Chapter 986 The Golden Dragon Pearl, Audacious Beyond Expectations

Ye Kang's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected to actually be able to knock something out. He laughed and said, "I can't accept this."

As he spoke, he grabbed the object without hesitation; it was a golden bead.

"This is?"

Seeing the doubt in Ye Kang's eyes, the alliance leader curled his lips and said with a smug look, "This is a dragon pearl, and it comes from a golden dragon."

"what!"

Ye Kang was stunned for a moment, and the way he looked at the alliance leader changed.

This guy seems unassuming, but I never expected him to be playing such a big game.

Dragon Balls are the inner cores unique to the dragon race. Half of the dragon's cultivation and supernatural powers are contained within the Dragon Balls. Furthermore, Dragon Balls have many effects, making them extremely valuable materials for alchemy and weapon crafting. They are so rare that they are in high demand and have no shortage of buyers.

Most importantly, this is an inner core from the Golden Dragon Clan.

Thanks to Ye Meijue's explanation, Ye Kang also gained a lot of knowledge about the dragons in the Nine Provinces Sea.

The five dragon palaces are divided into five categories based on their power. Among them, Yao Xin, whom Ye Kang met last time, came from the Silver Dragon Palace and is the weakest of the five dragon palaces.

The Golden Dragon Palace is undoubtedly the strongest, and the talent of the Golden Dragon Clan far surpasses that of the Silver Dragon Clan. Among them, the strongest individuals have a chance to be born with five claws and become true five-clawed golden dragons.

It is evident that obtaining this Dragon Ball is extremely difficult; one must not only slay a dragon but also endure the wrath of the entire Golden Dragon Palace.

Courage and ability are both indispensable.

It seems this alliance leader really has something to offer; as expected of a peak demon saint, he certainly has the confidence to back it up.

Ye Kang carefully examined the dragon pearl in his hand, and could feel an extremely strong dragon blood aura from it, as if there was a dragon soul roaring and howling within it.

He recalled the dragon ball he had obtained in the Nine Nether Palace. It was a counterfeit, created by the nine small snakes of the Nine Nether Palace by collecting and mixing the bloodlines of dragons. Compared to the real dragon ball, its quality was worlds apart.

Ye Kang gave the Dragon Ball to the Carp God to absorb, and the Carp God also gained considerable benefits.

If that's the case, can the carp god also absorb the real dragon ball?

After all, the Koi God's race is a dragon-shaped koi, which, broadly speaking, also belongs to a mutated dragon species.

Thinking of this, Ye Kang immediately laughed and said, "As expected of the Alliance Leader, this is a bit too hot to handle. Are you sure you're comfortable giving it to me like this?"

The Demon God Alliance Leader said indifferently, "Once I become the Demon Emperor, I will have as many Dragon Pearls as I want. Moreover, I believe that Tun Chen is not a foolish demon. If you hand this over to the Dragon Clan, I'm afraid I won't be the first one to die."

That's absolutely right. Dragons don't reason with you. Anyone who dares to use this to ask for a reward will surely meet a miserable end.

The Demon God Alliance Leader continued, "The value of the Dragon Pearl to our demon race goes without saying, but I advise you not to try to refine it now. Otherwise, with the aura of the dragon race surrounding you, no one can save you. Wait until I become the Demon Emperor before you refine it, and then no one will dare to cause you any trouble."

"Thank you for the reminder, Alliance Leader. In that case, I am completely convinced of your benevolence and righteousness. I will return to Tinglang Island now and will do my utmost to assist you in two days!"

Ye Kang spoke with tears of gratitude, and the alliance leader waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

After Ye Kang left, the alliance leader revealed a meaningful smile.

"Fool, do you really think this is for you? It's just being stored here for two days. Once I become the Demon Emperor, the first thing I'll do is devour you, you audacious idiot."

The alliance leader's face was fierce, clearly displeased with Ye Kang's questioning and already mentally sentencing him to death.

And what about Ye Kang?

He rushed back to Tinglang Island, and upon returning to his dojo, he immediately entered the Ink Jade Realm, saying disdainfully, "Naive beast, you think I won't refine it just because you tell me not to? You still want to be the Demon Emperor? Soon you'll find out how many people want to kill you."

Without hesitation, Ye Kang went to the Carp God and handed over the Dragon Ball.

"Fellow Daoist Carp God, can you refine this item?"

The carp god was stunned for a moment, then its eyes widened and saliva dripped out.

"The carp god says it smells delicious!"

Ye Kang thought for a moment and said, "It seems you do need it, but I can't give it to you now. Please wait a moment."

He activated his primordial spirit and probed into the dragon pearl. Sure enough, there was a natural barrier inside the dragon pearl, and within the barrier, a golden dragon shadow was swimming.

Clearly, the dragon soul has not yet perished, and the dragon pearl's true form's cultivation level should be around the early stage of the Returning to Truth realm, which is not considered strong.

However, the Carp Goddess is weaker. If she were to refine it directly, the dragon soul inside would likely seize the opportunity and turn the tables.

Ye Kang wouldn't give him that chance. He immediately activated his primordial spirit and directly blasted the dragon soul away.

With a mournful cry, the dragon soul was utterly annihilated, and the luster of the dragon pearl faded considerably.

Although its supernatural power has diminished considerably, it's just right for the Koi God.

Ye Kang then smiled and said, "Take it. Go into seclusion and do your best, don't disappoint me."

"The Carp God says thank you, Ye Kang!"
