White Dragon Sovereign

With Futu Yun's current strength, dealing with opponents who had yet to truly step into the Heaven Transformation Realm was effortless.

Even the pressure of his leaked spiritual energy had nearly forced Su Ling'er, a Fusion Heaven Realm cultivator with a solid foundation, to her knees.

Moreover, he did not possess any ordinary Spiritual Arts. The lowest-grade ones he had were Minor Divine Abilities.

Not to mention Futu Yun, who was only at the Divine Soul Stage,

even for those in the Three Heavens Realm, a Quasi-Divine Spiritual Art was an enormous advantage,

while a true Divine Spiritual Art was far more powerful than a Quasi-Divine Spiritual Art.

Above Divine Spiritual Arts were Divine Arts that could tempt even Sovereigns, and above Divine Arts came Divine Abilities.

Forget Sovereign-level experts—even those who had stepped into the Earthly Sovereign realm would covet Divine Abilities.

After all, every Divine Ability possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.

The Divine Ability Futu Yun had used this time naturally did not carry the same power as one unleashed by an Earthly Sovereign,

but it was already more than enough to deal with a group of opponents who had not reached the Heaven Transformation Realm.

However, facing Heaven Transformation Realm experts would be more troublesome,

because when Heaven Transformation Realm experts came under attack, they could merge themselves into heaven and earth, reducing the damage they suffered.

Although Futu Yun could suppress the power of heaven and earth mobilized by Fusion Heaven Realm experts with spiritual energy pressure alone,

the Fusion Heaven Realm was said to be capable of drawing upon the power of heaven and earth, but the amount they could actually mobilize was extremely limited;

the Heaven Transformation Realm, however, allowed one to truly merge with heaven and earth.

Unless Futu Yun could truly shatter heaven and earth with a single punch, instantly killing a Heaven Transformation Realm expert would be far from easy.

They encountered no further obstructions along the way. Even when powerful spirit beasts occasionally appeared, they were swiftly dealt with.

After traveling for about half an hour, they finally entered the deepest part of this vast mountain range.

The depths of the mountains were shrouded in mist, with towering peaks rising into the sky,

while enormous waterfalls poured down one after another, their thunderous roar echoing through the valleys for a long time.

The group swept onto a verdant mountain and looked around, only to see human figures covering the mountains and plains;

farther away, countless more figures were streaming in from every direction, an imposing sight indeed.

Judging by this, every capable force and expert within several thousand miles of White Dragon Hill had probably rushed here,

the allure of a Sovereign Spiritual Treasury truly lived up to its reputation.

"This is said to be where the White Dragon Sovereign fell back then." Su Xuan pointed into the distance with a slender jade finger,

where five majestic peaks happened to stand, with five waterfalls cascading down them like falling galaxies;

a vast lake was encircled by the five peaks,

its water clear as a mirror, reflecting the lush green mountains around it and staining even the lake a deep emerald hue.

Over the centuries, countless experts had investigated this place, yet they had always found nothing. It seemed the time had simply not come before now.

If an expert of that level deliberately concealed the spiritual treasury they left behind, it would be exceedingly difficult for others to find it.

Futu Yun merely smiled without speaking,

for a mere Sovereign was nothing in his eyes,

but having read the original novel, he understood the background of the Dragon Demon Palace. That was the true reason for his trip.

To put it bluntly, he had only come to join the excitement,

for if he truly wanted the spiritual treasury, he could have Mandala directly move the entire treasury back for him to study,

just as he had once had Mandala move the entire Thunder Demon Abyss into the Thunder Realm.

Three groups totaling nearly a hundred people came hurtling over, ultimately landing on a nearby mountain peak.

They were the forces of White Dragon City, along with the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect and Earthwalker Sect whom they had previously seen in White Dragon City,

except their formations were now far more formidable. Reinforcements had clearly gathered with them.

These three groups were numerous, and their spiritual energy fluctuations were especially powerful, immediately drawing the attention of many people,

while the leaders of quite a few forces frowned. It seemed these three local tyrants had truly gone all out this time.

"They're all led by Heaven Transformation Realm experts?" Li Qing looked over, her lovely eyes narrowing as her delicate brows furrowed,

White Dragon City, the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, and the Earthwalker Sect might not count as first-rate forces across the entire Northern Heavens Continent,

but they were, after all, the local powers of White Dragon Hill,

and only they could mobilize the greatest amount of strength on such short notice,

so when the Sovereign Spiritual Treasury emerged, these people would instead have the best chance of seizing its treasures.

"We'll just do our best," Su Xuan said, nodding lightly.

"As long as we can obtain something from the spiritual treasury that proves we came here, the mission will be considered complete,

as for the other treasures, we'll decide depending on the circumstances."

Hearing Su Xuan's words, Guo Xiong and the others nodded one after another. At this point, they could only proceed like this.

Time swiftly passed amid everyone's waiting, and night soon descended,

with a round moon hanging high in the sky, its chilly moonlight spreading across heaven and earth.

Everyone held their breath, even deliberately keeping their conversations low,

while excited gazes repeatedly swept over the scene ahead.

Yet as the moonlight grew increasingly cold, there was still no movement in the depths of the mountains, making some people grow restless:

Could today not be the day the spiritual treasury emerged?

Low curses drifted through the night wind.

"It's here." Futu Yun stretched lazily,

as the round moon reflected in the lake suddenly began to emit a strange radiance.

The light seeped out from the lake water, actually gathering a faint mist over the surface.

"There's movement!" Countless people cried out in ecstasy. That phenomenon had finally appeared again!

As countless people grew excited, the spiritual energy of this region suddenly began to riot,

gathering above the lake at a frenzied speed.

The moon within the lake grew brighter and brighter,

its light continuously converging until, before countless shocked gazes, it condensed into a faint silhouette above the water.

The silhouette wore white robes, its features indistinct, but a lifelike white dragon coiled across those robes,

as a terrifying pressure spread out and enveloped the entire world.

A dragon's roar resounded through heaven and earth with the appearance of that silhouette, making the lake water tremble and churn,

while the boundless mist actually condensed into a white dragon that coiled around the silhouette.

Countless people stared in shock at the illusory white figure and white dragon,

before overwhelming ecstasy surged uncontrollably into their eyes. "The White Dragon Sovereign!"

Su Xuan quietly clenched her jade-like hand, and astonishment, delight, and helplessness all appeared in her beautiful eyes.

The spiritual treasury emerging this time was indeed a Sovereign Spiritual Treasury!

Light gathered over the clear lake,

and the moment the illusory silhouette wrapped in a white dragon appeared, the atmosphere in the depths of White Dragon Hill was nearly ignited instantly.

Countless eyes turned bloodshot at that moment,

as people stared at the illusory figure with ragged breaths, intense ecstasy creeping into the corners of their eyes.

The spiritual treasury emerging this time was actually truly a Sovereign Spiritual Treasury!

When everyone had first come here, they had only heard scattered rumors concerning a Sovereign Spiritual Treasury,

and no one could be certain whether the spiritual treasury appearing in the depths of White Dragon Hill this time had been left behind by the White Dragon Sovereign who had fallen here,

so most had come with a hopeful gamble, but now that gamble had finally been confirmed.

Countless people greedily licked their lips,

if this news spread, even many major forces would likely be tempted,

but fortunately, the news had spread too hastily this time,

and by the time those major forces received it, the Sovereign Spiritual Treasury would likely have already been looted clean.
