Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 827: Chapter 827: Nirvana and Rebirth

”Who am I — you are not qualified to ask!”

Ye Yun smiled indifferently.

At the moment, he held Little Seven’s hand and approached the side of the white egg.

Emperor Heimang also followed closely.

”Crystal Essence Dragon, how long have you been alive?”

Ye Yun asked calmly.

Inside the white egg.

The Crystal Essence Dragon was silent for a moment, then slowly said after a few seconds: ”I don’t remember either, it should be several million years...”

”Alive for so long!”

Ye Yun was somewhat surprised.

Although the Crystal Essence Dragon hadn’t hatched yet, if it had lived for millions of years, wouldn’t that mean it most likely lived during the civil war among the Ten Super Divine Dragons?

”You’ve been alive for millions of years, why haven’t you hatched?”

Ye Yun asked.

”Back then, a heaven-shaking war broke out within the Dragon Clan, my mother was prematurely born during the battle, gave birth to me before she died, causing me to be innately deficient, and I develop much slower than other Dragons...”

The Crystal Essence Dragon said sadly.

”Haha, turns out you’re a premature dragon!”

Buddha Flame Root scoffed.

”Noisy!” Ye Yun’s gaze cooled, and he said indifferently, ”If you don’t shut up quickly, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

”The lesson you’ve given isn’t enough? If you’re capable, then kill me!”

Buddha Flame Root roared arrogantly.

”Stasis!”

Ye Yun pointed a finger, activating the Stasis Technique, instantly immobilizing the three main roots inside the white egg.

This time, Ye Yun immobilized Buddha Flame Root’s soul and thoughts together.

Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.

”Brother, your Divine Skill is really impressive!”

Little Seven said with a smile, her eyes curving into crescent moons.

”It’s okay, I’ll teach you this Divine Skill later, and if anyone annoys you, just point your finger at them and freeze them there...”

Ye Yun smiled.

”Great, great!”

Little Seven clapped her hands excitedly and laughed.

By the side, Emperor Heimang couldn’t help but shiver, thinking that if this mischievous little girl learned the Stasis Technique, many people might suffer.

Ye Yun looked at the white egg, frowned slightly and said, ”Although you’re innately deficient, isn’t the long span of millions of years enough for you to hatch?”

”The battle among Dragons shattered almost the entire continent, seriously damaging this world. Even the Divine Nature within nature’s spiritual energy disappeared.

Without Divine Nature, my recovery speed is very slow!”

The Crystal Essence Dragon said in a low voice.

”Hmm!”

Ye Yun nodded silently.

Millions of years ago, the original Dragon Hidden Continent was home to countless Dragons, and at that time, the spiritual energy in the air was almost no different from Divine Land, containing an abundance of Divine Nature.

Thus, the cultivation base of all Dragons on Dragon Hidden Continent was very high, their overall combat power even surpassing the Spirits of Divine Land.

But the battle of the Super Divine Dragons was so earth-shaking, mountains shattered, the earth cracked, and the ley lines were severely damaged.

The Divine Nature in the spiritual energy also mysteriously disappeared.

The disastrous aftermath of this fearsome battle led the continent’s future beings to only absorb ordinary spiritual energy, progressing slowly in cultivation... Breaking through to the True God Realm became extremely difficult.

This Crystal Essence Dragon, if hatched back then, would have naturally been a True God.

But it was born deficient, and the subsequent world lacked spiritual energy with Divine Nature, so it failed to hatch over millions of years.

After a million years, the dragon egg was occasionally obtained by Emperor Heimang but was seen as ominous by the Black Divine Sect for constantly absorbing others’ Yuan Qi, and ultimately Emperor Heimang suppressed it deep underground.

This further cut off its path to hatching.

It is said, blessings never come in pairs, misfortunes never come alone.

This rare Buddha Flame Root emerged from nowhere, destroyed the suppressing Black Pagoda, and invaded the Crystal Essence Dragon within the egg.

If Ye Yun hadn’t conveniently appeared, this dragon egg might have been completely absorbed by Buddha Flame Root within a few thousand years.

