Chapter 816: Chapter 816 Immortal Dao Flowers Bloom
That was a colossal creature, stretching out like a range of mountains, traversing the heavens and earth. It swam through the void as if riding the wind and cutting through the waves, bringing with it a sweeping divine radiance.
The void split apart because of its presence, parting to both sides like the churning sea.
“A True Dragon!”
In the forbidden land, tens of millions of Venerable Ones stood like clay sculptures, rooted to the spot, dumbfounded as they gazed at the sky. How could such a creature emerge into the world?
One of the Ten Fierce Beasts, who in the world doesn’t know! But wasn’t it extinct? Even if there were one or two of its kind, they shouldn’t be in the Three Thousand States.
That’s right, people realized that this was the vast No-Man’s Land, perhaps a True Dragon Egg left behind from Immortal Ancient had hatched, after all, it was once seen in the ancient times, but alas, never brought out.
“My god, this is a dragon!” Everyone’s eyes widened, this was mythological, an unbelievable legendary creature.
The sky became unstable, as the dragon was too long, immensely thick, dwarfing mountains as it crossed, its emitted aura chilling to the bone, making even hair stand on end.
Atop its head, a pair of forked horns gleamed brilliantly, piercing through the void as it flew. A pair of eyes like two suns, the brilliance emitted was sparking and piercing. Its vast body was adorned with dazzling scales, shimmering with a splendid clear radiance as if cast from Immortal Gold. The dragon’s claws were sharp, its limbs thick, and one could imagine that a single strike could tear a massive hole in the heavens and the earth!
This caused an uproar!
While outside Sect Hierarchs looked on with grave expressions, the Venerable Ones within this forbidden land had spread their arms, many ready to worship. Is this one of the Ten Fierce Beasts?!
The emergence of such a powerful entity was shocking and stirred the hearts of people.
“Whoosh…”
Gales howled, grass and trees were snapped, as the creature crossed many mountain ranges, heading towards the Immortal Dao Flower Bud. This Immortal Flower was blooming, the fundamental reason for its appearance, drawn by the allure of Immortal Ancient.
A gentle light spread out like ripples, eventually turning into a monstrous wave that repelled the creature, pushing it away.
In this place, the sacred light surged, and there were faint drops of blood falling. Although scarce, it still stunned many people. Even it was injured?
The next moment, everyone’s eyes were ablaze with fervor, their gazes fixed on that area with an intensity like torches, all excited beyond measure, unable to resist the urge to rush over.
“Dragon Blood, my god, some True Dragon’s Blood has fallen here!” a Venerable One exclaimed softly, clenching his fists, wishing he could throw himself over there immediately.
Unfortunately, there were three thousand regions divided here, each separated by transparent barriers that many envious people couldn’t cross, not to mention that area surely belonged to the most formidable, and ordinary Venerable Ones could only march to their deaths.
“What a great fortune, it drives one mad!”
Some Primordials roared. Even beings as transcendent as they were couldn’t sit still and began to rise to penetrate the barriers and compete for it.
Shi Hao sighed, feeling incredibly unlucky, because he was definitely not close to that place, separated by several regions. By the time he got there, the opportunity would have already passed.
Only those nearby were excited and exhilarated. They had a chance to compete!
“Hahaha…” In the region where the Dragon Blood fell, someone laughed loudly and ostentatiously, euphorically carefree.
It was a man with blue hair, handsome of face, exotic, and otherworldly. He was powerful, with an aura that made the Venerable Ones of this state tremble, daring not to approach.
“Fortune falls from the sky, the Dragon Blood belongs to me, the Celestial Demon Ge Qian. Who dares to contend with me?”
He was tall and robust, his skin fair as white jade, his demonic aura striking, his blue hair billowed like an ocean surge, with waves emerging from his hair exuding a force that made mountains tremble.
Celestial Demon, Heavenly Monarch… among those in the Venerable Realm, creatures that dare to be associated with the word “Celestial” are the cream of the crop among the young supremes, invincible in all directions.
Clearly, this person was extremely terrifying. The moment he spoke, silence fell in all directions.
He swiftly pounced towards the mountains where the Dragon Blood fell, his eyes emitting deep blue beams of light, dazzling and incomparable, piercing through many rocks, nothing could obstruct his path.
