Rong Xiao's face fell, and he said solemnly, "If you have the capabilities, bring my corpse away!"
Ji Canglan shrugged his shoulders and said with a faint smile, "Then I … will just have to bring Patriarch Rong Xiao's corpse away. Except, it's fine if you died, but could it be that you want all of your clansmen to be buried in death together with you?"
Rong Xiao's expression changed, and a look of struggle surfaced on his face.
But right then, a terrifying undulation suddenly came from high up in the sky!
Everyone lifted their heads in astonishment and looked towards the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask. Only to see a figure suddenly appear high up in the sky. That figure wielded a short stick in his hand and was currently speeding towards the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask with an incredible speed!
That figure was none other than precisely Ye Yuan!
The current Ye Yuan was bathed in blood all over, his entire body like he crawled out from a sea of blood.
But the dragon pressure on him already reached the peak at this time!
The expression on Ji Canglan's face had a change for the first time.
He looked at the Ye Yuan covered in wounds in shock, but it was already too late to want to stop Ye Yuan!
"Sacred Dragon Token! That is … the Sacred Dragon Token! The Sacred Dragon Token which disappeared for 100 thousand years is actually in Ji Qingyun's hands!"
Rong Xiao was incomparably shocked too, his eyes glued on the Sacred Dragon Token in Ye Yuan's hand!
Suddenly, Rong Xiao let out a roaring laugh and said, "Hahaha! Truly, heaven is protecting my White Tiger Clan! Ji Canglan, you used all sorts of intrigues and wiles, didn't think that in the end, you were still defeated at Ji Qingyun's hands, right?"
"I offer my blood as sacrifice to the heavenly dragon! Sacred Dragon Token, break for me!"
Ye Yuan gave a loud roar, and fresh blood immediately sprayed wildly! But his blood did not fade with the wind but poured frenziedly into the Sacred Dragon Token.
At the same time, the divine essence within Ye Yuan's body also poured crazily into the Sacred Dragon Token like it was free.
In virtually an instant, 25% of Ye Yuan's blood essence was drawn away!
"Roar!"
An enormous azure dragon broke free from inside the Sacred Dragon Token and charged over towards the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask.
Right at this time, the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask was not willing to show weakness either and immediately radiated with a brilliant splendor, and actually immediately gave up on capturing the white tiger spirit. It released a streak of ghostly light towards the azure dragon!
Rumble!
A blinding light was released up in the sky. A massive spatial rift appeared in the sky.
The pinnacle confrontation of two mighty divine artifacts fought until space virtually cracked apart.
The divine king powerhouses in the sky were also injured by this terrifying impact. All of them staggered back and dropped down from the sky.
"Roar …"
Without the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask's constraint, the spirit of the white tiger gave off earth-shaking roars.
Ye Yuan's figure also dropped down from the sky powerlessly.
The power of this attack already exhausted all of Ye Yuan's strength. Being drained of 25% of his blood essence in an instant, this was simply something that could take one's life.
This Sacred Dragon Token's method of usage, Ye Yuan learned of it from Long Teng there.
Without Deity Realm strength, one was simply unable to unleash the true power of the Sacred Dragon Token. Even having divine essence would not cut it either.
But the Sacred Dragon Token as the dragon race's most powerful divine artifact, one could use dragon race blood essence to drive it.
Ye Yuan did not sit and wait helplessly for death being imprisoned inside the Eight Extremes Sword Domain.
In that instant, Ji Canglan unleashed the Eight Extremes Sword Domain, Ye Yuan's late-stage spirit rank Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm was already launched!
Ye Yuan broke through to Tier 9 fleshy body. Coupled with the late-stage spirit rank Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm, the power was unimaginable. But this palm of his was not launched at Ji Canglan, but directly detonated on the spot!
The injuries on Ye Yuan's body were not caused by the Eight Extremes Sword Domain but caused by the Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm's explosion.
Detonating the Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm within an extremely small area, Ye Yuan was virtually committing suicide here. That power was sufficient to blast himself to death.
