Translator: 549690339
Something’s not right!
A strong sense of suspicion arose in Yang Zhen’s heart, something was very wrong with this place!
Why on earth would the mighty Eastern Desolation Emperor go to such lengths to seal an entire race? What on earth had the Sea Dragon Clan done in the past that caused an emperor to intervene and seal the entire clan?
Yang Zhen did not believe, that a supreme Emperor Realm Expert would pity others to such an extent. Even an unrefined chap like Jian Cat knew that all beings had their fates predetermined. Even if the Sea Dragon Clan had once caused havoc in Wanhua Island, the rules of heaven and earth should settle this, not entail the sealing of an entire clan.
Eastern Desolation Emperor must have known that once the seal was removed, if the Sea Dragon Clan had any remnants left, they would inevitably rise from the ashes and cause an even greater disaster.
With the means of the Eastern Desolation Emperor, destroying a clan like the Sea Dragon Clan was not impossible!
There must have been other secrets unknown to people involved in this.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath to calm his heart and took in the complete environment and terrain of the Emperor Island. The Heavenly Book’s Profound Principles ran rapidly in his mind. Mysterious and obscure breaths condensed from mid-air, transforming into hard-to-grasp patterns, all projected in his mind.
Boom!
A deafening noise echoed, and the battlefield of human practitioners and Sea Dragon Clan warriors suddenly erupted. A Sea Dragon Clan member stood in place, body radiating an endless wave of blood. He generated an enormous airwave, blowing everything around him into dust, creating a deep crater with a radius of a hundred meters.
This Sea Dragon Clan member was different from the others. His body wasn’t green but bloody red. Black patterns gleamed on his scales, his eyes blood-red, emitting a terrifying aura that made no one dare to approach.
In the hands of this Sea Dragon Clan member, a human Nascent Soul Stage Expert looked ravaged, all the bones of his body crushed to pieces. From his mouth, he spat blood mixed with fragments of internal organs.
The human practitioners were taken aback at this sight, all swiftly retreated. The Sea Dragon Clan warriors responded with roars and screams.
The dark-red Sea Dragon Clan member let out a furious roar, flung the human practitioner to the ground, and rushed towards Elder Gu at an incredible speed. “Not good, protect Elder Gu!”
“Everyone, there’s something strange about this foreigner, we cannot let him get close to Elder Gu!”
“Everyone, join me and kill this foreigner!”
Many practitioners shouted angrily, bombarding the Sea Dragon Clan member with their various Martial Skills.
The powerful blows capable of turning mountains into oceans fell on the Sea Dragon Clan member, but it was as if they were dropping a rock into the sea, and did not inflict any damage at all.
At this moment, Elder Gu suddenly waved his hand, asking the many practitioners to step back. He went to face the Sea Dragon Clan member alone. His aura augmented tremendously, threatening to engulf everything in sight.
Boom!
A surge of power from a Divine Travel Stage Expert erupted from Elder Gu. Along with the dazzling golden light, there was a sense of intimidation that made people step back.
The True Essence fluctuations released from both East Gu and the Sea Dragon Clan warrior were terrifying and shocking.
The two super-powerful fighters collided at increasingly faster speeds, shaking the earth and mountains. A terrifying wave of power spread around in all directions, plowing everything in its vicinity to the ground.
“This…this is a fight between Divine Travel Stage Experts!”
Everyone was dumbfounded witnessing this terrifying scene. Such high-stakes combat made the other members of the Sea Dragon Clan stop in their tracks and look up in shock.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
An incredible force that shook the earth and mountains collided repeatedly, annihilating the surrounding forest. The debris was flying all around, and everybody was forced to keep their distance.
Yang Zhen, seemingly oblivious to this combat, suddenly trembled with his eyes closed, his face turning pale with shock.
Wang Meiling let out a startled cry, trying to awaken Yang Zhen, but was stopped by Jian Cat.
Seeing the change in Yang Zhen, Feline shot a look of surprise and uncertainty at Wang Meiling, saying, “Do not disturb him.”
