Kairo sat quietly in the river, the cold water flowing gently around his body.
The sound of the river was calm and peaceful, but his mind was full of thoughts.
He looked at his reflection in the water and spoke softly to himself,
I have one of the rarest bodies in the world…
a body that appears once in millions of years… the black Dragon Body.
He slowly clenched his fist underwater.
But what's the use of this body?
he continued in a low voice.
It only helps me recover faster and gives me more physical strength.
It doesn't give me cultivation talent…
it doesn't give me Qi…
it doesn't give me power.
His eyes darkened slightly.
If I had cultivation talent along with the black Dragon Body…
I could have become the greatest cultivator in the world.
He looked up at the sky, his expression filled with frustration and sadness.
But I only have the body…
and no cultivation.
In this world, not everyone was born equal.
Some people were born with special physiques known as Dragon Bodies.
These bodies determined a person's talent, strength, recovery, and cultivation potential.
The Dragon Bodies were divided into ranks.
The lowest rank was the Green Dragon Body — very common and considered the weakest.
Above it was the Blue Dragon Body, then Orange, Gray, and Yellow Dragon Body.
These were considered ordinary bodies.
Most cultivators in the world belonged to these categories.
They were not weak, but they were not special either.
Then came the rare ones.
The Purple Dragon Body and the Red Dragon Body.
These were extremely rare physiques that appeared once in thousands of years.
Anyone born with these bodies was called a genius. Their cultivation speed was fast, their Qi was strong, and their future was almost guaranteed to be glorious.
Above them was the legendary White Dragon Body.
A body so rare that it appeared once in hundreds of thousands of years.
Legends said that hundreds of thousands of years ago, a cultivator with the White Dragon Body was born.
He became one of the most famous cultivators in history, and his name was still recorded in ancient books.
But even the White Dragon Body was not the rarest.
There was something even beyond that.
Something that most people believed was only a myth.
The Black Dragon Body.
A physique that appeared once in millions of years.
It was said that a very long time ago, a person was born with the Black Dragon Body… and that person brought destruction wherever he went.
His power was so terrifying that no one could stop him.
Entire sects were destroyed.
Kingdoms fell.
The world itself trembled because of him.
In the end, many peak cultivators joined hands to kill him.
But even then… it was said that killing him was almost impossible.
