Beneath the Huai River.

Ji Zheng's massive dragon body lay in the mud as he opened his personal template.

A screen visible only to him rose before his eyes.

[Name: Ji Zheng.]

[Race: Horned Dragon.]

[Cultivation: 7933 (Years).]

[Talents: Summoning Wind and Rain, Leader of Scales, Riding Clouds and Mist, Dragon Might, Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Disaster, Ability to Grow and Shrink.]

[Duty: Huai River Water God (60%).]

[Lifespan: 10662256 (Years)]

[Current State: Prime of Life (You are at your peak, capable of unleashing your full power).]

[Evaluation: You are a Horned Dragon who has almost reached the limit of your race. Your strength is enough to fight ordinary myths, but you are still unable to cope with top myths. However, this does not detract from your great potential. Possessing ‘Gui Water’ and ‘Jia Wood,’ you have the possibility of evolving once again, but your future seems to have become unknown. No one knows in which direction your next evolution will develop.]

This…

Ji Zheng was stunned.

He looked at the personal template only because he wanted to see if he could still evolve into an Ying Dragon if he evolved.

What the personal template said…

He can't evolve into an Ying Dragon anymore?

The evaluation in this template still mentioned that he could evolve into an Ying Dragon when he looked at it last time.

But now it's gone.

Does this mean that he can no longer evolve into an Ying Dragon?

"The future has become unknown…"

Ji Zheng was silent.

This already threw the result in his face. No one knows what he will evolve into next time.

If he's lucky, he might evolve into some kind of dragon.

If he's unlucky, he will directly evolve into a chimera, which would be embarrassing.

"That's great, I don't even know what to evolve into."

Ji Zheng knew very well that if he underwent the next evolution, his strength would definitely increase greatly.

But now he's told that the future evolution is unknown, and there are no evolution conditions.

He still has to rely on simulation.

Try it in the simulation, how to carry out the next evolution.

"If you want to improve your strength, the most direct way is to evolve."

"However, exploring evolution requires a lot of time. Delaying the reconnection of heaven and earth still needs to be done."

"The matter of establishing a force still needs to be based on stability, and can't be like last time."

Ji Zheng was thinking about the next simulation.

He lay at the bottom of the water, with no intention of moving.

As he thought, suddenly, in his perception, a familiar feeling surged into his heart. He raised his dragon head and looked out of the Huai River.

Through the river water, he saw at a glance the great sun hanging in the sky. The intense temperature could still be clearly felt through the river water.

"Golden Crow? Why did this guy come? The simulation didn't say that this guy would come."

Ji Zheng only thought for a moment before he understood.

In his last simulation, he ran to find the Jianmu Divine Tree as soon as possible, so of course he couldn't meet the Golden Crow.

It is estimated that the last time he was sleeping, the Golden Crow came to the Huai River and learned of his existence.

That's why he came to find him now.

Ji Zheng's feelings for the Golden Crow are actually very complicated. In the previous simulations, the Golden Crow killed him many times because it wanted flesh and blood to revive the Fusang Tree.

But in the later simulations, when his strength came up, the Golden Crow treated him differently, making him feel that the Golden Crow was a pretty good friend.

At least in terms of personality, the Golden Crow made him feel very comfortable, upright and daring.

Unlike a certain bird, who only knows how to scheme all day long, the Golden Crow will make it clear before it wants to kill you.

"As for dealing with the Golden Crow… let's deal with it by befriending it for the time being."

Ji Zheng didn't want to cause more trouble.

He immediately twisted his dragon body and rushed out of the lake.

In the rushing Huai River, a black dragon more than a thousand meters long rushed out of the water. At the moment when the black dragon appeared, dark clouds billowed in the sky, and thunder rumbled.

The scorching heat brought about by the great sun shining in the sky was instantly dissipated.

If someone were standing on a high mountain near the Huai River at this time, they would be able to see a black dragon head protruding from a dense cloud, overlooking a round of great sun.

An invisible sense of oppression arose spontaneously.

High in the sky, Ji Zheng was looking at the Golden Crow in front of him.

With his current strength, the Golden Crow is completely not his opponent.

Not to mention just one Golden Crow, even two, Ji Zheng can easily overturn them.

"This is the Golden Crow."

Ji Zheng looked down at the great sun in front of him. In his sight, the Golden Crow was just a black crow, except that this crow had three legs and emitted a red light, and the red light radiated outward, forming the great sun.

