Ancestral Dragon's Choice! Arrogant Yuanshi

Ancestral Dragon panicked. After a brief analysis by his younger brother, he suddenly realized that the Primordial Violet Qi was no longer appealing; instead, it was burning hot, so hot that he could barely hold it.

Becoming a saint is indeed very tempting, but possessing great power inevitably comes with responsibilities and costs.

After becoming Heavenly Dao Sage, he inevitably had to help Hongjun deal with Ling Xiao.

Regardless of who wins or loses, Ancestral Dragon feels that the worst off will only be him, the cannon fodder.

"We must think this through carefully. In my opinion, this Sage cannot succeed. This is not a good thing, otherwise, how could it be our Dragon Clan's turn?"

Zhulong activated his seventh sense once again, and his intuition told him that his elder brother becoming Heavenly Dao Sage was definitely not the right choice.

"Get to the point, I know there's something fishy going on here!"

Ancestral Dragon shouted loudly. At this moment, he was in great agony. The temptation of becoming a saint was irresistible to him every moment, even though he knew it was not a good thing.

But this is Sage!

Immortal and indestructible, a being beyond the mortal realm!

Who in this world wouldn't want that?

Laozi and Yuanshi were well aware of this, so they didn't waste any words. Compared to becoming a saint, no other benefit was worth mentioning.

Therefore, even knowing that Zhulong was there, they didn't take him seriously at all and weren't afraid that he would bewitch Ancestral Dragon.

Zhulong's expression was solemn as he pondered and refined his wisdom. After a while, his eyes lit up, and he said, "How about this, let's go find Ling Xiao Dao Venerable and see if he has any good ideas?"

"Hmm? What good will it do to find him? Even if he can protect us for a while, he can't protect us forever."

"Could he possibly make me a saint?"

Ancestral Dragon's eyes sharpened, and he said solemnly, directly refusing.

"Now that things have come to this, even if there's a trap involved, this Sage must succeed!"

"Brother... don't be impulsive!" Zhulong looked at Ancestral Dragon in alarm. Had his brother been blinded by the pursuit of sainthood?

"I am not acting impulsively, but after careful consideration. Once I become a saint, the Dragon Clan will prosper and its bloodline will continue."

"Isn't this what you've always wanted?"

Ancestral Dragon remained expressionless, a sight that made Zhulong feel unfamiliar and cold, which made him suspicious.

"Is the temptation of becoming a saint really that great?"

Even the usually wise elder brother couldn't control himself and lost his true self?

"Brother, listen to me..." Zhulong said solemnly, pulling Ancestral Dragon away.

However, he was suddenly shaken away by the Ancestral Dragon, and then quickly absorbed the Primordial Violet Qi into his body. This whole process was smooth and effortless.

Zhulong stared in shock, speechless.

His brother's change of attitude was so quick that he couldn't react in time.

I'm totally numb from looking at it!

After a brief silence, Zhulong did not try to persuade him further. Dragging his weakened body, he left the Sea Eye and headed into the distance.

The elder brother chose to stand on the side of the Dao Ancestor, but his intuition told him that this was a mistake. If it were him, he would never do so. Even if Hongjun gave him a wisp of Primordial Violet Qi, he would not change his mind.

At the same time, after the Ancestral Dragon absorbed the Primordial Violet Qi, Yuanshi and Laozi sensed it, smiled at each other, and broke through space to go to the South Ablaze Volcano.

Just as they expected, no one could resist the temptation of sanctification.

Even the Ancestral Dragon was the same, so they weren't worried at all that the Ancestral Dragon would refuse.

"Foolish Zhulong, you still want to persuade Ancestral Dragon to join Ling Xiao. Little do you know that your teacher can bestow a saintly position, but can Ling Xiao do the same?"

"Utterly ridiculous!"

Yuanshi said with a sneer, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

This is the difference between Ling Xiao and his teacher, and also where Ling Xiao falls short of his teacher.

Even if he is very powerful, he cannot create Sage out of thin air.

