Chapter 604
The Dao heirs of the Five Cavernous Heavens!
Even merely mentioning them made Huang Huang Longzi's heart flutter, but seeing the figures by the cliff merely frown at each other, seemingly unmoved, he couldn't help but sigh.
In this world, sealed off by the Eight Temples, their vision is utterly closed off; they cannot even comprehend life stars, let alone understand the weight of a Sacred Dao heir.
Had he spoken these words on any life star of Tian Shi Yuan, the listener would have been ecstatic—unlike now…
"Poisonous Dragon Academy…"
Li Yuan unconsciously glanced at the Dragon Lord, who happened to glance back at him.
"So what?"
Long Long Yingchan pinched his long eyebrows and cut in coldly: "Is the great matter you speak of merely to seduce my disciple away before my very eyes?"
Hū~ The moment Long Long Yingchan spoke, the snow and wind by the cliff froze for an instant; Long Xi Xiang and Nie Xianshan both grimaced, their bodies surging with lethal aura.
With that, he vanished into the snowstorm, his speed so swift it made the Dragon Lord clench his long eyebrows tightly.

Long Long Yingchan lightly plucked his long eyebrows, paused in thought, then looked at Li Yuan:
"Pity Elder Qin is not here."
Cosmic wonders…
Long Long Yingchan gave no answer: "Is it because of Li Yuan? Or because of the Eight Temples?"
"What my younger brother says has merit, but Huang Huang Longzi may not be trustworthy."
"Whether the Poisonous Dragon God has the power to rescue us is uncertain—do you truly believe you can speak for the Poisonous Dragon God?"
"Tian Shi Yuan reveres the Five Cavernous Heavens as supreme; if there truly exists a Po Fa Jie Zhi Fa to resolve the Tian Ri calamity, it must lie within these five houses. If I am to seek the Po Fa Jie Zhi Fa, I will most likely need to join one of the Five Cavernous Heavens."
Long Long Yingchan felt regretful—he had been searching for Huang Huang Longzi's weaknesses all along, but the latter was too cautious, leaving almost no openings.
"Hah~"
"I was just thinking—Li Xiaozi joining the Poisonous Dragon Academy might not be such a bad path."
"…"
"The Poisonous Dragon Academy is merely one of the Five Cavernous Heavens, and even if one chooses to join it, there's no need to deal with Huang Huang Longzi."
"You've surely heard about the Tian Ri calamity from my sister, but I can add some details even she doesn't know."
The three's hostility was unmasked, as if they were about to strike at any moment—but Huang Huang Longzi acted as if he noticed nothing, merely raising his black umbrella, his smile fading as he turned solemn:
"Your suspicions are not unfounded, Elder. I won't hide it from you—in normal times, I lack the qualification to offer worship to the Venerable God, but with Li Dao friend here, the Venerable God will surely respond."
Nie Xianshan frowned deeply, clearly displeased: "This is clearly just an excuse by this old man to contact the Poisonous Dragon Academy—surely you don't believe it?"
In fact, over the past three years, aside from training, cultivation, and listening to sounds, he spent most of his time pondering this matter.
Li Yuan looked toward Longshan, where in a certain small courtyard, a disciple of the Poisonous Dragon Academy was imprisoned.
"…"
Huang Huang Longzi was not angered; he merely bowed to Li Yuan, ignoring the cold stares of Long Long Yingchan and the other three, and smiled:
This book one p>
Nie Xianshan was momentarily speechless.
"So he still wants to worship the Poisonous Dragon God!"
Long Long Yingchan was unsurprised; he merely nodded, signaling him to continue.
Nie Xianshan suddenly sneered: "You mean, if Li Xiaozi joins the Poisonous Dragon Academy, your damn Poisonous Dragon God will come to rescue us?"
Feeling the suspicion from those by the cliff, Huang Huang Longzi's eyelid twitched—he felt utterly drained.
