"Speaking of which, Little Dragon has a matter to ask Your Majesty's advice," said Long Wang, bowing respectfully.

The Jade Emperor blinked in surprise: "What matter is this?"

"May I ask, Your Majesty, is our world on the verge of chaos—earth, water, fire, and wind unraveling—with imminent destruction?" asked Long Wang.

At these words, the grand hall fell utterly silent, not even a pin could drop.

"Imminent destruction?"

"Impossible. Long Wang, have you heard rumors from that Great Luo cultivator?"

Only Buddha and the Jade Emperor remained calm, as if they had long known, utterly composed.

"Indeed, it is true," said the Jade Emperor without evasion, bluntly: "But we need not worry—Heaven itself will act. From my calculations, though this crisis is great, its resolution is easy."

"There truly is an imminent destruction?"

"Thank goodness Heaven will act—otherwise it would be disastrous."

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea sighed bitterly: "The difficulty of resolving this crisis is indeed minimal—it only requires sacrificing my daughter and the reincarnation of Hou Yi."

The Jade Emperor recoiled: "That Dao Jun even calculated this?"

Even I could not calculate so precisely.

In my calculations, I could only discern that the Three Realms faced a crisis—and that it could be resolved.

As for the exact method, I had no clue whatsoever.

Buddha was equally stunned.

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea: "Indeed. Your Majesty and the Buddha may meet the Dao Jun if you wish. The Dao Jun has already agreed to intervene and quell the chaos of earth, water, fire, and wind in our world, allowing it to survive the crisis. This is the opportunity!"

The Dragon King of the East Sea said, "Indeed so. If Your Majesty and the Buddha wish to meet the Dao Lord, it is not impossible. The Dao Lord has already agreed, willing to act to settle the earth, water, fire, and wind of our world, letting the world

The Jade Emperor and Buddha rejoiced.

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea: "Correct. But first, we must offer sacrifice to Heaven, clearly stating the Dao Jun's purpose. The Dao Jun has said he does not wish to destroy our world in the process."

The Jade Emperor solemnly said: "Naturally. Bring forth the incense altar—perform the sacrifice to Heaven."

While the Jade Emperor prepared the altar, Long Wang of the Eastern Sea opened the chat group.

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea: "Dao Jun, I am now performing the sacrifice to Heaven—are you free? 【Red Envelope】"

%Group%8+2}②>Six*9? Eight"Five(①"Six- Su Xiao: "Long Wang is truly generous—he just paid eight billion points."

Yang Jian: "About right. This is hiring a Great Luo Xian to act."

Yang Jian: "Indeed. The Dao Jun is going to quell an entire world—his fee must not be stingy."

【Ding, Zhang Taixuan claimed the red envelope.】

Zhang Taixuan: "I'm always free. After I calm the earth, water, fire, and wind in your world, I'll give you a surprise."

Su Xiao: "A surprise? What is it?"

Du Bingyan: "Can a surprise still be a surprise if you say it out loud?"

Ji Yanran: "Exactly. The Dao Jun certainly won't tell us now."

Xiao Mai: "Xiao Mai wants to know too!"

Ye Hei: "This surprise is meant for Long Wang—surely it benefits the dragon race? Could the Dao Jun be solving the dragon bloodline problem?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Ye Tian Di, as always, is brilliant."

Ye Hei said, "This surprise is aimed at the Dragon King, it must surely be beneficial to the Dragon race, right? Could it be that the Dao Lord intends to resolve the issue of the Dragon race's bloodline?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Since someone guessed it, I'll say it plainly: I will create a Dragon Transformation Pool for Long Wang, specifically to purify the dragon bloodline. Then, every dragon will become a genius—ten true dragons can fully restore the Water Element's law."

Hu Yifei: "Ten true dragons to restore the Water Element? How high is Little Dragon Girl's dragon bloodline?"

Zhang Taixuan: "It's different. Little Dragon Girl isn't merely a dragon—she's also a pawn of Heaven's Dao. She can restore the law alone because of Heaven's will. Others lack this advantage."

back then, every member of the Dragon race was a genius; ten True Dragons alone could complete the Water-element Laws."

Su Xiao: "Why didn't Taixuan Brother create the Dragon Transformation Pool earlier? Then, even if you didn't intervene to calm earth, water, fire, and wind, the dragons could solve it themselves. With the pool, the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace could surely gather ten true dragons, right?"

Ye Hei: "I guessed it—probably Heaven forbids it."

