Banished to Poison Dragon Pool

"Greetings, teacher."

Above the clouds, Vast Wisdom Tree, Lu Qingfeng respectfully bowed to the True Immortal Ronghong.

True Immortal Ronghong looked at this disciple.

A century has passed.

The aura emanating from this disciple was indeed quite different, seemingly carrying some changes that even he found difficult to grasp.

"It seems that we have gained a lot in the past century."

True Immortal Ronghong smiled.

"Some progress has been made."

Lu Qingfeng said modestly.

The master and disciple then talked under the Vast Wisdom Tree. True Immortal Ronghong did not have time to discuss the changes of the past century with Lu Qingfeng, but only instructed his disciple on cultivation.

Lu Qingfeng's clone does not need guidance in its cultivation.

However, his true form was indeed at the Nascent Primordial Spirit Realm, and he faced many cultivation challenges. True Immortal Ronghong, after all, was at the Mahayana stage and understood the principles. Many questions that were rather obscure for Lu Qingfeng became instantly clear with just a little guidance from True Immortal Ronghong.

Three full hours later.

"Good."

"The progress has indeed been tremendous."

"With your skill, the Spirit Transformation Realm is already within reach."

True Immortal Ronghong nodded repeatedly.

During the guidance process, I also gained an understanding of this disciple's cultivation progress. In just a few hundred years, he was able to advance from the first stage of the Primordial Spirit Spirit-Nourishing Realm, the Nourishing Spirit Realm, to the threshold of Primordial Spirit second stage, the Spirit Transformation Realm. Looking across the Nine Continents of Chunshen, he was a first-rate genius.

In this way.

All the cultivation and efforts to win them over were worthwhile.

"Thanks to the teacher's guidance." Lu Qingfeng also had a smile on his face.

True Immortal Ronghong waved his hand, not bothering with formalities with Lu Qingfeng, and said, "You have been in seclusion for a hundred years and are unaware of the changes in the world. Go and learn about it first, and then pick up the affairs of the sect again."

"Yes."

Lu Qingfeng responded.

His 'seclusion' for a century coincided with the most crucial century in Nine Continents of Chunshen's integration into the Ancient Sorrow Continent. The situation must have changed dramatically, and it was indeed necessary to spend some effort to understand it properly.

He was just about to take his leave.

True Immortal Ronghong called him back and asked, "I heard that when you were in the Min River, you had a good personal relationship with Guangyuan, the son-in-law of Ao Zhan?"

"Reply, teacher."

"Guangyuan was the Yuan Lake Water Lord. I served Yuan Lake for a hundred years before becoming a disciple of the Min River. He was exceptionally talented, had a free and easy personality, and was impeccable in his dealings with others. I had a fair relationship with him."

Lu Qingfeng was taken aback for a moment, then replied respectfully.

"Impeccable in his interpersonal interactions?"

Upon hearing this, True Immortal Ronghong shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, I'll give you one more piece of advice. Now that you are the Mount Yu Sect Leader, you must put Mount Yu first in everything and never act impulsively or try to take the lead."

As he spoke.

Before Lu Qingfeng could speak again, True Immortal Ronghong closed his eyes and entered into meditation.

"This disciple takes his leave."

Lu Qingfeng frowned slightly, turned around and descended from the clouds.

"Over the course of a century."

"As far as our Mount Yu Sect is concerned, it is not a big deal."

"The Patriarch Tongxuan and Guangning Ancestor of the sect have entered the Sorrow River Dragon Palace to become gods and are no longer in the East Sinking Continent. The one in charge of the war in the East Sinking Continent is still the Heaven-Suppressing Grand Marshal. In the East Sinking Continent, the remnants of the Bloodspring Demon Sect have not been completely eliminated, and the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate demon army of the Ancient Sorrow Continent has arrived. Now it has established itself in the eastern territory and is gradually becoming too big to be controlled."

"Also--"

Jade Yang Hall.

Lu Qingfeng sat at the head of the table, with the Mount Yu Sect, the Chang Zhang of Wind-Hearing Mountain, below him, reporting on the changes in the situation of the Mount Yu Sect and East Sinking Continent over the past century.

In general.

During this most turbulent century, the Mount Yu Sect had already begun to integrate into the Sorrow River Dragon Palace. Not only were the two founders, Tongxuan and Guangning, deified in the Sorrow River Dragon Palace, but many members of the sect, including those at the Primordial Spirit True One and Core Formation True Person, were also granted the title of god. However, since they were newcomers, most of them held positions without real power or served in the Sorrow River Water Army.

As for the East Sinking Continent.

One hundred years ago.