"The Eight Temples are mysterious and uncanny, You Jing is perilous beyond measure, the path to Tian Shi Yuan will be excruciatingly difficult… Even with Daoist Tianyun Daoist Tianyun Xuanbing at his side, how hard will Li Xiaozi's journey be?"
"What do you think?"
With Huang Huang Longzi's words, not only Long Long Yingchan and the others, but even Li Yuan himself was startled, his mind buzzing with doubt.
To this, whether him, Pang Pang Wenlong, or the Dragon Lord, all firmly refused. Long Xi Xiang patted Li Yuan's shoulder, ignoring Nie Xianshan's scowl, and sighed softly:
Take a look!
Seeing him speak, Huang Huang Longzi finally relaxed inside: "Even deities cannot erase the Tian Ri calamity, but with divine power, rescuing a few people from it is certainly possible."
"Is that so?"
Watching Huang Huang Longzi's figure vanish, Long Xi Xiang—who had remained silent until now—spoke:
"This…"
Huang Huang Longzi clearly heard the mockery and doubt in his tone, but paid no mind; he merely nodded, his gaze never leaving Li Yuan:
"Brother, how much of his words do you believe?"
"If you truly understand what a divine-level talent means, you'll realize Li Dao friend's worth far outweighs the threats of the imperial court or the Yun Mo clan!"
"Exactly!"
Long Long Yingchan raised a point, then shifted topic: "Huang Huang Longzi mentioned the Yun Mo clan just now—this cannot be ignored."
The latter pinched his long white eyebrows, his gaze dark and deep:
Huang Huang Longzi was about to speak further, but Long Long Yingchan raised a hand to cut him off.
"Huang Huang Longzi cannot be trusted; neither can this Chilian."
In fact, over these three years, the Chilian imprisoned on Longshan had said similar things many times.
"And even if he reaches Tian Shi Yuan, he has no allies—how will he find the Po Fa Jie Zhi Fa?"
"Hm?"
Huang Huang Longzi's expression flickered, then returned to normal:
"Mm."
"The greatest danger in entering the Dao is taking a wrong step—often, one misstep wastes a hundred years. Li Dao friend, with his astonishing talent, surely understands this!"
"His presence is faint, as if here yet absent; he seems to be within this space, yet in truth he is hundreds of li away. This old fellow is extremely cautious!"
"If you are willing, this poor Daoist is willing to contact the Venerable God of the Poisonous Dragon on your behalf..."
Long Long Yingchan's brows knitted tightly, his face looking extremely displeased: "Even gods cannot resist?"
Nie Xianshan sheathed his sword, and the killing intent on his body subsided:
Long Xi Xiang ignored him, merely looking at Long Long Yingchan. The latter frowned slightly: "Junior brother, speak directly."
After a moment of silence, just as the Yellow Dragon Elder wanted to speak again, the Daoist Lord waved his hand to dismiss them. "Then this poor Daoist shall await your good news."
Li Yuan felt a slight chill in his heart, yet he was not too surprised.
Through the wind and snow, the Yellow Dragon Elder glanced at the four great suns hanging high above the sea of clouds: "The Eight Directions Temple is said to be a 'cosmic wonder.' The so-called calamity of the heavenly suns is merely one corner of this wonder. Its terrifying power is such that even gods cannot resist..."
"Hmph!"
Li Yuan naturally had no intention of hiding it.
These natives have no idea at all what a god-demon level aptitude means...
"This matter is of great consequence; we must deliberate at length. If you do not mind, you may rest for a while in Hengshan City..."
"How much more?"
"Does Senior Brother mean that the imperial court is already preparing to sacrifice the Cloud Demon Clan?"
Nie Xianshan's expression darkened.
"The Yellow Dragon Elder's words may be true or false, but we cannot fail to guard against them."
Long Long Yingchan released his two trembling long eyebrows, lightly pinched the space between his brows, and spoke with an inexplicable tone: "It is time to see the true outcome."
