Chapter 2705: Chapter 2681: Primeval Essence

Chapter 2681 Guidance from the Dragon Clan

Lin Feng heard Tian Yin’s confirmation and asked, "Can this egg still hatch?"

After pondering, Tian Yin examined the egg and said, "It can, indeed, but it’s very troublesome and will take a long time. However, the most challenging part is dealing with the demon energy inside the egg first."

The dragon eggs of the Dragon Clan are extremely special, and the chance of hatching is small, so there aren’t many members in the clan. Additionally, dragons are born with the strength of a Demon Emperor, which is why the Dragon Clan is so legendary in the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm.

Tian Yin tossed the dragon egg into the air of the grand hall, where it hovered in the center. Suddenly, a surge of golden demon energy flew from his palm, and instantly, a golden light illuminated the entire hall, wrapping the giant egg like a golden silk.

At the same time, all eleven members of the Dragon Clan below formed a circle, condensing their demon energy into different colors, and shot towards the giant egg. Instantly, the egg was tightly surrounded by a rainbow-colored demon energy.

This scene truly amazed Lin Feng. He hadn’t expected extracting the demon energy from this giant egg would require so many members of the Dragon Clan performing the operation together. Black smoke rose from the black giant egg in layers, and the egg slowly changed color, as if the black inside the egg could be clearly seen churning. The black mist dyed the entire space above the egg pitch black, but soon it dissipated...

An hour later, the giant egg gradually turned a pale green, and one could feel the demon energy slowly dissipating. Once the blackness in the egg vanished entirely, everyone withdrew their demon energy from the egg, and finally, Tian Yin condensed his golden demon energy into a golden disc and placed the giant egg upon it.

"Although this egg was demonized, the dragon body itself hasn’t been affected. Now that the demon energy is fully extracted, we just have to wait for it to hatch." Tian Yin retracted the golden demon energy and looked at Lin Feng, guessing this young man must be closely linked to the Dragon Clan, even though he wasn’t sure how Lin Feng obtained the egg.

"Senior, how long will it take?" Lin Feng gazed at the giant egg calmly resting on the golden disc, unsure of his feelings. Actually, he didn’t intend to acquire the giant egg; just returning it to the Dragon Clan would resolve a concern. If it would take too long, he merely planned to return to Lin City.

"It’s hard to say, a month, a year, ten years, it’s all uncertain." Tian Yin smiled faintly at Lin Feng and said, "Since you’re here, you might as well stay for a while. When the time is right, the baby dragon will meet you."

Afterwards, Tian Yin instructed Tianmu to take the dragon egg to the place where the Dragon Clan specifically hatches eggs for meticulous care. Since hatching uses a special Secret Technique of the Dragon Clan, others are not allowed to witness it, so Lin Feng can only wait.

Being invited by the Dragon Clan’s ancestor, Lin Feng couldn’t refuse, and he was truly eager to know what kind of dragon was inside this egg.

Later, Tian Yin arranged for Tianfan to lead Lin Feng to rest. Tianfan brought Lin Feng to a quaint little courtyard and said, "Brother Lin, you can rest here first. You can freely explore this island. If you need anything, come find me."

"Thank you, senior." Lin Feng said to Tianfan, who then departed.

Observing the courtyard carefully, Lin Feng felt the Dragon Clan was quite different from what he had imagined. Contrary to popular belief, they weren’t aloof and domineering but rather friendly and kind. The courtyard was charmingly rustic like unique countryside lodging, without any luxurious decorations.

Lin Feng walked into the house, laid on the couch, and closed his eyes. Since arriving in the Southern Region, he hadn’t really rested, but finally, he could sleep peacefully.

In the days following, Lin Feng explored the island and discovered there were only twelve members of the Dragon Clan. It showed just how sparse the population of the Dragon Clan was. He constantly sought advice from various seniors, and to his surprise, each member had a different demon energy system, and their powers were remarkably strong. From their teachings, he learned many things; being guided by such mighty figures is a rare opportunity in the world of cultivators.

Through his observations over the days, Lin Feng became curious. The Dragon Clan was similar to the Phoenix Clan, lacking younger generations and consisting mainly of adults. Among the twelve Dragon Clan members, there were also four dragon women.

During his explorations, regardless of whom he sought advice from, they would wholeheartedly teach him. After all, they considered Lin Feng as an external member of the Dragon Clan...

After a few days of exploration in the Dragon Clan Residence, Lin Feng became familiar with everyone on the island. One day, he saw two dragon women sparring with each other; he stood at a distance watching for quite some time. Suddenly, a faint purple demon energy transformed into a beam and shot towards him. Upon seeing the purple beam, he leaped into the air, evading the attack. As he landed, he gave a faint smile towards the two dragon women.

