The Great Wild God - Chapter 540
Chapter 540 True Dragon Omen
“Rumor has it that Tao Jinghong has reached the Heavenly Human Realm and peeped at the True Dragon Omen. Have you ever heard such rumors?” Emperor Xi Wu asked.
“The True Dragon has already appeared. It just so happens to fulfill the omen of the northwest.” Emperor Xi said.
“Chen Xun!” Emperor Xi said calmly.
“In your opinion, what should we do?” Emperor Xi asked calmly.
“One Yin and one Yang are the Dao, and changing the situation is the right,” Emperor Xi Wu said softly. “If there is no True Dragon in Cloud Continent, then with your power techniques, there is no problem governing Cloud Continent. However, the Dao of Power cannot suppress the Dao of Heaven. If you force your killing intent, it will only reduce the luck of our Jiang Clan. This was how the Ji Clan perished back then. “In the past, my killing intent was too heavy, and my comprehension of the fragment of the Ancestral Dragon Art. It took me two thousand years to reach Nirvana …”
“I know that even though Chen Xun hasn’t reached the Dao realm, he is also proficient in power techniques. Therefore, I have abandoned all of the strategies he offered to rule the barbarians,” continued Emperor Xi Wu. “But I’m observing the omens. The Heavenly Dao True Dragon was indeed formed in Crescent Moon City a dozen days ago. Before, it was unlikely that Chen Xun would have known the cultivation secret of the Heavenly Dao True Dragon. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have let me sense it without concealing it. From the looks of it, the plan he had offered earlier was out of his heart. It wasn’t caused by power, but rather, there would be no future trouble if he had used it.”
“The dao I cultivate is different. It’s hard to sense,” said Emperor Xi Wu. “If it weren’t for the fact that the Ancestral Dragon was by my side, I wouldn’t have sensed the birth of a Heavenly Dao True Dragon.”
**********************
Although the desolate island was shrouded in thunderclouds all year round, it was 8,000 to 9,000 kilometers deep from east to west, and 3,000 to 4,000 kilometers wide from south to north. In terms of area, it was as large as 40 to 50 Wolf Fang Peninsula, accounting for almost a quarter of the territory controlled by Danzhou.
Emperor Zhao’s seal was somewhat different from what he had said before. The meaning behind it was that Emperor Xi Wu and the Jiang clan seemed to want the Kui Dragon Pavilion to move into the Tian Jun Great World.
Chen Xun guessed that Emperor Xi Wu’s Dao Art was most likely closely related to the Grand Heavenly Dao.
If Martial Emperor Xi cultivated the Grand Heavenly Dao, then it wouldn’t be strange for him to be sensed by Martial Emperor Xi when he cultivated the Heavenly Dao Form in Crescent City.
Luo Yuze of Dragon Gate Sect, Adept Chu Yue of the Xuandu Sect, had just led hundreds of disciples of the two sects into the Heavenly Jun Great World. This time, they directly followed King of Qing to Crescent Moon City.
The situation in Danzhou City was too complicated. Luo Yuze and Daoist Chu Yue believed that their cultivation levels would not be able to hold on to the situation. They would be able to lead the disciples to Crescent Moon City and obtain real calendar refinement.
After the Battle of Darkness Ridge, Chen Xun had not seen Daoist Chu Yue, Luo Yuze, and the others for many years. He personally went to the crescent moon gate to welcome them and King of Qing into the city.
“Unknowingly, I have been cultivating in Heavenly Jun for four years. How is the situation in Darkness Ridge these days?” Chen Xun asked with concern.
Right now, only people from Mountain Parasol came in and out of the Heavenly Jun Great World every three to five months to relay news. Chen Xun wanted to know the latest developments in Darkness Ridge, so he had to ask other sects about it.
“The allied forces of the various sects have captured Stone Gate Valley a few days ago and have taken control of all the important passes at the southern foot,” Luo Yuze said. “However, the resistance of the demons is not as strong as imagined. It seems that there are some signs of the Great Demon General level demons withdrawing from Darkness Ridge in batches, but there are no clues …”
Chen Xun frowned slightly. The Great Demon General level demons all had the cultivation to transform. Back then, the Demon Marshal Crimson Flame was able to hide in the Azure Water for a hundred years, and even Su Yuan, the Su Clan’s ancestor who had cultivated the Origin Core Realm, hadn’t noticed it. This meant that the demons had a secret technique to restrain their demonic aura.
Dozens of days later, the demons would abandon Darkness Ridge and hide in the tens of billions of humans in Cloud Continent. It would not be easy to find out.
However, since the demons were willing to abandon Darkness Ridge, it could be considered a staged victory for the sects to join forces to wipe out the remaining demons in Darkness Ridge.
As for what schemes the demons had, and when they would revive the demonic tribulation in Cloud Continent, as long as the various sects did not forget their original intentions, they would naturally be able to use water to cover the earth and soldiers to block it.
Invite King of Qing, Ge Tong, Luo Yuze, and Daoist Chu Yue to sit in the main hall. Chen Xun asked Luo Yuze, Daoist Chu Yue, “Dragon Gate Sect, the Xuandu Sect also wants to choose a place to build a city in the Binhai Low Ridge area?”
“The two sects don’t want to participate too much in Danzhou’s secular affairs, but building Danzhou together is also our responsibility,” Luo Yuze said. “Since the Kui Long Pavilion will guard Thundercloud Island, there’s no need to worry that powerful demonic beasts will invade the coastal waters. We came here to build the city, so we can be considered to have the honor of True Chen.”
“That’s easy to say.” Chen Xun said with a smile. Then, he talked about how hard it was to build Crescent Moon City. The Dragon Gate Sect and the Xuandu Sect had built a city at the southern foot of Snowdragon Mountain, and Crescent Moon City would provide all possible support.
He didn’t see any important figures from the Wei Clan, Su Clan, or Wu Clan rushing to Crescent Moon City with King of Qing. He was slightly disappointed and thought that it was normal.
The sect was able to separate the secular power from the secular power, but the clan naturally merged with the secular power.
The disciples of the Su, Wei, and Wu clans entered the Heavenly Jun Great World and accepted a large number of fiefs in order to directly rule over the barbarian tribes that inhabited these territories. There was no lack of bloody suppression. It would be better to directly seize the deep mountain canyons that these barbarian tribes had inhabited and reproduced for generations now.
The deep valleys may seem inaccessible, but they are much easier to manage than the coastal plains that are hit by thunderstorms and tsunamis every once in a while.
Even if powerful demonic beasts attacked from the sea of storms, the first to be harassed was the coastal plains, and the deep valleys were much safer.
Otherwise, the savage tribes of Snowdragon Mountain would not have lived in these valleys for generations.
Although there weren’t many flat lands that could reproduce in the deep valleys, the population in the middle foot of Snowdragon Mountain was too sparse. Even if the population increased tenfold or eightfold, these deep valleys could accommodate it.
Therefore, for the Su, Wei, and Wu clans, entering Danzhou and choosing the mountain fiefdoms was a priority. Only those sects that were unwilling to engage in bloody conflicts with the Snowdragon Mountain barbarian tribes and had no interest in secular power would choose to develop in the desolate coastal plains.
However, it was much harder to establish a foothold in the coastal plains.
It was Chen Xun who was also in charge of Crescent Moon City, so he barely managed to build it, gathering 20,000 people.
Compared to the territory and population controlled by the various sects in Cloud Continent, the size of Crescent Moon City was nothing.
