Chapter 362: Finally becoming the Dragon Emperor, Dao techniques perfected, I am called Yun Tiandao
The gloomy seawater was boundless; even when a gale blew across it, not a single ripple was produced.
The heavy water of the Sea of Sin was like a slab of black iron. The clouds were also black; the entire world lacked even a glimmer of light.
Above the boundary of the Sea of Sin, ten suns rotated forward, with massive hurricanes swirling around them, as if the suns had stirred up a storm.
As the ten suns and hurricanes advanced, the black clouds retreated continuously, and the coastline finally became distinct.
Twenty-four Solar Term Tokens were lined up in a row, as if forming a coastline in the sky.
A golden giant dragon appeared behind the sky coastline, with a pale golden stone slab above it.
Following closely was a second giant dragon, with a flag planted on it, embroidered with the Eastern Emperor's golden script "Xiu".
More dragon ships and giant dragons appeared at the edge of the Sea of Sin; the speed at which the black clouds were dispersed accelerated, and the seawater began to ripple.
Apart from the sound of the rippling seawater, there was no other noise in the sky.
The massive dragon battle formation was silent and orderly, seemingly more oppressive than the Dao field of the Sea of Sin.
Suddenly, a small dragon spirit phantom descended onto the dragon ship at the very front.
"Great Dragon Emperor, we have already cleared one-fifth of the Inverse Dragon territory."
"Great Dragon King 'Zhi' is currently engaged in battle with the Inverse Dragons west of the Sea of Sin."
"The 108 【Sea-Stabilizing Needles】 carried by Great Dragon King 'Fu' have already been transported to the designated locations."
"Great Dragon King Hoge has occupied the Sea of Sin's Thunder Longdao. After completing the occupation mission, he is heading to converge at Your Majesty's position. As long as he and Great Dragon King 'Xuanji' arrive, the thirty-six 【Dragon-Slaying Platforms】 can be returned to their positions."
"Additionally, the Fuming Ten Thousand Dragon Formation has completed its preparation stage."
"……"
Yin Xiu reported everything in detail. Even though the Dragon Emperor now had many Great Dragon Kings under his command, Yin Xiu's status as the number one battle general under the Dragon Emperor remained increasingly solid.
This was because he was not only capable in battle but also skilled in commanding troops and strategy, and he was very knowledgeable about all kinds of dragon artifacts.
"Xiu, what other trump cards do you think the Purple Dragon God has?" Zhao Xing was currently in human form, standing on the deck and gazing ahead.
"The ten great kingdoms all have nation-protecting artifacts, each with its own functions. However, except for the artifacts of the Tianhai Kingdom and the Long Yuan Kingdom which we haven't obtained, the artifacts of the other eight kingdoms are already in our hands."
"Eight of the ten great artifacts are already in our possession. Besides the contaminated codex and the Ka artifacts in the Purple Dragon God's hands, could there be anything else we don't know about?"
Yin Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "The Dragon Court era of the Yuan Qi epoch recorded many Demon race artifacts; many are not inferior to Dragon race artifacts, and some are even stronger."
"Perhaps it has obtained several legendary Demon race artifacts."
Zhao Xing nodded slightly. The so-called Demon race artifacts were simply artifacts crafted by the Ka God race.
He speculated that the Purple Dragon God might possess quite a few powerful Star Dao Soldiers (known as Peerless Rarities in the Xuanhuang World).
"He shouldn't have World-Star Dao Soldiers."
"Among the treasures I obtained from the inheritance of Qing Qing Yu Zi, the only one that truly counts as a World-Star Dao Soldier is the 【Star Fortune Strategy】. The Cangwu Top Leaf is only worth as much as a World-Star Dao Soldier; it is not a weapon."
"Star Dao Soldiers are equivalent to Peerless Rarities, and the power of World-Star Dao Soldiers is even greater than that of Star Dao Soldiers. If he had offensive World-Star Dao Soldiers, he wouldn't have waited so long and resorted to schemes."
Without a doubt, World-Star Dao Soldiers were the ceiling of divine weapons in the Xuanhuang World.
Ji Si was able to participate in the confrontation between the Moon God and the Wu Di only because she had obtained the World-Star Dao Soldier 【Star Fortune Strategy】!
If she had relied solely on herself, Ji Si's nine lives would not have been enough.
True World-Star Dao Soldiers were either crafted from materials equivalent to a World-Star or utilized the core origin of a World-Star.
Many World-Star Dao Soldiers required a 【Spell Encapsulation】 to seal their power.
Otherwise, many World-Star Dao Soldiers would cause devastating destruction upon entering another World-Star.
The reason people use weapons is naturally because weapons can harm others. The power of World-Star Dao Soldiers is too great; if encapsulation measures are not taken, even the user themselves could easily be harmed by the World-Star Dao Soldier.
"However, it is not simple to unleash the power of a World-Star Dao Soldier. Those in the Rule Realm can only use Star Dao Soldiers (Peerless Rarities); it is still very difficult to use World-Star Dao Soldiers."
"The Purple Dragon God definitely cannot unleash it; he might as well use a better Star Dao Soldier," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"I will prepare for the worst. Even if he possesses top-grade offensive Star Dao Soldiers, after conquering the nine kingdoms, I also possess many Star Dao Soldiers, such as the 【Dragon-Slaying Platform】, 【Sea-Stabilizing Needle】, 【Fuming Flame Palace】, and 【Mysterious Water Dragon Flag】."
"I also have the Bloodthirsty Long Teng and the Ice Soul Divine Tree as trump cards. If there are any accidents, the Mo Cloud Vine can also serve as a final safeguard."
"Even in the one-in-a-million chance that he has a World-Star Dao Soldier, it doesn't matter."
The reason Zhao Xing was not afraid was that he also possessed an offensive World-Star Dao Soldier.
With a flip of his palm, a thin, purple-black sword appeared in his hand.
Thunder Dharma Sword!
This treasure, obtained from a blind box in the Wu Di's treasure vault, was precisely a World-Star Dao Soldier!
"When I first discovered this dharma sword in the treasure hall, it required spiritual energy to activate, so I took it along to study."
"I didn't expect that this dharma sword actually had a 【Spell Encapsulation】!"
"It was only after unlocking the first layer that I discovered its grade had reached the level of a World-Star Dao Soldier," Zhao Xing recalled the initial discovery.
Since it had a spell encapsulation, it must be a World-Star Dao Soldier.
Because once its first layer of spell seal was unlocked, it possessed power at the level of a "Top-Grade Star Dao Soldier".
Zhao Xing also discovered a second layer of seal, but he was completely unable to unlock it.
This was the reason why those with insufficient cultivation levels could not use World-Star Dao Soldiers.
"The true core of the Thunder Dharma Sword is the hilt."
"On the small hilt, one cannot see any traces of dharma arrays, yet it binds thunderous power equivalent to that of a planet, compressing this thunderous power to the extreme."
Zhao Xing channeled spiritual energy into the dharma sword, and the thin sword immediately grew larger.
From the outside, it looked like a sword; one could not see the appearance of thunder at all. This was due to extreme compression and binding; the thunderous power had completely transformed into another fixed form.
"Grow, grow, grow!"
The thin sword was originally only half a meter long, but after growing larger, thunderous light began to flow across it.
Zhao Xing felt very strained when he drove the thin sword to ten meters in length.
Finally, it reached thirty meters, which was the limit.
"Even with all my strength, I can only make it grow to thirty meters," Zhao Xing's own body size also grew to a hundred meters; this was his limit state.
"I used the first layer of secret techniques to unlock the seal, and it still feels light as a feather in my hand."
"But once placed on the ground, no one can pick it up."
"And it won't crush the dragon ship."
Driving the Thunder Dharma Sword, Zhao Xing couldn't help but think of a certain hammer: "Later, I'll find a divine craftsman to modify the encapsulation method for the first layer of spiritual energy activation."
"Whoever lifts this sword, if recognized by it, will possess the power of thunder."
