"Disciple, don't be afraid." The Red-robed Boy gently waved his hand, and Feng Yunyang's body floated into the air, completely out of his control.

"You probably don't know this, but the Kanglong Ding is a divine artifact born at the World's Genesis. Your blood and bones can be used by your master to eventually activate this dormant divine artifact. That is your good fortune."

As the Red-robed Boy spoke, he lightly flicked his fingers.

"When!"

With a deafening metallic roar, the lid of the replica of the Kanglong Ding, which had been scorched by the earth's fire, suddenly burst open above it.

This replica of the Kanglong Ding was refined by the Myriad Gods Ancestor for 500,000 years and is called the Hidden Dragon Ding. The Myriad Gods Ancestor wanted to use the Kanglong Ding to refine medicine, as the effect would be excellent. However, even though the Kanglong Ding was not under the Myriad Gods Ancestor' control, using it to refine medicine was a pipe dream.

"My disciple, you may suffer some physical pain when you enter the cauldron, but there's nothing that can be done about it. Refining the Dragon Emperor Sarira requires you to be clear- Divine Soul for a long time to ensure the vitality of your bloodline. I will control the heat of the flames to keep it within your limits. And don't worry, over the years I've been Body Refinement and feeding you many rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, many of which have transformed your physique, making you strong enough to withstand the scorching flames. You should be able to endure it for three days and three nights without any problem."

Three days and three nights!?

What would it feel like to be burned by flames for three days and three nights? This is the Star Fire!!

"No! No!" Feng Yunyang was terrified, his face turning ashen. He never imagined that his master's true face was such a ferocious and terrifying old demon.

The old demon fed him so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and made him Body Refinement day and night, increasing his physical strength many times over. It turns out it was all for this purpose—to allow him to endure the fire for longer!

"Don't force me! If you really treat me like this, I'll take my own life. If I don't survive, then you can forget about making your medicine!"

Feng Yunyang's voice trembled, his eyes were bloodshot. He had been driven to the brink of despair, and this was the only resistance he could muster.

However, his resistance was futile before the Myriad Gods Ancestor. "Sever your own life force? No, you won't. You are my disciple. How could you do anything detrimental to your master? I have already planted dozens of Soul Seed within you. These Soul Seed were all voluntarily accepted by you. I don't want to use these Soul Seed, but once I do, I can influence your soul sea to a certain extent. With them, you will not sever your own life force."

The Myriad Gods Ancestor smiled, but in Feng Yunyang's eyes, that smile was utterly sinister and terrifying! He was on the verge of collapse.

Soul Seed!

Under the guise of a secret method for cultivating the Divine Soul, those Soul Seed were planted in him, completely sealing off any possibility of resistance!

He knew that he had reached a dead end today, with no hope of survival.

"My disciple, I have prepared so much for you, so just accept it obediently. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, you can tell me, and I will fulfill them for you."

The Myriad Gods Ancestor spoke in a gentle voice. His words reached the ears of everyone, and not only Feng Yunyang, but all the other disciples of Myriad Gods Ridge felt a chill run down their spines.

They were all kept in the dark. Apart from the Sect Leader of the Myriad Gods and the old woman, no one knew that he had taken Feng Yunyang as his disciple for this purpose!

Just then, a loud voice suddenly echoed in this small world—

"Did you all see that clearly? From the very beginning, this old bastard never cared about Myriad Gods Ridge at all! You think you're Myriad Gods Ridge disciples, working hard for Myriad Gods Ridge development, but in that old bastard's eyes, you're all a joke!!"

"He doesn't care at all that you've seen his monstrous side. To mold Feng Yunyang into the medicinal ingredient he desires, he manipulates all of you at will. He doesn't care about losing people's hearts, because in his eyes, Myriad Gods Ridge is nothing more than a tool!!"

"You've come to this sealed world. Do you think you can get out? You might be Blood Sacrifice, you might be silenced. What are you all standing there for? Attack together and kill this old bastard!!"

These words, spoken suddenly, stunned everyone. People turned to look at the speaker, who was none other than Yi Yun!

Yi Yun was now holding Longsword, his entire body surging with energy.

"This... this..."

Many people were stunned; they never dreamed that this meeting of elders and their Personal Disciple would develop into this situation.

The Myriad Gods Ancestor also looked at Yi Yun, his eyes revealing a mixture of surprise and amusement.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The Myriad Gods Ancestor suddenly clapped his hands. "Very good. Is this your last resort for survival? To bewitch people and make everyone here attack me? I didn't expect you could come up with such a tactic. Interesting."

"Blood Sacrifice? To silence them? You certainly have a vivid imagination. These people don't have a trace of dragon blood in them, so what's the point of Blood Sacrifice? As for silencing them... I admit that the Myriad Gods Ridge is just a tool of mine, but I've honed this tool for hundreds of millions of years, so why would I destroy it so easily?"

