The scene before them was not only grand, but also incredibly tragic!
Thirty-two Saint King powerhouses of the Ancient Demon Race sacrificed their own lives and souls, using ritual magic, to perish together with the Emperor-level Giant Dragon.
They wanted the dragon to accompany the entire city of Demon Race people in its burial!
The people of today have long been away from war.
The last World War of the Celestial Convergence happened more than four thousand years ago.
So it’s hard for people to imagine the dreadful extent of that War of Ten Thousand Races.
The Ancient Demon Race sacrificed millions of their city residents just to exchange for the life of one Emperor-level Giant Dragon.
Such a tragic act!
What happened here is just a small epito of the tens of thousands of years of war history.
The sight Lu Xun and Ding Xuezhu witnessed at this mont, during the war back then, must have been commonplace and not considered a rare spectacle. Including the Human Race, they surely experienced such city massacre calamities back then, even worse battles at tis.
But hearing about it is one thing, witnessing it with one’s own eyes is entirely another experience.
The two were imnsely shaken, their gazes captivated by the scene before them, unable to recover for a long ti.
"...I never expected that these predecessors of the Ancient Demon Race really succeeded in killing the dragon, perishing along with it," Ding Xuezhu sighed with emotion. "The War of Ten Thousand Races is terrifying. I hope in my lifeti, the sixth Celestial Convergence doesn’t occur... Let it co after I’m gone. A hell-like war is far too cruel."
Lu Xun: "..."
The speaker was careless, but the listener was attentive.
Hearing Ding Xuezhu’s words, he suddenly realized that after integrating the Undead Race and Blood Race, these two "Undead Races," into himself... he seems to have already transcended the limits of lifespan.
He has evolved into a brand-new cosmic life form indescribable by words.
Ding Xuezhu might not encounter the War of Ten Thousand Races in her lifeti, although she also has the "Longevity Species" advantage of the Fox-man Race, living several hundred or even a thousand years is no issue, but lifespan is still limited, and she may not live to witness the sixth Celestial Convergence.
But Lu Xun is bound to face it!
One day in the future, he too will be mired in the quagmire of the War of Ten Thousand Races.
Even an Emperor-level Giant Dragon with a body length of two kiloters will be rcilessly crushed by the wheels of war rolling forward.
Thirty-two Saint King-level Demon Race leaders were driven to sacrifice their lives by the enemy... How hopelessly powerless must that feel?
If this ancient Demon Race city were replaced by Jinghai City, where Lu Xun’s family is, would the situation be different?
That’s really hard to say.
The Emperor-level Demon Race City Lord was slain by the dragon.
Jinghai City has only one Emperor cha—Giant Hero.
If history repeats, the ancient Demon Race city before them could very well be the fate of Jinghai City.
Hiss~
Upon realizing this, Lu Xun couldn’t help but shiver, inhaling sharply.
Shit!
He absolutely does not want to be crushed to death by the wheels of war.
In the future, he must cherish every opportunity to beco stronger and strive to improve himself.
If Emperor-level doesn’t cut it, then beco a Catastrophe!
If a Catastrophe is still insufficient, then beco the Dominator, or even a Mythical creature.
In any case, one must broaden their perspective and open their mind.
Prepare for one’s distant future, considering it in advance.
However, the journey must be taken step by step, als must be eaten bite by bite. For now, just simply ascend to King Level!
"This is a Red Dragon, the Fire Demon Essence is too intense, the closer you get to the dragon remains, the higher the temperature, you can’t withstand it."
Lu Xun reached into his pocket, took out Ding Xuezhu, gently placing her on the ground, and instructed, "Stay here, don’t move. I will return shortly."
"Mm-hmm, okay!" The girl nodded obediently, her smile radiant.
She thought this was ticulous concern and care, but actually misunderstood.
Lu Xun rely wanted to keep an eye on her and prevent her from running away.
Once the Strong Soul reaches lv15, he’ll seal her mory.
It wasn’t that Lu Xun was too heartless or unfeeling, distrusting Ding Xuezhu.
Didn’t Old Octopus previously promise to keep it a secret forever? Yet his brain was still dug out by Xu Tanqing’s people... What a bogus secret it was.
Lu Xun won’t fall for the sa trap twice.
First seal the mory.
Once he has thoroughly grown, unafraid of the world’s focus on him, he can then unseal her mory.
This way, it’s good for everyone.
Bang, bang, bang...
Lu Xun turned around, his gaze locked on the dragon remains on the rock wall, stepping forward, his four-ter-two-tall fra slowly approaching, footsteps heavy and muffled.
This was the deepest part of the underground palace, the surroundings eerie and fearso, the dragon’s corpse emitting high temperatures, five-hundred-ter-long rock halberds, thirty-two Demon Race skeletons... especially the ritual magic pattern painted in blood on the ground, extrely sinister.
This place was filled with unknowns, and the unknown induces fear.
Ding Xuezhu watched Lu Xun’s back moving further away, suddenly feeling that the sense of security she had was abruptly withdrawn.
She raised her fox tail, curled her long legs, sitting in a foetal position on the ground, her arms encircling her knees, her little eyes glancing around, her furry ears twitching now and then.
"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, Xiao Lu is not far from , he will protect ..."
She muttered softly to herself, bolstering her courage. Quite uneasy, sowhat in a state of the slightest movent causing a commotion.
At this mont, if Lu Xun were a bit naughty, sending a Skeleton Warrior or Evil Spirit to quietly appear behind her, patting her shoulder... she would probably be scared to tears, crying for quite a while.
**************
Lu Xun wasn’t that an.
All his attention was focused on this Emperor-level Giant Dragon.
