Chapter 1774: Chapter 1777: Sky Dragon Claw of the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon

"What kind of dragon claw is this? Dragon Emperor? Dragon King? Even the claw of the Progenitor Dragon shouldn’t possess such overwhelming power. The owner of this dragon claw has been dead for countless ages, at least hundreds of thousands of years, yet it still contains such immense power?"

Chu Fengmian stared at that dragon claw, utterly astonished in his heart.

At the moment this dragon claw appeared, Chu Fengmian felt the bloodline within him boiling with an immeasurable craving.

If this dragon claw were to be obtained by Chu Fengmian and integrated into his Dragon Emperor bloodline, it would cause his bloodline to undergo a cataclysmic transformation.

"The Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw!"

Countless thoughts swirled in Chu Fengmian’s mind; the dragon claw before him could only be the claw of the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon.

The legendary Ancestor of Ten Thousand Dragons, the Innate Divine Beast, only the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw could still contain such formidable power after countless ages.

Chu Fengmian once obtained the heart of a Swallowing Beast, but it seemed to be dormant. Yet deep within it, Chu Fengmian could sense an alarming power.

So, even using the power of the Swallowing Beast’s heart to drive the Swallowing Heaven Secret Technique, while the power of the technique could be enhanced several-fold, Chu Fengmian dared not easily use the Swallowing Beast’s heart.

Yet this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw before him was not dormant, and the array containing its power was still intact, though it had lost its Spiritual Power.

Under the combined urging of the old relics in the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm, the power of this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw was continuously being awakened.

"This is the foundation of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm, no wonder they dare claim they can kill Long Qianjue. Though not a heavenly-level Spiritual Artifact, the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw is far more powerful than one!"

Chu Fengmian felt that even if he used the power of the fragments of the Emperor’s Jar, it was far inferior to this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Once the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw is activated, its might is such that even a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert would struggle to withstand it.

Chu Fengmian’s entire body trembled; he couldn’t allow these old relics of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm to activate this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Even with Chu Fengmian’s current strength, combined with the Heavenly Star River, it was difficult to resist the sharpness of this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Moreover, the moment Chu Fengmian saw this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw, he was filled with the desire to obtain it.

If he could get the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw and integrate it into his body, it would purify his bloodline power innumerable times, causing immediate bloodline transformation.

To any Dragon Clan member, the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw holds great significance. If Chu Fengmian obtained it, his power would likely surge immensely.

Even when facing the Young Emperor, Chu Fengmian could confront him head-on, perhaps even defeat him.

Yet now, this Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw has fallen into the hands of these old relics of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm.

These old relics, through some unknown means, have actually refined the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw, capable of injecting Spiritual Power into it to activate it.

"The old relics of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm haven’t fully refined the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw!"

Suddenly, Chu Fengmian’s eyes gleamed as his Spiritual Sense quietly infiltrated, discovering that the old relics had only controlled part of the arrays on the claw.

In reality, the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw is still a masterless object; the old relics are merely leveraging part of its array’s power for combat.

Learning this news, Chu Fengmian’s demeanor became exceptionally excited. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Since it’s masterless, it means Chu Fengmian also has the opportunity to seize control of the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Having cultivated the Battle Dragon Technique and now possessing the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon Emperor, theoretically, Chu Fengmian has a better chance than the old relics of refining the claw.

However, Chu Fengmian must find a way to get close to the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Those old relics seemingly won’t give Chu Fengmian such a chance.

Once Ling Shan brought out the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw, it symbolized the old relics’ determination to kill Chu Fengmian.

Five other half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts, along with dozens of Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors, simultaneously acted, converging their Spiritual Power.

Streams of Spiritual Power poured into the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw.

Suddenly, the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw seemed to come to life, crashing towards Chu Fengmian with the force of a thunderbolt.

A gigantic claw, hundreds of feet long, bore down on Chu Fengmian, sweeping away everything.

This claw’s power exceeded by countless multiples that of Chu Fengmian’s own War Dragon’s Claw.

Even though the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon has fallen, the claw, possessing just a fraction of its power, is enough to annihilate a Heavenly God.

Innate Divine Beasts are comparable to peak ninth-level Immortals, the realm of the Immortal Emperor.

Records even suggest that Innate Divine Beasts surpass the Immortal Emperor in power.

Even with the joint efforts of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm’s old relics, they could only unleash a tenth of the power contained within the claw, yet it’s still overwhelmingly terrifying.

Chu Fengmian’s face was extremely grave, aware of the claw’s immense power, he dared not take it lightly, channeling the power of the Heavenly Star River around him as the first line of defense.

The Divine Tree’s shadow then enveloped Chu Fengmian, forming a second line of defense.

The third line of defense, the final one, came from the crystalized blood and flesh within Chu Fengmian’s body.

The power of these blood and flesh crystals, pushed to their limit by Chu Fengmian, formed an impenetrable defense, merging into one.

Meeting power with power, attempting to match the Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw’s might was tantamount to seeking death.

All Chu Fengmian could do was strive to withstand the claw’s power.

Rumble!

The Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw swept down, shattering everything; under its force, all seemed to be annihilated.

The first line of defense, the Heavenly Star River, was broken in an instant.

Even the power of the Heavenly Star River, stronger than any ordinary half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert, was like a mayfly shaking a tree before the claw, torn apart in a blink.

The Ancestor Heavenly Dragon’s Claw then smashed into the Divine Tree’s shadow.

Chu Fengmian only felt the Divine Tree within him shaking violently.
