Asura Sovereign VI

by Shian Jeen

  Just like it happened to Huwang Xiao before, a bright dazzling light shone up thousands of zhang above the water surface as a majestic momentum of dragon might pierced the sky, then, the same black hole appeared in front of Chen Tianqi’s group.

  Watching a black hole appear above the tiny river, the other Domain Leaders were stunned, and then delighted. Could this be…?! But, within the next moment, the black hole started to shrink.

  “Everyone quick, enter!” Chen Tianqi shouted, taking the lead by jumping in to the dark hole. The rest awoke using their daze, quickly leaping into the black opening one by one.

  In two breaths’ time, the dark hole vanished.

  Not long after Chen Tianqi disappeared, several groups of individuals rushed over from a few different directions. Clearly, these were attracted by the dragon might aura released from the black gap earlier.

  When these people arrived, each of them jumped down, landing in the ravine bottom. Like Chen Tianqi did previously, they noticed the peculiar space ripples above the small river, thus more and more people joined through the dark hole.

  All in all, more than 10 organizations from different forces made it in. And within these groups, Li Molin and the Deities Templar experts were amongst them.

  As for Huwang Xiao’s group, after jumping in to the black hole space, their bodies spun around uncontrollably for a time before falling onto a flat surface plain.

  Around the flat plain was an endless stretch of mountains. The first thing that drawn Huwang Xiao’s attention was the trees and shrubs in the mountains, they were extremely big, towering trees.

  At the edge of the simple was a large city, resembling a colossal dragon resting on the simple, emanating an overwhelming dragon might that filled the whole space.

  “Dragon City!” Zhao Shu blurted out.

  Duan Ren and others were baffled, “Dragon City?”

  It was rumored that in the ancient times, the Dragon Clan built a Dragon City and clan members lived in this Dragon City. The Dragon City’s fame was parallel to the Ghost City that made an appearance not too long ago. In fact, it was even more famous than the Ghost King’s Ghost City.

  In the ancient times, the human race had six great ancient kings, with the Saint King standing at the top, but that merely represented the people. The leader of the Dragon Clan in historic times, the Dragon Emperor, was mighty and powerful, even the Saint Ruler dared not challenge his prestige.

  “Go!” Huwang Xiao flew forward, heading towards the Dragon City at the advantage of the basic at breakneck speed. Zhao Shu and the others followed closely behind.

  It didn’t take long for Huwang Xiao to reach the Dragon City’s gates. Ancient cities such as the Dragon City and Ghost City were protected with layers upon levels of arrays and bans, one could only enter safely through the main city gates.

  However, just as Huwang Xiao, Zhao Shu, Duan Ren, and the rest were about to pass through the city gates, the Dragon City gates shone brightly, revealing a giant bone dragon before their route, blocking their way. A horrifying loss of life aura enveloped the group.

  Looking at this hundred zhang long ancient bone dragon, everyone’s expressions tightened.

  After a Dragon warrior’s death, some Dragon Clan experts would use secret art to refine them into an undead bone dragon to guard some important places of the Dragon Clan. And this undead dragon in front of them was exuding a terrifying atmosphere, an undead bone dragon that acquired reached peak late-Tenth Order Saint realm.

  How horrifying a peak late-Tenth Order Saint world undead bone dragon could be, Zhao Shu knew very well.

  Ch.358

  Huwang Xiao was stunned at the unexpected emergence of the undead bone dragon. He didn’t expect merely the town gates to contain an undead bone dragon guardian.

  While individuals were still shocked and confused, the peak late-Tenth Order Saint realm undead bone dragon’s claw extended, stepping down towards Huwang Xiao at unimaginable speed. If Huwang Xiao was stepped on, as strong as his physical defense was, he would still turn in a set meat paste.

  “Young Lord!” Zhao Shu was terrified, without hesitation he struck his hand at the undead bone dragon, but it was evident that Zhao Shu was a step too late. The undead bone dragon’s claw was right above Huwang Xiao.

  Viewing as Huwang Xiao was about to be converted into meats paste, a blinding light flashed and Huwang Xiao disappeared from the spot.

  Space concealment!

  A loud boom resounded when the undead bone dragon’s claw slammed into the floor where Huwang Xiao stood earlier. Violent tremors shook the ground, raising a curtain of sand and dust.

