Chapter 2066: Huang Xiaolong Entering Seclusion (1/2)
“Declared to the myriad words the extermination of nine familial relatives.” Huang Xiaolong harrumphed coldly and disdainfully, “Such arrogance.”
The little cow snickered. “The City of All-Heavens has always carried this kind of tone in their words and actions. They actually issued a public declaration this time. It seems only a few mavericks will dare to snatch the Darkness Gold Fruit, and Blood of Darkness from them. However, the City of All-Heavens has never done this in the past. Most likely, their public declaration this time is a warning to us.”
“From the news I’ve heard, Wan Yue’s son, Wan Zhuoyuan’s cultivation has already reached the pinnacle of peak late-Tenth Order Emperor Realm. Therefore, the City of All-Heavens is hellbent on getting the Darkness Gold Fruit because Wan Zhuoyuan wants to advance to the Sovereign Realm with it,” Reverence Moon Old Man said.
“So, this is the reason why the City of All-Heavens issued a declaration, putting their names on the Darkness Gold Fruit and Blood of Darkness!?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “So, it’s like that. In other words, that Wan Zhuoyuan is Wan Shi’s grandson?”
The Six Winged Green Mosquito Old Ancestor Du Hai nodded as he joined in the conversation, ”That's right, Wan Shi only has one son, Wan Yue, and Wan Yue only has Wan Zhuoyuan. Thus Wan Zhuoyuan is Wan Shi’s only grandson. Wan Zhuoyuan is an outstanding cultivation talent, and many City of All-Heavens’ experts see him as the next successor. If Wan Zhuoyuan gets the Darkness Gold Fruit and the City of All-Heavens’ resources, breaking through to the Sovereign Realm is a certainty.”
“That only makes me want to snatch the Darkness Gold Fruit even more.” Huang Xiaolong grinned.
However, the King of Grandmist looked solemn as he spoke, “The City of All-Heavens would deploy the majority of their experts. Even without Wan Shi present, there are Wan Yue, and the other two overlords, as well as the Old Monster Lun Zhuan, Old Crow Ancestor, Shi Ming, King of Shadows, and Buddhist Shi Zhen. That makes eight overlords!”
“At that time, even if our side has the Ancient Heavenly Court, they will suppress us.” The little cow went on a serious tone, “Unless Xiaolong breaks through to the Sovereign Realm before the Darkness Gold Fruit ripens!”
The King of Grandmist shook his head, “There are merely fifty years left until then. Even if Xiaolong is the most talented genius of our era, that is an impossible feat.”
The Reverence Moon Old Man, Cang Mutian, Du Hai, and the others shook their heads in despondence.
Huang Xiaolong and the King of Darkness exchanged a smiling glance.
The little cow, King of Grandmist, and Reverence Moon Old Man noticed Huang Xiaolong and the King of Darkness’s small gestures and looked at them with perplexed expressions. Just as they wanted to ask what was going on, soft white starlight glimmered from Huang Xiaolong’s palm as he summoned the Ancient Heavenly Court out of his body.
The Ancient Heavenly Court’s size had shrunken several hundred thousand times, resembling a small chain of starry stones lined up, emitting twinkling starlight like a beautiful piece of jewelry.
Huang Xiaolong opened the Heaven Vault Palace’s door in front of everyone’s confused gaze.
When the little cow, King of Grandmist, Reverence Moon Old Man, and the others saw what was inside the Heaven Vault Palace, each of them revealed shocked faces.
“Blossom of the Flame Dragon!”
“Sky Star Dao Fruit!”
“Peacock King Entwined Root!”
……
“Dual Fire and Ice Spirit Cloud!”
When everyone exclaimed the names of level-one and level-two origin treasures as they looked inside the Heaven Vault Palace, they finally understood why Huang Xiaolong and the King of Darkness were smiling earlier.
After seeing so many level-one and level-two origin treasures, even the overlord existences like them, were genuinely shocked and just as excited as the King of Darkness when he had first seen these origin treasures.
“Good brat. With so many level-one and level-two origin treasures, what’s there to worry about advancing to the Sovereign Realm!” The little cow guffawed in a jolly mood.
“With so many origin treasures, even a cow can break through to the Sovereign Realm!” Even the King of Grandmist was in the mood for a little joke.
However, just as the King of Grandmist finished, he was at the receiving end of the little cow’s fierce glare. Only then did he realize his blunder. He let out a dry, awkward haha, and apologized, “A mistake, mistake!”
Others erupted in laughter.
