Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

"Now's my chance!"

Jing Hui's eyes lit up upon seeing Shang Honghua's evil qi affected by the pillar of light. She quickly channeled her Buddhist Light and released a powerful technique!

"Divine Lotus Light!"

Strands of Buddhist Light intertwined in the void, forming a golden Buddhist lotus that enshrouded Shang Honghua within it.

After immobilizing her, a drop of blood essence containing a very dense Buddhist aura came out from between Jing Hui's brows and entered Shang Honghua's forehead!

Jing Hui was using a drop of her blood essence to suppress Shang Honghua's evil qi!

Under the influence of the light pillar and Jing Hui's blood essence, Shang Honghua's ferocious look gradually receded.

"Phew, I did it."

Jing Hui breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why didn't you uphold our promise and kill me instead?"

Shang Honghua looked at Jing Hui with utmost gratefulness and confusion.

"Well, it's not like you were completely lost anyway. Besides, saving someone is always better than killing them." Jing Hui chuckled.

Upon hearing that, Shang Honghua took a deep breath and said, "I owe you my life now."

"Don't worry. It's no big deal."

Jing Hui shook her head with a smile.

After that, she looked toward the pillar of light and said, "Your evil qi started weakening earlier due to that pillar of light. The item you're looking for, could it be located there?"

"It looks like it. I can sense a strong pull coming from it."

Shang Honghua nodded before dashing toward that pillar light.

Both of them soon arrived at the source of the light pillar. The only thing they saw at that moment was a… well!

That well was gold in color and brimming with a vast, domineering aura.

Furthermore, there was a golden liquid inside that well. The mere presence of that liquid affected the Blood Dragon's power, and even her spear began to tremble.

An insuppressible rageful aura emanated from her long spear.

Swirls of evil qi began to circle Shang Honghua, forming an apparition of the Blood Dragon that kept roaring at the well.

"What's going on with your evil qi?"

Jing Hui was a little surprised, yet at the same time, she also stood guard for fear that the evil qi would take control over Shang Honghua again.

"Do you know of the tale between the Ancient Golden Dragon and the Ashura Blood Dragon, both rumored to be great dragons who once lived in the past?

"I've heard about them, yes. It was said that the two dragons were born during the same era. As they were both subspecies of the Dragon Tribe, the two dragons were incredibly powerful. However, the Ancient Golden Dragon was good, while the Ashura Blood Dragon was evil, brutal, cruel, merciless, and possessed a sick passion for murder. Later on, the Ancient Golden Dragon ended up killing the Ashura Blood Dragon for the sake of the tribe and became the ruler of the Dragon Palace. He was, thus, hailed as one of the greatest dragons that came after the Dragon Forefather."

"Hah."

Shang Honghua scoffed and said, "These are all rumors spread by the Dragon Tribe. The truth is that both the Ashura Blood Dragon and the Ancient Golden Dragon used to be one!"

"Used to be one?"

"That's right. They were once part of a single entity."

Shang Honghua nodded. "Before he was the Dragon Palace Ruler, the Ancient Golden Dragon had many enemies. Desperate in the fight for the Dragon Palace Ruler's seat, he didn't hesitate to cultivate the Evil Dragon Emperor Heart Scripture, a forbidden scripture of the Dragon Palace. However, because his Daoist core was not strong enough during the process, a Heart Demon was formed."

"However, as his cultivation level skyrocketed, the power of his Heart Demon also did. Wanting to get rid of it, he cultivated another secret technique to separate his Heart Demon from his body. The Heart Demon was sealed in an unknown location but broke free eventually, wreaking havoc upon the other dragons. Freed from the Ancient Golden Dragon's control, the Heart Demon could now assimilate and gain control over the other dragons. That was how the Ashura Blood Dragon came to be!"

"The Ashura Blood Dragon despised the Ancient Golden Dragon and, by extension, the Dragon Tribe as well. On the other hand, the Ancient Golden Dragon hated the Ashura Blood Dragon, for it represented everything evil about him. Hence, the Ancient Golden Dragon always wanted to kill it."

"That was how the feud between the two began, making them sworn enemies of each other."

