Hong Long looked at Lin Fan with a confused look, "What do you mean by that?"
Then those dragon eyes narrowed like he had suddenly thought of something and revealed a sharp look, "Let me warn you kid, before you even speak, think carefully about your next words. Don't let greed take you over."
Lin Fan didn't mind at all as he said, "Elder, you're thinking too much. I just want to ask you if you want to come with us, I should have a way to bring you out of here and find someone to refine a body for you."
At this, Hong Long turned over to Angela, "Little girl, can you guarantee his words?"
Angela looked at Lin Fan for a bit like she was trying to confirm his intentions, but after being silent for a bit, she still gave a slow nod, "He's someone with a master that can't be measured, this must be his master's will."
Hong Long looked confused, "What do you mean by his master's will? Who is his master?"
Angela gave a shrug, "I don't know who his master is, but I'm certain it's someone from the God Realm."
At this, Hong Long's eyes opened wide in shock, "God Realm, are you sure? Are we talking about the same legendary God Realm?"
Angela nodded, "The way he uses laws, it's not the fragmented laws that we're used to. It's definitely the complete laws they have in the God Realm…"
When he heard this, there was a strong look of desire that was alight in Hong Long's eyes. God Realm, it was something they had all dreamed of. Ever since that event a million years ago, it was like the God Realm had suddenly closed and no one had ever been able to reach it since. This was the first time any of them had contact with the God Realm in a long time…
It was only then that Hong Long turned back to Lin Fan and asked, "How would you bring me out?"
Lin Fan walked over to the Soul Crystal and placed a hand on it, as he asked the system in his mind, "System, can I bring this Soul Crystal into the storage?"
"Host, you currently do not have enough authorization to bring this Soul Crystal with you."
Lin Fan said, "Then how much authorization do I need?"
"Host, you do not have enough authorization to ask this question."
Lin Fan had black lines appear on his face as he thought, "What kind of logic is this?"
"Host, there's no need to be rude. First warning!"
Lin Fan quickly calmed himself down and he asked the system again, "Then is there a way to bring Hong Long back with us?"
"Calculating…"
"Host, the system had come up with two feasible methods based on the resources currently available to the host."
Lin Fan was filled with curiosity at this, there actually was a way.
He had just been hoping that he would be able to bring this Dragon Clan expert with him since that would mean being able to create a relationship with the Dragon Clan.
Lin Fan already had Angela and Momonga, which provided access to their top tier cultivation realms. If he were to bring in another supreme expert like Hong Long, maybe he would have access to another top tier cultivation realm. This Hong Long even made Angela cautious which meant that their Dragon Clan must be equal to the Spirit Clan which Angela led. Since the World of Elements was a top tier cultivation realm, it should mean that the Dragon Clan's world was also a top tier cultivation realm!
"Host, the first method is to buy a Low Tier Avatar from the shop and draw this shattered soul into it, creating a Legendary Realm puppet. But the downside to this is that it will shatter the will of the shattered soul and create an obedient puppet that will never advance."
"Isn't this no different from killing him and refining him into a puppet!" Lin Fan couldn't help saying.
"Host, there's no need to be rude. Second warning!"
"Host, the second method is to take a scale from pet "Xiao Feng" and draw the shattered soul into the scale, allowing it to store the shattered soul like the Soul Crystal."
"Wait, why would that work?" Lin Fan was confused.
"Host, pet "Xiao Feng" has the true dragon bloodline, which is the progenitor of all dragons. This gives every part of pet "Xiao Feng's" body a special attribute, such as being able to contain shattered souls of the Dragon Clan."
Lin Fan didn't really understand, but still he called out Xiao Feng.
The moment Xiao Feng appeared, Hong Long's eyes were filled with shock.
When Xiao Feng had been called out on the fifth floor, Hong Long hadn't been able to sense its bloodline because of the distance, but now that Xiao Feng was in front of it, it was shocked by what it sensed.
Hong Long said in a trembling voice, "K-Kid, wh-where did you f-find this pet?"
Lin Fan was surprised to hear this, but he honestly said, "This was a pet my master gave me." Of course that technically wasn't wrong since it was given to him by the system and the system was currently his "master".
Hong Long was even more shocked by this as he turned back to Angela and remembered what she said. God Realm Expert, this kid's master had to be a God Realm Expert!
This master had even found the long lost progenitor bloodline!
Just who was he?!
Angela saw how shocked Hong Long was and she couldn't help thinking of when she had first met Lin Fan.
Thinking back now, she remembered how shocked she had been to see the power of laws coming from Lin Fan. She couldn't help considering Hong Long a comrade.
Of course, Momonga had also gone through the same experience, but she would never consider him a comrade since he was still nothing more than a dirty undead in her eyes…
As for how Momonga saw her, he really wanted to see how this dense little girl would deal with her emotions…
After a while, Hong Long finally calmed down and said, "Kid, I'm fine with leaving this place, but you have to promise me that you'll let me bring this little dragon back to our Dragon Clan. I'm telling you now, this little dragon will be the hope for our entire Dragon Race, that's how insistent I am on this."
Lin Fan was confused by this, but he was fine with this since he wanted to go to the Dragon Clan's world anyway, "Alright, that's fine. I wanted to go to the Dragon Clan's world anyway."
At this, Hong Long gave an internal sigh of relief. If he could bring this progenitor bloodline back, he would become the greatest hero of the Dragon Clan.
Hong Long then said, "Alright, I have an idea of what you're planning on doing, but before you do it, let's wait for a bit."
Lin Fan asked in a puzzled voice, "Why do we need to wait?"
Hong Long explained, "If you take my shattered soul out of the Soul Crystal, it also releases the Dragon Might that's crashing down on the tower. So we should at least wait until the end of the trial before doing this. Of course, we can't wait until the very end, since you'll be teleported away right at the end, so we'll do it a minute before the trial ends."
Lin Fan picked up on the words at the very end, "Teleported away? What do you mean by that? Also, what's the next part of the trial?"
Hong Long just shook his head, "I can't tell you, but I can tell that you should be able to easily pass through the final trial and obtain Xiao Jun's inheritance."
Lin Fan could tell from his firm tone that Hong Long wouldn't say anything, so Lin Fan didn't push it. Instead he asked about something else, "Then do you know about the Dragon Vein?"
Hong Long was surprised to hear this, "I don't know how you found out about the Dragon Vein, but it should be the one made from my bones. It's not here with me, but it should be with Xiao Jun's final inheritance. As long as you finish the next trial, you should be able to get it."
Once he heard this, Lin Fan now knew how to finish his mission.
While he didn't want Xie Jun's inheritance, he had no choice in this matter since he had to get the Dragon Vein.
Since he was doing this, he wouldn't let anyone stand in his way. He would obtain the inheritance.
…
And so time passed and ten hours went by, it finally came to the end of the second trial.
Right before it did end, Lin Fan took a scale from Xiao Feng and drew Hong Long's soul in.
All this took thirty seconds, which meant that for the final thirty seconds, the pressure in the tower had disappeared...
