Huo Yuhao gently touched the two dragon corpses below with his spiritual power, and unsurprisingly, he was directly repelled.
The dragon might surrounding the two dragon corpses grew stronger, like a volcano about to erupt.
Huo Yuhao did not hesitate.
He lightly drew his finger on his forehead, and the Eye of Destiny opened directly.
The strange rose-gold vertical eye was surrounded by emerald green light patterns that showed the power of life.
The rose-gold vertical eye released a spiritual power fluctuation, and then several strands of emerald green light flowed along the fluctuation to the two dragon corpses below.
The Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King did not directly reject the power of life like the Space Dragon King.
The emerald green light easily merged into the two dragon corpses.
After a brief silence, the originally calm Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye instantly began to vibrate, like boiling water.
Huo Yuhao mobilized all his spiritual power and soul power.
Wind attribute inscriptions and water attribute inscriptions constructed an alchemical model around him, separating the dragon might and water flow that were rushing towards his face.
The surrounding spring water receded rapidly from the bottom, quickly forming a small hollow.
Huo Yuhao used his telekinesis to slowly descend onto the damp soil at the bottom of the spring, the soil slightly sinking to reveal his footprints.
The Eye of Destiny drove his life force to flow within his body, replacing air to maintain bodily functions.
In the distance, two majestic dragon heads emitted light of azure and scarlet respectively.
Extreme temperatures of extreme cold and extreme heat filled this small space.
Two figures emerged from the dragon heads and slowly landed in front of Huo Yuhao.
The one on the left was a beautiful woman wearing azure dress, with deep blue eyes and long, flowing blue hair reaching her waist.
Her body was somewhat transparent, and her gentle temperament combined with the vast power of a dragon.
Huo Yuhao glanced at her a few times and couldn't help but nod.
She was indeed very beautiful, worthy of being the fiancée of the Dragon Prince.
It was said that the Dragon God had once regarded her as a beloved daughter.
The fiery red figure on the right also revealed herself; she was also a woman, with long, flowing red hair that seemed to shimmer with the light of the sun, and bright golden eyes.
She wore a form-fitting outfit, exuding a heroic and spirited aura.
This surprised Huo Yuhao, who had assumed the Fire Dragon King was male.
"Human, why have you awakened us?"
A gentle, soothing voice calmed Huo Yuhao's thoughts.
The Water Dragon King sized up the human who had transferred life force to them.
The life force provided was limited, barely enough to allow the dragon soul to manifest human form.
Although it couldn't replenish the damage to their divine soul and consciousness, the Water Dragon King was grateful to the human for the long-awaited return to clarity.
The Fire Dragon King sized up Huo Yuhao, then looked up at the spring above and said,
"Oh?"
"You killed those weeds up there?"
"Heh, not bad, human brat."
"A few ignorant weeds, with only 100,000 years of cultivation, dared to lay a hand on my and Xiao Shui's dragon souls!"
"The land they grew on was formed from my and Xiao Shui's bodies!"
"If it weren't for the severe wear and tear, I would have killed them long ago!"
Huo Yuhao said to the two dragon kings,
"I came here because I heard there are dragon king corpses here, and I was very interested, so I came to take a look."
The Fire Dragon King's eyes flashed, and he immediately became interested in Huo Yuhao, saying,
"A rather honest human."
"I thought you'd beat around the bush."
"Straightforward, quite to my liking.
If the Dragon God Realm were still around, I might even be able to give you a pointer."
"But what do you mean by 'also'?"
"Have you met the other Dragon Kings?"
Huo Yuhao spread his hands and said to the two women,
"There are three Dragon King corpses in my hometown."
"They are the Wind Dragon King, the Earth Dragon King, and the Space Dragon King."
"The Space Dragon King's soul was still intact at the time.
I talked to him and learned quite a bit."
Hearing the familiar name, the Water Dragon King stepped forward slightly, her tone somewhat excited, and said,
"Space?"
"Is he alright?"
"Why did he and Time do that back then?!"
Huo Yuhao looked at the slightly agitated Dragon King and said,
"Miss Water Dragon King, please don't get excited."
"The Space Dragon King told me back then."
"It was the will of the universe that influenced them.
This universe hates all beings that want to ascend to higher dimensions.
The God Star is a trap."
The Water Dragon King lowered her eyes, her beautiful face slightly lost in thought.
