Chapter 0836: The Army Approaches

“What?! Lei Peng and the Tian Feng clans have already advanced toward Hai Luo Mountain?! How fast!” On the Silver Fox Divine Realm, Livia’s face changed drastically upon hearing the news, and she exclaimed in shock.
“That’s right, it’s absolutely true!” Ziniya nodded, her expression serious.
Livia quickly took out a jade talisman to send a message to the Yellow Dragon. But after a while, there was no reply from the Yellow Dragon.
“It won’t do! I must rush to Hai Luo Mountain now!” Livia said anxiously.
“Sister!” Hearing this, Ziniya immediately stepped forward to stop her and said, “Even if you go now, it won’t help. Fei Li is determined to kill the Yellow Dragon. If you go, you won’t be able to help him—you’ll only harm yourself!”
Livia replied, “Sister, even if I die, I still have to go!”
Seeing Livia’s resolute expression, Ziniya grew anxious and said, “Why won’t you listen to reason?! Are you really willing to risk your life for that Yellow Dragon?”
“That’s right!” Livia said. “Sister, you don’t understand. Loving someone means that even dying for them, dying with them, is worth it!”
Ziniya shook her head. “I indeed don’t understand.”
“Sister, this time with Lei Peng and the other clans surrounding the Yellow Dragon, please don’t go. The Silver Fox clan still needs you to lead us!” Livia pleaded.
Ziniya said, “If we’re going anyway, let’s go together. After Fei Li destroys the Yellow Dragon and obtains the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron and the World Tree, his next target will likely be the Silver Fox clan. Rather than wait to die, it’s better to fight to the death now!”
Livia exclaimed anxiously, “Sister, you—”
Ziniya raised her hand and said, “No need to say more. In fact, we might not necessarily lose!” At these words, a wise glint appeared in Ziniya’s eyes.
“Sister, are you referring to Ok, the leader of the Phantom Clan?” Livia asked, intrigued.
Ziniya nodded. “That’s right.”
“But this situation is different from last time. He probably won’t agree!” Livia hesitated. Even if Ok really liked her, he wouldn’t risk his life to help her. Besides, to some extent, the Yellow Dragon was his rival, making it even less likely.
“That’s not certain!” Ziniya replied. “Ok’s identity is somewhat hidden, but I know he has some connection with Daoist Hong Meng. And the Yellow Dragon has obtained Daoist Hong Meng’s Heavenly Sacred Cauldron!”
“You mean, because of Daoist Hong Meng, he’ll help the Yellow Dragon?” Livia’s eyes lit up.
Ziniya nodded.

Sure enough, not long after their conversation ended, Orc arrived in the Silver Fox Divine Realm and offered to ally with the Silver Fox to rescue the Yellow Dragon at Mount Hailuo. Along with Orc were the Patterned Tigers, the Sky-Devouring Pythons, and several other divine kings, including Livia and Ziniya—a total of seven divine kings. It was unclear how Orc had convinced the other divine kings. Although the seven divine kings seemed weak in the face of the combined forces of the Thunder Roc tribes, rescuing the Yellow Dragon was not entirely impossible. Their goal in going to Mount Hailuo was to rescue the Yellow Dragon, not to engage in a fierce battle with Felix and the others. “There’s no time to lose! Let’s set off now—we must reach Mount Hailuo before the Thunder Roc tribes encircle it!” said Orc. Everyone nodded and then transformed into seven streaks of light, traveling swiftly through space and time toward Mount Hailuo. Ten days later, Livia and her six companions arrived at Mount Hailuo. “What? The Yellow Dragon has entered seclusion!” When they reached Mount Hailuo and Rus said the Yellow Dragon had entered seclusion, Livia’s expression changed as she exclaimed in shock. No wonder she had sent messages to the Yellow Dragon all along with no reply—he had entered seclusion! “What should we do?! How could the Yellow Dragon be so foolish? At a time like this, he still chooses to enter seclusion—and a full seclusion at that!” Livia paced anxiously back and forth. “What do we do now?!” Ziniya looked at Orc and the others; faced with this situation, she too didn’t know what to do. “Since the Yellow Dragon has entered full seclusion, we can’t force him to leave. We can only wait for him to emerge!” Orc also couldn’t think of any other solution—only to wait. Livia and the others remained silent; they knew too well the severity of forcing someone out of full seclusion—could lead to losing control of one’s mind and suffering a significant loss in strength, or even death on the spot! “Then did your master say how long this seclusion will last?!” Livia turned to Rus and asked. Rus quickly replied respectfully, “The master said it should be thirty days, and twenty-eight days have already passed!” Livia felt relieved and said, “That means there are only two days left!” Two days—enough time! Felix’s army moved slowly, and at their current pace, it would take another four or five days to reach Mount Hailuo. So, Livia and her six companions waited in the Nais family hall for the Yellow Dragon to emerge. Time passed slowly. Two days had gone by, yet the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron showed no signs of movement, and there was still no sign of the Yellow Dragon emerging. Livia grew increasingly anxious, as did Ziniya and the others, but they could only keep waiting. Three days passed.

“How come the Yellow Dragon still hasn’t emerged from seclusion?!” Livia couldn’t hold back and stood up anxiously, turning to Rus standing nearby and shouting, “Didn’t you say your master would emerge in thirty days? It’s already been over thirty days—why hasn’t he come out yet?!”
Rus, terrified, quickly knelt down and said with a trembling voice, “My Lady Livia, the Divine King, I really don’t know either. That’s what my master said before entering seclusion!”
Ziniya said, “Livia, we can’t blame him for this!” Then she told Rus to get up. She too had furrowed her brows—the army of the Thunder Roc clans was already approaching Mount Hailuo and would arrive within a day. If the Yellow Dragon still hadn’t emerged by then, things would get troublesome!
And it would be quite troublesome!
Because the seven of them alone couldn’t withstand the army of the Thunder Roc clans.
This time, ten Divine Kings—Felii, Saint Bree, Bruchie, Parnaa—had come together. With ten Divine Kings pressing down on them, they were completely at a disadvantage.
The Orcs were also restless, walking back and forth in the grand hall.
An extremely oppressive atmosphere filled the entire hall, so oppressive that Rus felt as if he couldn’t breathe. In fact, not only the Nais Grand Hall but also an area of hundreds of millions of miles around Mount Hailuo was shrouded in this oppressive atmosphere.
Silence.
It was the silence before a storm!
All the descendants of the Nais and Harsch clans were tense, patrolling back and forth, but none of them made a sound.
After four days, suddenly, Rus, who was standing by the hall, felt the hall trembling faintly. No, not just the hall—whole Mount Hailuo, an area of hundreds of millions of miles around it, was shaking.
It was as if some colossal being from the primordial chaos was stepping forward toward Mount Hailuo one step at a time.
The air currents within an area of hundreds of millions of miles around Mount Hailuo became chaotic, as if even those currents felt uneasy.
“Haha!” “Haha!”
The army of the Thunder Roc clans surged downward from the skies like a flood, coming from all directions. A massive army composed of hundreds of millions of powerful beings above the rank of upper gods changed the colors of heaven and earth wherever it passed.
The army of the Thunder Roc clans had finally arrived at Mount Hailuo!
At that moment, inside the Sacred Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, the Yellow Dragon, who had been in seclusion trying to make a breakthrough, had reached the critical moment of slaying two enemies!
The Yellow Dragon sat cross-legged in the void of the grand array inside the cauldron. With each breath, its body flickered in and out of sight, and the vital energy around it continuously transformed into colorful divine dragons.
