Apart from One Hall, One Tower, what kind of rotten fish and shrimp were the rest?
"Let me go! What right do you have to hold me like this!"
"I've been guarding this Herbs for almost three years, and this mother dragon just tries to steal it from me! And now you're helping her?! Is there no justice in this world?!"
This Dragon-Type Magic Beast felt like a dog walking by the roadside when it was suddenly bitten by a mad dog.
Then the mad dog's family arrived, but instead of separating the two dogs, they joined the fray and got a beating themselves...
... So this is it?
Sun Buxiao at Earth Dragon, who was tied up like a dumpling, and then at Zi Yan, whose head was wrapped up.
"Would you believe me if I said I didn't actually want to steal this Herbs?"
Zi Yan grimaced and looked at Sun Buxiao with teary eyes.
"I believe you, I'll believe whatever you say."
"Hey-hey.
Earth Dragon:...?
"But you still ate that Herbs, didn't you!"
His voice, filled with grief and indignation, sounded as if he had been inexplicably beaten.
It doesn't seem like it.
"Give your father a moment of peace, so Zi Yan, what exactly caused you to fight with this guy?"
Sun Buxiao knocked the Earth Dragon unconscious with a single punch and then sized it up.
It was about 100 meters long, even larger than Zi Yan's true form. Its body was yellowish-brown, much thicker than a normal Ancient Void Dragon, and its limbs were also longer. It was clear that it was a dragon that lived on the ground, rather than in the sky.
Although the specific species is unknown, it is definitely called Earth Dragon, and it is not weak. It is considered to be at the seventh-tier maximum strength and can fight Zi Yan to a standstill.
"I sensed that this guy seemed to have a bit of the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon, so I came to take a look..."
"And then you ate the Herbs someone had been guarding for three years?"
"Yes...
Sun Dog: 6
"The bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon, no wonder it's so powerful."
Xiao Yi Xian patted the earth Earth Dragon's yellowish-brown scales, sensing an explosive power emanating from its body.
Quantity.
"So what exactly is the Ancient Void Dragon Clan all about? They have both Earth Dragon and Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast."
Sun Dog stroked his chin.
If he remembers correctly, wasn't there something about Dragon Bear in the original story?
You guys, Ancient Void Dragon, have quite a few fancy tricks up your sleeve, huh?
Xiao Yi Xian also glanced at Sun Buxiao.
You have quite a few fancy tricks up your sleeve.
Who knows what kind of Sun Dog and Zi Yan will have together...
"I don't know either. I didn't grow up within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. How would I know about these messy things?"
Zi Yan looked completely innocent.
That's true.
"But this does provide me with a feasible idea..."
Sun Buxiao conjured up his Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Tail and touched the tip of his tail.
Is the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast a subordinate race of the Ancient Void Dragon? Moreover, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast I killed also said that they are also a Magic Beast family.
Does that mean that the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast is connected to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan?
Even if there is a connection, it is not entirely clear which island the Scorpion Dragon Tribe is connected to, but at least it is a path that can be followed.
It's much more reliable than waiting for Hei Qing, who's wandering all over Central Plains looking for Zhu Kun, to come knocking on our door.
"Try to wake him up and ask him if he has any race."
Snap! Snap!
The two slaps woke the Earth Dragon up, and the first thing it saw upon waking was Sun Buxiao's smiling face.
"What... what do you want to do?"
The Earth Dragon's tone was filled with terror.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I just want to ask you a question... Do you have a mother?"
As Sun Buxiao spoke, he touched the Earth Dragon's nose.
The Earth Dragon's pupils contracted slightly as it glanced at the Xiao Yi Xian on its left, sensing that there was nothing wrong.
He turned his head again and glanced at Zi Yan.
"What the hell do you want to do to my mom?!"
So you have a mother?
No, my mother died a long time ago...
"I see. Do you have any other family members?"
66
"What exactly are you doing with the medicine?"
What exactly is the focus of this conversation?
Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan were completely dumbfounded.
What do you mean by "mom"?
"I don't even have a race, what exactly do you want!"
The Earth Dragon's eyes were now filled with extreme vigilance as it looked at Sun Buxiao.
"Tsk, useless piece of trash, get lost."
Sun Buxiao kicked the Earth Dragon's butt in disgust.