After a long silence, she finally said:
"It's good that it wasn't betrayal."
The Fire Dragon King sighed, looking at the Water Dragon King's expression.
"Alright, alright, so many years have passed."
"Most of those who experienced it are dead."
"Let those things fade into mere gossip."
"Hey, human boy, tell me about the current state of the dragon race."
"The situation must be dire.
Are there any living dragons left?"
"They weren't all really dead, were they?"
The Fire Dragon King changed the subject, clearly not wanting to discuss the Dragon God War any further.
Every time she recalled the scene, she felt pain all over her body, after all, she had been torn apart by the Dragon God himself.
The Water Dragon King also regained her composure, looking at Huo Yuhao with a mixture of expectation and fear.
Huo Yuhao didn't keep them in suspense and said directly,
"Not many are left."
"As far as I know, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian and the Hell Demon Dragon King Zi Ji are still alive in the Star Dou Great Forest."
"The Space Dragon Clan is extinct, but the Space Dragon King's bloodline continues in humans."
The Space Dragon King passed his Space Crown to the new Space Dragon King, who, strictly speaking, is human."
The Wind Dragon King is similar; his Dragon King bloodline continues in humans because the Wind Dragon King died completely, and the Space Dragon King left behind divine power to help extract the Wind Crown."
After saying this, Huo Yuhao opened the magic network, showed the two pictures of Tibao and Feng Jin, and released their auras at the same time.
Both the Fire Dragon King and the Water Dragon King breathed a sigh of relief.
The Fire Dragon King looked at the picture and said,
"That's good."
"As long as there's still a living dragon."
"Di Tian?"
"That kid really survived."
"Hahaha! But I didn't expect the Dragon King's bloodline to appear in a human, truly amazing."
"Good! At least the two races aren't extinct."
Then, the Fire Dragon King looked at Huo Yuhao again and said,
"I know that guy from Space's personality, he should have given you the reward you wanted, right?"
Huo Yuhao nodded and said,
"He told me the location of the Dragon Tomb."
The Fire Dragon King's eyes narrowed as he asked,
"Dragon Tomb?"
"What are you going there for?"
"You don't want to desecrate the dragons' remains, do you?!"
Huo Yuhao shrugged, meeting the Fire Dragon King's gaze directly without any guilt.
"If giving new life to a dragon is considered desecration, then I have nothing to say."
The Water Dragon King was somewhat puzzled, her gentle voice reaching Huo Yuhao's ears.
"Rebirth? What does that mean?"
Huo Yuhao's lips curled slightly as he confidently declared,
"Literally, I want to give the dragon race a new life, to forge a new will, and to let this abandoned race roar across the world once more!"
"I want to create a new dragon race!"
The Fire Dragon King's eyes flashed with hostility as he coldly snorted,
"How arrogant!"
"The dragon race is a life form that has evolved to its peak.
Apart from the Dragon God, no being can revive the dragon race!"
Huo Yuhao met the Fire Dragon King's gaze without flinching and said,
"Hard to say."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao clapped his hands, and a colorful ripple appeared in the small space.
The ripple gradually subsided, revealing a dreamlike space behind it.
The Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King's eyes widened in disbelief. They saw dozens of giant dragons flying in the air behind the colorful ripple!
The dragons' bloodlines were pure; they weren't sub-dragons or pseudo-dragons! They were true dragons!
Then, a gray-white dragon, larger than any of the true dragons, placed its majestic head near the ripple and nodded slightly to Huo Yuhao in greeting.
The Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King could clearly sense that the dragon's bloodline was that of a true Dragon King, completely on par with the Dragon Kings of the nine major dragon systems!
Both of them had once been God-Kings, and they could immediately see that the dragon's talent lay in the spiritual realm! It was a spiritual dragon race.
Di Tian, back in the Dragon God Realm, was just a young man and lacked experience!
The Fire Dragon King and the Water Dragon King knew perfectly well that there were no spiritual dragons among the dragon race.
The spiritual attribute was rare and powerful!
It was an attribute that could forcibly control other elements, the very foundation of consciousness.
If a dragon race possessed a spirit, how could they, as dragon kings, not know?
Especially the Water Dragon King, the most beloved of the nine dragon kings, practically treated like a daughter by the Dragon God, she had never heard of the existence of spiritual dragons.
The Water Dragon King looked at the White King behind Lianyi, involuntarily reaching out to touch her, but ultimately withdrew her hand.