"Quick reflexes, youngster." Tianmu smiled at Lin Feng. She wore a light purple silk dress and appeared to be in her thirties, with red lips and white teeth, resembling a fairy. Their transformed human appearances were naturally meant to be strikingly beautiful. She specialized in divination in the Dragon Clan and, for some reason, felt a strong affinity towards Lin Feng. She allowed Lin Feng to call her ’Aunt.’

"Thank you for going easy on me, Aunt Tianmu." Lin Feng smiled and approached the two dragon women, joining them at a stone table.

"Young Master Lin, why do you have the aura of the Phoenix Clan on you?" Tianqing looked at Lin Feng and asked. She was responsible for alchemy in the Dragon Clan and noticed the fire element within Lin Feng was quite active when she first met him. But upon closer inspection, she found he carried the aura of the Phoenix Clan, which genuinely surprised her.

"Senior, I have previously received a baptism from the Phoenix Clan," Lin Feng said calmly.

"What? The Innate True Fire of the Phoenix Clan? And you are still alive?" Such an answer made Tianqing’s eyes widen. She knew the kind of temperature the Innate True Fire of the Phoenix Clan had and couldn’t believe the legendary experiences this young man had gone through.

Seeing Lin Feng nod, Tianmu said, "I’ll give you a divination sometime and see what your background really is!"

Though it was a joke, Tianmu could feel that the aura emanating from Lin Feng was very different from that of any human she had ever encountered. She had met people from the Divine Emperor before, but none had an aura as unique and powerful as Lin Feng’s. It was perplexing, and she could not yet be sure of the reasons.

Lin Feng smiled at the two dragon ladies and said, "Alright, seniors, I’ll take my leave for now."

In recent days, he hadn’t checked on the hatching of the dragon eggs, but Lin Feng was in no hurry. He sensed that having the guidance of seniors on this Dragon Clan island greatly benefited his cultivation. Moreover, the Spirit Grass on this island was of extremely high grade, generally suitable for refining Cosmic Grade elixirs. In his spare time, he would gather some elixirs.

Lin Feng felt troubled about his strength improvement. After those epiphanies and the inheritance of the Heavenly Martial Emperor, his strength had increased rapidly. Unlike other cultivators, he didn’t have their bottlenecks. However, in order to establish a Sect, he wished to have the strength comparable to a Divine Emperor sooner rather than later.

Time gradually passed. One day, Lin Feng was gathering heavenly materials and earthly treasures in a valley with a circumference of several tens of miles. He discovered that the Yuan Energy was rich throughout the valley, and the Spirit Grass and Spirit Fruit were growing particularly well. As he was exploring diligently, he noticed someone chatting ahead.

"This fruit can be extracted directly."

"Let’s put the Primeval Essence into the precious bottle."

"Let’s go have a look over there..."

...

Lin Feng used his Divine Sense to find Tianqing and Tianzao collecting Spirit Grass; he knew eavesdropping like this wasn’t good, so he rose into the air and flew to their side...

He saw the two holding a light blue bottle containing some liquid, making him curious. Having heard the previous conversation, Lin Feng suddenly had a bold idea. Could it be that the Dragon Clan doesn’t need to refine elixirs by mixing Spirit Fruits but rather purifies individual Spirit Medicines to absorb their essence? This was unheard of for him; not only would it save time, but individual Spiritual Medicines would also be more beneficial for cultivators to absorb.

He then directly asked, "Senior, is this..."

Tianqing, seeing Lin Feng’s curiosity about the light blue bottle in her hand, smiled and said to him, "This is the Primeval Essence of Dragon Celosia Grass, the finest Spirit Grass for enhancing the Physical Body."

"How did it become a liquid form?" Lin Feng looked at the Dragon Celosia Grass with light blue berries growing on the ground and asked in amazement.

"Haha, that’s simple; it’s my unique Secret Technique." As Tianqing spoke, she looked at Lin Feng and extended her hand. The Dragon Celosia Grass flew into her delicate jade hand. As Tianqing grasped it, the Dragon Celosia Grass instantly turned into an essence-like liquid, jumping in her hand like a blue teardrop.

Amazing!

Lin Feng hadn’t expected such a Secret Technique from Tianqing. He knew this kind of Dragon Celosia Grass, even in his Eternal Divine Flame, would take over ten hours to transform into an essence liquid, but Tianqing merely squeezed it with her hand, and it melted into a liquid. How could she achieve this?

Seeing such a scene, Lin Feng curiously asked, "Aunt Tianqing, do these Primeval Essences still need to be refined into elixirs when we return?"

"No need, we from the Dragon Clan can just absorb these Primeval Essences," Tianzao replied.

"Yes, generally speaking, we don’t refine elixirs, and these Primeval Essences are more easily absorbed by us. We’re not sure if this works for you humans," Tianmu said, looking at Lin Feng. Then she handed him the bottle of Dragon Celosia Grass’s Primeval Essence.

Lin Feng looked at the two of them, then closed his eyes and drank it all in one go. At that moment, he felt every cell in his body come alive, and his blood flowed ceaselessly; he could clearly feel changes occurring in his body.
