Chapter 119: In Hand, 40 Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones!
"Even if fire and light attribute dragon bones are more compatible with me, it still doesn't help," Yu Tianlin said with a helpless look. "The moment I try to touch their Spirit Bones, I still get rejected."
He frowned, then forced himself to calm down.
"Let's try other skeletons. Maybe there are True Dragon remains that match me even better, ones that won't reject me even when I touch their Spirit Bones."
Yu Tianlin continued circling through the Dragon Burial Grounds, scanning the countless skeletons around him. Before long, he spotted something unusual.
Most skeletons were pale white, dull and ordinary. But this one had a bluish purple skull, and faint arcs of lightning flickered between its 2 dragon horns.
The instant Yu Tianlin saw it, his whole body trembled.
"Lightning attribute… this is a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"
A True Dragon with a lightning attribute could only be a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
This Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon had been qualified to join the War of the Dragon Gods and had fallen here, meaning it must have reached the god level. Calling it a Thunder Holy Dragon would not be an exaggeration.
Even the remains of a fire Holy Dragon and a light Holy Dragon showed some affinity toward me. Then a Thunder Holy Dragon, the same type as my Martial Soul, should be even closer. Maybe… I can actually take its Spirit Bone.
A Thunder Holy Dragon was essentially a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon that had reached the god level. The realm was higher, but the species itself was still the same.
Yu Tianlin's heart surged with excitement. He rushed to the skeleton and reached out to touch it.
This time, he was not thrown back.
The moment his hand made contact with the Thunder Holy Dragon's remains, a faint dragon roar echoed in his ears, like a mournful cry left behind at the moment of death.
For an instant, that desolate feeling seeped into Yu Tianlin's chest.
But he broke free in the next moment.
Although his Martial Soul was a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, he was still human at his core, a human who carried the power of the dragon race. He felt sorrow for the dragons that died here, but only that. He could not truly share their grief.
Yu Tianlin shook his head, forcing the lingering heaviness out of his mind. Then he stepped to the front of the Thunder Holy Dragon's remains, stood beside its skull, and reached out again.
Whether I can obtain a Spirit Bone depends on this moment. If even the Thunder Holy Dragon, the closest match to me, rejects me, then I definitely won't have any chance with other True Dragons.
Under Yu Tianlin's tense gaze, a faint fluctuation stirred on the bluish purple skull, as if it might erupt at any time. Yet after sensing the pure Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon aura radiating from Yu Tianlin, it ultimately did not explode.
The Thunder Holy Dragon's Spirit Bone did not reject him.
It finally worked.
Yu Tianlin's hands trembled as he excitedly pressed them against the skull.
Heaven have mercy. Ever since I entered the Dragon Burial Grounds, I've been getting slapped back again and again. I really thought there was no hope. But now, a True Dragon Spirit Bone finally acknowledged me.
Just as that excitement surged, the Thunder Holy Dragon skull seemed to sense Yu Tianlin's aura. It began to tremble slightly.
Then, it detached from the massive skeleton and floated upward.
The instant the skull separated, the Thunder Holy Dragon's enormous skeleton seemed to lose all support. It collapsed in an instant, ordinary white bones scattering across the ground.
"This…"
The skeleton was hundreds of meters tall, so the collapse caused a huge commotion. But Yu Tianlin barely reacted. His eyes were locked onto the skull floating in midair.
The Thunder Holy Dragon's body had been enormous. Even its skull was more than 10 meters long. Now, suspended in the air, it emitted a soft bluish purple glow, then slowly shrank.
It kept shrinking until it was roughly the size of a human head. Only then did it stop, falling from the air.
Yu Tianlin dashed forward and caught it.
He did not want a treasure like this to hit the ground. Though even if it fell, it obviously would not break.
"This is the Thunder Holy Dragon Head Spirit Bone." Yu Tianlin stared at the bluish purple skull in his arms. A dragon horn protruded on each side, and the aura it released was overwhelming. "Its power is terrifying. It really is worthy of being a god level skull."
Even though Yu Tianlin already had a head Spirit Bone, he was not in a hurry to absorb it.
Now that I can collect Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones, my first priority is to find every Thunder Holy Dragon skeleton I can, gather all the Spirit Bones I'm able to take, and then choose the stronger ones to absorb.
After that, Yu Tianlin began searching through the Dragon Burial Grounds for more Thunder Holy Dragon remains. It took him a full 2 days, but in the end, he found them all and collected every Spirit Bone he could.
"In total, I only found 40 Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones."
He piled the Spirit Bones together and looked dissatisfied.
"There are over 1,000 True Dragon corpses here, but only 40 belong to Thunder Holy Dragons. That ratio is way too low."
Compared to them, the remains of other Holy Dragons, like light and dark, exceeded 100.
But this could not be helped.
The Dragon God created the original 9 Dragon Kings. Aside from the Mountain Dragon King, the other 8 Dragon Kings gave rise to the 8 major dragon clans. Those 8 clans were the mainstream, so their numbers were naturally larger.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was born from a hybrid within those 8 major clans, and it appeared relatively late. It was normal for its numbers to be far smaller.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan was a small branch within the entire dragon race. The fact that it still managed to send out 40 god level warriors in the War of the Dragon Gods was already impressive.
"Even though these 40 Spirit Bones all come from Thunder Holy Dragons, their quality still differs," Yu Tianlin said as he examined them carefully. "Based on their aura alone, they can be divided into 2 levels."
He quickly sorted the Spirit Bones into 2 piles.
One pile held only 10 Spirit Bones. There were fewer of them, but their aura was noticeably stronger.
The other pile held 30 Spirit Bones. There were more, but their aura was weaker.
"Even though they're all god level, these 10 stronger Spirit Bones should be at the level of second level gods. As for the 30 weaker ones, they should only be at the level of third level gods."
He narrowed his eyes.
"As for Spirit Bones at the level of first level gods… it looks like there aren't any."
A True Dragon at the level of a first level god was a Dragon King. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan had appeared too late. Before any Dragon King level beings could be born, the War of the Dragon Gods had already arrived.
If they had been given a little more time, who could say? There were already 10 beings at the level of second level gods. Perhaps one of those Thunder Holy Dragons might have broken through to the Dragon King realm someday.
Unfortunately, all of that was only a dream.
The War of the Dragon Gods erupted, and every True Dragon above the god level, including the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, was wiped out. Aside from the Silver Dragon King who escaped and the Golden Dragon King who was sealed, the strongest of the entire dragon race was now Di Tian.
His bloodline level was extremely high, but in terms of strength, he had not even reached the god level.
