Transcendent Ember

Chapter 547 Dragon Clan
"You mean..." After hearing Zhang Jichuan read the four words on the plaque, Yu Ren seemed to be petrified. He turned to Zhang Jichuan bit by bit, widened his eyes, and asked in a tone of shock, "What is this?" The four characters are 'Dragon Temple'?"

"That's right." Zhang Jichuan nodded with certainty, and he himself was a little surprised by these four words.

Since traveling to this world, he has seen many creatures that only appeared in film and television works, myths and legends before, and even dealt with these creatures in person.

But there is only one legendary creature that he has never seen before...

That's the dragon!

Zhang Jichuan once killed a strange beast named Wagner Dragon in Discord Island, but that beast was a mutated lizard; he also saw a strange beast named Hantan Flood Dragon in Ice Crystal Mountain , but that kind of strange beast is better like a jiao than a dragon.

Zhang Jichuan had never seen a real dragon.

Zhang Jichuan once suspected that there is no such thing as a dragon in this world, but now, he has come to a place called the Dragon Temple...

"Dragon..." Putting on a 'Hugh Bandler's Diving Suit', Norris held her breath and looked at the others.

The expression of the latter was incomparably wonderful, and his eyes, which were always like dead fish, showed an unprecedented brilliance. He murmured: "Could it be that the legend is true, that there are really dragons in the world?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Jichuan, with the 'Goddess of Victory of Samothrace' floating above his head, looked at the others curiously, "Don't you Sea Clan know whether there are dragons in the world?"

"Yeah." Yu Ren nodded, and said while spitting out bubbles, "In the history of the Sea Clan, the Dragon Clan has never been recorded, but in the folklore, the legends about the Dragon Clan have never stopped.

"According to legend, before 2000 years, your land creatures and our sea race were still in the age of ignorance. At that time, the dragon race was already the overlord of the endless ocean...

"Later, as Li Qingcang, the forerunner among you humans, unearthed extraordinary items and designated items for the extraordinary world, the Sea Clan began to rise.

"The Sea Clan who became extraordinary creatures gradually explored the entire ocean, but they didn't find any trace of the Dragon Clan...

"The argument about the non-existence of the dragon race has been rampant since then, and has gained the upper hand. But there are always some sea people who firmly believe that the dragon race must exist. These people believe that at the end of the age of ignorance, the dragon race went to the other side of the ocean with the gods and demons..."

"Wait..." Zhang Jichuan interrupted the others, and asked in surprise, "You Sea Clan also have legends about gods and demons?"

"Of course." The rest of the people took it for granted, "Gods and demons are the masters of the ignorant age. How could they only walk on land? Among our sea clan, the most popular names of gods and demons are 'Huangquan Gods and Demons', 'Tiantian Gods and Demons' and 'Eight Gods and Demons'..."

"Understood." Zhang Jichuan nodded. To this day, he still doesn't know what kind of existence these gods and demons are in essence, but this is not the point. He motioned to Yu Ren and said, "Go on."

Yu people nodded, and continued: "As time goes by, the sea people believe more and more that in this season's civilization, the so-called dragon race does not exist, they are just gods in the last season's civilization, leaving behind some myths.

"In order to avoid the attacks of sea beasts, the early sea tribes took these myths seriously and regarded them as the patron saint of endless sea tribes...

"Some scholars even believe that long before Li Qingcang unearthed the first supernatural item, the sea tribe had come into contact with the supernatural item. They knew the dragon, the legendary master of the ocean, from the supernatural item, but the sea tribe did not Can create the secret method of identification like Li Qingcang, so there is a legend of the dragon clan...

"However, although this point of view has almost become a consensus, there are still some Sea Clans who believe in the existence of the Dragon Clan, and many Sea Clans keep saying that they have seen the Dragon Clan.

"It's just that these claims have never been confirmed. I remember that the last time someone said that they had seen the Dragon Clan was more than 500 years ago in the Extraordinary Calendar. After that, no one seems to have publicly said that they have seen the Dragon Clan..."

Norris nodded, then frowned again: "But Mr. Deep Sea, how do you explain this dragon temple?"

"That's what I'm wondering too..." The rest of the people wrinkled their faces and were extremely puzzled, "You guys say, is it possible that this is the dragon temple of civilization in the last season?"

"Impossible!" Zhang Jichuan denied, "Last season of civilization, there were no dragons."

"How do you know?" Yu Ren was dissatisfied and said, "My 'Prime Minister Turtle's Official Hat' mentioned the Dragon King..."

Zhang Jichuan looked into his eyes, and said firmly: "Just because I am an archaeologist... As for the 'Prime Minister Turtle's official hat', you can see for yourself which category it belongs to?"

"Literature and art..." Yu Ren replied subconsciously, and then his face changed slightly, "You mean..."

