Dragon Guardian Village had been hidden from the world for countless years.

However, on the night of Lord Xue's coming-of-age ceremony, the cave leading to the Dragon Habitat World suddenly collapsed, and at the moment of the collapse, a violent and bloodthirsty aura enveloped the entire village.

The people in the village began to go mad, engaging in a frenzied slaughter, leaving the village awash in blood!

Just when the village was on the brink of extinction, a domineering aura emerged, bringing clarity to the few remaining villagers. This domineering aura sealed the violent bloodthirsty aura within Lord Xue's body before disappearing.

The villagers believed Lord Xue to be an omen of disaster, blaming him for their misfortune. Consequently, the remaining villagers banished Lord Xue from the village and nullified the Cultivation Technique of the Dragon Guardian Clan he had been practicing.

With his body severely injured, Lord Xue left the Dragon Guardian Clan and fainted on a mountaintop outside the village that night.

This fainting spell, however, marked a turning point in Lord Xue's life.

During his unconsciousness, Lord Xue saw a Blood Fury Dragon flying through the skies and from observing it, he conceived a Cultivation Technique.

Upon awakening, Lord Xue began to practice this self-devised Cultivation Technique, finding that it bore a striking resemblance to the technique practiced by the Dragon Guardian Clan!

Years later, Lord Xue's strength had greatly advanced, and he embarked on his journey in the Martial Dao World.

"The Cultivation Technique practiced by Lord Xue is…"

Jiang Chen harbored a guess in his heart and continued reading.

What followed were records of Lord Xue's adventures in the Martial Dao World, which held little significance to Jiang Chen. However, the last few lines recorded on the last stone wall stunned him!

These lines, left to his steward—who was the progenitor of the Shadow Clan—were Lord Xue's last words before his death:

"When someone masters the Blood Fiend Mania Technique, and cultivates Blood Fiend Dragon Qi, he is to be regarded as my successor. Should there be one who possesses both the Blood Fiend Dragon Qi and the Ancestral Divine Dragon Qi, he is the rightful heir to both the Dragon Guardian Clan and myself.

Remember, my successor may be ignored, but the shared heir of the Dragon Guardian Clan and myself must be revered as the master, as only he can lead you back to glory!"

"Blood Fiend Mania Technique?! Blood Fiend Dragon Qi?! Ancestral Divine Dragon Qi? This...this couldn't be…" Jiang Chen felt an overwhelming surge in his heart, his emotions becoming extremely complex!

"Wait!"

Jiang Chen suddenly noticed a small script underneath Lord Xue's last words, seemingly added later on!

"Young Master, your servant remembers your commands, yet, even if only one masters the Blood Fiend Mania Technique, he too shall lead the Shadow Clan. This promise, your servant shall inscribe in our ancestral teachings; defiers will be expelled from the clan!"

After reading these final words, Jiang Chen fully understood; these were the added words by the progenitor of the Shadow Clan after recounting the life of the first Lord Xue, added some time later!

"Progenitor of the Shadow Clan, do you not realize that this decision almost led to the annihilation of the entire Shadow Clan?"

Jiang Chen sighed aloud, yet without a tone of blame; through the recounting of Lord Xue's life, he deeply felt the profound bond between the two.

"It seems, I need to seek out the Dragon Guardian Clan."

Jiang Chen spoke softly, finding many similarities with his own experiences in the information about the Dragon Guardian Clan's techniques and the Soul Martial Arts he practiced, prompting him to speculate.

"Only...how do I get out of here?"

Jiang Chen scratched his head, glancing around. Other than records on the four walls and the Luminous Pearl on the top, there was nothing else in the stone chamber, which puzzled Jiang Chen.

After pondering, Jiang Chen's face showed a hint of resignation as he muttered softly, "Could this be another test to see if I'm a descendant of Lord Xue?"

Buzzing!

As his words fell, a violent and bloodthirsty aura erupted from Jiang Chen, instantly filling the stone chamber, followed by a tremendous mist of bloody fog emanating from his body.

"Ao!"

Suddenly, a dragon's roar sounded, causing Jiang Chen's expression to change drastically as he quickly looked into his pocket.

Swoosh!

The Blood Crystal Stone in his pocket autonomously flew out, hovering in the center of the stone chamber.

Swish, swish!

"Ao!"

"Ao!"

The four walls of the room suddenly manifested four ethereal Blood Dragon shadows, each flying towards the crystal stone, circling around it as the chamber was instantly filled with the sound of dragon chants.

"What, what… what is happening?"

Jiang Chen, astonished, watched the dragon shadows in the air, his face full of shock.

On these dragon shadows, he distinctly felt the aura of his own Bloody Martial Soul, the ferocious Blood Dragon!

"Haha! Ancestral Dragon, I have finally outpaced you!" A boastful voice emanated from within Jiang Chen's body.

Jiang Chen's expression changed, his body shuddered violently.

"Ao!"

A resonant dragon chant came from within Jiang Chen's body, a streak of Bloody Radiance burst forth from the top of his head, followed closely by a tangible Blood Fury Dragon that shot out from Jiang Chen's head, hovering above him.

"You, you are…"

Jiang Chen stared in astonishment at the emerged Blood Fury Dragon, feeling a clear sense of blood connection filling his heart.

"Kid, you're still too weak. When you're stronger and can communicate with me on your own, you'll know everything you want to know. Remember, make time to visit that kid called Dragon Saint, there, you'll gain something else!"

With these instructions, the Blood Fury Dragon twisted its body and pounced towards the aerial Blood Crystal Stone.

"Ao!"

The Blood Fury Dragon swallowed the Blood Crystal Stone in one gulp, then opened its mouth and inhaled.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The four dragon shadows were all sucked into its mouth by the Blood Fury Dragon.

Swish!

Then, before Jiang Chen could react, the Blood Fury Dragon directly burrowed into his mind.

"Hey, can you tell me who you are? How are you inside my body?" Jiang Chen urgently shouted out.

"When you're able to find me, I will naturally tell you. Kid, hurry and become stronger; your time is running out!"

A fleeting voice echoed in Jiang Chen's mind, but no matter how much he searched, he couldn't find the source of the voice!

"Again with becoming stronger, why do I hate hearing this phrase so much!" Jiang Chen grumbled.

Rumble...

Suddenly, several rocks fell from one side of the stone chamber's wall, revealing a Palm Imprint on the wall.

"Again with this, can't it be something fresh?"

Jiang Chen glanced at the Palm Imprint, curled his lip, and stepped forward to place his hand on it.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a human-sized opening appeared on the side wall of the stone chamber.

Jiang Chen's face brightened, and he stepped into it.
