Dragon Emperor at Last, Dao and Dharma Perfected-My Name Is Cloud Heaven Dao!
The dark sea stretched as far as the eye could see, and even when the wind blew, it did not create a ripple.
The heavy, turbulent waters of the Sin Sea resembled a black iron plate. The clouds were black too; the entire world was devoid of light.
Above the boundary of the Sin Sea, ten Solar Yang rotate forward, and a massive hurricane revolves around them, as if the Solar Yang Solar Yang risen and the storm has begun.
As the ten solar terms and the hurricane advanced, the dark clouds retreated continuously, and the coastline finally became clear. The twenty-four Solar Terms Decree lined up in a row, seemingly forming a coastline in the sky.
A golden dragon appeared on the horizon, above which sat a pale gold stone slab. Next came a second dragon, bearing a banner embroidered with the Eastern Emperor Golden Script Inscription.
More dragon boats and giant dragons appeared at the edge of the Sin Sea, the dark clouds were dispersed more quickly, and the seawater rippled. Apart from the sound of the seawater rippling, there was no other noise in the sky.
The massive Dragon Race battle formation was silent yet orderly, seemingly even more oppressive than the dojo in the Sin Sea.
Suddenly, a small, ethereal dragon spirit descended upon the foremost dragon ship. "Great Dragon Emperor, we have cleared one-fifth of the Reverse Dragon Domain." The "Great Dragon King" Nan was currently battling the Reverse Dragon west of the Sin Sea.
The 108 [Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle] carried by the "Great Dragon King" Fu have been delivered to the designated location.
The Great Dragon King Hogg has occupied Thunder Dragon Island in the Sea of Sin. After completing the occupation mission, he is heading to meet up with the Emperor. Once he and the Great Dragon King 'Xuanji' arrive, the thirty-six [Dragon Slaying Platforms] can be returned to their places.
"Furthermore, the preparation phase for the Fu Ming Myriad Dragon Formation is complete."
According to Yin Xiu's detailed report, even though there are now many great dragon lords under the Dragon Emperor, Yin Xiu's position as the number one warrior under the Dragon Emperor has become increasingly secure.
Because he was not only good at fighting, but also skilled in commanding troops and strategizing, and had a thorough understanding of all kinds of Dragon Race artifacts.
"Xiu, what other trump cards does the Purple Dragon God have left?" Zhao Xing, now in human form, stood on the deck gazing ahead.
"Each of the ten kingdoms possesses a national treasure, each with its own unique function. However, we have obtained the treasures of the Sky Sea Kingdom and the Dragon Abyss Kingdom, but we already have the treasures of the other eight kingdoms."
"With eight of the Ten Divine Artifacts already in hand, besides the corrupted Codex and the Transmission Artifact, is there anything else in the Purple Dragon God's possession that we don't know about?"
Yin Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "The Dragon Court Era of the Primordial Era recorded many divine artifacts of the Demon Race, many of which were no less powerful than the divine artifacts of the Dragon Race, and some were even stronger."
"Perhaps it obtained some of the legendary demonic artifacts."
Zhao Xing nodded slightly. The so-called demonic artifacts were actually artifacts forged by the Zuo Shen.
He guessed that the Purple Dragon God might possess many powerful Starry Sky Dao Soldiers (known as peerless treasures in the Profound Yellow World). "He probably doesn't have any World Star Dao Soldiers."
Of the treasures I obtained from Qing Yuzi's inheritance, only the [Star Fortune Strategy] truly qualifies as World Star Dao Soldiers- World Star Dao Soldiers. The Cangwu Summit Leaf is only comparable in value to a Star-Boundary Dao Weapon; it is not a weapon itself.
"Starry Sky Dao Soldiers are equivalent to peerless treasures, while World Star Dao Soldiers Starry Sky Dao Soldiers even more powerful. If he possessed a killing-type Boundary Weapon, he wouldn't have waited so long and resorted to trickery."
Without a doubt, the World Star Dao Soldiers are the epitome of Divine Soldier artifacts in the Profound Yellow World.
Ji Si obtained the World Star Dao Soldiers [Star Fortune Strategy] and was able to participate in the high-level battles between Witch Moon God and Wu Emperor. If she relied solely on herself, Ji Si nine lives wouldn't be enough for her.
A true World Star Dao Soldiers requires the materials of a single Realm Star, or it must utilize the core essence of Realm Star.
Many World Star Dao Soldiers require a kind of [Spell Seal] to seal their power. Otherwise, many World Star Dao Soldiers World Star Dao Soldiers cause devastating damage when entering another Realm Star.
The reason people use weapons is naturally because weapons can harm people. The power of the World Star Dao Soldiers is too great; if proper sealing measures are not taken, even the user himself can easily be injured by the World Star Dao Soldiers.
"However, unleashing the full power of World Star Dao Soldiers is no easy feat. Even those at the Rule Realm can only use Starry Sky Dao Soldiers (peerless treasures), and using World Star Dao Soldiers is still quite difficult."
"I definitely can't utilize the Purple Dragon God; I'd be better off getting a better Starry Sky Dao Soldiers," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"I'll be lenient in my judgment. Even if he possesses top-tier offensive Starry Sky Dao Soldiers, I myself have acquired many Starry Sky Dao Soldiers after conquering the nine kingdoms, such as the [Dragon Slaying Platform], the [Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle], the [Fu Ming Flame Palace], and the [Profound Water Dragon Banner]."
I still have the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine and the Ice Soul Divine Tree as trump cards. If there are any unexpected events, the Cloud-Soaring Vine can still provide a backup. "Fang Yi's Fang Yi, even if it has World Star Dao Soldiers, it doesn't matter."
Zhao Xing was not afraid because he also possessed an offensive World Star Dao Soldiers.
With a flick of his wrist, a slender, purplish-black sword appeared in his hand. The Thunder Law Sword!
This treasure, which was obtained from a blind box in Wu Emperor's treasury, is none other than a World Star Dao Soldiers Weapon!
"When I first discovered this magic sword in the treasure hall that it required spiritual energy to activate, I casually took it back to study it." "I never expected that this magic sword would possess [Spell Seal]!"
"After unlocking the first layer, I discovered that its grade had reached the level of World Star Dao Soldiers." Zhao Xing recalled his initial discovery: since it was Spell Seal, it must be World Star Dao Soldiers.
Because once its first layer of magical seal is broken, it possesses power at the level of a top-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers. Zhao Xing also discovered a second layer of seal, but he was completely unable to break it.
This is why one cannot use World Star Dao Soldiers if their cultivation level is insufficient. "The true core of the Thunder Law Sword is its hilt."
The small hilt of the sword shows no trace of Magic Array, yet it binds lightning power equivalent to that of a planet, compressing it to the extreme.
Zhao Xing channeled spiritual energy into the magic sword, and the slender sword instantly grew larger.
From the outside, it looks like a sword, and you can't see the shape of lightning at all. That's because of the extreme compression and binding. The power of lightning has completely become a fixed form.
"Big big!
The rapier, which was originally only half a meter long, grew larger and began to emit lightning.
Zhao Xing felt very strained when he pushed the slender sword to ten meters in length. Ultimately, he reached his limit at thirty meters.
"Even with all my might, I can only make it grow thirty meters longer and bigger." Zhao Xing's own size has also grown to one hundred meters, which is his limit.
"I used the first level of the secret technique to break the seal, and it still felt incredibly light when I held it."
"But once it's on the ground, no one can pick it up." "Wen won't crush the dragon boat."
As Zhao Xing looked at the Thunder Law Sword, he couldn't help but think of a certain hammer, "In the future, find a master craftsman to modify the method of controlling and sealing the spiritual energy on the first level."
"Anyone who lifts this sword, if approved by it, will possess the power of thunder."
As Zhao Xing cautiously advanced, in the center of the Sin Sea, on a vast island...