"It's true."
"She's a completely new Dragon King!"
"Her bloodline is no less than yours or mine; she possesses entirely new possibilities!"
"I can feel her crown being conceived—a new crown beyond the nine great crowns."
"This is indeed a new dragon race."
Huo Yuhao shut down the colorful ripples, put his hands in his pockets, and said to the Fire Dragon King,
"How is it?"
"Am I being presumptuous?"
The Fire Dragon King was silent, then looked at Huo Yuhao with his brilliant golden eyes and said,
"Human, you've truly opened my eyes."
"Let's speak frankly."
"What do you want?"
Huo Yuhao knew the other had taken the bait and said without any pretense,
"Your bodies and crowns."
"This is the core purpose of my trip."
The Fire Dragon King was taken aback for a moment, then burst into unrestrained laughter, saying,
"The dragon race has indeed truly declined."
"If this were during the Dragon God Realm era, no human would dare speak to me like this."
Huo Yuhao said calmly,
"That's right, times have indeed changed."
"So what's your answer?"
The Fire Dragon King glanced at the worried Xiao Shui beside him and said,
"I can give them, even willingly separate my crown."
"But I need to know what you intend to do with my body,"
Huo Yuhao said, looking at the Fire Dragon King.
"To create a new Dragon King."
"Using your body as a template, create a new Bronze and Fire King for the Dragon Clan."
The Fire Dragon King showed no anger, but instead nodded in satisfaction.
"That's acceptable."
"Remember to make me look handsome, with a more imposing physique.
It would be best to lengthen my horns, and don't make me split them, that's too ugly."
"There's another question: to whom will the new Dragon Clan pledge allegiance?"
Huo Yuhao spread his arms and said,
"Me."
A smile appeared on the Fire Dragon King's face, a hint of relief amidst his majesty.
"You?"
"Truly an ambitious human! But I like it."
"That's fine too. Let the old Dragon Clan depart with their master."
"The new Dragon Clan should not bear any shackles."
"Human, take it all! Take everything I have!"
"But I have one last request, human."
The Fire Dragon King's eyes now revealed sincerity, his tone pleading.
"I have never asked anyone for anything in my life, you are the first."
"Please take Xiaoshui away from here and go to see the new world."
The Water Dragon King paused slightly, his delicate face showing anxiety, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by the Fire Dragon King.
"Human, I don't know if you know the specific details of the Dragon God War."
"I was personally torn apart by the Lord, my power severely diminished, and I barely maintained consciousness thanks to my former God-King cultivation."
"Xiao Shui is different; she was killed by that bastard Guang Ming!
Her body and power are perfectly preserved!
She can completely transform into an external soul ring and merge with you!"
"We've both seen how plants transform into soul rings after death; imitation isn't difficult."
"I can't do it."
"I beg you to take Xiao Shui away."
Huo Yuhao glanced at the Water Dragon King and said to the Fire Dragon King:
"I have no reason to refuse."
"However, you should perhaps ask her opinion."
The Fire Dragon King looked at the Water Dragon King and said:
"Xiao Shui, you are the most beloved of the nine Dragon Kings; everyone treats you like a younger sister."
"The Lord also regards you as a daughter."
"I don't agree with that bastard Guang Ming's actions!"
"Why did he kill you?! Even the Lord didn't kill you!"
"Only the Lord was qualified to kill you!"
"During the battle, even in his frenzied state, the Lord didn't attack you."
"If I ever see the light in the underworld, I'll tear him apart!
He's always coming up with terrible ideas!"
The Fire Dragon King trembled with rage!
She couldn't understand why the light wanted to kill Little Water.
What kind of logic was that?
Even the Lord hadn't made a move, yet he had!
The Water Dragon King gently grasped the Fire Dragon King's clenched fist, and the two dragon kings stared at each other silently.
"Little Water, I beg you."
"Don't rot here with me, becoming a casualty of that tragedy."
"Go see the new world, accompany that human to see the new dragon race."
"Keep an eye on that human, make sure he makes that Bronze and Fire King look handsome."
"These humans don't understand dragons at all, I'm afraid he'll turn him into a monster."
"If he makes it ugly, you fix it for me."
The Fire Dragon King hugged the Water Dragon King, gently persuading his sister.
The Water Dragon King's azure eyes were filled with reluctance, and she nodded slightly.
"Okay."
