Chapter 0126: The Continent of Gods
After killing Moro andFiet, Huang Long rushed toward the ruins of the gods with Bog and the others.
The Ancient Dragon God’s Tomb!
The significance of that ancient dragon god’s body to Huang Long now was beyond doubt. Once obtained, his “Water-Fire Primordial Dragon Art” could reach the perfected stage of the Yinglong Realm, and his cultivation level could also advance to the perfected stage of the Soul Emergence Realm. Within half a year, he might even reach the Calamity Crossing Realm.
Reaching the Calamity Crossing Realm was the most urgent and important goal for Huang Long at the moment.
Among the dragon race, aside from the Dragon Emperor, there were actually two supreme elders at the divine realm level!
Moreover, besides the dragon race, the Holy Church had clearly begun to target him as well!
Unlike the dragon race’s methods, the Holy Church operated in the shadows, striking from behind—making it even harder to defend against. But once Huang Long reached the Calamity Crossing Realm, he would fear nothing.
In the face of absolute strength, all schemes and deceptions would be useless.
Since the dragon race had just discovered the location of the Ancient Dragon God’s Tomb, they would surely rush there immediately to obtain the dragon god’s body.
If Dragon Emperor Fei Li got it, with his current peak strength in the Sacred Realm, he could definitely advance to the Divine Realm, possibly even reaching the middle or upper stages in a short time!
If that happened, even if Huang Long allied himself with all the major families in the world, it would be of no use.
For their own interests, those forces might even turn against him!
Huang Long had to be prepared for all of this.
Arriving at the Ancient Dragon God’s Tomb!
High above the Endless Sea, Huang Long gazed toward the ruins of the gods, his eyes shining with determination.
As he continued flying toward the ruins, he was surprised to see warriors from various sea clans blocking all sea routes, with many island forces also patrolling the area. He had underestimated the dragon race’s strength and influence overseas.
Huang Long accelerated further to reach the ruins as quickly as possible.
Meanwhile, Dragon Emperor Fei Li, who had returned to the Dragon Palace with the dragon race’s elders, felt uneasy. The deaths of Moro andFiet were too suspicious—happening at just this time.
“Odo,” called Dragon Emperor Fei Li, stopping Odo, who was about to leave the palace.
Odo stopped and turned, saying respectfully, “Your Majesty, the Dragon Emperor, what further orders do you have?”
“Get ready quickly. We’ll head to the ruins of the gods in a moment,” said Dragon Emperor Fei Li, his eyes gleaming.
“Head there in a moment?!” Odo was surprised.
“Good. Inform them and get ready now,” said Dragon Emperor Fei Li with firmness, leaving no room for doubt.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Odo replied respectfully, bowed, and left the Dragon Palace to get ready.
So, not long after the Yellow Dragon killed Moro andFiet, Dragon Emperor Fei Li also led the elite dragons to the Ruins of the Gods.
Of course, the Yellow Dragon was unaware of all this.
Although the dragons ordered the sealing of all routes in the Endless Sea, this did not pose much obstacle to the Yellow Dragon and his group. In just about twenty days of rapid travel, they arrived on the other side of the Endless Sea—the Continent of the Gods.
The Continent of the Gods! They had finally arrived!
The moment the Yellow Dragon and his group set foot on the Continent of the Gods, he felt somewhat relieved.
Next was reaching the Ancient Dragon God’s Tomb.
According toFiet’s memories, the tomb was located in a death forest at the southernmost part of the Continent of the Gods.
However,Fiet did not know the exact location.
In fact, ifFiet weren’t the nephew of Dragon Emperor Fei Li, he wouldn’t have known about it. If the Yellow Dragon had been searching for Moro instead, Moro’s memories wouldn’t have contained any information about the Ancient Dragon God’s Tomb.
Flying above the Continent of the Gods, the Yellow Dragon frowned upon seeing the bizarre monsters on the ground.
The Continent of the Gods was completely different from the Hengyuan Continent—almost the exact opposite.
Strange air currents drifted everywhere. These were not the pure demonic energies typical of the demon race’s hellish realm, but rather mixtures of death, darkness, corruption, evil, and other such forces.
At first glance, the landscape appeared a sickly green; amidst that green, along with black mist, there was even a reddish vapor, like blood.
On the ground, bizarre monsters could be seen at any time—snakes with tiger heads and snake tails, stretching dozens of meters long; dogs resembling giant bulls with multiple tails, these dogs even had horns and were neither dogs nor deer.
There were also monstrous creatures the size of mountains crawling on the ground.
When these creatures crawled, they concealed their presence, and when they encountered prey passing by, they would suddenly rise and attack it. This sight made Bog, Nat, and Gusta break into cold sweats, because when these mountain-sized monsters crawled, their bodies merged with the ground, and their presence remained hidden, making it impossible for the three of them to detect them.
The Continent of the Gods was extremely dangerous on the ground, but the skies weren’t safe either.
In the skies, undead creatures floated around everywhere.
