Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 640: Star Giant Dragon, Seven Star Mark
"Thank you, Senior Dragon God!"
Upon hearing the Star Dragon’s words, the Clan Leader of the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan, the man in the yellow robe, was deeply moved. Tears streamed down his face, his knees gave way, and he knelt on the ground.
The Senior Dragon God was righteous and benevolent, and his kindness to the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan was as immense as a mountain.
"Heh, I shall disperse now..."
Seeing this, the Star Dragon smiled faintly.
Its translucent dragon body began to slowly dissolve.
An arcane power descended from the heavens.
At this moment, the entire Drilling Sky Mouse Clan fell into a dreamlike trance, no longer perceiving any external changes.
With a flash, Ye Yun appeared before the Star Dragon.
"Who are you?"
The Star Dragon was startled by Ye Yun’s sudden appearance.
It stared at Ye Yun in horror. At this moment, it found itself unable to perceive the cultivation base of this white-robed young man.
HUM!
Ye Yun’s body swayed slightly, and a wisp of the Ancestor Dragon’s breath pressed down.
"Could this be... Lord Ancestor Dragon?"
The Star Dragon was incredibly shocked. Its body trembled with excitement, and in an instant, it prostrated itself at Ye Yun’s feet.
"Greetings, Lord Ancestor Dragon!"
Sensing the powerful suppressive force from the bloodline within its body, the Star Dragon unhesitatingly kowtowed and acknowledged Ye Yun as its superior.
The Ancient Dragon Clan all heed the commands of the Ancestor Dragon alone.
Even the Ten Super Divine Dragons were no exception.
The suppression by bloodline power is a tangible reality, known to every member of the Dragon Clan.
"What is the exact nature of your entanglement with the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan?" Ye Yun asked indifferently, his hands clasped behind his back.
"Reporting to Lord Ancestor Dragon, several million years ago, my true body was rescued by the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan. To express my gratitude back then, I left behind seven Dragon Scales..." the Star Dragon said in a low voice.
Ye Yun sighed and asked, "Can you still sense your true body?"
"I can no longer sense it. It must have perished long ago..." the Star Dragon said with a sorrowful expression.
"Your Star Dragon clan is under the jurisdiction of the Star Giant Dragon. Do you know the whereabouts of the Star Giant Dragon at that time?" Ye Yun asked softly.
"Lord Ancestor Dragon, I am not clear on that either. Back then, the Dragon Clan was in turmoil, and a chaotic battle erupted among the Ten Super Divine Dragons. Lord Star Giant Dragon also went missing inexplicably during the fighting!" the Star Dragon said, its face etched with sorrow.
Recalling that earth-shattering war from several million years ago, it still found it difficult to conceal the sorrow in its heart.
That was an internal conflict within the Dragon Clan.
In that battle, the various factions of the Dragon Clan suffered grievous casualties.
"That Formation, the one created from the seven Dragon Scales you left behind—where did you learn it?" Ye Yun’s interest was piqued, and he asked in a solemn voice.
"Reporting to Lord Ancestor Dragon, these are some ordinary star-related Formations that Lord Star Giant Dragon taught us back then..." the Star Dragon replied honestly.
"Formations taught by the Star Giant Dragon?"
A glint flashed in Ye Yun’s eyes as he recalled the Formation from just now.
The Formation moments ago had manifested from the seven Dragon Scales. Although there was still a large disparity compared to a Seven-star formation, it did bear some slight resemblances, after all.
"Lord Ancestor Dragon, Lord Star Giant Dragon once obtained a powerful Divine Skill from an ancient ruin. The Formations we learned are said to have been transformed from that Divine Skill..." the Star Dragon continued.
"What Divine Skill is this?" Ye Yun asked with a frown.
"We are not sure either. However, after Lord Star Giant Dragon succeeded in its Cultivation, an additional Seven Star Mark appeared on its forehead," the Star Dragon said, reminiscing.
"What? A Seven Star Mark?"
Ye Yun blurted out, utterly stunned for a moment.
Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes has also dragged the Star Giant Dragon, one of the Super Divine Dragons, into this?
Thinking of this, Ye Yun unhesitatingly activated the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye.
A power, characterized by the fluctuations of life and death, creation and destruction, then invaded the Star Dragon’s memories.
After retracting this power, Ye Yun’s expression turned grim.
The Star Dragon had not lied.
