Eternal Swordsman - 2
Chapter 52 - Soul Will Live Forever, Even If Body Doesn't - ...

The God's thump had a body that was thousands of miles long and its height could not be measured. So when Jia Lin saw the huge dragon that had a head as big as a small dimension and wings that could cover the world, it turned into a small middle-aged man who was only a head taller than him, he was a very powerful man, he was very surprised.

Not only that but his body was carved with a majestic Dao mark and the laws of this world seemed to want to submit to this man, and let him use it at his discretion. This was the absolute dominance of power, a power that could move the heavens.

What was most surprising of all was that even though this middle-aged man was filled with green scales, he was extremely handsome. He was even more handsome than some Heavenly princes or princesses who were blessed by the heavens with good looks.

The dragon man had an aura of profound wisdom on him and even Jia Lin could not see it. In his eyes, time seemed to have no meaning at all. The middle-aged man turned around and started walking in the distance, without turning around, the world around him and Jia Lin started to change.

"Young man, follow this God, Dao Senra," said the middle-aged man in a calm and composed voice.

Once again, Jia Lin saw how weak and small he really was. When he was in Eternity time, he thought that he had seen everything and that his knowledge of the world was on the same level as the sages of the past. And as he returned to the Mortal world and found the Martial Path, he thought that his talent was a god, but now, he actually saw how weak and frail he really was.

When Apollo tells him that he must try and absorb the dragon blood essence in hopes of saving his life, Jia Lin knew that she had no hope of doing so and her chances of survival were so slim that it was ignored but she still tried.

After all, he was already dying, so what else could be lost? Jia Lin in spirit form had black skin and dark wings like Demonic Jia. Their appearances were exactly the same, but the only difference was, Jia Lin had no control at all!

"A...Where are we going senior?" Jia Lin hesitated before asking.

"To my memory" Dao Senra replied, still not turning around.

Jia Lin sighed, he knew that this dragon had long since died and this was only a small part of his mental wish that he raised for anyone who could inherit his legacy. Cultivators and Magicians lived to fight against the will of heaven and to search for the great Dao of the universe, but even so, they still could not live forever!

Jia Lin knew this fact very well but still, having lived for millions of years, how shocking was it? The life of a True God, whether it was a savage beast or not, was truly terrifying. Jia Lin started walking, her legs unhurried as she followed behind Dao Senra.

The scenery around him began to change, from the ground, growing tall trees that stood like mountains and mountains that seemed to be able to support the sky. The land was vast and seemed to be endless, let alone the sky, there were no humans, only the land filled with dragons.

Jia Lin's eyes widened, his mouth gaping. He had never seen so many dragons in one place before, one should know that a dragon was a ferocious beast that could cultivate all the way to the fake God realm with little or no effort. The only difficult part was becoming a True God Beast, but even so, many still broke through to the God realm and became kings in many worlds.

Some remain in their original form while others transform into what appears to be a human. Some of these god beasts that took on human form interbred with other humans and were thus a reaction of mixed lineages. These bloodline descendants did not need to look for other beasts and try to absorb their blood essence because, from birth, they were already blessed with the God beast bloodline within them.

The advantage of having a God beast bloodline was the world other than just having an ordinary beast bloodline. From birth, a God beast would be born with a huge Dao mark that curved into their bones and flesh, over time, this mark would strengthen them as they grew up, growing up, and even if they did not cultivate, they would still be surprisingly strong at the end of the day.

Not only that, the dragon had regeneration abilities sent by an unbeatable God. The vitality of their blood was endless and the flames of their lives were something that was considered difficult to extinguish. God beasts also live far longer than humans or demons so the reason why some humans refer to dragons and the like as god beasts even if they are not in the Defeating God Realm!

This was also one of the main reasons why many cultivators and mages wanted to have the opportunity to absorb the blood essence of beasts to gain their bloodline abilities. Shi Qin Cell of the Wou Dan Sect in the Saran Empire had a lower dragon bloodline in his body but even so, because of this, his natural talent was staggering.

Jia Lin saw different types of dragons with different types of Bloodline abilities mixed within them, in his two lives, he had never seen a true dragon God Beats before, but knew he saw dozens.

"This is my home, Amity. This was the world of dragons and many other saint beasts, but there was no more in this universe" Dao Senra sighed as he looked at the world he had once known.

"That's no more" Jia Lin stopped. He did not know what to think or how to feel or what words he should say or ask.

To have a world filled with God's ferocious beasts was something that made many powers die to leave, but how could such a place not exist anymore? Jia Lin had a lot of questions she wanted to ask but something told her that she would find out soon.

"Look over there" Dao Senra pointed at a small dragon that had small wings on its back. Of all the dragons that exist, its wings are the smallest of all!

"Who's wings are so small" Jia Lin frowned his burrow

"That was me when I was young. In my family, to be exact, as a whole, the great world of Amitiya, my wings are the smallest that have ever appeared on a dragon in history" Dao Senra said with a smile to himself.

"Throughout history" Jia Lin frowned but said nothing.

"I was ridiculed, I was not given guidance by my parents and I was abandoned by my family. They thought that I would die or that I would turn out to be no good in the future, so why waste their time on me. I am weak, I have no friends, other dragons will avoid trash like me"

Dao Senra started walking once again, the world scene changed just like he did. Now, they were standing on a huge mountain with lightning striking it once in a while. Dark skies and rain were falling ceaselessly on this mountain, a small winged dragon was seen holding back a lightning strike without moving a muscle.

"Isn't that painful" Jia Lin asked.

"It's very painful. I was also brought to the brink of death on several occasions, but with all that, I never stopped" Dao Senra smiled as he turned to Jia Lin, as if he was hinting at something.

Jia Lin frowned because she knew what Dao Senra hinted but she did not say anything. Lightning fell from the sky and grabbed the little dragon and although it was a dragon born from the element of Lightning, the amount of lightning it could pick up was limited. After all, it was too young to face the lightning from the high heavens but even so, the little dragon standing there took everything that came even as blood leaked from its mouth and body.

"But why" Jia Lin turned to Dao Senra. What was the reason for all this, why did the little dragon do all this?

"Pretty simple. This was to dampen his heart, mind, and soul" Dao Senra continued to smile. His eyes shone with memories from his past as he continued.

“If one's desires and heart are not bent, even if the end of the world is near, they will still strive against what will cause the end times. They would never stop trying even if they knew that their strength would run out, the hearts of those who seek the great Dao will never die and their souls will live forever, even if the body does" Dao Senra stepped from the mountain and towards the vast ocean.
