Chapter 29: Chulong's Schemes, Arrival in the West!

"How formidable is Duobao Daoist's strength?"

"When Chulong Ancestor finished listening to Ao Zixin's words, he showed a look of surprise."

"He is a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivator, still cultivating the Dao of Laws, which is completely different from the mainstream cultivation method of the Primordial World at present."

"But his strength is not to be underestimated."

"This is also the main reason why, although the Dragon Race has declined, the Demon Race has not caused trouble for them."

"But Chulong remains vigilant even in safety."

"As the Primordial First Sage's teachings continue to spread, he believes that more and more powerful beings will break through the shackles of heaven and earth and reach higher heights."

"Then he would lose the initiative, the Dragon Race would face a great crisis, and even suffer an unprecedented threat."

"Because just a hundred years ago."

"The Primordial World's emerging force, the male and female immortals appointed by the sage—Dong Wanggong and the Queen Mother of the West—sent envoys to descend upon the Dragon Race."

"They actually wanted the Dragon Race to join the Celestial Court that was about to be established."

"This is a matter of great importance."

"Only then was this old ancestor forced to leave his seclusion."

"After finally dealing with that Celestial Court envoy, Chulong only then sensed that Ao Zixin was in danger, and thus followed her aura to come here."

"At this moment, hearing Ao Zixin recount her own ordeal, Chulong genuinely broke into a cold sweat for her."

"He is the younger brother of the Primordial Dragon, the current leader of the Dragon Race, and very experienced."

"Although he only learned of Duobao from a few words of Ao Zixin, based on his experience he could infer that Duobao is a rare talent."

"He developed a great interest in that Duobao Daoist."

"Such astonishingly talented individuals will surely attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal Dao in the future, and may even rise higher."

"If they were to recruit him into the Dragon Race, the Dragon Race's unique standing in the Primordial World would have nothing to worry about."

"Upon thinking this, Chulong couldn't help but look at Ao Zixin, and an idea spontaneously arose."

"Although he had made up his mind, he still needed to test him."

"\"Second Uncle, those people must have tracked down Duobao Daoist's whereabouts, and among them is a Taiyi Golden Immortal; he must be in danger—what should we do? \""

"\"Oh, you just met him once and even let him enter your older brother's treasury—do you have feelings for him? \""

"Seeing his niece so worried about an outsider cultivator, Chulong felt greatly surprised."

"This niece of his is extremely proud; she looks down on all the talented youths of the Dragon Race, yet she cares so much for an outsider."

"Could there be a romance?"

"\"Second Uncle, she saved my life, so worrying is normal. \""

"Ao Zixin met Chulong's gaze, her face blushed, and she hurriedly explained."

"\"That's not easy to handle—follow me, Second Uncle! \""

"Chulong laughed loudly, swept Ao Zixin up in his big hand, turning into a green streak that shot straight into the distance."

"The West."

"The land turned dark brown."

"Cracks of all sizes covered the ground."

"From time to time, black vapor burst forth."

"Moreover, countless immortal mountains had collapsed, rubble littered the ground, a sight that shocked the heart."

"Here, spiritual energy was extremely thin, to the point of hardly being felt."

"As far as the eye could see, it was desolate and silent, as if no living beings existed."

"After several hundred years, a youthful man clad in a silver brocade robe, heroic and vigorous, appeared on the western land."

"After several hundred years of travel, Duobao lost some of his childishness, gained wisdom and resolve."

"From the East Sea, he flew westward all the way with golden light."

"During this time, he reaped abundant gains."

"Immortal herbs, immortal flowers, immortal fruits, spiritual materials, spiritual objects—everything was available."

"Although he failed to obtain treasures like the Five Directions Banner, he did acquire several acquired spiritual treasures, which he stored in the Five Elements Glazed Pagoda, transforming them into the Five Elements Origin, which he absorbed and refined."

"Although his cultivation did not advance, it strengthened his origin, fortified his aptitude and foundation."

"This left Duobao extremely satisfied. However, where there is rain, there is wind."

"Although his several hundred years of travel brought him rich gains, he likewise encountered some evil spirits and monsters."

"He once fought a tiger demon over a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, battling until the sky darkened."

"In the end, Duobao gained the upper hand."

"He successfully absorbed it into the Five Elements Glazed Pagoda and refined its origin."

"He once battled a three-headed wolf king who was an early-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal, engaging in three thousand rounds of combat over a hundred years."

"Finally, he was covered in wounds."

"Having no choice, he sacrificed the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd."

"It released myriad rays of destructive light, instantly annihilating that Taiyi Golden Immortal realm wolf king, not even preserving its origin."

"Duobao was shocked by the might of the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd."

"He was also astonished by the tremendous cost of using the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd."

"Draining every bit of his mana was barely enough to let the Purple Gourd release a trace of power."

"If the full power of the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd were unleashed, would it not require sage-like strength? Duobao was speechless."

"But he was mostly overjoyed."

"This time, he was forced to use the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd, coming to understand its formidable power, giving Duobao an initial understanding of it."

This is absolutely a deadly weapon! It must not be used lightly, but once used, it will surely destroy heaven and earth!

It took a full hundred years for him to replenish his exhausted magical power.

It made him dare not lightly use the Mysterious Heaven Purple Gourd.

But because of that, he for the first time slew a cultivator of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

This made him not only adept in combat divine abilities, but also deepened his understanding of the heavenly and earthly Five Elements laws somewhat.

Of course, the Taiyi Golden Immortal's countless years of collection became his spoils of war.

From it, Duobao actually obtained a stalk of Superior Spirit Innate Spiritual Root.

This was an unexpected joy.

At this moment, standing on the western land, Duobao finally felt that deathly stillness.

Since ancient times, the west has been fraught with misfortune.

Having endured countless destructive ravages.

Whether it be ferocious beasts running rampant, the three clans waging war, or the conflict between Dao and demons.

All have repeatedly dealt heavy blows to the west.

This is why the present scene is desolate and deathly still.

Regarding this, Duobao could only sigh.

He then activated the four-sided five-direction flags in his Divine Sea and began to examine them.

This time, his main goal was to find the Western Plain-Colored Cloud Realm Flag! Once the five flags are gathered, he can begin to advance to Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Now his essence, energy, spirit, magical power, and physical body have all reached the peak of Golden Immortal.

He now lacks only one opportunity: the perfection of the Five Qi.

Of course, if he used ordinary top-grade spiritual objects, he could now enter seclusion.

But if he did that, wanting to prove the Dao through the Five Elements laws would be extremely difficult.

His reason for choosing to use the Five Directions Flags to condense the Five Qi was fundamentally to lay a solid foundation for his own Five Elements Dao proof.

The Five Directions Flags are not only the strongest choice for condensing the Five Qi, but also give a natural advantage in gathering the power of the Five Elements.

By then, he could completely set up a Five Elements Grand Formation using his five viscera.

In the forward direction, he can constantly absorb the heavenly and earthly Five Elements laws for his own use, constantly cultivating the Five Elements power—so much so that even his breathing grows stronger.

In reverse, he can even project a Five Elements Grand Formation outside his body; being within this formation, his strength will invisibly increase by multiple folds.

This is the true reason why Duobao insists on doing this.

Hum!

Just then, the four-sided flags in his Divine Sea suddenly moved.
