Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

This is definitely a Dao Fruit!

Staring at the character for "Emperor" in the void, the Dragon Cat was babbling incoherently.

Ye Wushuang was utterly bewildered. He had rarely seen the Dragon Cat so agitated. ’It’s just the character for "Emperor,"’ he thought. ’Is it really that big of a deal?’

"Dead Cat, what’s a Dao Fruit inheritance?"

Ye Wushuang turned to ask the Dragon Cat, but to his surprise, the creature had already shot toward the brilliant golden ball of light in the void.

BZZZT!

Suddenly, as if threatened, the ball of light emanated a supreme Imperial Might, blasting the Dragon Cat back.

The Dragon Cat refused to give up and charged a few more times, but each attempt ended in failure.

It trudged back to Ye Wushuang, looking disheveled and dejected. "Kid, this is your lucky chance. Lord Cat won’t take it from you, but you have to compensate me."

"If you could take it, you would have already. It’s fine. When there’s a lucky chance, we should share it, right?"

Ye Wushuang said lightly, smirking to himself. ’This creature is so shameless. It clearly can’t get it, yet it has to make a grand declaration about not taking it.’

Certain that the creature couldn’t obtain the item, Ye Wushuang had no more reservations.

"Kid, you win." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

The Dragon Cat’s sly eyes burned with anger. How could it not understand the meaning behind Ye Wushuang’s words?

When there’s a lucky chance, we should share it.

Previously, Ye Wushuang had shared its treasures, and now he was willing to share his lucky chance with it. That was perfectly fair.

However, it couldn’t even touch the thing, let alone get a share.

So, this wasn’t Ye Wushuang’s fault. It could forget about ever getting back those two-thirds of the treasures.

Since the Dragon Cat couldn’t get it, Ye Wushuang didn’t make a move either. He kept his eyes fixed on it and suddenly asked, "By the way, what was that Dao Fruit inheritance you mentioned earlier?"

"When a Cultivator reaches the Nirvana Realm and passes through their tribulations, they can attest to the Holy Dao and become a Great Saint. A Dao Fruit is the Holy Dao that a Great Saint has attested to."

"This thing contains a Great Saint’s comprehensions and their Holy Dao. For a Cultivator, it’s the most coveted treasure imaginable, especially in the Nirvana Realm, where its benefits are heaven-defying," the Dragon Cat explained.

"A Great Saint’s Holy Dao? You mean Saints actually exist?"

Ye Wushuang was shocked.

"If there were no Saints, where would Dao Fruits come from!" the Dragon Cat snapped, then added, "Go on, give it a try. See if you can take it. If you can’t, don’t force it. This kind of thing depends entirely on two words: lucky chance."

Hearing this, a tidal wave of shock crashed through Ye Wushuang’s mind. He never imagined that the Saints of legend, beings who could traverse heaven and earth, actually existed, and that one of their Dao Fruits was right here.

A Great Saint’s Dao Fruit!

If what the Dragon Cat said was true, then this "Emperor" character was a truly heaven-defying opportunity.

Ye Wushuang’s heart was moved. He strode toward the golden ball of light.

The golden ball of light hovered in mid-air, about a person’s height from the ground, just within Ye Wushuang’s reach.

To prevent what happened before, he reached out gently, touching the ball of light.

The golden ball of light trembled slightly, just as it had before, and emanated a wave of Imperial Might.

To Ye Wushuang’s surprise, it didn’t blast him back at all. His five fingers touched the golden orb, and the tips were immediately enveloped by the golden light.

The Dragon Cat was stunned.

Ye Wushuang was completely unharmed?

’Was the kid just faking it before?’

The Dragon Cat muttered to itself, its sly eyes fixed on the scene.

Inside Ye Wushuang’s Divine Court, above the Chaos Dragon Tomb, the character for "Strength," which was wrapped in Ancestral Blood, began to bloom with a bloody light. It released waves of a mysterious aura that enveloped Ye Wushuang’s body.

Ye Wushuang was so focused on the "Emperor" character that he failed to notice the attacks coming from all directions around him subtly distorting, as if being forcefully torn apart.

None of the Imperial Might could get near him; it was all blocked.

Seeing that he was fine, Ye Wushuang reached into the golden ball of light and grabbed the "Emperor" character. Just as he was about to pull his hand back, he found it was like gripping a massive Divine Mountain; it wouldn’t budge an inch.