The Purple Dragon God was also in deep thought. There were lightning bolt marks on the dragon scales on his forehead, a broken blade, a bead, and a stone slab, all surrounding him.
"The fact that this plan has progressed to this point shows that this Zhao Xing is quite capable."
"He broke through to the Rule Realm in the Dragon Court, and even subdued two divine trees. He then went to the Heaven Abyss and successfully obtained the Divinity Chapter."
"That's all there is to it. Why is Witch Moon God so cautious?" Purple Dragon God didn't take Zhao Xing seriously.
When Zhao Xing first entered the Dragon Court, he was only at the Fate Palace Realm. Even if his soul reached the Rule Realm, it was only at the mid-stage of the Rule Realm.
On paper, they are lagging behind him in every aspect.
The Purple Dragon God was at the peak of the Rule Realm, and theoretically should have been able to completely overwhelm the Dragon Court Ancient Land Dragon Court Ancient Land and sweep through it. However, the situation changed drastically in the last few decades.
A large number of Great Dragon King appeared, and lost Dragon Race artifacts came to light one after another, such as the [Dragon Slaying Platform], the [Profound Water Dragon Banner], and the [Fu Ming Flame Palace], all of which are national treasures.
Furthermore, the Dragon Race under Zhao Xing Xingmo's command has grown too rapidly. At the beginning, the only one among the Great Dragon King who was worth his attention was Yin Xiu.
Gradually, more Dragon Race came into his view, and with the help of the divine artifact, they grew to a point where they could threaten him.
"Did the Witch Moon God make a mistake in his calculations?" The Purple Dragon God reflected on his journey to the Dragon Court Ancient Land, his heart filled with doubt.
"If I had started the decapitation operation as soon as I entered the Dragon Court, I might have been able to capture and kill Zhao Xing. Why did I have to plan until now and choose Qinghai as the location?"
Now that those Great Dragon King are working together, they can cause him trouble, mainly due to the combination of various Magic Array and Dragon Race artifacts. But in the beginning, even against those Great Dragon King, he could easily slaughter them.
I am at the peak of the Rule Realm, possess a top-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers Zuoshen Pearl, and have also obtained one of the Dragon Emperor Codex.
The Witch Moon God even bestowed upon me a "Severance Talisman," and instructed me to follow the plan, retreating to the location within the Sin Sea before attempting to kill him. Under no other circumstances should I make a move; doing so would be futile.
What was his purpose? What other trump cards did he have up his sleeve? "The Purple Dragon God was very confused."
Even if he obtained the World Star Dao Soldiers from Qing Yuzi, he wouldn't be able to unleash its full potential. Even I can't fully utilize the power of the World Star Dao Soldiers.
After much deliberation, the Purple Dragon God finally concluded that the Witch Moon God's arrangement was only suitable for a quick kill; otherwise, Zhao Xing would escape.
"However, he is indeed quite unique." Purple Dragon God recalled his experiences over the years, "At least in terms of understanding the Dragon Race, no one among the Human Race is more capable than him. He manipulated Yin Xiu's conquests from behind the scenes; he is not a prophet, but he surpasses a prophet."
Even I didn't know that the Dragon Court possessed a treasure like the Profound Water Dragon Banner. Not only did he know, he also sought me out.
"He even set up the lost grand formation, the Fu Ming Fanglong Formation. There are thirty-six Dragon Slaying Platform? Yes, from the Primordial Era to Jie, there have been a total of thirty-six Dragon Emperors, so there should be thirty-six platforms."
Initially, he looked down on Zhao Xing when he entered the Dragon Court, but now, decades later, the Purple Dragon God's impression of Zhao Xing has greatly changed. Of course, this doesn't refer to his strength.
"Careful, knowledgeable, intelligent, and patient, although his strength is not as great as mine." At this moment, Purple Dragon God, like Zhao Xing, believed that his strength would absolutely crush his opponent.
However, he absolutely trusted the judgment of the Witch Moon God, which is why he obediently followed the plan and retreated to the Sin Sea. "The key to unifying the Dragon Court is to kill Zhao Xing."
"If I kill him, the ten kingdoms I have now will be mine for the taking."
History is written by the victors, and then he will no longer be the Reverse Dragon, but the true dragon emperor.
"Your Majesty, the enemy has begun its attack on the sea, and the Reverse Dragon Domain is gradually disappearing." A Great Dragon King named "Chen" appeared on Dragon Island and reported to the Purple Dragon God.
The Reverse Dragon Domain is formed by the reinforcement of countless Reverse Dragon within a domain, extending its duration, range, domain, or intensity. Generation after generation of reinforcement by the Reverse Dragon has transformed the entire Sin Sea into an effect akin to a sacred training ground.
Of course, it wasn't a true Daoist temple, and with Zhao Xing now commanding the forces of ten kingdoms to attack, the destruction could be swift. The Great Dragon King estimated that at this rate, the Reverse Dragon Domain of Qinghai would cease to exist in just six months, thus protecting the Reverse Dragon.
The barrier will disappear.
"Simply withdraw to Dragon Island."
"Your Majesty, this will result in the deaths of countless people." "Execute the order!"
The Purple Dragon God's eyes were cold; he didn't take the other Dragon Race seriously. He identified himself as the Purple Dragon God of the Southern Barbarians, not as the Dragon Court. "Yes," Shen could only helplessly obey.
Three months later, in the inner sea of the Sin Sea, near the central area, the Rebellious Great Dragon King roared in the sky.
He was surrounded by more than three hundred dragon kings, all swimming in the sky as if trying to escape, but they could not escape this world no matter what.
The Water Screen in the sky was like an impregnable prison, completely trapping them.
"Your Majesty, Shen is a kiss. He is naturally good at water, and the power of his innate secret technique is comparable to the ultimate Seventh-Turn spell."
"But under the restriction of the Profound Water Dragon Banner, he can hardly escape." Yin Xiu stood beside Zhao Xing, "A hundred Jimeng Dragon Kings controlling the Profound Water Dragon Banner would be enough to kill this traitor, Chi."
The Profound Water Dragon Banner is not a single flag. Its mother flag is held by the Green Leaf Dragon King, while the Hundred-Headed Jimeng Dragon King controls the child flags, which are waved in different directions.
Jimeng was a dragon with a human body, and he was also skilled in water. The waters formed by his waving dragon flag completely surrounded and killed him and his subordinates. The Sea Reverse Dragon could no longer pose a threat, leaving only the Purple Dragon God. "Zhao Xing looked at a Dragon Island in front of him.
With the combined strength of ten kingdoms, Zhao Xing had a huge advantage in attacking Sin Sea. The Purple Dragon God violently killed the Great Dragon King Ji and ruled the kingdoms of Longyuan and Sky Sea. He didn't have much time to prepare for war, and not all Dragon Race were willing to be ruled by the Reverse Dragon.
Therefore, in the clash of armies, Zhao Xing, the legitimate Dragon Emperor, enjoyed far more support than the Purple Dragon God.
Zhao Xing's development is at least ten times greater than that of Purple Dragon God, if not a hundred times. "The only uncertain factor is Purple Dragon God."
"If he leaves, taking the remaining legal code with him, I will be unable to lift the ban on the Dragon Court Ancient Land, and unable to bring the Dragon Race of the Dragon Court Ancient Land out and gather them into the fortune of the Great Zhou."
In Zhao Xing's plan, obtaining the remaining fragments of the Dragon Court Codex was the primary objective, and of course, killing the Purple Dragon God along with it would be ideal. Taking a deep breath, Zhao Xing unfolded the Dragon Court Law Codex and issued orders to the Dragon Race army.
"Activate the Fu Ming Myriad Dragon Formation!" "Set up the Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle!" "Activate the Fu Ming Flame Palace!" "Dragon Slaying Platform!"
Commands were transmitted one after another, and the entire world within a hundred miles of Sea Dragon Island changed color.