”This dragon egg truly has a troubled fate...”

Ye Yun couldn’t help but sigh at this realization.

”Young master, my body is already invaded by this damn Buddha Flame Root, can you still save me?”

The Crystal Essence Dragon suddenly asked.

Its voice, though soft, revealed a strong desire to live.

Ye Yun could hear that this small dragon very much wanted to survive.

”Yes, as long as you’re not afraid to die.”

Ye Yun smiled.

Not afraid to die?

The Crystal Essence Dragon was stunned, not understanding Ye Yun’s meaning.

It hadn’t reacted yet.

”Ah!”

Buddha Flame Root screamed miserably as Ye Yun suddenly forcefully pulled out its two thick roots from the dragon egg.

An indescribable pain instantly swept through its body.

The Crystal Essence Dragon’s consciousness began to blur, it stared at Ye Yun dumbfounded, incredulously saying, ”Why’d you act so brutally? Am I about to die?”

”Without acting brutally, how could I pull out Buddha Flame Root?”

Ye Yun smiled nonchalantly, saying, ”Go ahead and die in peace, as they say, ’You must experience Nirvana to be reborn!’”

”Nirvana?”

The Crystal Essence Dragon muttered these two words, and instantly lost consciousness, dying.

At this moment, the Crystal Essence Dragon truly died.

Beside them, Emperor Heimang’s pupils constricted seeing this scene.

Earlier, he understood Ye Yun’s intention was to save this dragon.

However, as Buddha Flame Root was pulled out, the Crystal Essence Dragon was already dead.

Dead... could it still be revived?

Little Seven blinked, looking shocked, and asked in a low voice: ”Brother, did the Crystal Essence Dragon die?”

”Don’t worry, even if it’s dead, I can bring it back.”

Ye Yun said indifferently.

Then he took out an Eight Treasures Liuli Bottle.

In the next second, a drop of Three Lights Divine Water pierced through the air, landing inside the egg.

Inside the dragon egg, the scene was horrifying.

Due to Buddha Flame Root being pulled out, the half-hatched Crystal Essence Dragon was covered with massive bloody holes, densely packed, extremely terrifying.

The Three Lights Divine Water entered the body of the Crystal Essence Dragon.

A tri-colored radiance blossomed into beautiful brilliance, enveloping it.

The Three Lights Divine Water started to take effect at this moment, swiftly healing the bloody holes on the Crystal Essence Dragon’s body.

Within just a few breaths.

The injuries on the surface of the Crystal Essence Dragon were completely healed.

At this moment, its consciousness also recovered.

”How am I alive again? Wasn’t I dead just now?”

The Crystal Essence Dragon opened its eyes, incredulously looked at its body, finding all wounds were healed.

”Thank you for your help, benefactor!”

The Crystal Essence Dragon was emotionally moved, tears streamed down, it raised its claws within the dragon egg and bowed to Ye Yun from afar.

”Hmm!” Ye Yun’s gaze shifted, he smiled deeply and said: ”Although you’ve revived, your body is still very weak...”

”Benefactor, I’ve been absorbed by this wicked Buddha Flame Root for hundreds of thousands of years, if I want to recover, it would take a very long time...”

The Crystal Essence Dragon sighed.

”No need for so long, whatever Yuan Qi he absorbed from you, I’ll make him spit it back out...”

Ye Yun smiled lightly.

He suddenly extended his hand, grasping several main roots and numerous root tendrils suspended in mid-air.

A vast and mighty power suddenly descended on all the root tendrils.

The powerful energy squeezed out nearly all the energy absorbed by Buddha Flame Root.

This process was quick.

Buddha Flame Root only screamed twice before quickly becoming weak and falling into a coma.

Ye Yun tossed Buddha Flame Root aside, opened his palm, and a blazing energy sphere shone with myriad rays.

”For you, Little Dragon!”

Ye Yun smiled, and lightly flicked his hand.

The energy sphere fell into the white egg.

After consuming the energy sphere, the aura of the Crystal Essence Dragon dramatically surged at this moment.
