Chapter 152

When Zulong shouted that cry of "thieving scoundrel," the Shi Metal Qilin, who had been hiding in the Chaos preparing to watch the show, felt a moment of astonishment.

"How did he discover me?"

"I used the Shen Cang Dao Fruit to conceal my own karma. This Water Yao Chenxing Sovereign doesn't seem to be a Great Luo Sovereign either; he shouldn't have been able to discover me!"

The Shi Metal Qilin was utterly baffled. "And where did this 'Weiyuan Society' even pop out from?"

Just how many people have set their sights on the Infinite Heavenly Sovereign?

The Shi Metal Qilin's thoughts moved like lightning. Facing the menacing Zulong, he flashed a smile and thought, *Good thing I was prepared! *

He flicked his sleeve, and a golden light flew out, transforming into an Innate Deity.

Its face was cold and stern, its expression majestic. It wore a crown on its head, a jade belt around its waist like a circling galaxy, a yellow robe embroidered with flying dragons, cloud-patterned shoes on its feet, and it held a golden imperial decree in its hand.

As soon as this Innate Deity appeared, dragon might surged, imperial aura shook the heavens, and infinite golden light illuminated all directions!

In the Chaos, a golden dragon manifestation instantly evolved—a manifestation vast and boundless, numbering in the billions upon billions, impossible to measure.

One could see this golden dragon soaring through the Chaos, its five claws wild and arrogant, its giant mouth wide open. The terrifying power of the Laws enveloped the entire Xuan Tai Universe, as if intending to refine it into a single dragon pearl.

"Despicable thief, you have some nerve!"

Upon seeing that vast dragon might, Zulong's eyes widened in fury. He gripped his Weak Water Divine Sword and charged straight at the Innate Deity.

A deep blue radiance spread through the Chaos. Zulong was currently wearing his Water Yao set: a mysterious water star crown on his head, cloud-treading shoes, a black mist robe, an jade slip in one hand, the Weak Water Divine Sword in the other, and the Weiyuan Chenxing pendant hanging from his waist.

A vast, desolate star rose behind Zulong. Infinite Laws surged, heaven-toppling divine might rolled forth, and three thousand weak waters surged like a sea, galloping like thunder.

【Shi Metal Qilin】, holding the Long Huang's decree, was peerlessly majestic. His aura climbed steadily. He stared at Zulong, his voice like rolling thunder:

"What kind of ant are you, to dare ruin my mood?!"

"And what kind of ant are you?" Zulong stared at the dragon god manifestation opposite him, so angry he began to gnash his teeth. Where did this bastard come from, daring to impersonate his Dragon Clan?!

"Since you have asked with such sincerity, I shall show mercy and tell you."

"I am the Supreme Dragon God of the Primordial True Realm—Zulong!"

【Shi Metal Qilin】's voice was like the profound sound of the Great Dao, resounding through time and space; he was terrified that others wouldn't hear him.

What legitimate deity goes out and announces their own Innate True Name?

Especially when doing something shady—you absolutely have to use someone else's name!

"You are Zulong?"

Zulong laughed in anger upon hearing this.

"Indeed!"

【Shi Metal Qilin】 said, "You outsider god must have little experience; I suppose you wouldn't know my honorable name."

"I, Zulong, am the source of all waters in the infinite time and space, the ancestor of all dragons. All scaled creatures under heaven are under my command!"

"Today, I am in a refined mood, and seeing that this universe has an affinity with me, I have come specifically to claim it."

"If you know what's good for you, get lost and don't disturb my refined mood."

"Source of all waters, ancestor of all scaled creatures?"

Zulong stared at the deity before him and laughed: "What a coincidence. I am the Water Yao Chenxing Sovereign of the Weiyuan Society, in charge of all aquatic true dragons and fish in the Supreme True Realm and all heavenly time and space, as well as snow, hail, frost, and the bringing of clouds and rain;

I am the head of the Five Elements, the root of all living things, and the governance of all seas, rivers, and estuaries belongs to me!"

"You, a fellow in charge of water and dragons, are also within my jurisdiction. You should be kowtowing and kneeling to me!"

【Shi Metal Qilin】 thought, *Good heavens, I thought I was good at bragging, but I didn't expect to meet someone who could brag even better than me. *

*If I hadn't been the first to say I was Zulong, were you planning to impersonate him too? *

*But judging by his tone, he should also be a visitor from the Primordial True Realm, and looking at the scope of his authority, he is practically at odds with the Dragon Clan. *

*Could this be a rival of the Dragon Clan? *

*What a coincidence! *

【Shi Metal Qilin】 stared at Zulong. His dragon robe trembled slightly, and a golden imperial decree appeared in the air, its divine might vast and suppressing all directions.

