Chapter 207: Dragon Knight or Dragon’s Knight?

Shen Tian wiped his sweat after the arrogant Dragon Lady confronted him.

“Senior, you made a promise just now, remember? You said you wouldn’t be angry with me.”

Ao Bing said proudly, “Indeed, I made a promise about that just now. But that was if you guys did not manage to bring me out.

“However, I’m freed by you now. Thus, that promise’s condition is invalid now. Do you think it still works?”

Shen Tian, “???”

Excuse me? You belong to the prideful dragon race! What is this nonsense?

Ao Bing bent over in front of Shen Tian and stared at him straight in the eyes. Her well-developed figure was right in front of his eyes.

She smiled and said, “Relax! I’m the eldest princess in the dragon race. I won’t lie to you.

“Make your wish to the Dragon God! After that, you will become a Dragon Knight that only appears less than once every thousand years.

“The Black Dragon Island and I will be there to protect you then. No one in the five regions will dare to mess with you. This is a dream that most people would not even dare to think about!”

Shen Tian still felt something was not right about the deal. “But Senior—”

Ao Bing flicked Shen Tian’s forehead with her delicate finger and said, “You are going to sign the contract soon. There is no need to call me Senior anymore.

“Just call me Sister Bing!” She gave Shen Tian a coquettish glance.

Sister Bing?

Shen Tian stared at Ao Bing with a strange look, his mouth twitching.

You are at least 10,000 years older than me! Who gives you the courage to relate yourself with the word ‘sister’?

Ao Bing saw through Shen Tian’s thought and ground her teeth in anger. “Why? Do you have a problem with that?

“Although I was sealed for 10,000 years, I was just sleeping peacefully.

“Thus, this seemingly long period is merely 1,000 years for me. This means that I am, still, very, young!”

Shen Tian processed the logic behind her words and continued to stare at her with the same strange look.

So you are a few thousand years old, and I have to call you sister?

The black flame flickered in Ao Bing’s soul, and it heated up the surroundings.

She stared back at Shen Tian angrily. “Kid, you are pushing my limit!

“Fine, since there is no contract yet, I can just kill you right here!”

Shen Tian felt Ao Bing’s immense killing intent and quickly behaved himself.

He started the contract immediately:

“I, Shen Tian, take you, Ao Bing, to be my lawful companion.

“To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do us part.”

The moment he finished reciting the oath, the black light ball in the void split in two.

One of them sank into Shen Tian’s body, while the other into Ao Bing’s.

Shen Tian finally understood what exactly was this contract with the Dragon God.

It was actually a symbiotic relationship, just like bees and flowers in nature.

After the contract, the human could receive a part of the dragon’s power origin, and they were even allowed to cultivate the True Dragon Imperial Sutra.

At the same time, the contracted dragon would have high synergy with its human counterpart and could produce combo attacks together. Thus, if they were to fight together in combat, it would no longer be 1+1=2—their power would be much greater!

For a powerful Dragon Knight, fighting against cultivators that had higher cultivation levels than them was very common.

“Good for you!” Ao Bing nodded in satisfaction after Shen Tian completed the contract. “In the future, you’ll be my man.

“If you meet any trouble outside, just say my name. No one will dare to bully you then!”

Ao Bing’s soul began to fade away. “That’s about all that I wanted to say. I’m going to Nirvana soon. In the next few days, you have to protect this dragon egg carefully. After my resurrection, I’ll reward you!”

Then, Ao Bing’s soul disappeared in the black dragon egg.

The egg had absorbed all the light and remained motionless.

Ao Bing had been badly injured before being sealed for 10,000 years. The best and fastest way to recover was through rebirth.

A special heritage memory suddenly appeared in Shen Tian’s mind. It was the True Dragon Imperial Sutra, the complete set other than the forbidden chapter!

This was the legendary heritage that could only be cultivated after the royal Black Dragons’ acknowledgment.

Naturally, this heritage excited Shen Tian as the True Dragon Imperial Sutra was completely different from the Divine Firmament Lightning Imperial Sutra.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground focused mainly on cultivating Dharma techniques, so the Lightning Imperial Sutra had plenty of such techniques. Although there was the Lightning Emperor Body Tempering Art, it was merely a supplement.

However, the True Dragon Imperial Sutra was a pure body-tempering art. The entire content was about how to train a physical body comparable to the dragon.

