A dragon's roar resounded as Long Yuan clenched his massive draconic claws, divine energy surging within him like an unending celestial river. A majestic golden dragon coiled around his enormous claw—the supreme divine technique "Primordial Dragon Fist"!
A dazzling golden light erupted, illuminating heaven and earth.
Dragon roars reverberated,
Shaking the very fabric of the world,
As a colossal golden dragon spanning the skies manifested,
Carrying a power that made all who witnessed it tremble in terror as it charged toward the three opponents.
The sound was like the heavens splitting and the earth shattering.
The entire Lingxu Grotto-Heaven violently quaked at that moment, as if on the verge of collapse.
Everyone was horrified.
Do not mistake Lingxu Grotto-Heaven for just a mere secret realm—
It was an entire expansive world within,
Its vastness no less than the Mortal Realm itself!
Yet now, it nearly collapsed from the battle between these few individuals!
This alone demonstrated the terrifying might of Infinite Realm experts—capable of truly destroying worlds!
But in the next instant,
Mysterious golden runes emerged from every corner of Lingxu Grotto-Heaven, resembling mystical tadpoles emitting a steady golden radiance.
The tremors ceased instantly as the realm stabilized.
Some golden tadpoles even swam through the air,
Forming an immense formation that shielded the vast land of Lingxu Grotto-Heaven,
Preventing the apocalyptic shockwaves from annihilating the continent.
High in the firmament,
The collision of four supreme divine techniques
Resembled nothing less than a cosmic explosion.
The resulting energy waves surged in all directions,
Forcing all four combatants to stagger back.
"This dragon is actually this terrifying?!"
Ancestor Xu Lang was aghast.
Their opponent was only at the late stage of the Infinite Realm,
While all three of them had reached perfection in the Infinite Realm!
Yet even joining forces, they could only barely match him?
How was this possible?
At this level of power,
Even divine physiques could no longer provide significant combat advantages.
Thus, the concept of challenging those above one's realm was nearly impossible—
Even a single minor realm difference should guarantee absolute dominance!
So what was with this True Dragon before them?
Long Yuan, however, nodded in satisfaction.
"As expected of the Yin-Yang Celestial Dragon bloodline, surpassing even the four supreme dragon clans!"
If bloodlines were to correspond to physiques,
His previous Azure Flame Blue Dragon form had already rivaled ordinary divine physiques.
The Iceflame Mystic Dragon bloodline, equivalent to the four supreme dragon clans, matched top-tier divine physiques.
As for the Five-Elements Extreme Dragon bloodline, it surpassed even divine physiques, reaching the level of Forbidden Physiques.
He no longer knew just how powerful his current Yin-Yang Celestial Dragon bloodline was.
All he knew was that even at his present realm,
His bloodline still provided substantial combat enhancement!
This made him eagerly anticipate further bloodline evolution.
At his current level,
Only an even mightier bloodline could significantly boost his combat power—
An enhancement far surpassing divine weapons or martial techniques!
"Again! I refuse to believe his strength is truly this monstrous!"
Ancestor Xu Lang growled,
Summoning a pair of golden rods into his hands.
Mysterious dao patterns covered their surfaces, radiating peerless majesty!
These were his lifebound artifacts—
Forged at the Infinite Realm level.
The other two ancestors manifested their own lifebound weapons:
A dark-golden spiked club and a pristine white sword.
"My weapon was forged from the femur of an Infinite Realm expert,"
Ancestor Kuai Kuang, wielder of the spiked club, declared coldly.
"It hasn't tasted blood in a million years. Today, your blood shall christen it anew!"
The ancestor who had earlier used the "Law Manifestation" technique now stood imposingly with his dark-golden, bloodthirsty club.
Together, the three attacked Long Yuan from different angles.
"Pity my Myriad Dragons Pagoda remains guarding the Chu family,"
Long Yuan chuckled, unfazed. Official source is NoveI(F)ire.net
"Otherwise, I'd gladly test your weapons against it!"
Bare-handed, he charged forward fearlessly.
Holding nothing back,
He unleashed another divine technique.
His fist manifested swirling galaxies, as though compressing an entire universe within.
It clashed directly against their divine weapons.
All creation trembled,
As his fist collided with the dark-golden spiked club.
It seemed as though yin and yang inverted,
The cosmos shattered,
Countless apocalyptic visions flashing within the explosive light—
Enough to freeze one's soul in terror!
Pain shot through Long Yuan's claws—
The impact had actually wounded him.
But before he could react,
The other two ancestors attacked from his flanks.
Long Yuan's colossal form twisted,
His rear claw expanding like a celestial curtain.
An entire world materialized—
Complete with rotating starfields and shadows of countless lifeforms.
An overwhelming pressure erupted outward.
Ancestor Xu Lang, charging with his golden rods,
Felt his pupils constrict violently.
An unstoppable force was coming straight at him.
Yet retreat was impossible.
He could only meet it head-on.
With a thunderous roar,
He unleashed every ounce of his power into the rods,
Making them blaze with dazzling divine light!
The collision between World Within Palm and Xu Lang's full-power strike
The resulting radiance illuminating the highest heavens!
A figure came plummeting down from the skies.
"That's... Ancestor Xu Lang?!"
Wang Zuo and the others turned pale.
An Ancient Ancestor had been defeated!
"How? Ancestor Xu Lang reached Infinite Realm perfection! How could he lose?"
Song Tai and other high-ranking experts were dumbfounded.
Was that True Dragon truly so powerful?
"Holy shit, the Beast God is this strong?"
Chu Yan's jaw dropped to the floor, eyes bulging.
Wasn't the Beast God just a Demon Emperor?
How could he fight those ancient monsters on equal footing?
"The Beast God is no mere Demon Emperor,"
Medicine Elder sighed.
"Much has happened since you entered this place."
"Not only did the Beast God defeat a powerhouse from Hell's Gate who surpassed Martial Emperor level,"
"He also elevated the Chu family to Emperor-tier status overnight."
"Rumors say the Chu family now boasts multiple Martial Emperors!"
"Because of the Beast God and the Chu family's rise,"
"The entire Mortal Realm has been thrown into upheaval."
"Countless Martial Saint perfection experts are now attempting to break through to Martial Emperor,"
"Forcing Hell's Gate to deploy Martial Emperors to patrol the realm."
He briefed Chu Yan on recent events.
"Someone in the family became a Martial Emperor?"
"I only reached Martial Emperor thanks to your special cultivation method,"
"After refining several heavenly flames and gaining a Divine Fire's acknowledgment."
"How could others in the family break through so quickly?"
"That, I don't know," Medicine Elder admitted.
"But it's an undeniable fact—the Chu family now has multiple Martial Emperors."
"Every major faction in the Mortal Realm knows this now."