Then Feline, her face odd, glanced at Yang Zhen and muttered, “The Heavenly Book’s Chapter of Mysterious Principles… no wonder…”
At that moment, Yang Zhen was in shock. In his mind appeared a terrifying image of landscapes, heaven and earth, combined with the Sea Dragon Pool and Emperor Island.
On the Coast of the East Sea, three islands forming a protruding angle made a celestial portal of snakes and turtles, while Donglin’s place in the earth’s pivot with Wanhua Island as the dragon’s head completely fooled everyone. This was Eastern Desolation Emperor’s plan to seize the great changes of heaven and earth.
As Yang Zhen observed the undercurrents in his mind, waves of shock furiously stirred within him, far more shocking than witnessing the explosive emergence of the Sea Dragon Clan.
The Heavenly Book’s Chapter of Mysterious Principles offered explanations about the universal trends of heaven and earth. Yet even several decades or centuries of investigation by Yang Zhen would likely not enable him to arrange such an extraordinary formation to seize the changes of heaven and earth.
Emperor Island wasn’t created by the Eastern Desolation Emperor to suppress the Sea Dragon Clan but was rather a Dragon Stealing Platform – stealing fate of the heavens, the earth’s energy, a whole generation’s luck.
What baffled Yang Zhen was that such a Dragon Stealing Platform would hurt both the heavens and the thief. Wanhua Island was the sole beneficiary among the three islands on the Coast of the East Sea; as long as the Dragon Stealing Platform stood, Wanhua Island could remain eternally.
He’s gone mad. The Eastern Desolation Emperor must’ve gone mad. What could possibly be worth all this trouble to maintain the existence of a single island? What was he trying to accomplish?
Wanhua Island must hold a secret, but what secret is so valuable that it prompted Eastern Desolation Emperor to go through all this for a grand strategy?
Then there’s the Sea Dragon Clan. Their being sealed for so many years had less to do with their conflict with the humans of Wanhua Island than the Sea Dragon Clan’s terrible, terrible luck!
Had they evacuated from the Sea Dragon Pool in time, they likely wouldn’t have been sealed by the Eastern Desolation Emperor.
This…
Yang Zhen’s mind was a mess. He was utterly confused!
Buzz!
A painful sensation twisted through his mind. Yang Zhen groaned, his face turning pale.
Suddenly, Feline’s voice rang out in his mind, as shocking as a thunderclap, “Wake up!”
Yang Zhen’s eyes shot open. He took a deep breath, cold sweat dripping down his face. He looked at Feline with a dumbfounded expression, blurting out, “Why?”
“Why what?” asked Wang Meiling, looking closely at Yang Zhen.
“Don’t ask…” warned Feline, her face full of awe and confusion as she watched Yang Zhen.
“Why?” Yang Zhen focused on Feline, continuing, “During the Shanggeng time period, what exactly happened to make the Eastern Desolation Emperor act in such madness? How could he willingly suppress a clan, seize the changes of three islands, and arrange such a shocking scheme?”
Feline looked back at Yang Zhen, uncertainly. She rubbed her head and said, “Ah, that reminds me of something.”
“What?” asked Yang Zhen, curiously, ignoring the confused look on Wang Meiling’s face.
“Do you remember the Dust Blood Great Sage?” Feline counter-asked.
Yang Zhen nodded. Of course, he remembered the Dust Blood Great Sage, how could he forget about the woman in the coffin or the Dust Blood Great Sage?
Feline looked bewildered, hesitating before finally saying, “During that time when the world was in turmoil, I am not sure what exactly happened… I really don’t know. All the people above the Great Saint Realm were busy with their own afterlife arrangements. It was during this that I was accidentally trapped in the Shanggeng Mirror World by the Dust Blood Great Sage. As for the other matters, I am not too clear about them.”
“Arrange the afterlife?” Yang Zhen’s eyes widened.
What on earth had happened, that even the most powerful beings in heaven and earth were arranging their own afterlife while they were still alive?
