Chapter 24 Ancient Dragon Clan - Golden Winged Dragon
Inside the Sunset Forest, two figures, one large and one small, walked through the woods.
The two figures were none other than Tang Yu and his grandson Tang Kun.
Under Tang Yu's coercion and enticement, Tang Kun, despite his busy schedule, had no choice but to take time out to help his grandson hunt for his first spirit ring.
Tang Yu was so anxious because the relocation of his clan was about to take place.
At this time, the location of Haotian Sect was relatively close to Sunset Forest, while the new site of Haotian Sect was very far away from Sunset Forest.
When we get to the new location, since it's far from Sunset Forest but close to Star Dou Great Forest, his grandfather definitely won't bring him to Sunset Forest to hunt soul beasts.
Tang Yu had another compelling reason to come to Sunset Forest: the opportunity presented by the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
After Tang Yu's exploration of the Sunset Forest map over the past few days, he has been able to pinpoint the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
According to the description of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye in Douluo Continent from my past life's memories, it is hidden in a valley.
The only mountainous area in Sunset Forest is the Sunset Mountain Range, which runs through the entire forest, so Tang Yu was certain that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was in this valley.
Tang Kun, seeing his grandson intently studying the map, was at a loss and said helplessly:
"My dear grandson, where are you taking us to hunt spirit beasts for you?"
"No rush, Grandpa. The soul beast I'm looking for is in that mountain range ahead. Let's search slowly. If we really can't find it, we can just use the soul beast you specified." Tang Yu replied earnestly, looking at the mountain range ahead.
Looking at the mountains ahead, Tang Yu couldn't help but pray that he too would have the luck of a transmigrator and be able to find the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
Moreover, according to his understanding, Dugu Bo had not yet become a Title Douluo at this time, and the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was most likely still unclaimed, so what he did could not be considered as usurping someone else's place.
As Tang Yu led Tang Kun into the mountain range with high expectations, a sudden change occurred.
The surrounding space became distorted.
In that instant, Tang Yu vanished into thin air.
All of this happened so fast that even Tang Kun, a Title Douluo, didn't have time to react.
"Xiaoyu—!"
Watching his grandson disappear before his eyes, Tang Kun's eyes were bloodshot, and his voice trembled.
Tang Yu, the person involved, felt dizzy and disoriented.
He didn't know how much time had passed—maybe a few breaths, maybe a few hours—but Tang Yu finally felt the ground beneath his feet.
He staggered a few steps, barely managing to steady himself, and looked around.
This is a huge underground space with a dome about 100 meters high, with countless glowing crystals hanging from it, illuminating the entire space in a pale gold color.
However, the most eye-catching feature is the enormous object that sits in the center of the space.
It was a colossal beast over thirty meters long, its entire body covered in dark golden scales, each scale's edge gleaming with a sharp, cold light.
It has a pair of folded dragon wings on its back, and the wing membranes are covered with intricate golden patterns.
Its head resembled both a dragon and an eagle, with a single spiral horn on its forehead pointing straight to the dome. Its eyes were tightly closed, but just by lying there, it exuded a suffocating pressure.
Golden Pterosaur.
The name instantly popped into Tang Yu's mind.
He had seen related records in a book called "Illustrated Compendium of Soul Beasts", but the book only had a few words describing it, saying that it was an ancient branch of the dragon race that had long been extinct, possessing some of the bloodline of the golden dragon, and that the strength of an adult was comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
At this moment, the giant beast slowly opened its eyes.
Those were golden, vertical pupils, with what seemed like flowing lava deep within them.
Tang Yu's heart almost stopped beating.
The aura emanating from this golden pterosaur was so powerful that Tang Yu found it difficult to breathe.
That's a level that no ten-thousand-year-old soul beast can reach; it must be at least one hundred thousand years old, or even higher!
"Your Highness...is it really you?"
An aged yet excited voice resounded directly in Tang Yu's mind, not through the air, but through communication at the soul level.
The golden pterosaur slowly lowered its head, bringing its massive head close to Tang Yu's face, its golden eyes reflecting Tang Yu's tiny figure.
A beam of golden light shot into Tang Yu's body.
In an instant, the golden pterosaur became excited, and its voice trembled as it spoke.
"Yes...it's you...I can't be mistaken..."
"Although the bloodline power of that damaged dragon core was very weak, it was incredibly pure, and the aura it emitted was exactly the same as that of the dragon prince back then... the golden dragon who wielded the power of the world..."
Tang Yu's whole body stiffened.
Dragon Prince? Golden Dragon? Could this be referring to the Golden Dragon King bloodline within him?
He forced himself to calm down. In the original story he had read in his previous life, the Golden Dragon King did indeed inherit the power attributes of the Dragon God, being half of the Dragon God's. But in this world, the dragon race had long since declined, and the bloodline of true dragons was almost extinct.
This golden pterosaur must have sensed the aura of the Golden Dragon King emanating from the shattered dragon core within him, and mistakenly took him for some kind of "Dragon Prince".
A bold idea arose in Tang Yu's mind.
He took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked directly into the golden pterosaur's huge golden eyes.
"You...recognize me?" Tang Yu's voice was deliberately low, carrying a perfectly measured hint of bewilderment.
This expression wasn't feigned—he was genuinely bewildered, not knowing who the dragon mistook him for.
The golden pterosaur's eyes gleamed with even greater excitement.
"As expected... as expected, it is a remnant soul of His Highness reincarnated..." it muttered to itself, "I knew it, that pure aura of the law of power, who else could it be but His Highness..."
"A remnant soul reincarnated?" Tang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he continued the conversation, following the other person's words.
"Because my original power was damaged, I don't remember many things. I only remember that I was a reincarnation of a golden dragon and some fragmented memories, but everything else... is very blurry."
His words were half true and half false. As a transmigrator, he did indeed have "memories of his past life," but those had absolutely nothing to do with any dragon prince. However, the shattered dragon core of the Golden Dragon King within him might carry some fragments of the Golden Dragon King's memories from his previous life—although Tang Yu had never sensed them.
A hint of sadness flashed in the golden pterosaur's eyes.
"During the great war in the realm of gods hundreds of thousands of years ago, Your Highness, to preserve the dragon bloodline, you tore through space at your own cost, sending us, the collateral descendants of the Golden Lineage, into the Douluo Continent..."
"And Your Highness yourself..." its voice lowered, "Unexpectedly, Your Highness left behind a wisp of your remnant soul to be reborn. This is truly... truly a blessing for the dragon race!"
Tang Yu was deeply shocked.
The great war between the gods hundreds of thousands of years ago, where the dragon prince sacrificed himself to preserve his bloodline? He had never seen such information in any ancient texts.
Although he had read the book Douluo Continent in his previous life and knew about the war between the gods, he did not know so many details.
