Great Yue Country.
Royal Treasure Vault.
"Is this the item left by Liu Mingyan’s mother?"
Lu Yuan examined the drop of Divine Blood, pondering.
But just at that moment.
The drop of Divine Blood suddenly trembled, transforming into an Ancient True Dragon, rushing straight at Lu Yuan.
In the very next second.
The light in the Imperial Palace Treasure Vault shone brightly.
Chains composed of countless arrays and array patterns manifested on the surface of the Ancient True Dragon’s body, firmly binding it in place.
Though it was only a step away from Lu Yuan, it could not advance any further.
It could only roar to the heavens, letting out an earth-shattering howl.
"Senior, I felt my mother’s presence from it."
Liu Mingyan looked at the fierce Ancient True Dragon, feeling an inexplicable sense of closeness.
Driven by this sense of familiarity, she unconsciously stepped forward a few steps.
The Ancient True Dragon bared its teeth and was about to roar angrily.
But sensing the pure bloodline of the Ancient Dragon Race in Liu Mingyan, it gradually became docile, allowing Liu Mingyan to stroke its small head.
"No wonder Li Yue tried every trick to lure me into the Imperial Palace, intending to kill me with this drop of blood?"
Lu Yuan sneered faintly.
If he guessed correctly, this drop of True Blood came from Liu Mingyan’s mother.
For a Daoist Palace strong person, even a single drop of blood could destroy an entire region.
Even with Liu Mingyan’s mother severely injured, her power not as strong as in her prime.
This drop of fresh blood alone could easily kill a Nirvana Strong Person in the Fourth Realm without any trouble.
Moreover, judging by the surrounding array formation and Dao marks.
This array was clearly crafted by Liu Mingyan’s mother.
Otherwise, with the mere power of the Great Yue Country, a secular dynasty, how could they have the means to imprison a drop of a Daoist Palace strong person’s True Blood?
At this moment.
The Jade Pendant at Liu Mingyan’s waist suddenly floated into the air, emitting a soft glow.
"Rumble~"
The array activated.
All chains and restraints disappeared, allowing the Ancient True Dragon to finally break free and reveal itself to the outside world!
"Roar!"
It roared to the sky, its voice booming like thunder above the entire Imperial City.
In that instant.
The world changed color, and the space trembled.
A desolate aura, as if from ancient times, spread out centered on the Ancient True Dragon, expanding in all directions.
Within a hundred miles.
Whether they were Human Race cultivators or ants, insects, snakes, and rats hidden underground, all trembled uncontrollably, prostrating themselves on the ground.
Even Lu Yuan, standing not far away, was no exception, feeling a shiver from deep within his bloodline and soul!
The Ancient Dragon Race was one of the most powerful supreme creatures in this starry sky.
And the Ancient True Dragon before him, though only manifested from a Daoist Palace strong person’s True Blood.
The terrifying power it contained could raise the dead and grow flesh from bones.
Should a mortal manage to refine it, ascending to Heaven in a single step and achieving immortality would be effortless!
But Lu Yuan understood well.
The power of the Ancient True Dragon was too dreadful, far beyond what ordinary races could endure.
If anyone dared to rashly absorb the power of this drop of Divine Blood, they would likely burst and die in an instant!
And as the Divine Blood just broke free.
It transformed into a stream of light, merging completely with Liu Mingyan.
However, the moment the Divine Blood entered her body.
A look of pain instantly appeared on Liu Mingyan’s delicate face.
Her snow-white skin now seared like red-hot iron, with an alarmingly high temperature.
The massive Divine Power coursed through her meridians, spreading to every part of her body, and her clothes burst into pieces, turning to dust.
Especially under the refinement of this drop of Divine Blood.
Liu Mingyan’s Ancient Dragon Race bloodline was now fully awakened, evolving towards a higher level of life form!
Her skin shed in patches like a snake sloughing its skin, growing smoother and finer with each renewal.
Her blood, bones, meridians, and even her soul were undergoing dramatic transformations.
With each passing breath, her aura grew several times stronger!
What surprised Lu Yuan even more.
As her life form evolved, Liu Mingyan even sprouted a pair of coral-like dragon horns on her head!
Moreover.
A grand and vast power suddenly descended from the sky, coalescing into a True Dragon Illusion in midair.
The True Dragon Illusion was lifelike, roaring towards the heavens, causing countless people to be stunned.
"What is that? Could it be the Great Yue Royal Family has an unparalleled divine artifact coming into the world?"
"What terrifying might! Just a wisp of its aura is enough to suppress a strong person in the Carefree Realm!"
"A natural phenomenon, Law Resonance, this is the legendary Ancient Dragon Race!"
All the cultivators prostrated on the ground, their eyes filled with terror and despair.
"Not good!"
Lu Yuan’s expression also changed dramatically upon witnessing this scene.
The True Dragon Bloodline was powerful. Once exposed, it would undoubtedly attract countless covetous and prying eyes.
And at that moment.
The array of the Imperial Palace Treasure Vault suddenly activated, concealing all auras.
The True Dragon Illusion disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
But all the cultivators who witnessed that scene earlier were deeply disturbed, fearing it would haunt them for the rest of their lives!
"Is this another measure left by Liu Mingyan’s mother?"
Lu Yuan looked at the array in the Treasure Vault, contemplating.
However, the previous commotion was too great; it must have already caught the attention of those with ill intent.