With the two patriarchs of the Bloodspring Demon Sect about their own destruction, the sect crumbled and disintegrated. The Heaven-Suppressing Grand Marshal led the Heaven-Suppressing Army to wipe out the remaining members of the demon sect, unleashing a bloodbath across the East Sinking Continent.

However, before they could establish a firm foothold, the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate of the South Sea of the Ancient Sorrow Continent crossed the boundary and its True Immortal took action, catching the Heaven-Suppressing Army off guard and forcibly occupying the eastern border of the East Sinking Continent.

With a single call, he gathered the remnants of the Bloodspring Demon Sect from the East Sinking Continent, as well as demons from the East Aspect Continent, the East Submerging Continent, Sea of No Delusion, creating quite a stir.

They confronted the Heaven-Suppressing Army and the Mount Yu Sect.

Despite constant large and small battles, they took advantage of the chaos to establish themselves in the East Sinking Continent, making them difficult to eradicate.

"The Spirit Communion Limitless Gate".

Lu Qingfeng nodded slightly.

This is a major demon sect in the Ancient Sorrow Continent, far more powerful than the Bloodspring Demon Sect. Its ability to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Azure Sea Void Palace sects of the Ancient Sorrow Heavenly Court, in the South Sea speaks volumes about its capabilities.

This time, Ancient Sorrow annexed Chun Nine Continents of Chunshen.

The Three Dragon Palaces Heavenly Court, seizing the initiative. The Demon Sects and other demonic Demon Sect, such as the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate, arrived a step later and, although slightly behind, still gained considerable benefits.

"Any news about the Min River?"

Lu Qingfeng pondered for a moment, gaining a general understanding of the situation in the Mount Yu Sect and East Sinking Continent, before asking for information about the Min River.

The final admonition from the True Immortal Ronghong made him somewhat uneasy.

Chang Zhang was a gaunt old man with a glint of Radiance in his eyes.

As if prepared for Lu Qingfeng's question, he answered without hesitation, "The situation in the East Sinking Continent is gradually stabilizing, and now only the Heaven-Suppressing Army is stationed there. Temporarily mobilized forces such as the Min River and Wu River Water Army have all returned to Ancient Sorrow and returned to their respective positions. However, the Min River— "

"How?"

Lu Qingfeng's expression remained unchanged, but his gaze remained fixed on Chang Zhang.

"Min River— "

Chang Zhang paused, then shook his head and said, "The Min River Dragon Lord has a disciple named Red Cypress. Not only did he join the demons of the Northern Dark Continent, but he also killed the son of the Wu River Dragon Lord."

"I am aware of this matter. The Grand Marshal himself made the judgment, and it has long been dropped."

Lu Qingfeng's voice was low and deep, "Could there be another unexpected development?"

He frowned inwardly.

This shouldn't be the case.

Min River had a close relationship with him, and the Heaven-Suppressing Grand Marshal personally handled the matter, so there was no possibility of any backsliding.

Upon hearing this, Chang Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "Sect Leader, you may not know this. This matter has indeed been put behind us long ago, but fifty years ago, another person emerged from the Min River who had joined the demons. He had a close relationship with the Min River lineage, even more so than Red Cypress. The Grand Marshal was furious and demoted Ao Zhan, who had just regained his position as Dragon Lord, to the Water Lord of the Poison Dragon Pool in the East Submerging Continent. He was sent to take up his post along with his three sons, one daughter, and a whole family."

"The Poison Dragon Pool of the East Submerging Continent?"

Lu Qingfeng raised an eyebrow, a region far worse than the southern Southern Borderlands East Sinking Continent flashing through his mind—

Poison Dragon wreak havoc, demons run rampant, and demon kings stand in droves; it is truly a desolate and treacherous land.

Let's not even talk about the fact that its status is far inferior to that of the Min River.

The Min River is rich and located in the Ancient Sorrow Continent, where it has been relatively stable for a long time. However, the Poison Dragon Pool is located in the East Submerging Continent, where the situation is chaotic and demons are rampant, and the dangers there are beyond the Human Path.

From the Min River to the Poison Dragon Pool, the difference in elevation is more than ten thousand feet.

Apart from his family and without any generals or subordinates to follow him, it was like starting from scratch, which was even more difficult.

"Le'er".

Amidst the Nine-Heavens Astral Wind Sea of No Delusion.

A figure sped off like lightning, heading straight west. Suddenly, the figure turned mid-air and swept south towards the East Submerging Continent.

A figure and face were revealed amidst the fierce wind.

He wore a dragon-shaped crown on his head and Water-Merging Daoist Robe.

A yellow velvet sash cinches her waist, and she wears brightly colored cloud-patterned shoes.

He had a dignified appearance and an air of otherworldly wisdom.

It was Lu Qingfeng.

"East Submerging Continent"

"Poison Dragon Pool".

