"What kind of process?"
The Chaos Dragon sighed softly at Ling Yun's ignorance. "Of course, the process is for you to become the next Chaos Dragon!"
"What?" Ling Yun was shocked to hear that. "Are you kidding me? How can I become the next Chaos Dragon? After all, I'm a human, and I can transform into a dragon just because of my bloodline power, but I'm not a real dragon."
"Tsk." The Chaos Dragon gritted his teeth. "I already know that you are an ordinary human, but I'm not joking that you can be the next me. However, for you to become one, you have to find all parts of me."
Ling Yun then asked him. "How many parts of you are there?"
"Hmm?" The Chaos Dragon rubbed his chin as he thought. "Currently, my bloodline is already within your body, and my soul will also merge with yours soon, which means there are still five parts of me out there."
"What are the five parts?"
"My Bone Marrow, Dragon Bones, Dragon Eyes, Dragon Core, and most importantly Dragon Heart."
Ling Yun's jaw dropped as soon as he heard that. Since he had often read novels about cultivators and the like in the past, he certainly knew about those five parts, but he wasn't sure that he could find them. After all, his bloodline was given to him by Ling Xi, and the Chaos Dragon's soul was sealed within it.
Seeing his reaction, the Chaos Dragon patted Ling Yun on the shoulder. "You don't need to think about the five for now. After our souls merge, all my knowledge will gradually become yours, for your mind and soul won't be able to absorb everything at once. If you go to higher realms in the future and one of them is near you, your soul must be able to sense it. However, there is one part that you might find difficult to get, especially since it is in someone's hands."
"Oh?" That surprised Ling Yun. "How could that person have one part of you?"
"Because that person killed me." The Chaos Dragon replied with a bitter smile.
Ling Yun fell silent after hearing that, and his eyes kept staring at the Chaos Dragon, for he naturally remembered the person's identity. "Have you lost your mind? How could I possibly face the Time Lord for that thing? Moreover, what part of you is in her hands?"
"My Dragon Heart is in the hands of the Time Lord now, or else I will not die in her hands." The Chaos Dragon replied as he rubbed his head and smiled awkwardly.
"So the Time Lord managed to kill you because she took your heart, huh?" The Chaos Dragon nodded to him, and Ling Yun asked again. "So if I become the next you in the future, that means the heart will also be my weakness?"
"Yes and no." Ling Yun raised his eyebrows, and the Chaos Dragon explained it to him. "Back then, I was only a second to the Time Lord, so no other living beings could kill me, and she couldn't kill me without taking my heart. Even if you have become the next me in the future, many cultivators can kill you without taking your heart because you are still very weak."
"Of course I'm aware of that." Ling Yun replied as he nodded in understanding. "Then where are the other four? Is one of them the thing Cai Hudie protected in the Illusion Forest?"
"No." The Chaos Dragon shook his head at him. "Except for my Dragon Heart, the Time Lord scattered them all over the universe, and I don't know their location. As for the thing in the Illusion Forest, it is my Dragon Armor, but you still have to wait for your cultivation to reach the Emperor Realm to be able to take it."
"Dragon armor, huh?" Ling Yun muttered to himself, but his expression was eager to get it. Unfortunately, he was just about to break through to the Soul Realm, and it would still take him a long time to break through to the Emperor Realm. "Sigh, I will go to the higher realms asap, so my cultivation can increase faster, and I will return to this planet once my cultivation reaches that stage."
"Yes, you do have to leave this planet as soon as possible, or your presence will make all the cultivators on this planet miserable, especially after you break through to the Soul Realm later." Ling Yun himself was already aware of it, and he could feel that the Qi in the earth was steadily depleting because of him, and the Chaos Dragon told him again. "Once you complete your breakthrough, your Qi absorption will become even faster, and you will become a grave threat to this planet. Unfortunately, you possessed three Qi cores, or else you would have reached the Emperor Realm by now with so many women by your side."
