800: Chapter 211 Demonic Fruit Tree_3 800: Chapter 211 Demonic Fruit Tree_3 Xuanzhen Taoist walked in.
Within this unfinished Tao Palace, numerous cracks had appeared, shattered by force; some bore the aura of the Sealed Emperor Lineage, terrifying even to him, while others were drenched in the enduring aura of the Taoist School.
These were the traces left from the battle between the Great Ancestor of the Sealed Emperor’s Palace and the Taoist Ancestor of Guiwang Mountain.
Unseen by the masses, an immense battle had unfolded here.
Xuanzhen Taoist glanced at the traces and proceeded, entering directly into Chengtian Hall.
There wasn’t a trace of the Dark Tide within Chengtian Hall; the rich aura of Imperial’s Tao repelled it.
The entire hall was supported by eighteen Dragon Pillars, rising to the sky and staunchly supporting the splendid golden palace.
However, there were no Divine God Dragons coiled around the pillars.
The once ambitious Sealed Emperor’s Palace refused to settle for fake dragons, but also lacked the ability to acquire even a single True Dragon, so the Dragon Pillars had always been vacant.
The Dragon Pillars were vacant, but the moment Xuanzhen Taoist entered, the Imperial’s Tao aura in the hall coalesced into a Divine God Dragon, and a Dragon’s Chant sounded, attempting to push him out; however, a flicker of the Tai Chi Diagram above his head isolated him from the Imperial’s Tao aura.
Steadying his steps, Xuanzhen Taoist took out a clay doll from his chest and step by step approached the imperial throne amidst the clouds in the great hall.
The clay doll was remarkably lifelike, resembling Ya Ya.
Xuanzhen Taoist placed the little clay doll atop the throne in Chengtian Hall, and the tiny figure moved to adjust its sitting posture, creating a regal presence as if holding a Golden Sword and seated in grandeur.
Dressed as an emperor, the clay doll had a calm and composed gaze; behind it, a National Fortune Dragon coiled, truly resembling an Empress.
As the Empress sat down, as if triggering something, a reluctant roar from the Imperial’s Tao Divine God Dragon within Chengtian Hall ensued, and then a continuous flow of auras surged into the clay Empress’s body from throughout the Tao Palace.
The clay doll grew increasingly dignified with the aura of an emperor.
Xuanzhen Taoist nodded in satisfaction and a small creature jumped off his shoulder, revealing itself to be Ya Ya’s Barbarian King Puppet.
The Barbarian King Puppet, riding on an Iron-Eating Beast, leapt onto the armrest of the Dragon Throne, appearing like a mere plaything at palm-size.
Yet, the untamed aura emanating from the figure was potent, mingling with its own regal presence, preventing the little puppet from being affected by the Imperial’s Tao aura of Chengtian Hall.
The Little Barbarian King sat atop the Iron-Eating Beast, nonchalantly waving his hand, full of confidence, “Don’t worry, should anything unexpected arise, I’ll be the first to break this…”
He looked around the hall with its arrangements, noting that even a single floor tile was more than a hundred times his size.
After surveying the hall, the Little Barbarian King’s gaze once again fell on Ya Ya’s clay figure, “Should anything unexpected arise, I’ll be the first to break this clay doll!”
He weighed the battle-axe in his hand; with his current strength, it seemed he could only break this clay doll.
The clay Ya Ya gave him a dignified glance.
Xuanzhen Taoist smiled slightly and bowed in respect, “Then I thank you, Senior Barbarian King.”
With that, he left Chengtian Hall.
…
Meanwhile, to the southwest of Baiyun Palace, a Tao Palace was hidden within the Dark Tide.
This piece of the Tao Palace resembled three interlocking rings, much like a trio of bracelets linked together.
The Tao Palace was not situated on the land of Mystery Yellow Cave Sky but floated amidst the Dark Tide.
Outside San Yuan Palace, Ji Feixue led Ya Ya, breaking through the Dark Tide and stepping forward step by step.
Ji Feixue’s mood was low, her hand gripping the flesh puppet of an Azure Dragon.
An Azure Dragon had fallen in the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky calamity.
As Divine God Beasts with their Divine God Souls and bodies merged into one, they should leave nothing behind in the Dark Tide.
However, this Azure Dragon, like an ordinary cultivator, had somehow left behind a broken body.
