The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

Good heavens, a descendant of Yinglong!

Chu Xiu looked at the dragon girl in shock.

In the world before him, Yinglong was referred to as the Ancestral Dragon in some ancient texts!

He is also the creator of many mythical beasts!

Although we don’t know the exact degree of similarity between this world and that world, the various coincidences in the past are enough to show that anything that exists in both worlds must be extraordinary.

Ye Wujiang glanced at Chu Xiu with amusement: "You don't know yet, do you..."

"She was born at the Great Perfection of the Reincarnation Realm."

"what?"

Chu Xiu was astonished, while Long Xue was somewhat impatient.

Yes, she was born at the Great Perfection of the Reincarnation Realm.

But after living for over a hundred years, no matter how hard she tried to cultivate, her cultivation level did not improve at all.

It was as if it was telling her that she had reached the limit of her potential in this life.

"So... this skeleton can sense you, so it must be from the Yinglong clan."

Chu Xiu pondered carefully,

A dragon standing at the very top of the demon race's bloodline died in a secret realm...

Although it is unknown whether this secret realm was formed after his death or whether he entered it before his death, it is enough to show that this secret realm must be extraordinary.

Ye Wujiang gazed into the distance: "I'll go take a look around. You two should go together, just in case."

Chu Xiu nodded in agreement. Although Long Xue's eyes showed dissatisfaction, he knew that his strength was the lowest among the three. If he encountered danger, he would probably not escape death. He had no choice but to accept Ye Wujiang's arrangement.

"I want to take a closer look," Long Xue suddenly whispered.

Chu Xiu nodded, and the two of them flashed to the front of the enormous skull of the skeleton.

Long Xue slowly stepped forward, raised his arm, and wanted to make direct contact with it.

Chu Xiu warned, "Be careful."

Long Xue glanced at him, nodded slightly, gathered his magic power to envelop his arm, and then stretched out his hand to place his palm on the skull of the skeleton.

Upon touching the skull, Long Xue's eyes trembled: "The connection between me and it is becoming more and more obvious."

"It's as if it's calling me..."

Chu Xiu frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

Just as he changed his perspective to examine the skull, he suddenly saw a red light flash within the skull's empty eye sockets.

"Watch out!" Chu Xiu blurted out, but it was too late.

A spatial vortex suddenly appeared on the skull, and the spot where Long Xue's palm was placed directly sucked her in.

Seeing that the spatial vortex did not immediately close after swallowing Long Xue, Chu Xiu hesitated for a long time before leaving a voice transmission at his current location. Only then did he grit his teeth and take the initiative to rush into the spatial vortex.

He wasn't exactly a pushover; he just felt that since he'd come to the secret realm, he should explore its wonders.

The saying "the greater the risk, the greater the reward" perfectly illustrates this point.

The two people who were sucked into the spatial vortex are now in a white, misty space.

Besides Chu Xiu and Long Xue, a gigantic creature was crawling in the far distance within this white space.

With its dragon-like shape and two wings on its back, this image is undoubtedly that of the Yinglong!

The sleeping Yinglong seemed to sense the arrival of the two and opened its sleepy eyes.

The next second, Chu Xiu and Long Xue felt their bodies being moved in front of Ying Long by a force, and they were unable to resist.

Looking at the dragon-shaped creature before them, hundreds of times larger than themselves, even though its size was considered "small" compared to the skeleton outside, it was still terrifyingly enormous in front of the two even "smaller" people.

Yinglong's golden vertical pupils first glanced at Longxue, revealing a look of surprise, but then fixed his gaze on Chu Xiu, showing interest.

It seems its sole purpose in staying here for countless years is to await the arrival of someone capable of entering this realm.

After taking out ten scrolls from an unknown source, giving six to Chu Xiu and the remaining four to Long Xue, Ying Long closed his eyes, his figure dissipating into golden light that showered upon the two of them.

He didn't utter a single word from beginning to end.

"What's going on..." Chu Xiu looked at the six scrolls floating in front of him, somewhat bewildered.

"The writing on this is ancient demonic script. It should contain some cultivation techniques and secret manuals. But why do you have two more than me?" Long Xue looked at the scroll in front of him and frowned as he looked at Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu shook his head and joked, "How would I know? Could it be that I have the bloodline of Yinglong in my body, or even a stronger one than yours?"

Long Xue rolled his eyes: "How could that be? You're just a human."

The two are still in the white space.

Chu Xiu tried to open up a spatial passage, but to no avail.

He had no choice but to sit cross-legged on the ground, looking at the six scrolls in front of him that he could not put into his storage space.

"Does this mean that we two must memorize or master the contents of the scroll before we can leave this place?"

With a question in mind, Chu Xiu reached out and grasped the scroll closest to him.

These scrolls must have been made from the skins of demons, exuding an incredibly ancient and weathered demonic aura.

The scroll contained text written entirely in the demon race script that Chu Xiu could not understand.

After examining the remaining five scrolls, Chu Xiu discovered that two of them were stained with large patches of blood.

Strangely, there were no words beneath the bloodstains, as if the bloodstains were left on purpose.

Long Xue leaned closer for a glance and his eyes widened in shock: "This is... the bloodline inheritance mark of the demon race!"

Bloodline inheritance mark?

Chu Xiu glanced at her: "How did you know?"

Long Xue pointed to his head: "Some things have been in my mind since I was born."

Chu Xiu suddenly realized that this must be the legendary memory inheritance.

Some powerful beings seal their legacy within the consciousness of their descendants through memories. When the descendants grow to a certain stage, the seal will gradually be broken, allowing them to inherit the legacy of their predecessors.

"I only know the form of these ancient and mysterious scripts, but I don't know their meaning. I can't understand them at all, so I can only memorize these symbols by force."

"But triggering this bloodline inheritance mark isn't difficult, but special methods are still needed to read the information within it."

Long Xue lightly tapped his forehead with his finger, took out a piece of white paper from his spatial ring, wrote a long passage on it, and handed it to Chu Xiu.

"This is the demon race's blood-reading technique recorded in my memory, specifically used to read the bloodline passed down through this method."

However, demonic techniques require demonic blood to be used. Why don't you give it a try?

"it is good!"

Chu Xiu took the blank sheet of paper from Long Xue, wrote down its contents, and then burned the paper itself.

Following the instructions on the paper, he suspended the two bloodstained scrolls in front of him, then bit them, smearing his own blood onto the bloodstains and drawing several strange runes.

As the rune drawing was completed, Chu Xiu gradually felt a subtle connection established between his mind and the scroll, but he couldn't grasp this feeling. Whenever he tried to control his mind to approach that connection, he felt that he was getting further and further away from it.

Chu Xiu opened his eyes and shook his head: "Although there was a reaction, it still failed."

Little did they know that Long Xue was already filled with astonishment: "You, a human, actually possess demon blood?"

"The fact that there's a reaction proves that the technique was successfully executed! It's just that you're not very skilled at using this technique since it's your first time!"