Ye Wushuang tried several more times, but the result was the same.

KENG!

Suddenly, the Dragon Spirit Bloodline within Ye Wushuang erupted.

A draconic phantom shot out of his body, transforming into a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon that plunged into the golden ball of light. It coiled and weaved around the "Emperor" character.

The "Emperor" character trembled violently before finally quieting down after a moment.

Blinding golden light, sharp as swords, pierced through the golden orb, releasing waves of Emperor’s Qi.

The Dragon Cat watched, stunned for a moment before coming to its senses. It muttered jealously, "Can it be that Heaven and Earth truly favor this kid? How can things be so coincidental?"

At that moment, Ye Wushuang felt the resistance in his hand vanish. It was now as light as grasping a ball of cotton, and he easily pulled the "Emperor" character into his palm.

The stark difference between before and after left Ye Wushuang feeling baffled.

He gazed at the golden ball of light and the "Emperor" character in his palm. He was holding the most important possession of a Great Saint, and it all felt a bit unreal.

WHOOSH!

The golden ball of light transformed into a streak of gold and shot into the center of his forehead.

BOOM!

The golden light then radiated outward, enveloping Ye Wushuang.

"Emperor’s Qi infusion!"

"The kid just got the Emperor Dao Fruit and he’s already receiving an Emperor’s Qi infusion. He’s truly worthy of an Emperor’s bloodline. Lord Cat is dying of jealousy."

The Dragon Cat stared at the golden halo around Ye Wushuang, filled with envy, jealousy, and grinding its teeth in frustration.

Ye Wushuang possessed an Emperor’s bloodline and was born with Emperor’s Qi. It had erupted just now, perfectly matching the Emperor Dao Fruit and thus gaining its acknowledgment.

Here, it was probably the only one who knew all this.

However, what puzzled the Dragon Cat was that this was all too much of a coincidence. It wasn’t strange for a Dao Fruit to be inside the Divine Communication Tower, but why did it have to be an Emperor Dao Fruit?

And for it to match Ye Wushuang so perfectly... the coincidence was almost unbelievable.

"What’s happening?"

Noticing the changes in his body, Ye Wushuang turned and asked the Dragon Cat.

The Dragon Cat pushed aside its doubts and said, "This is an Emperor’s Qi infusion. It can greatly enhance your aura. It’s a benefit granted by the Emperor Dao Fruit."

An Emperor’s Qi infusion?

Ye Wushuang murmured, "So this thing has benefits like this too."

The Dragon Cat said disdainfully, "A Dao Fruit inheritance has numerous benefits. Besides a Great Saint’s lifetime of comprehensions, many also contain Heaven-Defying Cultivation Techniques, Divine Techniques, and other wondrous arts. Different Dao Fruits bring different fortuitous encounters. Take this Emperor Dao Fruit, for example. It was condensed by a Great Saint who cultivated the Emperor Dao. In life, he must have been an Emperor of his own world, and so he left you a wondrous art: the Emperor’s Qi infusion."

"Different Dao Fruits bring different fortuitous encounters?"

Hearing the Dragon Cat’s explanation, Ye Wushuang’s eyes suddenly lit up. He thought of the "Strength" character in his mind. ’Could that also be a Dao Fruit?’

He had to ask the Dragon Cat.

Ye Wushuang thought to himself and asked, "By the way, what kind of Dao Fruit is the ’Strength’ character?"

"Strength?"

The Dragon Cat froze. "What ’Strength’ character?"

"Wait!"

The Dragon Cat snapped to attention, its eyes suddenly locked onto Ye Wushuang as it asked urgently, "Kid, be more specific! What ’Strength’ character?"

Ye Wushuang frowned. "It’s similar to the ’Emperor’ character, but it doesn’t have the same imposing aura."

"The ’Strength’ character... the ’Strength’ character!" The Dragon Cat completely lost its composure. "Kid, do you have any idea what that is? Lord Cat is so jealous of you! Why doesn’t Lord Cat get such amazing opportunities?"

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang only grew more confused.

An instant later, his brow furrowed again. Something had gone wrong in his Divine Court. Before he could even ask the Dragon Cat, he immediately sat down cross-legged on the ground.
