Chapter 375: The Fated Son Long Ao, Whoever Provokes Me Shall Die

If one were to name the most famous prodigy of the Huangtian Immortal Realm in this generation, Long Ao cannot be bypassed.

When Long Ao was born, the spectral form of an Ancestral Dragon appeared, and heaven displayed auspicious signs.

He bore the blood of the Emperor Dragon, the noblest and purest dragon lineage.

All beings in the Ancestral Dragon Nest believed Long Ao had the qualification to become a Saint and an Ancestor.

Yet in truth, as the Ancestral Dragon Nest elders had foreseen, Long Ao did not disappoint.

His talent was astonishing.

Challenging opponents across tiers was as simple as drinking water or eating rice.

His aura of imperial dominance leaked out, causing countless contemporary prodigies to willingly submit.

Many imperial princesses and holy maidens were likewise captivated by his heroic and divine bearing, their hearts lost to him.

Moreover, Long Ao's luck was explosive.

During his worldly trials, Long Ao once acquired a battered great sword from a stall for the price of a single source stone.

But after purifying it with his own bloodline, the battered sword revealed its true form.

It turned out to be a Dragon Soul Blade, containing a Supreme Dragon Soul, ranked at the Supreme Artifact level!

Thereafter, Long Ao roamed through countless secret realms, sweeping all directions and plundering numerous opportunities and treasures.

Not only that, he also rescued beauties in the secret realms and won their hearts.

The Tianhu Clan's heavenly maiden Bai Meier once became trapped in an ultimate array, later rescued by Long Ao, and fell hopelessly in love with him.

Furthermore, whenever Long Ao attended auctions, the finest treasures always ended up in his hands.

Long Ao even excelled in alchemy, artifact forging, and more.

In short, there was nothing Long Ao could not do.

He was simply that awesome!

Later, the Ancestral Dragon Nest, seeking to cultivate Long Ao, bestowed upon him seven elemental Dragon Essences.

Thereafter, Long Ao remained in seclusion, refining the seven Dragon Essences.

Keyishuo ， Zaijunxiaoyaochengmingzhiqian ， Long Ao was the most prominent prodigy in the Huangtianxianyu.

Even many human ancient clan heirs were overshadowed by Long Ao.

Now, Long Ao had finally fully refined the seven Dragon Essences and emerged from his seclusion.

All eyes in Hongzhou turned toward the Ancestral Dragon Nest.

Outside the Ancestral Dragon Nest, countless figures appeared in dense clusters.

They were ancient royal clans who had sensed the changes within the Ancestral Dragon Nest and rushed to observe.

Their gazes converged, finally laying eyes on the Ancestral Dragon Nest's original generation, who had been in seclusion for so long.

Long Ao stood tall, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, surrounded by boundless dragon qi, his aura myriad in form, fully displaying the original generation's heroic bearing!

His appearance was equally outstanding: sword-like brows arched into his temples, eyes bright as stars, nose high as a jade pendant, elegant as a dragon-horse or phoenix chick, radiating divine brilliance.

In short, if he weren't handsome, he'd be insulting his own wildly cool and dazzling name.

Of course, he still fell short of Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao was the universally acknowledged most handsome young man in the Immortal Realm, a celestial being, the cold and distant white moonlight in every maiden's heart.

Even Long Ao could only rank second.

But what astonished all beings was not Long Ao's appearance, but his cultivation base.

He had already reached the Void Spirit realm!

This had shattered the record for the highest cultivation among the younger generation.

At least among all prodigies currently emerged, he was the strongest.

"He's already reached the Void Spirit realm? Is Long Ao really that terrifying?"

"No wonder he's the core-cultivated taboo original generation of the Ancestral Dragon Nest—Emperor Dragon blood plus seven Dragon Essences, Long Ao is absolutely top-tier!"

The royal clan beings outside the Ancestral Dragon Nest were all awestruck.

Some young prodigies from ancient royal clans even felt ashamed of themselves.

