Mount Sumeru.

As the dojo of the Western Teachings, while Ao Guang went to retrieve an item bearing Ao Hong's aura, Jieyin and Zhunti were discussing the Dragon Clan.

"Senior Brother, since you've made a move, why not directly capture Ao Hong?"

Daoist Zhunti frowned slightly. "The Ancestor Dragon's Dragon Pearl is one thing, it's useless to us! But if we could recast the Innate Dragon Gate and the Dragon Transformation Pool! The Four Seas Dragon Clan, especially those with thin bloodlines like Flood Dragons, Qiu Dragons, and Li Dragons, would undoubtedly rush to join our Western Teachings, seeking an opportunity for their bloodlines to transform! The West will prosper, and it's just around the corner!"

Daoist Jieyin shook his head. "The Dragon Clan can dominate the Four Seas, how could they be so simple? Some mixed-blood dragons are not enough to make the West prosper!"

"And that Ao Hong is ambitious, by no means someone who would be subservient to others. If he doesn't suffer a great loss, he probably won't sincerely join the Western Teachings!"

"Let him suffer a great loss first!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, successfully retrieved a treasure mirror bearing Ao Hong's aura.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Qing, it's up to you now!"

There are predecessors and successors in knowledge, and specialization in different fields. In terms of transformation time, powerful dragons like Candle Dragon and Shenlong might precede Quasi-Saint King Pan, but when it comes to exploring the origin of karma, tracing true spirits, strangling vitality, and cursing primordial spirits, King Pan, a late bloomer, is superior.

"King Pan Bead!"

Although Xuan Qing left the "King Pan Yuan Gu Sword" and the "Heavenly Gu Yuan Yu Banner" to his "Plague God" avatar, he still possessed the treasure bead condensed from the opponent's cultivation.

This treasure bead contained the essence of King Pan's Great Dao and recorded all his supernatural abilities and techniques.

Among them were several famous curses, such as the "Seven Arrows Book of Spells," the "Straw Man Soul Worship Method," and the "Curse of the Five Declines."

"Curse of the Five Declines!"

Xuan Qing immediately infused a stream of spiritual power and the treasure mirror carrying Ao Hong's aura into the "King Pan Bead." A faint curse power immediately manifested.

"Will this work?"

Ao Guang frowned. He hadn't expected Xuan Qing to fiddle around for so long and only produce such an imperceptible curse power that couldn't even harm a Golden Immortal.

"Don't worry!"

Xuan Qing smiled. "I'm not trying to curse Ao Hong to death! I'm just using this curse power and the karma in the unseen to find his whereabouts!"

Before he finished speaking, he separated a spiritual light and attached it to the curse power.

In an instant, the curse power disappeared, and Xuan Qing's consciousness, following the curse power, spread across the past, present, future, and all times and spaces of the ten directions and three realms.

Karma was elusive and ethereal, but it truly existed. As a Great Golden Immortal, Ao Hong's true spirit was imprinted on the Great Luo Heaven, and naturally, there were traces of his existence in the world.

However, using a curse technique to find someone, Xuan Qing was probably the first in the history of creation!

"Found him!"

Not long after, Xuan Qing tracked Ao Hong's aura to a water mansion, where the latter was drinking and chatting with a creature that had a dragon's head and a human body.

Suddenly, Ao Hong's brow furrowed, as if he sensed some danger and felt a premonition. However, he looked around but saw nothing happening.

"In the Yellow River Water Mansion!"

During this time, Xuan Qing had carefully studied the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" and naturally knew which waters of the Primordial World the water mansion where Ao Hong was located was in.

"Really?"

Ao Guang was somewhat disbelieving.

But as soon as Xuan Qing finished speaking, three auras belonging to great divine powers surged up from within the Dragon Palace, tearing through the void and heading towards the Yellow River Water Mansion.

Ao Guang realized belatedly, "It's not impossible. I remember that Ice Yi Yuan Jun, who guards the Yellow River Water Mansion, seemed to have had some dealings with Ao Hong in the past!"

"Then we shall await good news!"

Xuan Qing smiled slightly, put away the "King Pan Bead," and said to Ao Guang, "With three great dragon powers taking action, dealing with Ao Hong should be a piece of cake!"

There were some things he didn't want to get too involved in. His purpose for coming to the East Sea Dragon Palace, from beginning to end, was for the Innate Spiritual Treasure promised by the Dragon Clan.

Yellow River Water Mansion.

