Ancestral Dragon Revives to Battle Haotian
Cihang is also paying close attention to the changes in the East China Sea.
Compared to other cultivators, he knew earlier that the Ancestral Dragon had not perished and was making preparations for his resurrection.
However, the fact that the Ancestral Dragon chose to reappear at this time still greatly surprised Cihang.
"This great calamity is likely to be even more unpredictable!"
In Cihang's view, this was not the best time for the Ancestral Dragon to be born.
He was still too hasty.
Amidst the joyful and expectant gazes of countless Dragon Clan, a dragon pearl rose from the seabed, radiating endless divine light.
As the Dragon Clan flew out of the sea, the turbulent East China Sea calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, endless spiritual energy from heaven and earth converged, transforming into a majestic nine-clawed azure dragon centered on the dragon pearl.
It was the true Ancestral Dragon, the ruler of the Dragon Clan.
The millions of the Dragon Clan roared with joy and excitement, welcoming the return of the Ancestral Dragon.
In an instant, all the spiritual energy of the four seas was devoured by the Ancestral Dragon.
His cultivation level also returned to its peak in one fell swoop, and endless dragon might spread from the East Sea to the Primordial World.
Countless cultivators sighed inwardly, truly worthy of being the former overlord of the three races.
Even after a long period of dormancy, he still possesses such strength upon his return.
But in the eyes of true powerhouses, it is not so.
Even the initial worries about the resurrection of the Ancestral Dragon have lessened somewhat.
The true strength of the Ancestral Dragon was not as great as he appeared.
The strength he displayed was merely a forced increase based on his previous level.
Not only Cihang, but also the Sanqing Ones and others felt that the timing of the Ancestral Dragon's resurrection was wrong.
The Ancestral Dragon's purpose cannot be seen through.
But the Ancestral Dragon did not explain to anyone, nor did he respond to the agitated Dragon Clan.
As soon as his cultivation stabilized, he immediately took to the air and headed straight for the Heavenly Court.
A terrifying dragon's might swept across, almost shattering the surrounding void and triggering a series of storms.
Upon seeing that terrifying figure, all the celestial beings and gods in Heavenly Court showed expressions of fear.
With such power, the Ancestral Dragon was simply beyond their ability to withstand.
As for Haotian, he couldn't give them the confidence to be fearless.
"Boom..."
Just as the Ancestral Dragon was about to rush into the South Heaven Gate, a divine seal descended from the sky, blocking the Ancestral Dragon's path.
Haotian's figure appeared in the sky above the South Heaven Gate.
Seeing Haotian, whose aura was no less imposing than that of the Ancestral Dragon, the celestial beings of the Heavenly Court finally revealed the joy of surviving a calamity.
Don't say they're afraid of death; the higher their cultivation level, the more they cherish everything they have.
"Ancestral Dragon, what are you doing!"
Haotian's expression was cold and stern, his voice filled with boundless majesty.
"What are you doing? Haotian, the Dragon Clan has clearly submitted to the Heavenly Court."
Why must you be so ruthless as to exterminate them all!
The Ancestral Dragon let out an angry roar, summoned the Ancestral Dragon Pearl, and attacked Haotian.
Since Haotian was already planning to sever the Dragon Clan's lineage, he naturally had nothing to say.
"Overestimating yourself. No matter how powerful you, Ancestral Dragon, were, that was in the past."
This is no longer the era of the Dragon Clan; you cannot be so presumptuous!
Haotian unleashed his spiritual treasures and attacked the Ancestral Dragon, each strike carrying the majestic might of heaven.
This time, Haotian seemed to be the master of heaven and earth, using all kinds of Law Great Dao.
This is not Haotian's cultivation level, but rather the power of the Heavenly Emperor's authority.
"Roar!"
Ancestral Dragon also went all out, showing no sign of backing down.
Despite forcibly raising his cultivation to its peak, Ancestral Dragon was still unable to gain the upper hand in his battle with Haotian.
But he had reasons that compelled him to fight.
On the other hand, Haotian wasn't actually as angry as he appeared.
