Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 5: Divine Weapon, Supreme Golden Dragon Sword
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"Mhm!"
Observing the little girl's thrilled reaction to her recent cultivation breakthrough, Ye Yun offered only a faint smile.
He had just detected Luo Li’s bloodline.
Luo Li’s Ancestral Dragon Bloodline purity had now achieved 1%. With this pace, merely a few hundred drops of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood would elevate her bloodline level beyond 90%.
The lower the cultivation realm, the stronger the impact of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood, and the lesser the expense.
Yet, not all could endure the power of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood.
Only bearers of Dragon God Bloodline could utilize various Divine Dragon Essence Blood types to boost their bloodline purity.
Regardless of the enhancement approach, reaching 100% Divine Dragon Bloodline remained unattainable.
Not even Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood could bridge that final step.
The highest achievable was 99%.
Though merely 1% short, that tiny divide formed an insurmountable gulf, barring humans eternally from the full might of a Divine Dragon.
Ye Yun’s own Ancestral Dragon Bloodline concentration had likewise surged to 90%.
This stemmed from his elevated realm, allowing swift advancement.
For young ones like Luo Li, progress demanded steady increments.
The deeper the advancement, the steeper the required investment, particularly beyond 90%.
Still, for humans to hold 90% Dragon Clan Bloodline proved more than ample.
"Luo Li, our Dragon God Sect boasts three supreme techniques: palm arts, swordsmanship, and movement techniques."
Ye Yun gazed intently at Luo Li, flashed a subtle smile, and inquired, "How fares your mastery of them?"
At that instant, Luo Li rose to her feet, her petite face flushing a bit as she bowed her head.
"Replying to the Ancestor, I excel most in the Divine Dragon Hundred Change Body Method, then Swordsmanship. Yet, I struggle most with the palm technique, having scarcely grasped it!"
Luo Li admitted bashfully.
Ye Yun burst into hearty laughter.
Ye Yun figured it wasn't solely Luo Li; probably every Dragon God Sect disciple from the 251st generation had focused on fleeing.
Consequently, they all mastered the Divine Dragon Hundred Change Body Method to perfection.
"No longer will you need to flee."
Ye Yun's faint smile held firm, though his face grew several shades chillier without thought.
SWISH!
With a casual flick of his wrist,
a piercing cold gleam materialized in his grasp.
It was a sublime Divine Sword, pristine and icy clear like flawless ice. Sealed within its almost see-through blade stood a vivid seven-inch Golden Divine Dragon.
The sword emitted blinding radiance and unleashed a mighty Super Divine Dragon Breath. Upon manifesting in the air, nearby space quivered and warped faintly.
Luo Li’s face shifted in shock.
"Ancestor, what rank does this sword hold?" Overwhelmed by the Divine Sword's crushing Super Divine Dragon Breath, Luo Li struggled to breathe and questioned haltingly.
Ye Yun gave a light toss of his hand.
The awe-inspiring aura of this unparalleled Divine Sword withdrew at once, letting Luo Li exhale deeply in relief.
"This is the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword. God level, one might say..."
Ye Yun grinned softly and tapped the sword blade, drawing forth a crisp dragon roar.
Struck by Ye Yun's flick, the imprisoned Golden Divine Dragon inside stirred to life, rolling energetically within.
Luo Li stared in stunned silence.
She could scarcely believe the Ancestor revealed a God level treasure right away.
Luo Li felt profound astonishment.
On Cangnan Continent, even Eternal Level factions prized only Emperor Level Divine Weapons as their finest.
And as Dragon God Sect's Sect Master, she knew their Sect once owned an Emperor Level Divine Sword.
Regrettably, that invaluable Emperor Level Divine Sword met its end under the 250th Sect Master.
"Luo Li, take this sword. As Dragon God Sect's Sect Master, you may fall short elsewhere, but your weapon must never disappoint!"
Ye Yun smiled faintly, pride evident in his demeanor.
The Dragon God Sect's core prowess lay in swordsmanship. Thus, its Sect Master required a worthy Divine Sword.
"Oh..."
Still reeling from shock, Luo Li numbly received the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword. She stared at the Golden Divine Dragon trapped in the sword's crystalline form, her features frozen in awe.
"The entity sealed within is a living Dragon Soul..." Ye Yun remarked smilingly.
Luo Li nodded quietly.
She stroked the sword body tenderly, reluctant to release it. Waves of jubilant bliss filled her heart, eyes gleaming, nearly salivating over it.
Luo Li had never fathomed that she, once Cangnan Continent's most wretched Sect Master, would wield a God level weapon unmatched across the entire land.
After roughly half an incense stick's duration, Luo Li recovered and choked out, "Ancestor, this sword is incredible, yet I dare not brandish it publicly!"
Ye Yun chuckled and assured, "Fear not. I’ll layer Seals upon it, capping it at Heavenly Quality initially. As your cultivation rises, unseal them progressively."
With those words, Ye Yun tapped the void with his fingers.
The God level Supreme Golden Dragon Sword's Super Divine Dragon Breath swiftly diminished, stabilizing at lower heavenly grade.
Luo Li sighed in relief.
"Oh, and the scabbard!"
Ye Yun abruptly recalled. Flashing a grin, he produced a golden scabbard and tossed it casually to Luo Li.
Grasping the scabbard, Luo Li sensed crushing weight that staggered her, almost toppling her.
She wailed tearfully, "Ancestor, this scabbard’s quality is high too, right? Seal it fast, please!"
"This scabbard ranks Emperor Level. You could swing it like a club to smash foes!"
Ye Yun roared with laughter.
After a few taps on the scabbard, its Super Divine Dragon Breath fully dissipated.
It transformed into an unremarkable Spirit Level scabbard.
At last, Luo Li relaxed completely.
She sheathed the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword and clutched both tightly, face etched with utmost care, lest the Divine Sword slip away.
"Intruders approach from outside!"
Ye Yun’s brows knit faintly, a trace of irritation crossing his refined, jade-like visage.
"Ancestor, those must be my pursuers..."
Luo Li ventured hesitantly.
"Let’s go!"
With a broad sweep of his hand, Ye Yun wrapped Luo Li in glowing light, teleporting them instantly atop the Sect ruins.
Hovering over the Dragon God Sect ruins, surveying the moss-choked collapsed walls, Ye Yun reminisced his youth here, assuming Sect Master role at eighteen... Myriad memories flooded back, stirring deep melancholy.
One hundred thousand years had passed. Seas became mulberry fields.
All in a mere instant.
The formerly grand and thriving Dragon God Sect had withered away, erased from Cangnan Continent's historical flow.
"Luo Li!"
Ye Yun’s eyes sharpened as he whispered.
"Disciple is here!"
Gripping the Divine Sword, Luo Li positioned herself beside the Ancestor, stance heroic, face resolute.
"From today on, your sole duty is slaughter!"
Ye Yun declared evenly.
His tone brimmed with endless killing intent.
BOOM!
As his words landed, heaven and earth responded, thunder crashing abruptly through the void!
