Chapter 2248
The First Heir
The woman nodded, took two steps forward, and said, âThis is a space inside the Dragon Heart, and
you can only get here with the jade gold phoenix. Phil, Iâve been waiting for you. I know you have many
questions for me, but time is running out. This image can only last for a while, so donât ask anything
and just listen to me.â
The woman continued, âThe Black Dragon Heart is the devil stone that your father brought back from
the other shore. The energy it contains exceeds the civilization standard of this world. Your father
brought a total of three Dragon Hearts back then, two White Dragon Hearts and one Black Dragon
Heart, which is the one youâre seeing now. Your fatherâs white Dragon Heart was damaged in order to
stop the conspiracy of those people, while the other White Dragon Heart went missing during that
battle. Only this Black Dragon Heart remains. However, both your father and I know that the energy
and rules contained in this Black Dragon Heart are beyond the tolerance level of ordinary people. Even
your father may not be a perfect fit, nor can he wield total control over it. So, I tried my best to seal this
Black Dragon Heart and change its internal cosmic rules. Except for you, no one else in this world can
get close to it. The XD factor in your body is a 100% perfect fit for it.â
Philip was taken aback and could not fully comprehend his motherâs words. He asked, âMom, are you
saying that this Black Dragon Heart was prepared for me? A-Am I just a vessel?â
With tears in her eyes, Charlotte Larson said with great reluctance and helplessness, âPhil, donât blame
me or your father. We have no other choice either. I left this Black Dragon Heart for you. You have to
bear greater responsibility and hardships than others because youâre my son, and youâre the key
component to the God Creation Project. Only you can lead the Clarke family and the civilization here to
the other shore. Only you can be the commander and protect everything here.â
âMe..?â
Philip was puzzled, and there was more doubt in his eyes.
Charlotte nodded and said, âPhil, beware of the Dragon Pavilion Master and the Nonagon Consul.
Theyâre the planners of the previous generationâs God Creation Project.â
After saying this, Charlotteâs figure slowly turned into a cloud of light.
Philip chased after her and reached out to grab the light while yelling, âMom, you havenât told me
clearly what the God Creation Project is. Why me?â
Charlotteâs image dissipated, and at the last moment, she said with a gentle smile, âPhil, one day, we
shall meet again. When that time comes, I hope youâll have surpassed your father.â
After saying this, Charlotteâs light image completely disappeared.
Then, this space also shattered.
Whoosh!
Abruptly, Philip woke up. He opened his eyes and saw that he was still in the Clarke familyâs ancestral
hall. The Black Dragon Heart inside that iron box still glowed with a red and black light.
Philip looked down and saw a red mark on his palm. It was a blood-red geometric pattern that
resembled an eye. Philip looked at his hand and slowly raised it to touch the Black Dragon Heart.
He touched it with his palm. At that moment, Philip felt a surge of powerful vitality pouring into his body!
Suddenly, the world lost all color and the wind raged. Huge waves surged in the sea. Even dark
billowing clouds gathered in the sky. Thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed!
Swoosh!
Two figures fell from the sky and stood in the ancestral hall.
Roger and Fitzgerald stared closely at Philip, who was touching the Black Dragon Heart with his hand.
They saw the red and black light in that Black Dragon Heart constantly pouring into Philipâs body.
âSo itâs really him!â
Fitzgeraldâs eyes widened as he raised his hand to slash at Philip with the longsword in his hand.
Roger frowned, and a majestic pressure surged from his body. He roared, âWhoever dares to touch my
son shall die!â