The water level of the Sin Sea was dropping rapidly, like the tide receding. In less than a day, the seabed was exposed, and the Sea Dragon Island Sin became a mountain!
The Fu Ming Dragon Formation is a ship formation consisting of a group of precious dragon ships. Each dragon ship is staffed with a hundred City Lord Level and a hundred other Lord Level. For every ten ships, there is a dragon king in charge.
Thirty-six Great Dragon King witnessed the appearance of Dragon Slaying Platform as large as a mountain. The thirty-six Dragon Slaying Platform merged into one, and finally...
It forms a complete [Dragon Slayer Fusion], and after the fusion is completed, it reaches the level of a top-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers.
The Great Dragon King each occupied a side, and a dragon scale flew up from each of their bodies, forming a huge blade above the Dragon Slaying Platform.
The remaining Reverse Dragon, as long as they exist, will be sucked into the Dragon Slaying Platform and executed. The Flame Palace serves as another line of defense for the Fanglong Formation.
The Sin Sea transformed into a sea of fire, preventing any dragon from being released. However, at that very moment—
Suddenly, a dazzling seven-colored light emanated from Dragon Island in the sea. "Boom!!"
"Boom!"
The world changed dramatically, and seven-colored light spread out, quickly revealing the phantom of a Dragon City.
The Fu Ming Flame Palace, the Profound Water Dragon Banner, and the Dragon Slaying Platform echo each other from afar. Flames built the city walls, and divine needles parted the seawater to form the foundation.
The Profound Water Dragon Banner and the Dragon Slaying Platform projected light onto the earth, forming mysterious patterns.
The secret runes converged at the center, and a Dragon God statue rose from the ground. In the hearts of the Dragon Race, the Dragon God is the Progenitor Dragon.
"Dragon God Great Arena?!" Yin Xiu was shocked.
"I never imagined I'd see it appear in my lifetime!" Yin Xiu was incredibly excited. As the inheritor of the Eastern Emperor Golden Script, he knew many secrets, and at this moment, the legendary Dragon God Great Arena had appeared.
The current layout is strikingly similar to the [Dragon Emperor Great Arena] set up by the Dragon God in ancient times! At this moment, all the Dragon Race fell silent.
Whether they were the legitimate Dragon Race of the ten kingdoms or the remaining Reverse Dragon, they all stopped fighting at this moment.
The Great Dragon King, including Yin Xiu, Yin Li, Hogg, couldn't help but step aside and prostrate themselves on the ground. "Greetings, Dragon God!"
Countless voices rose up, kneeling in worship before the phantom of the Dragon God in the sky.
At the same time, the Purple Dragon God also flew out from the island. He looked at Zhao Xing from afar.
"Zhao Xing, in ancient times, the Dragon Emperor was also born from the Great Arena. This is the final step to becoming the Dragon Emperor." -Zhao Xing, written by Purple Dragon God Town.
I used the last drop of true blood left by the Dragon God in the Profound Yellow World, along with the precious book in my hand, to draw out the last trace of power from the Dragon God's Establish Dao Dharma Body, and set up this Dragon God Great Arena.
Now, in this Great Arena, only you and I are qualified to fight; the rest of the Dragon Race can only watch from the sidelines.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xing felt a sense of relief. So this was the Purple Dragon God's trump card?
"Originally, these Great Dragon King, including Yin Xiu, combined with Dragon Race artifacts and grand formations, could have posed a threat to him."
"Now, however, he has brought forth the Ancestral Dragon's Daoist body, revealing the Ancestral Dragon's Daoist arena, which is the legendary 'Dragon God Grand Arena.'"
"Only he and I are qualified to fight." "The victor is king, the loser eats dust!"
Without hesitation, Zhao Xing flew into the Great Arena.
In the vast sky, the enormous body of the Purple Dragon God floated, its indifferent eyes looking down upon the earth.
Zhao Xing was extremely small, appearing like an elephant and an ant compared to the size of the Purple Dragon God.
After a moment of silence, the Purple Dragon God suddenly burst into laughter. "Hahaha, how laughable! Human Race want to be Dragon Emperors!"
I deliberately created an opening to lure you in, and you actually dared to come. "Human desires are indeed endless."
The Purple Dragon God spat out a component of the magic codex and said playfully, "The thing is right here, come and get it. I'll give you a chance to use it to your heart's content."
"You talk too much nonsense." Zhao Xing's body swayed and quickly grew to a height of 100 meters, which was the largest size of the Divine Radiance Golden God. It was also the form most suitable for unleashing his full power.
"Pure Yuan Projection."
"~"
In the Eastern Spring Festival, the Dragon Spirit Bamboo rises from the ground.
In the southern summer, the Blazing Fire Lotus the sacred altar.
Upon seeing the two plants again, the Purple Dragon God remained unmoved; they posed no threat to him. However, when the Ice Soul Divine Tree, the winter deity of the north, appeared, the Purple Dragon God felt a sense of foreboding. He tried to lock onto Zhao Xing, but Zhao Xing suddenly vanished into the mist.
When the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, the autumnal deity of the West, appeared, the Purple Dragon God could no longer remain calm. "Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine?"
"How could there be Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine in the Dragon Court?!"
Purple Dragon God got to see Zhao Xing's trump card as he wished, and his curiosity was satisfied, but he was greatly shocked and even felt fear at this moment.
Even Reverse Dragon is still a dragon. At this moment, the Purple Dragon God instinctively felt fear towards the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, which had a record of devouring dragon emperors!
This Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine is already at its peak, just one step away from establishing its Dao.
Plant life is difficult to grow and takes a long time, but once it grows up, being invincible among its peers is just a basic operation.
While both are at the peak of the Rule Realm, the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine could absolutely crush other types of life, especially Dragon Race! "Four Seasons Divine Splendor, Strangulate!"
Zhao Xing's Pure Yuan Projection began to move rapidly, shifting the positions of the Plant Soldier and aiming at the Purple Dragon God in the sky.
He unleashed his ultimate move right away, because spells below the Seventh-Turn of the ultimate realm posed little threat to Purple Dragon God, who was at the peak of the Rule Realm.
Only the tactics of the True Self Faction, relying on the strength of Plant Soldier, can play a significant role in such a situation.
From the direction of the Ice Soul Divine Tree, a cold blue light surged forth like a tidal wave, and the Purple Dragon God felt as if his blood had solidified.
"The Transcendent God Pearl!"
The Purple Dragon God quickly spat out a magic pearl, which emitted a warm light, dispelling the coldness on its body.
But he was more concerned about the direction of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine. The Purple Dragon God impatiently made the Shi God Clan emit two beams of black light, heading straight to the west and north.
The radiance of the two divine trees posed the greatest threat to him. As for the Geng Metal Breath exhaled from the Dragon Spirit Bamboo and the fiery Divine Radiance surging from the Li Fire Divine Lotus, he ignored them completely, intending to withstand them with his Dragon Body.
"!"
The Geng Metal Breath was deflected by the scales, but the Blazing Fire Academy spewed onto could not extinguish it. Instead, it penetrated the scales and eroded into the flesh and even the bones.
"How troublesome! How did he find this Blazing Fire Lotus?" For a moment, the Purple Dragon God felt a little surprised. He was of the bloodline of the Supreme Divine Dragon, and his body was virtually impervious to water and fire, making him difficult to deal with.
He can completely ignore attacks from those below the Domain Seventh Rank, and from spells and martial arts below the Seventh-Turn of the ultimate realm.
However, the Li Fire Divine Lotus is now in the mid-stage of the Rule Realm, possessing a Seventh Order domain and the trial skill [Nine Leaves Li Fire], which is comparable to the Ultimate Law Seventh-Turn magic.
