The three forces came from different directions, deliberately keeping a great distance apart. This was not only to avoid conflict along the way, but also to prevent falling into some of Liu Yu's spatial magic array traps.
As the longest-lived Evening Elephant thousand years, who knows how many spatial arrays he has mastered? Moreover, he can find and control the East Sea Dragon King. Perhaps he has been here before. Although this idea sounds incredible, it is indeed very possible given the current situation.
Liu Yu has most likely mastered some spatial formations within the East Sea. If they are not careful, multiple forces could be trapped inside, potentially leading to betrayal and mutual attrition. This is what they most need to avoid.
All three factions are intelligent and immediately realized this, so they deliberately kept a great distance from each other and were extremely vigilant about any spatial fluctuations!
Each household was patient, conducting a slow and deliberate search, advancing gradually, waiting for the other force to approach at a parallel pace, never acting rashly or becoming the first to act. Under this mutual vigilance, it took them an hour to approach the target location.
As they drew nearer, everyone became puzzled.
Because their investigation revealed no signs of any spatial magic array, everything was perfectly stable. It was as if the other party was opening a door and waiting for them to pass through. What exactly was Liu Yu planning to do?
" Baifeng, look!"
The first to arrive were the Chen Household family members, who were closest to the center. As the most powerful, they occupied the central position and were the first to see the floating Dragon King!
"It's the East Sea Dragon King!" Several patriarchs of the Chen Household were extremely excited. This oppressive aura was real, and it wasn't an illusion; the old Dragon King was truly here.
"Grandpa, is this true?" Chen Baifeng suppressed his excitement and asked cautiously.
"There's no mistake!" The Chen Household's patriarch exclaimed excitedly as he looked at the floating dragon. "Such a massive Thousand Net Threads —no one but the Dragon King could wield it!"
"Every ten thousand years, the four seas hold a marriage alliance, and many outstanding dragon maidens marry into other seas. They also possess the Thousand Luo Secret Techniques. However, the East Sea still boasts an underwater environment that the other three seas can never match. The East Sea Dragon King deserves at least half the credit for this!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Baifeng observed that it was indeed as the ancestors had described: countless intricate Thousand Net Threads of life were descending upon the East Sea Thousand Net Threads, a power that could alter the very quality of the world, truly astonishing.
Before long, Xiao Mingyue and Gu Ying, who had been hiding in the shadows, also appeared in the vicinity.
Gazing at the floating Dragon King and the countless Thousand Net Threads, their eyes were filled with awe and greed!
"Humans!!"
A deep voice came from above, causing the various forces to pause slightly. Looking up, they discovered several unfamiliar figures above, dressed in magnificent clothes, with dragon heads and human bodies, giving off an air of great significance.
But his breathing was very weak, extremely weak, and his face was so pale that it seemed as if he would shatter at the slightest touch!
"They are nobles from the Dragon Palace!" The eldest ancestor of the Chen Household was even more shocked, his expression filled with extreme vigilance.
" Dragon Palace nobles?" Chen Baifeng looked at the dragon people. Their clothes and temperament were indeed extraordinary, but he could not sense any dragon aura on them!
"There's no mistake, the one leading the group is Ao Bo, the Third Elder of the East Sea, and standing next to him is Ao Yun, the Second Princess of the East Sea!"
"Oh?" Chen Baifeng paused upon hearing this, then stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, seniors."
Ao Bo, the leader of the " Dragon King Breed," nodded slightly. "Human, you are very fortunate to have successfully Dragon Transformation and become a member of the royal family of my East Sea Dragon Palace. From now on, you will bear the surname Ao, and your family will also benefit from this, becoming nobles of the Dragon Palace!"
Chen Baifeng smiled and said, "Thank you, senior."
Seeing that the Chen Household remained unmoved, the group's expressions turned grim.
"You need to think this through. My Dragon Palace has indeed encountered some troubles, but it has existed since ancient Dragon Palace, and the storms it has faced far exceed your imagination. Now that it is about to be revived, do you really want to give up your bright future and become our enemy?"
Chen Baifeng glanced at the floating Dragon King, then at the pale-faced nobles of the Dragon Palace, his eyes filled with thought, "May I ask, senior, where is Liu Yu?"
"What Liu Yu?" Ao Bo asked, frowning.
The Chen Household all looked at the dragons in front of them. Although they were extremely weak, their arrogance was still evident in their eyes. Clearly, given their attitude, they should not be subordinate to Liu Yu!
But the Dragon King was indeed being controlled. They were certain that the Dragon King was currently frozen in ice, and it was absolutely wrong for him to release his dragon might at this time to attract external enemies!
Behind this, it must be controlled by Liu Yu, but it seems that these nobles are unaware of it.
"You must leave immediately!" Princess Ao Yun spoke up from the side, "Once the Dragon Palace is successfully revived, you will surely receive many favors. If you linger any longer, you will be killed without mercy!"
"Looks like you're really in a hurry," Chen Baifeng said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the group of the Dragon Palace nobles darkened, for they could see that these lowly humans had no intention of leaving; they actually intended to seize the Dragon King!
