Overall, the contract was extrely comprehensive. In essence, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were practically selling themselves to the Huang Family. However, they were also granted many privileges. Within the clan, they would hold extrely high status. Once the Thousand-Year Contract was signed, they would naturally beco family elders, possessing authority in Fenglong City that was no less than the city lord’s.
After reading the contract, neither Lan Xuanyu nor Bai Xiuxiu felt the slightest psychological pressure.
That was because the contract was built on the assumption that they were dragon clan mbers of Celestial Dragon Planet who would live here in the future.
But in reality, they weren’t afraid of being despised by all dragon clan mbers.
After all, they had infiltrated this place from the beginning.
Under Huang Yuanlang’s guidance, the two of them each used a drop of their blood as a dium to sign the contract.
No curse appeared.
On the contrary, when their blood rged with the contract, the curse that had been planted in them in the Dragon Force Hall quietly disappeared.
Clearly, once the Thousand-Year Contract was in place, that curse no longer served any purpose.
Lan Xuanyu had never been worried about that curse anyway—just like he wasn’t worried about signing the Thousand-Year Contract.
The dragon clan’s fundantal rule was bloodline supremacy.
Although his strength was still nothing remarkable among the dragon clan, when it ca to the purity and power of bloodline, who could possibly compare with soone who possessed the Dragon God bloodline?
Because of that, he had absolutely nothing to fear.
Any contract related to dragon bloodlines simply wouldn’t have any effect on him.
After Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu signed the Thousand-Year Contract, Huang Yuanlang solemnly stored it away. The smile he tried to suppress was obvious, and even the way he looked at Lan Xuanyu had grown a bit bolder.
They couldn’t marry mbers of other families.
If marriage were to happen, it could only be within the clan.
And within the clan… who besides himself could possibly be worthy of Lan?
At least, that was what Huang Yuanlang believed.
Lan Xuanyu spoke calmly.
“Brother Huang, you just explained the function of dragon marrow. What about the dragon crystals?”
“Huh?” Huang Yuanlang had been staring at Lan Xuanyu sowhat dreamily. Hearing the question, he snapped back to his senses, looking slightly embarrassed.
“Dragon crystals… oh, dragon crystals. Those are good things too.”
He steadied himself before continuing.
“The true core power of the dragon clan actually lies within dragon crystals. Only god-level powerhouses form dragon crystals in their brains.
“Dragon crystals are the product of a qualitative transformation of spiritual consciousness fused with the bloodline. They’re also the source of a dragon’s power.
“In other words, a dragon crystal is the true core of a god-level dragon. You could say it condenses their entire lifeti of cultivation. It’s one of the most precious things the dragon clan possesses.”
“When you cultivate, simply holding a dragon crystal will cause it to naturally release dragon energy.
“And that energy contains spiritual consciousness as well, which will greatly help you cultivate your own spiritual power in the future.
“Refining the marrow and refining spiritual consciousness—both are the foundations of becoming a god.”
“Once dragon marrow is absorbed, it can’t be reused. But dragon crystals can be used for a very long ti. These three crystals should support your cultivation all the way until you beco gods.”
He paused, then added,
“Oh right. After entering the round-robin stage, there’s a high chance you’ll face other Higher Dragons.
“If you end up in the sa group and encounter soone whose Divine Dragon Armor is inlaid with a dragon crystal, test them first. If the strength gap is too large, it’s fine to concede.
“After all, the top three from each group can still enter the finals.”
“Dragon crystals can be embedded into a Divine Dragon Armor?” Bai Xiuxiu asked.
Huang Yuanlang nodded.
“That’s a very extravagant practice, but it can greatly amplify the armor’s power. However, the dragon crystal must share the sa attribute as the armor.
“Very few families have the resources and capability to do that.”
Though he spoke vaguely, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu imdiately understood.
Divine Dragon Armor embedded with dragon crystals was far more powerful.
The Huang Family simply didn’t have the capability.
Which ant the three dragon crystals they had been given didn’t match the attributes of their armor.
It wasn’t that the Huang Family didn’t want to give them such items—they simply didn’t possess them.
Huang Yuanlang clearly didn’t want to continue discussing the topic. He raised the Thousand-Year Contract in his hand and said,
“I need to return imdiately to submit this contract to Celestial Dragon City for official registration. I won’t disturb your cultivation any longer.
“Rest well these next few days and adjust your condition. During the round-robin stage, let’s all do our best together.”
After seeing Huang Yuanlang off, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu looked at each other.
Bai Xiuxiu chuckled softly.
“It seems the Huang Family has a lot of confidence in us. They really want to tie us down. Hmm… no marriage allowed. Hehe.”
Lan Xuanyu looked at her and smiled too.
But his smile seed a little strange.
“What are you laughing at?” For so reason, Bai Xiuxiu suddenly felt that his smile carried a hint of mischief.
“Nothing,” Lan Xuanyu said casually. “I was just thinking that maybe we can start refining our marrow now.
“With the dragon crystals and dragon marrow, we can use them to cultivate. Even without the Dragon Force Hall, these items can assist our body tempering—and the results will definitely be much better than using the hall itself.
“These are the Huang Family’s most treasured reserves.”
“Then… should we try it?” Bai Xiuxiu said.
After the elimination rounds of the Rising Dragon Competition, she felt a strong sense of urgency. Although her previous battles hadn’t been particularly difficult, she could clearly sense the gap between herself and Lan Xuanyu compared to the other Higher Dragons.
Reaching the top three of their round-robin group wouldn’t be easy.
Improving their strength was an urgent priority.
“Alright.” Lan Xuanyu chuckled quietly.
Bai Xiuxiu turned and walked toward the inner room.
Applying dragon marrow required removing clothing.
Lan Xuanyu grabbed one box of dragon marrow and two boxes of dragon crystals and followed after her.
“Don’t co in!” Bai Xiuxiu’s voice floated out.
The bedroom door shut.
Lan Xuanyu was left standing outside.
At that mont, he suddenly felt that Huang Yuanlang wasn’t quite as annoying as before.
This dragon marrow really was good stuff.
In the future, he should ask the Huang Family for more of it.
After a while, a soft voice ca from inside the room.
“You can co in now.”
Lan Xuanyu felt as if he had just received an imperial decree. He hurriedly pushed open the door and stepped inside.
For so reason, his heart felt as if it might leap out of his chest.