The South Bright Li Fire is the pinnacle of the Profound Yellow World Fire; fire is formless and intangible, so blocking it is no easy task. "Yu~"
As the dragon charged forward, a broken blade appeared, its golden aura scraping back and forth like a bone-scraping force. As if scraping the bone to heal an injury, the Blazing Fire Academy was instantly swept away and crashed into the boundary of the Great Arena.
"A high-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers? It should be a Dao weapon that can counter fire element." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
In that split second, the Ice Soul Divine Tree's attack arrived. "Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
The Ice Soul Domain enveloped the Purple Dragon God's body, and its dragon scales instantly turned a deep blue.
"Snowfall Across the Sky!" "Extreme Frost Splendor!"
The snowflakes clinging to the dragon scales seemed to have painted a picture on them, depicting the shape of the Ice Soul Divine Tree.
Extreme Frost Splendor bloomed on its body, startling the Purple Dragon God. Having just driven away the fire, he was now faced with ice; he felt his movements slow down. "Transcendent God Pearl! Water and fire, disperse!"
The Purple Dragon God's second treasure, the Transcendent God Pearl, suddenly turned from black to blue, dispelling the frost. "Another high-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers."
"This treasure is quite useful." Zhao Xing looked at the blue-turned bead. "It can actually block 208 degrees of negative temperature and instantly dispel frost."
"The Divine Pearl is a superior-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers that counters the Water element."
To dispel the frost of the Ice Soul Divine Tree and instantly dispel the chill from one's body is no simple task.
Only a high-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers can achieve this; a mid-grade one would hardly be effective so quickly. However, having caused trouble for the Purple Dragon God twice in a row, the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine's attack has arrived. This is the real killing move!
Thirty-six main vines, accompanied by bursts of red light, lashed out simultaneously. "Shadow-Shifting!"
The Purple Dragon God was enveloped in mist, and its enormous body transformed into something intangible, resembling a dragon formed from clouds and mist.
"Whoosh whoo...
Of the thirty-six main vines, thirty-five missed their mark, merely scattering the purple-gold mist. The last one, however, struck the body of the Purple Dragon God.
"!"
Although he was attacked in the west of the Great Arena, the true form of the Purple Dragon God appeared in the south, still in the posture of being knocked back, flying backwards for a distance.
"How can someone with such a large body perform teleportation?" Zhao Xing exclaimed in surprise. Both "Shadow-Shifting" and "Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell" are prerequisites for the supernatural power "Star Shifting".
However, Shadow-Shifting is the Ultimate Law, Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell is the ultimate martial art. The Purple Dragon God is actually a practitioner of both magic and martial arts.
He possesses an exceptionally strong physical body, yet also understands Ultimate Law. This isn't an innate secret technique, but rather something he acquired through extensive cultivation.
"Ouch!" The Purple Dragon God was whipped by the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, and his whole body was enveloped in a bloody mist. The Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine's life-corroding properties caused him to lose a portion of his vital energy.
His dragon scales were undamaged, yet his vital energy was shaken out, which was completely unreasonable.
"The innate secret technique [Dragon Clan Bane], it's no joke." Zhao Xing laughed upon seeing this.
In his perception, the Li Fire Divine Lotus and the Ice Soul Divine Tree barely broke through his defenses, but they didn't lose much health, and the Purple Dragon God's life force didn't decrease much.
However, the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine directly reduced his life force by one-twentieth.
The Purple Dragon God sensed it too, and was utterly horrified. "Twenty lashes, and I'll die?"
It was truly terrified of the legendary Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine.
At this moment, he understood why Witch Moon God had made this arrangement.
If it weren't for the existence of the Great Arena, he would have had to deal not only with Zhao Xing but also with the combined attacks of Yin Xiu and the other Great Dragon King. "We must suppress the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine!" The Purple Dragon God immediately spat out a ball of earth-yellow light.
"Severance Talisman?!" Zhao Xing's expression changed slightly.
"Hahaha, you have quite a good eye." The Purple Dragon God swiftly struck the ground with Severance Talisman. What is Severance Talisman?
It's a kind of [Minor Divine Ability Talisman]!
It was created based on the Major Divine Ability of Sever Heaven and Earth ". Zhao Xing understood when the Severance Talisman" appeared.
This was the trump card that the Witch Moon God bestowed upon the Purple Dragon God. It was also a plan specifically designed to target him.
Because of the Severance Talisman, it can restrict all earth-related spells, including suppressing Pure Origin Soil.
The rest of the treasures of the Purple Dragon God are all of high quality, but the Severance Talisman is a one-time consumable. If it were sold in the universe, it could fetch the price of a low-grade World Star Dao Soldiers. It is a treasure on the same level as the Snow Cangwu Summit Leaf!
To use this technique in the Profound Yellow World to deal with Zhao Xing, who is only at the early stage of the Rule Realm? It has to be said that Witch Moon God really values Zhao Xing.
"Within the Severance Talisman, all earth-based spells are rendered ineffective, and the Pure Yuan Projection is also included here. Without the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, Zhao Xing is merely a minor early-stage Rule Realm cultivator!" The Purple Dragon God's gaze was icy, his attention fixed on the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine.
Completely unaware, Zhao Xing suddenly had a sword in his hand.
"You do have something." Zhao Xing's gaze turned to the Purple Dragon God in the south. "However, do you think you're the only one with treasures?"
He reached out and summoned a slender, purplish-black sword. "Big, big, big!"
Zhao Xing is now a giant of 100 meters tall, and the purplish-black slender sword in his hand has also grown to about 33 meters in length. A terrifying aura of thunder suddenly emerged, which instantly attracted the attention of the Purple Power Dragon God.
"What kind of treasure is this?!"
Zhao Xing threw his magic sword directly at the Severance Talisman! "Whoosh!"
Lightning flashed, Thunder Law Sword Severance Talisman before it hit the ground. Boom! Boom!
What appeared to be a thin sheet of paper was impenetrable to the sword tip. Two forces were locked in a stalemate, unable to gain the upper hand. "What?!"
The Purple Dragon God was immediately shocked. The Severance Talisman was actually blocked?
"The Soldier Envoy Divine Art, his Infinite Divine Splendor!" Zhao Xing immediately changed tactics.
The Ice Soul Divine Tree, Dragon Spirit Bamboo, and Blazing Fire Lotus suddenly seemed to have been injected with adrenaline, unleashing a continuous barrage of attacks without any cooldown. Geng Metal Breath, Nine Leaves Li Fire, Extreme Frost Splendor...
The innate secret techniques seemed to be given away for free, and they were used to attack the Purple Dragon God.
After mastering the second level of the Divine Art of War, the Self-Oriented Minister of Agriculture further enhanced his control over plant life.
After cultivating the "Four Seasons Divine Splendor Dao Field," plant life can defy its life instincts and begin to launch self-destructive attacks. If one reaches the third level, Infinite Divine Splendor will upgrade to Divine Splendor Heavenly Calamity.
When manipulated to the extreme, plant life defies its survival instinct, transforming from self-destructive attacks into suicidal attacks.
Of course, Zhao Xing can only reach the level of "Infinite Divine Splendor" now, which means ignoring the cooldown time of innate skills and seamlessly connecting innate secret techniques in a very short time, at the cost of sacrificing the lifespan of plants.
So the Purple Dragon God witnessed a very bizarre scene.
The nine petals of the Li Fire Divine Lotus closed in an instant, then burst forth again.
The bamboo joints of the Dragon Spirit Bamboo shimmered continuously, lighting up section by section from the root upwards, emitting Geng Metal Breath.
The Ice Soul Divine Tree shook violently, its leaves falling off in large quantities, as if it wanted to shake itself bare. "You..."
The Purple Dragon God was stunned by the sudden surge in attack intensity. Even plant life could fight desperately?
He had never seen anything like it before. "Bang bang bang bang bang!"
Dragon scales burst open, flesh and blood flew everywhere, flames burned on the flesh and blood, one section of the dragon's body was ice blue, and the other was fiery red.