However, it was by relying on this explosion that Ye Yuan forcefully opened up an extremely small no-man's-land inside the Eight Extremes Sword Domain, a vacuum zone that did not belong to the Eight Extremes Sword Domain!
Withstanding this intense explosion, Ye Yuan directly merged into heaven and earth and reached high up in the sky with one teleport, and launched a heaven-shaking attack against the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask!
To be able to break apart the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask, there was only the similarly divine artifact, Sacred Dragon Token.
This move deceived everyone. Ye Yuan practically completed it in an instant. Everyone did not react to it, including Ji Canglan!
Talking about it was simple, but in-between this, as long as there was the slightest bit of error, not only would Ye Yuan be directly hacked into meat paste by the Eight Extremes Sword Domain, he would also be blown into minced meat by his own Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm.
From the start, Ye Yuan's objective was not Ji Canglan, but the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask!
Because he knew that his current strength could not kill Ji Canglan at all.
While Ji Canglan risked universal condemnation and wanted to eradicate the White Tiger Clan straight away and capture the white tiger spirit. There was definitely a heaven-shocking conspiracy.
Once they let him prevail, the outcome would be unimaginable.
And among the people present today, only one person had the ability to break the deadlock.
That was Ye Yuan himself!
Hence, he offered up his blood essence as the price without the slightest hesitation and activated the Sacred Dragon Token.
After one attack, the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask's aura became a great deal more lackl.u.s.ter all at once and was completely unable to capture the white tiger spirit anymore.
That white tiger spirit seemed to have been frightened too. After breaking free, he directly turned into a multi-colored stream of light and entered inside the totem territory, not coming out anymore.
Right at this time, an unexpected change suddenly occurred!
Ji Canglan's figure immediately vanished on the spot. The Eight Extremes Sword Domain also scattered and dispersed with a loud bang. Rong Xiao finally broke free.
However, Rong Xiao's expression changed drastically too. Because the direction Ji Canglan was going in was precisely Ye Yuan there!
A terrifying aura rushed towards Ye Yuan at a speed invisible to the n.a.k.e.d eye.
"Ji Qingyun!" Rong Xiao gave a loud cry, a look of hopelessness revealing on his face.
At this time, he was already too far away to help!
Chapter 1010 - Number One Beauty in the Divine Realm!
Ji Canglan's speed was extremely fast. In virtually a blink of an eye, he already arrived in front of Ye Yuan.
With Ji Canglan's strength, nobody among the people present could stop him at all.
Currently, Ye Yuan already fell unconscious and was totally unaware that he was so close to death.
Of course, even if he was aware, suffering such severe injuries, it was also not possible to make any counterattacks.
"Ji Canglan, if you dare to kill Ji Qingyun, my White Tiger Clan will not stop until your death!" Rong Xiao roared.
However, Ji Canglan did not delay at all. A sword already arrived in front of Ye Yuan!
Yet, right at this critical moment, boundless snowflakes that filled the sky suddenly appeared in the sky! Virtually in an instant, the entire world became a vast expanse of whiteness.
At this moment, it was as if the whole world froze.
A fierce wind swept up waves of snowflakes, attempting to stop Ji Canglan's advancement.
It was very strange, those delicate snowflakes actually made Ji Canglan's speed fall sharply. In the end, he was actually unable to advance an inch forward anymore.
A lithe and graceful figure appeared in the wind and snow. Only to see her beckon with a hand. Countless flurries of snow formed an ice bed below Ye Yuan's body, letting Ye Yuan land slowly.
This woman was exceedingly cold and gorgeous as if she was an ice mountain. But her unparalleled looks virtually made all women turn colorless!
"Ji Canglan, I won't let you kill him a second time!" The woman's words were nonchalant but revealed determination.
Ji Canglan put away his sword and stood there, but thought nothing of this cold and beautiful to the extreme woman in front of him.
"Since Lingxue came forward, I'll let him off today. However, you have to watch Little Junior Brother closely. Next time, he won't be so lucky!"
