Chapter 26
Secluded Cultivation, Dragon Scattered Across the Four Seas
Chapter 26 Secluded Cultivation, Dragon Spreads Across the Seas
By fusing the innate dragon blood essence with the giant tortoise blood essence on his body, the flames of law forged the primordial spirit of the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth.
When the time is right, the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth will once again descend upon the primordial land.
Looking down, one sees mountains of corpses and various magical treasures.
With a thought from Yang Gui, the power of the world surged.
Various corpses and magical treasures were categorized and imprisoned within the world.
Rare flowers and exotic herbs, and innate spiritual treasures, are innate spiritual energy that is transformed from the chaotic energy that is planted on the earth's surface.
Reappearing in the valley, Yang Gui began to sort himself out.
The conversation with Master Yangmei instilled in Yang Gui a sense of urgency.
Under the laws of Heaven, nothing can hide.
He was absolutely confident that the Chaos Pearl's power to conceal heavenly secrets would prevent the ancestor Hongjun from discovering it after he had achieved Dao.
Before mending the sky, he had to completely conceal his origins so that the old Taoist priest wouldn't discover anything amiss.
However, just in case, Yang Gui still prepared to make some extra preparations.
"We must improve our strength as soon as possible!"
If you are strong enough, all your schemes are in vain!
Moreover, if he wants to fight against all the saints at the end of the next great calamity, his strength as a Primordial Golden Immortal in the early stage is simply not enough.
Entering the Hunyuan realm means that Yang Gui has realized his own understanding. As long as he finds the opportunity to achieve enlightenment, he can break through to the Hunyuan Immortal Heavenly Venerable realm.
As for the Primordial Golden Immortals in the Primordial World, their primordial spirits reside within the Primordial Heavenly Dao; as long as the Primordial World does not collapse, the Heavenly Dao will not perish, and the sages will be immortal.
It seems enviable, but it means losing freedom, ease, and carefree living, and being bound by the primordial heavenly way.
So much so that in later times, fearing the collapse of heaven and earth, it ceased to appear in the primordial world.
The realms of Hunyuan Wuji Dalu Jinxian and Hunyuan Buxiu Tianzun may seem similar, but they are worlds apart.
The latter was what Yang Gui was pursuing.
Yang Gui used Pangu as a reference point, wanting to forge a different path.
I forge the body of the laws; I am the laws, and the laws are me.
To reach this level, one must thoroughly understand the laws of heaven and earth.
This is undoubtedly a very difficult road.
"With the extraordinary talent of comprehension, I will use my own few Great Dao Laws as the foundation to comprehend the Primordial Heavenly Dao Laws."
"Refine yourself!"
Yang Gui's eyes gleamed brightly; he had already made up his mind!
From small to large, from simple to complex, and then from complex to simple, returning to the basics.
Within the sea of consciousness, fragments of the Creation Jade Disc emitted endless light.
"With the fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation, a few more Great Laws can be added!"
At this moment, the principles of Yin and Yang and the principles of creation flowed through his mind.
These two laws originated from the two primordial deities, Nuwa and Fuxi.
The laws of Heaven, the laws of wind, the laws of formation, the laws of the five elements, the laws of creation, and the laws of Yin and Yang emanate from Yang Gui.
Apart from creation and the laws of Yin and Yang, everything else has reached a state of perfection.
With the two laws flowing through his mind, Yang Gui began another period of seclusion.
Just as Yang Gui went into seclusion, the great battle between heaven and earth was nearing its end.
The demons of heaven and earth were destroyed by the dragon, phoenix, and qilin races.
The powerful figures of the three races looked at the devastated prehistoric land, and then back at their own races, which were now reduced to less than one-tenth of their original size, and felt a deep sense of sorrow.
The Azure Dragon of the Dragon Clan looked sorrowful. "All dragon descendants, return to the four seas. Do not descend upon the primordial continent without cause."
The First Dragon has already transformed into the Dao and become the spirit of heaven and earth, so there's no point in continuing the fight.
The other two races wanted to fight the dragons again, but they were in dire straits themselves and had no choice but to give up.
Helpless, they had no choice but to return to their respective places.
They were left alone, with only scaled creatures, birds, and beasts battling across the desolate land, unsure of what to do, looking at each other in bewilderment.
The three races were in decline and preoccupied with their own survival, having no intention of caring for their subordinate races.
Furthermore, since the fortune of these subordinate races had already been integrated into the fortune of the three races, the three races were so confident that they didn't even glance at these subordinate races when they left.
Immediately, discontent began to arise in the hearts of all the powerful members of the subordinate races.
"Where should we go?"
The Black Panther Clan expert said in a deep voice.
"Those three clans are utterly despicable! We fought bravely in front of them, earning tens of thousands of yuan, and they just abandoned us and left us behind?"
"We've been abandoned..."
Chaos.
The emotions of all the subordinate races of the three races were in turmoil.
Some birds couldn't accept it and flew directly to the Undying Volcano to find out what was going on.
The beast tribe wanted to find the Qilin tribe, but found that there was no trace of Qilin on the vast land.
It's as if the Qilin clan has always existed in legends.
The Scaled Armor Clan infiltrated the Four Seas to demand an explanation, only to find that the Ancestral Dragon Palace had vanished and the gates of the Four Seas Dragon Palaces were tightly shut.
This disturbance caused the already dwindling fortunes of the three races to plummet once again.
