Arc 20The Dragon Heir and the Enthronement
As Li Yun prepared for his Human Race enthronement, the Saints’ disciples sought alliances with powerful clans while he helped Huang Long claim a path back into the Dragon Clan. Huang Long gained Ancestor Dragon’s inheritance and a share of the clan’s destiny, while Li Yun set out for the ceremony.
- Di Jun revealed that Hongjun had made him a disciple and given him Hongmeng Purple Qi, while Nuwa and Fuxi planned to strengthen their influence within the Demon Clan.
- Laozi summoned the Saints and other powerful figures to Li Yun’s enthronement, and Li Yun traveled with Huang Long to meet the Dragon Clan ancestors.
- Bai Jie reported that the White Tiger Clan would remain independent, while Gui Ling learned that the Mystic Turtle Clan also rejected affiliation with either the Chan Teachings or Interception Sect.
- Da Peng chose to leave the Interception Sect and return to the Phoenix Clan, which planned to seek cooperation with Li Yun and bring the Ancestor Dragon Crown as a gift.
- Li Yun helped Huang Long negotiate a trial with the Dragon Clan ancestors, who agreed to recognize him if he reached the Quasi-Saint realm and defeated them.
- The ancestors revealed that the Dragon Clan held some of the Sea-Calming Pearls, and Li Yun learned that Yuanfeng and possibly the Demon Race held others.
- When Huang Long received Ancestor Dragon’s inheritance, its remnant soul tried to possess him, but Yuanshi Tianzun’s Jade Talisman suppressed it and transformed Huang Long into a Nine-Claw Golden Dragon.
- Huang Long chose to attain Dao through Destiny, and the five ancestors transferred one-fifth of their destiny to him as Li Yun warned them not to plot against him and left for the enthronement ceremony.