"Next time, he'll definitely kill you!" Spirit Snow Divine King said coldly.
This woman was actually the one known as the number one beauty in the Divine Realm, Spirit Snow Divine King, Mu Lingxue! Her sudden appearance finally resolved Ye Yuan's predicament.
Ji Canglan smiled but declined to comment. His figure moved and vanished from sight.
The moment Ji Canglan left, the Medicine King Hall's other experts also left one after another.
The White Tiger Clan suffered heavy casualties. At this point, they were completely powerless to stop the departure of the Medicine King Hall's experts.
Spirit Snow Divine King looked at the Ye Yuan lying on the ground. A hint of tenderness flickered across her gaze.
The Divine Realm's number one beauty, Spirit Snow Divine King, probably only when facing him, would she revealed this hint of tenderness, right?
"I chased after Ji Canglan until here, didn't expect that I actually ran into you! Since you came back to the Divine Realm, why didn't you come and look for me?"
Spirit Snow Divine King muttered to herself, but two clear rows of tears flowed down from her eyes.
...
After the great battle, the White Tiger Clan was in a state of ruin. The losses were immense.
When Ye Yuan woke up, it was already ten days later.
The current Ye Yuan was incomparably frail. It was as if his entire person was drained dry.
He heard from Li-er about the matters after he fell unconscious. Ye Yuan never would have dreamed that he was actually saved by Mu Lingxue in the end.
After Ji Canglan left, Mu Lingxue also left immediately.
"Lingxue still hates me!" Ye Yuan said with a bitter smile.
"The Spirit Snow Divine King she … should still be in love with Big Brother Yuan, right? Otherwise, how could she possibly take action to rescue you? Furthermore, the timing she showed up was so coincidental. Most likely, she has constantly been paying attention to Ji Canglan's movements too. This indicates that she might have been thinking of avenging you all along!" Li-er hesitated for a bit but still said it in the end.
Towards the Spirit Snow Divine King, Li-er's feelings were very complicated too.
But she would not become jealous like the average girl. On the contrary, she even harbored some remorse towards the Spirit Snow Divine King.
On that day, Ye Yuan locked Li-er and White Light inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda and did not give them the chance to come out at all. They were very anxious inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda but completely could not do anything.
Hearing Li-er's words, Ye Yuan also did not know what he should say.
Previous life, Ji Qingyun looked down upon the Divine Realm, his status was incomparably revered. Only romance this word, he left behind this regret.
Reviving, Ye Yuan got together with Li-er at the behest of supernatural powers. This could not be said to not be destiny making a fool of men.
When Ye Yuan came back to his senses, he noticed that Li-er's expression was rather odd, and asked, "Li-er, if there's anything you want to say, just say it. Between you and I, do we still need to make distinctions?"
Li-er suddenly lowered her head and used a mosquito-like voice to say softly, "Big Brother Yuan, actually … Li-er doesn't mind."
Ye Yuan froze, and laughed in spite of himself and said, "You lass, what are you saying? It's still more of a debt towards Lingxue. Sigh, this favor, it will probably be hard to pay off for a lifetime!"
Li-er was delighted in her heart. But had an additional trace of loss.
Ye Yuan valued relationsh.i.p.s the most. He himself already said that Spirit Snow Divine King's favor could not be repaid for life.
How could this entanglement be that easy to sort out?
The hardest to pay off in this world was a debt of love.
Furthermore, Ye Yuan's feelings towards Mu Lingxue, most likely even he himself was unable to say clearly, right?
"Big Brother, you finally woke up!" Right then, White Light's voice suddenly sounded out, interrupting the two people's thoughts.
Ye Yuan looked over and saw White Light left Head Elder Rong Kun over.
When Rong Kun saw Ye Yuan, he also cupped his fists and said, "Younger Brother Ji finally woke up. If Younger Brother had a mishap, my White Tiger Clan would really have wronged Your Excellency."