Just as Zhao Xing was cautiously advancing, in the center of the Sea of Sin, on a vast island.
The Purple Dragon God was also deep in thought. A lightning mark was on the dragon scales of his forehead, and a broken blade, a bead, and a stone slab circled around him.
"For the plan to reach this stage, this person named Zhao Xing really has some ability."
"He broke through to the Rule Realm in the Dragon Court, actually subdued two divine trees, and went to the Heavenly Abyss, successfully taking away the Divine Power Chapter."
"But that's all. Why was the Moon God so cautious?"
The Purple Dragon God did not take Zhao Xing seriously.
Because when he first entered the Dragon Court, Zhao Xing was only in the Life Palace Realm; even if his soul had reached the Rule Realm, it was only the middle stage of the Rule Realm.
Judging from the data on paper, he was lagging behind in every aspect.
The Purple Dragon God was at the perfection of the Rule Realm; theoretically, he should have been crushing everything in the ancient Dragon Court land.
However, the situation had changed drastically within a few decades.
A large number of Great Dragon Kings appeared, and lost Dragon race artifacts emerged one after another, such as the 【Dragon-Slaying Platform】, 【Mysterious Water Dragon Flag】, 【Fuming Flame Palace】, etc., all of which were nation-protecting artifacts.
In addition, the strength of the Dragon race under Zhao Xing grew too fast. At first, the only Great Dragon King worth his attention was the one named 'Yin Xiu'.
Gradually, more Dragon race members entered his field of vision, and with the coordination of artifacts, they grew to a level capable of threatening him.
"Did the Moon God miscalculate something?" The Purple Dragon God reviewed this trip to the ancient Dragon Court land in his mind, filled with doubts. "If I had started the decapitation operation as soon as I entered the Dragon Court, perhaps I could have caught Zhao Xing and killed him. Why bother planning until now and setting the location at the Sea of Sin?"
Now that those Great Dragon Kings were working together, they could cause him trouble, mainly due to the coordination of various dharma arrays and Dragon race artifacts.
But at the beginning, even if they were Great Dragon Kings, he could have easily slaughtered them.
"I am at the perfection of the Rule Realm, carrying the top-grade Star Dao Soldier 'Ka God Bead', and I have obtained one of the Dragon Emperor's codices."
"The Moon God even bestowed upon me a 'Desolate Land Talisman' and told me to follow the plan, endure, and retreat to the Sea of Sin location before attempting the kill. Any other situation would be a waste of effort."
"What exactly is it for? What other trump cards does he have?" The Purple Dragon God was very confused. "Even if he obtained a World-Star Dao Soldier from Qing Qing Yu Zi, he wouldn't be able to unleash its power with his strength. Even I cannot unleash the power of a World-Star Dao Soldier."
After pondering for a long time, the Purple Dragon God finally concluded that the Moon God's arrangement was suitable for the kill, and any other situation would lead to Zhao Xing's escape.
"However, he is indeed quite unique," the Purple Dragon God recalled his experiences over the years. "At least in terms of understanding the Dragon race, no one among the humans is more formidable than him. He manipulates Yin Xiu to conquer from behind the scenes; he is not a prophet, but he surpasses a prophet."
"Even I didn't know that the Dragon Court actually had a treasure like the Mysterious Water Dragon Flag. Not only did he know, but he also found it."
"He even managed to set up the lost Fuming Ten Thousand Dragon Formation. There are thirty-six Dragon-Slaying Platforms? That's right, from the Yuan Qi epoch to Fang Jie, there were thirty-six generations of Dragon Emperors, so there should be thirty-six platforms."
From the initial contempt to the present, decades later, the Purple Dragon God's impression of Zhao Xing had changed significantly; of course, this did not refer to his strength.
"Cautious, knowledgeable, intelligent, and patient, although his strength is inferior to mine," the Purple Dragon God, like Zhao Xing, believed that his strength absolutely crushed the opponent.
It was just that he trusted the Moon God's judgment absolutely, which was why he obediently followed the plan and retreated to the Sea of Sin.
"The key to unifying the Dragon Court is to kill Zhao Xing."
"As long as he is killed, the ten kingdoms of today will be within my grasp."
History is written by the victors; by then, he would no longer be an Inverse Dragon, but the true Dragon Emperor.
"Your Majesty, the enemy army has begun to attack the Sea of Sin, and the Inverse Dragon territory is perishing step by step," a Great Dragon King 'Ze' appeared on Longdao to report to the Purple Dragon God.
The Inverse Dragon territory was reinforced by countless Inverse Dragons capable of using domains, extending the time, range, and domain intensity.
The reinforcement of generation after generation of Inverse Dragons made this area of the Sea of Sin reach an effect like a Dao field.
Of course, it was not a true Dao field after all. Now that Zhao Xing was attacking with the power of ten kingdoms, the speed of erasure was also very fast.
Great Dragon King 'Ze' estimated that at this speed, in just half a year, the Inverse Dragon territory of the Sea of Sin would cease to exist, and the barrier protecting the Inverse Dragons would vanish.
"Just retreat to Longdao."
"Your Majesty, a large number of clansmen will die this way."
"Execute the order!"
The Purple Dragon God's eyes were cold; he did not take the other Dragon race members to heart.
Because he identified himself as the Purple Dragon God of the Southern Barbarians, not the Dragon Court.
"Yes," Ze could only obey helplessly.
…………
Three months later, the inner sea of the Sea of Sin, near the central area.
The Inverse Great Dragon King 'Ze' was roaring in the sky.
Around him were more than three hundred dragon kings, swimming in the sky together, seemingly trying to flee, but they could not escape this area of the world no matter what.
The water curtain in the sky was like an indestructible cage, trapping them completely.
"Your Majesty, Ze is a Chiwen; he is naturally gifted with water, and the power of his innate secret technique is comparable to a top-tier seventh-rotation dharma spell."
"But under the confinement of the Mysterious Water Dragon Flag, it is difficult for him to escape," Yin Xiu stood beside Zhao Xing. "One hundred Qimeng Dragon Kings controlling the Mysterious Water Dragon Flag are enough to kill Ze and his subordinates."
The Mysterious Water Dragon Flag was not just one; the mother flag was held by the Green Leaf Dragon King, while the one hundred Qimeng Dragon Kings controlled the sub-flags, waving them from different directions.
Qimeng were dragon-headed and human-bodied, also gifted with water; the water domain formed by the waving dragon flags completely trapped Ze and his subordinates.
"Once Ze dies, the Inverse Dragons of the Sea of Sin will be unable to make a comeback; only the Purple Dragon God will remain," Zhao Xing looked toward a dragon island ahead.
Attacking the Sea of Sin with the power of ten kingdoms, Zhao Xing's advantage was too great. The Purple Dragon God had violently killed Great Dragon King 'Ji' to rule the Long Yuan and Tianhai kingdoms, leaving him with little time to prepare for war, and not all Dragon race members were willing to be ruled by Inverse Dragons.
Therefore, in the confrontation of soldiers and generals, the support received by Zhao Xing, the orthodox Dragon Emperor, was far beyond what the Purple Dragon God could compare to.
Zhao Xing's development was not just a hundred times that of the Purple Dragon God, but a ten-fold gap certainly existed.
"The only uncertain factor is the Purple Dragon God."
"If he runs away, taking the remaining codex with him, I will be unable to lift the ban on the ancient Dragon Court land and will be unable to bring the Dragon race of the ancient Dragon Court land out to gather into the Great Zhou's national fortune."
In Zhao Xing's plan, obtaining the remaining codex parts was the primary goal; of course, it would be best if he could kill the Purple Dragon God as well.
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Xing unfolded the Dragon Court Codex and ordered the Dragon army.
"Activate the Fuming Ten Thousand Dragon Formation!"
"Deploy the Sea-Stabilizing Needles!"
"Operate the Fuming Flame Palace!"
"Dragon-Slaying Platforms, merge!"
"……"
Order after order was passed down. Centered on the Sea of Sin Longdao, within a radius of a million miles, the entire world changed color.
