Chapter 357: Chapter 359: Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon
 

After staying at Xuancao Mountain Castle for a day, it was the perfect opportunity to slowly await Little Qingzhuo’s completion of the Reincarnation Transformation.

Indeed, as his own cultivation base increased, the speed of the transformation was much faster than before.

Zhu Minglang remembered when Little White underwent metamorphosis, he had stayed at the Dragon Taming Academy for half a month before there were any noticeable changes, but now, it had taken just one day.

The azure cocoon showed signs of loosening just as Zhu Minglang finished his dinner.

Cracks appeared on the outer shell of the cocoon, the soft yet resilient azure cocoon seemingly melting away like snow under the sunshine, bit by bit.

And the azure Little Spirit Bug, which had eaten until round just the night before, had now completely changed its appearance by the following day. What came into view was a pair of elegant wings, displaying perfect hues, and up close, one could even see a glimmer of azure luminescence.

Its body was delicate, resembling a bird and yet more majestic than any bird. The previous imposing Giant Dragon skull was gone, replaced by a more graceful bird head. Its forelimbs had disappeared too, leaving only the claws of a mighty eagle. As for its tail, it had turned into four delicate and soft strands, resembling dancing willow branches, sparkling with a sacred azure-blue color, magnificently beautiful!

Young Dragon.

Little Qingzhuo had undoubtedly reverted to the form of a Young Dragon.

However, Zhu Minglang had seen Little Qingzhuo during its Young Dragon period before; it was like a little dog, its wings not as broad and its lines lacking the aesthetic beauty it now had, emitting more of a bestial nature.

Now, Little Qingzhuo had entirely lost that bestiality and beast-like form, replaced instead by the agility and nobility of an azure sparrow or eagle, which made Zhu Minglang wonder in disbelief.

Was this Little Qingzhuo evolving toward the Divine Green Holy Dragon?

Or had it completely transformed into another kind of dragon, with a bloodline and species utterly different?

“Transformed into an Azure Eagle Dragon??” Zhu Minglang mumbled to himself.

Little Qingzhuo was still too young to discern any specific features from its external appearance.

“This is an Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, it has acquired the Azure Phoenix bloodline!” Mr. Jinli cursed discontentedly.

Zhu Minglang’s mouth fell open.

For some reason, just hearing the name of the dragon already felt extraordinary!

Most importantly, Zhu Minglang had not expected that the energy from the Three Ten-thousand Year Phoenix Nest he introduced could reshape Little Qingzhuo’s bloodline!

The Azure Phoenix naturally ranked above the Green Wood Dragon, and it seemed like the bloodline of the Forest Giant Dragon from Little Qingzhuo’s mother had entirely vanished. Today, Little Qingzhuo had become a combination of the Azure Phoenix and Divine Tree Holy Dragon bloodlines, turning into an Azure Phoenix Azure Saint Dragon!

This bloodline, its status was unknown how many levels higher than before, after all, addressing Little Qingzhuo as a Divine Green Holy Dragon, but deep down it still had half of the Forest Giant Dragon bloodline, which had its limitations!

The fusion of the Azure Phoenix bloodline with that of the Divine Green Holy Dragon was the true dominion of nature!

“What did I tell you, you’ve found a treasure. With each cycle of Reincarnation Transformation, they will become dragons of a more superior bloodline. An Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, that’s not inferior to the Fiend Star Dragon at all. Raise it properly and entering the Dragon King Level will be a breeze!” Mr. Jinli continued.

In the Spirit Realm, the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon King groggily woke up; it tilted its wickedly cool head and looked towards the just hatched young dragon.

It sniffed around and seemed to fall into contemplation.

It remembered coming here to find a Divine Green Holy Dragon of impure bloodline sleeping in the nest. How did it turn into an Azure Dragon Baby??

Was there a ghost in this Spirit Realm?

Although the Azure Dragon Baby was young, the aura it emitted didn’t seem weak at all.

Moreover, the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon also felt a faint threat.

Had it been in the harsh competition of nature, the sight of such a young dragon with such a lofty bloodline would have driven the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon to kill it immediately, as this kind of dragon could pose a threat to its own territory once it grew up!

…

Zhu Minglang held the Little Azure Dragon in his hands as he brought it out of his Spirit Realm, and knowing by its whiny cries that it was hungry again.

Little Qingzhuo’s transformation was happening too fast, so that Zhu Minglang had not yet figured out what it ate, yet he saw the young Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon already nibbling on those emerald mulberry leaves.

It even eats leaves!

It seemed that the emerald mulberry leaves were indeed nutritious and suited the dragon’s palate.

“Look at it, it’s like a newly hatched being and, have you noticed, its disability from being a Disabled Dragon has completely disappeared!” Mr. Jinli suddenly said, thrilled with surprise.

Zhu Minglang was observing seriously as well.

Just as Mr. Jinli described, the scars from the huge trauma that Qingzhuo had suffered in its youth were nowhere to be found.

Its bones, its internal organs, and many vital parts of its lineage were intact!

The Divine Green Holy Dragon was an exceptionally superior breed to begin with. Had it not been for the impact of being a Disabled Dragon, it might have even surpassed the growth of the Ice Morning White Dragon.

But now, Little Qingzhuo had gained the bloodline of the Azure Phoenix, becoming an Azure Phoenix Green Holy Dragon, and not only had its lineage become nobler by countless degrees, but even the Disabled Dragon trait that would have followed it for life was healed!

The biggest issue Little Qingzhuo had was being a Disabled Dragon.

Now that has been perfectly resolved; its potential is immeasurable!

Zhu Minglang also showed a smile on his face. The little one had finally tasted the sweetness after the bitterness, breaking free from the heavy trauma of its youth, with nothing to stop it from soaring through the heavens!

The growth rate of the Green Saint Dragon was extremely fast; it had just finished eating the emerald mulberry leaves when one could see its feathers growing out from its plump, smooth skin, especially those wings of the Azure Phoenix. Each feather seemed like a perfect work of art, and once it had fully plumed, the resplendent wings would likely make it majestic and extraordinary, like a favored child of the creator!

“Go get some more Wutong Spirit Dew, it should soon master some powerful racial abilities,” Mr. Jinli suggested.

Since Wutong Spirit Dew was not available at the castle, Zhu Minglang did not linger and immediately set off for Neon Sea Fantasy City.

…

Fantasy City was a coastal city to the west, gracefully stretching across the white shallow sea. Part of it was situated in the sea itself, supported by colorful corals as the foundation for its uniquely styled pavilions, ancient towers, and colorful palaces.

I remember the last time I came, Zhu Minglang said, it was under the setting sun, gazing upon this foreign city bathed in warm golden sunlight. The striking beauty and brilliance would melt the hearts of all who cherished romance.

Zhu Minglang brought with him a touch of regret since it was agreed that he would bring Li Yunzi here. With such a picturesque sea city, walking side by side with her, talking about interesting experiences and tranquil pasts would undoubtedly be an incomparable pleasure.

But, when Zhu Minglang arrived at the coast, gazing at the long white beach, he discovered that Fantasy City, for some reason, had lost its former color. All the buildings, all the pavilions constructed from colorful corals, seemed to have faded.

The entire Fantasy City appeared to be inexplicably enveloped in a layer of grey and black, and even the seawater winding around the city was no longer so azure!

“What’s going on? Did I go to the wrong place? This looks like it’s been polluted by something,” Zhu Minglang was somewhat bewildered, and he dared not believe it.

In just a few short years, what had happened to Neon Sea Fantasy City?
