Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1062 - 1060: Heart of the Dragon Emperor [Third Update]
Chapter 1062: Chapter 1060: Heart of the Dragon Emperor [Third Update]
"Have you heard? Nine Dragons Valley has been renamed North Sea Dragon Palace!"
"It’s more than just hearsay; I’ve received their invitation and am preparing to head to Nine Dragons Valley!"
"You really plan to go? I’ve heard that during this time in the Godfall Trench, the Dragon Emperor Tomb appeared and Nine Dragons Valley, Sky Alliance, and Giant Whale Alliance all suffered heavy losses. How can they promote themselves to North Sea Dragon Palace now?"
"Is it possible that they want to take advantage of the weakened state of the Sky Alliance and Giant Whale Alliance and forcibly become the Dragon Palace?"
"Idiot, their promotion to Dragon Palace should truly worry Beiming Palace, right?"
"Don’t guess anymore, I heard that Beiming Palace has already declared that there is enough with only Beiming Palace above the North Sea—there’s no need for a Dragon Palace..."
"This is going to be an interesting show to watch!"
Above the boundless North Sea.
Countless powerhouses are conversing with each other.
All discussions are centered around the North Sea Dragon Palace.
Above the North Sea, numerous powerhouses are also rushing towards the direction of Nine Dragons Valley. Of course, only a small portion are genuinely heading to attend the banquet or planning to join the North Sea Dragon Palace.
The vast majority are adopting a wait-and-see approach.
Naturally...
There are also powerful figures waiting to see a good show.
After all.
Beiming Palace, the first power above the boundless North Sea, has already declared that having Beiming Palace is enough for the North Sea.
Clearly, Beiming Palace will not sit idly by watching the establishment and rise of North Sea Dragon Palace.
This is surely a clash between the top two powers of the boundless North Sea.
It is bound to be a spectacular drama.
Meanwhile.
On the island where the Giant Whale Alliance is located, Shark Dominator looks at the invitation in his hand, snorts coldly, and crushes it: "North Sea Dragon Palace? Has Long Yi lost his mind? Daring to establish the North Sea Dragon Palace at this time, I want to see if your North Sea Dragon Palace can withstand the assault from Beiming Palace!"
"Shark Dominator!"
A commanding voice suddenly resounds in his mind.
Shark Dominator’s face changes drastically, recognizing the voice as that of the founder of the Giant Whale Alliance, the true being of their island, the massive Swallow Heaven Demon Whale.
In the presence of the Swallow Heaven Demon Whale, Shark Dominator dare not show the slightest disrespect and quickly stands up, responding: "Ancestor, do you have any instructions?"
The voice of the Swallow Heaven Demon Whale, calm yet touched with resignation and vicissitude: "My lifespan is near its end, and now our Giant Whale Alliance has lost two venerable masters. Additionally, there are undercurrents surging above the North Sea. I do not wish to see the fall of the Giant Whale Alliance, and wish to elevate you to the venerable position before my death!"
Hiss!
Shark Dominator gasps, his face turning crimson.
He is almost instinctively ready to agree.
Fortunately, he manages to restrain himself.
Taking a deep breath, Shark Dominator solemnly says, "Ancestor, you must not, you are our Giant Whale Alliance’s Calm Sea Divine Needle..."
"Calm Sea Divine Needle? It’s just an old relic now..."
The Swallow Heaven Demon Whale self-mockingly adds, then says, "Stop dilly-dallying. Come into this old ancestor’s mouth. This old ancestor will lend you a helping hand. As long as you can step into the Venerable Realm, not only can our Giant Whale Alliance last for eternity, but it can even stand toe-to-toe with Beiming Palace!"
The reason Beiming Palace has stood proudly above the boundless North Sea for countless ages, without any power challenging their position.
It is all because behind Beiming Palace stands a Kunpeng Ancestor!
That is an existence from the Venerable Realm.
If the Giant Whale Alliance can produce a Venerable, it would be completely equal to Beiming Palace.
Shark Dominator no longer hesitates, saying: "Ancestor, rest assured, Dominator will not let you down!"
Whoosh!
Shark Dominator immediately flies into the enormous mouth of the Swallow Heaven Demon Whale.
The Swallow Heaven Demon Whale expels a mountain-like giant crystallite, which is its demon core and the essence of the Swallow Heaven Demon Whale’s lifelong cultivation.
The voice of the Swallow Heaven Demon Whale echoes in Shark Dominator’s mind: "Refine it! Once you refine it, even if you cannot directly step into the Venerable Realm, at least it will propel you dozens of steps further on the path of sainthood!"