For some reason, Ao Hong felt uneasy. He looked at Ice Yi Yuan Jun and said, "Fellow Daoist Bing Yi, can your Sky Concealing Mirror block Candle Dragon and the others from deducing heavenly secrets?"

"Don't worry!"

Ice Yi Yuan Jun stroked the treasure mirror in her hand and smiled. "My Sky Concealing Mirror is a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Its greatest function is to conceal heavenly secrets and karma! Moreover, during the Great Tribulation, heavenly secrets are chaotic. Let alone those old fellows like Candle Dragon, even those Heavenly Dao Saints cannot see everything!"

She was also of the Dragon Clan, but not of the direct lineage. When Ancestor Dragon roamed the Four Seas, she was enfeoffed as the Yellow River Water God and was considered an outsider among the Dragon Clan.

However, her strength was by no means inferior. Several eons ago, she successfully slew one corpse and entered the Quasi-Saint realm, surpassing Ao Hong. She was also one of Ao Hong's supporters.

"Fellow Daoist Ao Hong, why don't you take out the Ancestor Dragon Pearl and we can comprehend the Great Dao together?"

Ice Yi Yuan Jun smiled charmingly. "After you subdue the Four Seas and rebuild the glory of the ancient Dragon Clan, becoming the new Dragon Emperor, will you make me your Dragon Queen?"

"Alright!"

Ao Hong readily agreed.

He was in need of help right now, so he naturally wouldn't let go of Ice Yi Yuan Jun as an ally.

Besides, dragons are inherently lustful. Since the other party made the first move, how could he refuse?

"Ao Hong, come out and die!"

Just as the two were getting intimate, a jarring roar echoed through the void.

"Not good, it's the Red Dragon!"

Ao Hong's face changed drastically. "And the Shenlong and Yinglong! How did they find us?"

Before he could react, three scorching dragon breaths crossed the endless void, carrying the might to destroy everything, and fiercely struck the formation of the Yellow River Water Mansion.

RUMBLE!

The formation shattered instantly.

This formation was merely set up casually by Ice Yi Yuan Jun, how could it withstand three powerful dragons?

"We'll fight them!"

Ao Hong naturally didn't want to be captured. After obtaining the "Ancestor Dragon Pearl," he had already broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm. With the assistance of Ice Yi Yuan Jun, also a Quasi-Saint, they might be able to escape the pursuit of the Dragon Clan.

Moreover, he still held a talisman gifted by Saint Jieyin. If he could unleash it at the critical moment, perhaps it could allow them to escape into the world opened up by Saint Jieyin.

"Kill!"

Ao Hong roared, taking out a "Sea Splitting Spear." Ice Yi Yuan Jun drew a "Cold Li Sword," and they charged directly out of the water mansion towards the Red Dragon and the others.

At this point, their only option was to fight for their lives. What they had done was equivalent to digging at the roots of the Four Seas Dragon Clan, and the Red Dragon and the others would absolutely not let them go.

"Old Ancestor, you are old!"

Ao Hong revealed his Quasi-Saint realm cultivation and fiercely charged at the Red Dragon with his spear. "Only I can lead the Dragon Clan to rise!"

Meanwhile, Ice Yi Yuan Jun used the Great Dao of Ice to manifest ten thousand Li Dragons, freezing all realms and chilling the void, stubbornly blocking the path of Yinglong and Shenlong.

Ao Hong was quite familiar with these Dragon Clan ancestors. He also knew that the Red Dragon had been heavily injured in the previous battle with Eastern Emperor Taiyi. He unleashed his full power from the start, attacking the weakest of the group.

"Ancestor Dragon Pearl!"

He raised his hand and unleashed a torrent of lightning, then summoned the not-yet-fully refined "Ancestor Dragon Pearl" and placed it above his head. An invisible dragon might instantly swept across the void.

As the Ancestor Dragon was the leader of all dragons, his dragon pearl naturally possessed the power to suppress all dragons.

The Red Dragon's aura faltered involuntarily.

Ao Hong, seizing the opportunity, transformed into his true dragon form and swallowed the "Ancestor Dragon Pearl" in one gulp. He then rode the vast sea of lightning and charged headlong towards Yinglong and Shenlong.

"Hurry and leave!"

He certainly didn't believe he could kill the two. He merely intended to use the power of the "Ancestor Dragon Pearl" to create an opportunity for him and Ice Yi Yuan Jun to escape.
