Chapter 107

They landed on the ground, and an ancient and desolate aura rushed over them, as if they had returned to before the primordial age.

The space here is vast, boundless, endless, hard to see the end; rather than saying it's underground, it's more like another world.

"Just as you said, there really is a structure here." The Yaochi Holy Maiden spoke.

Not far ahead lay a collapsed ancient building, ruined beyond recognition.

They approached and, amidst the ruins, discovered a place resembling an altar.

The big black dog was utterly shocked; he had seen this altar before, exactly like the one in the Cloud-Break Mountain Range! Unfortunately, this altar is dim and lifeless, its materials long devoid of energy, unknown how many ages have passed.

"Great Emperor's formation lines!"

The big black dog's heart pounded, his huge face almost touching the ground, he was extremely excited, almost howling like ghosts and wolves.

"Indeed, it was left by a Great Emperor." Duan De was startled by him and also stepped forward.

The big black dog widened his eyes, rubbing the patterns with his paw: "If I could fathom even a tenth or twelfth of it, I'd benefit for life!"

His mouth stretched back to his ears, he spent considerable time copying these patterns.

"This was left by an ancient emperor."

Yang Zhu merely glanced at it and drew that conclusion; he walked through the ruins and soon found some clues.

"How do you know?" Duan De frowned; it's common knowledge that formation lines left by ancient emperors are hard for non-emperors to comprehend.

"Just a guess."

Yang Zhu didn't want to explain further, he made a large circuit and returned to the five-color altar.

He stepped onto it and found that the surrounding ancient buildings seemed chaotic, yet they were divided into five sections, each corresponding to the five-color altar.

"Indeed..."

Yang Zhu wasn't surprised; wherever a five-color altar appears, the surrounding terrain is usually similar.

Not to mention the Wanlong Nest being like this; even the entire Big Dipper is a gigantic "five-color altar."

After a brief pause, they left and headed toward the Wanlong Nest.

There, dragon energy surged like endless rivers; nine large caverns stood side by side, gleaming, as if nine great dragons coiled.

The interiors of the nine dragon caves are interconnected, all leading to one place; they entered and were bathed in dragon energy, feeling completely refreshed.

"What scent, why so fragrant?" The big black dog twitched his nose, catching another whiff of medicinal aroma.

They continued for over ten li, arriving at a place riddled with stone caves, resembling a beehive, and were instantly stunned.

The nine dragon caves lead forward to a massive nest; viewed from afar, divine light radiates, and inside there must be astonishing divine sources.

This place is precisely the Wanlong Nest!

When they were still a few li from the Wanlong Nest, they halted, daring not to go further.

"Damn, it's truly an ancient creature, and a royal one at that!"

From far away, they could faintly see many supreme divine sources floating within the ancient caverns, sealing ancient creatures inside.

Although Yang Zhu had already informed them of the situation and they had braced themselves, when they actually faced it, they were still deeply shocked.

Ancient creatures are inherently powerful and terrifying, let alone royal ones—they're on a whole different level! "It smells amazing; that spirit medicine must be inside!"

The refreshing fragrance enticed them; the big black dog kept swallowing saliva, certain that this spirit medicine is certainly no inferior to a holy medicine.

In this era, heaven and earth have undergone tremendous change; holy medicines have long been extinct, making it hard to find even a single stalk.

"I see it..."

Yang Zhu opened his divine eye, pierced the void, and saw a stalk of spirit medicine outside the Wanlong Nest. "Woof! Truly a primordial holy medicine!"

Both the big black dog and Duan De employed their means and finally discovered that holy medicine as well.

Outside the Wanlong Nest, where all dragon energy flows in, this holy medicine shines brilliantly, entirely golden, over a foot tall, bearing nine leaves.

Each leaf resembles a golden cloud; at the top of this primordial holy medicine sits a dragon-shaped fruit, horns prominent, claws bared, lifelike, as if it could revive at any moment.

In the mouth of the golden little dragon clutches a dragon pearl, crystal clear and splendid, its refreshing fragrance almost intoxicating.

"Nourished by the Wanlong dragon energy, it absorbed countless essences to grow."

The Yaochi Holy Maiden was also shocked; she had never seen such a holy medicine before.

"Too dangerous, otherwise it would be great if we could pluck it."

Duan De regretted it; unfortunately, that holy medicine grows too close to the Wanlong Nest, and any misstep would awaken the ancient creatures inside.

"I came here precisely for this."

Yang Zhu's eyes burst with light; the Ice Snow Palace entourage—his goal is precisely this true dragon holy medicine!

If there's anything in this world that could most interest Yang Zhu, it would be the ultimate Dao imperial weapons and the immortality medicine.

The immortality medicine has miraculous effects; some can even let a person live another life, and even a Great Emperor cannot resist its temptation.

Nearly every Great Emperor possesses a stalk of immortality medicine, almost becoming their standard equipment.

"You wait here; if anything goes wrong, immediately activate the Divine Light Platform and leave."

As Yang Zhu was about to step forward, the Yaochi Holy Maiden grabbed his arm.

She looked at Yang Zhu, didn't stop him, and finally said, "Be careful; I'll wait for you."

"Don't worry, this place can't hold me."

Yang Zhu smiled faintly, as if possessing a special charm that inexplicably put the other at ease.

The Wanlong Nest is vast; just through one corner, one can see massive divine sources ebbing and flowing, sealing powerful ancient creature royals inside.

Yang Zhu's word technique has reached a sublime level; in the blink of an eye, he arrived before the Wanlong Nest.

His body merged with the Dao, almost vanishing, without the slightest ripple leaking out.

The big black dog and others held their breath, hearts in their throats, daring not to make a sound, lest they disturb the ancient creatures and plunge Yang Zhu into danger.

Yang Zhu stood before the enormous nest; compared to the Wanlong Nest before him, his body was minuscule, like a speck of dust.

Yet his eyes were firm, without a trace of fear, instead a faint killing intent seeped out.

A golden giant hand reached out and, in one grasp, pulled up the True Dragon Immortal Medicine by its roots, leaving it no chance to escape.

Boom! Almost the instant the True Dragon Divine Medicine was pulled up, something seemed to awaken inside the Myriad Dragon Nest, and boundless killing intent surged like a tide! Light flickered in the ancient cavern, ancient coffins rose and fell, emanating endless murderous intent.

A piercing shriek rose from within the Myriad Dragon Nest, shrill to the extreme, chilling the soul; far away, the Black Emperor and Duan De's hair stood on end, they were terrified beyond measure.

A towering killing intent swept in, as if it could crush this world, making everyone's scalp go numb.

Yang Zhu stood outside the Myriad Dragon Nest, feeling this killing intent head-on, yet he was unafraid.

"Hah!"

Instead, he let out a cold snort, his mighty aura sweeping forth; accompanied by a low rumbling sound, over a dozen huge divine sources were shattered by his shout! Boom! In an instant, the ancient creatures inside broke free, charging out with towering rage, making the entire space tremble.