However, his heightened emotions did not last long. With continuous dragons chanting, that huge creature that had initially flown away had actually returned, hovering here, gathering Divine Power, ready to strike at the Immortal Dao Flower Bud once more.
Momentarily after, his expression changed; the shadow cast from the sky engulfed him. Particularly, that enormous creature coldly glanced downward, giving him a look.
Those icy pupils, barely smaller than the mountains themselves, sent chills all over his body, causing him to stop in his tracks instantly, not daring to approach any closer.
He gritted his teeth and eventually made a decisive retreat, directly giving up on the Dragon Blood despite being so close!
“There are things one should do, and things one shouldn’t; knowing when to advance or retreat, discerning fortunes and misfortunes. This is the most essential quality of a supreme prodigy,” he comforted himself in this way.
Clearly, this was an extraordinary person. Under these circumstances, not only did he stop, but he also pierced through realm barriers without looking back, not waiting for another chance at all.
Because, he had a premonition that it would be best to leave.
“Ao…”
A dragon chant startled the mountains and rivers, that huge creature surpassing the mountains began to dive again, approaching the Immortal Dao Flower Bud. Despite being suppressed and severely injured, it had not given up.
After it left, many figures appeared in that area; nearby powerhouses rushed over, some piercing through realm barriers, prodigious beings of the heavens!
This place belonged to the Primordial, where the top figures would contest for the True Dragon’s Blood!
“This fortune has just brushed past me. Are you all in such a hurry to be reborn, vying for it?” Celestial Demon Ge Qian glanced back but ultimately did not return.
He traveled at an extreme speed, piercing through several realm barriers before descending to the ground.
“Is there a Primordial in this region? Those who pledge allegiance to me, if strong enough, I will take you into Immortal Ancient,” Ge Qian shouted.
Shi Hao was speechless; the distance between them was not far. Could the first battle be about to start?
Because this Celestial Demon had an overwhelming demonic aura, clearly exuding confidence and arrogance, whereas Shi Hao would never bow to anyone.
Naturally, Celestial Demon Ge Qian sensed Shi Hao’s strength. His Divine Sense was extraordinary, and he aimed to recruit terribly powerful subordinates so that they could survive better upon entering Immortal Ancient.
In fact, in the region he was in, several of the strongest had already submitted to him.
Boom!
With a Celestial Demon’s might shaking the heavens, storming the clouds, Ge Qian focused on Shi Hao, his deep blue pupils casting beams of light miles away. He stepped forward, immensely wicked as he said, “I am very easy to get along with, come with me.”
Shi Hao did not underestimate him; although this person had not said it, he was definitely powerful, surely a young supreme from one of the states, perhaps surpassing all opponents!
“I am a Celestial Demon; following me is your honor,” the blue-haired youth said arrogantly.
A thought struck Shi Hao’s mind, Celestial Demon, Heavenly Monarch… these were definitely the top-level titles. Those who dare to use such titles in the Venerable Realm were beyond extraordinary.
“Ao…”
Suddenly, a dragon scream came from afar, Dragon Blood splattered again, unable to withstand the flower bud containing Three Thousand Great Dao, and was repelled back.
“Immortal Ancient, I will enter!”
It was a majestic Divine Sense, roaring with anger but not launching a forceful attack because it had suffered unimaginable severe injuries and was heading into the distance.
Moreover, on each side of its body, it stretched out a pair of wings that were dazzling with light, covering the sky and obscuring the sun. As they flapped, they shattered the heavens.
“This is not one of the Ten Fierce Beasts!”
Everyone was certain of it, because True Dragons are wingless and do not have this form.
People knew it had suffered extremely severe trauma, having to rely on its dragon wings to leave. It indicated just how serious the aftermath of the earlier clash was.
In the last moments before it left, it let out a roar, and all the cultivators in the area it passed were frozen. It was emitting Dragon’s Majesty, and with its breath, it imprisoned heaven and earth.
It was venting its rage!
Even the strong Celestial Demon, Ge Qian, could not move, showing an unusual expression. He cursed inwardly about his misfortune, that even hiding here, he had suffered a setback.
However, the most unbelievable thing happened, as the sky darkened with a massive descending object.
“What’s falling down, dragon scales? No, it’s a wide expanse of Dragon Blood?!”
In the distance, many people were envious because they could not see clearly across several areas, so they all shouted, while the mightiest from various regions began to cross boundaries, rushing over swiftly.
