23 The Legacy of a God!

Eternal Frozen Land, one of the four Forbidden Lands:

The Courtyard of a beautiful home in a village:

A young girl stammered out of a room.

Her adorable face had a big frown. She was holding the hem of her dress and bit her bottom lip so much that it almost bled.

Then she strolled back and forth for a few minutes before she rushed back into the room.

"Aaaah." the silent courtyard was filled with a yelp.

Inside the room, the Young girl was gaping looking at the person on the bed.

On the bed was an incomparably beautiful woman. She slowly opened her exquisite eyes.

Almost instinctively, the lass jumped and hugged the Young Woman as tears fell from her adorable big eyes.

The lass sensed new wetness on her face, which obviously didn't belong to her own tears.

Looking up, she saw that the Young Woman's exquisite eyes were full of tears.

"Senior Sister Meng Xin, Why are you crying? Did you have a sad dream?" The lass held her hand.

"I don't even remember it. But I feel very melancholic, perhaps I didn't want to forget the dream." her tears dropped like a gentle waterfall.

She didn't know what happened, but she had a strong feeling that she forgot something she never should.

Melancholy hit her as she felt wronged for some reason.

A sense of longing filled her heart.

The bitterness and pain came out as the pearl of tears.

But she didn't want to be stopped by anything, she promised her. That is her Life Goal.

Even if she suffers injustice, even if heavens are unfair to her, she would never stop pursuing her goal.

Her will is firm.

Cultivation, Power, these are the only things she wanted since the last 8 years.

"Ke'er, did you inform master?" she wiped her tears.

"Not yet. I was about to inform her if you didn't wake up tonight." Ke'er sniffed back the tears.

Meng Xin gently patted her head, "Good. Don't worry master about this issue. I'm fine now. How long has it been?"

"Three days." The answer was like a thunderclap to her as she sat upright immediately.

She quickly accepted the truth " We can't change what has transpired. We'll go to the Eternal Frozen Land tomorrow. Be prepared."

"Un" the lass smiled and hopped.

If anyone heard this conversation, they would either be shocked listening to the conversation of these two girls or mock them for their pretense.

Eternal Frozen Land, one of the four forbidden Lands of the Red Star Continent.

A place rumored to be capable of freezing the space itself.

After sending the lass away, Meng Xin looked out of the window deep into the horizon, her eyes searched for what she lost.

***

"What the hell happened?" Sheng Tian touched his cheek feeling the soft and warm tears flowing down unceasingly.

Like a dam that broke, they didn't stop.

Somehow, he was very sad. It was like he lost something dear.

As he tried to recall the events that transpired, the familiar ancient voice sounded again breaking his train of thoughts "Congratulations, You passed all the three tests of the trial and gained the right to the inheritance."

"Grandpa Old Dragon Soul, what the heck did I see in my trial? Why don't I remember any of it? And why the fuck am I crying?" he slammed his fists on the ground.

The Dragon Soul was dumbfounded.

Bro, I just declared that you are gonna get the inheritance. Why do you seem to give no shit about it?

I mean, c' mon, I guarded this legacy for millions of years, at least show some fake excitement for my Old Soul so that I will at least feel that I'm not doing some shitty job all my life.

"Ahem. Young Lad, the trial is meant to test your courage and morals. You will face the moments based on your memories.

But you should be remembering them, no? And why the fuck are you crying?"

Hearing the Dragon's Soul reply, Sheng Tian almost spat out blood.

Why the fuck am I crying?

Shouldn't you be telling me? Why are you asking me? If you ask me, who should I ask?

And shouldn't your old soul refrain from spewing vulgarities?

"Damn, seems like even you know nothing." he shook his head.

The Dragon Soul was perplexed at the situation.

But he quickly disregarded the problem.

He got a serious issue to handle.

He peeked into Sheng Tian's fate.

A dazzling White light blinded his vision.

It tried to peek further when unending darkness devoured his sight.

The next moment it knew, its life force was sucked away.

It didn't have much time left.

However, it didn't regret.

