Chapter 1212: Northland Dragon King (Second Update, requesting everything)

After putting distance between himself and the uninhabited island, Li Zhangsheng, in his transformed Emperor River form, tore through space once more to survey the surrounding environment.

This place was still within the scope of the North Sea, but it was further north, closer to the Extreme North.

The Extreme North is also known as Beiming; this is not territory controlled by the North Sea Dragon King, but rather the domain of the Demon Emperor-level Kunpeng. It is rumored that this Kunpeng was the main Demon Pet of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor, and only occupied the Extreme North after the Heavenly Emperor fell.

The Kunpeng has resided deep in the Extreme North for years and established an organization called the Demon Master Palace.

The North Sea Dragon King had once thought of occupying the vast and boundless Extreme North, but the Kunpeng's speed was simply too fast, and its personality was known for being cunning. Even by uniting the strength of the Four Seas Dragon Clan, they could only repel it, but could neither kill nor seal the Kunpeng.

As time passed, both sides could only cease hostilities, recuperate, and maintain a superficial peace.

This time, Li Zhangsheng headed to the Extreme North because the third treasure site left behind by the Phoenix was located on the edge of the Extreme North.

Before this, Li Zhangsheng used a high-level Breath Concealment technique to make his aura indistinguishable from that of an Emperor Rank.

Li Zhangsheng summoned the Crown Li Fire Luan and had it search for the treasure site according to the Phoenix's memories.

After quite a bit of effort, the Crown Li Fire Luan finally locked onto the destination.

This was an ice island, filled with a large amount of thick ice crystals, looking like a massive iceberg.

The Extreme North is extremely cold, so the species that survive here are naturally dominated by Ice Attribute and Water Attribute Spirit Beasts; as for species of other attributes, they are few and far between, as who would come here to suffer?

After advancing to a Double-Character King, Li Zhangsheng's physical strength had improved further, and the weather of the Extreme North could not affect him at all.

Splash—

Just as Li Zhangsheng was preparing to step onto the ice island, suddenly, the sea surface near the ice island exploded with a boom, and immediately after, a massive creature emerged from beneath the water, staring coldly at Li Zhangsheng.

This was a snow-white Divine Beast dragon with two horns on its head and four claws under its belly, about three hundred meters in length; it was a four-clawed white dragon.

Judging from its aura, this four-clawed white dragon was in the Demon Emperor Level category, which made Li Zhangsheng's expression significantly more solemn.

Judging from the color of its scales, this four-clawed white dragon was at least four digits in age.

Besides this, Li Zhangsheng also obtained the data on the four-clawed white dragon.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Four-clawed White Dragon (Mature Stage, Divine Beast, condenses Rule Power, skill power doubled, and causes continuous damage to enemies; Rule Protection: exempts part of the damage, depending on the opponent's realm.)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon Emperor 9th Tier

【Spirit Beast Race】: Mid-level Divine Beast

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Half-Step Legendary

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: None

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Water

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None 《Mysterious Jade Ginseng eliminated the attribute weakness》

Li Zhangsheng had not expected this to be a Half-Step Legendary Quality four-clawed white dragon, which made him refrain from acting rashly.

If it were an ordinary Demon Emperor-level four-clawed white dragon, Li Zhangsheng could still hold the upper hand, but with Half-Step Legendary Quality, the outcome was hard to say; it would likely be a situation where both sides suffered.

"Human Stronger, this is the territory of the Northland Dragon King Ao Run. Leave this place immediately, otherwise, bear the consequences!"

The voice of the four-clawed white dragon Ao Run rang out, containing endless majesty, with vigorous Dragon Might ready to be unleashed.

Li Zhangsheng suddenly remembered something; his eyes rolled, and he asked: "Ao Run, do you still remember Feng Zi of the Nanli Volcano?"

Nanli Volcano is the largest volcano in the southern region, and Feng Zi is naturally the name of that fallen Phoenix, who had suppressed the Nanli Volcano for years.

From the Phoenix Egg left behind by Feng Zi, there were two Bloodline Imprints, namely the Phoenix and the four-clawed white dragon, and plus the fact that this was the third treasure site marked by Feng Zi and had the four-clawed white dragon Ao Run guarding it.

According to Li Zhangsheng's guess, Feng Zi was very likely Ao Run's lover.

Of course, it was also possible she had been abducted by Ao Run; given the nature of the Dragon Clan, how could they let Feng Zi go?

"Feng Zi!"

Upon hearing the name of Feng Zi, Ao Run could not help but be stunned, a look of longing appearing in its eyes. It could not remember how long it had been since it heard this name, which was buried in the deepest part of its heart—hundreds of years or thousands?

"You... you know her?"

As light flickered, Ao Run transformed into a middle-aged human form, wearing a yellow robe, his eyes revealing majesty.

"I suppose you could say I know her!"

Li Zhangsheng's tone was ambiguous; he could hardly say he hadn't even seen Feng Zi.

"Where is she?"

Ao Run's voice carried urgency.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng was certain that Ao Run and Feng Zi had an affair.

"She has very likely fallen!"

Li Zhangsheng spoke the truth; according to the inheritance obtained by the Crown Li Fire Luan at the time, it could basically be confirmed that the Phoenix had fallen, otherwise, she would not have left the Phoenix Nest and the Phoenix Egg there.

"How is that possible!"

Like a thunderclap, Ao Run's expression turned deathly pale, and his body even swayed; he had clearly been struck.

"Impossible, how could she have fallen!"

Ao Run clearly could not accept such an answer, looking somewhat frantic.

Li Zhangsheng did not speak and took the large Phoenix Nest directly out of the Secret Realm.

Ao Run stared blankly at the familiar Phoenix Nest; he naturally recognized it as Feng Zi's Phoenix Nest.

"Who, who killed her?"

"Crown Li Fire Luan, tell him what you know."

Li Zhangsheng shook his head, then signaled for the Crown Li Fire Luan to answer on his behalf, secretly telling it to hide the matter of the Phoenix Egg.

The Crown Li Fire Luan began to communicate with Ao Run, and Ao Run's face became increasingly ugly.

According to the Crown Li Fire Luan's account, Feng Zi had already been severely injured at the time and was preparing to head to the Flame Canyon to seek help; given that she had not retrieved the Phoenix Nest, it basically meant that Feng Zi had fallen.

Ao Run still found it hard to accept, but after seeing the Phoenix Nest and hearing the Crown Li Fire Luan's description, he had to believe it.

Li Zhangsheng continued to ask: "Ao Run, did Feng Zi not leave you any Soul Breath?"

If there is a Soul Breath, as long as it is preserved using an artifact, once the other party falls, the Soul Breath will automatically dissipate.

Generally speaking, most people will preserve their Soul Breath in Yinhun Wood.

"There was one originally, but it has already been destroyed."

Ao Run shook his head gloomily, though for him, this was more or less a good thing; at the very least, it preserved the theoretical possibility that Feng Zi had not fallen.

"Human Stronger, what have you come here for?"

"Treasure hunting."

Given that the other party was a thousand-year-old dragon, Li Zhangsheng did not hide it; he couldn't exactly say he had come to find Ao Run.

Ao Run was silent for a moment, then spoke: "I will take you there!"

After finishing speaking, Ao Run took the lead and moved forward.

Li Zhangsheng followed behind, maintaining a certain distance from Ao Run.

There was no help for it; Ao Run was truly too strong. If he were to suddenly erupt, it was possible he could severely injure Li Zhangsheng, so it was best to prioritize safety above all else.