The Earth Dragon looked at the three large figures standing in front of it, but dared not speak out in anger. It could only burrow into the ground, and its presence soon disappeared into the distance.
With the Earth Dragon's side of the questline closed, it seems the only remaining option is to find the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast.
Sun Buxiao remembered there was Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast somewhere... but he couldn't quite remember.
"Let's find out the location of the Starfall Pavilion first."
It would be more reliable to go find Venerable Feng first.
Information about the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast can be investigated as a side quest.
The description of the major powers in Central Plains is very simple: one palace, one tower, two sects, Three Valleys, and Four Pavilions are all the Major Forces in Central Plains.
But to be honest, these forces seem to be just trying to create a catchy rhyme; it's hard to imagine that they could actually be discussed together.
The Hall of Souls is undoubtedly the largest of all forces, both in its overt and covert operations. It boasts three Dou Sheng, two Half-Saint, and several Dou Zun who have already achieved the Transformation Realm. Furthermore, it is backed by the Hun Clan, the strongest of the Ancient Eight Clans. It is undoubtedly a super power.
The Pill Tower is indeed the second strongest force. Its strongest member Pill Tower Ancestor, who is not the founder of the Pill Tower a thousand years ago, but a Ninth-Rank Profound Pill that has developed sentience. His cultivation level has reached the level of Six-Star Dou Sheng, which is stronger than Hun Miesheng. In addition to this Xuan Dan, the Pill Tower also has this Dou Sheng, three Half-Saint, and at least three Dou Zun who have reached the Qi Refining stage, as well as several Dou Zun. Considering its outward connections, it may be able to rival the overall strength of the Hall of Souls.
But apart from this One Hall, One Tower, the rest...
The two sects, Heavenly Underworld Sect and Flower Sect, are a pure henchman of the Hall of Souls and an all-female Sect, respectively.
The Three Valleys, Burning Flame Valley, Ice River Valley, and Sound Valley— Burning Flame Valley was indeed once prosperous, having produced one of the five strongest figures a thousand years ago, the Burning Flame Valley Ancestor, whose strength reached the level of Nine-Star Dou Sheng. Within the valley, Xiao Xuan also preserved the Xiao Clan's Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Transformations, as well as a Heavenly Flames, the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire, ranked twelfth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. Moreover, there was also a Dou Sheng- level ancestor, the Old Ancestor Huoyun, who simply did not concern himself with worldly affairs.
The situation between Ice River Valley and Sound Valley is somewhat humorous. Sound Valley is completely unknown, so we won't say anything. Ice River Valley is said to be the sworn enemy of Burning Flame Valley, but Ice River Valley's strongest person is only a Five-Star Dou Zun Valley Master, and there is no stronger person above him. What makes Ice River Valley worthy of being the sworn enemy of Burning Flame Valley, a Dou Sheng- level force?
Next up is the most humorous one, the Four Pavilions.
The Myriad Sword Pavilion, with the same background as the Sound Valley, was completely absent from the story.
The Yellow Springs Pavilion, judging from the name, might seem to be related to the Yellow Springs Demon Saint, but it's actually just another shockwave. Apart from one disciple who made a move, there's no one else to speak of; it's just a background character.
The Wind Lightning Pavilion is the weakest and most humorous group. They only have one Three-Star Dou Zun, Thunder Venerable has some strength, but not much. They clung to the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan without realizing it, and in the end, Xiao Yan kicked them to death like they were on the roadside. Even Sun Dog's Heavenly Poison Gate is stronger than this guy.
Finally, there's the Starfall Pavilion, established by Yao Lao and Gu Ling, these two best buddies. It's the only one among the Four Pavilions that has any real value. When Yao Chen was still alive, he was already close to the Nine Revolutions Saint, and it looked like it was at least a Half-Saint level power. Then... Han Feng chose to betray him.
Now, with only one Venerable Feng, Starfall Pavilion is sitting at the same table as the other three noobs.
When you put these forces together, it sounds kind of humorous.
Sun Dog felt that if he were a member of the Hall of Souls or the Pill Tower, being compared to the remaining forces would be an insult.
What? You're saying Sun Dog is already Elder of the Hall of Souls?
That's alright then.
As for the Ancient Eight Clans above these powers... these ancient races all have their own small worlds and disdain to cultivate influence in the outside world, except for the Hun Clan, which is very ambitious.
