Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 763 - 630: The Ordeal of Life and Death, the Ghost Emperor’s Tribulation
The white snake appeared in a flash, and Yan Jiu and Earth Venerate felt an overwhelming life force.
In the room, Feng Xun, who had been in a coma, began to rapidly heal his damaged body when Cauldron Breath manifested.
Time moved back to over half a month ago.
After Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun separated at the city gates, the carriage Feng Xun was riding in was quickly abandoned outside the city.
Half a day later, at the Southern Border of the mainland.
Waves after waves broke across the azure sea, whipping up white foam.
Wu Zhong stood suspended in the air, overlooking that vast and boundless sea territory, which also happened to be the widest sea area on the mainland, reaching depths of tens of thousands of meters into unknown territories.
The waters of the Jinan Sea were clear, resembling a finely crafted top-grade sapphire nestled at the southern edge of the mainland.
Most parts of the sea were light blue, except for a meandering narrow area that was deep blue in color.
The Ancient Divine Dragon’s dwelling, the Dragon Roaming Land, lay within that deep blue area.
This piece of deep blue water appeared serene and beautiful, but those who often frequented this area knew that beneath this peaceful beauty lay terrifying dangers.
The ocean is a domain second only to the skies, outside the realm of the Human Clan.
A large number of Sea Clan Spiritual Beasts lived here. The most abundant in the Jinan Sea were the Merfolk Tribe and the Shark Whale groups, but the real absolute dominators were the Ancient Divine Dragons of the Dragon Roaming Land.
Anyone foolish enough to disturb the peace of the Ancient Divine Dragons would, upon nearing the Jinan Sea, be attacked by numerous Sea Ancestors.
But Wu Zhong was an exception. As he neared the sea, the absolute pressure from his presence made the waves on the sea’s surface subside significantly.
Wu Zhong’s body rapidly descended, diving into the waters as if entering a realm devoid of others, and at the moment of penetration, a pale black Primordial Power surfaced around him. This layer of Primordial Power formed a protective shield that resembled a black pearl, allowing Wu Zhong to walk freely underwater.
The Primordial Power Shield descended to about ten thousand meters, where an ancient sea ridge appeared across the seafloor.
The ridge was grey-brown in color, resembling limestone, crisscrossed with gullies and covered with patches of luminescent moss. The ridge stretched for miles, seemingly possessing an ancient history of countless millennia, like a slumbering Sea Beast lurking on the ocean floor.
Upon seeing the ridge, Wu Zhong narrowed his eyes, which gleamed with a chillingly cold light, as he moved slowly on the seabed.
Suddenly, the sea ridge began to move, and a terrible roar echoed, lifting fierce waves on the calm sea.
The sea ridge raised its head, a pair of golden eyes as large as lanterns angrily fixed on Wu Zhong.
"Ignorant beings of the Human Clan, dare to trespass on the Dragon Roaming Land!" It turned out that this ancient sea ridge was none other than an Ancient Divine Dragon.
The Ancient Divine Dragon was the only surviving member of the Dragon Clan on the Qing Province Continent, its strength far surpassing that of ordinary Human Warriors and Alchemists.
Like all dragons, it was proud and cold-blooded. To it, all living creatures on the mainland were mere ants.
The man before it was at most twenty years old.
To the Human Warriors, twenty years was hardly enough time to have cultivated much, and the Divine Dragon did not consider Wu Zhong worth noticing.
The Divine Dragon could not even be bothered to raise an eyelid, it suddenly opened its maw, and a stream of golden Dragon Saliva turned into several sharp arrows.
Even under the sea, these golden arrows moved incredibly fast, forming long golden Water Arrows.
Yet Wu Zhong merely snorted coldly.
The Primordial Power around him suddenly expanded, creating a net-like Primordial Power Shield, which, like casting a fishing net, enveloped the Dragon Saliva, and with a twist of the peculiar net, the golden arrows disintegrated, turning into countless Golden Points that quickly vanished without a trace.
