Chapter 2: The Ancestor Dragon Ring
On that ancestral dragon ring, the dragon-shaped pattern strangely moved. Under the infusion of blood, the two dragon-shaped bodies opened their eyes, their crimson gaze sweeping over Yang Tian.
So powerful! Like a tsunami roaring, Yang Tian's eyes brimmed with heat; this is what it means to be strong! The bloodlust is terrifying, as if it could obliterate heaven and earth.
Yang Tian roared, like an enraged bull bellowing. He furiously attacked the stars ahead, determined to shake them. This particular star seemed to represent the Dragon Yang Emperor. Yang Tian appeared almost mad, intent on obliterating the Dragon Yang Emperor.
Roar! The giant suddenly let out a long howl towards the sky, and a rumbling sound echoed through the heavens and the earth, resembling a divine sound from beyond the realm. The roar shook the world, shattering the firmament, and the stars exploded in a dazzling display. Terrifying gusts of wind swept across the horizon, creating a scene of utter destruction.
Yang Tian felt as if his mind was about to explode, with countless memories flashing continuously in his head. In the region of his consciousness, rows of golden characters were imprinted within. As his gaze moved, the depths of his consciousness were filled with dense and intricate characters of "war"
"Zhan Tian Jue", what level of martial arts is this?
He remained sitting in the rattan chair in a daze until the moment when dawn was about to break, and Yang Tian's eyes gradually regained their luster
For a moment of confusion, Yang Tian finally realized that he was actually standing in the void! Around him, the stars flickered, emitting brilliant divine light
Are the bones of my kin buried and documented? Did my parents survive? Was my elder brother captured while away? Can I take revenge on my enemies? Countless questions roared in his heart, and the martial arts he practiced gradually deviated from their intended path. With each self-questioning, he found no one to provide him with answers
Seeing this, Yang Tian furrowed his brows tightly and murmured softly: "The Ancestor Dragon Ring requires a bloodline density of 20% to activate. Even my father has not reached 20%. I wonder if I am sufficient?"
At this moment, the two-headed blood-red dragon slowly shifted its body, spiraling in the air, its surrounding crimson glow dazzling to the extreme, resembling a great sun as it dove toward the unconscious Yang Tian's head
As blood continued to gush forth, Yang Tian's complexion gradually turned pale, a sense of weakness relentlessly assailing his mind. His eyelids trembled slightly, yet deep within his gaze lay a terrifying determination.
In the room, Yang Tian lay in bed, his pale face looking exceptionally unwell due to excessive blood loss. On the bedside, there was a bowl of steaming medicine.
War, war, war
Puff puff
Boom!
A faint sound echoed beneath the desk, and at that moment, a chilling gleam flashed by as a gleaming steel knife appeared in Yang Tian's hand
He seized the knife in his hand and drew it across his arm
The giant seemed to have noticed Yang Tian's arrival; its eyes opened and closed, and its entire body suddenly trembled, causing the heavens to crack open.
He once again raised the long knife in his hand, the wound from which blood continuously flowed began to widen, revealing the eerie sight of bones and books.
Boom, boom, boom! Suddenly, his towering body moved. He stepped into the void, and the blood energy within him surged like a vast ocean. The terrifying blood energy hung above him like an inverted river.
His body resembled an eternal divine furnace, both terrifying and awe-inspiring, with eyes that contained the sinking of the sun and moon, the obliteration of the galaxy, as if embodying an entire world, profoundly chilling
Father, the child is now sixteen years old. Whether I can activate the Ancestral Dragon Ring and obtain the cultivation method depends on my own fortune. If I cannot..." After a moment of silence, Yang Tian slowly stood up, having mustered the courage in his heart
The giant struck a punch, causing the heavens and the earth to tremble, as if a great star had fallen, plunging the starry sky into chaos, and countless stars suddenly exploded! A resounding sound echoed through the universe!
At this moment, the scalding blood had just flowed onto the Ancestral Dragon Ring, only to be mysteriously absorbed by it, while the pitch-black ring showed no signs of change
Roar
Martial arts are exceptionally important on this continent, as they determine the speed of cultivation. Some individuals may spend their entire lives practicing human-level martial arts, and without any extraordinary opportunities, they are likely to remain at the Blood Refinement stage for their entire lives
The giant stands beneath the firmament, his feet treading upon the void. He resembles a deity, eternal and unchanging, exuding an extraordinary aura. His entire being radiates boundless majesty as he gazes down upon the multitude, his divine presence astonishing the world.
