Chapter 305.1 (1/2)
The Chaos in the Star Sea (7)
Along the journey to the south, Qing Xuan had divulged every secret about the ancestor blood after a series of interrogation and torture. He did not dare to conceal any bit of information.
Beneath the Dragon Burial Ocean City was where an ancient dragon’s skeletons were buried. The dragon’s bones were already weathered by wind, completely diminishing their usefulness. However, the marrows within its bones contained two drops of ancestor blood!
Beyond all doubt, that dragon must be one of the personages at the same level as an old ancestor of the dragon race when it was still alive.
It was because of these two drops of ancestor blood that Zang Long1, who was also known as Revered Dragon, was able to gain such tremendous power and enabled him to fight the old bear when he was still just at the Peak Divine Transformation Realm.
Today, Zang Long was hiding somewhere in the city, going through his secluded meditation to refine the ancestor blood and break through to the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm.
Qing Xuan was the only person who knew the exact location where he had gone into seclusion. It was not at any of the places in the city. In fact, he was residing inside an Immortal Abode’s Treasure!
Without Qing Xuan as the guide, it would certainly be difficult for Ning Fan to discover where Zang Long was hiding on his own!
That was also one of the reasons why Ning Fan did not immediately end Qing Xuan’s life. To him, the man still was useful to him.
Ancestor blood was something that could not be seized or robbed from others. Other than the inheritance from one’s ancestor, it could only be obtained through diligent self-cultivation. These two drops of ancestor blood, however, were an exception among exceptions. Perhaps it was because of the power of the Celestial Emperor which shaped this Star Sea or the abnormal landscape around the Ocean City that allowed them to be passed down.
Ning Fan was the possessor of the Fu Li Demon Bloodline. Although the two drops of ancestor blood could not directly enhance the strength of his demon bloodline, they could bring quite a few benefits to him.
Besides, even if there was not the existence of the ancestor blood, Ning Fan would also destroy this Dragon Burial Ocean City anyway. The sole reason for that was because the Dragon Burial Ocean City had taken action against him!
When one is pursued and hunted, one shall return the favor with complete retaliation. The best way to do it is undeniably eliminating those powerful forces like Dragon Burial Ocean City, making the other minor forces know their places. In that manner, none of them would be audacious enough to find trouble with me.
The slaughter has already begun. Be it a single person or ten thousand people, all of them shall die. Since I’ve destroyed thousands of troops belonging to Zang Long and captured Qing Xuan, there is certainly no turning back between me and the Dragon Burial Ocean City.
“How many experts are there in the Dragon Burial Ocean City?!”
“Other than the city lord being a Peak Divine Transformation Realm expert, there are still three elders at the Late Divine Transformation Realm. I’m the trusted follower of city lord. Therefore, I was appointed to become the vice city lord. Apart from that, there are seven Mid Divine Transformation Realm experts whose power is on par with mine. As for Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivators, there are fifteen of them with four being the newly-captured captives…”
“Captives?”
“Mm. I suppose you must have noticed this: there have been lots of outsiders intruding the Star Sea recently. However, no one knew what’s the cause of it… The four of them were all captured by the city lord when they broke into our Dragon Burial Ocean City by accident. They were then planted with demon seals and kept in the city, taking up positions as guards in the city.”
Facing Ning Fan’s question, Qing Xuan did not have the guts to conceal any information. With only his head, he displayed a secret technique to reconstruct his demon body of star spirit. Sadly, his cultivation level regressed to the Early Divine Transformation Realm.
After all, it was something that could not be helped. Being able to keep his life safe from Ning Fan’s hands was already considered fortunate. It was just unavoidable to experience a decline in his cultivation level to recover himself.
At this moment, Qing Xuan finally understood how terrifying the white-robed young man standing in front of him truly was.
Unfortunately, that realization was a little too late and agonizing.
As the vice city lord of the Dragon Burial Ocean City, Qing Xuan had no other choice but to betray his city in order to save his own life.
After everything had quieted down, Qing Xuan had another more depressing finding: Ning Fan might be powerful, but he showed no signs of camouflaging his cultivation level. Apparently, he was truly just an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator.
“This person might be strong and is able to kill me as easily as pinching an ant to death, but his cultivation level is just at the Early Divine Transformation Realm. I wonder if he could win against the city lord… Since I’ve been planted with a demon seal by him, if he dies, I will die too. Hai… The city lord was already capable of receiving ten palms from the old bear. Today, I guess his power must have greatly increase again… If this person is defeated by the city lord, what should I do…”
*Sigh*
Qing Xuan heaved a deep sigh. When he lowered his head and noticed the Golden Flame Chariot beneath his feet, his facial expression immediately burnt with passion.
This chariot is really fast! Its speed has already attained the level of a Void Refinement Realm expert!
This Lu Bei truly deserves to be the ferocious man who could escape from Kun Mo’s pursuit with such speed. Since Kun Mo was unable to catch up with him, I believe the city lord would not be able to as well. Perhaps he might not be an opponent to the city lord, but it would not be an issue for him to run away.
