Chapter 1136: Offering Everything for Revenge

Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm.

Scorching dragon flames exploded, reducing an entire mountain to ashes.

The crimson lizard dragon’s flamethrowing mouth hadn’t even closed when a bright blue lightning sword projection swept through the air before striking the resolute dragon scales on the dragon’s neck.

The sword projection was terrifyingly sharp, and it sliced apart the dragon scales like a hot knife through butter.

“Howl!” The crimson lizard dragon only had a chance to let loose an anguished wail before its massive head was sliced off!

Blood gushed forth into the air.

However, none of it splattered onto the woman in the jade dress as she gracefully sheathed her sword.

A flow of energy fused into her body from the lizard dragon’s decapitated body.

“There is no vessel for the energy, so it’s choosing a new owner?” Xu Xiaolan mused with a thoughtful expression.

She discovered that the power of dragons flowing into her body not only fused with the power of her True Dragon bloodline, it was also refined by the power of the Vermilion Bird in her body to make the power of dragon purer.

“The overly powerful Vermilion Bird bloodline within my body is the reason for my extraordinary cultivation base progression.

“However, in comparison to the power of the Vermilion Bird, the power of the True Dragon within my body is simply too weak and that is the bottleneck I must overcome to make further breakthroughs.”

A vibrant smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face. “I can quickly increase the power of the True Dragon bloodline here. This is a fantastic opportunity that I must take full advantage of.

“The moment my True Dragon bloodline becomes just as powerful as my Vermilion Bird bloodline is the moment I will be able to break through my bottleneck!”

Xu Xiaolan set forth with renewed vigor on her journey.

On a vast expanse of white sand.

“Howl, kukuku… There is a little Dragon Tribe kid over there. He looks really weak! What fantastic luck! Let’s go and eat him!”

Immediately afterward, the sound of bloodcurdling cries erupted from the realm of white sand.

Soon, everything fell quiet again.

After a long while, the voice of a Dragon Tribe cultivator sounded yet again.

“Howl, hahaha… There is a little Dragon Tribe kid over there. He looks really weak! Let’s go and eat him!”

“You stupid c*nt! The elderly and kids here are always the ones hiding their power and drawing others into false senses of security! We have to hurry up and run!”

Another Dragon Tribe cultivator roared.

In the next instant, more bloodcurdling cries erupted from the realm of white sand.

“Howl…!”

“Save me! Howl!”

Silence soon ensued again.

A delicate youth strolled along the realm of white sand.

“It doesn’t matter whether you attack me or run away. Your fate has been sealed from the moment you encountered me.” Xiao Ze heaved a faint sight before continuing onward.

He couldn’t even remember how many years he had been stuck at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage. He was probably older than everyone in the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas combined.

He wasn’t unable to break through due to insufficient aptitude; he just felt like he hadn’t attained the most powerful defense he was searching for yet.

After attaining the power of the divine dao, he would have to follow that path and would be unable to deviate from it. As such, why not attain the most powerful defensive divine dao?

His forte was his defense, but his defense wasn’t the most powerful. He didn’t know how to become the most powerful, but he felt like perhaps this place could give him an answer.

“What a familiar place.”

A reminiscent expression appeared on Xiao Ze’s face as he strolled slowly across the white sand.

“What is the most unavoidable and ruthless power? It is not ice, fire, sabers, or swords, nor wind, lightning, or poison. It is, instead, time. Time can take away one’s looks, one’s life, and one’s family and friends. Time can take away my everything…”

Even though Xiao Ze was in the form of a youth, the age and maturity in his eyes belied his appearance.

The white sand below his feet was once a bustling Dragon Tribe city.

There were lively markets, luxurious palaces, elegant buildings, and dragon arenas…

However, everything had been stripped away by time and reduced to this boundless expanse of white sand.

Aside from an old dragon like him, none of the living beings here would remember this. They would think that this place had been a vast expanse of sand all along.

What would keep the invasive effects of time at bay?

