Xiao Qing’s eyes lit up, and she hastily called out to the figure above, "Master! Please come down for a moment."
"Little Prince, have you acknowledged a human as your master?" The Black Dragon looked at Xiao Qing in shock. How could their Dragon Clan prince acknowledge a human as master?
Xiao Qing nodded and said, "It was Master who helped me break the seal, and it is also thanks to Master that I have my current strength." Without Master, she might still be trapped within that blue crystal stone.
The Black Dragon fell silent! Yes, had the seal not been broken, the Little Prince wouldn’t have been able to come out at all, let alone cultivate.
Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo descended from above. They had been monitoring the situation below with their Divine Sense, so they understood why Xiao Qing was calling them down.
The Black Dragon sized up the two humans and let out a sigh. It was hard to believe that their Dragon Clan prince had to submit to a human woman.
Luo Shu stepped forward, looked at the big copper lock on the Black Dragon’s claw, and released a Flame Snake towards the lock. Due to her advancement in strength, the level of her flames had also increased significantly.
The Black Dragon immediately felt a fierce pain. However, in its heart, it held no hope for Luo Shu’s flames.
There were only one hundred and twenty-eight kinds of unique flames in existence. But considering how vast the universe was, how easy could it be to obtain such flames? Maybe Luo Shu’s flames were not ordinary, but they surely couldn’t be one of those unique flames.
Under the relentless burning of the Flame Snake, the big copper lock "clattered!" and fell from the Black Dragon’s claw.
The Black Dragon opened its mouth wide in shock, looking at the bright red flames in Luo Shu’s hand. They truly were one of the unique flames!
"Long Jing, you are free now!" Xiao Qing said happily.
"Mhm!" Long Jing nodded, his massive dragon body swayed, and he transformed into a man with hair as soft as satin, cascading down his fair and translucent skin, and a pair of eyes black as ink, shimmering with enthralling radiance. Whenever Dragon Clan members transformed into humans, they were all handsome men and beautiful women—their superior genes had determined this long ago.
Long Jing curved his lips into a smile and gave Luo Shu a bow with his hands folded in front, "Thank you!"
Luo Shu smiled and shook her head, "Long Jing, why do you only roar during the full moon nights?" She had always been curious about this.
"I can only wake up during the full moon nights. After tonight, I will fall into slumber again," Long Jing said with a sorrowful look in his eyes. He had been locked up here for more than ten thousand years, and for almost just as long he had been asleep.
"What is your current level of cultivation?" Xiao Qing asked. She, too, wanted to transform into a human, but knew she had to wait until she became a Level Seven Spiritual Beast.
"I am currently a Third-Level Immortal Beast, which is equivalent to the Extreme Immortal Period in human cultivators. However, due to the restrictions of this space, my current strength should be almost at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage," Long Jing answered. His cultivation level had not improved for over ten thousand years.
Upon hearing these words, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were utterly taken aback. They hadn’t expected Long Jing to be so powerful. And such a powerful being was locked up here—how formidable must the Dragon Clan’s enemies be? They could hardly imagine!
"Let’s leave this place first," Lu Hanmo suggested.
"Okay," Luo Shu and Long Jing nodded their heads in agreement.
The three of them and the snake left the ancient tomb, restoring it to its original state, truly making it a veritable ancient tomb.
"Long Jing, from now on, you’ll be staying in my master’s space with me," Xiao Qing said to Long Jing.
"Yes!" Long Jing replied respectfully.
Xiao Qing looked at Luo Shu, who smiled lightly and used her Divine Sense to pull both the man and the snake into her own space.
Upon entering the space, Long Jing looked around and was slightly surprised, "That palace must be the Little Prince’s personal space, right?"
Xiao Qing nodded, "Master only managed to open the first restriction of the palace, and then she couldn’t open it any further. Do you know what the situation is?"
"To open this palace, you need to use the Little Prince’s blood," Long Jing stated.
"So that’s how it is! Let me give it a try," Xiao Qing said as if suddenly understanding, and she spat a mouthful of fresh blood toward the palace.
The palace began to shake violently, and soon it was radiating a brilliant golden light, dazzling and resplendent as if it were extremely radiant and splendid.
Luo Shu felt the change in her space and, along with Lu Hanmo, teleported into it.
Seeing the transformation of the palace, they looked at Xiao Qing and Long Jing in amazement, "What’s going on?"
"Master, I’ve unlocked all of the palace’s restrictions. From now on, we can cultivate the top-level Cultivation Techniques inside," Xiao Qing said joyfully. Long Jing had just told her that the palace contained the Dragon Clan’s inheritance, and even the Mirror of Time was inside. It was for this very reason that their enemies so relentlessly pursued them.