These undead are not ghosts or ethereal beings; they are tangible entities. Unlike evil spirits and monsters on the ground, their forms exist in a liquid state. These undead generally stand four to five meters tall, with some reaching over ten meters. They have human-like limbs, heads, eyes, and mouths. Most are gray in color, some are dark gray, and the rarest are ink-black in color. Along the way, Huang Long found that the strength of these undead could be judged by the color of their bodies—darker colors indicated greater strength. Those gray ones were usually at or below the intermediate level of humans, while the dark gray ones had strengths comparable to human Level 9 warriors. As for those ink-black ones, they possessed the strength of humans at the Sacred Realm level. After advancing tens of thousands of miles into the Continent of Gods, Huang Long encountered over twenty such ink-black undead. Without Huang Long, Bog, Nat, Gusta, and the others, it would have been impossible to go this far. Among these twenty-plus undead at the Sacred Realm level, three even reached the advanced stage of the Sacred Realm, close to its peak. Even Huang Long was surprised and realized the peril of this journey. Had it not been for the protection of the Five Directions Flag, Huang Long might have been injured. As they went deeper, the strength of these undead grew stronger, forcing Huang Long and his group to slow down significantly. The upper air was the domain of the undead, but not absolutely—occasionally, flying evil spirits and monsters could be seen. The strength of these flying evil spirits and monsters was no less than that of the undead. “Rebirth Cutting Technique!” Huang Long shouted firmly. The light in the surrounding space was cut, killing the flying evil spirits that were attacking from ahead. Then, vortex black holes appeared in the space around him. “Star Devouring Technique!” These vortex black holes sucked in the evil spirits that had been shattered into spiritual energy by the Rebirth Cutting Technique. This spiritual energy entered Huang Long’s dantian, where the Samadhi True Fire continuously refined it, turning it into pure energy that flowed through his entire body. As Huang Long’s magical power grew stronger, the Star Devouring Technique became more powerful. It could shatter enemies into spiritual energy, which could then be directly absorbed by Huang Long and transformed into his own vital energy. However, only the spiritual energy of undead, evil spirits, and monsters at the Sacred Realm level was useful to Huang Long at this point. After killing the evil spirit that was at the initial stage of the Sacred Realm and absorbing its spiritual energy, Huang Long circulated his vital energy within his body, feeling another slight improvement.
After entering the Continent of Gods, Huang Long discovered something strange—the Netherworld Divine Tree in the Pavilion of Immortals seemed particularly happy, even excited, after arriving on the Continent of Gods. Through Huang Long’s perception, a pale green energy kept being absorbed by the Netherworld Divine Tree. After passing through the tree’s roots, this energy transformed into pure streams that emerged from the tree, causing the Pavilion of Immortals to emit a humming sound. Although the Pavilion of Immortals had been changing day by day since merging with the Netherworld Divine Tree, with its quality continuously improving, these changes were slow. Without Huang Long’s perception, they would have gone unnoticed. But now, with these pure pale green energies constantly flowing in, the Pavilion’s quality improved several times over. What was going on? Huang Long was puzzled. Could it be that what the Netherworld Divine Tree was absorbing was divine power? When the gods perished, their divine power spread across the Continent of Gods. Despite tens of thousands of years of evolution, it still existed. But what was the origin of this Netherworld Divine Tree, allowing it to absorb divine power? Ten days after arriving on the Continent of Gods, the leaves of the Netherworld Divine Tree became even greener, seemingly containing surging energies, and the tree grew significantly taller. Nine years ago, during Huang Long’s journey to hell, he obtained the Netherworld Divine Tree. Over these nine years, it had continued to change and grow, reaching eighteen or nineteen meters in height. Now, it was growing even taller, approaching twenty meters. Huang Long tried guiding the purified energy from the tree into various meridians in his body, continuously strengthening his physique, and found that his physical strength and durability had also improved markedly. Along the way, Huang Long’s strength had increased greatly. Half a month later, Huang Long and his group finally arrived at the Death Forest at the southernmost part of the Continent of Gods. The Death Forest stretched as far as the eye could see. With his divine perception or his Heavenly Vision skill, Huang Long could see everything within a thousand miles, but he could not locate the edge of this Death Forest. However, under the effect of his Heavenly Vision skill, he was shocked by the strength of the fierce spirits, undead, and monsters living in the Death Forest. It was as if he had entered the heart of theMagic Beast Mountains Mountains—or even the core area of it. His divine perception and Heavenly Vision skill even caused some of the fierce spirits, undead, and monsters to roar and hiss. At the edge of the Death Forest, Huang Long stopped and asked everyone to rest first before preparing to enter the forest. The dark moon rose.
The Continent of Gods and the Continent of Eternal Yuan share the same moon, but due to green, black, and red mists drifting in the upper atmosphere of the Continent of Gods, the moon appears dim when viewed from the ground. However, for the Continent of Gods, both day and night are filled with darkness and a sickly green hue.
