hundred thousand Dao Lord dragons had their auras plummet, dropping back to first tier innate soul.
Lin Moyu said calmly, "Don't bother struggling, it's useless. If you were sure you could kill me, you'd have done it already, not talked so much."
"I'll count to ten. My offer still stands. If you refuse, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Lin Moyu began to count. The Ancestral Dragon roared, "Die!"
The Dragon God Crown shone even brighter. In the light, lines of divine dragons appeared.
These dragons were extremely powerful each had the aura of a Dao Lord, but stronger than those created by the Dragon God Tree.
It was the difference between branch Dao Lords and Origin Dao Lords.
Antares shouted, "Those are the past Dragon Gods!"
Each Dragon God was the strongest of their era. Even though they were first tier innate soul Great Dao Realm, they were stronger than almost all others at that level some could even beat branch Dao Lords. With the Dragon God Crown, they were stronger than ordinary Origin Dao Lords.
The Dragon God Crown summoned the souls of past Dragon Gods. Each one opened its mouth and spat out a dragon pearl.
At the same time, the Dragon God Tree split open, also spitting out dragon pearls.
The Ancestral Dragon had the most thirty six pearls.
The other Dragon Gods had between twenty four and twenty eight.
Among dragons, the number of dragon pearls is a mark of strength.
Antares once had only sixteen, but after receiving one from the Dragon God, and condensing more himself, he now had twenty two.
The dragon pearls buzzed in the air, and the ones inside Antares began to resonate, trying to fly out of his body.
Antares was in agony. Lin Moyu, sensing this, took out a dragon pearl the one Lin Mohan had given Antares.