The water level of the Sea of Sin dropped rapidly, like a receding tide; in less than a day, the seabed was exposed.
The Sea of Sin Longdao became a mountain peak!
The Fuming Ten Thousand Dragon Formation was a ship formation. There were ten thousand treasure-grade dragon ships, each with a thousand City Lord-level and a hundred Overlord-level beings, and every ten ships had a Dragon King stationed on them.
Thirty-six Great Dragon Kings appeared, clutching mountain-like Dragon-Slaying Platforms. The thirty-six platforms merged into one, finally forming a complete 【Dragon-Slaying Platform】, which reached the level of a top-grade Star Dao Soldier after the merger.
The Great Dragon Kings each occupied a position, and a dragon scale flew up from each of them, forming a giant guillotine above the Dragon-Slaying Platform.
Any remaining Inverse Dragons would be sucked onto the Dragon-Slaying Platform and then executed.
The Flame Palace became another line of defense for the Ten Thousand Dragon Formation.
At this moment, the Sea of Sin turned into a sea of fire; not a single dragon would be let out.
However, just at this moment—
A dazzling seven-colored light suddenly erupted from the dragon island in the Sea of Sin.
"Boom!!"
"Boom~"
The world changed drastically, and the seven-colored light expanded, soon revealing a phantom of a dragon city.
The Fuming Flame Palace, Mysterious Water Dragon Flag, and Dragon-Slaying Platform all responded from afar.
Flames built the city walls, and the divine needles pushed aside the seawater to build the foundation.
The Mysterious Water Dragon Flag and Dragon-Slaying Platform projected light onto the ground, forming mysterious secret patterns.
The secret patterns converged in the center, and a Dragon God statue rose from the ground.
In the hearts of the Dragon race, the Dragon God was the Ancestor Dragon.
"The Dragon God Arena?!" Yin Xiu was extremely shaken.
"I didn't expect to see it appear in my lifetime." Yin Xiu was incredibly excited. As an inheritor of the Eastern Emperor's golden script, he knew many secrets, and at this moment, the legendary Dragon God Arena had appeared!
The current layout was very similar to the 【Dragon Emperor Arena】 set up by the Dragon God in the ancient times!
At this moment, all the Dragon race members fell silent.
Whether they were the orthodox Dragon race of the ten kingdoms or the remaining Inverse Dragons, they all stopped fighting at this moment.
Yin Xiu, Yin Li, Hoge, and other Great Dragon Kings also couldn't help but retreat to the side and prostrate themselves on the ground.
"Pay respects to the Dragon God!"
Countless voices rose, kneeling toward the Dragon God phantom in the sky.
At the same time, the Purple Dragon God also flew out from the island.
He looked at Zhao Xing from afar.
"Zhao Xing, in ancient times, the Dragon Emperor was also born from the Arena. This is the final step to becoming the Dragon Emperor," the Purple Dragon God stared at Zhao Xing.
"I used the last drop of true blood left by the Dragon God in the Xuanhuang World, combined with the codex in my hand, to draw out the last trace of power from the Dragon God's Dao-establishing incarnation and set up this Dragon God Arena."
"Now, in this Arena, only you and I are qualified to fight; the rest of the Dragon race can only watch from the sidelines."
Seeing this, Zhao Xing felt relieved instead.
So this was the Purple Dragon God's trump card?
"Originally, Great Dragon Kings like Yin Xiu, coordinating with Dragon race artifacts and formations, could pose a threat to him."
"Now, he has drawn out the Ancestor Dragon's Dao-establishing incarnation, revealing the Ancestor Dragon's Dao field, which is the legendary 'Dragon God Arena'."
"Only he and I are qualified to make a move."
"The winner becomes the Emperor, the loser eats dust!"
Zhao Xing did not hesitate and immediately flew into the Arena.
In the sky, the Purple Dragon God's massive body floated, his cold eyes overlooking the earth.
Zhao Xing was very small, like an ant compared to an elephant when contrasted with the Purple Dragon God's size.
After a moment of silence, the Purple Dragon God suddenly burst into loud laughter:
"Hahaha, how ridiculous, a human also wants to be the Dragon Emperor."
"I deliberately showed a flaw to lure you into the trap, and you actually dared to come."
"Human greed is indeed boundless."
The Purple Dragon God spat out the codex part and teased: "The item is right here, come and take it. I'll give you a chance to unleash your full strength."
"You talk too much." Zhao Xing's body swayed, and he soon grew to a hundred meters tall. This was the maximum size of his Divine Splendor Golden Body and the most suitable form for unleashing his full strength.
"Pure Origin Projection."
"Hum~"
In the Eastern Spring divine position, the Dragon Spirit Bamboo rose from the ground.
"Hum~"
In the Southern Summer divine position, the Separation Fire Lotus bloomed quietly.
Seeing these two plants again, the Purple Dragon God remained unmoved; these two plants posed no threat to him.
But when the Northern Winter divine position's Ice Soul Divine Tree appeared, the Purple Dragon God had a bad premonition.
He wanted to lock onto Zhao Xing, only to find that Zhao Xing had suddenly turned into clouds and mist and vanished.
And when the Western Autumn divine position's Bloodthirsty Long Teng appeared, the Purple Dragon God could no longer remain calm.
"Bloodthirsty Long Teng?!!"
"How could there still be a Bloodthirsty Long Teng in the Dragon Court!"
The Purple Dragon God had seen Zhao Xing's trump card as he wished, and his curiosity was satisfied, but the impact he received was not small, and he even felt fear at this moment.
Inverse Dragons were also dragons; the Purple Dragon God instinctively felt fear toward the Bloodthirsty Long Teng at this moment.
The Bloodthirsty Long Teng had a record of devouring Dragon Emperors!
This Bloodthirsty Long Teng was already in its peak period, just one step away from establishing its Dao.
It is difficult for plant life to grow and time-consuming, but once it grows up, being invincible among the same rank is just a basic operation.
Being at the perfection of the Rule Realm, the Bloodthirsty Long Teng could absolutely crush other types of life, especially those of the Dragon race!
"Four Seasons Divine Splendor, strangle!"
Zhao Xing's Pure Origin Projection began to move rapidly, shifting the positions of the plant soldiers to aim at the Purple Dragon God in the sky.
He unleashed his ultimate move right from the start, because dharma spells below the ultimate seventh rotation posed little threat to the Purple Dragon God, who was at the perfection of the Rule Realm.
Only the moves of the Benwo Sect, relying on the power of plant soldiers, could play a major role in such a situation.
From the direction of the Ice Soul Divine Tree, cold blue icy light surged like a tide, and the Purple Dragon God felt his blood seemingly freezing.
"Ka God Bead!"
The Purple Dragon God hurriedly spat out a magic bead, which emitted warm light, dispelling the cold on his body.
But he was more concerned about the direction of the Bloodthirsty Long Teng, and the Purple Dragon God impatiently made the Ka God Bead emit two black rays, heading straight for the west and north.
The radiance of the two divine trees posed the greatest threat to him; as for the Geng Metal Breath spat out by the Dragon Spirit Bamboo and the fire divine splendor sprayed by the Separation Fire Lotus, he ignored them directly, intending to withstand them with his dragon body.
"Bang!"
The Geng Metal Breath was deflected by his scales, but the Separation Fire could not be extinguished after spraying onto him.
Instead, it penetrated the scales and eroded into his flesh and even his bones.
"So difficult to deal with; how did he find this Separation Fire Lotus?" For a moment, the Purple Dragon God was quite surprised.
He possessed the Supreme Divine Dragon bloodline, and his body could be said to be impervious to water and fire, and all dharma spells were warded off.
Attacks with a domain below the seventh rank and dharma spells and martial skills below the ultimate seventh rotation could be ignored directly by him.
However, the Separation Fire Lotus was now at the middle stage of the Rule Realm, possessing its own seventh-rank domain, and its innate skill 【Nine-Leaf Separation Fire】 was comparable to an ultimate seventh-rotation dharma spell.
