Hu~
The thick spiritual energy flooded the surroundings of the mortal domain cultivators, making them sit down on the spot to cultivate at this incredible opportunity.
A month later, Wu Qingqiu and the others ignored everything as they cultivated at the Thunder Pavilion.
They opened their eyes to find themselves stronger than Invincible Sword of before.
“What did the array do?”
Everyone looked around with joy. Wu Qingqiu teared up. “This doesn’t feel like our home. It’s like our entire world changed. Zhuo Fan had been obsessed with this array for a century, but what did it actually do? It’s just incredible…”
Wu Randong stood up looking grave, “Palace Lord said that this array will connect two worlds, that they would combine at its activation. All this incredible spiritual energy we’re enjoying comes from the other side.”
“The place with the Devil Mountain Zhuo Fan mentioned?”
“Yes!” Wu Randong was grave.
Wu Qingqiu nodded with an excited look. “This is why Devil Mountain disciples were all-powerful, they had the best conditions. It’s all thanks to Zhuo Fan that we now get to enjoy the same treatment when he joined the worlds.”
Wu Randong wasn’t happy at all. “I don’t know for certain, but there has to be a good reason why Palace Lord had us wait for the very last moment until he gave us the signal to activate the array. The worlds might be one now, but we better go find Palace Lord to help him out.”
“Right, we first got to find him. But…” Wu Qingqiu frowned, “Where do we start? Where do we go…”
Wu Randong considered, “I had the disciples of the five lands spread out. With the worlds combining, there has to be common points that should point us the way.”
“I hope so!” Wu Qingqiu sighed, “By the time we locate and reach the new boundary of this new world, brother Zhuo might be gone…”
A blue figure flew high in the sky, going at incredible speed.
An angry shout came, “Damn coot, traitor, stop right there!”
Whoosh~
A golden flame startled the man in blue. Looking back, he threw an azure fire at the golden flame.
Boom!
The clash resulted in grand explosions of flames. The mighty power shook the heavens and broke the earth. The sky sported black holes for thousands of miles.
Even peak Saints weren’t capable of such unbridled destruction.
Whoosh~
The two separated from the clash.
“What are you doing, you crazy old man?” Kunpeng cursed Dragon Ancestor.
“I’ve yet to pay you back from before!”
“What did I do to you? Pay me what?”
“For treason!”
Dragon Ancestor gnashed his teeth. “If not for selling Thunder Phoenix out, we wouldn’t have been stuck in the mortal domain for so long. With all our powers combined…”
“Humph, combine our strengths? You think that’s enough against Heavenly Sovereign?” Kunpeng cut him off with a sneer, “Ignorant fool, you have no idea how bad things were last time. You’re only standing here whining, you lummox. We are only able to survive because we tricked them. Thunder Phoenix sacrifice himself while we feign weakness.”
Dragon Ancestor blinked, “Wait, a trick? What?”
” Thunder Phoenix willingly sacrificed himself. I didn’t sell anyone out.”
Dragon Ancestor shook, baffled. “Is he out of his mind? Giving himself over to Heavenly Sovereign?”
“He wasn’t insane, but upright and honorable. To save everyone, he sacrificed himself. He saw it as honorable and worthwhile. What the hell do you know?” Kunpeng glared and sighed.
Dragon Ancestor was completely taken aback, his rage deflated.
A cold aura came over that snuffed out the remaining flames around. The two cried out, “Sea Ao!”
“Ha-ha-ha, I’m tired of wandering the same North Sea. Now that Heavenly Sovereign’s barrier is gone, I’m free to stretch my legs. Oh, don’t mind me, duke it out, he-he-he…”
The space warped and a one-eyed old man appeared with a grin.
Kunpeng sighed, “Old dragon, Sea Ao, allow me to explain what happened while we go find Zhuo Fan. He had the restriction on the mortal domain removed because he believes in us. He must’ve met with Heavenly Sovereign. We must save him before Heavenly Sovereign kills him and all our suffering will be for naught.”