My upper body was frozen numb, while my lower body burned with a searing, excruciating pain. "Ouch~~"
Even with the protection of the Divine Pearl and the Purple-Gold Blade, he was still injured at this moment. At this moment, the Purple Dragon God deeply felt the power of the Primal Sect's Minister of Agriculture.
This is the new version of the Primal Faction's Si Nong; with just three plants, Zhao Xing completely overwhelmed the Purple Dragon God. "Shadow Shift!"
The Purple Dragon God roared, its red eyes locking onto Zhao Xing's location. This time, it intended to move to Zhao Xing's side and use its...
The result of the innate secret technique was Zhao Xing's true form.
But the three plants were merely a cover. Cast [Infinite Extension] on the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine.
The moment the Purple Dragon God was suppressed, the thirty-six tentacles of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine completely enveloped it. "Death Barrier!"
The vines covered the sky, and the surrounding Dragon Race could no longer see the Purple Dragon God's figure at all.
The Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine had completely enveloped him. The hemispherical, blood-red barrier suddenly tightened!
A large cloud of blood mist burst out, only to be absorbed by the holes in the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine tentacles before it could spread! "What... what kind of monster is this..."
"Terrifying! Even the bloodline of the Supreme Dragon God has been beaten like this?"
"I felt my body trembling, as if it were some kind of terrifying being."
"What is it?" "Roar!"
Countless Dragon Race instinctively fear the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, which once severely damaged the Dragon Race in a certain era. The Dragon Clan Bane is etched into the Dragon Race's bloodline instinct.
Just like an ordinary person seeing a venomous snake, even just seeing a picture will instinctively make them afraid and shiver. These are lessons etched into their blood from generation to generation!
"Brother, what... what is that?" Yin Li's dragon scales trembled. He was also very scared. The Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine would frighten dragons regardless of whether they were friend or foe.
"It's... it's the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine." Yin Xiu's voice trembled slightly. "I didn't expect it to survive and even be controlled by the Dragon Emperor." "What? It's actually it..." Yin Li felt that Zhao Xing was the villain at this moment. Who the hell raised the legitimate Dragon Emperor, Elder Bi?
Dragon Clan Bane!
"Gurgle~ Gurgle~"
The blood-red hemisphere formed by the thirty-six main vines began to emit strange sounds, as if it were feeding.
At that moment, none of the Dragon Race dared to breathe. They were terrified!
During the meal, the dragon spirit of the Purple Dragon God actually emerged from the crack as a dragon head, covered in blood, completely transforming into a crimson dragon.
But as soon as he emerged, before he could even shout, he was slapped back down by the tentacles.
"Gaki, kacha~" "Gugu~"
It seems they've finished the flesh and blood and are starting to eat the bones. "Roar!"
Some of the Reverse Dragon even broke down at this moment, wanting to escape. "Puwa—"
At this moment, Zhao Xing suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He turned his head and saw that the source of the backlash was the battlefield between the Thunder Law Sword and the Severance Talisman.
The Thunder Law Sword was ultimately at a disadvantage, suppressed into the ground by this terrifying Severance Talisman.
It cannot unleash its full power if only the first layer of seal is broken, but as a one-time consumable, the Severance Talisman can unleash its full power.
Thump!
As if a stone had fallen to the ground, a voice resounded in Zhao Xing's heart.
The intense backlash caused Zhao Xing to bleed from all seven orifices. Not only was his Pure Yuan Projection unable to maintain its momentum, but even his hundred-meter- Golden Body couldn't withstand the pressure. His Thunder Law Sword was also forced into the ground by the Severance Talisman, leaving only the hilt protruding and trembling incessantly. "Yu~"
As the Pure Yuan Projection was forcibly forced back into the body, the Bloodthirsty Dragon Vine, Dragon Spirit Bamboo, Blazing Fire Lotus, and Ice Soul Divine Tree were also retracted.
It entered his body. "Boom!"
The skeleton fell from the sky.
Because the projection wasn't retrieved normally, the Purple Dragon God's shell wasn't brought back with it; instead, it crashed to the ground with a thud. Zhao Xing, despite his injuries, took a closer look and then breathed a sigh of relief.
The Purple Dragon God is dead. Only half of its bones remain; not a trace of flesh or blood is left. It has been completely devoured. Even its dragon spirit is gone.
Seeing this, Zhao Xing couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground. "The power of the Severance Talisman is fucking strong."
Zhao Xing was panting heavily; he couldn't even fly now, which showed how serious his injuries were. "Ugh~"
Just as Yin Xiu and the others were about to go to treat Zhao Xing, the phantom of the Dragon God in the sky suddenly swooped down, simultaneously repelling all the Dragon Race attempting to enter the Great Arena.
"Snap~"
The Dragon God's phantom reached the ground, but turned into a drop of blood that entered Zhao Xing's body.
Golden Light flashed, and all the illusory Dragon God figures shrank into golden points of light. After a brief pause, the Golden Light suddenly intensified, violently expanding outwards with a roar.
A giant golden dragon soared up from the Golden Light. It was Zhao Xing, who had just used the Hou Bian Method!
His size grew larger and larger, soon surpassing his original size. The Ultimate Marquis Transformation Art broke through from the Sixth-Turn to the Seventh-Turn, then the Eighth-Turn, and finally... Zhao Xing's Ancestral Dragon Transformation reached its ultimate perfection!
"The effects of the Dragon God's essence blood are truly remarkable." Zhao Xing moved his body, his injuries now fully healed, and Hou Bian Method had undergone a complete transformation.
The essence and blood not only contain the power of the Dao, but also possess the life structure of the Progenitor Dragon. The main reason for the reform Hou Bian Method is to have a reference point.
Zhao Xing originally thought that his "Ancestral Dragon Transformation" was at its limit at the Sixth-Turn, since there could not be a second Progenitor Dragon in the entire Profound Yellow World, and he could not obtain the life structure of the Progenitor Dragon.
Unexpectedly, the Purple Dragon God still retained a drop of the Progenitor Dragon's essence blood.
"Purple Dragon God, what a wonderful gift you've given me!" Zhao Xing wanted to burst into laughter, but the occasion wasn't quite right, since Yin Xiu had already prostrated himself before him.
"Welcome back to the throne, Dragon Emperor!"
Wanlongpudian.
From this moment on, the Dragon Court Ancient Land finally has a true Dragon Emperor who is recognized by the Dragon God!
The Dragon Emperor Era written by the Guting Kingdom is truly worthy of its name! "!"
Zhao Xing roared with unbridled rage, displaying his power and might.
At this moment, all the Reverse Dragon exploded, their power absorbed by Zhao Xing's Dragon Emperor, regardless of whether they were Great Dragon King or rebellious offspring at the King Grade. "Merge!"
With a thought, Zhao Xing summoned the third component of the Dragon Emperor Codex, which flew over instantly.
The polluted air was removed, and it merged with the other two components. "Yu~"
Golden Light illuminated the entire Dragon Court.
At this moment, all life in the Dragon Court Ancient Land could see a giant dragon roaring in the sky. And not just within the Dragon Court itself.
Above the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate in the East Sea, a strange phenomenon appeared: Zhao Xing roared to the sky, "La la la~"
King Luo Hou, Ji Si, Lu Ying, Dong Ze, and the others immediately looked up at the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate.
The Dragon Emperor was born. Ji Si looked tense. "From now on, the Dragon Gate will no longer be a barrier for the Dragon Race." "Is it Zhao Xing, or the Purple Dragon God?" King Luo Hou asked.
"I don't know." Ji shook her head. "I'm nervous because I don't know."
You can't tell from the appearance alone.
Because after the breakthrough, Zhao Xing's Dragon Race form was very different from before.
It is closer to the form of the Progenitor Dragon, with a powerful physique; even its phantom image is oppressive.