As soon as the golden arrows were struck down, eight Heavy Swords suddenly appeared in the water, and with a mere flick of Wu Zhong’s hand,
the eight Heavy Swords struck towards the Divine Dragon with a series of loud thuds.
The swordsmanship was exceedingly intricate, effectively sealing off several of the Divine Dragon’s blind spots. The Divine Dragon managed to dodge the seven strikes, but the final blow struck squarely on its back and belly.
Unexpectedly, this Human Clan warrior proved to be incredibly troublesome to the Divine Dragon, who had already reached the Divine Power Realm with its Divine Dragon Body and thus had no fear of ordinary Spiritual Artifacts of human origin.
Yet when Sword Qi grazed it, the Divine Dragon felt a blunt pain throughout its body.
That sword strike had actually sliced off several of its Dragon Scales, leaving a deep bloody gash on the Dragon Skin.
"Hold on!"
In the midst of pain, the Divine Dragon was greatly annoyed. It had not been injured for many years, and it realized that dealing with this young man was going to be difficult; its attitude softened considerably from before.
Having lived for ten thousand years, this Divine Dragon was no less than a cunning ancient beast. Knowing the power of its opponent, it naturally did not dare to confront him directly anymore.
"Are you from the Three Sects?"
In the eyes of the Ancient Divine Dragon, on the Qing Province Continent, only the Three Sects could possibly cultivate such young Human Warriors with such incredible talents.
The Ancient Divine Dragon feared neither the heavens nor the earth, but it did show some caution towards the Three Sects, the Super Major Sects which had stood for many years.
"I am Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong," Wu Zhong uttered.
Rising from the Underworld Yama Palace but a few years ago, and with the Ancient Divine Dragon having not surfaced from the depths of the sea in a long time, it naturally did not recognize the name Ghost Emperor.
If the man was not a disciple of the Three Sects, there was no need for caution. The Ancient Divine Dragon’s gigantic golden eyes rolled slightly, revealing a cunning glint.
"So you’re not from the Three Sects. Boy, what are you doing in Dragon Roaming Land?"
"Old creature, I need the blood of the Ancient Dragon."
Upon hearing that Wu Zhong sought its Dragon Blood, the Ancient Divine Dragon bore a ferocious look and, suddenly lifting its head, let out a Dragon Roar.
With that roar, the Ancient Divine Dragon soared into the sky.
As the Dragon Roar resounded, a wave-like burst of golden light erupted from within the Golden Dragon.
In an instant, Wu Zhong felt an increased heaviness in his body. The dark Primordial Power around him shattered, and his body, like a clay oxen into the sea, found it difficult to move.
This is—
Even Wu Zhong, a man accustomed to life and death, was somewhat shocked at this moment.
Is this the Dragon Realm?!
It was rumored that after breaking through to the Divine Power Realm, those with exceptional talent could comprehend their own "Domain."
This Ancient Divine Dragon had figured out the mystery of a Domain as well.
Within the Dragon Realm, every living thing was under the control of the Divine Dragon.
The formidable power of the Domain turned the eight Heavy Swords into several fragments, which floated amongst the sea water.
At this moment, Wu Zhong was as if stuck in a mire; his limbs could hardly move.
Snap—
The tail of the Ancient Divine Dragon, like a brisk whip, struck Wu Zhong’s spine with great force.
Unlike the encounter Wu Zhong had with the Phoenix Couple, the Fire Phoenix and the Ice Phoenix, in terms of age and cultivation, the Ancient Divine Dragon was far superior to the Phoenix Couple, who were still young Divine Beasts.
Moreover, with the Dragon Realm greatly diminishing Wu Zhong’s strength, it was imaginable that when its strike landed, Wu Zhong immediately felt his belly and spine churn; a trace of blood even emerged at the corner of his mouth.
"Foolish junior who knows not the heights of heaven and the depth of earth, with no sect’s support and yet daring to offend the majesty of the Divine Dragon."
The Ancient Divine Dragon was sly and shrewd; it originally worried about Wu Zhong being from the Three Sects and possibly having reinforcements. Now, with Wu Zhong alone, the Ancient Divine Dragon became brazen and fearless.
