Chapter 1172: A Multicolored World!

The Dragon Clan was a race that placed bloodline above all else, and they naturally understood what this meant. Even though they were Dragon Knights, at this moment, their eyes could not help but turn fervent. They all understood that if they could reach this step themselves, their strength would definitely improve further.

“I think we can try it out first,” Huang Liangwei said, his sharp gaze sweeping over the other three Dragon Knights.

Long Chaoyang smiled faintly, but Luo Lan curled his lip.

Luo Yayuan frowned slightly and said, “When will you ever fix that selfish habit of yours? Do you think this can be kept secret? If we don’t report it and try it on our own, what do you think the Head will think? Can you withstand the Head’s fury?”

Huang Liangwei’s facial muscles twitched, and he said sheepishly, “I was just saying that. Of course, we have to report it to the Head.”

Luo Yayuan said, “Keep observing and see how long she absorbs it for. What we can confirm now is that this energy has brought about some fundamental changes in her. But it’s still hard to say how much this fundamental change can help her improve, mainly depending on how much output there is.”

Huang Liangwei said, “She’s not going to drain all this energy inside the Rising Dragon Platform, is she?”

Luo Lan could not hold back any longer. “Shut your stinking mouth. How big is the Rising Dragon Platform? Even we can’t drain it, and you think a tiny little non-god-rank dragon like her can empty all that energy? Think before you speak.”

“Luo Lan, do you want to fight?” Huang Liangwei snapped, embarrassed and furious.

“Fight you? You’re not even on my level,” Luo Lan said dismissively, even wagging his index finger at Huang Liangwei.

“Enough, both of you, be quiet. Just wait.” Luo Yayuan’s eyes flickered, and his aura suddenly became imposing. This change made both Huang Liangwei and Luo Lan pause. They had been Dragon Knights together for so many years that they naturally recognized this as a sign of Luo Yayuan’s anger.

The fury of a fifth-ranked Dragon Knight was not something they could withstand. Although there were eighteen Dragon Knights, the top five were fundamentally different from the other thirteen in overall strength.

The four Dragon Knights fell silent and watched Lan Xuanyu, who lay there absorbing the dragon energy. The multicolored scales spread from Lan Xuanyu’s chest across his entire body, and as they did, the bloodstains on him vanished, reabsorbed by those multicolored scales back into his body. Lan Xuanyu’s previously pale face gradually regained some color, as if his blood had been replenished.

Evolution? His bloodline was truly evolving! Unlike the pure power from before, there was now more mystery and transformation.

No one knew how much time passed before Lan Xuanyu’s consciousness gradually came back. His awareness first appeared in his spiritual sea, and he was astonished to find a layer of multicolored liquid floating atop it. Not only that, his entire body seemed filled with an immensely powerful Dragon God bloodline force. He had cultivated for so many years, and his Dragon God bloodline had always been measured in drops within the bloodline vortex.

But now, his entire body had suddenly turned completely multicolored. This really caught him off guard!

“Master, don’t move, whatever you do. Don’t show any weakness. The four Dragon Knights outside are all watching you!” The Treasure Seeking Beast’s urgent voice sounded.

“Little Trea, what happened to me? Did it work?” Lan Xuanyu asked in his spiritual sea.

The Treasure Seeking Beast’s figure appeared, and it said excitedly, “You were right. Your blood triggered a reaction from the Rising Dragon Pillar, and it gave you back the Dragon God’s energy. That was the old master’s true power—I never thought it would be stored inside the Rising Dragon Pillar. It’s only at a low level, but it is indeed Dragon God bloodline power. I can sense that the energy inside the Rising Dragon Pillar is practically endless! The old master must have left something special in there. But the Rising Dragon Pillar responds only to you, and with those four guys guarding around it, I don’t dare investigate. Still, I believe that once you break through to god rank, you’ll definitely be able to find out exactly what’s inside.”

Lan Xuanyu silently sensed the changes in his body and was overjoyed. The severe injuries he had sustained earlier had all healed, and most importantly, the Dragon God bloodline within him was so active. At this moment, he could barely even sense the Golden Dragon King bloodline or the Silver Dragon King bloodline anymore. If this much Dragon God bloodline energy could temper his body, perhaps he could even complete his first full-body tempering! This harvest was truly immense.

“I understand. I’ll wake up soon. Help me keep up the disguise,” Lan Xuanyu said.

“No problem, don’t worry.”

Lan Xuanyu carefully sensed his bodily changes once more before slowly “waking up.” He opened his eyes and immediately felt the enormous pressure around him. The grayish protective barrier made his surroundings feel dim. He blinked, his body somewhat stiff, not because he had lain still for too long, but because the Dragon God bloodline energy inside him was so abundant that his body felt a bit swollen.

“Awake? How do you feel?” a concerned voice asked.

Lan Xuanyu struggled to sit up. Sure enough, the four Dragon Knights were gathered around him, all staring at him with burning gazes, their eyes extremely eager.

“Lord Luo Lan, and all you lords.” Lan Xuanyu feigned alarm and hurriedly bowed. He was genuinely a little flustered! Facing four Super God-rank powerhouses at once—if he weren’t flustered, he wouldn’t be normal.

Luo Lan said gently, “It’s all right. You’ve had an extraordinary stroke of luck. Calm yourself first, then tell us how you feel.”

“Yes, sir.” Lan Xuanyu sat cross-legged, quietly focused inward for a moment, then opened his eyes again, his gaze filled with bewilderment and surprise. “Colors. Everything I see is multicolored. What happened to me? Did you lords help me? Why has everything inside my body turned multicolored?”

The four Dragon Knights exchanged glances. Luo Lan coughed and said, “It wasn’t us. You encountered something special. Your blood seemed to have stirred the energy inside the Rising Dragon Platform, which washed over your body. In a sense, this counts as a bloodline evolution.”

Lan Xuanyu froze. “Evolution? What kind of evolution?”

Luo Yayuan said in a deep voice, “Evolution in a positive direction. You should know the origins of the Dragon Clan—we were born after the Dragon Transformation Era, evolving from different original species. The purer the bloodline, the higher its level, and the more it embodies draconic traits. Your own bloodline was already very high-level. It seems your blood triggered the energy within the Rising Dragon Platform, causing your bloodline to undergo a process similar to another dragon transformation. Though it didn’t last long, it elevated your bloodline to another level, which will greatly benefit your future strength. As for why this happened, further study is needed. Go back for now and carefully sense your changes. After this Rising Dragon Competition ends, the Alliance will provide you with guidance.”

“Thank you, Dragon Knight lords.” Lan Xuanyu maintained a confused expression and bowed to the four Dragon Knights.

A gray light descended, lifting the isolation from the outside world. Only then did Lan Xuanyu realize that evening had already fallen; he had been unconscious for quite a long time. Today’s Rising Dragon Competition had long ended, and the other dragons had all left. Only Bai Xiuxiu waited anxiously outside. Seeing him emerge, she was overjoyed, and only with a gesture from Lan Xuanyu did she manage to control her emotions.