  A long buzzing noise drummed in everyone’s ears.

  Almost at exactly the same time, Zhao Shu’s attack landed on the bone dragon’s leg and another ‘boom’ rang out. The bone dragon was knocked back again a dozen meters, then steadied itself.

  Yet it was enough to cause Duan Ren to inhale sharply, for Zhao Shu’s powerful attack did nothing but knock the bone dragon back. It wasn’t injured in the least!

  Huwang Xiao reappeared on the side, looking at the bone dragon with a tiny frown on his brows. They couldn't be delayed here, when he opened the black hole space entry just now, that strong dragon might aura must have captivated the attention of closeby experts, there would definitely be quite a number of experts following behind them. Therefore, he previously to step into Dragon City before anyone else arrived.

  What to do?! Forced entry was out of the question.

  Huwang Xiao’s eye shone as he searches for a method, it seems there is no other choice but to use the Godly Mt. Xumi!

  Just when Zhao Shu, Duan Ren, and the others wished to assault the bone dragon together, an aureate light flashed, blinding their eyes. Opening them again, they found themselves inside a spacious hall.

  Zhao Shu and Feng Yang already entered the Godly Mt. Xumi before, thus they weren’t amazed at the sudden change of environment, but Duan Ren’s band of three were alarmed and baffled.

  “This is..?!” Duan Ren asked in shock.

  Huwang Xiao did not answer, shrinking the Godly Mt. Xumi to the size of a speck of dirt and floated with the wind, very quickly passing through the bone dragon, entering Dragon City.

  Duan Ren watched as they approved right under the bone dragon without receiving any strike from it, his heart quickened. What is this? To be able to escape the detection of a peak past due- Tenth Order Saint realm bone dragon?! To Duan Ren, this was an impossible feat to begin with.

  As the three were wallowing in bewilderment, Huwang Xiao brought everyone in to the Dragon City. In the air space above the Dragon City, a blinding light flashed again, everyone was out of the spacious hall and Huwang Xiao came back the Godly Mt. Xumi into his body.

  “Young Noble Huwang, just now, that...?” Unable to restrain the gnawing attention in his heart, Duan Ren asked aloud.

  Huwang Xiao shook his head, saying, “Brother Duan Ren, it’s better we focus on searching for the Dragon Clan’s treasures.”

  Duan Ren was taken aback at the rejection, then he understood Huwang Xiao’s underlying meaning.

  At this time, Zhao Shu looked at Duan Ren and the other two Saint world experts with a dignified manifestation, “The matter just now, I am hoping the three of you will keep it to yourselves, don’t mention it to anyone.” Although the three of them were unable to link the place at the moment to Godly Mt. Xumi, it didn’t mean that they couldn’t in the future. Zhao Shu didn’t want the matter about Huwang Xiao possessing the Godly Mt. Xumi to be leaked out.

  At the very least, not at this time!

  The God Binding Ring, Absolute Soul Pearl, and Linglong Treasure Pagoda couldn’t be compared to the Godly Mt. Xumi. If Huwang Xiao having the Godly Mt. Xumi was leaked out, it would bring a horde of limitless troubles.

  Seeing Zhao Shu’s grave expression, Duan Ren and the rest nodded solemnly, “Mister Zhao, rest assured, we will not breathe a word out about what happened earlier.”
/>   Zhao Shu nodded.

  “Let’s go, we must find the Dragon Clan’s treasures as fast as possible! ” Huwang Xiao said and flew off. This was the most crucial of all. Huwang Xiao believed that Duan Ren wouldn’t say anything in what happened, that was one of the reasons he used the Godly Mt. Xumi without much deliberation.

  Shortly after Huwang Xiao, Zhao Shu, Duan Ren, and the others passed through the Dragon City gates, Chen Tianqi’s group of Asura’s Gate experts arrived in front of the city gates. Just like what occurred to Huwang Xiao’s group, when Chen Tianqi and his subordinates were going to pass through the gates, the same peak-late-Tenth Order Sain realm undead bone dragon clogged their path.

  Huwang Xiao possessed the Godly Mt. Xumi, allowing him to pass through the gates undetected, but Chen Tianqi’s group wasn’t so lucky. Among the Asura’s Gate Area Leaders was pierced by the bone dragon’s huge tail when he was too slow in dodging, right through his chest, and then flung away by the bone dragon.

