I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 761 I'll go to the Chijiang Dragon Palace and then come back

"You don't need to worry. Your Uncle Xiao and Cang Yu are both Golden Immortals. Cang Yu is also skilled in speed. Even if they encounter danger, they can quickly escape far away," Yue Huang comforted him.

"Yes, I hope my uncles are both lucky." Xia Daoming nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.

"By the way, tell me about your situation..." Yue Huang smiled, then suddenly widened his eyes: "You, you have already entered the Opening Realm!"

"To be precise, he's at the late stage of the Opening Realm. He should be able to enter the True Transformation Realm soon," Xia Daoming said.

"True Realm! It's said that Cang Hong, the Dragon King of the Vast Abyss Sea, is at the True Realm! Doesn't that mean that Senior Brother Headmaster will soon have the power to fight that old thief Cang Hong?" Tong Li asked with a look of surprise.

"That's for sure. Your senior brother's combat strength cannot be measured by ordinary Golden Immortal realm. Even though the Dragon King of the Vast Abyss Sea is a well-known Golden Immortal of the True Transformation Realm, and it is even rumored that he has broken through to the late stage of the True Transformation Realm, as long as your senior brother steps into the True Transformation Realm, he will definitely be able to suppress him!" Yue Huang stroked his beard and said with a happy and confident expression.

Xia Daoming smiled noncommittally and then said, "Cang Hong has been occupying the nest for many years. It's about time that we give up the Hanyuan Sea and return it to the descendants of Senior Cang Yuan."

However, the Hanyuan Sea is one of the nine inland seas of the Desolate Immortal Realm. Its vastness is comparable to several immortal states. Hundreds of millions of sea creature cultivators and immortals live in the sea, including many powerful forces. Even if Cang Hong and his direct subordinates are killed, with Cang Ze and Xiao Bei's current strength, they still cannot deter and control the Hanyuan Sea. Instead, it will plunge the Hanyuan Sea into chaos.

Therefore, I've considered that it's best to allow Cang Hong to be smug for a while, until Cang Ze and Xiao Bei have truly grown up. Then, they can personally raise an army to destroy Cang Hong, take over the Dragon Palace, and rule the Han Yuan Sea. This matter, in a way, will also be a valuable learning experience for them.”

Upon hearing Xia Daoming's words, Yue Huang and the other two were all greatly shocked, their faces filled with astonishment.

They thought that it was already very impressive that someone who had just entered the True Realm could overpower a Dragon King who was in the late stage of the True Realm.

As it turned out, Xia Daoming's words meant that killing Cang Hong was not difficult for him now. He was just worried that after killing Cang Hong, the vast Hanyuan Sea would be in chaos, with no one to control and govern it. He also wanted to entrust this heavy responsibility to Cang Ze and Xiao Bei, which was why he was unwilling to kill him now.

It took Yue Huang and the other two a long time to process this shocking news.

"It seems I haven't learned my lesson and still habitually underestimate you!" Yue Huang sighed.

Xia Daoming smiled, then seemed to remember something, his expression darkening slightly as he said, "Just now, from a distance, I sensed that you, my senior uncles, were plotting murder. Why is that?"

"Speaking of which, you've come at just the right time!" Upon hearing this, Yue Huang momentarily forgot to inquire about Xia Daoming's experiences over the years, and instead raised his eyebrows, his face beaming with joy.

Next, Yue Huang recounted how Cang Hong's son, Cang Xun, took office as the Dragon King of Chijiang, and how he forced Xingyi to become his Daoist partner.

"This Cang Xun is quite insightful. He knows that Xing Yi has the powerful bloodline of the Sea Dragon King. If he could become her Daoist partner, he would have a great chance to break through the threshold and enter the Opening Realm! Unfortunately, he miscalculated."

"It's just right that I shouldn't kill Cang Hong right now, but killing this ignorant dragon prince and letting him feel the pain of losing a son is still acceptable." Xia Daoming said calmly, as if killing a sea dragon at the peak of the late stage of the Condensation Realm was just a matter of lifting a finger for him.

“Cang Xun is powerful and can mobilize the power of the Chi River. Killing him would likely cause quite a stir and would inevitably alert Immortal Lord Yu Chao, who is stationed in the city. Shouldn’t we reconsider this matter and perhaps send Xiao Bei to assist us?” Yue Huang hesitated for a moment before offering his advice.

"It's alright. He's just a mere late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Killing him wouldn't cause much of a stir!" Xia Daoming said with a faint smile.

As he spoke, Xia Daoming stood up and said, "Uncle-Master, you three please wait here for a moment. I'll go to the Chijiang Dragon Palace and be right back!"

