"This is it. This is the target of the holy sword." Xia Yi looked at the holy sword.
The direction the holy sword was pointing was deep into the temple.
The silver-haired loli was about to enter. Just as she reached the threshold and before she even stepped through the door, she felt a terrifying pressure descending, as if a wall appeared out of nowhere, blocking Xia Yi's way.
And that’s not all. An invisible weight fell down. The more they resisted, the heavier the weight became, crushing any outsider who dared to lay hands on the temple.
"Well……"
Xia Yi showed an uncomfortable expression, she felt like her consciousness was about to shatter.
If I were to fall here, my soul would dissipate.
In a trance, this pressure gave her a sense of déjà vu...
That’s right, it’s the pressure from the Dragon King!
Xia Yi suddenly remembered something. Xia Lulu had told her before that only people with royal blood could enter the secret realm within the sea of trees.
That must be what it means.
"The Dragon King's...pressure!!" Xia Yi activated her royal bloodline, and her silver eyes released a faint light.
Just like the correct key opening the lock, the pressure on her disappeared and the restrictions on entering the temple were lifted.
"Huh...it's really the correct answer."
Xia Yi heaved a sigh of relief and used the Dragon King's pressure to counterattack, but the mental drain on him was too great and he collapsed on the ground in exhaustion.
“No wonder only those of royal bloodline can enter. If they were unable to release the Dragon King’s pressure, they would have surely been annihilated.”
After quickly adjusting his state, Xia Yi finished his rest, stood up, entered the temple, and prepared to find out what was going on.
However, to be on the safe side, Xia Yi did not rush in, but conducted some exploration first. There was no one else inside the temple except himself.
After making sure of this, she fully entered the temple.
The royal blood in the little princess' body became excited, as if it was a resonance of blood. Her heart seemed to be about to burst through her chest, and the temperature of her blood continued to rise, as if it was boiling.
When everything inside the temple was displayed behind her, Xia Yi's silver pupils shrank and her mind went blank.
That was the silver dragon king who looked down upon the world in the mythological era.
The little princess called out instinctively: "...Ancestor."
139 Mythology Age
It was a lifelike sculpture, a giant silver dragon, as if it had life, high above, majestic and inviolable.
When Xia Yi reacted, he found himself performing royal etiquette towards the statue of the Dragon King, expressing his awe to his ancestors as a descendant.
"what……"
Xia Yi took several steps back and hid behind a pillar. She first poked out her aho-geek hair and then slowly stuck her head out.
Silver Dragon Loli is observing secretly.
"Well, what am I doing? Don't be afraid. This is a sculpture."
Although she said so, Xia Yi still hid behind the pillar. She found that the sculpture of the Dragon King seemed to be cast with magic. It was spotless, brand new, and not damaged at all.
Not only the sculptures, but the interior of the temple seems to be almost the same, as if it was just built.
It seemed like magic.
"How magical!!" Xia Yi couldn't help but exclaim.
Because from outside observation, this temple has been around for who knows how long, probably more than tens of thousands of years...
But after such a long time, without anyone maintaining it, there is actually magic inside the temple that keeps it running stably.
If the magic master Gran saw this scene, he would definitely jump up in surprise, and then lie on the ground and start studying the incredible magic.
Xia Yi felt more and more that the temple was extraordinary.
"The Dragon King of the Silver Dragon Clan..."
The bloodline of the silver dragon clan is quite rare in the dragon clan. Therefore, among all the dragon kings in history, there are only a handful of silver dragons who have served as dragon kings. Xia Yi probably knows who they are.
"After all, I am a silver dragon myself—"
The holy sword flashed.
Xia Yi quickly changed her words and made a correction, "Oh, no, no, I am only a dragon for now, and I will turn back into a human in the future!"
In short, Xia Yi knew about all the silver dragons who became Dragon Kings in history.
But the statue in front of me does not belong to any of them.
Under the influence of the blood resonance just now, I called the other party ancestor, so there is only one possibility...
He is the Dragon King of the mythological era.