Even if things revert back to normal, it would still check the fate of the destined one to make sure that the legacy of the Dragon God falls in the hands of someone who would rule heaven and earth.

All of a sudden, the entire Hall was lit up with a majestic golden light and Sheng Tian was at the center of the hall.

"The Dragon God was the most handsome Mythical God. Young Human, as his successor, I hope that you can uphold the fame of Dragon God and fame as an unprecedented pervert."

"This is the legacy you are destined no, the legacy destined to you." Saying so, the legendary legacy of a "God" was finally rewarded.

"Damn! Hold on! I, Sheng Tian, don't want that shitty legacy. I'm already too handsome for my own good and I'm not a pervert, the girls I meet totally are!" Sheng Tian yelled as his face showed a sincere expression.

"Curse you little bastard. You are surely his successor, not a bit less narcissist than him." Old Dragon Soul shook his head.

Then, it laughed out loud "I can see that you are going to become an even more shameless fellow than him. Hell Yeah! I'm proud of myself for finding you. Here you go."

A brilliant Golden light beam shot towards Sheng Tian and enveloped in a blinding golden light.

It slowly entered his body.

"Aaah" A heart-wrenching scream filled the hall as Sheng Tian experienced the sudden onslaught of pain.

Looking at the Young Man distorting in pain, the Dragon Soul muttered: "Sheng, this is not a test but rather the qualification for what you are going to inherit."

Sheng Tian didn't have the luxury to hear that. He only felt intense and overbearing pain in his Body.

There was something breaking havoc in his body and it was doing so without any restraint.

He couldn't summon an ounce of strength. He grits his teeth and endured the pain.

As time passed by, his blood turned heavier. His bones were stronger, his marrow became denser.

But the one common thing was every part of his body was burning.

His Profound Vein changed into the shapes resembling dragons, their resilience increased.

'His physique is changing rapidly and his Profound Veins changed to Dragon God Veins. From now on, he will be the Mythical Dragon God' The Dragon Soul was excited as it was witnessing the birth of the Future Dragon God.

'Next will be the most painful part and dangerous part, "Soul Bestowance". He has to gain the direct approval of the Soul Essence left behind by the Dragon God, this is the most difficult and painful part.

As a trial, the soul essence might first try to torture his soul and test his will. Maybe I should help him to stabilize his soul from pain when the time comes' Its thoughts continued.

It was not wrong. Which kind of pain hurt the most?

First, when you are kicked in the balls.

Second, Soul Pain.

The soul is the most sensitive region of a living being. It held the secrets of Life.

If the Dragon Soul knew about Xiao Lian's condition, it would definitely be shocked.

Simple because it is impossible for someone like her to endure so much pain whenever the poison relapses.

It was hellish torture that no one would want to go through. In fact, it is countless times more painful than the pain Sheng Tian was currently experiencing.

But Xiao Lian was willing to do it for some reason.

And she even used her profound energy to help Sheng Tian and have fun together despite the inevitable relapse it brings.

No one in the right mind in the Divine Realm would want to go through that.

Strangely, however, Xiao Lian never complained about this to Sheng Tian.

And If he saw Xiao Lian's Soul, then the words in his throat would be struck.

The reason- It is impossible for her to have a corporeal Soul body at her State.

Her cultivation may be too great to the current Sheng Tian but to the Dragon Soul which was once a part of the Divine Dragon God, it is only a drop of water in the ocean.

As for the reason for her Special Condition, perhaps only Xiao Lian knew.

But too bad, It didn't observe her and just froze her Soul the moment Sheng Tian entered this space just like a good dragon following the rules.

He didn't find anything strange or extraordinary with the body of Sheng Tian except his unusually dense and thick profound Energy. He couldn't even sense the Primal Tree in his dantian.

They both held secrets!

Right at this moment, A Golden Light shone in between Sheng Tian's eyebrows.

The Soul Bestowment has begun!

The Mythical Dragon God, though didn't cultivate in the way of Soul, had an extraordinary Soul due to his cultivation base.

