The Fire Dragon looked at Chu Mo, and said in a deep voice, "For certain reasons, I was sealed inside this cup."
"Huh?" Chu Mo looked at the Fire Dragon, wondering what kind of entity could seal such a mighty dragon within a wine cup.
"It's a story that's both sorrowful and infuriating... and very shaful." As the Fire Dragon spoke, a terrifying light flashed in its huge dragon eyes.
Then, Chu Mo heard an ancient secret from the Fire Dragon's mouth.
The Fire Dragon originated from the Heavenly Realm and was a mber of the Dragon Clan. In its youth, it was well-known within the Dragon Clan and even the entire Heavenly Realm. Ordinarily, the dragon would've peaked in its pri. However, all that ended abruptly with one battle.
"It's a powerful opponent. I despise him, wishing I could tear him to pieces, but I have to admit, he's formidable! Far more formidable than ." The Fire Dragon said in a deep voice: "His body was even more robust than ours, the Dragon Clan, known for our physical prowess. I was no match for him just by using my physical strength alone. I deployed my divine abilities, but... the beautiful woman by his side had such powerful divine abilities that I was left in despair!"
"Were they from the Heavenly Realm too?" Chu Mo asked.
"I don't know, all I know is, they appeared to be a couple." The Fire Dragon said with a gloomy face: "After my defeat, they didn't kill , but took out a wine cup, saying they would seal in it, so that their wine could be heated... Damn it! Can you comprehend how detestable that was?"
The Fire Dragon couldn't help but roar.
Chu Mo twitched his mouth corner, but couldn't help imagining such a scene in his mind.
A gigantic dragon, burning with flas all over and looking fearso, was defeated effortlessly by two individuals and sealed inside a wine cup, all for the sake of not needing to heat wine...
This... was utterly wild and dominating!
Yet Chu Mo decided not to show these thoughts in front of the Fire Dragon, his face revealed a look of pain, saying: "Indeed, it is detestable!"
"That damned couple, they received their just desserts after sealing ." A satisfied expression appeared on the Fire Dragon's face as it said: "Not long after, they encountered formidable enemies; the man was gravely injured and dying, the woman... she was captured right away."
"..." Chu Mo didn't expect such a twist in the story, making him briefly speechless. At the sa ti, he was curious about the couple's identity and why they suddenly encountered a powerful enemy.
One would think that an entity capable of casually sealing such a Fire Dragon wouldn't be an unknown figure, even in the Heavenly Realm.
The Fire Dragon continued on its own: "At least those two people had a conscience. At the critical mont, they tossed the cup sealing out of the Heavenly Realm, and then... I passed through the Immortal Realm within this damn cup, eventually fell into the Spirit Realm."
That's when Chu Mo learned the actual origin of the Fire Dragon.
"Upon reaching the Spirit Realm, I was sealed inside this wine cup for many years, unable to obtain freedom. Until one day, I encountered a cultivator from the Spirit Realm." The Fire Dragon said.
"Oh? Was it Feng Hanshui, the founder of the Lingyue Sect?" Chu Mo asked.
The Fire Dragon shook its head: "No, it was another cultivator. That cultivator was only at the Golden Core stage..." The Fire Dragon glanced at Chu Mo: "About the sa as your current stage, but he foolishly thought he could make acknowledge him as my master. I burned him to death with a single breath."
"..." Chu Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking to himself: Is this a warning to ?
The Fire Dragon continued, "Later, a few more cultivators ca here, but most had ulterior motives. Instead of planning to help break the seal, they all wanted to subjugate . Heh... those ants, so naive! Even though I am sealed in this cup, do they really think they can subdue ?"
Watching the Fire Dragon, Chu Mo thought that it indeed made sense. After all, how could such a mighty dragon be easily subdued? Perhaps even in the Heavenly Realm, not many could subdue it. So why would the Vault of Heaven warn ...that I could subdue it?
"Later, Feng Hanshui showed up here. He wasn't very different from those cultivators who wanted to subdue . However, what set him apart was that he realized in the first instance how powerful I was." A look of satisfaction flickered in the eyes of the Fire Dragon as it continued: "So, he imdiately gave up the idea of subduing and pledged to be my servant instead."
"So you fell for it?" Chu Mo thought to himself but didn't say anything out loud. He already could tell that this Fire Dragon was very proud and arrogant.
"I made an agreent with him. I would protect his sect and impart so cultivation thods to him. In return, he must send soone who possesses the aura of the Five Elents to help break the seal soday in the future." The Fire Dragon looked at Chu Mo as it said: "Your body, it possesses the aura of the Five Elents, aren't you brought here by him to save ?"
Chu Mo looked at the Fire Dragon as if it were an idiot: "Do you think it's possible? Being a legendary dragon, surely you know how many people in this world possess the aura of the Five Elents?"
"..." The Fire Dragon was imdiately speechless.
Of course, it knew that it was virtually impossible for soone to possess the aura of the Five Elents in this world! Such a cultivator had never appeared in its inherited mory.
Yet, that was the only… and final hope that had kept it alive until today!
Because of this, such a proud dragon had to lower its proud head many years ago to negotiate with a cultivator whom the dragon thought of as an ant. It placed all its hopes on that person.
Thinking about how it had waited so many years only to be deceived in the end, fury welled up within the Fire Dragon. Opening its huge dragon mouth, it was about to let out an angry roar.
Seeing this, Chu Mo quickly interrupted: "Stop, stop. If you roar like this, we'll be exposed. Though Feng Hanshui deceived you, I didn't, right? Senior Fire Dragon, I think we... can have a good talk."
The Fire Dragon closed its mouth, and with its huge dragon eyes, it looked at Chu Mo, "Kid, surely you don't share the sa intentions as those who ca before? You should understand that although I am still sealed in this wine cup, it would still be easy for to kill you."
Chu Mo nodded, "Of course, what you say is correct, but if it were like this, you would probably lose any chance for freedom forever. Who knows how long we would have to wait for another person with the aura of the Five Elents to appear? Perhaps forever, you agree, right?"
The Fire Dragon was silent, a flickering yet uncertain light in its dragon eyes, seemingly deep in thought.
