Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 533 - 548: Restoring the True Form (Part 3)

"In this world, there is no clear distinction between good and evil. If you kill, you are a sinner, but this is a world where the strong prey on the weak. As long as you are powerful, even if you are a sinner, no one dares to speak against you. There is one way to prove if someone is from Ten Thousand Bloods Valley, and perhaps I am the only one aware of this secret," the old woman said.

"What exactly is the secret?" the Carefree Palace Master asked immediately, knowing that such a secretive sect must have unusual characteristics.

"The people of Ten Thousand Bloods Valley have lived in that environment for so long that their blood has mutated. On a full moon night, their blood turns from red to green. If you notice the appearance of green blood, then that person is from Ten Thousand Bloods Valley," the old woman explained.

Upon hearing this, the Carefree Palace Master immediately understood and said, "Master, I will definitely pay attention to this matter, so rest assured. Wait for the good news from this disciple!" After saying this, he walked out of the secret chamber. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

In the great hall of the Holy Sword Sect, many disciples were gathered at the moment. The Sect Master of Holy Sword Sect sat on the throne, with a serious expression, saying to the crowd, "With such a major upheaval in the Green Frost Sect, what do you all think?"

"Sect Master, Green Frost Sect has always maintained a friendly relationship with our Holy Sword Sect. I believe we cannot repel them due to Sect Master Chu’s identity. Remember, without Green Frost Sect’s help back then, our Holy Sword Sect wouldn’t be where it is today," said a middle-aged man.

"Protector Deng is right; we should indeed not hold any prejudices against Green Frost Sect. However, the current Green Frost Sect Master possesses the Divine Dragon Body. Whether having a Divine Dragon control Green Frost Sect is a blessing or a curse for Canglan Ancient Land remains unknown. After all, the Dragon Race hasn’t appeared in Canglan Ancient Land for ten thousand years," the Sect Master of Holy Sword Sect remarked.

"Sect Master, I believe we should maintain a neutral stance, seeing the intentions of Carefree Palace. Bear in mind, the current Green Frost Sect has formed alliances with the Three Great Sects. If Green Frost Sect is in trouble, these Three Great Sects will certainly assist them. We cannot be the ones leading the charge; otherwise, the consequences will be severe," said an elder.

"Indeed, I agree with Second Elder. Many sects initially disagreed with Green Frost Sect’s rise, but finally agreed due to our Holy Sword Sect and Carefree Palace’s persuasion. If another sect comes to oppose, our Holy Sword Sect cannot stop them. We need to maintain a neutral attitude. Of course, if even Carefree Palace and Blood Evil Hall cannot tolerate it anymore, then we can respond," another elder added.

The Sect Master of Holy Sword Sect pondered for a moment and said, "I understand your intentions, but do you know the true identity of Chu Linfeng? He is the reincarnation of Qingshuang, a reincarnation of a true ancient strong one. He is neither a true Divine Dragon but a descendant of the Dragon Race and Human Race. This dual identity is truly unsettling.

Send some spies to observe the situation. We shall do nothing for now, and speak only when those sects have truly become intolerant of Green Frost Sect. Keep this matter buried in your hearts; do not discuss it casually. If I find out, there will be severe punishment."

After everyone left the great hall, the Sect Master of Holy Sword Sect smiled bitterly, "Chu Linfeng, ah Chu Linfeng, you truly keep surprising us. Without breaking through to the Saint Martial Realm, yet you could kill a Saint Martial Realm expert. Now you’ve become the most noble Golden Dragon of the Dragon Race. What next, I wonder. It’s indeed a bit exciting..."

At this moment, Chu Linfeng continued using the tactic of pretending to retreat to arouse the Little Golden Dragon’s soul’s interest. This time, Chu Linfeng’s divine sense did not retreat but quietly lingered outside the Little Golden Dragon’s invisible barrier.

Although anxious, Chu Linfeng patiently waited. After attempting this many times, he believed that this time, he would succeed in communicating with the Little Golden Dragon’s spirit.

After a while, the Little Golden Dragon could no longer contain its curiosity and surprisingly, broke its barrier to appear in front of Chu Linfeng’s divine sense, asking in human language, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Upon hearing the Little Golden Dragon’s voice, Chu Linfeng felt a rush of excitement and amusement. Was this a Golden Dragon with low intelligence, as it was asking who he was in his own sea of consciousness?

"I am the owner of this place. You came to my territory without greeting; you are at fault here!" Chu Linfeng replied.

"Why should I greet you? I am a noble Golden Dragon; who are you exactly? Humph!" The Little Golden Dragon’s soul seemed displeased and wanted to leave.

Chu Linfeng became concerned that if the dragon left, it would be difficult to get it to come out again, so he quickly said, "I was merely joking with you. I am also of the Dragon Race. I wish to be friends with you. If you don’t believe me, look at my current body to see if it is indeed of the Dragon Race. Surely, the great Golden Dragon Race possesses this minor ability."

Chu Linfeng coaxed and deceived, treating the dragon like a child. Surprisingly, his words worked. The Little Golden Dragon’s body flashed with a faint golden light, answering, "You truly are of my Dragon Race. Are you also a Golden Dragon? But you are only a five-clawed dragon now and not as strong as me; I am currently a seven-clawed Golden Dragon, so you should call me big brother."

Chu Linfeng found this displeasing, having to call the dragon big brother, but for the sake of regaining his original body, he chose to endure. After all, the Little Golden Dragon was indeed his golden dragon’s soul, so calling himself big brother was normal, without loss or gain.

"Big brother, remaining here isn’t a solution. We need to merge our souls, or I will never be able to change into human form, which could be dangerous," Chu Linfeng probed.

The Little Golden Dragon was pleased upon hearing Chu Linfeng call him big brother, and asked, "Why must we merge souls? It’s so safe here. What danger are you talking about? Are you trying to deceive your big brother? What are you really up to?"

Chu Linfeng hadn’t realized the dragon was so cunning, having underestimated him, he explained, "You should know our Dragon Race has not appeared in Canglan Ancient Land for tens of thousands of years. We’ve long become enemies of this land. Once I step out, countless experts will kill me. If I die, you will perish as well. Do you understand this danger?"

Chu Linfeng purposely exaggerated the threat to instill fear in the dragon, believing this was the way to agree to his condition. Deceiving a child was harder than defeating ten masters.

"After merging our souls, will I still be free?" The Little Golden Dragon seemed to relent, making Chu Linfeng inwardly delighted.

"Of course you will. Fusion is simply to allow me to transform into human form so we don’t face danger. You’re a seven-clawed Golden Dragon; this minor task won’t stump you, right? If you’re unwilling, I won’t force you. We can just wait here until we die. Know that Canglan Ancient Land holds many strange and peculiar things, but you won’t be able to see them," Chu Linfeng said.

The Little Golden Dragon said nothing further, clearly conflicted. After a while, he spoke, "Alright, hopefully, you won’t deceive me; otherwise, your death will be horrible..."