The Southern Bright Separation Fire was the ceiling of fire in the Xuanhuang World; fire is formless and qualityless, and it is not so simple to block it.
"Hum~"
A broken blade suddenly appeared on his dragon body, and the purple-golden aura scraped back and forth like a bone-scraping knife, as if scraping bone to heal a wound; the Separation Fire was immediately shoveled away and crashed toward the boundary of the Arena.
"A top-grade Star Dao Soldier? It should be a Dao Soldier capable of countering the fire element," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
In this split second, the Ice Soul Divine Tree's attack had arrived.
"Xiu xiu xiu xiu xiu xiu~"
The Ice Soul domain enveloped the Purple Dragon God's body, and his dragon scales immediately turned into a deep blue color.
"Snow Filling the Sky!"
"Extreme Frost Splendor!"
The snowflakes attached to the dragon scales seemed to form a painting on the scales, depicting the appearance of the Ice Soul Divine Tree.
The Extreme Frost Splendor bloomed on his body, and the Purple Dragon God was truly startled this time.
Just after driving away the fire, he welcomed the ice, and he felt his movements slowing down.
"Ka God Bead! Water and fire, retreat!"
The Purple Dragon God's second treasure, the Ka God Bead, suddenly turned from black to blue, dispelling the frost.
"Another top-grade Star Dao Soldier."
"This treasure is indeed useful," Zhao Xing looked at the bead that had turned blue. "It actually managed to block negative two hundred and eight degrees of temperature and instantly dispel the frost."
"The Ka God Bead is a top-grade Star Dao Soldier that counters the water element."
It is not simple to dispel the ice of the Ice Soul Divine Tree and instantly dispel the coldness of the body.
Only a top-grade Star Dao Soldier could achieve such an effect; if it were only middle-grade, it would be difficult to see results so quickly.
However, after causing trouble for the Purple Dragon God twice in a row, the Bloodthirsty Long Teng's attack had arrived.
This was the killing move!
Thirty-six main vines, accompanied by bursts of red light, lashed out together.
"Shift Form and Change Shadow!"
Mist filled the Purple Dragon God's body, and his massive body actually turned non-solid, like a dragon formed of clouds and mist.
"Hu hu hu hu hu hu~~~~"
"Pa!"
Thirty-six main vines, thirty-five of which missed one by one, only scattering the purple-golden clouds and mist, but the last one lashed onto the Purple Dragon God's body.
"Bang!"
Clearly hit in the west of the Arena, the Purple Dragon God's main body appeared in the south, his body still maintaining the posture of being knocked back, flying backward for a distance.
"With such a massive body, he can actually perform shifting and displacement?" Zhao Xing was also quite surprised.
"Shift Form and Change Shadow" and "Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell" were both prerequisites for the divine power "Dou Zhuan Xing Yi".
It was just that "Shift Form and Change Shadow" was an ultimate dharma spell, while "Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell" was an ultimate martial skill.
The Purple Dragon God was actually a dual cultivator of dharma and martial arts.
His physical body was formidable, yet he also understood ultimate dharma spells.
This was not an innate secret technique, but something cultivated later.
"So painful," the Purple Dragon God was lashed by the Bloodthirsty Long Teng, and his whole body was emitting blood-colored mist.
The Bloodthirsty Long Teng's characteristic of eroding life caused him to lose a portion of his vital energy.
His dragon scales were not broken, but his vital energy was shaken out, which was completely unreasonable.
"The innate secret technique 【Dragon Race Nemesis】 is really no joke," Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.
In his perception, the Separation Fire Lotus and Ice Soul Divine Tree barely broke through his defense, but the damage was minimal, and the Purple Dragon God's life aura did not drop much.
But this lash from the Bloodthirsty Long Teng directly reduced his life energy by one-twentieth.
The Purple Dragon God also felt it, and his heart was incredibly horrified: "If I get lashed twenty times, I'll die?"
He was truly afraid of the legendary Bloodthirsty Long Teng.
At this moment, he also understood why the Moon God had made such an arrangement.
If it weren't for the existence of the Arena, besides dealing with Zhao Xing alone, he would have had to deal with the siege of Yin Xiu and the other Great Dragon Kings.
"Must suppress the Bloodthirsty Long Teng!" The Purple Dragon God immediately spat out a ball of earthy yellow light.
"Desolate Land Talisman?!"
Zhao Xing's expression changed slightly.
"Hahahaha, you have quite an eye," the Purple Dragon God quickly threw the Desolate Land Talisman toward the ground.
What is a Desolate Land Talisman?
It is a 【Minor Divine Power Talisman】!
It was created based on the great divine power of "Dongyan Jue Tian Di Tong" (Severing Heaven and Earth Communication).
When the Desolate Land Talisman appeared, Zhao Xing understood.
This was the trump card bestowed upon the Purple Dragon God by the Moon God.
And it was specifically arranged to target him.
Because the Desolate Land Talisman could prohibit all dharma spells related to earth, including the Pure Origin Soil.
The rest of the Purple Dragon God's treasures were top-grade, but the Desolate Land Talisman was a one-time consumable. If it were sold in the universe, it could be sold for the price of a low-grade World-Star Dao Soldier; it was a treasure on the same level as the Snow Cangwu Top Leaf!
To use it in the Xuanhuang World to deal with Zhao Xing, who was at the early stage of the Rule Realm?
It had to be said that the Moon God really valued Zhao Xing enough.
"Within the Desolate Land Talisman, all earth-element dharma spells are ineffective, including the Pure Origin Projection. Without the Bloodthirsty Long Teng, Zhao Xing is just a small early-stage Rule Realm cultivator!" The Purple Dragon God's eyes were cold, staring at the Bloodthirsty Long Teng.
He did not notice at all that Zhao Xing had an extra sword in his hand.
"Indeed, you have some tricks," Zhao Xing looked at the Purple Dragon God in the south. "But do you think only you have treasures?"
He reached out and summoned, and a purple-black thin sword immediately appeared in his hand.
"Grow, grow, grow!"
Zhao Xing was now in his hundred-meter giant form, and the purple-black thin sword in his hand also grew to about thirty-three meters.
The sword body was slender, and a terrifying thunderous aura suddenly emerged, which instantly attracted the Purple Dragon God's attention.
"What kind of treasure is this..."
"Go!"
Zhao Xing threw the Dharma Sword directly, shooting it toward that Desolate Land Talisman.
"Xiu!"
Thunder flashed, and the Thunder Dharma Sword barely touched the talisman with its tip before the talisman landed.
"Boom~ Boom~"
It looked like a thin piece of paper, but the sword tip could not pierce through it.
The two forces were competing, and for a time, they were deadlocked.
"What?!"
The Purple Dragon God was shocked.
The Desolate Land Talisman was actually blocked?
"Soldier-Using Divine Decision, Infinite Divine Splendor!"
Zhao Xing immediately changed his tactics.
The Ice Soul Divine Tree, Dragon Spirit Bamboo, and Separation Fire Lotus suddenly seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, firing continuously without cooldown.
Geng Metal Breath, Nine-Leaf Separation Fire, Extreme Frost Splendor...
Innate secret techniques were unleashed toward the Purple Dragon God as if they cost nothing.
After the second layer of the Soldier-Using Divine Decision reached perfection, the Benwo Sect Si Nong's control over plant life was further improved.
After cultivating the "Four Seasons Divine Splendor Dao Field", one could make plant life defy their survival instincts and begin self-damaging attacks.
If it reached the third layer, Infinite Divine Splendor, it would upgrade to Divine Splendor Heaven Meteor.
Controlled to the extreme, plant life would defy their instinct to survive, turning from self-damaging attacks into suicidal attacks.
Of course, Zhao Xing could only achieve the level of "Infinite Divine Splendor" now, which was to ignore the cooldown time of innate secret techniques and seamlessly connect them at the cost of the plant life's lifespan.
So the Purple Dragon God saw a very ghostly scene.
