The "Black Dragon Treasure Scroll" was personally created by the "Heavenly Dragon Dharma King," and it truly possessed a trace of the "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage," even capable of stirring a sliver of impure dragon qi.
The "Little Blood Dragon" in the sky, with its wide eyes, stared intently at Zhang Xin, who was "performing with all his might."
It seemed genuinely swayed.
*Swish!*
The "Little Blood Dragon" leaped from the sky and descended.
Witnessing this, Zhang Xin was so excited he nearly jumped for joy.
Fortune lies hidden in misfortune!
Wonderful!
He had originally thought he was doomed, but unexpectedly, he had turned disaster into a blessing and managed to capture a "Little Blood Dragon" for the imperial court.
Excitement blazed in Zhang Xin's eyes.
He could already envision a brilliant future.
Once he brought this "Little Blood Dragon" back to the "Great Xin Dynasty," his contributions would be immense, leading to titles and even kingship.
At that point, he would be "second only to one, first among all."
*Cackle cackle cackle…*
Zhang Xin's heart giggled with delight, sounding like a pig.
And then…
With a sharp turn, the "Little Blood Dragon" traced a perfect arc across the sky, instantly distancing itself from Zhang Xin and heading straight for the "Merit Phantom" opposite him.
This…
Zhang Xin panicked.
However, he was, after all, a mid-to-high-ranking celestial master of the "Imperial Observatory." When faced with a crisis, one must not panic; first, one must calm the mind.
Zhang Xin comforted himself internally.
Perhaps the "Little Blood Dragon" intended to eliminate the "Merit Phantom" first, as a grand gift to him!
Yes, that made sense!
And then…
The "Little Blood Dragon" prostrated itself before the "Merit Phantom," respectfully kowtowed, and called out in a clear voice.
"Father!"
Zhang Xin
( ( ( ; ꒪ꈊ꒪ ; ) ) )
His jaw dropped in shock, no doubt!
Don't panic, don't panic. When something happens, don't panic.
Zhang Xin forced himself to remain calm and desperately tried to rationalize.
The "True Dragon Lord" must be trying to lull the opponent into a false sense of security, then strike them down in one fell swoop!
Yes, yes, it must be like that!
What? Even if the "True Dragon Lord" needed to lull the opponent, did it have to call them "Father" so shamelessly?
What? The "True Dragon Lord's" "Karma Fire" is peerless in the world, invincible; it could kill whoever it wanted directly, without needing any tricks?
I won't listen, I won't listen. Like a turtle chanting scriptures!
Poor Zhang Xin, he had lost his ability to think rationally and began to frantically "deceive himself"!
In any case, the "True Dragon Lord" could never call a human "Father."
Heh, I don't believe it!
…
As if understanding Zhang Xin's inner thoughts, the "Little Blood Dragon" deliberately shouted again in a loud voice.
"Father!"
One shout wasn't enough, so it continued to shout incessantly.
"Father, Father, Father…"
Now, observe the "Merit Phantom's" reaction.
Hands behind its back.
Gazing up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle!
Swag MAX!
This scene was utterly epic, no doubt!
Merit adorns it, and true dragons submit!
Just ask, who else?
Zhang Xin could no longer deceive himself. He completely broke down. Looking at the "Merit Phantom" opposite him, he let out a scream.
"Who are you? You, you are not human, you are a devil, you are a god…"
The shock Zhang Xin experienced was too great, and he even started to speak incoherently.
This really couldn't be blamed on him!
The "Great Xin Dynasty" was founded by the "Heavenly Dragon Dharma King" himself.
The reason the "Heavenly Dragon Dharma King" was so powerful was largely because he obtained a portion of the "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage."
Although that portion of "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage" was inferior, impure, and not worth mentioning.
The true "True Dragon Clan" wouldn't even bother to cast a glance at such trash "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage."
However, it had to be admitted that the "True Dragon Clan," as the former "Lords of All Realms," were glorious beyond measure, transcending all heavens. The "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage" they left behind was a treasure of all realms.
The "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage" not only contained various cultivation methods but also powerful divine abilities and secret techniques, which were profoundly wondrous!
Relying on the "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage," the "Heavenly Dragon Dharma King" rose to prominence. He not only created the two major forces of "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" and "Great Xin Dynasty" but also formulated an outrageously abnormal, infinitely resourceful, and insanely vast "Ten Thousand Year Plan"!
The "Imperial Observatory" was a part of this "Ten Thousand Year Plan."
Zhang Xin, as a mid-to-upper-level cultivator of the "Imperial Observatory," had always taken pride in the "Ancient Dragon Clan's heritage."
He believed himself to be an officially recognized "descendant of the dragon"!
This "sense of identity" brought him endless confidence and strength!
Yet today, on this very day, he personally witnessed a "true dragon" eagerly kneeling before a swindler he looked down upon, calling him "Father" with every word!
Can you imagine that feeling of the "world collapsing," of your "three views shattering"?
Zhang Xin felt the overwhelming malice of the entire world!
His past convictions and pride had become utterly meaningless!
His mindset collapsed!
Zhang Xin's mindset had completely shattered!
He was now in a state of extreme "trance."
The "Black Dragon Treasure Scroll" ceased to function.
The three thousand "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" behind him, deprived of the "Black Dragon Treasure Scroll's" enhancement, were instantly reverted to their original forms.
Spiritual light dissipated.
"Ahhh…"
The "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" let out terrified screams. They fell from the sky like fallen birds.
Fortunately, they would not be smashed to death!
This was because Zhang Xin and the three thousand "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" were already surrounded by boundless "Karma Fire."
Three hundred and sixty degrees, from all directions, without any blind spots!
As the "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" fell from the sky, they landed precisely in the "Karma Fire."
Flames surged!
"Karma" was immense!
In an instant, the "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" died, leaving not even bone fragments!
Being scorched by "Karma Fire" was no joke!
Their souls were eroded by the "boundless karma," and they finally withered away, perishing completely.
Soon, the three thousand "Black Dragon Dao Soldiers" were decimated!
However, Zhang Xin remained in his "trance," his eyes vacant.
I'm tired, let it all be destroyed!
Grief is greater than death!
It wasn't just Zhang Xin; most of the celestial masters behind him from the "Imperial Observatory" were in a similar state.
Their faith had collapsed!
Their three views had shattered!
They stood there in a daze!
At this moment, it was time for "a certain senior" to display his "show-off prowess."
He activated the "Merit Phantom," smiled faintly, and said to Zhang Xin and the others.
"What have you learned from this event?"
Uh…
Learned what?
How profound, how impressive!
Zhang Xin and the others were still in a state of "mental collapse," but the others were abuzz.
The cultivators of "Old Lord Peak," led by "Song Yiren,"
(☆＿☆)
Their eyes shone with excitement!
The tens of thousands of captured cultivators
(☆＿☆)
Their eyes shone with excitement!
The commoners of "Qingyang Village"
(☆＿☆)
Their eyes shone with excitement!
…
What the senior said was so profound and impressive!