If it were before his tribulation, he certainly wouldn't have had the confidence to face the Ancestral Dragon.
He is no longer afraid of the Ancestral Dragon.
This provocation by Ancestral Dragon is precisely his opportunity to re-establish his authority.
Watching the battle unfold in the sky, countless powerful figures secretly shook their heads.
At that moment, almost no one approved of Ancestral Dragon's actions, believing that he was undoubtedly courting death.
The Heavenly Emperor Haotian was indeed suppressed by the other sages.
Only a sage could suppress him.
Haotian was already a peak Quasi-Saint cultivator, and with the added blessing of his Heavenly Emperor status, his strength was terrifying.
If the Ancestral Dragon were at his true peak, he might have been able to put up a fight against him.
But how could such forcibly enhanced strength possibly withstand Haotian?
The Dragon Clan ultimately fell.
Once the Ancestral Dragon is defeated and dies, the Dragon Clan will have no chance to rise again and recover.
How unwise was Ancestral Dragon's move!
Even though they had no connection with the Ancestral Dragon, they couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Only Cihang felt a sudden realization, understanding the helplessness of the Ancestral Dragon and the reason for the inevitable battle.
Although Ancestral Dragon did not perish in the war between the three races, his situation was even worse than Yuanfeng's.
When Cihang entered Longyuan earlier, he discovered that although the layout of Longyuan could restore the Ancestral Dragon, it could not help it return to its peak.
If the Ancestral Dragon wanted to continue his cultivation, he still needed to rely on merit and good fortune for assistance.
As for this merit and fortune, it naturally comes from the Four Seas Dragon Clan.
Even if the Dragon Clan race is weak, it still possesses the destiny to suppress the four seas.
Through this stroke of luck, he will eventually recover.
However, after Haotian returned from his tribulation, he repeatedly suppressed the Dragon Clan.
Not only did they steal the Dragon Clan's cultivation heritage, but they also severed the Dragon Clan race's destiny, concentrating all their fortune in the Heavenly Court.
In this way, the recovery of the Ancestral Dragon settled into a period of calm.
Everything arranged within the Dragon Abyss was slowly crumbling and dissipating.
With Haotian's arrangements and calculations, the Dragon Clan will eventually become puppets of the Heavenly Court, completely enslaved by Heavenly Court.
Under such circumstances, how could the Ancestral Dragon possibly remain silent?
Even knowing that Haotian was exceptionally powerful, the Ancestral Dragon was determined to reclaim the Dragon Clan's heritage and destiny.
Only in this way can he have a chance to reach the peak again.
Otherwise, everything will ultimately be in vain.
"Boom..."
After witnessing the same actions of the Ancestral Dragon, Cihang looked at the two people in the great formation again and made a new discovery.
Although the Ancestral Dragon seemed mad and reckless, his eyes always remained clear.
At the same time, a hidden force is infiltrating the depths of the Heavenly Court.
However, the battle between the two was exactly as everyone expected.
Ultimately, the Ancestral Dragon had forcibly increased his strength, and as time passed, Ancestral Dragon gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Its form had become ethereal.
Only the Ancestral Dragon Pearl continued its relentless attack on Haotian.
"The Dragon Clan is a thing of the past. No matter how glorious you were in the past, you have been lost in the river of time."
This era does not belong to you!
A fierce glint flashed in Haotian's eyes as he pierced through the Ancestral Dragon's body with the Haotian Sword in his hand.
"Bump!"
The already illusory body of the Ancestral Dragon shattered instantly.
But before Haotian could make another move, two streaks of light flew out from the Heavenly Court.
It was the Inheritance Dragon Pearl, which Haotian forcibly seized, along with the Dragon Transformation Pool.
The Ancestral Dragon Pearl transformed into a stream of light, carrying two spiritual treasures back to the East Sea.
The oath of the Ancestral Dragon still echoes between heaven and earth.
"By the Great Dao above, I, the Ancestral Dragon, hereby swear that from this day forward, my Dragon Clan shall break away from the Heavenly Court and establish our own independent destiny."
