Chapter 1581: The Time Dragon's Head

This is a greyish-white giant dragon skull, covered in runes; Li Zhangsheng recognized at a glance that these were shrinking-type runes, capable of reducing the volume of an object.

From its appearance, the giant dragon skull is rather ugly, with deep-set eye sockets and a spike resembling a sundial gnomon extending from the back of its cranium, which appears to double the length of its head.

Li Zhangsheng's eyes widened slightly, then returned to normal.

That it could make Li Zhangsheng so surprised means this is naturally no ordinary giant dragon skull, for this is the skull of the Unique Divine Beast, the Time Dragon.

The Time Dragon can breathe time, devour time, and live within it in a way that makes it the embodiment of time itself.

Even compared to the Dragon Gods, this type of dragon is considered the most powerful of all the Dragon Clan; this is the Time Dragon.

Of course, the Nine-Faced Dragon God Ao, as the creator of the giant dragons, is not included.

Even so, the Time Dragon's strength is above the other Dragon Gods, and it can be counted as top-tier even among Unique Divine Beasts.

Yet, such a Time Dragon has actually fallen.

Who killed the Time Dragon? Why would the Heavenly Dao of the Fairy World possess the skull of a Time Dragon?

Such questions surfaced in Li Zhangsheng's mind; since the other party was able to slay a Time Dragon, their strength can be imagined—they are definitely among the top tier in the Heavens and Myriad Worlds.

Hmm, Li Zhangsheng is also among that number.

However, that is not the main point; in Li Zhangsheng's Consciousness Sea, the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant is trembling, its target pointing directly at the Time Dragon skull before him.

It is unclear whether a Seeking Dao Jade Fragment is hidden within the Time Dragon skull, or if the skull contains something the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant covets; perhaps it is possible it is like the Nine-Faced Dragon God Ao.

In any case, choosing it is the right thing to do, not to mention Li Zhangsheng can choose three items.

After communicating with the Heavenly Dao, the Restriction on the treasure pillar vanished; Li Zhangsheng waved his hand, specifically storing the Time Dragon's skull into his Secret Realm.

As the Secret Realm portal disappeared, the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant also stopped trembling; it was indeed related to the Time Dragon's skull.

Li Zhangsheng continued to wander around; after looking through them, Li Zhangsheng helplessly discovered that the remaining treasures were of no use to him, or at the very least, of no great use.

Although these treasures are not bad, most have not reached the level of a World Wonder, and even if they have, they are items like the Time Dragon's skull.

Regarding the corpses or severed limbs of other powerful creatures, Li Zhangsheng expressed little interest.

As Li Zhangsheng's thoughts stirred, the palace underwent a change; four Space Channels formed in four directions, each with a Divine Beast guarding the end of the channel. As long as one defeats the Divine Beast or passes the Divine Beast's trial, one can obtain the treasure.

Li Zhangsheng is no stranger to this and entered the nearest Space Channel directly.

Amidst a dizzying spin, Li Zhangsheng appeared on a vast island.

"Who, who has disturbed my slumber? You shall surely suffer the wrath of the great Alxinsong..."

When Li Zhangsheng entered, a voice filled with Anger resounded through the heavens, but the moment it sensed Li Zhangsheng's unmasked aura, the voice stopped abruptly.

The next moment, a massive figure flew over, but instead of attacking Li Zhangsheng, it performed a 'carefree' landing in the style of a falling wild goose; its massive body collapsed onto the ground like a golden mountain toppling and a jade pillar crumbling, tail held high, burying its arrogant head in the earth.

"Great, noble, and powerful Your Majesty, this little dragon did not know you would come; please forgive this little dragon's sin."

This is an Ancestral White Dragon; as it spoke, its massive dragon body could not stop trembling.

The Ancestral White Dragon does not recognize Li Zhangsheng, as it has slept here for a long time and has not gone out in ages, but it had once seen an Emperor from afar and recognized this as the unique aura of an Emperor. Even the weakest Emperor would find it incredibly simple to deal with an Ancestral White Dragon like itself.

Do not be fooled by this being a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm; every Emperor possesses a certain degree of Authority. Moreover, even if one could not kill it here, one could absolutely find and kill it outside; for an Emperor, this is truly not difficult.

Thus, the Ancestral White Dragon lowered its arrogant head; compared to its life, what did face matter?

Compared to the stupid white dragons, their ancestors, the Ancestral White Dragons, are not foolish at all; on the contrary, they are quite shrewd.

It is unknown why the white dragons formed after their Bloodline became Sparse are so stupid and have been dubbed the Dragon Clan Shame.

Li Zhangsheng merely struck out with one palm, and the Ancestral White Dragon felt a tremendous force strike it; its massive dragon body fell heavily to the ground, dragging for nearly a hundred meters before stopping, having suffered severe injuries.

This was still the result of Li Zhangsheng holding back quite a bit of strength; otherwise, a casual palm could have slapped the Ancestral White Dragon to death. However, the Ancestral White Dragon cannot die here, and in any case, one must give the Heavenly Dao some face.

After a small punishment, Li Zhangsheng could not be bothered to pay attention to the miserable Ancestral White Dragon and went straight to the treasure guarded by the Ancestral White Dragon.

This was actually a Divine Beast corpse: human body with a snake tail, seven hands on its back, two hands on its chest, holding two serpents in its hands—it was the Top-tier Divine Beast, Houtu.

Li Zhangsheng's heart stirred; although this Houtu had been dead for a long time, it could still be used to extract a large amount of Houtu Essence Blood, enough to bring Adai's Houtu Bloodline to perfection.

As for Adai's Golden Behemoth Bloodline, after unifying the Heavenly Court and the human world, his subordinates must have collected enough; even if it were still insufficient, he had raised a batch of Behemoth beasts in his Secret Realm, and extracting some blood would surely suffice.

However, Li Zhangsheng did not make a choice immediately.

He would not make a choice until he had finished looking at the other treasures.

Although the Houtu corpse was also relatively important, it was far inferior to the Seeking Dao Jade Fragment; after all, as long as he was given time, Houtu Essence Blood would not be hard to collect.

After Li Zhangsheng left, the Ancestral White Dragon stood up in a disheveled state; it did not take the opportunity to curse Li Zhangsheng behind his back after he left. From that one slap just now, it had felt a thick threat of death, and instead felt that the other party doing this was the best outcome; it was willing to accept such punishment, as it was better than losing its life.

Soon, Li Zhangsheng entered the next Space Channel.

This time, the one guarding the treasure was a Shangyang; unlike the Ancestral White Dragon, the good-tempered Shangyang had not been awakened to vent its inner dissatisfaction, but was instead wondering who would enter at this time when the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm had clearly not been opened.

Upon seeing Li Zhangsheng, the Shangyang was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly knelt on the ground to pay respects.

This Shangyang had responded to the Heavenly Dao's call not long ago and had naturally seen Li Zhangsheng a few times; it felt more than ordinary awe for the Heavenly Emperor, and was filled with worship.

Li Zhangsheng comforted the Shangyang with a few words, then, led by the Shangyang, saw the treasure guarded by the Shangyang.
