Chapter 1101 - 557: Out of the Cage (Part 2)
Therefore, from then on, Peng Ju came to realize.
He no longer contended with the Mystic Sect for any heavenly and earthly treasures, nor cared about the growth and expansion of Qingcheng Mountain Gate. He focused solely on emulating Lingxu, aiming to exchange for a more potential Dao Body, under the company’s ’Heavenly Destiny’ protection, with the opportunity to leave this fishpond and move toward a broader, boundless world.
Of course, Peng Ju’s success or failure will not be elaborated upon, returning to the company’s wetware testing.
Lingxu mentioned that before him, the company repeatedly experimented with the Taiji Heaven combat Dao Body, once completing the conceptual design of the prototype, finalizing the design, and validating the concept.
Unfortunately, during the concept implementation test phase, a severe runaway accident occurred, completely destroying not only the samples for pre-mass testing, the conceptual design drawings, but also the entire project team. At the last critical moment, the effort was in vain, completely failed.
Today, stimulated by the Nine Sons Yin Thunder, Chen Xuantian recalled these trivial matters, and suddenly understood.
If he guessed correctly, the ’concept implementation test machine’ Lingxu was obsessed with was probably Thunder Ancestor.
It can’t be wrong. Whether Yuqingzi or Lingxu, being so familiar with the company’s matters, able to have such exchanges with the company, they know the truth and blueprint behind the world’s scenes. Only one possibility exists.
Thunder Ancestor, along with Thunder Ancestor’s four disciples, and even today’s so-called inheritance of Hu Temple, is the second-generation combat prototype developed by the company in Taiji World following Immortal Venerable.
As for the ’concept’ they were testing, it’s probably the biological energy weapon akin to the nuclear bomb-level ’Nine Sons Yin Thunder’?
And ultimately, the project’s failure during the test phase probably refers to the astonishing event of the Mystic Sect’s rebellion. The Dragon Clan’s uprising was also presumably a test, a test of Thunder Ancestor.
Hmm, initially Chen Xuantian also thought it referred to the Divine Lord, but upon reflection, he realized he was foolish.
The Divine Lord successfully ascended, didn’t he? The Divine Sect wasn’t remarkable and flamboyant; how can that be considered a failure? Thunder Ancestor was the one who failed, wasn’t he? Look among the Three Venerables; there’s no Thunder Ancestor. How many people are still thundering nowadays...
"Boom!!!"
Suddenly, a lightning bolt smashed down, jolting Chen Xuantian out of his chaotic thoughts, looking up to the sky.
Alright, alright, stop overthinking it; see, the Thunder Clan is angry, and the heavens are thundering.
Lightning raced across the sky dome, thunder roared, as if piercing through the giant serpent’s lair, countless blinding electric serpents crazily surged from all directions, tearing the entire sky into fragile porcelain.
No, it’s not the lake surface’s reflection, it’s a sky as clear as wash! Water and sky are connected! The lake water overhead has been blown away directly by a mighty green wind!
Indeed, the wind! A blue wind blows from all directions! It spurts out from the Sealing Dragon Array! Lifting tons of lake water, causing overlying clouds to soar!
Like an inverted galaxy, a reverse waterfall, the wind sweeps the water and erupts upwards straight to the green clouds! Forming a giant storm, connecting Yunmeng and the starry sky into one, transforming into a sky-reaching green storm pillar!
Yes! This fierce green wind is unprecedented! The unprecedentedly dense demon qi dragon breath! Lord Yun Meng’s dragon breath, accumulated over sixty-five hundred years, alongside the array’s activation, releases through the sealing crack! Like a volcanic eruption! Pouring out violently! Blasting and blowing away all Han White Jade and Jade Tiles like straw!
The mighty demonic power storm propels tons of lake water into the sky! Straight to the clouds! Forming an unparalleled demon qi storm with the Sealing Dragon Array as its core’s eye, sweeping the entire Yunmeng Swamp into this tempest!
Even Chen Xuantian, positioned within the storm’s eye at this moment, felt an intimidation that shakes the soul! Fear rooted in the primal memories of primates, emanating from the heart, shivering under the dragon aura!
The gate is about to open!
The true dragon is about to be born!
"Boom!"
Yet, Heavenly Dao doesn’t permit!
In an instant! The blue-white electric light illuminating the demon qi-stained green sky turned it into daylight! Lightning split open the azure sky to the utmost, blazing lightning casting the world white! Thunder as robust as mountains pierced through Jiuxiao, spanning across the sky dome! Like the absolute supreme ruler behind the heavenly curtain, opening their vertical pupils! Unleashing an awe-inspiring celestial might, casting down a silent gaze upon the true dragon daring to challenge heavenly might!
Sandwiched in the tumultuous confrontation between dragon aura and celestial might, it was as if two invisible giant mountains collided mid-air. Chen Xuantian had to retreat temporarily, retracting his primordial spirit, sitting cross-legged in meditation, to prevent his primordial spirit from being devastated by these two destructive pressures! Ground into powder!
And upon a glance, through the surging Qi Wall and water curtain, one could see fish shoals rolling from all directions, demon tides like waves, the water clan within the Dragon Palace urgently leaping, fleeing frantically! Even the Toad Queen couldn’t stay put, mingling among the schools of fish, shrimp, and crabs, escaping Yunmeng, fleeing south to Li River to evade calamity!
Indeed, in the face of the Dragon King’s emergence, there’s not a hint of joy! It’s simply desperate escape! Seeking refuge!
They no longer guard the array, the city is abandoned, even if they know formidable demon enemies await outside, it’s ignored! Swarming, abandoning helmets and armor, forsaking city while fleeing! No loyal minister comes to pay homage to their king.
But also understandable, monsters are foolish but not stupid, no one desires to face such annihilating Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder, nor seek death under the nine realms of heavenly punishment. Moreover, should the Dragon King truly withstand the tribulation thunder and emerge, it would indeed be impending disaster.