  At exactly the same time, Huwang Xiao’s group was flying at high speed across the Dragon City, trying sense any unique energy fluctuations of the Dragon Clan’s treasures, however, ever since they came into the Ancient Dragon Clan’s ruins, the black and blue dragon martial spirits in Huwang Xiao’s body quieted once again, as if they were suppressed by something.

  More than an hour later, Huwang Xiao’s group had yet to have any harvest.

  The Dragon City was several times bigger than the Ghost City, even with Huwang Xiao’s group’s speed, they still needed a few days to cover every corner of the town. Such method of blind searching was no different than trying to find a needle in the vast sea. Not only that, there was the increasing pressure of more and more experts entering the city as time went on, breaking past the undead bone dragon’s defenses.

  One hour later, Huwang Xiao stopped, suggesting in a grave voice, “It’s better if everyone split up and search. ” That way, chances of finding something was greater.

  “Agreed.” Duan Ren nodded, no objection.

  Thus, Huwang Xiao, Zhao Shu, and large ghost Feng Yang went in one group, while Duan Ren grouped with the other two Duanren Institute Honorable Saint Experts, and separated.

  Still, another hour passed without any harvest. Huwang Xiao’s group of three split once more, each to rely on their own luck.

  Not long after separating from Zhao Shu and Feng Yang, Huwang Xiao stopped above a palace building. This building was triangle-shaped, reaching up to a hundred zhang high, with a big area at the bottom, close to several thousand square feet. It had been much larger set alongside the other buildings that Huwang Xiao had seen so far in the Dragon City.

  Looking as of this particular building, Huwang Xiao landed on the primary entrance below in a flicker. Despite the twin dragons inside his body being silent, Huwang Xiao experienced previously refined an Earth Dragon egg, thus he was quite familiar with the dragon aura, as long as he was within a certain distance, he could sense it.

  This triangular building had that same aura, and it was very strong!

  The problem was, the door was tightly shut.

  He checked the door using the Eye of Hell, and after confirming that there were no traps placed on the door, Huwang Xiao struck the entranceway open and entered. The moment Huwang Xiao moved into the hall, a powerful dragon aura washed over him, yet it was different from the Earth Dragon egg that Huwang Xiao got previously refined.

  ‘This is?!” Huwang Xiao’s eyes widened, greatly astounded looking at the four crystal pillars in the hall.

  Numerous pieces of blood-red rubies in different sizes formed jutting out on the surface of these four pillars, some small, others big. The small ones were about how big is a fist, whereas the larges ones reached half a meter wide.

  “Dragon Blood Crystals?!” Huwang Xiao exclaimed.

  When Dragon experts cultivated by breathing in dragon qi, under years of accumulation, the place where they sat would give birth to these Dragon Bloodstream Crystals, containing a Dragon expert’s true essence and dragon qi. It was a true treasure for cultivators! Although a piece of Dragon Blood Crystal couldn’t be compared to a dragon egg, the number of Dragon Bloodstream Crystals stuck on these four pillars was probably near to a thousand!

  Close to a thousand bits of Dragon Blood Crystals!

  Ch.359

  Huwang Xiao stared lovingly at the thousand pieces of Dragon Bloodstream Crystal on the four crystal pillars, he was elated, this trip truly was not in vain!

  Even if he could not find any dragon eggs or other Dragon Clan treasures after this, just this loot of Dragon Blood Crystal was enough to help Huwang Xiao enhance his strength a great deal! Moreover, just like the dragon egg, these Dragon Bloodstream Crystal acquired the wondrous effect of improving his flesh further.

  The last time Huwang Xiao refined the planet earth Dragon egg, his physical defense and strength soared. After he assimilated these thousand Dragon Blood Crystals, he could only imagine the horrifying extent that his flesh and power would rise to.

  Just thinking about it made Huwang Xiao’s breath quicken. In a flicker, he appeared next to one of the crystal pillars. Each crystal pillar was about a hundred zhang tall, Huwang Xiao resembled a grain of fine sand standing up next to such a colossal crystal pillar.

