At this moment, Tang Chen's body was already starting to swell slightly.
"It really is as if I spoke it into existence," the Red Dragon King said, letting out a bitter laugh when he saw this.
Hearing this, Xiao Ruier's expression changed a little, and she flickered, appearing right in front of Tang Chen.
She was about to do something, but the Red Dragon King, who was beside her, reached out and stopped her. "His body is currently completely full. If we try to interfere by force, it's very likely to make the absorption fail, and he'll explode right here!"
"Then what should we do?" Xiao Ruier asked with some anxiety after a moment of hesitation. "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let him swallow it directly. We should have refined it into a Medicinal Pill using Heaven And Earth Treasure. After all, the Bloodline Power I gave him was much more than what I just gave Dugu Bo."
Looking at Tang Chen's constantly expanding body, the Red Dragon King frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "What to do? I'm afraid we can only wait and see what happens."
A few more breaths of time passed. Tang Chen's body had expanded as much as it possibly could. Immediately after, tiny blood vessels on his skin slowly burst open, and the overflowing blood instantly covered him, turning him into a terrifying bloody person.
Just as Tang Chen's body was on the verge of exploding, a brilliant blue-gold light suddenly burst forth from his Right Leg Bone, shining like a dazzling star and lighting up the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the darkness.
With the appearance of this blue-gold light, Tang Chen's body, which had been continuously swelling, shook violently, and then miraculously stopped expanding further.
The next moment, waves of extremely strong golden energy, like surging rivers, frantically rushed through the Meridians inside his body. However, this violent energy was quickly guided and suppressed by the blue-gold radiance, gradually blending into Tang Chen's flesh and bones. A large part of it was even directly pulled into his Right Leg Bone, merging into the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone!
Looking at the scene before her, Xiao Ruier stood frozen in place, a look of disbelief flashing in her eyes. She couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Red Dragon King, what... what's going on?"
"This is... a Spirit Bone?" After staring intently at Tang Chen's Right Leg Bone for a moment, the Red Dragon King gasped and said with some surprise, "I didn't expect it. This kid actually has a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone in his body that is completely compatible with him."
"Ordinary human Spirit Masters, even those at the Spirit Saint level, probably wouldn't be able to handle so much of the Bloodline Power you just injected. If it were anyone else, they would have likely exploded and died already. But this kid is different; he has a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone in his body. A Spirit Bone isn't something that actually belongs to the Spirit Master themselves. Strictly speaking, a Spirit Bone is the bone of a Spirit Beast. Moreover, his is a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast Spirit Bone, so it can naturally withstand a bit of the Golden Dragon's and your Bloodline Power."
At this point, the Red Dragon King suddenly narrowed his eyes. He seemed to have remembered something, his expression changed slightly, and he sneered, shaking his head. "Heh, how could I have almost forgotten... This kid has already gone through a secondary Awakening of his Spirit. Strictly speaking, he can no longer be considered a pure human."
"His Blue Silver Emperor Spirit naturally belongs to the Spirit Beast Bloodline, and with the deep fusion of this Spirit Bone, he... should be considered half-beast, or a plant-person, if you prefer! His Physique is naturally far superior to that of ordinary human Spirit Masters, so I was worrying too much."
As the two talked, Tang Chen's tightly closed eyes trembled slightly, then slowly opened. He immediately saw Xiao Ruier and the Red Dragon King in front of him, and then gave a bitter laugh, saying, "What are you two talking about?"
Hearing his voice, Xiao Ruier's beautiful face changed. She quickly took a step forward, carefully examined Tang Chen from head to toe, and asked with a slight hint of worry, "Are... are you alright?"
Hearing this, Tang Chen took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and simply stretched his stiff body. Then he shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
As he spoke, he raised his right hand. A stalk of Blue Silver Grass, completely different from before, appeared in his palm. This stalk of Blue Silver Grass glowed with a warm blue-gold light, and Golden Dragon patterns faintly flowed within its leaf veins, like tiny true Dragons hiding inside.
"My... my Blue Silver Grass seems to have evolved again. But I don't know what new abilities it has gained yet," Tang Chen whispered, an unconcealable look of surprise flashing in his eyes as he stared at the Blue Silver Grass in his palm.
As he spoke, he immediately pulled the Blue Silver Grass back into his body, then turned his gaze to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well beside him. "Forget it, I'll go down first and get those two Dragon Medicinal Pills."
However, just as Tang Chen was about to leap into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Xiao Ruier suddenly raised her hand to stop him, and at the same time, handed him the golden dragon spear she was holding.
"Take this with you; you might need it down there. The golden dragon spear is formed from the ribs of the Golden Dragon King. In terms of status within the Dragon Clan, the Golden Dragon King is far above the two great Dragon Kings of Ice and Fire. In the past, you didn't have the Bloodline of the Golden Dragon inside you, so you naturally couldn't use the golden dragon spear. But now... it's different."
With that, she firmly placed the golden dragon spear into Tang Chen's hand.
Looking down at the dazzling golden golden dragon spear in his hand, Tang Chen's palm tightened around the shaft, and a warmth inexplicably rose in his heart. He took a deep breath and nodded seriously.
The next second, he immediately turned around, and like a blue stream of light, he plunged headfirst into the churning surface of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where crimson and azure waters mixed.
With a splash, a moderate amount of water sprayed up. The blue-gold figure instantly disappeared into the place where extreme cold and heat met...
The Star Dou Great Forest, a place of great danger!
The first thing that came into view was a lush green lake. The lake water was as smooth as a mirror, like a beautiful natural jade, and around the lake, ancient trees reached high into the sky. At the same time, a faint mist floated on the lake surface. The abundance of life here was at least several times greater than the outside world.
"Beiji, what did you say? The Red Dragon King also disappeared without a trace after going to the human world?" Hearing this news, Di Tian immediately frowned, his face full of disbelief.
"Hmm," Beiji said after a moment of silence, nodding. "Di Tian, do you think they might have..."
Di Tian's eyes suddenly brightened, and the luminous golden light radiated a daunting power. He said, "Probably not. If anything happened to the Auspicious Beast, I would be able to sense it."
"Then why haven't they returned yet?" Beiji became even more confused.
Di Tian said with some sadness, "Could it be that the Red Dragon King also became obsessed with the human world and doesn't want to come back? No, I must go to the human world."
"To see exactly what's going on?!"