The path of sainthood, that is the path of the Dao. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Ten steps, that is the Peak of the Supreme Realm.
A hundred steps, and one could set foot in the realm of a Sacred Venerable.
Shark Dominator had already reached twenty-five steps in his current realm.
Seventy-five steps remained to reach the realm of Sacred Venerable.
As for the Heavenly Demon Whale...
He had already walked ninety steps on the path of the Great Dao. However, he suffered irreparable damage during a battle with the Kunpeng in his earlier years, with no hope of ever reaching the realm of Sacred Venerable. Now unable to withstand the injuries, his lifespan was nearing its end.
This was why, under dire necessity, he passed his life’s strength to Shark Dominator.
Just to preserve the Giant Whale Alliance.
"Shark Dominator, the Giant Whale Alliance is now entrusted to you..." the Heavenly Demon Whale slowly closed his eyes.
Shark Dominator’s eyes blazed with fervor, staring intently at the demon core in front of him, fists clenched: "Elder, rest assured, I will not disappoint you! As soon as I step into the realm of Sacred Venerable, not only will we preserve the Giant Whale Alliance, but the entire North Sea will be ours!"
The figure of Xiao Yi emerged in his mind.
With fists clenched tightly, producing loud cracking noises, he spoke coldly: "Xiao Yi? Hmph, once I break through to the realm of Sacred Venerable, the humiliations and grievances of the past will all be avenged!"
Whoosh!
Shark Dominator sat cross-legged in front of the demon core, starting to refine this demon core which aggregated the life’s knowledge of the Heavenly Demon Whale.
......
Formerly Nine Dragons Valley.
Now the North Sea Dragon Palace...
Within the expansive North Sea Dragon Palace, crystal palaces stood in magnificent rows, many times more luxurious than before.
These were all crafted using the numerous treasures obtained from the Dragon Emperor Tomb by Long Yi.
It was truly magnificent, like the legendary Dragon Palaces of lore.
Long Yi, Ning Delun, Qiu Yiyun, Hua Qianxiu, and others were busy preparing for a grand banquet in the Dragon Palace, amidst their busyness, they gathered and discussed: "After Lord Xiao returned from the Dragon Emperor Tomb and retreated for secluded training, how strong do you think he will be when he comes out?"
"Lord Xiao’s strength was previously on par with someone who has reached about thirty steps on the path of the Great Dao. With the treasures he obtained from the Dragon Emperor Tomb this time, he might be able to advance directly into the rank of forty steps!" Long Yi said gravely.
His eyes carried a tinge of envy.
Even with nearly ten thousand years of arduous cultivation, he had progressed only twenty-seven steps on the path of the Great Dao.
And yet, Xiao Yi, who had been cultivating for less than ten years, had become even more powerful than him.
This left him in awe and admiration.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They all admired Xiao Yi’s talent...
Qiu Yiyun remarked indifferently, "Lord Xiao’s achievements so far, besides his talent, are also largely due to his rigorous cultivation. Have any of you ever seen him slacking off in his training?"
"That is true!"
"There are no shortcuts on the path of martial arts, the rise of any powerful individual is not a matter of luck!"
Meanwhile.
Within that secret chamber.
Xiao Yi was astounded as he looked at what Little Lin had given him: "The Heart of the Dragon Emperor? Little Lin, are you really giving this to me?"
This was a precious treasure that Little Lin had acquired from the Dragon Emperor’s heritage but had not yet had time to refine, and now he was handing it over to Xiao Yi.
Little Lin grinned and said, "Big brother, we are brothers, you wouldn’t be formal with me, right?"
"You, you..."
Xiao Yi, unable to stop smiling, knew this was Little Lin’s way of making sure he wouldn’t refuse; naturally, they wouldn’t stand on ceremony with each other. Moreover, he indeed greatly needed the Heart of the Dragon Emperor, nodding, he said, "Alright, I won’t be courteous with you. I’ll take the Heart of the Dragon Emperor!"
"That’s more like it! The stronger you become, the better you can protect me!"
Little Lin chuckled, "Besides, I’m still waiting for you to bring Qingzhu back from Baiyu!"
"Don’t worry, we will bring her back soon!"
Xiao Yi smiled slightly, clasping the Heart of the Dragon Emperor tightly in his hand, "With this, even if I cannot ascend to the realm of Sacred Venerate, I should at least reach the ninety steps of the Great Dao. Then, even when facing a beginner in the realm of Sacred Venerable, I will have the strength to fight. Once I break through and the grand feast at the Dragon Palace ends, I will wipe out both the Giant Whale Alliance and the Sky Alliance..."
A chilling intent to kill swept across his eyes...