Meanwhile, Tuoba Gong of the Extraterritorial Alliance was also asking Da Gui, "Is it the Purple Dragon God, or Zhao Xing?"
"I don't know." Tiangui shook his head.
"But I can sense that the Severance Talisman has already been used, so the Purple Dragon God should have won."
Even if the Severance Talisman Cannot Be Killed Zhao Xing, it should at least defeat him. Therefore, the one who should become the Dragon Emperor should be the Purple Dragon God.
Meanwhile, in the Dragon Court Ancient Land, in the Sin Sea.
Zhao Xing looked at the three-in-one Dragon Emperor Codex and couldn't help but sigh.
"The ultimate and perfected Hou Bian Method, I am now the true Dragon Emperor."
"Even if the Profound Yellow World itself has limitations, with the help of the Dragon Court Ancient Land and the Dragon Race's fortune, I can still reach the realm of establishing the Dao and ascending to immortality."
Just like how Ji Che was able to reach the Establish Dao Realm, it was because he was the emperor.
Zhao Xing is also Dragon Race emperor. If he so desires, he can also use the power of the Dragon Race to complete the process of establishing his Dao and ascending to immortality.
"However, this would impose limitations on me." "It's better not to establish a path through the Dragon Race."
Zhao Xing is essentially human. If he establishes his Dao using the method of entering the Dao through Qi Luck, he will be limited. It's unclear whether his lifespan will be calculated according to Ji Che's method or according to the true Dragon Emperor's method.
Furthermore, it's unknown whether his Three Gods Fate Palace, which he cultivates, will collapse as a result. The Three Gods Fate Palace Destiny are not subject to cause and effect and have transcended the Reincarnation of the Five Elements.
However, the emperor would then have to bear the consequences of his clan's karma, which would be equivalent to re-entering the Reincarnation of the Five Elements.
"There are too many conflicts, and if I establish my own path, I can no longer be integrated into the destiny of the Great Zhou. My true path is ascension, so it's better to establish my own path through human form," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"Rise!"
Zhao Xing landed and grabbed at the Severance Talisman embedded in the ground. "Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
A deafening roar erupted between the dragon claw and the Severance Talisman, with astonishing explosions echoing continuously. Confined to the claw, the explosions continued for a full three hours before finally subsiding.
"That's terrifying. It took three hours to unleash all its power," Zhao Xing thought to himself, secretly alarmed. "If it weren't for the Thunder Law Sword, I'm afraid I would have had to rely on my elder brother to save me."
Zhao Xing estimated that using the Void Seed Cloud-Soaring Vine to catch this Severance Talisman would be better.
However, the Cloud-Soaring Vine was his last resort, and he didn't want to expose himself to Wu Yueshen's surveillance unless absolutely necessary. His battle with the Purple Dragon God would definitely be observed by Witch Moon God.
Even considering only herself, Witch Moon God couldn't possibly bypass the Three Gods Fate Palace to calculate Zhao Xing's various matters. However, with the Purple Dragon God as a powerful medium, even if Witch Moon God couldn't see Zhao Xing, she could still see the existence of the Cloud-Soaring Vine.
"Without the Progenitor Dragon's essence blood, my injuries from just now, even with my Divine Splendor Golden Body, would take at most three to five years to recover. If I were to use the healing effects of the Cangwu Summit Leaf, I could recover in three to five days."
"Overall, this battle was a bit risky, but not a big problem," Zhao Xing reviewed. He transformed into human form and drew his Thunder Sword.
"The Thunder Law Sword is also peculiar; even when I transformed into a dragon, I couldn't pull it out. Only when I transformed into a human could I draw it." "Seal!"
Zhao Xing resealed the Thunder Law Sword, which quickly shrank, becoming thinner and eventually less than half a meter long, resembling a large embroidery needle.
"Yin Xiu." Zhao Xing up to Yin Xiu.
"Let's head back home." "Yes."
In the eighty-seventh year of the Yuanshuo Era, Zhao Xing became the Dragon Emperor. However, he did not immediately issue a decree to lift the restrictions on the Dragon Court Ancient Land. Instead, he stayed in the Dragon Court for another five years.
He purged all the Reverse Dragon from the Dragon Court Ancient Land, and unified the ten kingdoms into one entity.
"The powerful individuals from the Dragon Court Ancient Land can be taken out in small numbers first. However, some of the treasures can be cleared out initially."
They then went to the Central Dragon Court to begin promulgating the laws. The laws mainly consisted of two points.
The first task is to collect spiritual substances, and the second is to gather rare and exotic species from within the Dragon Court.
Three years later, Zhao Xing announced that some of his clansmen would be relocated to live in the Profound Yellow World.
After a while, when Zhao Xing finally emerged from the Dragon Court Ancient Land, it was already the ninety-fifth year of Yuanshuo Era.
Fifty-three years had passed since his fourth entry into the Dragon Court. "Boom!"
The Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate shook and began to expand.
The sea surface suddenly became turbulent.
The figures observing from afar were looking on nervously.
The Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate has never grown larger or smaller; this means someone is about to emerge.
"Will it be Zhao Xing or the Purple Dragon God who emerges?" "It must be Zhao Xing!"
"Alas, the possibility of it being the Purple Dragon God is very small. The Witch Moon God issued Divine Edict saying that the Purple Dragon God is very likely dead." "Don't talk nonsense! We still have hope!"
After shaking for a while, a dragon head god emerged from the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate, followed by the dragon body, pavilions, and dragon tail.
A tall, imposing figure stood on the deck of the dragon boat—it was Zhao Xing! "Screech!"
The two groups of observers in the distance immediately made different decisions. The powerful figures from the Great Zhou rushed over, smiling.
"Hahaha, it's Zhao Xing!" "I knew it had to be Zhao Xing!" "Zhao King is awesome!"
"Then he should be called Emperor Zhao!"
"Ahem, Brother Ye, it's fine to say this abroad, but don't say it when you go back."
The powerful members of the Extraterritorial Alliance fled, wailing in despair. Gone! The Purple Dragon God has fallen!
"Eight years of waiting, yet no miracle occurred!" The Purple Dragon Royal Court has collapsed!
"The gods are dead, where do we go?" "Let's run back!"
The Purple Lin King, with dragon horns on his head, had distinguished himself in the Western Extremity Battle, and now he was also weeping bitterly.
In fact, as early as when the phantom of the Dragon Emperor appeared outside the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate, the Witch Moon God had given Divine Edict explaining the situation of the Purple Dragon God. However, due to the existence of the Three Gods Fate Palace, the Witch Moon God dared not determine the situation inside.
However, Witch Moon God held absolute authority in the hearts of the others. Since it was said that Purple Dragon God was very likely dead, then it could be basically confirmed that he was dead.
Thus, the entire Extraterritorial Alliance was left with only a few powerful figures from the Purple Dragon Royal Court, who waited anxiously, hoping for a miracle.
No miracle occurred; the great Purple Dragon God was still dead. "The Purple Lin King murmured to himself, his eyes lifeless.
When the Purple Dragon God first appeared, it was as if the totem god had descended to earth for these royal families. The Purple Scale Lord even received guidance from him.
What was thought to be a great revival was devastating, as the god died so soon afterward. Purple Lin King could imagine the utter collapse of the royal court upon his return.
He was devastated, but Ji Si smiled. "Congratulations, Zhao King, on successfully subduing the Dragon Race!" "Congratulations, Zhao King!"
The swift commander Dong Ze, King Beichen Qin Feng, Lu Ying, and even King Luo Hou all paid their respects to Zhao Xingxing.
The Zhao ruler who conquered the Dragon Court carries a completely different weight. The significance is entirely different as well.
If Zhao Xing were willing, he could become the master of the third strongest super power in the Profound Yellow World right now.
Moreover, there's no need to worry about any rebellions, since the Dragon Race has a bloodline theory, making them much easier to manage than Human Race, and their cohesion is also completely different.