The nine petals of the Separation Fire Lotus closed and sprayed in an instant.
The Dragon Spirit Bamboo's nodes flickered continuously, lighting up from the root to the top, emitting Geng Metal Breath.
The Ice Soul Divine Tree shook frantically, its leaves falling off in large numbers, as if it were trying to shake all its leaves off.
"You..."
The Purple Dragon God was stunned by this suddenly increased attack intensity.
Plant life would also fight for their lives?
He had truly never seen such a situation.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
Dragon scales shattered, flesh flew, and flames burned on his flesh.
One section of his dragon body was ice blue, and another was fire red.
The upper part was frozen to the point of losing sensation, while the lower part was burning with pain, piercing to the bone.
"Ang ang~~"
Even with the Ka God Bead and the Purple-Golden Blade, two divine weapons, guarding him, he was injured at this moment.
At this moment, the Purple Dragon God deeply felt the power of the Benwo Sect Si Nong.
This was the Benwo Sect Si Nong in the new version; relying solely on three plants, Zhao Xing beat the Purple Dragon God until he couldn't lift his head.
"Shift Form and Change Shadow!"
The Purple Dragon God roared, his red eyes locking onto Zhao Xing's position. This time, he wanted to move to Zhao Xing's side and use his innate secret technique to finish off Zhao Xing's main body.
But the three plants were just a cover.
Giving the Bloodthirsty Long Teng 【Infinite Extension】.
The moment the Purple Dragon God was suppressed, the thirty-six tentacles of the Bloodthirsty Long Teng had completely wrapped around him.
"Death Boundary!"
Vines covered the sky, and the surrounding Dragon race members could no longer see the Purple Dragon God's figure at all.
The Bloodthirsty Long Teng had completely wrapped him inside.
The blood-red hemispherical boundary tightened suddenly!
"Bang!"
Large amounts of blood mist exploded, but before they could spread, they were all absorbed by the holes on the tentacles of the Bloodthirsty Long Teng!
"What, what kind of monster is this..."
"Terrifying, the bloodline of the Supreme Dragon God was beaten like this?"
"I feel my body trembling, as if that is some kind of terrifying existence."
"What exactly is it?" "Roar!"
Countless Dragon race members were instinctively afraid; the Bloodthirsty Long Teng had caused heavy damage to the Dragon race in a certain epoch, and this "Dragon Race Nemesis" was engraved in the bloodline instinct of the Dragon race.
Just like ordinary people seeing a poisonous snake, even seeing a picture would make them instinctively afraid and shiver; these were lessons engraved in the bloodline generation after generation!
"Brother, wh-what is that?" Yin Li's dragon scales trembled; he was also very afraid.
The Bloodthirsty Long Teng made dragons afraid regardless of whether they were friend or foe.
"It's, it's the Bloodthirsty Long Teng," Yin Xiu's voice also trembled a little. "I didn't expect it to not be extinct, and to be controlled by the Dragon Emperor."
"What, it's actually it..." Yin Li felt at this moment that Zhao Xing was more like the villain; after all, what orthodox Dragon Emperor would raise a Dragon race nemesis!
"Gulu Gulu~"
"Gulu Gulu~"
The blood-red hemisphere formed by the thirty-six main vines began to make strange sounds, as if it were eating.
At this moment, all the Dragon race members didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Too scary for dragons!
In the process of eating, the Purple Dragon God's dragon spirit actually drilled out a dragon head through a gap. He was covered in blood, completely becoming a blood-colored dragon.
But he had just drilled out and hadn't had time to shout before he was slapped back in by a tentacle.
"Gachi, kacha~"
"Gugu~"
It seemed like the flesh was eaten, and it started eating the bones.
"Roar——"
Some Inverse Dragons even collapsed at this moment, wanting to flee.
"Pu wa——"
At this moment, Zhao Xing suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He turned his head and saw that the source of the backlash was the battlefield between the Thunder Dharma Sword and the Desolate Land Talisman.
The Thunder Dharma Sword only had its first layer of seal unlocked, so it was completely unable to unleash its power, but as a one-time consumable, the Desolate Land Talisman could unleash its full power.
"Dong!"
As if a stone had fallen, a sound echoed in Zhao Xing's heart.
The intense backlash made Zhao Xing bleed from his seven orifices, and he could not even maintain his hundred-meter golden body, let alone the Pure Origin Projection.
The Thunder Dharma Sword was also pressed into the ground by the Desolate Land Talisman, with only the hilt exposed, trembling continuously.
"Hum~"
As the Pure Origin Projection was forcibly pressed back into his body, the Bloodthirsty Long Teng, Dragon Spirit Bamboo, Separation Fire Lotus, and Ice Soul Divine Tree were also retracted into his body.
"Boom!"
The skeleton fell from the sky.
Because it was not a normal retraction of the projection, the Purple Dragon God's shell was not brought back together, but smashed heavily onto the ground.
Zhao Xing braced himself against his injuries and took a close look, then breathed a sigh of relief.
The Purple Dragon God was dead; half of its bones remained, and not a bit of flesh was left, all eaten clean.
Even the dragon spirit was gone.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Xing could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.
"The power of the Desolate Land Talisman is really fucking strong."
Zhao Xing gasped for air; he couldn't even fly now, so one could imagine how heavy his injuries were.
"Ang~"
Just as Yin Xiu and the others were about to go and treat Zhao Xing, the Dragon God phantom in the sky suddenly dove down.
At the same time, it repelled all the Dragon race members who were trying to enter the Arena.
"Pada~"
The Dragon God phantom reached the ground, but it turned into a drop of blood and merged into Zhao Xing's body.
Golden light flashed, and all the Dragon God phantoms shrank into golden light spots.
After a pause, the golden light suddenly flourished and expanded outward.
"Ang~"
A golden giant dragon flew up from the golden light.
It was Zhao Xing, who had unleashed the Hou Hou Bian Dharma!
His body size grew larger and larger, soon surpassing his original size. The Ultimate Hou Hou Bian Dharma broke through from the ultimate sixth rotation to the seventh, then the eighth, and finally... Zhao Xing's Ancestor Dragon Transformation reached ultimate perfection!
"The effect of the Dragon God's essence blood is really good." Zhao Xing swam his body; at this moment, his injuries were all recovered, and his Hou Hou Bian Dharma had completed its transformation.
The essence blood not only contained the power of the Dao but also possessed the life structure of the Ancestor Dragon.
Cultivating the Hou Hou Bian Dharma mainly required a reference object.
Originally, Zhao Xing thought his "Ancestor Dragon Transformation" was at its limit at the ultimate sixth rotation; after all, it was impossible for there to be a second Ancestor Dragon in the entire Xuanhuang World, and he could not obtain the Ancestor Dragon's life structure.
But he didn't expect the Purple Dragon God to have retained a drop of Ancestor Dragon essence blood.
"Purple Dragon God, you gave me a great gift." Zhao Xing wanted to laugh out loud, but the occasion was not quite right.
Because Yin Xiu had already prostrated himself.
"Welcome the Dragon Emperor back to his throne!"
"Welcome the Dragon Emperor back to his throne!"
"Welcome the Dragon Emperor back to his throne!"
"……"
Ten thousand dragons prostrated.
From this moment on, the ancient Dragon Court land finally had a true Dragon Emperor!
A Dragon Emperor recognized by the Dragon God!
The Dragon Emperor epoch written by the Guting Kingdom could finally be considered true to its name!
"Ang!"
Zhao Xing roared happily, showing his might.
At this moment, all the Inverse Dragons exploded, and their power, whether they were Great Dragon King or Dragon King level Inverse species, was absorbed by Zhao Xing, who had become the Dragon Emperor!
"Merge!"
With a thought from Zhao Xing, the third part of the Dragon Emperor Codex flew over.
The contaminated aura on it was cleared, and it merged into one with the other two parts.
"Hum~"
Golden light shone over the entire Dragon Court.
At this moment, all life in the ancient Dragon Court land could see a giant dragon roaring in the sky.
