d silently hurried to the next location.With the help of Wind-Whispering Grass, Lin Qi buried a total of sixteen second-rank formation disks.To deal with a Foundation Establishment cultivator, at leas...Seeing this scene before her, Gong Qi thought to herself that she was right all along.
The chains binding to the demon dragon are consuming its flesh and blood.
Palace Seven unleashed her full power with a sword strike, but failed to completely sever the chains. She only managed to break a small opening.
But this chain itself is a high-grade fairy artifact. Once there's a crack in it, its power will be greatly reduced.
The demonic dragon seized the opportunity immediately, madly gathering strength to pull.
Click!
Gong Qi watched as the gap in the chain was instantly torn apart. The demon dragon leaped out of Kon Long Tan, holding onto the remaining half of the chain, and soared into the sky.
A chorus of mournful and enraged dragon roars echoed through the heavens.
The water in Kunlun Lake also boiled.
A rumble of thunder echoed from above, lightning flashing across the sky, as if it were about to tear this very heavens apart.
Gong Qi emerged from the water and saw a black shadow dodging around, evading the thunderbolts falling from the sky.
Tianze Immortal... is this your virtue
Palace Seven's heart was filled with countless questions.
At the same time, Tianze Immortal seemed to sense her presence, a pair of dark eyes gazing directly at Gong Qi.
At their meeting of eyes, Gong Qi could clearly see a spark of excitement in Tian Ze Xian's gaze.
A wave of icy coldness swept over his consciousness, and alarm bells rang in his mind.
No, he's going to take possession!
Gong Qi is all too familiar with this kind of thing.
But before Tianze Immortal's soul could invade Gong Qi's sea of consciousness, a light blue-gold glow appeared between Gong Qi's eyebrows, sending Tianze Immortal flying back.
Tianze Immortal let out a heart-wrenching shriek, his sleeves billowing as he vanished into thin air.
Gong Qi captures no trace of Tianze Immortal's aura.
Only the newly-born demon dragon, with its fiery breath, was seen weaving through the black clouds above, roaring incessantly.
This roar, now has excitement, anger, exhilaration... too many complex emotions.
Gong Qi raised his hand to touch his brow, unable to help but feel a shiver of fear.
The mark between her brows was a protective charm planted by her mother before she came to the Chaotic Realm, using the divine flower of protection. It was to prevent a powerful being from taking over her body one day.
As the attacks subsided, the mark of the Spirit Guarding Flower gradually faded.
Lightning flashed overhead, thunder roared, and black clouds covered the sky as a demonic dragon weaved through them.
Looking at this scene, Gong Qi couldn't help but wonder if this demonic dragon was truly a being burdened with countless sins and karmic debts
However, there was no trace of heavenly energy within the thunderclap above, indicating that it was not a punishment from heaven.
This is also why Gong Qi didn't run away at the first time.
After an unknown amount of time, the demon dragon's cultivation slowly recovered, and its lost flesh and blood were visibly replenished.
Its black dragon scales slowly faded, revealing the vibrant crimson ones beneath, shimmering with an inner light.
Gong Qi was startled, "It's actually an ancient Fire Cloud Dragon…"
This does not mean that the Yao Long is an ancient dragon.
In ancient times, the Fire Cloud Dragon was a particularly powerful branch of the dragon clan.
The dragon race, having gone through numerous hardships over the ages, is the only one that still retains its ancient bloodline.
In the dragon clan, the Shanggu Huoyunlong's position was about the same as that of the Binghuang in the Phoenix clan.
But back then, the Ice Phoenix Clan sheltered all the offspring from the Three Thousand Worlds, preserving more bloodlines and solidifying their status as a dominant clan.
The dragon clans were fractured during several major disasters, each branch ruling independently and vying for power.
The ancient Firecloud Dragon clan was not so fortunate, leaving only a few bloodlines scattered across the Three Realms, extremely rare.
If not for Gong Qi's wide knowledge, he would have been unable to recognize the ancient Fire Cloud Dragon at first glance.
After a moment, the ancient Fire Cloud Dragon above vanished and transformed into a red-haired, black-eyed female cultivator who fell to the ground.