"Please rise, gentlemen." Zhao Xing returned the greeting with a smile. "I know you all have many questions, but let's wait until we return to the court. I will write them down in an official document and report to my superiors, then you will all know."
"That's only right." Rahu Lord nodded. "Of course, we should inform Ji Che of Tianyong Province and Abundance Capital immediately about this matter."
In the ninety-fifth year of the Yuanshuo Era, Zhao Xing led thirty-eight Great Dragon King to the capital.
Including Yin Xiu, Hogg, Tianji, Zhi... all of them were at the Super First Rank! The Dragon Race possessed a transformation technique similar to Hou Bian Method's, and at this moment they were all in human form. When Zhao Xing returned, the court and the public were immediately in an uproar!
"What? Zhao King actually conquered the Dragon Court and can even bring the Dragon Race out?" "Is he a dragon king like Ri Yunwu?"
"I heard he's even stronger than Bai Yunwu. I even saw Bai Yunwu bowing to the people behind the Zhao King before the court assembly."
"Hiss! Suddenly there are thirty-eight more aquatic creatures stronger than the White Dragon King?" "They're Dragon Race, not aquatic creatures!"
"The White Dragon King is not pure, but all those brought out by the Zhao King are pure."
"Yao, the White Dragon King is actually a bastard. I always thought that the branch in the East Sea was a pure-blooded Dragon Race."
"Hmph, there are legends of the Progenitor Dragon dragon giving birth to all things, so we are all descendants of the dragon. What's the point of talking about purity? You all are being extremely impolite!"
"Are you an official of the Bai Family? You look unfamiliar. May I ask your honorable name?" "I never change my name, I am Long Xiao!"
"So it's Divine Firmament Marquis Long Xiao! My apologies, we misspoke earlier."
At the court assembly, Ji Che appointed the thirty-eight Great Dragon King, including Yin Xiu, as the chief officials of the Might-Proclaiming Office of the Great Zhou, holding the rank of first grade, and they were all assigned to the East Sea. Instantly, the East Sea gained thirty-eight new official institutions.
Ji Che bestowed official titles upon them, and they accepted them. This action also signified that the Dragon Race had been incorporated into the Great Zhou's fortune system.
On the day of the 95th year of Yuanshuo Era, after bestowing honors upon Zhao Xing, Yin Xiu, and others, Ji Che summoned Zhao Xing and told him some good news.
"Great One, after you subdued the Dragon Court, the nation's fortunes soared, and I have successfully entered the Establish Dao Realm. Che, congratulations!" Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile. The young Wu Emperor had finally been nurtured!
"Haha, all thanks to you, elder brother, the Daoist Dao Master of the Central Extreme Hall!" Ji Che was very happy. Zhao Xing also laughed.
The Dao Master of the Central Extreme Hall was an honorary title established by Ji Che.
This is a palace specially built within the imperial palace, built for him. At the very center, it holds a position of utmost honor and prestige; the Dao Master, however, is merely a figurehead.
The title of "Central Extreme Dao Master" was given to Zhao Xing because he had nothing else to be rewarded with. He couldn't make a fuss about Nobility Title or ranks, so he could only make a fuss about the minor ranks.
Zhao Xing didn't care about these superficial things; practical benefits were the most important.
With Ji Che establishing his Dao, his cultivation time in the Rule Realm can be greatly shortened. "Che, quickly max out my realm!" Zhao Xing said expectantly.
"Easy!" Ji Che pointed, and a long river of national fortune descended upon the garden. The nation's fortune was vast and boundless, possessing infinite mysteries, like a golden galaxy hanging in the sky.
As it cascades down, it forms a waterfall with Zhao Xing as the focal point. "Hiss~"
Zhao Xing felt a surge of pleasure rush to the top of his head, a warm sensation that made him involuntarily relax his brow. Within the Three Gods Fate Palace, his Three Souls were rapidly growing stronger!
The Three Souls— Great, Earth, and Human—quickly progressed from the mid-stage of the Rule Realm Rule Realm to the late-stage, and then entered the Perfection of the Rule Realm. "So comfortable! My soul is nourished by heaven and earth, growing dramatically. Only in the Profound Yellow World can I enjoy such extraordinary privileges."
In addition, the physical body is also undergoing rapid transformation.
Early stage of the Rule Realm, Middle stage of the Rule Realm, Late stage of the Rule Realm, Perfect stage of the Rule Realm!
Within Heavenly Timing, Zhao Xing's Divine Splendor Golden Body had transformed from the initial stage to the perfected stage of the Rule Realm! "Wow, wow, wow!"
Zhao Xing's physique continued to grow, as if he were swimming upstream against a waterfall, which even Ji Che found somewhat abnormal.
"Big brother, you have Golden Body that's over a hundred meters tall at the early stage of the Rule Realm? Even martial artists are only this tall." "After reaching the Perfection of the Rule Realm, you're already eight hundred meters tall."
Even when King Luo Hou reached the pinnacle of the Rule Realm, he was still only Dragon Elephant Golden Body two thousand five hundred meters tall.
The physical body of the Agricultural Official is certainly inferior to that of a martial artist; the Golden Body of a magic practitioner is unlikely to be as strong as that of a martial artist.
Normally speaking, in terms of physical strength, martial artists are overwhelmingly superior to any other profession. Being caught in close combat means death. Of course, the difficulty for martial artists in killing lies precisely in getting close to the enemy.
Seven days later, the absorption stopped.
Zhao Xing then reluctantly left the waterfall of fortune.
"Brother, you're really good at absorbing! You've absorbed for seven days straight."
"My Divine Splendor Golden Body is larger," Zhao Xing said. "Mainly because my inner world (Pure Yuan Space) is larger than that of a normal Agricultural Official. The inner world of the True Self Faction is rich in spiritual energy, which also nourishes the body."
"However, compared to martial artists, they are still far inferior."
"Brother, you've also cultivated the Hou Bian Method. If you're in the state after Hou Transformation, you're no less than a martial artist." Ji Che said. Zhao Xing didn't mince words, nodding with a smile, "That's true."
When Zhao Xing unleashed the Ultimate Progenitor Dragon Transformation, in its perfect state, his magical defense and martial arts defense reached an extremely exaggerated level.
Only the ultimate, perfected Dharma Wood and martial arts, the perfected Domain, and the coordinated Starry Sky Dao Soldiers can break through its defenses.
The weapon can't be bad either. Under the above conditions, it should at least be a mid-grade Starry Sky Dao Soldiers. Otherwise, just standing there and watching someone at the Rule Realm fight you is like scratching an itch.
Of course, Hou Bian Method also has a drawback: in the Ancestral Dragon Transformation state, he cannot use the Shennong Art in his human form.
Because the Solar Terms Decree and the Pure Origin Soil will be temporarily hidden as the structure of life changes, there are gains and losses. The Hou Bian Method is useful in certain extreme environments, and it can withstand more.
Furthermore, the Ultimate Progenitor Dragon Transformation grants Zhao Xing a unique set of innate skills, essentially changing his attack method. For example, "Progenitor Dragon Creation" is a sonic innate technique, the Way of Great Sound, which can catch enemies off guard.
"Che, I am strong enough now, and you have also established your Dao." "I think we can consider making a trip to the Ruins of Return."
Ji Che was slightly taken aback. "Brother, why are you in such a hurry? You just got back, shouldn't you rest for a bit first?"
Zhao Xing shook his head. "Killing the Purple Dragon God this time was probably not what the Witch Moon God expected. He will likely have to reassess my strength."
"We need to get things done before Witch Moon God can react."
Ji Che pondered, "What you said makes sense, but how do we get to the Ruins of Return? After I broke through to the Establish Dao Realm, I was able to sense the powerful beings in the entire Profound Yellow World."
"But I still haven't found the guardian of the Returning Ruins you mentioned."
