Chapter 628: Persona Mask

Dragons set their sights on invading the human race and plundering the spiritual herbs from the spiritual herb garden.

Nine Marvels Undying Medicine, True Dragon Undying Medicine, Peach of Immortality, Ancient Tea Tree of Enlightenment...

Any one of these spiritual herbs was incredibly valuable.

Comparable to the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of the Primordial Era!

How could the Dragon race not covet such treasures?

Ever since the ancient Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation, the Dragon race had long since declined, losing many Quasi-Saints and Hunyuan Golden Immortals, leaving only a few Da Luo Golden Immortals.

Naturally, they had no chance of rising again to stand alongside the Wu and Yao tribes.

However, with these spiritual herbs comparable to the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of the Primordial Era, they might just be able to overtake them, stand shoulder to shoulder with the Wu and Yao tribes, or even surpass them, becoming the overlords of the new era in the Primordial World!

Thus, Venerable Yunlong, along with the Dragon Emperor and many other Dragon race Da Luo Golden Immortals, personally came.

The Dragon Emperor was also a Da Luo Golden Immortal who had followed Ancestral Dragon in ancient times. After the ancient Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation, as the Dragon race declined, the ancestor Zhulong could only choose the most prestigious and powerful dragon from the remaining Dragon race.

This was how the Dragon Emperor came to be.

With the Dragon Emperor leading the charge, over twenty Dragon race Da Luo Golden Immortals, and hundreds of subordinate races under the Dragon race's banner, they confronted the human army. Venerable Yunlong was initially quite confident.

But their expedition met with misfortune. Hundreds of races subordinate to the Dragon race, such as various shrimp, fish, and crab tribes, and collateral branches like horned dragons, earth dragons, and flood dragons, were almost annihilated by the human race on the spot.

It was a one-sided slaughter.

Venerable Yunlong, as the trump card Da Luo Golden Immortal force, had no choice but to intervene and deal with the human race.

But the human army was indeed powerful. Venerable Yunlong did not have much confidence in defeating them.

Venerable Yunlong gazed at the human army, with trillions of human soldiers and tens of thousands of individuals whose auras were comparable to Taiyi Golden Immortals. He couldn't help but frown and take a deep breath.

Trillions of human soldiers and tens of thousands of Taiyi Golden Immortals. Let alone early Da Luo, even he, a late Da Luo, would be shocked to see such a force.

These soldiers were by no means to be trifled with. If caught, he would lose a layer of his dragon skin, if not perish.

It seemed he could only hope to scare them away with his reputation as a Mythical Da Luo.

"I, a Mythical Da Luo, shall bestow upon you the fate of annihilation!"

Venerable Yunlong forcefully employed the bragging technique passed down by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, using illusions to manifest layer upon layer of Great Thousand Worlds, and layer upon layer of infinite multiverses.

He forcibly imposed a sense of overwhelming pressure on the commanders of the human army.

Under this pressure, the human soldiers felt that they were utterly incapable of resisting Venerable Yunlong, as his power seemed to be billions of times greater than theirs.

Just as Venerable Yunlong was feeling smug.

He heard the voice of the human race.

"Everyone, do not fear the Mythical Da Luo. The Human Emperor once said that Mythical Da Luo is fake, that there is no such thing as a Mythical Da Luo!"

"Today, let us defy and slay a Da Luo Golden Immortal!"

The most dreaded thing had happened.

Venerable Yunlong's pupils contracted.

"Not good!"

"Disaster!"

The lie of the Mythical Da Luo was false.

It was all an illusion, and an illusion without any power.

Once it was seen through.

Venerable Yunlong knew his fate.

He would at least be severely injured, and might even perish.

And that fate was now imminent.

Venerable Yunlong felt the surging blood qi.

Vast and boundless blood qi.

The blood qi of trillions of human soldiers and tens of thousands of Taiyi Golden Immortals, forming a formation. This "momentum" directly tore apart the Great Thousand Worlds he had constructed from layer upon layer of illusions.

He had already been injured by the blood qi.

His magic power was nearly depleted, and his Da Luo primordial spirit had dimmed.

He was on the verge of defeat.

Venerable Yunlong could already feel the taste of impending failure.

Before him, Suiren Shi, one of the three ancestors of the human race, whose power was also at the Da Luo level, was about to unleash the final blow to completely obliterate Venerable Yunlong.

Venerable Yunlong felt the crisis of death.

Venerable Yunlong should have been despairing.

But then, a will descended.

From countless layers of narrative, from the endless river of time and space, from the unknowable and immeasurable, it descended.

Venerable Yunlong first murmured, "So, I am merely an avatar, an avatar in the Mid-Dubbed Primordial World."

"The true body is—the true Mythical Da Luo, the protagonist with the destiny and fortune of a Da Luo, a transmigrator from the True One Realm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Venerable Yunlong seemed to be possessed by some will, transforming into another being.

No.

It was not possession by some will.

Rather, he was that will all along.

From the moment Venerable Yunlong was born during the ancient Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation.

He was this will.

However, this will had hidden itself, donned a "persona mask," and manifested as Venerable Yunlong in the Mid-Dubbed Primordial World.

But the essence of Venerable Yunlong had always been the Mythical Da Luo of the Supreme Primordial World.

There was no possession at all.

Nor was there any return to the origin.

It was merely a persona mask, and it was laughable to speak of returning to the origin.

At this moment, the mask that had been falsely worn was simply torn away, revealing the fundamental persona that had always existed.

The true Venerable Yunlong had descended.

Suiren Shi, still standing there, was somewhat surprised to see Venerable Yunlong recover from his attack.

According to his original plan, Venerable Yunlong should not have recovered, but should have perished.

However, since such an unexpected outcome had occurred, Suiren Shi personally activated another means: the Great Emperor Killing Formation.

This was a killing formation laid out by the Ruthless Great Emperor, capable of annihilating even Da Luo Golden Immortals.

"Yunlong, it truly surprises me that you are not dead."

"But please, taste the Great Emperor Killing Formation!"

"This is the killing formation of the Heaven-Shading Great Emperor!"

Suiren Shi declared as he stood up.

As he rose, formations adorned with various runes and Dao texts emerged from the ground, emitting brilliant light.

They were filled with boundless killing intent.

"Great Emperor Killing Formation?"

Venerable Yunlong laughed.

"How can a mere Heaven-Shading Great Emperor harm me?"

"Let Fang Ming come to see me personally."

Venerable Yunlong merely had to move a thought to alter the nature of this work's world.

All the rules of this Mid-Dubbed Primordial World were changed.

The most fundamental rules were the foundation of everything, like the foundation of a house. When the foundation collapses, everything ceases to exist.

Venerable Yunlong simply changed the most fundamental rule, the one that prevented the Heaven-Shading Method from being used in the Primordial World.

Suiren Shi and the numerous human soldiers felt all their magic power and primordial spirits within their bodies receding, returning to the state of ordinary people.
