The Black Dragon King led the Hua Xia people into a spiritual脉 cave, and presented a stone bowl as if it were a treasure.
"Come, children, a drop each. This is truly good stuff. Ten thousand years of Stone Marrow can improve physique, expand meridians, and strengthen physical talent." The Black Dragon King flicked his finger, and everyone received a drop of Stone Marrow.
"There are a few drops left for young Lin and those two little brats. You children should enter a state of cultivation and refine the Stone Marrow. There's a formation here that can speed up your absorption of spiritual energy. Below us is a spiritual脉, so how much you can absorb depends on your own abilities." The Black Dragon King disappeared with the stone bowl.
Jiang Zheng spoke, "Alright, friends, this is a rare opportunity. Everyone, let's do our best."
"Boss, what about those two little brats?" The Black Dragon King instantly appeared beside his elder brother.
"Aren't they just becoming food sacks? They're eating right now," the Black Dragon Emperor pointed at Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei, who were feasting.
The Black Dragon King watched Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei shove all sorts of spiritual herbs, fruits, and crystal cores into their mouths. "The two little brats have good appetites. Come, ancestor will add a little more for you."
With that, he flicked six more drops of Stone Marrow into the mouths of Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei, who were currently stuffing themselves.
"Wuwu, Brother Snake, what new treasure is this that you're feeding us?" Xiao Hei mumbled, his mouth full of spiritual items.
"I don't know, it happened too fast to taste anything. But these two ancestors are truly generous, all delicious things." Xiao Jin, also a food sack, mumbled as well.
"Second brother, feeding these two food sacks three drops each, isn't that too much? After all, these two little fellows are still at a low level."
"It's fine, big brother. Didn't we eat like this back then? Yan is definitely tricking young Lin into stewing medicine right now. In a while, we'll stew these two little brats and young Lin in the same pot, and they can absorb the medicinal effects for two days." The Black Dragon King said matter-of-factly. So, being a food sack was hereditary.
"You two little brats, eat more. Ancestor doesn't have much else, but spiritual items are in abundance. When ancestor goes out, I'll pick a tasty race and kill a couple of king-level ones for you two to feast on," the Black Dragon King said gleefully, looking at the two food sacks whose bellies had grown twice their size.
"Wuwu wuwu, the ancestor is the most generous. When Hei Zi and I grow up, we will definitely honor you, ancestor." Xiao Jin, with a mouth full of spiritual herbs, mumbled again.
"Good, good, such filial children. Eat more, otherwise, you won't be good to stew. I'm going to see how young Lin's medicinal soup is stewing."
"Brother Snake, what did the ancestor say he's stewing?"
"What else could he be stewing? It's definitely the big boss stewing something delicious, isn't it? Otherwise, would he be stewing us? Hurry up and eat more, brother. This opportunity won't come again."
The Black Dragon King then appeared beside Yu Long Yan. "My prediction was correct. You really had young Lin stewing medicinal soup."
Lin Zhan was standing on a large cauldron with a diameter of thirty meters, throwing all sorts of spiritual herbs and stones into it.
"Second brother, there are only these few drops of Stone Marrow left in the bowl. Feed them all to young Lin," Yu Long Yan said, looking at the Stone Marrow in the stone bowl.
"Will that be enough? There are still five drops of Stone Marrow."
"It's fine, give it to him. I was planning to stew this kid for a couple more days anyway. Do you still have the king-level divine beast blood essence? Put some in too."
"King-level is gone. I still have quite a bit of emperor-level divine blood. Don't you remember? Our third battle was when we took down those four divine emperors, and that's when we got injured and fell into slumber."
"Divine race blood essence? It's not that great, I don't care for it. Why don't you just let me have a drop of your blood? Your peak emperor-level Black Dragon is much stronger than that divine emperor blood." Hearing that there was no divine beast blood, Yu Long Yan set his sights on the Black Dragon King.
"It's better to use big brother's blood than mine. He has a better understanding of more great dao laws than I do, which will be more beneficial for the future of these little fellows." The Black Dragon King immediately refused to have his blood drawn and quickly betrayed his elder brother.
"That works too. Give me the stone bowl, and you have big brother bring those two little brats here."
"Young Lin, come here."
"Eat this. This is a rare treasure, Stone Marrow that only forms once every ten thousand years," the Black Dragon King said, handing the stone bowl to Lin Zhan.
Upon hearing that it was a treasure, Lin Zhan drank it down in one gulp without a word. He then carefully examined the stone bowl in his hand. "Hmm, a bowl that holds treasure must also be a treasure."
Yu Long Yan was a little stunned watching Lin Zhan put the stone bowl directly into his storage space. "This brat is too shameless, not even sparing a bowl."
Space flickered, and the Black Dragon Emperor appeared with the deformed Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei and his brother.
"Holy cow, what did you two do? You've gotten this fat. You couldn't have gotten this fast even if you ate fertilizer." Lin Zhan said in surprise, looking at Xiao Jin and Xiao Hei who had become round as balls.
"Boss, the ancestors dote on us too much, all good things, we ate to our heart's content."
"Boss, reveal your true form and let these three brats have a look, and by the way, add a drop of your blood essence to the golden cauldron," Yu Long Yan said to the Black Dragon Emperor.
"So you tricked second brother into getting me here just to bleed me." The Black Dragon Emperor didn't say much more, and directly transformed into a ten-thousand-meter-long black dragon, flying into the sky. He opened his mouth and spat out a drop of blood essence, which fell into the golden cauldron.
Lin Zhan, Xiao Jin, and Xiao Hei stared with wide eyes, their mouths agape, and said in unison, "Holy crap, that's huge."
"Boss, the ancestor's physique is too awesome. My dad is like an earthworm compared to the ancestor," Xiao Jin said, comparing himself to his father.
"What kind of comparison is that? But the ancestor is truly huge. A single strand of his hair is thicker than my father's waist." They are family after all; Lin Zhan and Xiao Jin are both sons who diss their fathers.
"Boss, Brother Snake, at least you two have a father to compare with. I've forgotten what my father looks like, so what can I compare with? Besides, even if I remembered what he looked like, it's unlikely he'd have claws as big as the ancestor's." This seemingly honest Xiao Hei wasn't much better.
"Yan, I suddenly feel like these three brats aren't cute at all." The Black Dragon King felt a little annoyed looking at these three sons who were betraying their fathers.
Yu Long Yan watched as the medicinal soup in the golden cauldron began to boil, and the aroma of spiritual herbs filled the air. "It's almost ready. The three of you, go in."
Lin Zhan, Xiao Jin, Xiao Hei... ???
"Ancestor, that's boiling water, people will die! This joke is not funny at all," Lin Zhan said, completely bewildered.
"Ancestor doesn't have time to joke with you three brats." Yu Long Yan said as he threw one person and two beasts into the golden cauldron.
"Ah, the snake is going to be cooked, help! The ancestor wants to cook Lin Zhan, the snake, and the turtle in one pot!"
"Wuwu wuwu, I still haven't escaped the fate of being stewed. Is my great turtle life ending like this?"
"It's over. Boss and Brother Snake are not moving. Are they cooked?"
"Get lost, I'm fine. You two, stop making such a fuss. Try to cultivate. This medicinal soup is extraordinary." After speaking, Lin Zhan entered a state of meditation to cultivate.
"At least you have some brains." Yu Long Yan waved his hand and put a lid on the golden cauldron.
"Do you two still have any wine? Don't tell me, the stewed flavor of these three kids actually smells good."
