Chapter 80: Cultivating the Core

「It's actually, the Primeval Dragon Clan Bloodline Purification Technique! 」

Ao Guang sensed the change in his little sister's bloodline aura, and the whole dragon trembled slightly with excitement.

「Heaven blesses the dragon clan, heaven blesses the dragon clan! 」

In an instant, bean-sized tears streamed from the dragon's eyes; this thousand-year-old sorrow was known only to himself.

After all, if not forced, how could he bear to suppress his own younger brothers and sisters in their youth?

Isn't it that if he doesn't do this, the dragon clan will be completely wiped out?

Nowadays, Heaven pities the dragon clan's hardships, and with a clang, it sent them the Holy Dragon.

Ao Guang knew that his millennia of endurance were all worthwhile!

「Holy Dragon, you're too partial! All the good things always go to the little sister first—what about us brothers! 」

Just then, Ao Qin's untimely voice came over.

Hearing that, Ao Guang couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself: 'Well, it seems suppressing that big idiot is correct.'

「Little sister! 」

Ao Guang spoke, and Ao Run understood instantly; with a light flick of his finger, Ao Qin's whole dragon was once again thrown into the Sea Bottom Purgatory.

It's estimated that without spending some time, this guy cannot be released.

After all, the Sea Bottom Purgatory also imprisons many sea-bottom demons that have not yet submitted to the dragon clan.

Seeing this, the slightly smarter Ao Shun also didn't say much.

After all, anyone can see now that all the dragon clan's hopes rest upon this Holy Dragon.

Nowadays, the entire dragon clan must treat him like an ancestor to be worshipped, except for that big idiot Ao Qin, who speaks without thinking.

「Holy Dragon, please don't mind; my third brother is just like that, he means no harm! 」

Ao Guang looked at Ao Yifan with a fawning expression and said.

「Mm, it's fine! 」

Waving his hand, Ao Yifan said: 'Your Dragon Palace restoration is not bad; the rewards I promised you, I have already applied for from above; surely, it won't be long before they come down.'

「The rewards from above! 」

Hearing that, Ao Guang's eyes lit up, full of anticipation, he said: 'Holy Dragon, could you tell us what that reward is? Of course, if it's inconvenient, it's fine if you don't say.'

「There's nothing inconvenient about it. 」

Ao Yifan held the adorable Ao Sheng and said: 'I have already reached a deal with the Chan Teaching; they will send their second-generation disciple Shen Gongbao to deliver the Supreme Treasure Spirit Pearl. When it arrives, I will split the pearl in two, bestowing one half upon my daughter Ao Sheng and the other upon your son Ao Bing, to enhance their foundations. Once they achieve cultivation, they will surely qualify for the ranks of immortals.'

「Shen Gongbao! 」

Ao Guang was overjoyed in his heart, after all, in private he does have some acquaintance with that person.

As for the Supreme Treasure Spirit Pearl, Ao Guang had also heard it is a sacred object for enhancing one's foundation.

However, Ao Guang never expected that the Holy Dragon's influence would be this great— the Chan Teaching actually sent their own supreme treasure over.

Alright, this matter is settled; just wait patiently.

Ao Yifan said: 'By the way, where are Sha Mu and the others? Have them come see me.'

「Yes, Holy Dragon! 」

Ao Guang spoke with a respectful expression; at this moment, his heart held complete trust in the Holy Dragon.

Meanwhile, Ao Run pursed her lips slightly, feeling a bit dissatisfied with this.

Merely, due to her pride, she also disdained to quarrel over those lowly demons.

「Sheng'er, come, I'll go teach you some techniques! 」

Taking Ao Sheng from Ao Yifan's hands, Ao Run gave Ao Yifan a tap on the back of the head to express her dissatisfaction.

Ao Yifan merely smiled and did not pursue.

……

「Holy Dragon! 」

Sha Mu and the three women respectfully saluted Ao Yifan, then immediately clung to him.

「No rush, I will first enhance your bloodlines! 」

Not long after obtaining the Dragon Transformation Pool, Ao Yifan had already given the three women dragon clan bloodlines.

However, the three women's bloodlines are not pure.

Now that Ao Yifan has obtained the Primeval Dragon Clan Bloodline Purification Technique, he naturally thought of those three.

This is the way of balance!

Although the dragon clan venerates him as the Holy Dragon, the four Dragon Kings still command their own direct forces.

Therefore, Ao Yifan never intended from the start to put all his eggs in one basket.

And the three demons who first followed him are precisely the targets Ao Yifan intends to focus on cultivating.

After all, they are all his women, and Sha Mu and the three women also clearly understand that only by relying on him can they continue to survive.

Thus, the three women and the forces behind them are his direct lineage strength.

This is not because Ao Yifan worries about the dragon clan betraying him; rather, he has always believed that only by grasping power can one have sufficient say.

Therefore, he needs to implant within the dragon clan a powerful force solely his own; then, even if the dragon clan becomes ever stronger, he fundamentally lacks any power or inclination to oppose himself.

「Alright, that's enough for today; from now on, I will continually purify the dragon clan blood within your bodies! 」

Ao Yifan withdrew his technique and said to the three women.

Sensing the changes within their bodies, Sha Mu and the three women trembled with excitement.

「Holy Dragon, the task you assigned last time, I have carefully selected nine demon women for you; do you have time now? 」

The female demon of the Eel Clan, Wan Qing, gave a charming smile and said.

「Oh? You're thoughtful; let's go, I'll go see whether you truly followed my orders to complete the task. 」

Ao Yifan said.

"Yes, Holy Dragon Sir!"

The three Sha Mu surrounded Ao Yifan and headed toward the undersea palace where the three women lived.

Although the process was arduous, thinking that these were all his future placements within the Dragon Clan, Ao Yifan felt that his hardship was nothing.

After all, for better control of the Dragon Clan, what's a little hardship?

……

"How strange, this Chen Tang Pass is extremely strange!"

Upon the auspicious clouds, Tai Bai Jin Xing observed the Chen Tang Pass below, a flash of deep doubt crossing his eyes.

As a Heavenly Star Lord, Tai Bai Jin Xing can discern the mortal world's qi fortune.

Yet in his view, the Chen Tang Pass's Yin Shang national fortune was hardly inferior to that of the Yin Shang capital, Chaoge City.

"Could this be the reason for Xuan Nu's descent to Chen Tang Pass?"

Tai Bai Jin Xing furrowed his brows and whispered: "Just let Xuan Nu come out and ask—then we'll know!"

Thinking thus, he saw Tai Bai Jin Xing's fingers pinching a seal sign.

In the next moment, within the Chen Tang Pass Commander's Residence, Jiu Tian Xuan Nu's expression shifted, and she instantly vanished from the spot.

"Tai Bai, how did you come to Chen Tang Pass?"

Jiu Tian Xuan Nu looked at Tai Bai Jin Xing and asked.

"Xuan Nu, I still want to ask you: by manifesting your true form and descending to Chen Tang Pass, could there not be some profound meaning?"

Tai Bai Jin Xing did not answer but turned the question back.

A strange color flashed in his eyes and vanished; Jiu Tian Xuan Nu said: "Tai Bai, while seeking clues to the Great Zhou Tian Star Formation, I happened to sense something, discovered that this place aids my cultivation, and thus descended here."

"Oh? So that's how it is!"

Tai Bai Jin Xing's face showed a hint of sudden realization.

Such cultivators indeed experience heaven‑human resonance; sometimes opportunities arise without warning, which is not strange.

"Well, I'll congratulate you here first!"

Tai Bai Jin Xing clasped his hands and said.
