46: Dragon Breeding Program

“The two parts severed by the Asura Sword Slash transformed into two giant Dragons. One had rhomboid and oval golden scales, inheriting the Dragon God’s physical strength and the main body’s offense and defense. The other, the Silver Dragon King, had silver scales, inheriting the Dragon God’s wisdom and elemental control abilities.”

As she spoke, Gu Yue projected the forms of the two giant Dragons onto the enormous holographic screen behind her using her Mental Energy.

“So, you are the Silver Dragon King.” Shen Guyan finally understood why Gu Yue had sought him out. It turned out she possessed such an identity.

Wasn't that terrifying elemental control ability precisely what the Silver Dragon King, as she described, possessed?

Good heavens, this wasn't a 100,000-year Spirit Beast cultivating to transform; it was clearly a million-year Spirit Beast—no, a Divine Beast transforming!

“I am… not entirely. But you can certainly consider me a Silver Dragon,” Gu Yue said with a mysterious smile.

What did that mean? Shen Guyan was utterly bewildered.

A trace of sorrow flashed in Gu Yue’s eyes. “The human deities completely expelled the Beast Gods from the Divine Realm. The whereabouts of the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King, who were Incarnations of the Dragon God, became unknown. Since then, there have been no more beast deities in the Divine Realm. All beasts qualified to Ascend to the Divine Realm were suppressed in the Lower Realm, unable to Ascend.”

“So, Spirit Beasts ended up being the complete victims after that war,” Shen Guyan said, frowning deeply, a thoughtful expression on his face.

He believed half of what Gu Yue said, because there must have been other reasons. According to Gu Yue's description, the Dragon God was a bit too powerful.

Such a powerful Dragon God, with nine Great Dragon Kings under its command who could each control a territory, their strength must also have been at the so-called God King level. Including the Dragon God itself, that would be at least ten God Kings. How could they have lost to five human God Kings?

As the saying goes, no matter how you look at it, ten versus five, the advantage is with me!

A hint of coldness appeared at the corner of Gu Yue’s mouth. “This is human nature. Isn’t the saying, ‘Those not of our race are sure to be of a different mind,’ created by humans?”

“However, don’t forget that two millennia ago, humans on this continent were always the weaker party, and Spirit Beasts always treated humans as food,” Shen Guyan snorted. “Now humans have mastered tools and improved productivity and equipment. To quote another ancient saying, the Heavenly Dao has Reincarnation, who can Heaven spare!”

“Hmph, you should worry about your own safety first,” Gu Yue said noncommittally, also letting out a cold snort.

“Me?” Shen Guyan merely chuckled. “Sorry, I’ve always disliked being threatened. My original intention in coming to this foreign World was to live life as I please, not to get involved in others’ grievances and affections.”

“Unfortunately, you have no choice,” Gu Yue’s tone was cold, devoid of any emotion.

Shen Guyan watched Gu Yue walk towards him step by step, and couldn’t help but ask, “So, you brought me here to use what you call the Azure Dragon projection on me?”

Even now, Shen Guyan didn’t understand how his mere Spirit Master’s Spirit could help these Spirit Beast kings.

“Of course it’s useful…” Gu Yue’s originally dark eyes reflected dazzling purple light. “Tens of thousands of Dragon Clan members share the Azure Dragon Bloodline. We will cultivate you and regularly use your Bloodline to cultivate new Dragon Clan members…”

“Cultivate… new Dragon Clan members?” Shen Guyan’s heart trembled. He never expected that the other party’s goal would be this!

“Even if we kill all existing humans, our people will not be resurrected… The Origin of Spirit Beasts on the Douluo Continent was due to the Silver Dragon King’s energy influence after that war, causing many animals to mutate and become Spirit Beasts, possessing Soul Power. But very few truly evolved into True Dragons.” As Gu Yue spoke, her entire delicate body trembled slightly.

“The reason is simple: most living beings born on the continent do not possess the Dragon Clan’s Bloodline, or rather, they have no connection to the Dragon Clan whatsoever…”

“Then what we need to do is simple…”

“We will use your Spirit aura, and even your Bloodline, combined with the Silver Dragon King’s energy, to continuously cultivate species, even if it takes tens of thousands of years… until the Dragon Clan reappears in this World!”

“What did you say?” Listening to Gu Yue’s words, even Shen Guyan couldn’t remain calm.

To re-cultivate the Dragon Clan, to make the Dragon Clan species descend upon the World again—was this the true purpose of these Spirit Beast kings?

“There are two Azure Dragons on Douluo Star now, but the Bloodline of the other one evolved through transformation after Ascension, and is not as pure as the original Divine Beast aura in you…” Gu Yue seemed to recall something and smiled, “So, we took a fancy to you…”

“Don’t worry, we will cultivate you into the strongest Spirit Master on the future Douluo Continent, and we have many ways to ensure you pass on this Spirit. You will be stronger and live longer than any other Spirit Master…”

“The price for that is complete control over your body and mind, isn’t it?” Shen Guyan’s expression calmed down. Since the other party dared to openly tell him these plans, it meant they were absolutely confident in controlling him now.

“Naturally, our plan cannot fail. Besides, we have also found the other half of the Dragon God, the Golden Dragon King. When the Dragon God returns, how can there be no people belonging to it in the World?”

“Golden Dragon King? The Golden Dragon lineage is indeed in the Star Dou Core Zone?” Shen Guyan couldn’t help but recall the story Leng Yaozhu told about the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the creator of the fleeting Golden Dragon Spirit in the great competition ten thousand years ago during the sunless eclipse.

If the Golden Dragon King also appeared on this continent, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for humanity!

To his surprise, Gu Yue shook her head.

“Do you know? The former Dragon God once led the Divine Beast army in the Divine Realm to attack all deities. While it was certainly due to the incompatibility between your human-centric deities and the Divine Beast lineage, there were also some reasons due to the Dragon God itself.” Gu Yue seemed very patient, taking the initiative to explain to Shen Guyan.

“When the Dragon God became a god, it also had its own divine position. The divine power it controlled was the power of destruction and creation. This is the most fundamental and core power in the Universe. It was by a stroke of Opportunity that the Dragon God came into contact with some of it. Although the influence of the divine power it received was relatively small, it was, after all, the core power of the Universe.”

“That’s why it was so powerful. In fact, in a certain sense, the Dragon God’s individual combat power was stronger than any of the five Great God Kings in the Divine Realm at that time.” Gu Yue said, a hint of pride in her voice.