Hu Yifei: "Indeed. The dragon bloodline's degeneration is part of Heaven's evolution. It means this world simply cannot bear so many genius dragons. Moreover, the current world is already in chaos—once the Dragon Transformation Pool appears, Heaven will punish it."

Su Xiao: "Right, I forgot again!"

Han Paopao: "Su Xiao, you're not forgetting—you're just too reckless. Long Wang's world is fragile; Heaven won't let you mess around."

Xiao Mai: "I learned something new."

Zhang Taixuan: "Actually, you could solve it your way, Su Xiao. Place the Dragon Transformation Pool in Tai Xuan Realm, let Long Wang send selected dragons to transform, then return to restore the law. But then—who must sacrifice? All are his own descendants; wouldn't the old Dragon King grieve?"

Hu Yifei said, "Indeed, the degeneration of the Dragon race's bloodline is a process of the Heavenly Dao's evolution. This shows that that realm of heaven and earth simply could not bear the emergence of so many genius members of the Dragon race. What's more,

Zhang Taixuan: "So why sacrifice ten lives when you can solve it without harming anyone?"

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea: "Dao Jun is merciful. Thank you for considering the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace. If I had to sacrifice ten dragons, I'd be torn apart."

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "I recall many beasts can transform into dragons by consuming dragon blood or bodily fluids—is a true dragon really that rare?"

Long Wang of the Eastern Sea: "Hmm, Great Sage, you're right—but those aren't true dragons, not even hybrid dragons. Otherwise, would our Dragon Palace still struggle with reproduction?"

Long Gong: "Those dragons are called 'Vegetable Dragons'—regulars at the Jade Pool Banquet. They have dragon shapes, raised with rare treasures by Immortal Officials, taste exquisite, but possess no spiritual powers, no awakened intellect. They're not dragons at all—more like an entirely unrelated species."

Then so be it. But who, then, is to be sacrificed? They are all offspring of the Long Gong—does the Long Wang not grieve for them?"

Su Xiao: "True."

Zhang Taixuan: "So why, if a solution can be found without harming a single soul, must ten lives be sacrificed?"

Eastern Sea Long Wang: "Your Divine Lord, you are merciful. Thank you for considering the welfare of the Eastern Sea Long Gong. If I truly had to sacrifice ten dragons, it would be an unbearable dilemma."

Great Sage Equaling Heaven: "I recall many beasts, upon consuming dragon blood or other bodily fluids, can transform into dragons. Are true dragons really so rare?"

Eastern Sea Long Wang: "Hmm, Great Sage, you speak truly. But those are not true dragons—not even hybrid dragons. Otherwise, would my Long Gong still struggle with reproduction?"

Eastern Sea Long Gong: "Those dragons are called 'vegetable dragons,' regular guests at the Yaochi Grand Banquet. Though they bear dragon form and are fed with all manner of rare treasures by celestial officials, their flesh is exquisite, yet they possess no divine powers, no 【60】 spiritual awareness. They are less dragons than an entirely different species, unrelated to the dragon lineage."

Spiritual intelligence. More like a completely unrelated species than a dragon.

373 Qi Tian Da Sheng: "So that's it. That's a farmed dragon!"

East Sea Long Wang: "The method of breeding this farmed dragon was developed by our dragon ancestors in their research into dragon reproduction. It was ultimately deemed useless and stored away in Long Gong. Later,"

it was accidentally acquired by a human cultivator and presented to the Heavenly Court. That's how the Heavenly Court came to have dragon liver and phoenix marrow."

Su Xiao: "No way—so the Heavenly Court's dragon liver and phoenix marrow are fake?"

East Sea Long Wang: "What else would they be? The Banquet of the Jade Pool is held often—if they ate real dragons, where would they get enough? 【shrugs】"

Du Bingyan: "Does Long Wang have no thoughts on this matter?"

Ji Yanran: "Indeed. When one's kind suffers, others feel the sorrow. When the rabbit dies, the fox grieves."

East Sea Long Wang: "None. I've said it already—this farmed dragon is not of our dragon bloodline at all, merely similar in appearance, like the ginseng fruit and humans. Old Long Wang—"

I've eaten the flesh of farmed dragons myself. I must say, it truly is delicious."

Su Xiao: "Whoa—you eat dragon kind!"

Ye Hei: "I'm dying laughing—you're saying Long Wang is a cannibal among dragons?"

Su Xiao: "Exactly."

East Sea Long Wang: "The sacrifice is complete. Heaven has no objections. My lord, may we begin?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Then let us begin."