Lu Qingfeng rode the gale at an extremely fast speed.

His heart was burning with urgency, and without the slightest hesitation, he headed straight for the East Submerging Continent.

East Submerging Continent.

This continent is located south of the East Sinking Continent.

Beyond most of the Sea of No Delusion lies the East Submerging Continent.

Legend has it that countless years ago, before East Submerging Continent was called East Submerging Continent, it suffered a great calamity that caused the entire continent to Lu Chen, hence the name 'East Submerging Continent'.

Even today.

East Submerging Continent remains the most dilapidated of the Nine Continents of Chunshen, its territory fragmented and filled with barren mountains and treacherous waters. A hundred years ago, before the arrival of the Sorrow River Water Army, the situation was one of division between the True Cult Sect and the Golden Lotus Sect.

A century has passed.

Due to the intervention of the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate, the Golden Lotus Sect, which was originally on the verge of destruction, was merged into the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate and firmly occupied most of the eastern and northern territories of the East Submerging Continent, becoming extremely powerful.

Beneath the Sorrow River, the Heaven-Suppressing Army is the strongest, and it attacks the East Sinking Continent.

The Demon-Subduing Army and the Earth-Suppressing Army joined forces to attack East Submerging Continent.

Original.

With the surrender of the Mount Yu Sect in the East Sinking Continent, the Heaven-Suppressing Army conquered half of the East Sinking Continent without a fight, and was even able to free up its resources to the Demon-Subduing Army and Earth-Suppressing Army, easily taking over East Submerging Continent.

However, first, two True Immortal Ancestors from the Bloodspring Demon Sect attempted to overthrow the Blood Sea, delaying the situation for three years. Then, the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate descended and entangled the Heaven-Suppressing Army.

As a result, what was originally a very favorable situation has fallen into a stalemate.

In the East Submerging Continent, the Demon-Subduing Army and the Earth-Suppressing Army joined forces and occupied the entire Western Frontier region and half of the northern region.

It confronts the Golden Lotus Sect and the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate.

Two tigers fight.

The True Cult Sect, which nearly collapsed, was ravaged by war, with countless cultivators perishing and its strength greatly diminished. Yet, it ultimately managed to survive in the cracks. Unlike the Mount Yu Sect, which was thrown into the Sorrow River, where its two founders were deified and its fortune was swallowed up by the Sorrow River Dragon Palace.

Although they were able to survive, it will be extremely difficult for them to escape their predicament in the future.

Comparing the two, it can only be said that each has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, in the long run, the True Cult Sect has a better chance of becoming a top-tier demon sect or immortal sect like the Spirit Communion Limitless Gate or the Azure Sea Void Palace.

"The Spirit Communion Limitless Gate and the Sorrow River Dragon Palace each occupy the eastern and Western Frontier of the East Submerging Continent, and control the northern border of the East Submerging Continent."

"True Cult Sect established themselves in the southern part of the East Submerging Continent."

"The Poison Dragon Pool is located at the junction of the eastern, southern, and western Three Realms, making it the most complex and dangerous place."

The more Lu Qingfeng thought about the situation in the East Submerging Continent, the more anxious he became.

The escape light was pushed to its limit.

In a short while, ten thousand miles are covered.

Soon.

Upon entering East Submerging Continent, the Poison Dragon Pool comes into view.

Poison Dragon Pool.

This place is crisscrossed by mountains and rivers, with an extremely complex terrain. Due to the early Lu Chen of the East Submerging Continent, a treacherous pool of water of unknown depth was created. Though called a 'pool,' it is more like a bottomless abyss, its depth impossible to fathom.

Even cultivators at the Nascent Primordial Spirit find it difficult to explore the deepest parts of this treacherous pool.

I don't know when.

A Poison Dragon emerged from this treacherous pool, gathering a multitude of demons with its roars. Thus, the pool became known as the 'Poison Dragon Pool'.

Centered around this treacherous pool, the surrounding area, crisscrossed by mountains and rivers, is collectively known as the Poison Dragon Pool.

Decades ago.

With the situation in the East Submerging Continent stabilizing somewhat, the Sorrow River Demon-Subduing Army, the Earth-Suppressing Army, the South Sea Spirit Communion Limitless Gate, and the East Submerging Continent True Cult Sect all began to consolidate their rear and gradually expand their territories.

Although Poison Dragon Pool is a desolate and dangerous place, it is located in the middle of the Three Realms and can be considered a strategic location, attracting the struggle of the three parties.

Including the poisonous Poison Dragon that has occupied the Poison Dragon Pool for countless years, there are a total of four forces.

One side of the Sorrow River.

It is the former Min River Dragon Lord, now the Poison Dragon Pool King—

Ao Zhan!