Only the creatures from the neighboring areas were stunned– it was actually… a pile — of Dragon Manure!
Especially Celestial Demon Ge Qian, who was looking up eagerly, turned pale when he saw it clearly, but he was unable to move.
This area was confined by the Dragon’s breath.
Shi Hao was also panicked, as dragon manure descended from heaven, targeting their location.
“I @#Y=#@…” many cultivators cursed, unable to hold back their profanity.
This ferocious dragon, in their eyes, was an invincible expert, yet it did such a thing before leaving, way too casual…
“No, don’t!” Celestial Demon Ge Qian screamed in misery.
“Help!” For the first time, Shi Hao was truly alarmed, and with difficulty, he moved his finger to take out the Void Halberd, his forehead sweating profusely, as he ripped open the void.
Celestial Demon did the same, moving his finger, but the weapon at hand was not sealed in his palm. He looked at Shi Hao with eyes brimming with tears, hoping to be taken along.
“I’ll come back later to discuss the issue of who takes whom.” Shi Hao ran off without turning back.
“No, don’t!” Ge Qian screamed despairingly, his handsome yet bizarre face filled with hopelessness and helplessness.
“Plop!”
The pile of Dragon Manure, as large as a small mountain, fell into the forested area, filling a large swath of land, and many cultivators screamed in horror as several Venerables were buried.
In the distance, the Sect Hierarchs looked solemn. It was not a True Dragon, but it was close, an absolutely defiant and strong being.
“Ying Long!” declared the Hierarch of the Sky Severing Sect.
Yet, no one would have thought that such a powerful creature would do something so ridiculous in the end.
“This isn’t right; the dragon did it on purpose. Is it leaving its scent on some, for the future, using it to determine coordinates to forcefully enter Immortal Ancient later on?”
…
In the forbidden zone, Ying Long had departed into the distance. From that mountain-sized pile of Dragon Manure, a group of people rushed out, led by none other than the Celestial Demon.
“Aaaah…” He screamed incessantly.
Shi Hao came back and said to him, “You want to take me?”
“Take your ass, like this, being your boss, watched by you guys every day, where can I put my face?! None of you saw me, dare to spread it, I’ll kill you all!” Celestial Demon Ge Qian ran; he had gone mad and dove straight into a large lake.
The young Supreme Ones who pierced through the boundary and arrived here were stunned, expecting a grand boon but instead witnessing such a scene.
“Actually, no need to wash off; this Dragon Manure is a kind of great medicine, which can be used to refine precious pills,” said a Venerable who just arrived, smiling cheerfully at the others who had escaped their predicament.
This Venerable is a powerful apothecary, one of the Primordial ones!
The others were dumbfounded, while those who freed themselves were on the brink of madness.
“Don’t force me to kill you!” Celestial Demon’s harsh voice came from afar as he fled, unwilling to be seen.
“Thump!”
In the sky, the most splendid light bloomed, with auspicious clouds covering the sky, as the last petal finally unfurled, with the Immortal Dao Flower Bud fully blooming.
In just an instant, fragrance filled the air, and three thousand paths of the road extended towards three thousand regions, with all Venerables going crazy, rushing upwards.
Unfortunately, many were repelled as they neared, unable to ascend.
Whoosh, a divine rainbow broke through the sky, and someone stepped onto the road, the first to be enveloped by the mist, carried and drawn into a portal on a petal.
“Such a stroke of luck after a Dragon Manure incident, it’s that Celestial Demon!”
Many Venerables grumbled indignantly.
At this moment, everyone was shocked, including those ancient freaks, with complex expressions on their faces, because the one who entered first was bound to be greatly fortunate.
“Boom!”
Finally, around five million cultivators, wrapped in the light, rushed towards the flower of the Immortal Dao, successfully ascending, approaching Immortal Ancient.
“The Six-Crowned King, Successor of Immortal Hall, Gu Jianyun, Jun Tao… I see them, in the front ranks of those who charged in!”
In the distance, a cultivator shouted out.
Some Sect Hierarchs’ eyes flickered, watching closely!
Besides, there was a Ying Long, with a deep gaze, watching the blooming of the Immortal Dao Flower Bud near No-Man’s Land, and next to it, a large group of terrifying creatures.
“Who will ascend to supremacy, the battle of geniuses from Three Thousand States has begun!” someone cried out.
