Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 572 - 426: Better to Die than Not to be an Emperor!_3
...
...
On Earth, there has always been the saying, "Starting well does not mean ending well."
And such anecdotes, deeply regrettable to people, are most famously represented by the story of ’the disappointment of Zhong Yong’.
In the Martial World, though the story of ’the disappointment of Zhong Yong’ does not circulate, similar tales do.
For instance, Lin Bu Jing was once regarded as a young Heavenly Talent but grew up to be ineffectual and was even mocked by everyone in Maple Leaf City.
If Lin Bu Jing had not made a successful comeback later on and become the Phoenix Creek Tutelage, he probably would have been the butt of jokes for his entire life.
Therefore, momentary brilliance does not equate to true excellence.
For those with the Great Dream Seed, this was even more so the case.
Until the day a Great Dream Seed emerges to unify the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent, this battle is not considered over!
「Heaven Earth Secret Realm, Luopo Valley.」
Xiao Yuan bared his upper body, his robust muscles on display.
Facing the bone-chilling ghostly wind, he climbed upward step by step, tempering himself.
Luopo Valley was not only the legacy site of the Soul Killing Demon Emperor but also a Secret Realm between heaven and earth, endowed with supreme power and Creation.
Yet it also contained hidden dangers and crises, especially the bone-chilling cold wind!
Ordinary Martial Artists blown by this bone-chilling cold wind would immediately have their souls and spirits dispersed, leaving no trace. Even those at the Saint Level might not fare well here.
As such, for Xiao Yuan, tempering himself in Luopo Valley was not just cultivation; it was also enduring excruciating torment.
Pain.
So much pain.
My head hurts so much.
"Hmph." Xiao Yuan’s body suddenly stiffened. He let out a muffled grunt, his face contorting violently as waves of heart-piercing pain surged through him.
He desperately wanted to give up, but then he vividly recalled the unrivaled figure of Hua Menghuang from that day.
"Rather die than fail to become emperor!"
A low growl, like one from an abyss, escaped Xiao Yuan’s lips, his will steadfast and resolute.
Enduring the agony, Xiao Yuan continued to climb upward, refining his soul and exploring his Dream Tao Mystery.
While Xiao Yuan was undergoing hellish training, Shi Xiangmin, Tang Tianlong, Shang Yaoqin, and other Great Dream Seed holders were not idly passing their years.
On the contrary, they threw themselves onto the brink of life and death time and time again, solely to shine in the battle for Destiny.
Unanimously, Hua Menghuang became a thorn in the side of these Great Dream Seed holders, the rival they most wanted to eliminate.
The battle for Destiny to unify the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent could only have one Great Dream Seed laughing in the end!
...
Beyond this, the Martial Arts Heavenly Talents from the other Four Great Divine Continents who had yet to reach the Saint Level followed their elders’ orders and stepped into the quagmire of the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent.
They were to act as the vanguard for the Great Dream Seed their families, Sects, Taoist Temples, or Shrines had invested in.
And they showcased their talents, each remarkable, their capabilities not inferior to Lin Bu Jing’s. The more powerful among them even reached the level once achieved by the West Dream Tiger.
For a time, the Eastern Wilderness Divine Continent was thrown into chaos. The intensity of battles soared drastically!
Every day, group after group of Human Clan’s Martial Artists perished. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Yet, even so, the renown of Hong Yuan’s Water Tao Incarnation as the foremost commoner remained as solid as Mount Tai.
Because these opponents, one after another, fell at Hong Yuan’s hands!
Meanwhile, the Sect Alliance completely disintegrated amidst the ceaseless influx of Martial Arts Heavenly Talents. Hong Yuan returned to his Sect, accompanied by a group of disciples from the Mythical Sound Pavilion.
In the end, Yong State and Qing State, occupied by the Phoenix Creek Sect and Qinglu Taoist Temple respectively, became the last territories of the Sect Alliance, their situation most critical.
However, at this moment, Hong Yuan’s mind was instead more focused on his Demonic Body...