This was the first time Ji Zheng had seen the Golden Crow in reality, and he couldn't help but be a little curious.

According to legend, the Golden Crow is the sun, the ten suns in the sky, Kuafu chasing the sun, Yi shooting down the nine suns and other stories are all related to the Golden Crow.

"Huai River Dragon Lord…"

"Why haven't I ever heard of your existence before? A powerful god like you should not be unknown."

The Golden Crow in the great sun looked incredulous, and its bird eyes, which were already as big as copper bells, widened by a circle.

It was counting in its heart.

Among the gods in the heaven, is there such an existence?

It couldn't remember that there was such a person as Ji Zheng.

But it inexplicably felt that Ji Zheng was very terrifying.

What period is it now?

It's the period when heaven and earth haven't reconnected!

Heaven and earth haven't reconnected, the combat power that their gods can exert is at most only 10% or 20%.

This horned dragon on the opposite side is so terrifying with only 10% or 20% of its power?

The Golden Crow inexplicably wanted to ask Ying Dragon, is the horned dragon so terrifying in the Ying Dragon evolution chain?

The Golden Crow infinitely made up its mind.

"Golden Crow, you have entered my territory, what is the purpose?"

Ji Zheng opened his bloody mouth, and the dragon might on his body was released inadvertently.

His dragon might gave the Golden Crow great pressure.

"Huai River Dragon Lord, I came before, there is nothing else, just sensed that there is a god in the Huai River, so I came to visit, I hope you don't blame me. Our two families' territories are adjacent, and we can communicate more in the future."

The Golden Crow hovered in the air, looking very polite.

Ji Zheng was stunned by this appearance.

That's not right.

He should have already figured out the Golden Crow's personality in the simulation.

It seems domineering to existences with weak strength.

For existences with strong strength, it is upright.

What's going on with this Golden Crow in front of me?

Ji Zheng felt a little surprised.

This Golden Crow is too friendly…

This conversation did not last long.

After the Golden Crow stated that it was just here to visit a 'neighbor', it quickly left, and its back in Ji Zheng's eyes had a taste of 'fleeing in panic'.

Ji Zheng felt inexplicable, but he still returned to the Huai River, preparing for the next simulation.

Beneath the Huai River.

With the Dragon Palace of the Huai River undergoing reconstruction, Ji Zheng didn't reside in the palace but instead lay in the silt at the bottom of the Huai River.

Ji Zheng put the matter of the Golden Crow's visit out of his mind and began to think about the next simulation.

“For the simulation, I must figure out what the next evolution will be like.”

“Then there's the matter of preventing the reconnection of heaven and earth. Establishing a force is acceptable, but the force doesn't need to be too large. The Kun Peng, however, must be kept under control.”

Ji Zheng pondered.

The Kun Peng was a necessary element. Without the Kun Peng, Buzhou Mountain could not be restored.

As long as the Kun Peng remained by his side, the reconnection of heaven and earth would be impossible.

However, how should he proceed with the evolution?

Perhaps, he could seek out Ying Long.

Ying Long undoubtedly had a plan.

Although he didn't know the specifics of the plan, it wasn't hard to guess that Ying Long greatly desired him to evolve into the second Ying Long in the world.

Since Ying Long greatly desired his evolution, perhaps he could have Ying Long help him evolve.

As for what he would ultimately evolve into…

That, he couldn't say for sure.

Ji Zheng suddenly felt that it was very feasible.

“Start the simulation.”

Ji Zheng didn't want to delay any longer.

He immediately started the simulation.

【Simulation started, consuming 4096 simulation points, current simulation points remaining: 14973.】

【Day 1: You are in the depths of the Huai River. You yearn to evolve again, but you have no way to do so. You decide to go to the Jianmu Divine Tree to seek help from Ying Long.

You immediately take action, leave the Huai River, and head towards the Jianmu Divine Tree.】

【Day 2: The Jianmu Divine Tree revives, and you arrive at the Jianmu Divine Tree at this time. However, you have no malice, so you wait outside the Jianmu Divine Tree.

Before long, a being with a mud-dragon body flies over. You know that this is Ying Long. Before Ying Long can make a move, you speak first, stating that you want to ask Ying Long for help in taking the next step in evolution.

When Ying Long learns that you have already comprehended the Gui Water, and that your cultivation is close to eight thousand years, and that your bloodline also belongs to the gods of the heavens, he is overjoyed.