The youth continued onward.

It was as if he were walking down a path where there was never going to be an end.

In another location on the Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm.

A fierce battle was taking place.

This was an earth-shattering battle, and just the shockwaves of the battle triggered lightning, gale-force winds, violent storms, and all sorts of natural disasters.

“Howl! How dare you kill my wife? I’ll kill you!”

A white dragon had a crazed expression in his golden eyes as he pounced toward a black dragon in a mad frenzy.

The black dragon had a pair of crimson eyes and was several thousand feet in length. Its shape resembled that of an East Sea dragon, but it had a pair of huge bat wings on its back.

It chortled with glee, and its sharp claws were like impossibly sharp sabers, slicing one strip of flesh after another from the white dragon’s body at extreme speed.

“Hahaha… Ao Mingyu, it’s your fault for bringing your dao partner when you lack the strength to protect her. Don’t worry, you’ll be able to meet her soon.” The black dragon chortled as it broke through each and every one of Ao Mingyu’s frenzied attacks, slicing off chunks of flesh from his body in the meantime.

It could immediately kill Ao Mingyu, but it didn’t do so. It was thoroughly enjoying the process of torturing an opponent who was roaring with rage and pain but was unable to do anything but succumb to despair and eventually death.

A Return to Void Intermediate Stage evil dragon had no problem dealing with a Return to Void Initial Stage East Sea dragon. Furthermore, this was an evil dragon that was more proficient in hunting down and killing its prey, so it was definitely not going to let Ao Mingyu escape.

“Hehe, I killed your dao partner, but you can’t even land a single scratch on me. Is this all you’re capable of?” The evil dragon evaded Ao Mingyu’s attacks through the use of a series of agile movement techniques, making sure to torture him whenever he got the opportunity to do so.

Ao Mingyu was attacking without any regard for his life. He had also unleashed a mystic technique, but he was still unable to do anything to the evil dragon.

“Howl! Kill you! I’ll kill you!” Ao Mingyu’s eyes were completely bloodshot as he roared with rage.

“Are you angry? Are you enraged? Hehe… The more infuriated you are, the more excited I become. Cry and roar all you want! No one is going to save you even if you scream yourself hoarse.” The evil dragon poked its long tongue out as it cackled with joy.

“Oh? No one is going to save him even if he screams himself hoarse? You’re making such a massive commotion, and you think no one is going to notice?” a voice said from a distance.

“Who’s there?!” The evil dragon instantly turned toward the direction the voice came from.

It discovered a man flying toward them atop a brick with a gallant expression on his face.

The evil dragon was dumbstruck. “What the hell is this thing?”

An Lin: “…”

The evil dragon found it simply inconceivable that a human would appear on a battleground for the Dragon Tribe in the Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm.

“Your daddy is here!” An Lin was enraged.

Why was this always the first sentence he heard when he encountered a Dragon Tribe cultivator here?

Such rude b*stards!

He was trying to look for Xu Xiaolan, but he kept on encountering these weird dragons instead.

The evil dragon’s scales stood on end upon hearing this. “Do you want to die?”

Ao Mingyu’s expression also faltered upon seeing An Lin.

However, he seemed to have quickly arrived at an important decision, and he roared with his bloodshot golden eyes. “An Lin, if you kill this evil dragon and avenge my dao partner for me, I’ll give you my everything!”

An Lin recoiled with a disgusted expression. “Who wants your everything?

“I don’t swing that way! How disgusting!”

Ao Mingyu: “…”

The evil dragon chortled with mirth. “Ao Mingyu, have you gone insane from rage? You’re asking a Soul Formation Stage human to avenge your dao partner for you? Hahaha… You’re killing me!”

Boom!

Right at this moment, a suffocating aura suddenly erupted into the sky.

An Lin’s body turned crimson golden as a smile appeared on his face. “Ao Mingyu, I don’t need your everything, but I’m going to need some compensation from you for killing this dragon.”