"The later part of the story is similar to the version recorded in the Dragon Palace's scriptures. The Ancient Golden Dragon ended up defeating the Ashura Blood Dragon. They only kept the fact that the Ashura Blood Dragon was the Ancient Golden Dragon's Heart Demon a secret. However, I bet the Ancient Golden Dragon never considered the Ashura Blood Dragon a Heart Demon born from the evil qi of the world. It did not truly die that day and came to this Holy Violet Planet instead. It was later sealed by the Holy Violet Immortal Emperor."

Jing Hui came to a realization upon hearing that. "In the end, you discovered that seal by accident and obtained the Ashura Blood Dragon's inheritance."

"That's right. However, I also ended up being affected by the Ashura Blood Dragon's evil qi. As the creator of the Ashura Blood Dragon, the Ancient Golden Dragon's power contains a suppressing effect on it. And according to the Ashura Blood Dragon's memories, the Ancient Golden Dragon had visited the Holy Violet Planet and left his inheritance behind in a dragon well while he was here."

Shang Honghua looked at the Golden Dragon well before her. "The dragon blood inside this well must surely be the Ancient Golden Dragon's blood. If I can refine it, I believe I can get rid of all the evil qi with the Ancient Golden Dragon's power. This means I'll only inherit the Blood Dragon's power in the end!"

"We must hurry. Now, get in quickly. I shall stand guard for you out here." Jing Hui said.

"Alright!"

Shang Honghua nodded as she leaped into the dragon well.

The moment the dragon blood's power entered her body, the evil qi within Shang Honghua's immediately started resisting violently, as if encountering its natural enemy.

As the two energies collided and clashed within her, the only thing she could do was grit her teeth and endure it.

Soon, the evil qi and evil traits within her were removed.

From outside the dragon well, Jing Hui was relieved to see that. "It seems this Ancient Golden Dragon's blood is working. It has gotten rid of Benefactor Shang's evil qi and even strengthened her body. This is a blessing in disguise for her."

Jing Hui lamented.

Shang Honghua was saved mainly because of Jing Hui's efforts in suppressing the effects of her evil qi. As such, Jing Hui prevented Shang Honghua from losing herself and going out of control during their journey.

'Saving a life is of boundless beneficence, after all.'

She could not help but smile at that thought.

Just then, several figures suddenly appeared from the void in the distance.

Those people were startled when they saw that golden dragon well. Then, all of them burst into laughter.

"It really is the dragon well!"

"The Third Dragon Crown Prince's guess was right. Shang Honghua has found the Ancient Golden Dragon's Opportunity of Fortune!"

"Take a look at the golden liquid inside that well. Could it be the Ancient Golden Dragon's blood?!" someone exclaimed.

Everyone instantly looked at the dragon well with coveting gazes.

Those people were all from the Dragon clan.

Since the Dragon clan was a clan whose members possessed the bloodline of dragons, their desire for a dragon's blood was greater than anyone else out there.

If they could even refine a single drop of the Ancient Golden Dragon's blood, it would be a great Opportunity of Fortune for them. It would improve their cultivation tremendously!

"Quick! Let's finish Shang Honghua off while she's busy refining the dragon blood. Then, seal off the area!" said the leading disciple from the Dragon clan.

Just as they were prepared to take action, Jing Hui appeared and blocked their path.

"Amitabha. I kindly request that everyone here wait patiently for Benefactor Shang, who's in dire need of removing the evil qi within her with this dragon blood. We can settle this matter once Benefactor Shang is done."

"Where the hell did this dirty nun come from? Move out of my way!"

Jing Hui did not have her usual appearance at that moment. Having been through a battle with an evil-qi-influenced Shang Honghua, she had suffered quite a few injuries. Her robes were stained with blood, which made her look disheveled.

One of the Dragon clan disciples snorted and attacked with a domineering punch, which contained faint traces of dragon qi.

However, none of them was prepared for what happened next. Jing Hui merely waved her sleeve, releasing a wave of Buddhist Light.

That punch strength was immediately destroyed!

Dozens of Dragon clan disciples were even sent flying because of the Buddhist Light's power.

"Amitabha. There's no need for us to fight, for a sea of suffering awaits those who bring harm. Why even bother?"

Jing Hui stood unmoved, her white robes stained with blood as Buddhist Light swirled around her, exuding an indomitable aura in all directions.
