Chapter 318 Reversal! A Deal Reached with the Dragon King, the Sea God's True Colors Revealed

Passing through the production line piled with wreckage, ahead lay a vast, empty hall of bones, so empty you could hear your own heartbeat echoing.

There were no guards, no traps.

There is only one high platform.

The high platform was not made of gold, but rather constructed from countless dragon bones of varying sizes and ages. The stark white bones, interlocking like jagged teeth, formed a menacing throne.

On the throne, a dragon is locked up.

A... an old, almost dried-out blue dragon.

Its size was far greater than the corpses outside the hall; even curled up, it resembled a small mountain. But its condition was extremely pitiful.

Its entire body was stripped of its scales, revealing the dark red flesh beneath. Dozens of black iron hooks, thicker than a human waist, pierced its collarbone, spine, and limbs, pinning it firmly to the throne.

At its heart, a huge blood hole was gushing out dark golden dragon blood, which flowed down the groove beneath the throne and into the still-functioning blood pool.

It is the main power source for this factory...

"roar……"

Seemingly sensing the presence of a stranger, the old dragon laboriously raised its head. Its eyelids drooped, and its cloudy dragon eyes held no glimmer of life, only a deathly, ashen look.

It looked at Lu Sheng, its lips moving, and the sound it made was hoarse, like two rusty pieces of iron rubbing together.

"A new... executioner?"

"Let's get started... I'm... completely drained..."

It seems to regard Lu Sheng as a new batch of butchers sent by the "Sea God".

Li Xiaoyao's body trembled violently. He looked at the old dragon, at its familiar blue skin and aged face, and let out a whimper that was difficult to understand.

"The Dragon King of the East Sea... Ao Guang..."

Dao Yi uttered the name in a low voice, his face full of disbelief.

Is this the overlord who once ruled the four seas and stood on equal footing with the Kunlun Emperor? How could he have fallen to such a state?

"Poseidon..." Lu Sheng ignored the commotion behind him, staring at the old dragon, his cross-shaped pupils gleaming with gray light. "You made a deal with it?"

The old dragon's cloudy eyes flickered, seemingly surprised that Lu Shengneng could call out the name "Sea God" so readily.

It gave a bitter laugh, which triggered the iron hooks on its body, resulting in a muffled thud as flesh was torn apart.

"A deal? Hah... That's not a deal, that's inviting a wolf into the house."

"Ten thousand years ago, the abyss rift first appeared, and the bloodline of my dragon race gradually withered away, with eight or nine out of ten newborns dying from deformities." The old dragon's voice was filled with endless regret. "Just when the dragon race was about to be wiped out, 'it' appeared."

"It calls itself the 'Sea God,' claiming it can purify my race's bloodline and restore the dragon race to its former glory. The price is... the dragon race will serve it as its master for eternity."

"I agree."

"I handed over control of the Dragon Palace to it and moved my people here to receive its 'blessing'."

As Old Long finished speaking, two lines of bloody tears streamed down his deathly gray eyes.

"But that wasn't a blessing, it was a curse! It was transformation! My people, my children, were sent into those jars one by one, turned into soulless monsters that only knew how to kill!"

"And I..." It glanced at the tube inserted into its heart, "became the nourishment for their birth."

"What a joke, a colossal joke! To continue my bloodline, I personally... pushed the entire dragon race into the slaughterhouse!"

A mournful roar echoed through the hall.

Li Xiaoyao could no longer hold back his tears and knelt down on the ground.

Dao Yi was also deeply moved, his fingers trembling slightly as he held the whisk, clearly shocked by this ancient tragedy.

Only Lu Sheng.

His face was expressionless.

Under the Dragon King's grief-stricken gaze, he slowly walked up to the high platform.

He didn't look at the menacing iron hooks, nor at the flowing dragon blood.

He reached out a hand and touched the old dragon's exposed, still slightly twitching nape, even tapping it with his knuckles.

"Hmm."

Lu Sheng let out a murmur, similar to a chef inspecting goods.

"This piece of tenderloin is quite firm."

"Unfortunately, its qi and blood are severely depleted, and it has lost more than 90% of its spirit. If you steam it now, it will probably taste very dry."

The entire room fell silent.

Even the old dragon's mournful cry was stuck in its throat.

Its murky dragon eyes suddenly widened, staring intently at the human before it.

Shock, anger, absurdity...

It poured out all its emotions, yet still couldn't comprehend what was happening before its eyes.

"Lu Sheng!" Dao Yi finally couldn't help but speak, his voice tinged with urgency, "It..."

"What's wrong with it?" Lu Yun turned her head and looked calmly at Dao Yi. "Is it pitiful? Is it tragic? So what? Do you want me to put it down, kneel on the ground, kowtow to it, and praise its noble character of sacrificing itself for its clan?"

Lu Sheng chuckled and pointed to the black iron hooks on the Dragon King's body that had grown into his flesh.

"Look closely, that's the Abyss Contract. If I dare to move, that so-called 'Sea God' will sense it immediately."

"Save it? That's like sounding an alarm, telling the butcher in the kitchen that a piece of meat is trying to escape."

"I'm not that stupid."

Lu Sheng withdrew his hand and looked back at the Dragon King, who was completely dumbfounded.

"You've finished telling your story. It was very touching."

"But to me, your only value right now is 'recycling'."

He held up two fingers.

I'm giving you two choices.

"First, you will remain locked here for the rest of your life as a blood bag, until the last drop of blood is drained, and you become a living corpse in one of those jars outside."

"Two..." In Lu Sheng's double-pointed pupils, the gray light was as sharp as a blade, "I will help you break free."

"I'll kill you, so you die like a warrior, not meat on a chopping board."

The Dragon King's enormous body trembled violently.

relief?

This word hasn't been heard for thousands of years.

"In return," Lu Sheng's voice was devoid of any emotion, "you shall give me your Dragon Ball that is not yet completely corrupted, as well as everything about that 'Sea God'."

"Especially... its weaknesses."

Inside the main hall, only the Dragon King's heavy breathing could be heard.

It looked at Lu Sheng, at those eyes that held no pity, only pure transactional intent.

It suddenly laughed.

He laughed with unbridled joy, so much so that the entire bone throne trembled.

"Hahaha... Great! What a brilliant way to reuse waste!"

"I, Ao Guang, have roamed the four seas for tens of thousands of years, considering myself the overlord, but in the end, I have to be given my life by a human!"

A faint, yet extremely frenzied flame rekindled in its murky dragon eyes.

"I promise you!"

The Dragon King roared.

"If you can slaughter all those bastards outside, neither dragon nor demon, and cleanse my dragon race of its filth, then my dragon balls, my heritage, everything I know... are all yours!"

"make a deal."

Lu Sheng nodded decisively.

He slowly raised his hand, and the phantom of the [Dragon Devouring Spear] began to condense in his palm.

Just then, the Dragon King seemed to remember something, and a look of extreme fear flashed in his eyes.

"Watch out... that 'Sea God'..."

Its voice was extremely low, filled with apprehension.

"It...it's not a living thing..."

"That's... a living heart from outer space!"