"Yes." Zhang Jichuan nodded, and said with great certainty, "The so-called supernatural items of literature and art are all myths and legends, literary works, and film and television works from the last season of civilization..."

"Ah?" Norris exclaimed. She had also heard of similar viewpoints, especially after all Transcendent items were magically classified last June, some scholars put forward such viewpoints.

However, the scholars who put forward this point of view are only speculating, and they are not as absolute as Zhang Jichuan.

Zhang Jichuan shook his head, without explaining, just said: "Just remember this conclusion, there were no dragons in the last season of civilization!"

"If that's the case..." The rest of the people didn't hesitate, and followed Zhang Jichuan's thinking to analyze, and their faces gradually became surprised, "Then, this dragon temple..."

"That's right!" Zhang Jichuan broke his guess, "This temple is a product of this season's civilization!"

Speaking of this, he raised the thin slice he picked up before: "Dragon clan, it really exists! And this is the dragon scale!"

Yu Ren closed his gills, held his breath, and murmured after a while: "If what you said is true, hundreds of millions of sea people will go crazy!"

"Let them go crazy..." Zhang Jichuan laughed, "Let's take our own risks first... Ms. Norris, the Dragon Temple, is the position pointed by the navigation mark of the 'Zheng He Treasure Ship'??"

Norris closed her eyes for a while, then opened her eyes, and said in surprise: "That's right, the beacon is pointing to this dragon temple."

"Then there's no problem." Zhang Jichuan said with a smile, "Ms. Norris, Dragon Temple, is it a good place for adventure?"

Norris' eyes brightened, and she nodded heavily: "Yes!"

Yu Ren: "..."

He watched helplessly as Zhang Jichuan directed his avatar into the Dragon Temple.

The avatar of Zhang Jichuan held the "Scythe of Death" tightly, and walked into the Dragon Temple with great vigilance.

Under the tense and apprehensive gazes of the three, nothing happened. This dragon temple seemed to have been lost for a long time, and the building had already been emptied, and no creature appeared to stop Zhang Jichuan's incarnation.

Only then did the three follow up.

The dragon temple is built with 'hydrazite' as the main material, which is the most precious stone in the endless sea.In addition, the ground is covered with crystals of water elements, and the collapsed walls are inlaid with a large number of pearls and crystals of different colors. In the gaps between the palaces, many corals, thousand spirit water plants, and seven sea treasure trees are planted...

It's a pity that the baptism of endless years has caused these treasures to wither, to bury, to lose their vitality.

The avatar of Zhang Jichuan continued to explore inwardly.

"Zhang Jichuan..." The rest of the people looked envious, "Your ability to guide avatars is really good. You are really necessary for traveling at home, killing people and setting fires. Sell it to me."

Zhang Jichuan was happy: "Even if I give it to you, you can't bind it!"

The rest of the people naturally don't believe it...

Amidst the noise, the three of them had already entered the Dragon Clan Temple for a certain distance. Under the cover of the mud, they found more dragon scales, big and small, and in different colors.

"It seems that in some unknown historical period, there were many real dragons entrenched in this dragon temple." Norris speculated, "These dragon scales are obviously not from the same dragon."

Zhang Jichuan and the others agreed and continued to explore the depths of the Dragon Temple.

The dragon temple is very large. After all, judging by the dragon scales, the dragons are not small in size.Zhang Jichuan and the others explored for several hours, but only explored a small area.

However, they didn't find anything useful in the Dragon Temple except for the not-so-small dragon scales.

"Why do I feel that when the dragons left the temple, they took all the things they could take away?" Yu Ren couldn't help complaining, "This is nothing but decorations and green plants!"

"It seems that when the Dragon Clan left, they had plenty of time." Norris also said, "I packed everything and took it away."

Zhang Jichuan couldn't help being disappointed, why didn't he want to find some treasures in the Dragon Temple?
Looks like I'm going to be disappointed...

After another half day, finally, Zhang Jichuan's incarnation was discovered!
After getting the feedback, Zhang Jichuan was moved, and called Norris and Yu Ren to run towards the direction of the avatar, leaving a lot of bubbles along the way...

They saw several tombs!

"Tomb?" The rest of the people were taken aback, and said in disbelief, "The dragon clan will die too?"

"If you don't regard the Dragon Race as a kind of god, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal, right?" Zhang Jichuan said casually, walked to a tombstone and looked up.

On the tombstone more than ten meters high, there is simply a series of vigorous characters engraved in Jindingwen:

Compatriots who have suffered so much, may your soul return to the sanctuary of origin...

"What do you mean?" The rest of the people were confused after Zhang Jichuan finished reading, "The dragon race will also suffer a lot? Also, what is the place of origin?"

Norris couldn't understand either.

Zhang Jichuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "How about we dig it up and have a look?"