Compared to Long Ao, they were nothing but trash.

No, worse than trash.

Feeling the gazes of the crowd surrounding him, Long Ao himself remained remarkably calm.

Yet the faint curve of his lips betrayed his inner satisfaction.

This feeling of towering above all, under the gaze of countless eyes—truly exhilarating!

"Refining seven Dragon Essences only pushed me to the Void Spirit realm, but it's not enough. In the Immortal Ancient World, I, Long Ao, will break through to the Heavenly Spirit realm!"

Long Ao raised his head, gazing at the celestial mirage above, his heart filled with ambition.

The Void Spirit realm is the first of the Nine Stages to Sainthood.

Once ascending the Nine Stages to Sainthood, advancing through each realm becomes exceedingly difficult.

Yet in Long Ao's mouth, breaking through realms seemed no big deal.

"Ao Tian, you've finally emerged!"

A group of Ancestral Dragon Nest elders appeared, each radiating overwhelming pressure, yet their gazes toward Long Ao carried satisfaction.

The Ancestral Dragon Nest had been suppressed too long, and suffered too greatly.

Even the ancient anomaly, Princess Long Ji, had been defeated by Jun Xiaoyao.

They desperately needed a powerful young prodigy to restore their reputation.

Without doubt, Long Ao was the best candidate.

Long Bichi, clad in green soft armor, also appeared.

"Congratulations, Brother Ao Tian, on refining the seven Dragon Essences and achieving great mastery!" Long Bichi's eyes shimmered with admiration and worship.

For ordinary dragon prodigies, refining even one Dragon Essence was extremely difficult.

Even Long Bichi had only refined two, and both were ordinary Dragon Essences.

But Long Ao had refined seven Dragon Essences at once—essences far more potent than ordinary ones.

This was the power of Long Ao's Emperor Dragon blood—his talent even surpassed some ancient anomalies.

After his earlier defeat at Jun Xiaoyao's hands, Long Bichi's Dao heart had been tainted; her only remaining hope was Long Ao.

Only Long Ao had the qualification to challenge, even defeat, Jun Xiaoyao!

"Elders, Bichi, you've come. By the way, where is my younger brother Hao Tian?" Long Ao scanned the group but did not see his brother Long Hao.

"This… Ao Tian, there's something we didn't tell you because you were in deep seclusion. Now we will."

One Ancestral Dragon Nest elder sighed.

During Long Ao's seclusion, no one had dared disturb him, let alone deliver news.

Thus, during his seclusion, Long Ao knew nothing of external events.

Then, the Ancestral Dragon Nest elders recounted to Long Ao all that had transpired.

Including how his younger brother Long Hao had been killed by Jun Xiaoyao, followed by Princess Long Ji's release from sealing, and her subsequent defeat by Jun Xiaoyao.

After hearing these events, Long Ao's expression turned icy.

A terrifying killing intent surged forth, freezing the very void.

"My brother… died at the hands of that Jun family divine son?" Long Ao's face was cold, golden dragon eyes flashing with lethal light.

"Ao Tian, calm down. With your strength, you will surely have the chance to defeat Jun Xiaoyao someday," said the Ancestral Dragon Nest elder.

"Defeat? Hah. If I merely defeat him, how can I avenge Hao Tian? How can I quench the fire of my rage?" Long Ao's aura erupted violently, seven spectral Ancestral Dragons coiling faintly around him.

A terrifying force poured out in all directions.

"Ao Tian, don't be reckless or underestimate him. Jun Xiaoyao has defeated ancient anomalies—he's not that simple," warned the Ancestral Dragon Nest elder.

He feared Long Ao would underestimate his foe and suffer.

After all, Long Ao had always sailed smoothly, never once experiencing defeat.

"Relax. I won't make such a foolish mistake. But I don't believe Jun Xiaoyao can threaten me."

"This great age shall be ruled by me, Long Ao. Whoever dares provoke me shall die."