This dragon must have had some skills to avoid turning completely to ash.
But it was left with only a shell of a body and devoid of any Spirit Wisdom – an absolute flesh puppet.
“Great Auntie!” Ya Ya clutched Ji Feixue’s finger and gently squeezed it.
Great Auntie had brought her to retrieve the Dragon Scales, but as soon as they reached the outside of San Yuan Palace, they were attacked by that ragged Azure Dragon.
The Azure Dragon was weak, and Great Auntie suppressed it with a backhand move, but from then on, her mood was never high.
Ji Feixue shook her head, “I thought this silly dragon, having been to the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace, should have had some skills.
Perhaps it had been hiding in the Dark Tide and never came out, but in fact, it really fell here.”
Was it just the minor Dark Tide that really suppressed and killed an Azure Dragon?
Coming across the Dark Tide without any means to resist it and immediately falling into a state of suspended animation is that difficult?
This fellow wasn’t considered weak among the Dragon clan.
Compared to the Azure Dragon from Xuan Tian Gate, it was far more powerful.
It has always been compared to the Dragon Turtle Tribe’s Gu Luo.
Ji Feixue suppressed the corpse of the Azure Dragon with one move, taking it into Su He’s Sky Prison, and then stepped into the San Yuan Palace with Ya Ya.
The San Yuan Palace hadn’t reached the day it would open, and the power of the Dark Tide within was even greater.
“Six hours!” Ji Feixue said softly.
Her hairpin could only support her for six hours.
If she didn’t leave this place, the consequences would be unpredictable if the Dark Tide broke through the hairpin.
“Here!” In the Dark Tide of San Yuan Palace, endless Dragon Qi filled the air.
The Dragon Ancestor Scale was indeed left here by that fool.
The Scale in here is the same as it was nine thousand years ago, which was measured by Bai Linggu.
Bai Linggu’s trigrams measurement had never disappointed her.
Following her instincts, Ji Feixue moved forward, and soon came upon a canyon wrapped in a Big Array, and the aura of Dragon Scales was emanating from within it.
Ji Feixue’s expression completely darkened.
This Formation—it’s from the Sealed Emperor’s Palace!
She knew at a glance that the power of this Formation was not below the Abyss Array at its peak.
Even for adult Four Spirits Divine God Beasts, an existence like Gu Luo would need to gather four or five of them and spend three to five years to have a chance of breaking the Formation.
With a flip of her hand, Ji Feixue took out an unfinished Sword piece, pulled Ya Ya back two steps, and then pointed with her halberd finger, slashing with the sword!
A streak of Sword Light passed by, and the Formation that looked like an inverted bowl instantly shattered.
The tremendous shockwave spread out in all directions, dispelling the Dark Tide and the colliding white light illuminated the world.
However, this shockwave deliberately avoided Su Huanian, passing by the two of them without even moving the hem of Ya Ya’s dress.
The Formation broke, and a serene voice with a hint of heartiness came through, “Hahaha!
Emperor Brother, you were actually able to find this place.
You came before San Yuan Palace opened.
It seems that the Sun Wheel is indeed in Emperor Brother’s hands.”
As the aftershock settled, the place shrouded by the Formation was revealed.
Emperor Luan was seen wearing casual clothes for the most part, with an altar behind him and a dragon scale the size of a fight pit above it, with endless dragon majesty scattering from the scale.
Below the altar, Emperor Luan continued to talk, “The Prison Dragon Formation can only be mastered by the Seal Emperor monarchs, and thus can be broken with one strike.
But Emperor Brother is special, mastering it early is not a difficult task, the one who broke the Formation can only be Emperor Brother…”
Emperor Luan looked up to see the two fairies, large and small, opposite him, his mouth opening and closing unable to speak—the puppet had really jammed up!
The Luan in front of them was not real; it was a Puppet!
The Dark Tide of Mystery Yellow Cave Sky specially annihilates Divine God Souls.
Avatars, Consciousness Bodies, and such could not remain in the Dark Tide, only soulless Puppets set with a programmed routine could be left behind.
The Puppet required special methods and special materials for Refining; otherwise, upon entering the Dark Tide, it would corrode to nothing first.
This was Emperor Luan’s strategy for dealing with the Deposed Crown Prince breaking the Formation, but the Puppet, realizing that it wasn’t the Deposed Crown Prince who came in, couldn’t process the information and crashed.