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Head Elder, it is best to call me Ye Yuan. Ji Qingyun is already a bygone."
Rong Kun was startled in his heart but still said, "Huhu, Younger Brother Ye lost too much blood essence in order to unleash the Sacred Dragon Token this time. The clan has already prepared many blood essence recovering spirit medicines for Younger Brother. This time, this old man brought it over at the same time."
Ye Yuan clasped his hands and said, "Then Ye Yuan will accept it respectfully. Thank you very much, Head Elder."
"What's Younger Brother Ye talking about. This time, if not for you, our White Tiger Clan would have already utterly disappeared from the Divine Realm. Want to thank, it also has to be this old man who says it to you." Rong Kun waved his hand and said.
Talking about this, Ye Yuan's expression darkened as well and said, "Ji Canglan locked on the target on the White Tiger Clan this time. What he's plotting is most likely not small. Furthermore, according to what I know, there isn't the Heaven Imprisoning Spirit Locking Flask, this grade of divine artifact, in the Medicine King Hall at all. I feel that there's likely someone currently brewing a tremendous conspiracy in the Divine Realm!"
Rong Kun also nodded when he heard that and said, "What Patriarch Rong Xiao is worried about is also this! Ji Canglan knows about my White Tiger Clan like the palm of his own hand. Even an existence on the level of the white tiger spirit, he's also aware. The operation this time, he has likely prepared for a long time already. Patriarch already informed the other three clan patriarchs of the four symbols family clans to let them be more careful. My White Tiger Clan having traitors, it's hard to ensure that the other three clans don't have traitors."
Ye Yuan nodded his head and could not help falling silent.
At present, the Divine Realm was endlessly turbulent. That enormous hand at the back seemed to have already gradually revealed its fangs.
The Medicine King Hall openly making a move against the White Tiger Clan this time, regardless of success or failure, it would shock the entire Divine Realm.
Existences on the level of super holy lands always stayed low and restrained. It was already uncertain how many years it had been since such a large-scale divine king battle had been instigated before.
Through this incident, the Medicine King Hall's ambition was also laid completely
bare!
Chapter 1011 - Sacred Dragon Token's Master
Chatting idly for a couple more sentences, Rong Kun actually became somewhat evasive when talking.
Ye Yuan knew that he definitely had some words too hard to speak up. Hence, he said, "Whatever words Head Elder has, just be straight with it."
Rong Kun appeared slightly embarrassed as he said, "Haha, Younger Brother Ye, the incident this time was stirred up so big, many things can't be concealed anymore either. It's fine that you're bearing the dragon race's bloodline, it's just that this Sacred Dragon Token …"
The moment Ye Yuan heard, he understood, and opened his mouth to ask, "Someone came from the dragon clan?"
Rong Kun nodded his head and said, "The Azure Dragon Clan's Head Elder, Long Zaitian, personally brought people and came over. But Patriarch Rong Xiao blocked them first with Younger Brother Ye's body not being recovered as the reason. It's just that this Sacred Dragon Token is of utmost importance, they likely won't be willing to leave the matter at that."
The dragon clan's supreme divine artifact, Sacred Dragon Token, was lost for over 100 thousand years. Now that it re-appeared in the Divine Realm, it was impossible for the dragon clan to not have any indication at all.
Such a treasure being left behind outside was a joke to the dragon clan in the first place.
Now that they knew that the Sacred Dragon Token was in Ye Yuan's hands, they would think of ways to get it back no matter what.
Currently, there was the White Tiger Clan blocking. The dragon clan might still say a couple of nice words. If Ye Yuan was not willing to hand it over, they would definitely resort to martial strength in the end too.
Ye Yuan thought about it and said, "Looks like this trip to the dragon clan is a must. Forget it, make a trip then. It's also time for Senior Long Teng and the dragon clan's grudge to be resolved."
Although Long Teng had never talked with him about his history before, Ye Yuan was also more or less able to guess a little.
Even though as long as 50 thousand years had passed, some knots of the heart, Long Teng likely still could not put it down.