"His fortunes have declined, yet he hasn't fallen into ruin; what a clever scheme."
Inside the Ancestral Dragon Hall of the East Sea, Gui Yi sat in the hall, secretly observing the dragon clan's fortune, and smacked his lips.
The Ancestral Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, and the First Qilin had already prepared a way out for their respective races.
Although the various subordinate races have separated from the three races, even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse, and in the future, a considerable number of these subordinate races will evolve towards the three races.
They once again become fresh blood for the three races, replenishing the population.
Basically, it can ensure that the destiny of the race remains intact and that the race endures.
Several figures appeared inside the Ancestral Dragon Hall.
The two dragon elders, Zhulong and Qinglong, were slightly pale. As soon as they appeared, they sat down in their respective seats without saying a word, their faces showing deep thought.
Before long, the other four sea dragon descendants also appeared one after another.
Besides the four Primordial Golden Immortals who guard the four seas respectively, there are also the Four Dragon Kings of the Seas: Ao Guang, Dragon King of the East Sea; Ao Run, Dragon King of the West Sea; Ao Shun, Dragon King of the North Sea; and Ao Qin, Dragon King of the South Sea.
Ao Guang looked at Gui Yi sitting in the elder's seat and felt a pang of emotion.
It was he who introduced the Dragon Master Gui Yi to the Dragon Clan, and unexpectedly, in just a few tens of thousands of years, he became a noble existence that no one in the prehistoric world dared to easily provoke.
Composing himself, Ao Guang looked at the empty seat of the Ancestral Dragon, his face filled with sorrow: "Elder, the Scaled Armor Clan is now loitering around the Dragon Palace every day, demanding an explanation from our dragon race. What should we do next?"
Azure Dragon, his face slightly angry, said coldly, "Is this a coup?!"
"Do they really think that without the Ancestral Dragon, we dragon elders can't keep them in check?"
"Elder Qinglong, don't be impulsive," said Zhulong from the side. "With the Ancestral Dragon gone, our Dragon Clan's fortune has been greatly diminished. If any further trouble arises, it will be detrimental to our clan."
Azure Dragon unleashed a murderous aura and roared angrily, "Then tell me what to do! After this battle, less than one-tenth of the Dragon Clan survived. These subordinate races seem to be demanding an explanation, but they are merely testing our strength."
As he spoke, he was about to get up and fly out to kill those scaled-armored people.
"wake up!"
Suddenly, a solemn and dignified voice appeared in the Ancestral Dragon Hall.
The tortoise was radiating golden light of merit, holding the Dragon Book, and standing not far away looking at the Azure Dragon.
The Azure Dragon shuddered, its eyes filled with pain and struggle, and wisps of black energy appeared on its body.
"Heavenly Demon!!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Zhulong's expression changed drastically.
"ah!!"
A piercing scream rang out, and black mist churned, forming a black dragon that swirled in the air.
With a flick of its finger, the tortoise emitted golden light that landed on the black dragon, like oil being poured over a raging fire.
The black dragon disappeared with a pained expression.
In contrast, Qinglong's aura weakened, and he slumped in his chair, his cultivation level plummeting to the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
"Elder!"
The Four Dragon Kings looked panicked and exclaimed in alarm.
Zhulong gathered primordial spiritual energy and channeled it into Qinglong, a hint of worry appearing on his face. "What a powerful demon!"
It is all-pervasive, and can even corrupt a Primordial Golden Immortal.
Zhulong looked at the tortoise with gratitude, "Thank you for your help, Master Dragon!"
Gui Yi waved his hand, put away the Dragon Book, and said, "Elder Zhulong, you're too kind."
After a long while, the Azure Dragon slowly opened its eyes, sighed, "Alas... I made a wrong move and was almost completely corrupted by the Heavenly Demon."
"Although the Heavenly Demon was killed by the Dragon Master, I don't know how long it will take for me to regain my strength."
Gui Yi said calmly, "Elder Qinglong, there's no need to worry. Everything has its good and bad sides. Perhaps this is a good thing?"
His words startled the dragons present, who were somewhat puzzled.
Gui Yi continued, "The Dragon Clan used to stand at the very top of the prehistoric continent, but now their fortunes have declined, making them a piece of fat meat in the eyes of other races."
"The world's affairs will decline after reaching their peak. Apart from the four elders who guard the four seas, there are only the two of you left in the Dragon Clan. The Heavenly Dao will cause trouble sooner or later. The Azure Dragon Elder's decline in strength may help our clan avoid the Heavenly Dao's scheme."
The implication is that the dragon race is now burdened with immense karma, like fireflies in the dark.
If they still possess a formidable fighting force, they will be eliminated sooner or later.
Gui Yi's words silenced the other dragons present.
No one knows the current situation of the dragon race better than they do.
"How are the dragon descendants across the four seas doing now?" Zhulong asked in a deep voice.
"They're all hidden within the Heaven-Concealing Array," Ao Guang said in a low voice.
Zhulong looked at Guiyi and asked, "Dragon Master, what should we do next?"
Gui Yi smiled and said, "Of course, it's as the Ancestral Dragon said: to guard the four seas and ensure favorable weather for the prehistoric continent."
"In the primordial wilderness, mountains, seas, lakes, rivers, and oceans were everywhere."
"Our dragon race is naturally scattered across the four seas, establishing dragon palaces to oversee celestial phenomena and cleanse karma from the primordial world."
His words made all the dragons' eyes light up.
What Kame said next excited them even more.
