Chapter 747 Articles of the Ancestral Dragon (1/2)
“Hunyuan Heaven?”
Zhou Yuan was taken aback by these words. He soon nodded and said, “I’ve heard that Hunyuan Heaven is the most populated and strongest land in Tianyuan World if we exclude the sacred race.”
Yaoyao had told him that Tianyuan World consisted of nine heavens. The sacred race occupied four heavens, while the numerous other living creatures were separated into the remaining five heavens. Hunyuan Heaven was something like the core of these five heavens.
It was precisely because of Hunyuan Heaven’s existence that the innumerable living beings of Tianyuan World were not enslaved by the sacred race. Hunyuan Heaven was considered the stronghold of the resistance against the sacred race.
“Do you know how powerful Hunyuan Heaven is?” asked Cang Yuan with a grin.
Zhou Yuan immediately shook his head. He did not know much about Hunyuan Heaven, but he was aware that Su Youwei and Wu Yao had gone there.
As for how strong Hunyuan Heaven was, it was not something a tiny Divine Dwelling stage pract.i.tioner like him would be privy to.
Cang Yuan’s gnarled hand reached towards the bonfire. He nonchalantly barbequed a stick of meat as he smiled faintly and said, “Hunyuan Heaven is extremely vast, far exceeding Cangxuan Heaven. Hunyuan Heaven is more or less divided into nine domains.
“Every domain is overseen by a domain master.
“And these domain masters are all Saints.”
These few sentences made Zhou Yuan gasp. Astonishment filled his face as he stammered, “Isn’t that...nine...nine Saints?!”
Zhou Yuan did not know exactly how powerful a Saint was, but he understood that even Sheng Yuan was merely at the false Saint stage.
The false Saint stage was already considered an invincible existence in Cangxuan Heaven. If not for Cang Yuan’s appearance towards the end, no one would have been able to stop Sheng Yuan.
But Cang Yuan was now telling him that there were nine Saints in Hunyuan Heaven!
What kind of concept was this?
If any one of these nine saints came to Cangxuan Heaven, it would be enough to subdue the Sacred Palace, the Cangxuan Sect and the other overlord sects. The Saint could easily sweep away any opposition and become the heaven master!
No wonder Hunyuan Heaven was the frontline of the resistance against the sacred race. Such power was indeed extremely terrifying.
Cang Yuan smiled and nodded as he gazed at the shock on Zhou Yuan’s face. “The nine domain masters are the ultimate rulers of Hunyuan Heaven, governing over countless lands and subjects…
“Amongst these nine domains is one known as the Tianyuan Region, which I myself had created.”
Zhou Yuan was stunned once more as he stared at the nonchalant-looking Cang Yuan. There was no pride or hint of showing off on the latter’s face, as if Cang Yuan was merely stating the most ordinary of facts.
But Zhou Yuan was no fool. He could sense what these simple words represented.
That was the highest authority and power in Hunyuan Heaven.
According to Zhou Yuan’s estimates, even patriarch Cang Xuan’s heaven master position may not match up to Cang Yuan’s domain master status...
He never imagined that his freebie-master would be one of the nine supreme sovereigns of Hunyuan Heaven...
It was a long time later before Zhou Yuan finally returned to his senses. With a face colored in amazement, he asked, “Does this have anything to do with getting Yaoyao to awaken?”
Although he was shocked by Cang Yuan’s ident.i.ty, the most important thing to Zhou Yuan now was still Yaoyao’s awakening.
Cang Yuan chuckled and said, “Yaoyao is different from everyone else. Hence, she needs something different to restore her body.”
Zhou Yuan hurriedly asked, “Something different?”
Cang Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a solemn look emerging within them. He slowly answered, “The Ancestral Dragon Lantern and the Ancestral Dragon Flesh.”
Zhou Yuan was taken aback. He repeated, “Ancestral Dragon Lantern and Ancestral Dragon Flesh?”
Cang Yuan slowly said, “In the beginning, the first creature born from the primordial chaos was known as the Ancestral Dragon. The Ancestral Dragon body subsequently transformed into all living things, giving birth to the numerous lifeforms of Tianyuan World.”
Zhou Yuan’s face turned a little rigid, and he asked, “Is...isn’t that a legend?”
He had heard similar tales several times with all kinds of varying versions. However, he had never taken them seriously and had merely thought of them as stories.