"Kowtow and kneel?! How arrogant!"

"I, Zulong, am uniquely supreme through the ages, divine in heaven and holy on earth. Who dares to receive a bow from me?"

*Who says no one? I bowed to female cultivators when I was looking for a ladle of weak water—do I have to tell you that... * Zulong inwardly sneered. A fake is a fake; he doesn't understand at all what it means to be the source of all waters and the ancestor of all dragons.

Nor could he possibly understand the mysteries of the three thousand weak waters!

"Enough talk, prepare to die!" Zulong gripped his divine sword and slashed through the air. An unprecedentedly brilliant light erupted, as if intending to shatter the universe, return to Chaos, and recreate a new era!

He had happily descended using a spirit tablet and gone out to hunt while wearing a disguise, only to find that the person opposite him was wearing his own true identity.

Zulong now felt like his home had been robbed.

Therefore, he held nothing back and attacked with full force.

*I want to see who you, this imposter, really are! *

Zulong's gaze was cold as he slashed his sword directly at 【Shi Metal Qilin】.

A Great Dao river, without beginning or end, seemed to freeze time and space. It surged out from the void, its irreversible power shattering every obstacle in its path.

【Shi Metal Qilin】's expression was calm. He held the Long Huang's decree, continuing to simulate vast dragon might to suppress the terrifying impact of the three thousand weak waters.

ROAR!!

In the golden ocean, the massive golden dragon manifestation abandoned the Xuan Tai Universe. It burned like a great sun, its eyes emitting a scorching light.

The golden dragon manifestation spat crimson-gold dragon breath at the Great Dao river. The dragon god flames burned fiercely, actually drying it up in an instant.

ROAR!

The giant golden dragon let out bursts of dragon roars at Zulong, its dragon claws clutching its belly, its dragon eyes revealing a look of contempt, as if provoking Zulong.

"A mere mud loach dares to look down on this Sovereign?"

"Watch how I deal with you!"

Zulong sneered and reached out to unfasten the Weiyuan Chenxing pendant from his waist.

He held it up in the air, and deep blue divine light permeated the heavens.

"Weiyuan Edict, Disperse!"

The Dao sound was profound, the voice like an imperial edict.

A concept beyond, a Dao and Principle that could not be described by specific states, descended upon this place invisibly.

The vast star behind Zulong flickered with strange light—dim, hazy, and uncertain—carrying an indescribable power. The irresistible power of the Rules enveloped the massive golden dragon manifestation.

Under Zulong's edict, this terrifying manifestation evolved from a Dao Fruit developed cracks, which spread rapidly along the patterns of each scale.

The entire vast, boundless golden ocean also began to shatter, like a spiderweb.

Three breaths later, the golden dragon that had been swallowing the universe collapsed with a bang. 【Shi Metal Qilin】's expression remained unchanged. He raised his hand, and the Long Huang's decree unfurled, collecting the dragon scales that looked like broken gold.

"Fellow Daoist, good technique! You have earned my approval." 【Shi Metal Qilin】 looked arrogant, but inwardly he was incredibly shocked. This Water Yao Chenxing Sovereign wasn't just bragging; he really had some substance!

One must know that although he was pretending to be Zulong, the Long Huang's decree in his hand was real.

With the Hunyuan Ding in hand, relying on its ability to reverse the acquired into the innate, the Shi Metal Qilin had spent a great deal of effort to create such a Long Huang's decree, which even Zulong himself didn't possess.

And just a moment ago, the instant Zulong took out the Weiyuan Chenxing pendant, his edict directly suppressed the Long Huang's decree in Shi Metal Qilin's hand.

"This Sovereign said, the god in charge of dragons and water must also kowtow to this Sovereign!"

Everything Zulong said was the truth, and the authority he held was also real. With the Weiyuan pendant in hand, the means he could use under the Shang Chenxing identity were even more numerous than his true self.

If it weren't for the fact that Shi Metal Qilin was currently using his true name, the moment he claimed to be the Water Dragon God, Zulong could have sentenced him to death with the Weiyuan Edict!

