Xu Dong's hands trembled as he took the fruit. When the fruit landed in his hands, it actually let out a slight hum and a sorrowful cry, resounding from his throat and filling the entire passageway with his sorrowful wails. His tears seemed to be looking for a outlet to pour down.

Xu Mo Qiu, Xu Tianlong, he swore that one day, he would make them pay for their deaths with blood.

This is...

Xu Dong was a little astonished. The life changing fruit in his bosom was shaking more and more, as if it was guiding him. Gritting his teeth, he hesitated for a bit and decided to go take a look. No matter what, it was better than being eaten by the beasts in a daze.

As he walked along the road, Xu Dong kept his vigilance on his surroundings, afraid that a demon beast would jump out from some corner, but other than the moaning wind and the flying sand, there was nothing wrong with the surroundings. When he arrived at the end of the road in his mind, he saw the cave from afar.

When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he suddenly discovered that there was no wind or sand within five meters of the cave entrance. Suddenly, a strong wave of fear came from his heart, and he felt his legs soften, as if he was about to kneel on the ground.

Xu Dong grabbed onto a rock that was sticking out from the side, and only then was he able to stabilize his body.

Sweat quickly soaked his clothes. The intense fear made him want to run away, but it was as if there was a magnet under his feet that was preventing him from moving.

Xu Dong did not dare to act rashly, the life altering fruit in his embrace seemed to have sensed something and came out of his embrace, flying straight into the cave.

Xu Dong randomly extended his hand to grab and missed. Looking at the pitch black cave, he gritted his teeth and struggled to lift his foot to step inside, enduring the intense pressure and fear.

He knew that there had to be something terrifying inside, and it could even be a very high level demon beast. However, this life altering fruit was exchanged with his father's life, so no matter what, he had to get it back.

For some reason, compared to the outside, the fear and pressure inside the cave seemed to be much less. Xu Dong breathed in lightly, and his heart began to beat like a drum.

The life altering fruit finally stopped on a pile of white things. Xu Dong couldn't see it clearly.

Following which, he discovered that there was a candlestick in the cave, on top of it was an oil lamp. Xu Dong lit it up, and the weak light of the lamp illuminated a small area inside.

When he understood what was going on below him, he was shocked beyond words.

And that intense pressure and fear was emitted by this dragon bone.

Looking at this dragon bone, the fire in Xu Dong's eyes jumped. Absorbing the life altering fruit would require the blood and bones of a demon beast to guide it; the stronger the demon beast, the stronger it would be when it awakened.

The dragon bone was well-preserved, and just from its pressure alone, he knew that it must have been a hegemony. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been no demonic beasts around after its death, and he just didn't know why it had fallen here. If he could use this dragon bone as a guide …

His top priority right now was to awaken his Martial Spirit, otherwise he wouldn't even have the ability to protect himself!

After making up his mind, Xu Dong immediately took out the life altering fruit in his hand, swallowed it in one gulp, and then sat cross-legged on the dragon bone.

A huge force exploded within his body, and a tearing pain spread from all over his limbs and bones, as though he was going to tear him to pieces. Large beads of sweat fell from his body, Xu Dong groaned in pain, and quickly focused his attention.

After a moment, Xu Dong's body became as red as blood, and started to swell. The dragon bone that was originally like jade had turned red. A dragon's roar resounded through the sky as the red light in the entire cave gushed out.

What Xu Dong did not see was that behind him, a blood-red dragon was coiling around him. Its eyes were filled with pride as it examined him …