Not just inside the Dragon Court.
The Heavenly Longmen above the East Sea also showed the vision of Zhao Xing roaring at the sky.
"Shua shua shua~"
Luo Hou Wang, Ji Si, Works Lu Ying, Dong Ze, and others immediately looked above the Heavenly Longmen.
"The Dragon Emperor is born." Ji Si's expression was tense. "From now on, the Longmen is no longer a shackle for the Dragon race."
"Is it Zhao Xing, or the Purple Dragon God?" Luo Hou Wang asked.
"I don't know." Ji Si shook her head. "I'm tense because I don't know."
Judging from the appearance alone, it was impossible to tell.
Because after the breakthrough, Zhao Xing's dragon form was very different from before.
It was closer to the form of the Ancestor Dragon, and his body was full of power; just the phantom alone made people feel oppressed.
On the other side, Tuoba Gong of the Fangwai Alliance was also asking Tian Gui.
"Is it the Purple Dragon God, or Zhao Xing?"
"I don't know."
Tian Gui shook his head.
"But I can feel that the Desolate Land Talisman has been used; it should be the Purple Dragon God who won."
Even if the Desolate Land Talisman couldn't kill Zhao Xing, it should have defeated him.
Then the one who achieved the Dragon Emperor status should also be the Purple Dragon God.
……
At the same time, in the ancient Dragon Court land, the Sea of Sin.
Zhao Xing looked at the three-in-one Dragon Emperor Codex and couldn't help but feel emotional.
"With the ultimate perfection of the Hou Hou Bian Dharma, I am now the true Dragon Emperor."
"Even if the Xuanhuang World itself has restrictions, by borrowing the power of the ancient Dragon Court land and the Dragon race's national fortune, I can enter the realm of Dao-establishing ascension."
It was just like how Ji Che could reach the Dao-establishing realm because he was an Emperor.
Zhao Xing, as the Emperor of the Dragon race, could also borrow the power of the Dragon race to complete the process of Dao-establishing ascension if he wished.
"But in this way, I will have restrictions."
"It's better not to establish the Dao through the Dragon race path."
Zhao Xing was human by nature. If he used the method of establishing the Dao through national fortune, he would be restricted, and it was unclear whether his lifespan would be calculated according to Ji Che's method or that of a true Dragon Emperor.
In addition, he didn't know if the Three-God Life Palace he cultivated would collapse as a result.
The Three-God Life Palace did not accept or receive karma and had jumped out of the five elements and reincarnation.
But an Emperor would have to bear the karma of the race, which was equivalent to re-entering the five elements and reincarnation.
"There are too many conflicts, and if I establish the Dao, I cannot merge into the Great Zhou's national fortune again. My true goal is ascension; it is better to establish the Dao through the human path." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"Rise!"
Zhao Xing landed and reached toward the Desolate Land Talisman in the ground.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
A violent roar erupted between the dragon claw and the Desolate Land Talisman, and astonishing explosions echoed continuously.
The explosion, confined to the claw, lasted for a full three hours before it completely stopped.
"Truly terrifying, three hours to vent all the power," Zhao Xing was secretly shocked. "If I didn't have the Thunder Dharma Sword, I'm afraid I would have had to ask my big brother to save my life."
Using the Mo Cloud Vine in the void to catch this Desolate Land Talisman would have been better for Zhao Xing.
But the Mo Cloud Vine was his final trump card; he didn't want to expose it to the Moon God's observation unless absolutely necessary.
His battle with the Purple Dragon God would definitely be observed by the Moon God.
Calculating for himself, the Moon God could not bypass the Three-God Life Palace divine power to calculate Zhao Xing's various things, but with the Purple Dragon God as a strong medium, even if the Moon God couldn't see Zhao Xing, he could see the existence of the Mo Cloud Vine.
"Without the Ancestor Dragon essence blood, my injuries just now, with my Divine Splendor Golden Body, would have taken at most three to five years to recover."
"If I used the recovery effect of the Cangwu Top Leaf, I could have recovered in three to five days."
"Overall, this battle was a bit risky, but it wasn't a big problem," Zhao Xing reviewed.
He turned back into a human and pulled out the Thunder Sword.
"The Thunder Dharma Sword is also peculiar; when I turned into a dragon, I couldn't pull it out, but I could when I turned into a human."
"Seal!"
Zhao Xing re-encapsulated the Thunder Dharma Sword, and it quickly shrank, becoming slender, and finally less than half a meter long, like a large embroidery needle.
"Yin Xiu," Zhao Xing flew in front of Yin Xiu.
"Let's head home."
"Yes."
…………
In the 87th year of Yuanshuo, Zhao Xing became the Dragon Emperor. He did not immediately issue a decree to lift the restrictions on the ancient Dragon Court land.
Instead, he stayed in the Dragon Court for another five years.
He purged all the Inverse Dragons in the ancient Dragon Court land and unified the ten kingdoms into a whole.
"The powerhouses of the ancient Dragon Court land can be brought out in parts first."
"But some of the treasures can be cleared out first."
Afterward, he came to the central Dragon Court and officially began to issue decrees.
The decree mainly had two points.
First, to collect spiritual energy substances, and second, to collect rare and exotic species within the Dragon Court.
Three years later, Zhao Xing announced that he would migrate some of his clansmen out to live in the Xuanhuang World.
After some back and forth, by the time Zhao Xing truly came out of the ancient Dragon Court land, it was already the 95th year of Yuanshuo.
Fifty-three years had passed since the fourth time he entered the Dragon Court.
"Boom~"
The Heavenly Longmen shook and began to expand.
Waves surged on the sea surface.
The figures observing from afar watched nervously.
"The Heavenly Longmen has never expanded or shrunk before; someone is coming out."
"Will it be Zhao Xing, or the Purple Dragon God who comes out?"
"It must be Zhao Xing!"
"Hey, the possibility of it being the Purple Dragon God is very small. The Moon God had an oracle saying that the Purple Dragon God is very likely dead."
"Don't talk nonsense! We still have hope!"
……
After shaking for a while, a dragon head stretched out from the Heavenly Longmen.
Followed by the dragon body, pavilions, and dragon tail.
A tall and straight figure stood on the deck of the dragon ship; it was Zhao Xing.
"Shua shua shua shua!"
The two groups of observers in the distance immediately made different decisions.
The powerhouses of the Great Zhou rushed over quickly, with smiles on their faces.
"Hahaha, it's Zhao Xing!"
"I knew it would be Zhao Xing!"
"Zhao Wang is awesome!"
"Shouldn't we call him Zhao Huang now?"
"Cough cough, Brother Ye, just say that abroad; don't say it when we go back."
"……"
The powerhouses of the Fangwai Alliance fled while wailing.
"It's over, the Purple Dragon God has fallen!"
"After eight years of anticipation, there was no miracle after all!"
"The Purple Dragon Royal Court, the sky has collapsed!"
"Even the God is dead, where shall we go?"
"Let's flee back quickly."
The Purple Lin King, who had dragon horns on his head and had shown his mettle in the Great War of the West Pole, was also crying bitterly at this moment.
In fact, as early as when the Dragon Emperor phantom appeared outside the Heavenly Longmen, the Moon God had an oracle explaining the situation of the Purple Dragon God.
However, due to the existence of the Three-God Life Palace, the Moon God did not dare to conclude the situation inside.
But the Moon God was an absolute authority in the hearts of others; since he said the Purple Dragon God was very likely dead, it could basically be confirmed that he was dead.
Thus, the entire Fangwai Alliance left only a few powerhouses of the Purple Dragon Royal Court waiting here, hoping for a miracle.
"There is no miracle; the great Purple Dragon God is dead after all," the Purple Lin King muttered to himself, his eyes vacant.
When the Purple Dragon God first appeared, for them, the royal family, it was like the descent of a god on a totem, and the Purple Lin King had even received his guidance.
He thought it was a great revival, but the god died so quickly; the blow was too great.
The Purple Lin King could imagine how devastated the Royal Court would be when he returned.