Kunpeng flew away.
“Tch, to call hiding on a mountain torture…” Dragon Ancestor huffed, but still chose to follow.
They had a common enemy and that took precedence over any betrayal.
Sea Ao shrugged as he joined them.
They flew for three days, and arrived at the boundary of the mortal domain, which touched upon the Sacred Domain. They entered the new world and Kunpeng shrieked while Dragon Ancestor roared.
Whoosh~
Birds flew over and dragons growled as they came in joy.
“Greetings, sir Kunpeng!”
“Greetings, Dragon Ancestor!”
…
“What about me?” Sea Ao felt sour being left out.
Kunpeng snickered, “Sea Ao, don’t mind it. This isn’t the sea so your people aren’t nearby.”
“Right, then let’s go to the sea!”
“Would Zhuo Fan go there though?”
Decimating Dragon Ancestor glanced at the spiritual beasts and dragons. “Listen up, we’re looking for a human called Zhuo Fan. Find him at once!”
One dragon hesitated. “Ancestor, is he the same Zhuo Fan the Luo Clan have for a steward?”
“He was indeed a steward of a tiny clan in the mortal domain. He looked to be enjoy his post too.” Kunpeng nodded. “Do you know where he is?”
The dragon bowed. “Ancestor, sirs, Steward Zhuo said he’s your representative and worked with us to attack Sacred Mountains.”
“Oh, the punk knows how to steal authority. First he left us to rot then he used our name? Preposterous!” Dragon Ancestor raged, “Where is that punk? I’ll string him up and chop him to pieces!”
Sss~
The dragon started. “He isn’t Ancestor’s representative? Curses, he played us for fools! He had two sacred beasts and one calling himself Ancestor’s inheritor so we believed him. We even let them go to the Dragonizing Pool. We’ll go right away and execute those liars!”
“What liars? You can’t tell sacred beasts’ aura from fakes? That inheritor is really that Old Dragon’s disciple!” Kunpeng glanced at Dragon Ancestor.
Dragon Ancestor nodded. “It must be Ye Lin. They are indeed under me. I was just annoyed, but that doesn’t mean you can go wild on them as you please. Lest you have actually grown tired of your heads and fancied removing them from your shoulders.”
“Uh, right…” The dragon flinched and tensed.
[I never knew Ancestor likes to joke around. He almost scared me. Thank heaven I didn’t try anything with those humans.]
“You still haven’t said where Zhuo Fan is. Take us there!”
“Well, about that…” The dragon hesitated.
“What is it this time?”
“All that we know is that Steward Zhuo hasn’t been the same ever since he returned to the Luo Clan. He’s guarded around the clock and no one can see him.”
Kunpeng growled, “He’ll see us, I’ll make sure of that. Come on, we must get a grasp on the situation fast, before Heavenly Sovereign is up to no good.”
The other two nodded and were ready to fly for the Luo Clan at top speed.
“Uhm…” The dragon who spoke before hung his head, with eyes darting everywhere. “There’s also a potentially huge issue.”
Dragon Ancestor snapped, making the dragon flinch, “Stop with your mewling and spit it out already! We’re losing time here!”
Kungpeng added, “What can it be more important than finishing off our greatest enemy?”
The dragon shrunk under the three sacred beasts’ hard stares, unable to take their mighty auras, stronger than even his Dragon Sovereign. “Well, it’s just that a few weeks ago, a sudden blackness appeared out of nowhere that swallowed vast stretches of wilderness. We could get no reaction from it, not sensing any danger or anything that could help us understand its nature, but this all-encompassing blackness weighs heavy on any that gazes upon its vastnesss.”
The trio exchanged a worried and puzzled look.
Kungpeng said, “Since it’s benign, we’ll address the issue after we check up on Zhuo Fan. Handling Heavenly Sovereign takes priority!”