*Don't let me find out who you are! *

With an Innate Supreme Treasure in hand, the Shi Metal Qilin shielded all heavenly secrets and karma. He said he was Zulong, so he was Zulong.

Unless Zulong exposed his own disguise right now.

Above the river of time and space.

The Infinite Heavenly Sovereign was now incredibly excited.

"Reincarnation Purple Lotus, good! Very good!"

The Infinite Heavenly Sovereign looked at the purple lotus platform drifting between heaven and earth, a look of greed flashing in his eyes.

No wonder he had encountered Pangu's power when he forcibly broke into the Nine Netherworlds in the past.

So the Lei Ze Da Shen was transformed from the Reincarnation Purple Lotus!

"I was so stupid, really! If I had known the Reincarnation Purple Lotus was in the Nine Netherworlds, I would have risked my life to snatch it!"

Unfortunately, he had been terrified by Pangu's power. After suffering heavy injuries the first time, he hadn't dared to break in a second time.

After all, this was Pangu. What if he were killed by Pangu's power again? Could he survive another era?

"But it doesn't matter, it's not too late now!"

He laughed loudly: "Today my work is complete, and if I get the Reincarnation Purple Lotus and go to the beginning of the creation of the world, I will definitely get even more!"

As for the five deities on the lotus platform, he didn't even put them in his eyes.

They were merely ants.

"Come!"

The Infinite Heavenly Sovereign gave a call, and more than ten phantoms walked out from the river of time and space.

These phantoms included the Fire-Refined Alchemy Realm Heavenly Sovereign, the Treasure Radiance Perfection Heavenly Sovereign, the Faqiao Great Generosity Heavenly Sovereign, the Zhu Ling Crossing Life Heavenly Sovereign...

Yes, Faqiao and Zhu Ling were also dead.

The moment the Heavenly Court changed, they rushed into the Divine Palace to find the Brightness Guangming Shendi.

Before the Guangming Shendi fell into a deep sleep, he used his body as an array and set up a backup plan, taking these two away together.

However, the Infinite Heavenly Sovereign was, after all, the master of this universe; he could completely fish them back from the river of time.

As for whether the deities fished back were still the original ones, that was hard to say.

"Did Brightness commit suicide? What a piece of trash!" The Infinite Heavenly Sovereign hadn't summoned the Brightness Guangming Shendi, thinking the other party had self-destructed rather than be manipulated by him.

"Never mind, these are enough!"

The Infinite Heavenly Sovereign sat in the sea of faith and pointed a finger.

"Go!"

More than ten phantoms rushed into the Xuan Tai Universe.

"My turn!"

Guang Chengzi held Xiang Xuanqing's Three-Treasure Jade Ruyi, stepped on a ray of reincarnation light, and was the first to meet the enemy.

"Treasure! I'm here! Prepare to die, Treasure!"

The Jade Ruyi wailed and struck the Fire-Refined Alchemy Realm Heavenly Sovereign's crown, knocking him over in a single encounter.

"Wow, Treasure, why are you so fragile?"

"Too weak, Treasure!"

"Treasure, remember to practice more in your next life!"

"Fellow Daoist, take him away!" Guang Chengzi looked at Chi Jingzi.

"You got it!"

Chi Jingzi shook the small Taiji Diagram, and a golden bridge flew across time and space. Chi Jingzi stepped on the reincarnation light and flew onto it.

"Yin and Yang rotate, change for me!"

Chi Jingzi pointed at the dizzy Fire-Refined Alchemy Realm Heavenly Sovereign, and the small Taiji Diagram flew out two rays of light, circling around the Fire-Refined one.

"You are now a delicate, watery, five-foot-tall goddess who will cry for a long time after one punch—Water-Refined Yingying Heavenly Sovereign!"

As the words fell, the Fire-Refined Alchemy Realm Heavenly Sovereign, who had just intended to transform into a sea of fire, lost control and was forcibly transformed by the small Taiji Diagram.

Under the black and white light, the tall and burly Fire-Refined Heavenly Sovereign directly turned into an exquisite little loli only 1.5 meters tall.

She had curved willow eyebrows, bright eyes that could hook souls, a straight nose, pink cheeks slightly flushed, cherry lips like dripping cherries, a face like jade, and skin as tender as ice and snow.

She looked around in a daze.

"Take this punch!" Meng Wu You shouted, rushed over, and without mercy, punched Water-Refined in the face.

"WAH!!"

Water-Refined burst into tears.

Crying uncontrollably, a truly tragic sight.