  Now, he had to think of ways to remove the Dragon Bloodstream Crystals from the pillars. It would take far too long to do it one at a time, especially with the many experts trailing behind him getting into the Dragon City and finding this place, just like him. Hence, Huwang Xiao didn't have much time.

  Pondering for a moment, Huwang Xiao them leaped up with the Blades of Asura in his hands. Having a few waves of his hands, the hundred zhang crystal pillar was cut into ten sections, each section ten zhang long. With this, Huwang Xiao transferred everything into the Asura Ring.

  He decided to collect all four pillars first, he'd take his time to separate them from the pillar after leaving the Dragon City. In a short time, the rest of the three crystal pillars were also slashed into ten by Huwang Xiao and kept in to the Asura Ring.

  When all was done, Huwang Xiao was secretly relieved. However, he did not immediately leave, instead, he walked towards the golden throne seat in the middle of the great hall.

  A golden throne with the height of ten zhang, carved within an intricate five-clawed golden dragon. When Huwang Xiao was dealing with the four crystal pillars, he sensed a solid dragon breath from this fantastic throne, stronger than the four crystal pillars!

  A very powerful aura!

  Huwang Xiao walked closer to the throne seat, but what baffled him was, whether on the throne or around it, there was nothing that could be considered a Dragon Clan treasure, prompting Huwang Xiao to open up his Eye of Hell. When the attention of Hell’s red glow shone on the golden throne chair, Huwang Xiao was stupefied. Hidden underneath the five-clawed fantastic dragon throne was the entry to another space!

  That overpowering dragon breath originated from there. This!

  Huwang Xiao’s eye lit up bright as he carefully checked the golden dragon throne. If there is an independent space, one had to use a spatial transfer array to enter.

  Moments later, Huwang Xiao’s gaze fell on the golden dragon throne itself, his fingers trailing along the places that might trigger the spatial array’s activation. Just when Huwang Xiao’s finger touched the dragon pearl in the five-clawed golden dragon’s mouth area, rays of fantastic light burst out from within the dragon throne. A sudden suction pressure enveloped Huwang Xiao, and in a blink, the view changed before his eyes, arriving above a huge sea.

  Looking at the ocean below his feet, Huwang Xiao hesitated a second before diving in, heading to the bottom. Several hundred meters below water surface, Huwang Xiao saw an underwater crystal palace that was built from a material unknown to him. The crystal palace occupied a ten-mile radius of land.

  It didn’t take him long to attain the crystal palace entrance.

  “Dragon Palace.” Huwang Xiao r
aised his head, reading the words on the sign hanging above the palace gates, inscribed with what ‘Dragon Palace’.

  “This, could it be where one of the Dragon Clan’s strong experts cultivated?” Huwang Xiao was surprised.

  He had read many ancient manuscripts, it was recorded that only the Dragon Clan’s elders’ palace was eligible to be called Dragon Palace, while the Dragon Emperor’s palace was named Imperial Dragon Palace.

  Recovering from his surprise, Huwang Xiao grinned with glee. He didn’t expect to run into a robust Dragon Clan Elder’s cultivation space.

  In the ancient times, every Dragon Clan Elder was a God Realm Master, their status was undeniably high, not to mention authority. Since this is a Dragon Clan Elder’s personal cultivation space, then there had to be a lot of good stuff inside!

  Excitement surged in his center as he flew into the Dragon Palace, arriving at the main hall.

  In the middle of the primary hall was a pill furnace, the surface of the furnace cover was carved with five golden dragons facing the pentagon corners of the furnace. In the ancient times, most masters would have their personal pill furnace for refining pills. Last time, Huwang Xiao also found a black tablet furnace in Eminent Holiness’s dwelling place.

  Huwang Xiao circled the golden dragon furnace, stopping at the other side where a jade cupboard was placed. On top of the cupboard, twelve jade bottles were neatly arranged. Each bottle was individually marked.

  Huwang Xiao’s eye strayed toward one of the bottles, exclaiming in amazed: “Sky Dragon Pill!” The name designated at the bottom of the container was actually Sky Dragon Tablet!

  According to legend, the Sky Dragon Pill was an unique divine grade pellet belonging to the Dragon Clan. Swallowing a Sky Dragon Pill cannot only enhance a person’s cultivation, it also enabled a person to possess the power of a Sky Dragon, increasing one’s physical power by leaps and bounds.