With a single holy tablet, even the Dragon Clan Ancestor would have to kneel down and obediently follow their orders.

"Hehe, under the temptation of becoming a saint, the bond between brothers and sisters becomes meaningless, how pitiful and lamentable..." Laozi shook his head and chuckled, his face full of sighs.

Not long ago, he almost lost his foundation and fell from his sainthood. He knows that feeling best. Even he was mentally unstable, let alone the Ancestral Dragon.

As they spoke, they arrived at the South Ablaze Volcano. Gazing at the boundless fiery domain reflecting the sky, Yuanshi laughed and said, "This Phoenix, which has been struggling to survive for so long, has finally reached its time to rise again."

"The teacher is merciful, allowing these two wretched children to turn their lives around!"

"Second brother, we'll be colleagues from now on, so you'd better watch your words."

Laozi, hearing Yuanshi repeatedly call them "wicked creatures," finally couldn't help but speak up and remind him: wouldn't waiting for Ancestral Dragon and Yuanfeng to become saints be tantamount to creating enemies for no reason?

Yuanshi nodded slightly, then raised his hand and pointed, and the raging South Ablaze Volcano immediately calmed down.

"Yuanfeng, we've been waiting here, why don't you show yourself quickly?"

This loud shout, with its profound Daoist sound, shook all directions and carried immense pressure. The powerful figures in the southern part of the Primordial World were immediately surprised and looked up at the South Ablaze Volcano.

Laozi shook his head helplessly. It was pointless to say anything. Yuanfeng was undergoing Nirvana at the most crucial moment. If Yuanshi did this, it might interrupt her and cause irreversible damage.

Sure enough, with Yuanshi's loud shout, deep within the South Ablaze Volcano, a dazzling Phoenix phantom let out a muffled groan, its eyes revealing a bone-chilling killing intent filled with shock and rage!

Long ago, Yuanfeng was awakened by Ling Xiao. With the help of the true fire left behind by Ling Xiao, she was about to be reborn and take another step forward. She was about to succeed.

It was so close, but it was interrupted by a Daoist voice from Yuanshi, and all its previous efforts were in vain.

A wicked person's foundation is like someone who murders their parents—an irreconcilable enemy!

"Yuanshi! You've ruined my foundation! I'll fight you to the death!"

With a long cry, Yuanfeng South Ablaze Volcano to erupt, and flames filled the sky, coalescing into a divine bird that swooped down toward Yuanshi with an aura of annihilation.

"Hmph! How dare you!" Yuanshi shouted, feeling no remorse or impropriety. He had come with the opportunity to become a saint, yet he was treated this way; how could he not be angry?

You're angry, and I'm angry too!

With a single strike, he unleashed the power of heaven and earth, unleashing boundless divine might, and effortlessly Destruction the fiery divine bird.

Even if Yuanfeng was just one step away from victory, she was still no match for the Sage.

"Yuanfeng, do not offend the majesty of the Sage again, or you will be executed without mercy."

"We have come here by the decree of the Dao Ancestor to bestow upon you the Primordial Violet Qi, the foundation for your sainthood, which will exempt you from countless years of arduous cultivation."

"Not only are you ungrateful, but you also dare to attack me!?" Yuanshi shouted, raising his hand and summoning Primordial Violet Qi.

"Shameless old thief! I'm only one step away from entering the Primordial Origin Chaos Realm, who cares about your Primordial Violet Qi?"

"You have destroyed my foundation! I, Yuanfeng, hereby swear that I will fight you to the death!"

From within the South Ablaze Volcano, Yuanfeng's furious roar resounded, shaking the heavens and the earth, as if the world itself had acknowledged this oath.

Throughout the world, numerous powerful beings showed surprise and used their magical treasures and supernatural powers to look towards the South Ablaze Volcano.

"You ungrateful wretch! Even if I unintentionally damaged your foundation, the Primordial Violet Qi is more than enough to compensate you."

"You actually dare to challenge me to a death match? Where do you get the courage?!" Yuanshi coldly retorted.
