Chapter 47 Mountain Dragon King
"Damn it!"
Yu Tianyun couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Sure enough! I shouldn't have been so happy so soon!"
Fortunately, the force that sent him flying was not too great. With Yu Tianyun now fully transformed into a dragon, and with his physical attributes greatly enhanced from absorbing the dragon cloud, his defense was already extremely strong.
Although the whole process seemed quite grand, it did not actually cause him any real harm.
"It seems I was too naive and simplistic in my thinking. To think I could obtain a soul bone so easily was simply a pipe dream!"
Yu Tianyun's expression darkened slightly, but then a glimmer of hope rekindled within him.
"Perhaps that soul bone can only be activated this once? We can't give up now! Let's try again!"
Clinging to a sliver of hope, Yu Tianyun took a deep breath, rallied his spirits, and returned to the soul bone, carefully reaching out to touch it.
The moment his fingertips touched the soul bone, black energy waves suddenly burst forth from the black soul bone.
Even though Yu Tianyun was mentally prepared, it was still to no avail. He was once again slammed into the cliff wall like a cannonball.
Yu Tianyun slid down the cliff in a disheveled state, his clothes torn and tattered, making him look messy and unkempt.
His inner resentment was like a volcano about to erupt:
"Is this the end of our trip to Dragon Valley? No, I have to try again. Maybe this soul bone can only activate twice!"
Yu Tianyun mustered his confidence, rekindled the flame of hope, and once again reached out to the black soul bone.
As expected, he was once again mercilessly flung away.
"No, I was only bounced back; it didn't cause me any real harm. I won't give up so easily! I'll keep trying!"
Yu Tianyun gritted his teeth, strengthened his resolve, and once again reached for the black soul bone.
"Bang!"
"Try again!"
"Bang!"
"I refuse to believe it!"
"Bang!"
"Damn it!"
After thirty-six attempts, Yu Tianyun slumped down in front of the soul bone like a lump of mud, his expression full of despair and frustration!
"Thirty-six times already! And it still doesn't work! Is this soul bone something you can only look at but not touch?"
Yu Tianyun's expression turned extremely ugly after these repeated setbacks.
"What should we do? Are we really going to go home empty-handed?"
Yu Tianyun frowned, his gaze sweeping over the numerous dragon skeletons around him. His initial confusion and helplessness gradually gave way to unwavering determination.
"With so many true dragon soul bones here, are we just going to admire them from afar? No way! Even if this soul bone isn't good enough, there are thousands of true dragon skeletons here, which means thousands of true dragon soul bones! I refuse to believe that there isn't one I can't get! I have to try before I'm satisfied! Let's do it!"
Yu Tianyun was absolutely unwilling to return empty-handed. Entering a treasure mountain only to leave empty-handed was not his style!
He bypassed the true dragon's soul bone that had sent him flying thirty-six times and arrived in front of another true dragon's corpse.
The rest of the bones in this dragon skeleton are pure white, except for the entire torso, which is a fresh and elegant cyan color.
Judging from the color, Yu Tianyun believed that this should be the skeleton of a wind-attribute true dragon.
Yu Tianyun slowly walked up to the Soul Bone, reached out and touched it. As expected, he was once again thrown away by the overwhelming force!
"Hmph! This one won't do either! Next one!"
Yu Tianyun snorted coldly in his heart and tried another skeleton without hesitation.
This time, he chose a skeleton with a golden head spirit bone. Yu Tianyun placed his palm directly on the spirit bone.
"Bang!"
Once again, unsurprisingly, he was violently knocked away!
But he didn't give up. His steps remained steady and firm, his gaze unwavering as he moved towards the next dragon skeleton. There were thousands of dragon skeletons here, and he had only tried three!
Yu Tianyun touched the soul bones of the dozen or so skeletons closest to him, but the result was not changed in the slightest.
But his steps remained steady and firm, taking one step at a time, moving forward resolutely.
On the first day, he tirelessly touched the soul bones of 253 true dragons, and unsurprisingly, each one ruthlessly sent him flying.
The next day, he was even faster, touching more than three hundred soul bones in a row, but they were still bounced away. Two of the blue-purple soul bones even gave him a sense of familiarity, and he guessed that they might be the soul bones of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex!
But it was just a friendly gesture; there was no intention whatsoever to give him special treatment.
On the third day, after two consecutive failures, Yu Tianyun became increasingly irritable and anxious, which ironically spurred him to improve his speed even further.
He touched all 401 true dragon soul bones without stopping that day, but the result was the same as the previous two days.
Having already touched half of the True Dragon Soul Bone, Yu Tianyun felt somewhat desperate!
Looking at the remaining half of the true dragon skeleton, Yu Tianyun gritted his teeth and silently vowed:
"Even if I can't take them with me, I still want to have the thrill of handling them! At the very least, I want to become a man who has touched thousands of true dragon soul bones!"
On the fourth day, Yu Tianyun, full of energy and ambition, embarked on his journey of bone reading again. When he finished reading the 1,401st soul bone, he suddenly stopped.
Because he saw a colossal skeleton in front of him.
This skeleton towered into the clouds, reaching over a thousand meters in height. Its bones were a deep, heavy brown, unlike any other true dragon skeleton. It exuded an unparalleled majestic and powerful aura, making the gravity on the ground within a radius of several thousand meters around it significantly greater than in other places.
This true dragon was like an earth dragon, without the bones of a dragon wing, but its body was extremely thick, especially its limbs, which were as thick as pillars supporting the sky.
Yu Tianyun immediately guessed the identity of this true dragon: it was the Mountain Dragon King!
He slowly walked forward, each step feeling unusually heavy. Feeling the powerful energy fluctuations emanating from the Mountain Dragon King's massive body, Yu Tianyun felt an indescribable strange sensation throughout his body.
Compared to other dragon bones, the aura emanating from the Mountain Dragon King's bones was far stronger—an unparalleled fury and endless resentment.
Yu Tianyun quietly channeled his spiritual power, shaking off the Mountain Dragon King's emotional influence, and cautiously moved closer, feeling a chill run down his spine.
"Such terrifying energy fluctuations... if they were to send me flying, how much force would that be? Maybe I shouldn't touch it! But this is the last soul bone I haven't touched yet, and I can't bear not touching it! But touching it might kill me!"
Yu Tianyun was torn. Although he felt it was unlikely that he could obtain the Mountain Dragon King's soul bone, he had already touched it, and he would feel unwilling to give up on this last one!
Before long, Yu Tianyun's reason finally prevailed over that trace of greedy desire and unwilling emotion!
"I'll just look, I won't touch!"
As he got closer, Yu Tianyun finally saw clearly that there was a shockingly huge crack in the center of the Mountain Dragon King's massive skeleton, a gruesome sight from beginning to end.
In other words, its enormous body appeared to have been cleaved in two by a sharp weapon.
"Could this have been done by the Asura God?!"
Yu Tianyun couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The Mountain Dragon King is the strongest in defense among the nine Dragon Kings. The only thing that could cause him such great damage is the Asura God!"
After all, he was a ruthless person who split the Dragon God in two!
Thinking of this, Yu Tianyun couldn't help but sigh:
"Mountain Dragon King, you are truly brave!"
