“Do you not fear making enemies with our entire Dragon Clan by obstructing us from welcoming back the Dragon Emperor Bloodline?”
The two powerful beings from the Dragon Clan immediately became unfriendly upon seeing that Mount Taihua Sacred Land was unwilling to hand over Ning Qianqian.
“As far as I know, the Dragon Clan is divided into several tribes. You do not speak for the entire Dragon Clan.”
Having seen much of the world, Lu Changsheng was not intimidated by the two dragons.
He dared to provoke the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, let alone the Dragon Clan.
The Dragon Clan is divided into the Candle Dragon Tribe, Fire Dragon Clan, Thunder Dragon Clan, Kuilong Tribe, Shenglong Clan, etc., and the Dragon Emperor was the sovereign of ten thousand dragons. After the Dragon Emperor’s fall, the various tribes of the Dragon Clan no longer acknowledged each other’s authority and basically went their separate ways.
Lu Changsheng refused the demands of the two Dragon Clan’s strong beings. He did not believe that meant making enemies with the entire Dragon Clan, as they did not represent it.
At this time, the elder reminded Lu Changsheng, “They are powerful beings from the Black Dragon Clan. The World-Ending Black Dragon is their ancestor and there’s a bit of a grudge between them and our Mount Taihua Sacred Land. My sister once severely wounded the World-Ending Black Dragon, causing great damage to its dragon essence and a significant decrease in cultivation level.”
Sweat.
Is this considered a bit of a grudge?
The World-Ending Black Dragon suffered a great loss at the hand of the Mount Taihua Goddess, so it is not surprising that the Black Dragon Clan bears no goodwill toward Mount Taihua Sacred Land.
“I remember now, you are powerful beings from the Black Dragon Clan. How about we collaborate and each take what we need?”
Helian Tuo transmitted his voice to the two Dragon Clan’s strong beings, and his eyes lit up upon remembering their identity.
He alone was unsure he could defeat the elder, but with the cooperation of the two Dragon Clan’s powerful beings, they could definitely defeat her.
The two powerful beings from the Black Dragon Clan, both in the Longevity Immortal Realm, had an aura not as strong as that of Helian Tuo and the elder, but when the two Black Dragons joined forces, their combined strength was not inferior to any individual belonging to Helian Tuo and the elder.
“The Human Race is always cunning; can you be trusted?”
“Rest assured, our Ancient Helian Clan always keeps our word.”
“Alright, we’ll collaborate with you.”
The two Black Dragon Clan’s powerful beings exchanged glances. To take back the Descendant of the Dragon Empress, they did not mind cooperating with the Ancient Helian Clan.
Boom!
The Fourth Ancestor of the Helian Family and the two powerful beings from the Black Dragon Clan unleashed their auras at the same time. The terrifying wave of their presence swept through the Eight Desolates, leveling the entire village!
With quick thinking, Lu Changsheng produced a talisman and used Shrink the Earth to Inches, evacuating the villagers in advance to prevent these innocent villagers from being affected.
“Elder, we are facing two against three, and the three on the other side are Great Experts. We don’t stand a chance.”
Lu Changsheng’s expression was grave, feeling the situation was extremely tricky.
Even using the Human Sovereign Cauldron, Lu Changsheng was no match for a Great Power.
With Lu Changsheng’s cultivation level, it was difficult to unleash the Human Sovereign Cauldron’s full potential, especially since it had not yet been fully restored.
“In the past, my sister, wielding the Taihua Divine Umbrella, defeated the World-Ending Black Dragon all by herself. Today, I, Lin Shiyu, can do the same.”
The elder’s aura suddenly transformed. Her white hair regained its vibrancy and turned into three thousand strands of black silk.
The wrinkles on the elder’s face, carved by the harshness of wind and frost, disappeared in an instant, leaving her skin smooth and supple, while her formerly hunched figure grew much taller.
In a blink of an eye, the elder returned to her youthful form of an unmatched Goddess, ethereal as a celestial being, her aura pure and her body radiating a faint divine glow.
This was what the elder looked like in her youth.
With her level of cultivation, eternal youth was just a matter of desire.
“The resemblance is uncanny.”
Upon seeing Lin Shiyu’s appearance, which was somewhat similar to that of the Mount Taihua Goddess, Helian Tuo felt a tightness in his chest.
He had been defeated by the Mount Taihua Goddess in the past.
“Kid, today I’ll show you what’s beyond the Fifth Sword Realm. Watch closely and learn well,” said Lin Shiyu as she mustered her full strength to wield her sister’s Longsword, a sword glowing with seven-colored radiance, illuminating the heavens and earth.
In comparison to the glowing Longsword, even the sun and the moon seemed to have lost their brilliance.
“So powerful…”
The two Dragon Clan’s powerful beings were sweating profusely.
Since the fall of the Mount Taihua Goddess, Mount Taihua Sacred Land had not seen the rise of any notable experts. They never expected that the Mount Taihua Goddess’s sister was still alive, and with such astonishing strength!
“Impossible! How can you possess such cultivation! You were clearly just a young girl holding the sword for the Mount Taihua Goddess before, how have you surpassed my own cultivation!”
Helian Tuo couldn’t believe it, already drenched in sweat.
“What was is in the past; what is now is the present. If you take the past for the present, then you are gravely mistaken,” Lin Shiyu declared as she wielded the Mount Taihua Goddess’s Divine Sword, executing peerless sword techniques.
This sword drew upon the essence of heaven and earth, surpassing Lu Changsheng’s experience, prompting him to thirstily comprehend the intent within.
“The Mount Taihua Goddess’s sword techniques… no!”
After being defeated by the Mount Taihua Goddess, Helian Tuo had trained for many years, thinking he had surpassed the Mount Taihua Goddess of those days, only to find himself up against Lin Shiyu, the sister of the Mount Taihua Goddess. With just the use of the sword technique that defeated him back then, he was already unable to withstand her Sword Qi.
It turned out his cultivation had never truly surpassed that of the Mount Taihua Goddess!
Rumbling…
The terrifying Sword Qi was powerful enough to fell trees and flatten forests, causing spatial distortions to rampage.
The region around Taihua Divine Mountain seemed to be struck by an apocalypse-level earthquake, with the earth shaking and mountains trembling.
If not for the Mountain Protection Array safeguarding Mount Taihua Sacred Land, it too would have been affected.
“What’s happening?”
“Is there a formidable enemy attacking?”
In Mount Taihua Sacred Land, Ancestors, Elders, and Disciples, each took to the skies with Sword Flight, bewildered and uncertain.
Such a level of combat had erupted at the foot of Mount Taihua.
“It’s the aura of our Ancestor.”
