<h4>Chapter 1197: Baptism</h4>
“Long Zhu, are you sure?”
Illumination Dragon Elder Four had a grim expression as he whispered, “The Ancestral Dragon’s baptism is extraordinary and must not be joked about! If you can’t withstand it...”
Although he did not continue, the meaning behind his words was clear.
Long Cang frowned slightly as well and said in a deep voice, “Long Zhu, you had better calm down. If you take a step back now, you’ll only lose an arm. However, you will lose your life if you’re unable to endure the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir!”
Although Long Cang’s words were unpleasant, it was out of goodwill.
However, Su Zimo had already made up his mind and shook his head.
When he saw that, Illumination Dragon Elder Four no longer tried to persuade him.
“Interesting.”
Elder Scorpion did not continue pushing and smiled faintly. “That’s perfect. I’ll be a witness as well to see how strong this generation’s young master of the Illumination Dragon lineage is!”
“Everyone, let’s go.”
Illumination Dragon Elder Four looked at the Blue Dragon elder and the others and said.
A single elder of the Dragon race won’t be enough to activate the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir – there had to be at least five!
Everyone headed towards the center of the Dragon Bone Valley.
“Long Zhu, you were a little rash,”
Long Xi was worried. “The baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir won’t be so easy to endure. Some dragons fail even after entering the Dharma Characteristic realm!”
“Since things havee to this, I can only give it a shot.”
Su Zimo smiled calmly with a rxed expression.
Before long, the news that Long Zhu was about to receive the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir spread through the entire Dragon Bone Valley!
“What? Long Zhu is going to receive the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir? Isn’t he at the Void Reversion realm?”
“Could he have broken through?”
“Impossible! Look, he’s still the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking!”
“Long Zhu has gone mad! He’s going to receive the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir at the Void Reversion realm!”
When the news spread, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples and caused an uproar.
Almost all the dragons that were not in seclusion were rmed and moved one after another, rushing towards the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir in the central region.
Before long, more than a thousand dragons were gathered around the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir and they were densely packed with voices!
The Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir stood upright in the skies. Grayish-white in color, it gave off an ancient aura and was located right in the middle of the Dragon Bone Valley.
It could be said that the valley and the habitat of the Dragon race was built around the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir – it was clear how much this pir meant to the Dragon race!
Legend has it that the stone pir came from the immortal world and had existed since the primordial era.
There was even an Ancestral Dragon spirit within the stone pir!
It was the lifelike five-wed divine dragon etched on the stone pir.
Of course, there were many other legends about the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir.
Around the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir was a spacious, five-pointed stone tform.
At that moment, Su Zimo stood on the stone tform beneath the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir with a calm expression and a resolute gaze!
In the five corners of the stone tform, Illumination Dragon Elder Four and the other five dragon elders stood still.
“Long Zhu, have you decided? It’s not toote to regret now.”
Illumination Dragon Elder Four said sternly, “Once the baptism begins, even we can’t stop it. If you meet with danger, no one will be able to save you!”
“Thank you for your concern, elder. I’ve made up my mind!”
Su Zimo nodded.
Illumination Dragon Elder Four said in a deep voice, “Everyone, let’s begin!”
The elders of the five lineages exchanged nces and conjured hand seals respectively, spitting out obscure words that possessed a strange power that shook the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir!
That was anguage unique to the Dragon race.
The five elders cut their fingertips at the same time and squeezed out a drop of blood. Fusing it into their hand seals, it formed a blood beam that entered the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir.
The Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir could only be activated with the bloodline of the Dragon race as a medium and a secret skill!
None of the dragons present were unfamiliar with it.
They had been in the Dragon Bone Valley for countless years and had witnessed the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir opening countless times.
However, this was extremely novel to the witches.
A witch whispered, “Elder Scorpion, do you think Long Zhu will be able to receive the baptism of the Ancestral Dragon Pir sessfully?”
“Fu...”
Elder Scorpion sneered, “Absolutely impossible!”
“Haven’t you heard? Even that five-wed divine dragon was only baptized after reaching the Dharma Characteristic realm. Thisd’s bloodline is impure. Can hepare to a five-wed divine dragon?” Another witch exined.
“What if? Long Zhu is the young master of the Illumination Dragon lineage after all.”
The witch said.
This time round, Elder Scorpion said nothing.
However, he sent a voice transmission secretly with his spirit consciousness, “Even if thatd manages to survive, I’ll be able to cripple him without anyone knowing given my capabilities!”
With Elder Scorpion’s words, the many witches no longer had any worries.
“Activate!”
Right then, the elders of the five lineages shouted at the same time.
Boom!
Suddenly, the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir vibrated with a loud bang!
Right in front of everyone, one of the divine dragon’s ws lit up beneath its abdomen, as though it was burning with mes!
Immediately after, divine dragons zing with mes burst forth from the stone pirs and filled the skies. At a nce, they were dense and emitted a terrifying might!
That scene was extremely shocking!
It was alright for the dragons present – most of them had seen this before. However, the witches looked somewhat pale.
The divine dragons zing with scarlet mes circled in midair for a moment before lowering their heads and charging towards Su Zimo who was beneath the stone pir!
Those divine dragons were formed from the dragon qi in the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir.
The so-called baptism was the infusion of dragon qi into one’s body. The dragon qi would constantly refine and nourish the body and bloodline of the Dragon race, causing theirbat strength to increase exponentially!
Under normal circumstances, if an Illumination Dragon were to undergo the baptism, he would awaken the dragon qi of the Illumination Dragon lineage.
A Winged Dragon would awaken the dragon qi of the Winged Dragon lineage.
Of course, that was not absolute.
If there was a dragon with exceptional talent and a pure and powerful bloodline, the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir would naturally sense it and awaken even more dragon qi!
For example, Long Cang possessed the bloodline of a five-wed divine dragon and the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pir released as much dragon qi as the five lineages!
Although the scene before them was shocking, in reality, it was merely the awakening of a single lineage’s dragon qi.
That was because only a single w of the five-wed divine dragon etched on the stone pir lit up!
Instantly.
Countless scarlet divine dragons swooped down and surged into Su Zimo’s body from all directions!
A massive scorching power exploded within his body!
Su Zimo grunted and his body swayed.
That power was way too domineering and pure, almost burning every single inch of his flesh!
Bang! Boom! Boom!
Su Zimo channeled his bloodline and a tsunami surged, attempting to contain that power.
However, he turned into a gigantic ming man before long and scarlet mes burst forth from his body!
Under the baptism of the dragon qi, cracks appeared on his skin in a shocking manner!