"As I said before, the Ruins of Return are very special. It's part of the Profound Yellow World, but its connection to the main body of the Profound Yellow World is not strong. It's isolated by the sea and the Earth Vein." Zhao Xing pointed downwards. "It's down there."
"Below? Still below the Earth Vein?" Ji Che was a little confused. "Then how do we get down?"
"There are two ways to get down," Zhao Xing said. "One is to go through the [End of the World]. There are four ends of the world: east, west, south, and north. They are the ends of the Four Seas, which is also where the Four Pillars Mountain is located."
"But this path is dangerous, and we could easily be ambushed by the Witch Moon God." "What's the second option?" Ji Che asked.
"The Cloud Sea Flying Boat, which was parked at Cloud Institute, burrowed underground and descended from the secret area of the Mystic Heaven Academy in Daoyuan Province," Zhao Xing said.
Cloud Sea Flying Boat? The secret realm of the Mystic Heaven Academy? Ji Che frowned: "Shouldn't the Earth-Drilling Boat be the Kunyuan Academy's Earth Piercing Divine Boat?" "I know about the Cloud Sea Flying Boat, but it's just a low-grade treasure. Kunyuan Academy does have a top-grade Thorough Earth Divine Boat..."
Shenzhou.
"Fifth Brother, you'll know once you send a clone with me," Zhao Xing said. "Furthermore, I need a powerful Agricultural Official to accompany me."
"How strong do you want it to be?" Ji Che asked.
"At the very least, within the Rule Realm, this Agricultural Official can only be Time Faction, and must also possess the spirit of voluntary sacrifice and dedication," Zhao Xing pondered.
Ji Che said, "The Heavenly Time Sect's Minister of Agriculture in the Rule Realm now has seven members. As for the spirit of voluntary sacrifice and dedication you mentioned... what exactly is this Ruins of Return?"
Mystic Heaven Academy, Cloud Central Institute, Ancient Marsh Grotto-Heaven.
The dean of Cloud Institute, Yun Ze; the dean of Wind Institute, Lu Xia; the dean of Thunder Institute, Wang Tianzhi; the dean of Rain Institute, Que Qing; and the dean of Houbian Institute, Ling Tianchen, gathered together.
Beside them were two vice deans from the Rule Realm, Chen Yu and Xiao Yun.
At this moment, the seven Rule Realm Agricultural Official of the Time Faction, along with Meng Kun and Ji Youtang of the Earthly Advantage Faction, led by Zhao Xing, dug a large hole in a wasteland in the Ancient Marsh Grotto-Heaven.
What is the Grand Minister of Agriculture doing here? Why is he suddenly coming to our Cloud Institute to dig holes? "I don't know. Does Cloud Institute know anything about this?"
Yun Ze was somewhat bewildered. "I don't know, I just received the notification myself. This place in Ancient Marsh Grotto-Heaven has absolutely no value, I don't know what we'd do with it."
"Why would Ancient Marsh Grotto-Heaven need to build an underground tunnel?" Wang Tianzhi asked Qiu Yuanshan. The latter shook his head. "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
"How strange, we've come all this way," Wang Tianzhi muttered. "Could there be some kind of treasure here?"
After the cave reached a depth of 80,000 meters, Meng Kun, holding Shennong Hoe, dug down another 3,000 meters. "Your Majesty, Grand Minister of Agriculture, we've found it!"
Zhao Xing and Ji Che, who were waiting in the cave, suddenly brightened up. They looked down and saw that the underground soil had been cleared out.
An ancient and mysterious Stone Gate was revealed from underground. The Stone Gate had cloud patterns on it, and the inscriptions were somewhat blurred due to its age, making it impossible to know when they were written.
"Yun Ze, descend in the Cloud Sea Flying Boat," Zhao Xing transmitted telepathically to the people above.
"Yes." Yun Ze is the dean of Cloud Institute. Originally, he was only the vice dean, but after his brother Yun Duo died in the Western Extremity Continent, he became the dean.
Metaphor
An ancient flying boat descended 80,000 meters from the large hole, carrying people to the underground.
"What? There's a door here?" Yun Ze was somewhat surprised. "I, the dean, didn't even know?"
"Meng Kun, Ji Youtang, you two stay here." "The rest of you, take the flying boat and follow me."
Zhao Xing broke through the door, and then the flying boat carried seven Ministers of Agriculture from the Heavenly Time Sect, Zhao Xing himself, and Ji Che's clone onto the flying boat.
The Cloud Sea Flying Boat continued to sink. Its ability to burrow underground was not strong; in fact, it was the most inconspicuous function. How could the Cloud Flying Boat of the Time Faction enhance its ability to burrow underground?
But within this strange passage, the speed increased dramatically.
Finally, even Yun Ze was shocked. "Its speed of escape actually surpasses that of the Earth Piercing Divine Boat? I had no idea."
The other officials from the Tian Shi faction were also astonished, but Zhao Xing, instead of being excited, remained silent and occasionally lost in thought.
In the Ruins of Return, the sky was a hazy gray, and amidst the chaos, great rivers cascaded down through the Chaos Mist.
The direction of the river's flow seems to follow some profound truth. The river flows through the mist, and each river is like a passageway leading to an unknown land.
Zhao Xing and his companions' flying boat traversed the river. After an unknown amount of time, the drifting Cloud Sea Flying Boat was suddenly guided by a force, passing through the turbulent currents, and then slowly came to a stop.
Suddenly, a miniature piece of land appeared ahead, brimming with the vitality of spring, and planted with a peach orchard.
After the flying boat came to a stop, white clouds drifted across the sky, resembling a secluded Peach Blossom Spring. "Is this the Ruins of Return?" the crowd asked curiously.
"Yes, we've arrived." Zhao Xing nodded. "This is our homeland."
"Hmm?" Ji Che's clone suddenly looked in a certain direction. "What did you discover?"
"The spiritual energy here is abundant, and someone is coming," Ji Che said. Even though it was an avatar, it was still a Dharma Body at the Establish Dao Realm, and its perception was more acute than others.
Soon, a graceful figure wearing a veil appeared in front of the flying boat. It Spirit Butterfly Fairy. Zhao Xing stepped forward and greeted her with a cupped-hand salute.
"Lord Zhao." Spirit Butterfly Fairy's face, hidden behind her veil, seemed quite surprised. "I didn't expect you to have discovered this path." "I was fortunate to have found it. Please lead the way, Fairy." Zhao Xing bowed.
"Lord Zhao, we've arrived at your destination," said Spirit Butterfly Fairy. "But before I lead you inside, please think carefully and decide on your choice. The Ancestral Master doesn't want you making a ruckus inside."
Zhao Xing nodded. "Don't worry, fairy, it won't happen. We are all prepared to risk our lives."
"Alright, follow me." Spirit Butterfly Fairy immediately led the group through a Peach Blossom Spring. After walking for more than ten miles, they arrived at an ancient courtyard.
The courtyard was strange, as if it were made of water, with rippling blue waves, and the entire building seemed to be enveloped by water.
Inside the threshold of the courtyard gate stood a middle-aged man dressed in a white Daoist robe. Upon seeing him, everyone immediately stopped in their tracks.
The middle-aged man's gaze fell on Zhao Xing and Ji Che, and then swept over the rest of the people one by one.
Then, he cupped his hands towards the gate, his voice carrying through the Water Screen before the gate, sounding somewhat weathered, "Greetings, fellow Daoists."
"Greetings, fellow Daoist." The crowd returned the greeting.
Ji Che's eyes lit up. He looked at the white-robed Daoist, and after bowing, he asked, "Junior Ji Che, may I ask the esteemed name of the senior from the Ruins of Return?"
The white-robed Daoist waited a moment, then his voice rang out. "My name is Yun Tian Dao, and I am the Grand Minister of Agriculture of the Xia Dynasty."
(There's more to come!)