This particular Star Dragon happened to have witnessed the Star Giant Dragon’s appearance on the eve of the great war.
And on the Star Giant Dragon’s forehead, there was indeed a silver Seven Star Mark.
Previously, there was the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon hunting the Dark Heavenly Dragon, and now there’s also a Star Giant Dragon! Heh... Among the Ten Super Divine Dragons, just how many have betrayed the Dragon Clan? Ye Yun mused internally.
As he progressed, he could increasingly feel the power of the mastermind behind the scenes. The Big Dipper constellation was like a nightmare, woven through everything from beginning to end. Even in the Divine Land, no one knew the origin of this Big Dipper. And the only clue Ye Yun possessed was the ethereal and unpredictable Seven-Star Mound.
"Perhaps one cannot judge that the Star Giant Dragon has betrayed the Dragon Clan solely based on the Seven Star Mark..." Ye Yun suddenly said softly.
Currently, he had far too few clues regarding the Star Giant Dragon. He couldn’t conclude that it had definitely become a traitor to the Dragon Clan, like the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon.
With a gentle wave of Ye Yun’s hand, the Star Dragon’s phantom swiftly vanished.
It transformed into seven streaks of flowing light and returned into the Seven-sided Star Shield.
In the short term, the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan would be unable to summon the Star Dragon’s phantom again.
Ye Yun reached out and grasped; a silver radiance suddenly appeared before him, transforming into a small silver silkworm—none other than the Immortal Divine Silkworm.
"Little Silkworm, leave a clone behind. It will be sufficient to protect the Drilling Sky Mouse Clan and ensure their safety for ten thousand years," Ye Yun instructed.
"Alright, Master!"
The Immortal Divine Silkworm readily agreed. With a slight shake, a silver speck of light appeared within the Bottomless Pit.
Then, the silver speck of light quickly hid itself.
It could create tens of millions of clones; leaving one clone here would not affect its true body in any way.
"Let’s go. Business in the Bottomless Pit is concluded. Next, we need to make a trip to Shenluo Tian to take a look..."
Thinking of the Town Dragon Tablet, Ye Yun chuckled softly. With a wave of his wide sleeve, he instantly vanished from sight.
The Immortal Divine Silkworm also followed.
「Back on the carriage」
After returning to the carriage, Ye Yun reached out and grabbed the Sky-boring Rat, pulling it back.
In Ye Yun’s view, the Sky-boring Rat and the Big Black Cat formed a cat-and-mouse pair of feuding rivals. They would make his journey ahead quite delightful.
Finding himself back on the carriage, the Sky-boring Rat shivered abruptly, still not understanding what had transpired.
"Cat Brother, was I just dreaming? Did Shenluo Tian come to attack our Bottomless Pit?" the Sky-boring Rat asked, looking left and right with a bewildered expression.
"How could you have been dreaming?"
The Big Black Cat’s eyes narrowed slightly as it let out a scornful laugh.
"I understand now..."
The Sky-boring Rat slapped its thigh, a look of sudden realization dawning on its face.
Just now, their Drilling Sky Mouse Clan must have relied on that ancient Seven-sided Star Shield to summon a Divine Dragon and forcefully repel Shenluo Tian’s army. The reason it could appear here was likely due to the Master’s grand gesture. He must have directly captured it and brought it back.
"My Star Shield..."
The Sky-boring Rat touched its storage ring, only to find the Star Shield missing, and its expression became dejected.
It also understood that now that it was to accompany the Master, it would probably never be able to get that Star Shield back from the Clan Leader.
SWISH!
A black horsetail descended from mid-air, forcefully knocking the Sky-boring Rat back into its true form.
"Still so ignorant of the rules now that you’re on the carriage?"
The Big Black Horse grinned, baring its teeth, and snorted.
"Uncle Ma, I was a bit out of it just now, my sincerest apologies!"
Its heart pounded in fear. The Sky-boring Rat didn’t dare to get up. It could only lie prone on the carriage floor, repeatedly begging for mercy.
Its gaze shifted, and suddenly its eyes lit up with fervor.
It had actually discovered an incredible piece of black Battle Armor on the Big Black Cat’s lap!
WHOOSH! It lunged forward, raising its upper body, and carefully sniffed the black Battle Armor with its delicate snout.
After a few seconds, the Sky-boring Rat exclaimed, its face a mask of utter shock, "Heavens! This couldn’t possibly be an Emperor Level Battle Armor, could it?!"