On this land, the era that began after the birth of the new world was called the Mythological Age. The Mythological Age was an extremely distant past, even older than the ancient times. Only the remaining documents recorded in a few words how magnificent that world was.
In the mythological age, there were even living gods.
As to how the mythological age ended, there is no definite answer, but one thing is certain: it was closely related to the disappearance of the gods on earth.
The end of the mythological era was marked by the Dragon War.
That was the first war without the participation of gods, and it marked the beginning of the ancient times.
In the library of the imperial palace, the biography of the Dragon King has been preserved since ancient times.
"This must be the Dragon King from the mythological era, so I subconsciously call him 'ancestor'." Xia Yi had a rough idea in mind.
In this case, the sea of trees is truly extraordinary, as it actually contains heritage from the mythological era.
Now that I'm here, I still have to say hello to my seniors.
This was the valuable experience Xia Yi gained during her time as the human swordsman.
For example, if you explore some ruins and are disrespectful to the former owners of the ruins, there will definitely be dangerous traps waiting for you.
Respect definitely needs to be given.
This doesn't mean that I have acknowledged my identity as a dragon, it's just for safety reasons!
The little princess came out from behind the pillar and put the holy sword aside.
"Ancestor, hello, I am Xiayi Christie, the daughter of the current dragon ruler, Xialulu Christie, the Silver Dragon Princess."
Xia Yi saluted the ancestor Dragon King.
She looked at the statue nervously, concentrating her attention, fearing that the statue would come back to life...
But fortunately, the statue did not change at all.
buzzing.
At this moment, the holy sword began to vibrate.
Xia Yi felt something was wrong. She turned around and was so scared that her hair stood up.
The holy sword actually floated up, and the tip of the sword was pointed at the statue of the ancestor, as if it was ready to pierce through the statue.
“No! Holy Sword, stop it!!”
Xia Yifei pounced over and pinned him down.
Buzz!
The holy sword was still moving around, as if it was determined to cut off the statue of Immortal Master Xia Yi, as if it had seen an enemy.
"Calm down, Holy Sword, this is just a statue, it's not real!!"
Xia Yi tried desperately to persuade him, and at the same time used the seal of the Holy Sword to try to make the Holy Sword behave itself.
"Stop messing around!! This isn't the real Dragon King. There's no point in killing him!"
It took a long time for the Holy Sword to calm down.
Xia Yi finally felt relieved.
If he let the holy sword cut the statue, and if there was some magic trap set inside, with the level of magic in the temple, Xia Yi would be doomed.
However, there was still one thing she didn't quite understand.
Everything here is closely related to the dragon clan. Why did my holy sword react when it was on the outskirts of the sea of trees?
The Holy Sword has always recognized the souls of humans and will only choose humans as the wielders of the Holy Sword. Outsiders simply cannot use the power of the Holy Sword.
There is no doubt about this.
Therefore, it is very strange that the Holy Sword has a violent reaction to the temple of the Dragon Clan.
Theoretically, the holy sword would not have any connection with the dragon clan.
"Old friend, why did you bring me here?" Xia Yi asked Shengjian.
Buzz!
The holy sword flashed twice and pointed in another direction.
Xia Yi looked in the direction she was looking and saw a huge stone tablet with a lot of information recorded on it. And it was all in obscure ancient dragon language that even ordinary dragons could not read.
"But it doesn't matter, I happen to know how to do it!" Xia Yi was very proud.
The education she received was not an ordinary course. It naturally included courses on ancient dragon language. It was not difficult for her to interpret the contents on the stone tablet.
Xia Yi began to interpret it.
It probably describes some glorious past events of this ancestor Dragon King.
How powerful this Dragon King is, fighting against a group of kings of higher species, such as the demons, blood races, giants...
"Wait, what is this?!"
Xia Yi saw a line of content and after understanding its meaning, she stood there in a daze.
Because the content recorded above is a shocking fact, which simply violates the common sense of the world and overturns the cognition she has always believed.
"The fifth highest king, the Human King, holds the Holy Sword in hand and carries the Holy Spear on his back, and fights a bloody battle with the Dragon King."