What a pipe dream!!!
Ao Yun stepped forward, countless corals began to move as if alive, transforming into vine-like spikes, densely packed like a rain of pear blossoms. The first to be affected, the Chen Household family's patriarch, immediately revealed his true form, transforming into a giant dragon turtle to block his path.
The tortoise shell was rough and thick. With the dragon blood activated, a massive amount of earth element gathered at the tortoise shell, forming a mountain-like barrier in front of the Chen Household!
But soon the mountain collapsed. Those spike-like things, with their tips gleaming with blinding golden sunlight, exploded the moment they touched the thick tortoise shell. The terrifying force instantly shattered the shell, and the towering Chen Da screamed and howled in agony!
In less than a few breaths, the enormous tortoise had more than half of its body blown away, a truly horrific scene!
The Chen Household immediately retreated in fright, mainly because this power was too terrifying. The Laoda son, Dragon Transformation, possessed the bloodline of a top-tier dragon turtle, one of the nine sons of the dragon, with the body of Baxia. His defensive power was at least among the top five below that of a true dragon. They had all witnessed it with their own eyes back then. With his bloodline activated, even the most powerful Dragon Crystal cannons in the Dragon Palace would take half a day to open a crack in this thing. It was extremely difficult to deal with.
Unexpectedly, Princess Ao Yun couldn't even last ten breaths against her. If that weapon were to hit them, wouldn't they be instantly blasted to pieces?
"Run"
Chen Da Chen's face was contorted with pain and a bitter smile of resentment. He had thought he had finally made it through and would live a glorious life of at least 100,000 years. He never expected that his greed would lead to this end. He was filled with regret, but since things had come to this point, he could only hope that as many Chen Household as possible could escape!
"Go!" the remaining members of the Chen Household shouted immediately, clearly intending to flee at once.
But Chen Baifeng, who was in the lead, did not move. Instead of retreating, he took a few steps closer to the already shattered Chen Da.
"What are you doing? Get out of here!"
Chen Da was extremely anxious. The first Dragon King Breed of the Chen Household was incredibly precious. Even though the Dragon Palace had already tried to kill them, once they survived the crisis, with Baifeng's pure bloodline, there was a very high chance that he would be pardoned and invited back to the Dragon Palace. He himself was beyond saving now, but he absolutely could not afford to lose Baifeng!
But Chen Baifeng ignored the advice and walked to the side of the ancestor. Suddenly, his eyes flashed with a blue light, and then something strange happened: the corals stopped moving!
Ao Yun the spell in the distance, turned even paler and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The elder next to him changed his expression and immediately helped him up!
"I see." Chen Baifeng immediately smiled, "The seniors are so weak?"
Princess Ao Yun's power was like thunder, and her attack was earth-shattering. She was obviously trying to scare them away. He knew the technique she used, which was called "All Things in Creation of the World". It activated the Spirit Energy corals on the seabed and used the billions of corals unique to the East Sea Dragon Palace as weapons. It was the top secret technique of the East Sea Dragon Palace!
However, this method is powerful but also consumes a lot of resources. The opponent started with a trump card, clearly intending to press their advantage in one fell swoop. This indirectly showed that the opponent could not last long, and indeed it did.
The Dragon Palace nobles who rushed to protect the Dharma were in very bad shape.
He was certain that Liu Yu was behind it, and he understood Liu Yu's plan. If these nobles were completely liberated, they would be no match for them. Only by liberating them in this way, so that the two sides were evenly matched, could they possibly achieve the effect of attrition.
But what intrigued him was how Liu Yu had managed to do it.
Seeing this from a distance, Chen Qing was also curious and asked the weakened Dragon Palace nobles, "Did you release them?"
Liu Yu laughed and said, "Who else could it be?"
"The minimum amount of blood and qi injected barely awakens them, yet leaves them with insufficient blood and qi. It's a good method, but I'm very curious," Chen Qing asked doubtfully, "Even to awaken them to this extent, high-quality Transcendent blood and qi are required. Where did you obtain it?"
"Don't you know everything? Why don't you guess for yourself?" Liu Yu said with a smile.
Chen Qing remained silent for a moment before arriving at his answer, "You came to the Dragon Palace a long time ago and also visited the laboratory in the Extreme Abyss of the Heavenly Dragon Palace. You've been collecting the essence blood of those terrifying creatures for a long time? That shouldn't be the case. Those terrifying creatures are all controlled at the gate of the Transcendent. Unless you open the magic array link, you can't let them break through to the Transcendent. But once you open it, it will definitely alarm the people of the Heavenly Dragon Palace. Judging from the attitude of the Third Prince Ao Xin, he probably hasn't seen you before."
"Then where did I get my blood from?" Liu Yu looked at Chen Qing with a mocking smile.
He desperately wanted to know if this being, who was like his ancestor, truly knew everything in the world.
Chen Qing frowned, deep in thought. He had a premonition that Liu Yu's awakening of the nobles' blood essence was a terrible conspiracy, and once it broke out, something horrible would happen!
