Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 558 - 418: The strong eat dust, the stronger take it all (Extra 1/5)_2
In the Heart-questioning Realm, Hong Yuan laid the foundation for his rise. It was there that the Demonic Body Xuan Guangqiao made its first public appearance, marking an extraordinary achievement!
"Heh," Hong Yuan chuckled softly. Recalling the events he had experienced with Li Jianqiu, a smile slowly spread across his face as he thought, I wonder if Li Jianqiu still harbors that dream of establishing the Ground Demon Kingdom and becoming its empress.
This was his third encounter with the Red Dragon Carp! Times had changed. These Luck Tao Variant Seed Red Dragon Carp were still extremely precious, but to Hong Yuan, they were now just common little fish, mere trinkets for his amusement.
"SPLASH!"
Suddenly, a loud splash erupted from the lake, sending ripples cascading in all directions across the water's surface. It turned out that a greedy Red Dragon Carp had taken the bait on Hong Yuan's white jade fishing rod.
Seeing this, Liu Hongmei immediately focused, holding her breath, afraid that even breathing too loudly might disturb Hong Yuan.
Watching the white jade fishing rod tremble incessantly, a smile slowly spread across Hong Yuan's face. He gripped the rod firmly and gently began to lift it. The Red Dragon Carp thrashed even more violently, a powerful force transmitting through the line into Hong Yuan's hands, yet it failed to cause him the slightest trouble.
Hong Yuan's leisurely fishing stood in stark contrast to the fierce battles raging on the front lines. But this world was inherently cold. The strong left the weak in their dust, while the strongest devoured all!
「Two days later.」
Dawn broke, the first light of day piercing the darkness. The Sect Alliance had successfully crushed the Daxuan Dynasty and completely reclaimed the Wu Earth Sect. This was a symbolic milestone for the Sect Alliance, representing a solid and powerful step in their fight against the decaying Daxuan Dynasty—an achievement both epic and poignant.
At this very moment, Hong Yuan, who was quietly cultivating in a secret chamber at the rear base camp, suddenly felt a wave of profound comfort wash over him. The sensation was akin to distributing flyers all day in the scorching summer heat, then stepping into an air-conditioned room and savoring ice-cold watermelon—utterly invigorating. It was as if every pore on his body, from head to toe, was sighing in comfort!
After a moment, Hong Yuan's body trembled slightly. He slowly opened his eyes and rose from the Taoist Mat.
"Luck Tao Divine Power—Destiny Lamp High Illumination!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
The phantom of an ancient, unadorned green lamp coalesced before Hong Yuan, then solidified, floating above his head. The green lamp emitted a soft, glowing blue light, allowing Hong Yuan to observe the changes in his own Luck Tao. This was an incredibly potent Luck Tao Divine Power, for in the domain of Luck Tao, observing others is easy, but observing oneself is difficult!
In an instant, his vision began to shift, filled with fluctuating lines of various colors. Hong Yuan saw gray destiny, white destiny, azure destiny... Strands upon strands of the collective destiny of all living beings converged toward him, gathering upon his body to form a peculiar momentum of the Human Race. Upon closer observation, it had actually formed a vast, azure river!
The Human Race's momentum... Is this the cultivation resource that Lin Bu Jing and the others contend for so fiercely? Hong Yuan mused, his internal question already answered with certainty.
However, becoming a Saint was trivial to Hong Yuan. This gathered destiny, therefore, was not of much use to him. Gazing at this azure, river-like stream of destiny, Hong Yuan fell deep in thought.
...
...
The Purple Heaven: a mysterious, unfathomable, and perilous domain, fraught with danger. Here, even the weakest creatures were ferocious beings at the Desolate Beast level! An ordinary Saint venturing here would find only death. Only Great Saints and those of higher cultivation could hope to roam this place freely, exploring its various Secret Realms.
From a layer of multicolored clouds, the panicked cry of a Flood Dragon suddenly erupted.
"ROAR—"
A small Flood Dragon fled in disarray, frequently casting terrified glances behind it, as if some terrifyingly great evil pursued it. This small Flood Dragon appeared to be composed of white clouds; it was petite and quite peculiar in form. It was none other than the Dream Tao Desolate Beast—the Illusion Cloud Flood Dragon!
"Don't even think of escaping!"
A colossal hand, like white jade, blotted out the sky as it descended upon the Illusion Cloud Flood Dragon. The terrifying pressure instantly drained the color from the Flood Dragon's face, turning it ashen. It scrambled to use its Dream Tao Divine Power, desperately trying to escape the horrifying demonic grasp once more. This time, however, the prepared, sky-blotting hand snatched it in one swift motion, forcefully imprisoning it.
The sky-blotting hand and the Illusion Cloud Flood Dragon both shrank simultaneously. The former reverted to a normal human hand, while the latter transformed into a tiny white worm. The hand's owner was revealed to be a white-haired old man clad in a Heavenly Master Robe, exuding an air of transcendent, immortal grace. His name was Li Hongxin, also known as the Qinglu Great Saint, the most powerful figure in the Qinglu Taoist Temple.
As expected of a Dream Tao Desolate Beast; it took me three attempts to capture you! The Qinglu Great Saint thought. Gazing at the Illusion Cloud Flood Dragon curled into a ball in his palm, a smile touched his aged face. With you, the juniors will no longer need to worry about that West Dream Tiger.
With a tap of his foot, the Qinglu Great Saint shot off at great speed, heading towards the mortal realm. After an unknown period, he dispatched a sliver of his consciousness to ascend to the Treasured Yellow Heaven. It was there, from a message left by his friend, the Phoenix Creek Great Saint, that he learned a young man named Hong Yuan had already killed the West Dream Tiger. Furthermore, this Hong Yuan had led the Sect Alliance to reclaim lost territories and was even launching a counter-offensive against the Daxuan Dynasty.
"Hong Yuan, the one Phoenix Creek mentioned?! HAHAHA, the younger generation is truly formidable!" the Qinglu Great Saint laughed heartily. He instantly made up his mind. This Dream Tao Desolate Beast, the Illusion Cloud Flood Dragon, should be entrusted to a junior like Hong Yuan. Only then will its prestige not be diminished!
...
「The sun shone brightly in a cloudless sky.」
The Qinglu Great Saint's decision soon reached the Martial Saints of the Sect Alliance. Subsequently, the Martial Saint Heavenly Talents from the various Overlord Sects also learned of this development.