At the same time, many ancient offensive skills that the dragon race used were recorded in it. For example, the Dragon Claw, Dragon Step, Dragon Halberd, Dragon Breath, Dragon Slash, Dragon Armor, Dragon Hammer…

These skills had been created by strong cultivators in the Primordial Age, showcasing the expertise of ancient dragons in combat. Each of these skills’ battle prowess could shock all the five regions. Thus, these skills were precious to Shen Tian as he had a well-built body but was weak in close combat.

The Dragon Claw could enhance the cultivator’s finger strength and give them the ability to snap Spirit artifacts with bare hands.

After mastering the Dragon Step, one could shrink an entire mountain under their feet and destroy it simply by stepping on it.

The Dragon Slash was very compatible with Shen Tian as he had the Divine Devouring Vine. This skill could boost it greatly.

The Dragon Hammer was an ice-type hammer skill that a genius of the ancient dragon race had created. It was useful to Shen Tian too, as he owned the First Essence Heavy Water and the Purple Golden Hammer.

…

Shen Tian took a piece of silk out of his Archeon Sea Ring, wrapped the black dragon egg, and carried it on his back with a sigh.

What happened to the promised Dragon Knight?

Why am I carrying this princess like her knight now?

What a scam!

Nevermind, since she gave me the True Dragon Imperial Sutra, I’ll forgive her. I’ll have a ride on her one day too!

“The commotion we created has drawn the attention of other people. We need to find some safe place,” Shen Tian said calmly.

Safety was always first in the Primordial Battlefield!

The group roamed around the battlefield and encountered many waves of undead monsters. Some were skeletons, some were blood demons, and some were even Yin demons…

Anyway, they did not manage to run away from a single monster.

However, it was not important at all. All these monsters were too weak for Shen Tian right now. They were a good moving target for Shen Tian to familiarize himself with the new skills he had learned!

Shen Tian picked a few weak monsters and threw them to the rest to practice too.

That was the whole purpose of the joint training—the cultivators should accumulate battle experience by fighting with the monsters.

Shen Tian could not babysit them throughout the trial. It would not be beneficial for them if they stayed idle here, and Shen Tian would be bored if he had to deal with these weak monsters for too long.

It would be best for the team to gather some experience too.

As they fought one battle after the other, the team became more familiar with their attacks and could cooperate very well.

The bloody sun set slowly, and darkness engulfed the entire battlefield.

The team found a relatively safe valley before there was no light at all. The valley had only one entrance, so it would be very safe once all the monsters were cleared.

The team sealed the entrance with an array formation and rested in it.

…

They looked through what they had obtained in the journey and used these fortuitous opportunities to strengthen themselves.

Shen Tian took the Dragon Blood Grass out of his ring and started preparing a medicinal bath.

The Dragon God’s contract had a faint dragon origin, so some of its power was stored in Shen Tian, just that it was not very prominent.

Dragon Knights were known to have the intelligence of humans and the body of the dragons. That was the main reason why they could accomplish great things in the past.

Since Shen Tian had such power already, he was not going to waste it.

The Dragon Blood Grass was the best option for Shen Tian as the sealed Ao Bing’s power had leaked out and nourished it.

As more Dragon Blood Grass was added to the medicinal bath, the spirit spring became extremely red, just like a real dragon’s blood.

Everyone was shocked. Shen Tian had used at least 100 stalks of Dragon Blood Grass by now.

Normal people would at most use 10 stalks of Dragon Blood Grass in one go, or else there would be severe side effects. However, that was not Shen Tian’s concern at all.

After taking off his top and shorts, Shen Tian submerged himself in the hot bath.

It was really hot!

The water was bubbling from the heat. However, Shen Tian did not feel any pain at all. He felt the temperature was just right.

Soon, Shen Tian absorbed the Dragon Blood Grass’ nutrients. He could feel that his body was getting stronger while his Transcendence realm was increasing. Every inch of his body had evolved.

A dense aura started to form around Shen Tian, and his party could feel a tremendous amount of energy he was exuding.

Although no one knew how firm his foundation was, they believed that their Saint was invincible among the Foundation Establishment cultivators!

As Shen Tian absorbed more Dragon Blood Grass, his body started to change physically and black dragon marks, formed by a special power, started to appear on his skin.

It was not the armor formed by the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique but the ancient offensive body-tempering art, Dragon’s Armor!

Shen Tian had a new way to protect himself now!

At the same time, a group of unwelcome guests was outside the valley…