He was devastated, but Ji Si's mouth was grinning.
"Congratulations to Zhao Wang for successfully subduing the Dragon race."
"Congratulations to Zhao Wang!"
The swift commander Dong Ze, Beichen Wang Qinfeng, Works Lu Ying, and even Luo Hou Wang all bowed and congratulated Zhao Xing.
Zhao Wang, who had conquered the Dragon Court, had a completely different weight.
The significance was also completely different.
If Zhao Xing wished, he could now become the master of the third strongest super force in the Xuanhuang World!
And he wouldn't have to worry about any rebellion; after all, the Dragon race had bloodline theory, which was much easier to manage than humans, and their cohesion was also completely different.
"Everyone, please rise," Zhao Xing smiled and returned the salute. "I know you have many questions, but let's wait until we return to the imperial court. Once I write a report to His Majesty, you will all know."
"That should be the case," Luo Hou Wang nodded. Of course, such matters had to be notified to Ji Che first.
Tianyong Prefecture, Fengjing.
In the 95th year of Yuanshuo, Zhao Xing brought thirty-eight Great Dragon Kings into the capital.
Including Yin Xiu, Hoge, Tianji, Zhi... all of them were in the Super First Rank realm!
The Dragon race had a transformation technique similar to the Hou Hou Bian Dharma; at this moment, they were all in human form.
When Zhao Xing returned, the imperial court was immediately stirred!
"What? Zhao Wang actually conquered the Dragon Court and can bring the Dragon race out?"
"Is it a dragon king like Bai Yunwu?"
"I heard they are even stronger than Bai Yunwu. Before the morning court, I saw Bai Yunwu bowing to the people behind Zhao Wang."
"Hiss, thirty-eight water tribe members stronger than the White Dragon King all at once?"
"They are Dragon race, not water tribe!"
"The White Dragon King is not pure; the ones Zhao Wang brought out are all pure."
"Huo, so the White Dragon King is a hybrid; I always thought that branch in the East Sea was pure Dragon race."
"Humph, there is a legend that the Ancestor Dragon gave birth to all things; everyone is a descendant of the dragon; there is no such thing as pure or impure. You all are too impolite!"
"Are you an official from the Bai family? You look unfamiliar; may I ask your name?"
"I don't change my name when I walk, and I don't change my surname when I sit; I am Shenxiao Hou, Long Xiao!"
"So it is Shenxiao Hou; excuse my ignorance, it was our slip of the tongue just now."
"……"
The morning court was held, and the thirty-eight Great Dragon Kings, including Yin Xiu, were all appointed as main officials of the Great Zhou's Xuanwei Office, First Rank, and were all arranged in the East Sea. The East Sea instantly gained thirty-eight official agencies.
Ji Che conferred titles upon them, and they accepted the titles; this move also meant that the Dragon race was incorporated into the Great Zhou's national fortune system.
Just after the conferment of titles for Zhao Xing, Yin Xiu, and others was completed, on the same day in the 95th year of Yuanshuo, Ji Che summoned Zhao Xing and told him a piece of good news.
"Big Brother, after you subdued the Dragon Court, the national fortune rose sharply, and I have successfully entered the Dao-establishing realm."
"Che, congratulations," Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile. The young Wu Di had finally been cultivated!
"Hahaha, thanks to you, Big Brother, my Dao Master of the Zhongji Palace." Ji Che was very happy.
Zhao Xing also laughed.
The Zhongji Palace Dao Master was a nominal title set up by Ji Che.
It was a palace specially built in the imperial palace for him. The center of the extreme, the status was honorable, and the Dao Master was a nominal title.
Zhongji Dao Master was the reward for Zhao Xing, because he could no longer be rewarded; titles and merit ranks could not be used to make a fuss, so he could only make a fuss about the scattered ranks.
Zhao Xing didn't care about these nominal things; practical benefits were the most important.
With Ji Che establishing the Dao, his cultivation in the Rule Realm could be greatly shortened.
"Che, hurry up and fill my realm," Zhao Xing said expectantly.
"Easy!" Ji Che pointed his finger, and a river of national fortune descended above the garden.
The national fortune was vast and mighty, possessing infinite mysteries, like a golden star river hanging in the sky.
When it fell, it formed a waterfall with Zhao Xing as the node.
"Hiss~"
Zhao Xing felt a sense of refreshment rushing straight to his crown; the warm feeling made him unable to help but relax his brows.
Within the Three-God Life Palace, the three souls grew rapidly!
The Heaven, Earth, and Human souls quickly reached the late stage of the Rule Realm from the middle stage, and then entered the perfection of the Rule Realm!
"So comfortable; the soul is nourished by heaven and earth and grows significantly; only in the Xuanhuang World can one have such a cheat-like treatment."
Besides this, his physical body was also transforming rapidly.
Early stage of the Rule Realm, middle stage of the Rule Realm, late stage of the Rule Realm, perfection of the Rule Realm!
Within three days, Zhao Xing's Divine Splendor Golden Body transformed from the early stage to the perfection of the Rule Realm!
"Grow, grow, grow!"
Zhao Xing's body size grew continuously, as if he were going against the current of the waterfall.
Ji Che felt it was a bit perverted as he watched.
"Big Brother, you had a hundred-meter golden body at the early stage of the Rule Realm? Even martial artists are only like this."
"After reaching the perfection of the Rule Realm, you are already eight hundred meters tall."
"When Luo Hou Wang entered the perfection of the Rule Realm, he only had a two-thousand-five-hundred-meter Dragon-Elephant Golden Body."
The physical body of a Si Nong is naturally not as good as that of a martial artist; it is very difficult for the dharma spell path's golden body to be as strong as the martial artist path.
Normally speaking, in terms of physical level, martial artists crush any profession. Being approached is death; of course, the difficulty for martial artists to kill lies in getting close.
Seven days later, the absorption stopped.
Zhao Xing then reluctantly left the waterfall of national fortune.
"Big Brother, you are really capable of absorbing; you actually absorbed for seven days."
"My Divine Splendor Golden Body needs to be a bit bigger," Zhao Xing said. "Mainly because my inner world (Pure Origin Space) is larger than that of a normal Si Nong; the inner world of the Benwo Sect is full of spirituality and will also feed back into the body."
"However, compared to martial artists, it is still much worse."
"Big Brother, you also cultivated the Hou Hou Bian Dharma. If you are in the state after Hou Hou Bian, you won't be afraid of martial artists," Ji Che said.
Zhao Xing did not humble himself and nodded with a smile: "That's true."
Unleashing the Ultimate Ancestor Dragon Transformation, in the state of perfection, Zhao Xing's dharma spell defense and martial skill defense reached an extremely exaggerated level.
Only ultimate perfection dharma spells and martial skills, combined with a handy Star Dao Soldier, could break his defense.
The weapon couldn't be too bad either; under the premise of the above, it had to be at least a middle-grade Star Dao Soldier.
Otherwise, standing there and letting a Rule Realm cultivator hit him would only be tickling.
Of course, the Hou Hou Bian Dharma also had a disadvantage: in the state of Ancestor Dragon Transformation, he could not unleash the Si Nong dharma spells in human form.
Because the Solar Term Tokens and Pure Origin Soil would be temporarily hidden as the life structure changed; there are gains and losses. The Hou Hou Bian Dharma is useful in some extreme environments, and it is more durable.
In addition, the Ultimate Ancestor Dragon Transformation gave Zhao Xing innate secret techniques, which were equivalent to changing a set of attack methods. For example, "Ancestor Dragon Opening Heaven", this move is a sound-wave innate secret technique, the Dao of Great Sound, which can catch enemies off guard.
"Che, I am now strong enough, and you have also established the Dao."
"I think we can consider going to the Land of Return to Ruins."
Ji Che was slightly stunned: "Big Brother, so anxious? You just came back; don't you want to rest for a while?"
Zhao Xing shook his head: "Killing the Purple Dragon God this time is probably not within the Moon God's expectations. He will probably re-evaluate my strength."