Ying Long takes you back under the Jianmu Divine Tree…】

This Ying Long…

He gets so excited at the mention of him also evolving into Ying Long.

I really don't know what his plan is.

Ji Zheng couldn't help but be curious.

In the simulation, he had learned a lot from Ying Long.

Ying Long liked to help some Jiao dragons transform into dragons.

When he was transforming into a Jiao, Ying Long had secretly helped him.

Now it seems that Ying Long has been urging those Jiao dragons to transform into dragons, and then, like raising Gu worms, raise an Ying Long?

What exactly is Ying Long planning?

Ji Zheng continued to look at the simulation with doubts.

【Day 3: Ying Long brings you under the Jianmu Divine Tree. Under the Jianmu Divine Tree, you clearly feel your affinity for wood rapidly increasing.

Ying Long can't help but look at you, asking how you comprehended the wood attribute. You answer Ying Long that the wood attribute was comprehended by mistake.

After hearing this, Ying Long falls into silence, as if thinking about whether you can evolve into Ying Long.】

【Day 4: Ying Long finally recovers and tells you to try to evolve. Although you have the wood attribute, you should still be able to evolve into Ying Long.

However, after you say that your Jia Wood is even stronger than Gui Water, Ying Long falls into silence again.】

【Day 5: Ying Long recovers again and tells you to stop improving the wood attribute from today onwards, and to focus on improving the water attribute, which may allow you to transform into Ying Long.

You can't help but curiously ask Ying Long, if both the water and wood attributes are no longer improved, and you evolve according to the current situation, what will you evolve into?

Ying Long hesitates for a moment, then answers you that evolving in your current state may lead to bloodline degradation, and you may likely turn into a strange appearance, such as a bull-headed dragon body, etc.

If you transform into such a strange appearance, if you are lucky, you may gain powerful strength. If you are unlucky, it may lead to a decline in combat power.

Ying Long also tells you not to let your imagination run wild, and to evolve with Ying Long as the goal. Every chain of evolution is formed with countless hardships.】

Evolving in the current situation may lead to a strange appearance, which is like a 'four unlike'?

Speaking of which, how does it feel a bit like 'The Dragon's Nine Sons'?

Each dragon looks different, with strange appearances, and their abilities are also different. Some abilities are very mediocre, while others are stronger.

Ji Zheng was silent.

Regardless of ability, he didn't want this kind of image.

However, Ying Long said later that every chain of evolution is formed with countless hardships.

It seems that as far as he knows.

Among the dragon species, only Ying Long has an evolutionary chain, giving all dragon species a chance, a chance to evolve into Ying Long.

Therefore, Ying Long is also called 'Ancestor Dragon' in mythology.

Forming an evolutionary chain is enough to be called the Ancestor Dragon.

Ji Zheng inexplicably had some fantasies, whether he would have this opportunity in the future to become the 'Ancestor Dragon'?

Of course, Ji Zheng was just thinking about it.

He knew his own weight very well.

The simulation continued.

【Day 6: After listening to what Ying Long said, you don't have any confidence in whether you can form an evolutionary chain yourself, so you start to improve the water attribute, so that the water attribute surpasses the wood attribute.

Ying Long can't help but feel satisfied seeing you so obedient.】

【Day 7: You find that practicing under the Jianmu Divine Tree, your wood attribute improves much faster than the water attribute. You tell Ying Long about this, and Ying Long tells you to stay away from the Jianmu Divine Tree to practice.

You naturally agree. Before you leave, you ask Ying Long, if the evolution standard is reached, how can you evolve?

Ying Long tells you that if one day you feel that the surroundings become very strange, then the tribulation has arrived, and the evolution has begun.

Moreover, Ying Long tells you that the most difficult thing when evolving Ying Long is not cultivation and elemental perception, those are just the necessary foundations. The most terrifying thing about evolving Ying Long is the tribulation. The tests of heaven and earth are everywhere, and you can't imagine where the tests of heaven and earth will be.

After listening quietly, you leave the Jianmu Divine Tree and go to other places to practice.】

The most difficult thing about evolving Ying Long is that the tests of heaven and earth are everywhere?

Ji Zheng suddenly thought that when he was transforming from a Jiao to a dragon, he also had the tribulation test of heaven and earth, which was the small village blocking the estuary.

That small village must have disappeared after he had already passed by.

He had once seen in the simulation that this was how heaven and earth tested him.

According to Ying Long, will there be many, many more tests like this in the future? If you make a mistake, it's over?
