Chapter 1534: The Leader Of The Blood Race
Ling Yun led the three women to the lowest room. They examined the rooms they passed; they found nothing but old, broken objects. Although the blood race used to have quite a large number of members in the past, they didn’t find any of their bones, leading them to believe that Jian Xieshen had destroyed them to the bone.
Since there was nothing on the upper floors, they hurried down to the lowest floor. The further they descended, the stronger the smell of blood became, and they sensed a powerful bloody aura emanating from there.
"Husband." Ye Jing hugged Ling Yun’s arm tightly, feeling extreme fear from that powerful bloody aura.
Ye Jing was not the only one who felt frightened by the smell of blood and that strong bloody aura, but Nu Wang also felt the same fear. Although Lu Yi looked fine, she also felt fear in her heart like the two women, and her body trembled slightly due to her fear.
Sensing their fear, Ling Yun enveloped them with his light aura. Even though it couldn’t eliminate their fear, at least it calmed them down a bit, and they no longer smelled that strong smell of blood.
Ling Yun still tried to check the lowest floor of the place, but his system map still couldn’t display anything, showing only a black screen. "This place is truly deep and dark! Even our light elements can’t illuminate the entire area on each floor."
"The most important thing is that there are no evil ghosts from the blood race in this place; otherwise, we will have a hard time fighting them, and we might even die at their hands." Ye Jing spoke in fear.
"I’ve lived for so long and gone through so many things, including when we faced Xie Zuzhou’s avatar in the past. However, I’ve never felt fear like this, and this fear is even more terrifying than when we faced that old devil. This bloody aura is far more terrifying than that old devil’s aura, and I feel that the owner of this aura could kill me like an ant if he or she were still alive." Nu Wang turned to Lu Yi, who was on full alert. "Do you also feel afraid because of this bloody aura?"
"Yes." Lu Yi raised her hand. "Even though I didn’t show my fear like you two, you guys can see for yourselves that my hands have been shaking quite hard since earlier, and I’m also sweating cold sweats. The atmosphere here, along with the blood race, gives me an unsettling feeling, and I want to leave as soon as possible. This bloody aura is much stronger than all the auras I have felt in the past, including the aura of that old devil."
"Don’t you feel anything, husband?"
"This bloody aura is terrifying, but it’s much weaker than Old Dragon or Huang Lingzhu’s. If you three had experienced their auras, I’m sure you wouldn’t feel afraid of it." Ling Yun released his chaos dragon aura to suppress the bloody aura, and the results were very effective as the three women looked calmer than before. "Are you three calmer now?"
"Yes."
"Good." Ling Yun then quickened his pace. "We have to reach the bottom floor as soon as possible, and we’ll find out what’s down there. You guys have to be ready and hold your weapons, so you’ll be ready if we have to face a sudden enemy."
After hearing that, the women immediately took out their respective weapons, and Ling Yun walked in front of them while holding the Chaos Dragon Broadsword.

As they arrived at the door that connected them to the lower floor, they felt a powerful pressure pressing down on their souls, making them feel even more terrified.
On the contrary, Ling Yun couldn’t feel any of the pressure because his soul was bound to the Old Dragon’s, and Long Hun was a primordial being when he was alive, so the pressure was meaningless to him.
Long Hun suddenly came out. "This bloody aura came from the past leader of the blood race, so I’m sure that her soul is down there now, and she’s been waiting for someone to meet her for a long time."
"She seems to have chosen Ying’er, Old Dragon."
"Yes." Long Hun turned to Ye Jing. "You three don’t have the blood element, but this little girl got it from a spirit race inheritance she received in the past, so I’m sure her soul is waiting for her."
"Husband."
Ling Yun turned to Ye Jing and patted her head. "I’m here with you, so you don’t have to be afraid of that woman’s soul. Although she was powerful in the past, she died a long time ago, so I’m sure her strength has weakened significantly. Her bloody aura is still as strong as before, but she can’t do anything to us, and she deliberately uses it to scare the people who managed to enter this place."
"Yeah."
"Let’s go downstairs and see her."
As they headed towards the ground floor, the bloody aura from the woman’s soul became stronger, but it wasn’t a big deal for them, as Ling Yun could protect them with Long Hun’s help.
.
.
.
When they arrived at the bottom floor of the place, they saw the soul of a woman behind an ancient coffin. Her appearance was different from that of most women, and her skin looked pale. "Long time no see, Long Hun."
Ling Yun and the three women turned to look at Long Hun, but he immediately floated in front of the women. "Please forgive me, Xue Jing."
"There’s nothing to forgive between us," Xue Jing replied with a shake of her head. "At that time, I didn’t understand why you didn’t come to save us, but seeing you like this made me realize why you didn’t come then. However, I didn’t expect that the mighty Primordial Chaos Dragon would also die like me, and your death really surprised me."
"Haha." Long Hun laughed at that. "When Jian Xieshen attacked this domain, I was busy with an important matter that would determine the fate of this universe, so I couldn’t come to save you and your race from him."
"The fate of this universe?"
"Yes." Long Hun turned to Ling Yun, who created a qi screen and showed Xue Jing the danger. "As you can see, a terrible danger has appeared in the outer reaches of this universe, and the darkness is steadily advancing towards us. That darkness has already engulfed many planets in the outermost area, and it will continue to destroy all planets until it reaches this realm. In the past, I tried to prevent that darkness from ever appearing, but all my efforts ended in vain."
"Where does that darkness come from?" Xue Jing asked, looking into the darkness on the screen.
"My father." Xue Jing returned her gaze to Long Hun and frowned. "The darkness appeared not because of my father’s will, but all living beings in this universe play a vital role in its emergence, and I have tried various ways to stop it from happening. Even though I am the primordial chaos dragon, my father created me imperfect, and I cannot fight him. I have searched for many ways to stop the danger from destroying our universe, but I was unable to find any solution to stop it until I heard a prophecy from someone in the past."
"A prophecy?"
"Yes." Xue Jing followed Long Hun’s gaze to Ling Yun. "The prophecy spoke of him, the man with nine elements."
"Nine... Nine elements!" Xue Jing stammered and looked at Ling Yun in shock.
"Yes." Long Hun nodded at her. "After I learned the prophecy about him, I had a crazy idea. If I can’t stop the danger, what if the owner of the nine elements has my Chaos Dragon Bloodline and becomes my successor in the future? I was initially hesitant to risk my life, but I chose to sacrifice myself for the safety of this universe and all living beings within it."
"How did you die in the end?" Xue Jing asked Long Hun, but her eyes were glued to Ling Yun.
"Do you really want to know how I died?
"Yes! You were the Primordial Chaos Dragon, a powerful being who was nearly impossible to kill."
"Hahaha!" Long Hun laughed before telling Xue Jing about the process of his death at the hands of Huang Lingzhu, which left her speechless while rubbing her forehead. "Hey! I know what you’re thinking, but no other living creature can kill me, so I was forced to arrange everything so that she would kill me. Moreover, you don’t know her, but I know that she will do anything to save this universe from destruction, and the result is as I expected because she gave my bloodline to Ling Yun. From that day on, he has become my successor, and the next Primordial Chaos Dragon will be born in this universe once again through him."
"Are you sure your successor will succeed in stopping the darkness and saving this universe?"
Long Hun smirked at her question. "Have you ever met a living being with nine elements before? Uh, correction, he has ten elements now, and he also possesses my Primordial Chaos Dragon Bloodline. He may be weak now, but I believe he can stop that darkness and defeat my father in the future. Unfortunately, that time is not our time, and we won’t be able to witness the outcome."