"The Starfall Pavilion is located in the Southern Region of Central Plains."
The Wind Lightning Pavilion is in the north, the Myriad Sword Pavilion is in the east, the Yellow Springs Pavilion is in the west, the Starfall Pavilion is in the south... It seems like it's just a matter of location.
The title was then given the name Four Pavilions.
"If we want to go directly to the Starfall Pavilion, we have to go this way. I'll set up two array cores for the Myriad Soul Devouring Spirit Array along the way."
Sun Buxiao unfolded a simple map of Central Plains and pointed to the approximate location of the Starfall Pavilion.
They are currently located in the northern part of Central Plains, and to get to the Starfall Pavilion, they would have to cross the entire Central Plains.
"So... how did Yao Lao's ring end up in the Xiao Clan Wutan City? The geographical span is a bit too large."
Xiao Yi Xian gestured the distance between the two.
Even at their current flying speed, it would probably take them two or three years to fly from the Starfall Pavilion to Wutan City.
The distance between Central Plains and the Northwest is so great that it can only be reached through Space Wormhole, and Central Plains itself is also terrifyingly vast.
The Dou Qi Continent is undeniably vast in area.
Therefore, Yao Lao's Storage Ring was able to travel from the Starfall Pavilion across half the continent to Wutan City, a remote corner of the Northwest, within a few decades, and precisely fall into Xiao Yan's hands as a relic of Xiao Yan's mother.
"Well, I'd say it's fate."
Sun Buxiao didn't say anything, he just smiled.
You can't find this thing if you actively look for it; it can only fall into Xiao Yan's hands.
"There really aren't any other explanations..."
"Let's go. Let's buy some things here and then head to the Starfall Pavilion. Although, even if we get there, we might not find Venerable Feng..."
Venerable Feng has always harbored considerable doubts about the death of Yao Lao. Over the years, he has never given up searching for any clues related to Yao Lao, wandering all over the Central Plains like Lao Hei. You can't find him unless it's something important.
Without hesitation, the three of them set off from Black Seal City. During their journey to the Starfall Pavilion, Sun Buxiao did not forget to inquire about a place called Fallen God Ravine along the way.
If he remembered correctly, this godforsaken place called Fallen God Ravine seemed to have a Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, and it should also have connections with the main branch of the Scorpion Dragon Tribe.
"Zi Yan, you gave me a drop of your Ancient Dragon Essence Blood, which has now merged into my body. Can I activate this drop of essence blood to release something like the Ancient Void Dragon?"
While flying at high speed through the air, Sun Buxiao asked Zi Yan a question.
What do you need Dragon's Might for?
Zi Yan asked curiously.
With Sun Buxiao's current soul realm, he doesn't need the dragon's might to easily make weaker cultivators kneel on the spot. Triggering the dragon's might would seem somewhat useless, or even incongruous.
"I can't exactly make you go looking for those Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beasts or something, can I? Your aura would be hidden for nothing."
If they find the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, they definitely can't let Zi Yan go directly into battle. Zi Yan is currently Sun Dog's most important card, but Sun Buxiao does need some convincing aura, and Dragon Might is the most suitable.
Sun Dog clenched his fist, searching for the traces of the Ancient Dragon Essence Blood within his body.
The Ancient Dragon Essence Blood had already merged into his body, so to draw out the aura of this drop of essence blood...
"I only gave you a drop of Ancient Dragon Essence Blood, so triggering dragon's might is actually a bit difficult. You might as well drink all the dragon blood you collected before. That way, although the dragon's might it elicit will be a bit mixed, it will also be easier."
Zi Yan offered her opinion.
"So."
Sun Dog tossed out a jar containing the dragon blood that Sun Buxiao had collected over the years. Most of it was refined from the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, and the remainder was refined from other Magic Beast with dragon blood.
... Oh no, that seventh-tier Earth Dragon also had dragon blood. I should have known better than to let it go.
Shaking his head, since he had let Sun Dog go, he had no intention of going back to pull out the Earth Dragon and refine it. He swallowed all the dragon blood whole, and at the same time, he let the Netherworld Heart-Burning Flame burn in his body. A faint, authoritative dragon might slowly spread out from Sun Buxiao.