The words of the Red-robed Boy eased the anxiety of the elders and Personal Disciple who had been holding their breath. Yi Yun's words had indeed caused them panic, but even now, they dared not trust the Myriad Gods Ancestor; this old fellow gave off a terrifying aura.

The Red-robed Boy slowly approached Yi Yun: "You don't need to struggle anymore. You will die today. But you are quite insightful. It seems you had a vague idea of what I was going to do half a year ago. You also guessed my general purpose in taking on a disciple. You are much smarter than my stupid disciple."

As the Red-robed Boy spoke, his aura was already emanating, gradually locking onto Yi Yun!

Since he couldn't avoid it today anyway, Yi Yun decided to go all out. He chuckled and said, "Really not going to silence me? This Kanglong Ding is a divine artifact condensed by the Dragon Emperor, one of the Twelve Dao Ancestors, and it seals the Dragon Emperor Soul within! Such an important secret matter, not silencing me isn't your style, is it?"

When Yi Yun said these words, everyone present was stunned.

The Twelve Dao Ancestors!?

They all knew about the Twelve Dao Ancestors; it was an ancient legend. Was this Dragon -Kanglong Ding related to the Twelve Dao Ancestors?

If Yi Yun hadn't told them, how would they have known about this!

For a moment, the atmosphere in the arena became strange. All the disciples and elders of Myriad Gods Ridge were filled with unease. They understood that Yi Yun had deliberately told them these secrets so that the Red-robed Boy would really kill them.

Only in this way can they possibly start fighting.

That kid is fucking cunning!

Although they hated Yi Yun, they were also wary of the Myriad Gods Ancestor. At this moment, survival was the top priority for everyone.

The Red-robed Boy frowned, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that Yi Yun would know these secrets.

"Good! Good! It's not easy for a mere Dao Palace Realm martial artist like you to cause me so much trouble even in such a desperate situation. Unfortunately, I have absolute power to control this world. I have spent ten thousand years setting up an array here. Here, I am the absolute ruler, and no one can defy me!"

As the Red-robed Boy spoke, his robes billowed without wind, and endless Dao patterns converged from all directions, surging into Red-robed Boy body. At that moment, his body disappeared into the void, as if merging with the world.

He was like a god, the very law itself. His powerful aura radiated in all directions, inspiring awe and making people utterly incapable of resisting!

Just then, someone in the crowd at Myriad Gods Ridge knelt down.

The person kneeling down is none other than Cang Wu!

"Our ancestor's divine might is invincible, as long-lived as heaven and earth, and as radiant as the sun and moon! Whether or not the Myriad Gods Ridge exists, Cang Wu is willing to follow our ancestor to the death!"

As the sect leader's eldest disciple, Cang Wu is very good at judging the situation. His attitude towards Yi Yun after seeing Yi Yun lose power was a clear indication of this.

Although Cang Wu knew in his heart that following the ancestor was like following a man-eating Fierce Beasts, could he not listen to the ancestor and listen to Yi Yun instead?

He couldn't possibly rebel against the Myriad Gods Ancestor. On the contrary, if he wholeheartedly became the Myriad Gods Ancestor's loyal dog, he might still have a chance to survive, and might even receive benefits from the Ancestor. If all else failed, he could sign Soul Contract.

Humans are social animals that are easily influenced. Sometimes, a riot or the surrender of a large army only requires a leader. With Cang Wu taking the lead, many people submitted to the Myriad Gods Ancestor.

"Our ancestor possesses unparalleled divine power, living as long as heaven and earth, and shining as brightly as the sun and moon!"

More and more people submitted Myriad Gods Ancestor had managed Myriad Gods Ridge for many years, and his accumulated prestige was so great that no one dared to resist him.

Seeing this, the Red-robed Boy nodded with satisfaction. "Cang Wu, you did well! I will reward you after this alchemy session is finished!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Ancestor!" Cang Wu said humbly.

The Red-robed Boy smiled, then looked at Yi Yun with a playful glint in his eyes.

"You're just a mere medicinal ingredient, yet you dare to try and turn my men against me? I truly underestimated you. Actually, half a year ago, I hesitated about whether to kill you outright, but ultimately, I was too concerned about the bloodline in your veins. I always had a feeling that your bloodline was extraordinary! Now that I've brought you here, you have nowhere to run or where to go. You might as well obediently become my medicinal ingredient!"

The Red-robed Boy licked his lips greedily as he spoke, glancing at Yi Yun and then at the Snake Woman.

The Snake Woman's pretty face paled. She understood; she was also one of the ingredients in the medicine, which was why she had been brought here.

"Bring them all out," said the Red-robed Boy. Then, the Sect Leader of Ten Thousand Gods waved his hand, and a spatial cave flew out of his hand. From this spatial cave, he then pulled out several more people!

These people were all dressed in the robes of Myriad Gods Ridge disciples, but their eyes were closed, their faces were pale, and their life force had been sealed off.

"They... they are..."

An elder recognized these people; they were all disciples whom Myriad Gods Ridge had taken in based on their "Root of Wisdom"!