I... unexpectedly recognized the ancestral dragon ring, and it has accepted me as its master
Above the character "war," the ancestral dragon ring was strangely suspended in the center of the sea of consciousness
Sing
He suddenly roared in his heart, Yang Tian bit his tongue, forcing himself to wake up. Without extraordinary martial arts, the path to revenge in the future would undoubtedly be extremely difficult
Yang Tian appeared dazed, and before him stood a giant towering ten thousand feet high! Its entire body was a bronze color, with legs that stood like celestial pillars in the air, resembling a divine column reaching to the heavens. Its feet resembled a massive mountain range, majestic and towering, making it utterly unattainable.
As blood was shed, over the passage of time, the dragon pattern on the Ancestor Dragon Ring suddenly emitted a strange red glow. With the continuous flow of blood, the red light on the Ancestor Dragon Ring grew increasingly intense, resembling a blazing furnace
Who is this ... ... ?
My head hurts a lot
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in Yang Tian's ears, leaving him in a daze. It felt as if the world around him was shifting dramatically, and Yang Tian sensed that this realm had changed.
The next day
Blood gushed forth, and excruciating pain surged. Yang Tian's somewhat youthful complexion showed no signs of change. He took a deep breath, his gaze shifting to the Ancestral Dragon Ring
Upon seeing this, Yang Tian's nearly unconscious eyes suddenly widened, and he smiled with joy. However, unable to withstand the onslaught of weakness, he collapsed to the ground
This ring, named the Ancestral Dragon Ring, is the token of the patriarchs of the Yang family. When Yang Tian was sent into the void passage, his father entrusted the Ancestral Dragon Ring to him
Battle! Blood coursing through his body, Yang Tian unexpectedly followed the giant in practicing boxing techniques. His fists struck faster and faster, the faint and ethereal blood energy surging continuously. Under the guidance of this invincible intent, faint sounds of battle emerged.
If an invincible hero were to emerge now, it would undoubtedly shake the entire continent. For the invincible will to grow, it must stain the entire continent with blood, forging an unparalleled stance at the same level
He almost succumbed to madness just now, as the giant exhaled a beam of deep blue light, which instantly shattered countless voids and penetrated Yang Tian's head. At the same time, Yang Tian's body dissipated into the void.
In the house, Yang Tian gazed at the ring before him, where two pitch-black light spots were moving. This was a trace of soul energy; if these two traces of soul energy were to disappear, it would mean that something had happened to his parents.
Clang
The giant before him seemed poised to conquer the entire world, and Yang Tian could sense an invincible aura emanating from the giant's body. This giant must have been an unparalleled hero in his youth.
The man's visage was shrouded in a blaze of divine radiance, obscuring his true appearance; however, the overwhelming pressure emanating from him made it impossible to gaze directly, compelling one to look up in reverence
Is he an ancestor? Yang Tianxin was shaken, and he too found it hard to believe. The might of the giant exceeded his imagination, and the concept of invincibility had not emerged for tens of thousands of years
He seems to be pushing against a mountain, striking the void ahead with powerful punches. The invincible force of his fists collapses everything, and where his fists strike, chaotic light bursts forth, causing stars to continuously extinguish. Remarkably, he is able to pierce through countless voids with his bare hands
The giant's black hair danced wildly, as the blood energy of the heavens surged like a roaring tsunami, crashing against the sky and earth, splitting the universe apart. The blinding crimson light illuminated this space, and under the onslaught of the blood energy, the surrounding void began to shatter
The surging blood energy continuously erupts, countless voids shatter, its momentum akin to crashing waves, breaking through the heavens and striking across the nine skies above
Boom
The roar suddenly erupted, its sound piercing through to Yang Tian's very soul, awakening his nearly lost spirit in an instant. He widened his eyes, staring at the giant before him, as cold sweat instantly filled his forehead.
Suddenly, the giant raised his brows, and with a mighty swing of his mountain-like fist, golden blood surged into the sky, radiating divine light that pierced through heaven and earth, breaking through the very fabric of the universe.
Not enough!
In a haze, waves of determination urged him to open his eyes
Puff puff
The aura of unparalleled supremacy is ascending, causing the entire universe to tremble; his cultivation reaches the heavens and the earth. Yang Tian's mind is shaken, as this overwhelming and tyrannical presence continues to expand, rendering the surrounding stars dim and lifeless, as if even this expanse of heaven and earth is merely a backdrop.
The terrifying giant looms ominously, its overwhelming divine light spreading far beyond comprehension. In the distant realm that Yang Tian cannot fathom, a colossal fist emerges in the void, representing a fearsome annihilation that pierces through an entire star domain in an instant
In the realm of cultivation, martial arts are classified into four levels: Human, Profound, Star, and Heavenly. Yang Tian practices a high-level Profound martial art: the Liuli Baoyan Jue. This is a family heirloom technique passed down through generations.
