Chapter 982 - Drakes And Dragons

Lin Mu looks through the many records of beasts he had and still couldn't come up with much. Other than the fact that the claws of the beast were in a different set than the other lizard beasts, Lin Mu couldn't find anything in the records he had.

'Seems like I'm lost here too. Can you see if you know anything about it Senior Xukong?' Lin Mu said his mind.

Xukong who had been cultivating, opened his eyes upon hearing Lin Mu's voice, looked though his memories and understood what he was asking about.

"Hmm… it's a big vague to tell since it has been fossilized a lot, but seeing the claws of the beast, I'm guessing that it is some kind of a low ranked Drake." Xukong replied.

"A Drake? What are those senior?" Lin Mu questioned, finding the word a bit familiar.

"Drakes are basically beasts that contain a faint trace of a Dragon's Bloodline." Xukong answered.

"A DRAGON?!" Lin Mu exclaimed in his heart.

"Yes, a dragon." Xukong confirmed.

Even if Lin Mu didn't know about Drakes, he very well knew about dragons. In the memoirs of the Lost Immortal, there were several mentions about dragons. Not only that, but the Lost Immortal had even fought against several dragons before.

After all… the Nameless Technique of the Lost Immortal was formed after the Lost Immoral Studied many different creatures and some of these creatures were Dragons!

Lin Mu also knew that there were many different types of dragons having varying levels of strengths. The Lost Immortal had fought dragons that were as weak enough for him to kill them with a single slap and ones that were strong enough that he had fainted just from being in their presence.

The Lost Immortal had several run-ins with Dragons too. In fact, a couple of times when he was pushed to the brink of starvation was due to the dragons!

Once it was because he had been chased for long enough that he got trapped in a minor dimension he couldn't come out of for many years. Then the second time was when he had been intentionally caught by another dragon.

Lin Mu couldn't read much after that, as the information seemed to be hidden from him for some reason. 

He had been coming upon with such restricted information a lot these days and understood that this must be due to him having an insufficient cultivation base. Like senior Xukong, the wooden slip that contained the memoirs of the Lost Immortal seemed to be able to restrict its contents depending on Lin Mu's cultivation base.

The stronger he got, the more information he would get to learn. Not just that, but he could revisit the old records that he had already read and find more information that he had not understood before.

Lin Mu had never stopped reading the Memoirs of the Lost Immortal and did so whenever he had free time. Whether he be flying somewhere or sleeping. He would often read on Little Shrubby's back whenever they were traveling somewhere.

It allowed him to grow stronger in knowledge without wasting any moment of time.

Lin Mu knew that he was at a disadvantage when compared to those that were blessed by the heavens and lived in the higher worlds. Thus, if he ever wanted to compete against them, he needed to work several times harder than them.

He had never stopped persevering because of that.

"What kind of a drake do you think this could be, senior?" Lin Mu asked.

"That is hard to tell. Just as there are many variations of dragons, there are even more variations of lower ranked dragons and the other species that contain their bloodlines. Dragons as such are… rather pa.s.sionate and leave behind a lot of offspring.

Their bloodline is also rather dominant and can take over others, making it easy for them to breed with many different beasts. It is said that Dragons were among the first beasts to ever be born and thus could be considered one of the first ancestor of the beasts.

This allows them a superiority that not many beasts have. And it also makes it complicated to find out what their bloodlines are since they can get mixed with others very easily and hide.

In fact, the bloodline of the dragons isn't as rare as one would think; they are quite common. What's truly rare is a bloodline that is actually active and useful. Even the common fishes, snakes and many other reptiles have dormant traces of the Dragon bloodlines." Xukong explained, surprising Lin Mu.

Dragons were something even people of the Xiaofan world knew and were seen as legends. Some were directly revered as deities, and their depictions were seen in many places and kingdoms.

Even though a real dragon had never been seen in the Xiaofan world.

"The common feature of the Drakes is the pattern of their claws. This tells us that it is a drake, though I'm thinking that if that beast was still alive from its appearance, it would look rather similar to a lizard beast.

Only from its aura and bloodline would one be able to identify if it really is a drake." Xukong added.

"I see… then if King Hong has a.s.similated this power, won't we know if he can display is aura fully?" Lin Mu suggested.

"That might be possible. If we are lucky, the aura of the Drake's bloodline might still be present in him. Though it might have disappeared by this time, too." Xukong replied.

"We may as well try it." Lin Mu said before looking at King Hong.

Ten minutes had pa.s.sed since Lin Mu had been looking through the records and King Hong didn't know he was talking with Xukong. 

"King Hong, can you fully unleash your cultivation base and aura? I might be able to learn what beast it really was." Lin Mu asked.

"Sure… but it might be better if we move somewhere more open. I don't want to damage the palace again.." King Hong spoke remembering the many accidents he's had over the past couple of years.