Ling Yun sighed heavily and hugged the Chaos Dragon, and he sincerely said to him. "Even though you are no longer with me after this, I could never be like this now if it wasn't for your bloodline, so I will never forget you for the rest of my life."
"Hahaha! You're too sentimental, Brat!" The Chaos Dragon laughed as he hugged Ling Yun back. "Although our time together was not too long, I am grateful that you are my sole successor. If you want to thank me, then you must show all living things that the Chaos Dragon is the mightiest being in this universe!"
"Don't worry, all living beings in this universe will know the Chaos Dragon in the future." Ling Yun then released him and sat cross-legged on the ground.
The Chaos Dragon also did the same and pressed his palm against his chest. "Let's do it, Brat!"
"All right!" Ling Yun immediately closed his eyes, and the process of their soul fusion finally began.

Meanwhile, everyone in Yunlong Zuzhai waited anxiously for Ling Yun, especially after they saw that the dark aura surrounding his body had become increasingly dense and no one could see his figure anymore, not even Ling Xi.
"What happened to Yun'er, Sister Xi? Why is that dark aura so dense?" Yi Mingxia worriedly asked as she clasped her hands very tightly, causing her white skin to turn red.
"You don't need to worry like this," Ling Xi replied as she sighed softly. "Nothing bad happened to Ling Yun, and the process of their soul fusion has truly begun. However, I don't know exactly when the process will be finished, and it might be a few days or a few weeks."
"That long?" Yi Mingxia and the others exclaimed in surprise upon hearing that.
"En." Ling Xi nodded and explained it to them via voice transmission. 'After all, Ling Yun is not an ordinary cultivator, and he must form and strengthen his soul Qi in order to break through. Besides, there is an anomaly in the form of the Chaos Dragon within his body, so the process will not be easy, and it will take time.'
Even though Ling Xi had said that, Yi Mingxia and the others still couldn't calm down before Ling Yun completed his breakthrough.
Feng Bing'er then said to calm them down. "You all don't need to worry, because breaking through to the Soul Realm isn't that difficult, but it does take a long time at times, so I'm sure Ling Yun will be fine."
"That's true; Ling Yun will definitely be fine." Shi Xiaoyin, Feng Bing'er, and Ling Xiaofei agreed with her.
"En." The women simply nodded at them.
Feng Ruxue suddenly asked. "Sister Xi, where did you guys send Old Feng and the others to?"
"Hahaha." Ling Xi laughed before telling them. "Zhiyi sent them to the Illusion Forest, so Tang Ling wouldn't be able to find them. However, Xuanyuan Hongtian has become an idiot now, and I can't fix his mind."
Feng Ruxue and the four ancestors couldn't help but sigh after hearing Ling Xi's last words, and they deeply regretted Xuanyuan Hongtian's situation.
"In that case, I will contact Xue'er now." Feng Ruxue directly informed Xuanyuan Xue'er about Xuanyuan Hongtian, which made her extremely shocked and furious. However, she immediately warned her not to look for Tang Lin, especially since no one could stand against him now except for Ling Xi.
Even though she was furious, Xuanyuan Xue'er still listened to Feng Ruxue's words, and she immediately went to fetch her ancestor.

"Hey, Michael, Are we going to be waiting here?" Raphael asked him.
Gabriel also said to him. "If we all stay here too long, there will be a void of command in our realm, and they will definitely be confused by it."
"En, you guys are right." Michael then said to them. "In that case, all of you can return to our realm first, and I will inform you once Ling Yun has finished breaking through, so you can come back here later."
"I agree with that." Uriel replied as he nodded, and they agreed with him.
However, Jophiel decided to stay, for she wanted to observe Ling Yun and his women, especially since she suspected that he had done something to Glacia.
Michael couldn't help but sigh at Jophiel's decision, but he didn't force her to return either, and he warned her to keep her bearings while in Yunlong Zuzhai.
Since they had decided, Tang Zhiyi sent the other five Archangels out of their residence.