Before the three could react, Xia Daoming had already vanished from the main hall in a streak of crimson light.

Chijiang Dragon Palace, Crystal Palace
The Chijiang Dragon Palace is hidden deep beneath the bottom of a bottomless abyss.

The Crystal Palace is entirely made of ancient cold crystal and deep-sea dragon jade. Crystal pillars like ice bells hang from the ceiling, and the shimmering water makes the entire palace look like a bright moon submerged in the water.

Outside the palace, the river flowed mightily, yet it was kept out by an invisible barrier. Inside the palace, songs and dances filled the air, and celestial music drifted through the air.

Cang Xun sat high on the Dragon King's throne.

Beneath the throne, steam surged, faintly transforming into the shadowy form of a dragon coiling around.

On the left and right sides, a golden immortal sits.

One of them was clad in dragon scale armor, exuding a sharp aura. He was a descendant of Cang Xun's clan, at the early stage of the Dao Condensation Realm.
One of them was a burly man with powerful blood and fierce eyes; he was a Golden Immortal in the mid-stage of the Tiger-Dragon Clan.

All of them were Cang Xun's direct subordinate generals. On the surface, Cang Xun was sent by his father to oversee the Chi River, but in reality, he was investigating the murder of three dragon kings, including Cang Hao, and a Golden Immortal Dragon Clan elder, as well as searching for the whereabouts of Cang Ze and others.

Therefore, when Cang Xun took office as the governor of Chijiang, he brought his two capable lieutenants with him.

Originally, Cang Xun thought this would be a difficult task, but unexpectedly, when he visited Dongche Zhenjun in the state city a few years ago, he met Xingyi and discovered that she actually possessed an extremely powerful Sea Dragon King bloodline. This made Cang Xun feel like he had found a treasure, and he immediately inquired about Xingyi's background and origins from Dongche Zhenjun in private.

Xingyi is a registered celestial official in the Heavenly Court, so her background is naturally clear and simple.

A cultivator who ascended from the lower realm!

He has no background in Heaven.

Upon hearing this news, Cang Xun was overjoyed and his heart was filled with happiness.

Even if she were a Golden Immortal or a True Lord of the Heavenly Court, a cultivator who had ascended from the lower realm, would be easy to control with his status as the direct descendant of the Dragon King of the Vast Abyss Sea and his cultivation as a late-stage Golden Immortal of the Condensation Realm. She had no choice but to comply.

Most importantly, this mere cultivator who ascended from the lower realm has managed to reach the Golden Immortal realm in less than ten thousand years. Even if she had some fortuitous opportunities, her Sea Dragon King bloodline must be far more powerful than it appears on the surface.

For Cang Xun, who had been struggling in the late stage of Dao Condensation for tens of thousands of years without being able to break through, this was an absolute godsend, not to be missed.

“Grandmaster Gao, since True Monarch Xingyi isn’t going anywhere, why don’t we just go and capture her and bring her to the Dragon Palace? Once you and she have consummated your marriage and you reach the Opening Realm, she’ll obediently submit to you!” said the Golden Immortal of the Dragon Clan.

"That's right, she's just a mere mid-stage Nascent Soul Golden Immortal. It's her good fortune that the Crown Prince has taken a liking to her. How can we allow her to be so presumptuous!" Tiger Flood Dragon Golden Immortal said arrogantly.

"After all, he is a Heavenly Court True Lord, so we still have to give Yuchao Immortal Lord some face. We can't force him. If all else fails, we can only ask my father to step in. At that time, Xingyi will have no choice but to comply!" Cang Xun said.

"Dare to lay a finger on my disciple? Don't even mention your father, even if you bring the entire Hanyuan Sea Dragon Palace to your aid, you'll still be doomed!" As soon as Cang Xun finished speaking, a majestic and chilling voice rang out in the hall.

The words fell.

The singing and dancing inside the hall suddenly stopped.

The shimmering water inside the Crystal Palace seemed to be held down by an invisible hand, suddenly coming to a halt.

"Who dares to trespass into my Chijiang Dragon Palace!"

Cang Xun's expression changed drastically, and he abruptly stood up.

boom!
Behind his head, a vast, illusory sea suddenly unfolded, with surging waves and the shadow of a dragon appearing and disappearing.

Almost simultaneously, the two Golden Immortals also stood up, and their respective Dao illusory images manifested.

The combined power of the three golden immortals should have caused rivers to surge backward and thunder to explode.

but--

Outside the Crystal Palace, the river remained calm.

Inside the hall, however, it seemed as if it were sealed off by an invisible giant hand.

The three violent auras had just been released when they were forcefully pushed back into the hall, as if they had crashed into an invisible barrier between heaven and earth.

　That concludes today's update.