It is a True Dragon Soul. A Dragon is the symbol of dominance and power.

Any cultivator having a dragon Soul has innate talents incomparable to others. If they cultivate their souls, they would be much stronger than others in the same realm and can use their soul to cultivate in the Dragon Arts.

'Here it comes.' Old Dragon Soul got ready to take action at any time.

One minute passed, two minutes passed, ...ten minutes passed. The expected shrieks and wails never arrived, totally freaking out the Dragon Soul.

But if someone were to observe the dimension of his consciousness a moment ago, they would be shocked to oblivion.

A gigantic Golden Dragon shot towards his Sea of Consciousness.

In the face of his Sea of Consciousness which was like a multiverse nebula, despite its gigantic size the Dragon Soul Essence seemed tiny.

However, it didn't stop the Dragon Soul Essence from having its arrogance.

With a heaven shaking roar, it shot towards the blinding White Soul in the middle.

Before it could even come close, a horrifying suction force, enough to suck anything pulled it in.

The dragon soul was dragged into the center like a helpless little kitten. And before it could even resist, it was assimilated into the Soul.

Sheng Tian's Soul now had a dazzling golden outline in addition to the blinding white light.

As his body was still accepting the legacy, he didn't notice the changes in his soul.

Sheng Tian's painful adventure continued for a few hours but he slowly got used to pain and stopped shouting.

After every part of his body was broken and healed, the torment ended.

Sheng Tian's bones now had a light golden outline. Even his flesh and blood had a bit of gold color.

The Dragon Soul couldn't help but shudder. It was closely watching all the changes happening to his body.

But what it saw was, the Dragon Bloodline in his body didn't act overbearingly and didn't push around his original blood showing the dominance it should.

Instead, it thoroughly mixed with his original blood and stayed calm like the rest of his blood.

What did this mean? Dragons are an extremely proud race. Their Bloodline is even more proud.

It won't simply be integrated without making issues, more so for the Blood of Dragon God, someone at the apex of all Dragons.

But what the hell happened?

A God's blood peacefully integrated itself into a mortal's blood without the slightest of repulsion!

What can frighten even a God?

Then, the Profound Veins in his body which now looked his Dragon Veins also started changing back to how they were before, yet their resilience didn't decrease.

And the most shocking thing was his physique that returned to its initial state, yet it seemed to contain every attribute of the Dragon God Physique!

Did his physique just absorb the Dragon God Physique?!

How can something like this happen?!

It didn't know what was happening even after scanning his body.

It only had one thought, this was something which even the Mythical Gods couldn't explain.

This is beyond the gods!

Meanwhile, Sheng Tian gasped for breaths.

He has Divine Dragon Marrow which will generate the Dragon's Blood continuously, strengthening his body from inside with every drop of blood.

He is no longer a mere mortal, but a Divine by his Physique itself. And his physique is of the highest level in Dragon Race! A Mythical God!

The Legacy ceremony, however, didn't stop there.

A ray of crimson light flashed as a glimmering golden beam shot into the forehead of Sheng Tian.

Then, three words appeared in his mind " Celestial Body Tome".

Sheng Tian was stunned.

This is a Body Cultivation Technique!

And it is the most profound technique he ever saw! Even Xiao Lian's profound arts had no comparison with it!

The requirements for it were: Very High Comprehension Ability, Heaven Defying Talent, Hard Work.

Anyone with a brain would understand the requirements were simply too high judging from the grandness of the technique's name alone.

The catch in this technique is that cultivating the initial stages will be a huge burden on the body, so much that Humans will explode in the worst case scenario and have bones broken, flesh squeezed and crippled in the best case.

Without having a proper foundation in the body, one cannot cultivate this Technique. And if one had a physique then it would be even great.

But this is just like setting a smoother road, you still have to work hard to move ahead.

Sheng Tian didn't know if his body had a physique after "Rebirth", but now that he got the Divine Dragon God's Marrow and blood along with changes in his constitution, he obtained "Dragon God Physique".

This alone made his body have a potential equal to Dragon God.

But was that really his limit?
