Within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor, there was only a silent stillness. A long time passed before a voice finally emerged: "You could say yes, and you could also say no."
Yes, or no?
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, about to inquire further, but the presence within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor spoke again: "Young friend, I wonder if you could send that crimson-gold cocoon of light from within your great cauldron over here."
"No!"
Without a second thought, Ye Chen refused.
What a joke. The crimson-gold cocoon of light contained Little Dot, with whom he had established a soul connection. How could he hand it over so easily?
"Brat, how dare you refuse when the master speaks—" The Dragon Tomb Will began to speak, but the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body beside Ye Chen stared at it coldly. A terrifying aura permeated the air, like the gaze of death itself, instilling a sense of mortal danger that choked off the Dragon Tomb Will's remaining words.
From within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor, the mysterious presence spoke slowly: "You need not worry excessively. To be more precise, I share a certain connection with the little life within that crimson-gold cocoon of light. I will not harm it."
Ye Chen stood side-by-side with his Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, speaking coldly: "Why should I believe you?"
"You don't have to believe me. Ask it if it is willing to believe." The mysterious presence pointed towards the crimson-gold cocoon of light within the Chaos Great Cauldron.
"What if you used some method to lure it over?" Ye Chen questioned.
The mysterious presence replied: "Then you'll have to ask it yourself."
Hearing this, Ye Chen fell silent for a moment. After all, he had established a soul connection with Little Dot. Even though Little Dot seemed to be in a slumber, a vague consciousness still existed.
In the end, he still sent an inquiry towards the crimson-gold cocoon of light, asking if it was willing to go.
Not long after, a vague piece of information was fed back. Little Dot, in its slumber, reacted, indicating its willingness.
Seeing this, Ye Chen no longer prevented it. He opened the Chaos Great Cauldron, allowing the crimson-gold cocoon of light to fly out. His Great Emperor Reincarnation Body remained fixed on the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor, its voice icy: "If I discover you doing anything unfavorable to Little Dot, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"You can rest assured on that point. I guarantee I will not harm it in the slightest," the mysterious presence responded.
However, Ye Chen remained deeply concerned and had his Great Emperor Reincarnation Body follow it inside.
The Dragon Tomb Will was initially furious at Ye Chen's actions, as the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor was not to be desecrated, but it was stopped by the mysterious presence, allowing Ye Chen's Great Emperor Reincarnation Body to enter.
Within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor existed another vast, empty space, also spanning roughly ten thousand li in radius. Yet, it was not particularly spacious; on the contrary, it appeared quite crowded.
For within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body beheld a Crimson Scale Giant Dragon of unimaginable size. It was far larger than Gu Jiuhua; saying it was ten thousand li long was no exaggeration. Moreover, one must remember this was within the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain under Emperor Dao suppression. If viewed in the outside world without such suppression, its size would likely be even more exaggerated.
The Crimson Scale Giant Dragon coiled within the Tomb of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor, its colossal draconic body completely filling every inch of space, appearing magnificent. A massive dragon head hovered in the air, terrifying to behold, its entire form permeated by a fearsome pressure.
Even the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body felt a faint sense of oppression, allowing one to imagine the terrifying nature of this Crimson Scale Giant Dragon.
However, Ye Chen's other Chaos Saint Soul avatar was also within the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, possessing equally sharp senses. He clearly perceived that while this Crimson Scale Giant Dragon radiated a terrifying dragon might, he simultaneously sensed another strong aura emanating from it.
This aura was none other than an aura of death, as if this Crimson Scale Giant Dragon had long since perished, its body grown cold, eerily reminiscent of a corpse rising in the mortal world.
Indeed, this Crimson Scale Giant Dragon was peculiar.
The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body stared quietly at the other party, not uttering a word.
The Crimson Scale Giant Dragon paid little mind to this. At this moment, the crimson-gold cocoon of light slowly descended before it, its entire form erupting with fiery crimson-gold radiance. From a distance, it resembled a crimson-gold sun, emitting unparalleled crimson-gold light.
Simultaneously, the Crimson Scale Giant Dragon lowered its head to look at this crimson-gold cocoon of light, nodding slightly. Its massive dragon eyes contained endless deathly stillness, yet also a trace of doubt. It spoke softly: "Just who are you? Why do you make me feel a peculiar sense of familiarity, originating from the bloodline? Are you a descendant it left behind?"
Ye Chen was shocked. Could Little Dot's true origin be a descendant of the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor?
He immediately shook his head, dismissing the thought. The Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor was a super-evolved pure-blooded true dragon, but Little Dot was clearly just a mysterious bird covered in crimson-gold down, having no connection whatsoever to the Crimson Blood Dragon Emperor. How could it possibly be the Dragon Emperor's descendant?
Having dismissed the idea, Ye Chen grew curious about Little Dot's true origins.
But soon, in the eyes of the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, the Crimson Scale Giant Dragon slowly extended a colossal, sinister claw, pointing towards the crimson-gold cocoon of light in the void.
Boom—
The next moment, it was visible to the naked eye. At the point where the dragon claw touched the crimson-gold cocoon of light, an even more fiery and intense crimson-gold light suddenly erupted, vast and mighty.
Then, with a thunderous roar, the crimson-gold cocoon of light erupted, releasing a terrifying supreme divine might. Simultaneously, a resounding dragon roar from the Crimson Scale Giant Dragon shook the Dragon Tomb world, echoing between heaven and earth.
Visible to the naked eye, the crimson-gold cocoon of light was absorbing massive amounts of crimson-gold radiance, spinning rapidly. Numerous crimson-gold Dao patterns faintly appeared on its surface, interwoven across the cocoon's body, making it appear so unique and astonishing.
Crack—
At the same time, a faint sound slowly rang out.
Visible to the naked eye, a fine crack suddenly appeared on the previously smooth, round surface of the crimson-gold cocoon of light.
Immediately, this crack spread at an astonishing speed, rapidly extending across the cocoon, forming a spiderweb pattern.
Not long after, the entire upper part of the crimson-gold cocoon of light was covered in dense, intricate cracks, interwoven everywhere. All the crimson-gold light retracted, sinking into the cocoon.
Only through the cracks could one see a dazzling radiance swelling within, and a powerful aura brewing and gestating.
Whether it was Ye Chen's Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, the Crimson Scale Giant Dragon, or the Dragon Tomb Will, all stared unblinkingly at the crimson-gold cocoon of light.
Crack—
At a certain moment, the cocoon suddenly shattered. A dazzling azure-gold light pillar burst forth, from which a small head slowly emerged. However, when Ye Chen saw this small head, his entire being was stunned.