Gong Qi's gaze fell on the female cultivator's exposed skin.
The surface was crisscrossed with numerous wounds, deep enough to be seen to the bone, and horrifying to behold.
The female cultivator's voice was hoarse, and her face was very pale. "Thank you, young friend, for your help."
Palace Seven cautiously asked, "Senior, are you from the ancient Fire Cloud Dragon clan How did you end up trapped here"
Palace Seven shifted his gaze, looking at the still intact Kunlun Dragon Monument beside him. The words carved on its surface were clear and visible.
"This Kǒnglóng Bēi... what exactly is going on"
"My name is Lijun…"
Palace Seven's pupils shrank, and she instinctively asked, "Senior, do you know a cultivator named Chi"
When he saw her face, Li Jun was startled, "Chi... that's my daughter."
Palace Seven inhaled sharply.
After Gong Qi rescued Chi, the Tenth Princess sent her some information about Chi as a gesture of thanks. The information included the record that Chi's biological mother was named Li Jun.
Because she put a green hat on the Wolf Emperor, Gong Qi was quite familiar with the name Li Jun.
In the eyes, ravaged by separation and weariness, flickered a complex mix of emotions.
"Back then, I sent her to the Six-Winged Silver Wolf clan of Cold Eyes. I wonder how she's been all these years..."
Actually, when I asked that question, I knew it was a bad idea.
Back then, time was fleeting. The trap she set was too shallow. As long as the Wolf King investigated carefully, Chi's identity would be exposed, and naturally, there would be no good days to come.
"I am a cultivator from the Ice Phoenix clan. I was on a diplomatic mission to the Six-Winged Cold Eye Silver Wolf clan when I happened upon Princess Ten of the wolf clan punishing an escaped slave. I saved the slave on a whim, and that person is Chi."
Gong Qi once again briefly explained a few things about Chi, after Li Jun listened, his face was quite moved.
Gong Qi took a look at her, "Are the injuries on your senior's body serious"
Li Jun sighed and knew his own condition best.
"Trapped on Kunlun Mountain for a thousand years, my wounds are difficult to recover from in a short time."
She took two slow steps forward and saw the Dragon Binding Monument in front of her. She suddenly let out a cold snort.
"Demon Dragon... it's clearly that demonic Taoist! Twisting right and wrong, defying the Heavenly Stems!"
Palace Seven stood quietly to the side, feeling the ebb and flow of Li Jun's breath.
Apparently, Li Jun is very angry.
"Isn't that dark figure the master of this fairy mansion, Tianze Immortal"
"A hermit He deserves that title" Li Jun's eyes darkened, and his breath became a little hurried.
"Back then, when he ascended, he was defeated by the tribulation thunder. In order to keep a glimmer of hope, he used his means to make all the cultivators in the sect bear the tribulation thunder for him. He miraculously saved his life, but became a half-alive, half-dead being."
Palace Qiyue appeared composed on the surface, but inwardly, his heart was turbulent.
This melon is kind of big.
"You said you were trapped in the Kunlun Lake for a thousand years... But it has been tens of thousands of years since Tianze Immortal ascended."
Li Jun's face showed a trace of melancholy and emotion: "Back then, I fell in love with a serpent. Our love was forbidden by the ancient Fire Cloud Dragon clan, and we were pursued relentlessly. During the chase, the serpent was severely wounded and on the brink of death. I was pregnant at the time."
By a stroke of luck, I encountered the Wolf King of the Six-Winged Silver Wolves clan. So I hatched a plan to have the Wolf King take my child back to the Six-Winged Silver Wolves clan. This way, we could escape the pursuit of the Ancient Fire Cloud Dragons…
“I became Dao partners with the Wolf King and gave birth to Chi. Hearing that the Jiao Snake was about to die, I learned of the celestial mansion Tianze in the horns of heaven, which contained the dragon veins of heaven and earth. It could transform the Jiao Snake into a dragon and even bring it back to life. So I decided to venture into the Tianze Immortal Mansion.”t the corpse of the evil cultivator, checking the traces left by the spellcasting nearby.Perhaps because too much time had passed, the traces of magic had almost vanished. Lin Qi couldn't rely on thes...