"We must take advantage of the fact that the Moon God hasn't reacted yet and get things done first."
Ji Che fell into thought: "What you say makes sense, but how should we go to the Land of Return to Ruins? After I broke through to the Dao-establishing realm, I have been able to sense the powerhouses of the entire Xuanhuang World."
"But I have never discovered where the Guardian of Return to Ruins you mentioned is."
"I said before that the Land of Return to Ruins is very special; it is a part of the Xuanhuang World, but its connection with the main body of the Xuanhuang World is not strong. It is isolated by the sea and the earth veins," Zhao Xing pointed downward: "It is below."
"Below? Below the earth veins?" Ji Che was a bit confused, "Then how should we go down?"
"There are two ways to go down," Zhao Xing said. "One is to walk from the 【Ends of the World】; there are four ends of the world, east, south, west, and north. They are the ends of the four seas, which is where the Four Pillar Mountains are located."
"But this road is dangerous and easily intercepted by the Moon God."
"What is the second way?" Ji Che asked.
"Drive the Cloud Sea Flying Boat parked in the Cloud Academy to drill into the ground and go down from the secret land of the Profound Heaven Academy in Daoyuan Prefecture," Zhao Xing said.
"Cloud Sea Flying Boat? Secret land of the Profound Heaven Academy?" Ji Che frowned: "Shouldn't we drive the Earth-Piercing Divine Boat of the Kunyuan Academy to drill into the ground?"
"I also know about the Cloud Sea Flying Boat; it is only a low-grade treasure. In the Kunyuan Academy, there is indeed a top-grade treasure Earth-Piercing Divine Boat."
"Fifth Brother, just send a clone to follow me and you'll know," Zhao Xing said. "In addition, I also need a powerful Si Nong to go with me."
"How powerful?" Ji Che asked.
"At least Rule Realm, and this Si Nong can only be from the Tian Shi Sect, and must have the spirit of voluntary sacrifice and dedication," Zhao Xing pondered.
Ji Che said: "There are seven Rule Realm Si Nong from the Tian Shi Sect now. As for the spirit of voluntary sacrifice and dedication you mentioned... what exactly is going on with this Land of Return to Ruins?"
…………
Profound Heaven Academy, Cloud Academy, Guze Cave Heaven.
Cloud Academy Dean Yun Ze, Wind Academy Dean Lu Xia, Thunder Academy Dean Wang Wang Tianzhi, Rain Academy Dean Kan Qing, and Hou Hou Bian Academy Dean Ling Ling Tianchen gathered together.
Beside them were two Rule Realm Vice Deans, Chen Yu and Xiao Yun.
At this moment, the seven Rule Realm Si Nong of the Tian Shi Sect watched helplessly as Meng Kun and Ji Youtang of the Di Li Sect, led by Zhao Xing, dug a large hole out of a wasteland in the Guze Cave Heaven.
"What is the Great Si Nong doing? Why did he come to our Cloud Academy to dig a hole for no reason?"
"I don't know. Does Dean Yun know the situation?"
Yun Ze was a bit confused: "I don't know. I just received the notification. This place in Guze Cave Heaven has no value at all; I don't know what they are digging for."
"Why is Guze Cave Heaven doing an underground project?" Wang Wang Tianzhi looked at Qiu Yuanshan. The latter shook his head: "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
"Truly strange, even His Majesty is here," Wang Wang Tianzhi muttered: "Could there be some treasure here?"
After the hole was dug to a depth of 80,000 meters, Meng Kun held a Divine Farmer Hoe and dug down another 3,000 meters.
"Your Majesty, Great Si Nong, we found it!"
Zhao Xing and Ji Che, who were waiting in the waist hole, immediately lit up.
They looked down and saw that after the soil layer was cleared.
An ancient and mysterious stone gate appeared underground. The stone gate had cloud patterns, was ancient, and had already become somewhat blurred; it was unknown what kind of characters they were.
"Yun Ze, drive the Cloud Sea Flying Boat down." Zhao Xing transmitted his voice to the people above.
"Yes." Yun Ze was the Dean of the Cloud Academy; originally he was only a Vice Dean, but after his brother Yun Duo died in the battle of the West Pole Continent, he became the Dean.
Hum~
An ancient flying boat descended 80,000 meters from the large hole, carrying people to the underground.
"What, there is a gate here?" Yun Ze was a bit surprised, "I, the Dean, actually didn't know."
"Meng Kun, Ji Youtang, you guard here."
"The rest of you, board the flying boat and follow me."
Zhao Xing broke open this gate, and then the flying boat carried the seven Tian Shi Sect Si Nong, Zhao Xing the Great Si Nong, and Ji Che's clone onto the flying boat.
The Cloud Sea Flying Boat continued to sink; its earth-drilling function was not strong, and it could even be said to be the most inconspicuous function.
How could a cloud ship of the Tian Shi Sect strengthen its earth-drilling function?
But in this strange passage, it drilled faster and faster.
Finally, even Yun Ze was shocked: "Its drilling speed actually exceeds that of the Earth-Piercing Divine Boat? I actually didn't know."
The other Tian Shi Sect Si Nong were also surprised, only Zhao Xing's expression was not excited, but rather appeared somewhat silent, falling into thought from time to time.
……
Land of Return to Ruins, the sky was gray and misty, in the chaos, large rivers were falling in the chaotic mist.
The direction of the river flow seemed to follow some kind of ultimate truth; the river flowed in the mist, and each river seemed to be a passage leading to an unknown place.
Their flying boat shuttled through the river channel, and after an unknown amount of time, the drifting Cloud Sea Flying Boat was suddenly guided by a force, passed through heavy turbulence, and then slowly stopped.
A micro-continent suddenly appeared ahead, with spring-like scenery on the land, planted with a forest of peach trees.
After the flying boat stopped, white clouds drifted in the sky, as if it were an isolated peach blossom spring.
"Is this the Land of Return to Ruins?" Everyone looked curiously.
"Yes, we have arrived," Zhao Xing nodded. "This is the Land of Return to Ruins."
"Hmm?" Ji Che's clone suddenly looked in a certain direction.
"What did Your Majesty discover?"
"The spiritual energy here is very abundant, and someone is coming over," Ji Che said. Even if it was a clone, this was a Dao-establishing realm dharma body, and his perception was sharper than others.
Soon, a graceful figure wearing a veil appeared in front of the flying boat.
"Fairy Lingdie." Zhao Xing stepped forward and greeted with a bow.
"Lord Zhao." The face under the veil of Fairy Lingdie seemed very surprised, "I didn't expect you to actually discover this road?"
"I discovered it by luck; I ask the Fairy to lead the way," Zhao Xing bowed.
"Lord Zhao, the place you want to come to has arrived," Fairy Lingdie said: "But before I take you in, please consider carefully and decide on the candidates. The Ancestor does not want you to be noisy inside."
Zhao Xing nodded: "Fairy, rest assured, we won't. All of us here have the awareness to put life and death aside."
"Good, follow me." Fairy Lingdie immediately led everyone through a peach blossom spring.
After walking for more than ten miles, everyone came to an ancient courtyard.
The courtyard was very strange, as if it were made of water, rippling, and the entire building seemed to be wrapped in water waves.
Inside the threshold of the courtyard gate stood a middle-aged man in a white Daoist robe.
After seeing this person, everyone stopped in their tracks.
The middle-aged man's gaze fell on Zhao Xing and Ji Che, then swept over the others one by one.
Then, he bowed toward the outside of the gate, and his voice was transmitted through the water curtain in front of the gate, appearing somewhat weathered.
"Greetings, fellow Daoists."
"Greetings, fellow Daoist," everyone returned the salute.
Ji Che's eyes lit up. He looked at the white-robed Daoist and asked after returning the salute: "Junior Ji Che, may I ask the name of the senior in the Land of Return to Ruins?"
The white-robed Daoist waited for a moment, and then a voice came: "I am called Yun Tiandao, the Great Si Nong of the Xia Dynasty."
