Chapter 40 The Seas Boil, Ancestral Land of the Dragon Clan
“That is… Lord Zhulong of the Dragon Clan!”
“Hiss! Zhulong is actually being hunted!”
“A Taiyi Golden Immortal is striking against a Daluo (Great Luo) — who is this person!”
“The Dragon Clan has occupied the Four Seas for millions of years, yet today, they’re being relentlessly attacked right in their own lair, looking so frantic and desperate!”
The relentless chase caused countless living beings to tremble. The Three Innate Tribes were incredibly domineering, especially the Dragon Clan, the strongest among them!
Back then, it was the Patriarch Dragon who first conceived the method of gathering merits for the Scale Armor Clan to break through to Quasi-Sage level. The Primordial Phoenix and the First Qilin were merely imitators.
But now, right here in the East Sea, the Dragon Clan’s stronghold, Zhulong was being chased relentlessly. All who sensed this scene were utterly shocked!
The Dragon Clan’s second-in-command, Zhulong, a late-stage Daluo Golden Immortal, was being hunted down with nowhere to turn by a mysterious Taiyi Golden Immortal. This completely overturned their understanding!
“Almost there! Almost there!”
Just as Zhulong was on the verge of despair, the familiar sea area finally appeared within his perception. The magnificent, imposing, and heavily guarded Crystal Palace stood like a lighthouse in the dark night, rekindling Zhulong’s last hope!
“As long as I return to the Crystal Palace and use the clan’s great formation and my brother’s strength, I can surely…”
Zhulong’s heart had just ignited with a sliver of hope when suddenly he sensed the aura behind him closing in again!
“Prepare to die!”
Chu Yuan’s cold voice rang in his ears like the sentence of death!
At the critical moment, Zhulong finally broke through in a battered state and rushed into the Crystal Palace’s defense range. A piercing dragon roar echoed through the sky, and the already alerted Dragon Clan immediately reacted.
“Hum—!”
The innate formation guarding the Crystal Palace instantly activated to its fullest, billions of runes flowing, forming an impenetrable light barrier.
At the same time, the palace gates swung open, and thousands of mighty true dragons roared as they charged out. Among these thousands of true dragons, even the weakest were at least Taiyi Golden Immortals.
And this only counts those guarding the Crystal Palace itself, not including the dragon clan’s strong warriors stationed elsewhere. Not to mention the powerful scaly-armored warriors led by the dragon clan.
This alone reveals the profound foundation of the dragon clan. Leading them was a figure bearing a divine monument, resembling a Black Tortoise. It was none other than Baxia, one of the famous nine sons of the dragon clan, with Fuxi behind him!
Two Great Luo Golden Immortals!
“Who dares to chase my second uncle and trespass the Crystal Palace? Seeking death!”
“Kill!”
With Baxia’s command, the overwhelming dragon might surged into the sky!
Countless magical treasures converged into a devastating torrent, like the Milky Way pouring down from the heavens, sweeping towards Chu Yuan, who had just reached the formation’s front!
This ultimate strike, combining the power of thousands of Taiyi true dragons and presided over by two Great Luo Golden Immortals, was enough to pulverize any Great Luo Golden Immortal!
However, facing this world-destroying attack, Chu Yuan still stood in midair, his expression unchanged.
“A flicker of fire dares to compete with the bright moon?”
He didn’t even use the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus for defense, only pushing his internal 【Xuanhuang Merit Undying Body】 to the extreme!
A towering giant appeared again, with three heads and six arms, wrapped in Xuanhuang light, protected by golden aura. The Gu corpse inside his acupoints also exerted power!
Five Great Luo Golden Immortals!
One hundred and eight Taiyi Golden Immortals!
With the endless might empowered, in an instant, he broke through the limit of the power that a Da Luo Golden Immortal could exert. Divine light dazzled brilliantly, illuminating all directions!
Then a fist was thrown!
On the fist, yin and yang converged, the Four Symbols churned, the Five Elements circulated!
That torrent of attack, powerful enough to destroy everything, actually disintegrated layer by layer like paper in front of this single punch. Immediately following, the momentum did not diminish, carrying the might as if to split heaven and earth, it struck heavily forward.
“Pop! Pop! Pop!…”
Sounds like bursting bubbles echoed continuously!
Dozens of Taiyi True Dragons that were hit directly by the giant hand did not even have time to scream, instantly exploding into a blood mist that filled the sky, their dragon souls utterly destroyed!
More than one third of the True Dragons suffered injuries of varying severity. Fu Xi, unable to dodge in time, was also affected, spitting a mouthful of fresh blood.
One strike!
Just one strike!
And over a hundred Taiyi True Dragons were annihilated!
What kind of terrifying power was this?
All the dragons, including Zhu Long who had just barely escaped disaster and was hiding behind the broken formation, were terrified to their core by Chu Yuan’s overwhelmingly domineering, devastating blow!
Just as Chu Yuan retracted his palm, preparing to strike again and directly slay this group of dragons, a vast, ancient, solemn, and supreme will—seemingly above all things and subtly in harmony with heaven and earth—slowly spread out from the deepest part of the Crystal Palace, like a sleeping giant awakening…
“Stop.”
A calm yet supremely authoritative voice resounded from the hearts of all beings present.
The Ancestral Dragon had finally appeared!
