Chapter 0995: The Wedding of the Golden Dragon Sacred Lord
As the Yellow Dragon spoke, countless white jade tree roots emerged from the World Tree and pierced through Ji Wushuang’s chest.
Ji Wushuang widened his eyes, lowered his head, and stared at the numerous white jade tree roots in his chest. Slowly, he said, “The World Tree… the premier sacred artifact among all!” With that, he collapsed straight backward.
Blood flowed steadily from his chest and mouth.
Lying there, Ji Wushuang’s body convulsed repeatedly.
The Yellow Dragon waved his hands, drawing the World Tree back into his body, then flew above it.
Ji Wushuang tried hard to lift his head and look at the Yellow Dragon. He opened his mouth, but eventually his head drooped weakly, and his hands, which had been tightly gripping the rocks, relaxed.
The Elder of the Red Blood Demon Eye Ox Clan was dead—killed by the Yellow Dragon!
With a single motion, the Yellow Dragon seized his divine body and placed it inside the Sacred Cauldron. Glancing around, he saw the fragments of the mid-tier sacred divine spear scattered on the ground. With another wave of his hands, he gathered them all into the Sacred Cauldron as well.
Although these fragments were useless to the Yellow Dragon for now, he could refine them later and use them for the people of the Huang family.
After killing Ji Wushuang and Fang Haotian, the Yellow Dragon didn’t linger any longer and left the Heaven Demon Cavern immediately.
Rather than rushing to the Valley of Falling Demons to find the Heavenly Goddess Tree, he went to a lower-tier divine plane in the World of Ten Thousand Demons and concealed himself there, beginning to refine the divine bodies of Fang Haotian and Ji Wushuang.
First, the Yellow Dragon refined Fang Haotian’s body.
Fang Haotian belonged to the early stage of the tenth era. His essence, vitality, and laws of the Dao had little effect on the Yellow Dragon, but he had no choice but to make do.
The more strength he gained, the better his chances of self-preservation.
Inside the Sacred Cauldron, time passed.
The Yellow Dragon sat cross-legged within the Sacred Cauldron array, continuously absorbing the essence, vitality, and laws of the Dao emanating from Fang Haotian’s divine body.
Tens of thousands of years passed, and the Yellow Dragon finally refined Fang Haotian’s body completely.
However, to his disappointment, he only rose from the early peak of the eleventh era to its early stage, unable to break through to the middle stage of that era!
Disappointed, the Yellow Dragon then proceeded to refine Ji Wushuang’s body.
Ji Wushuang belonged to the later stage of the eleventh era. The essence, vitality, and laws of the Dao in his divine body were far beyond what Fang Haotian possessed.
As he refined Ji Wushuang’s body, the Yellow Dragon’s power continued to grow.
Suddenly, with a loud boom, he felt a shock within his body and finally broke through from the early peak of the eleventh era to its middle stage!
Although the mid-stage of the eleventh era was only half a step away from the peak of the early stage, Huang Long’s strength had increased by more than 20%! After reaching mid-stage of the eleventh era, streams of vital energy and the laws of the universe continued to emanate from Ji Wushuang’s divine body. Huang Long kept devouring them. It was like a vast, barren desert—these vital energies and laws of the universe constantly nourished it, yet they would never be enough. In fact, only a powerful entity like Huang Long could devour others’ vital energies and laws of the universe without restraint. Otherwise, even if someone possessed a sacred divine cauldron capable of filtering out impurities from others’ vital energies, they would not dare to do so. This was because a cultivator’s physical body served as a container; if it wasn’t strong enough to hold such vital energies, there was a risk of it bursting. But Huang Long didn’t have to worry about this. Having practiced the Supreme Transformation Art, his physical body was so powerful that even the strongest warriors at the peak of the twelfth era could not surpass him. Huh, huh! As Huang Long devoured more, colorful energy currents radiating from his body created hurricanes resembling celestial blades. Even warriors from the eleventh era would be severely injured if cut by these hurricanes. Eventually, Huang Long completely refined Ji Wushuang’s divine body, bringing his strength to the peak of mid-stage of the eleventh era. Initially, he thought he could break through to the late stage of the eleventh era, so although he was pleased with his improved strength, he was still somewhat disappointed. Of course, if other warriors from the eleventh era knew this, they would be utterly frustrated. By the tenth era, even if one consumed divine pills day and night and trained with the spiritual energy of top-tier or supreme spiritual veins for trillions of years, their strength might not improve even slightly. Huang Long’s progress, however, could only be described as divine-speed and incredible. After refining Ji Wushuang’s divine body, Huang Long emerged from the sacred cauldron, pondered for a while, then headed toward the Valley of Demons. Although the Valley of Demons was dangerous now, one had to venture into the den to obtain the treasure. Once he found the Heavenly Goddess Tree, his physical body could be elevated to the top tier. Then he could devour those top-tier divine artifacts and fragments, making his body ten times stronger than before! A few hours later, Huang Long returned to the skies above the Valley of Demons. Above the valley, groups of semi-saint warriors constantly broke through the demonic clouds to enter it. After news of Huang Long killing Tian Dao Jiao Jun Xuan and eight of his disciples spread, the Valley of Demons had become a place of great intrigue. Warriors from all over the three thousand great worlds flocked there, eager to explore what lay within.
“Brother, have you come here for that Yellow Dragon as well?” Just as the Yellow Dragon was about to break through the magic clouds and enter the Valley of Falling Demons, a voice sounded.
The Yellow Dragon turned to look and saw three people approaching slowly, arriving before it in an instant. The one who spoke was the red-haired young man in the middle, smiling. The two behind him seemed to be his guards.
However, what caught the Yellow Dragon’s attention was the pure dragon energy within these three. Such pure dragon energy—the Yellow Dragon had only sensed it before on Long Yun, the holy maiden of the Panlong clan.
People from the World of Mighty Dragons?
“Indeed,” the Yellow Dragon nodded.
“I am Long Cheng of the Golden Dragon clan. These two are Long Fei, the fifth elder, and Long Fa Yi, the sixth elder of our clan,” the red-haired young man introduced with a smile.
Long Cheng of the Golden Dragon clan?! The Yellow Dragon was slightly surprised.
He knew this Long Cheng—he was the young clan leader of the Golden Dragon clan!
“So you’re the young clan leader of the Golden Dragon clan!” The Yellow Dragon bowed.
Long Cheng and the fifth and sixth elders of the Golden Dragon clan also bowed in return.
Although the Yellow Dragon had changed his appearance to that of a Golden-Horned Giant, he hadn’t concealed his aura. As a powerhouse from eleven eras, Long Cheng and the others didn’t dare to show off their status. Of course, it was also because they recognized the Yellow Dragon’s strength that Long Cheng approached to talk to him.
Later, Long Cheng invited the Yellow Dragon to travel together.
Traveling with the young clan leader of the Golden Dragon clan and using his status would help conceal the Yellow Dragon better, so he naturally didn’t refuse.
“Brother Jin Guang, may I ask which sage’s disciple you are from the World of Mighty Dragons?” After entering the Valley of Falling Demons, Long Cheng asked casually.
Jin Guang was, of course, the alias the Yellow Dragon was using now.
“I practice alone,” the Yellow Dragon replied.
“Practicing alone?” Long Cheng and the others were stunned. Then, Long Cheng smiled and said, “It’s truly rare to find someone who practices alone like Brother Jin Guang and still has such great skills. In a few days, it will be my father’s wedding. I was wondering if Brother Jin Guang could attend?”
My father’s wedding?! The wedding of the Holy Lord of the Golden Dragons?! The Yellow Dragon was shocked.