"So this is what it feels like to be in a dragon's might..."
Sun Buxiao found it quite novel.
Unlike the pressure on the soul or the pressure on Dou Qi, is this considered a bloodline pressure?
Moreover, it should be a bloodline pressure unique to Magic Beast, with the Ancient Void Dragon representing authority within Magic Beast.
"Stronger than that Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast from before."
After glancing at the goosebumps on her arm, Xiao Yi Xian gave her approval.
However, it still doesn't have the same intense dragon aura as Zi Yan.
"If I stand before ordinary Magic Beast now and unleash this dragon's might, will these Magic Beast immediately bow down in worship?"
Sun Dog realized that the Dragon's Might might be even more useful than he had imagined, and gave Zi Yan a strange look.
"It's alright, nothing special. It's only useful against Magic Beast of a lower level than you, but useless against higher-level ones."
Zi Yan pursed her lips, clearly not thinking much of the dragon's power.
"Back when the back mountains of Canaan hadn't been destroyed, there were quite a few Magic Beast in that area. I couldn't even intimidate Tier Six Magic Beast, let alone you now."
"With the addition of soul pressure, your current level of dragon might might only be able to intimidate some Sixth-Rank Magical Beast without dragon blood."
. that's all."
Sun Dog's expression changed incredibly quickly; he soon became disgusted.
It seems that this dragon's might can only be used as Token to deal with the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast.
After traveling for more than a month, and even spending money to hire some faster Flying Magical Beast for transportation, the three of them finally found the Heavenly Star Mountain Range.
"Hmm... it should be around here."
The aura of Dou Zong... Without Venerable Feng, the overall strength of the Starfall Pavilion is indeed not strong.
Moreover, from the outside, it's impossible to tell that this is Sect; it just looks like an ordinary, monotonous forest.
However, all three possessed exceptionally strong soul perception, easily seeing through the Starfall Pavilion's disguise.
Who dares to visit my Starfall Pavilion!
Several Dou Zong-level auras soared into the air, arriving menacingly before Sun Buxiao and his companions. Clearly, they knew that the Starfall Pavilion's Starfall Grand Array couldn't conceal its power from these experts, so they took the initiative to meet the enemy.
"I am Sun Buxiao, the Sect Master the Heavenly Poison Gate. I have come here to search for an old friend. I wonder if Venerable Feng is currently in the pavilion?"
Sun Buxiao politely cupped his hands in greeting. Because he looked respectable and was wearing a White Robe, he gave people a somewhat "gentle and welcoming" feeling.
"Heavenly Poison Gate?"
An Elders from the Starfall Pavilion frowned.
I don't think I've ever heard of any power in Central Plains with that name.
However, the auras of the three people before them were...
The women on both sides were alright; judging from their auras, they were around Three-Star Dou Zong and five- Dou Zong respectively. If a real fight broke out, there should be Elders within the Sect who could rival them.
But before the senses of the person in the middle could even reach Sun Buxiao, he sensed an extremely dangerous aura.
This feeling seemed to be telling him, "Don't make a move, or you'll definitely die."
Cold sweat involuntarily appeared on his forehead. Even though he looked down on this so-called "Heavenly Poison Gate," he dared not underestimate the three powerful figures in front of him, and could only cup his hands in a gesture of respect.
"Excuse me, the three of you, the Pavilion Master is not currently in the Pavilion. May I ask who you are...?"
He's not here... which is somewhat expected.
"Since you're not here, we won't bother you any longer. But could you allow me to leave a trace of my presence here? I have something very important to discuss with Venerable Feng."
Sun Buxiao raised his hand, and a wisp of soul energy mixed with a faint white flame ignited in his palm.
The Elders of the Starfall Pavilion exchanged glances, and finally the one with the strongest aura nodded.
"The Pavilion Master returns at least once a year. Is there anything you wish to convey to us?"
Sun Buxiao took out a Jade Token that he had prepared beforehand and swiped Yao Lao's soul aura and this wisp of Bone Spirit Cold Flame into it, while also swiping his own soul aura into it.
"When you see Venerable Feng, please give him this Jade Token. He can find my location by relying on my soul aura."
"This matter is of utmost importance, as it relates to Venerable Feng has been searching for all these years. Please, everyone... be sure to deliver it to Venerable Feng."
