The liver is a late bloomer!

"The strength of a powerful being on the Great Dao depends on how many Great Daos they control, and also on how many branches of those Great Daos they control."

"Therefore, over the long course of time, the powerful beings on the Great Dao have either laid out plans, provided enlightenment, or separated a wisp of Dao Source to enrich these Great Daos."

"Once I advance to the Invincible Saint Venerable realm, I will absorb this clone that I have been enlightened to enrich the Great Dao that I control."

"When you encounter an extremely powerful and extraordinary cultivator in a new sea area, it's roughly equivalent to having the combat power of a great immortal who doesn't know any magic."

"Then you should be careful, there is a high possibility that he has connections to powerful figures on the Great Dao." The divine clone said leisurely.

"So that's how it is. No wonder that prodigy from the Heavenly Guardian Clan I met back then was so strong, he could almost fight me to a draw." Xu Chen said with sudden realization.

"In that case, it's very likely that your existence has already been made known to the powerful figures on the Great Dao in your area. Under normal circumstances, that person will no longer provoke you."

A giant whale leaps out of the distant sea. This whale is a creature reflected in the ordinary world. Although it is ordinary, it reveals a strange beauty.

"Big brother, given the karma I bear, will ordinary powerful figures be afraid to touch me if they can see through it?" Xu Chen suddenly asked.

"You're overthinking it. This mark on you is just to prevent the powerful beings on the Great Dao from harming you."

“If there is no intervention from a master of the Great Dao, and you are killed by a master below the Great Dao, then you are killed, and it will not cause any consequences,” the divine clone said.

"Okay, thanks for clearing up my doubts."

"Also, could you let me experience the power of a Great Immortal's speech technique at the Great Luo Realm?" Xu Chen asked, rubbing his hands together with anticipation.

"As you wish." The supernatural clone smiled slightly.

Then, as if out of control, Xu Chen conjured a Great Sun Divine Fire Sword in his hand and severed his own head with a single strike.

Xu Chen's will was revived from the Holy White Space.

“This is too…”

Throughout the entire process of Xu Chen being controlled and having his own head severed, he could not sense any power of the Great Dao Laws.

"Forget it, forcing a breakthrough is impossible. We can only slowly collect the Great Dao Divine Powers."

After listening to the explanation given by the Great Immortal's avatar, Xu Chen understood why the avatar had allowed him to learn a hundred Great Dao abilities before letting him pass through. It turned out that it was to enrich the Great Dao of the area he controlled.

Upon emerging from seclusion, Xu Chen immediately sent a message to Grand Venerable Qingzhu, asking him to assign him a mission to slay a Grand Venerable of an alien race.

As soon as the message was sent, a ray of light condensed in front of Xu Chen and transformed into the appearance of the Azure Bamboo Venerable.

“Although I believe in your strength, you haven’t been at the Great Luo Realm for very long. Would you like to cultivate some more?” said Grand Venerable Qingzhu.

"No need, just assign me a task, a one-on-one one, don't make me deal with several at once," Xu Chen said.

"In that case, there really is a task."

“Deep within the Star Sea Domain, a Dragon Clan Grand Venerable discovered the inheritance secret realm marked by our human race, and it is currently being occupied by that Dragon Clan Grand Venerable.”

"After investigation, this Dragon Clan Grand Venerable's strength is below average within their clan. It should be suitable for you to practice with," said Grand Venerable Qingzhu after examining the dragon.

"In that case, I'll treat you to dragon soup after I finish the mission."

After receiving the mission information, Xu Chen told Yang Wanshan and then left the Great Stream Sect Master's world on the Thousand Machine Ship.

They then flew towards the depths of the star sea through the space channels that the human race had established in recent years.

In the vast void, Xu Chen flew through the space passage unique to the human race, at a speed thousands of times faster than before.

Six days later, the Thousand Machine Ship flew out of the human space passage, having reached its end.

"Before going to find that Dragon Clan Grand Master, change your skin first."

As Xu Chen spoke, he transformed into the appearance of a powerful cultivator at the Great Venerable Realm of the Spirit Clan.

The appearance of the Thousand Machine Ship has also been transformed into the shape of the mount of the Great Venerable of the Spirit Clan.

"It just so happens that all the hundred kinds of Great Dao Divine Powers I have learned come from the Divine Source Tower. As long as I use this divine power to kill him and wipe the battlefield clean, even if the Dragon Clan knows that the Spirit Clan is innocent, they will still have to give an explanation."

Thinking of this, Xu Chen's lips curled up slightly.

During his ascension to the Great Luo realm amidst countless rivers, he witnessed firsthand the true nature of the Dragon Clan.

"After killing it, I will take this dragon clan lord back and not let it return to its origin. I will eat its flesh directly."

"Dragon's heart, dragon's liver, and dragon's blood tofu—these are said to be rare delicacies!"

Thinking of this, Xu Chen accelerated the Thousand Machine Ship once again.

Three years later, Xu Chen arrived at the location marked by the mission.

"Break it for me."

Xu Chen, who appeared in the form of a spirit race member, appeared directly in the void and pointed a finger at the location of the secret realm.

"boom!!"

The space of that secret realm shattered, and a giant gap opened up.

"Roar!!"

"who is it!!"

A sound like a dragon's roar rang out, and a giant dragon, hundreds of miles long, flew out from the secret realm of space, glaring angrily in all directions.

"Dragon Clan, our Spirit Clan has been eyeing this secret realm for tens of thousands of years."

"I didn't expect to encounter you instead of the human race. Get lost and don't delay the important affairs of my human race."

Xu Chen looked down at the Great Venerable Realm Divine Dragon.

"Great Venerable of the Spirit Clan, I only call you Fellow Daoist out of respect. If I didn't, what would the Spirit Clan be?"

"A Grand Venerable of the Spirit Race actually speaks to me like that!"

"Get out! This secret realm belongs to my dragon clan!"

"If you're not satisfied, let's fight first!"

The hundred-mile-long azure dragon looked at Xu Chen without fear, its body radiating a dense divine power.

At this moment, a powerful force of the Great Dao has transformed this starry sea into the Void Dragon Realm, a unique divine power of the Dragon Clan.

Being in the Void Dragon Realm increases the dragon race's combat power by 10%.

"I'm already being lenient by telling you to get lost. You're just a little mudfish, like a toad, and you dare to challenge me."

"Come on, let's have a fight!"

Xu Chen's voice became sharp, and he suddenly formed a hand seal.

"The Divine Kingdom of Water and Marsh!"

"Thunderous Pantheon!"

"Kongyou Xiaoyao, seal him off!!"

The Void God immediately unleashed three Great Dao Divine Powers.

In an instant, a divine realm of water and marshland covered the Void Dragon Realm.

Above the divine realm, endless thunder coalesced, and one after another, gods formed from thunder emanated powerful auras.

Xu Chen transformed into his true form as Lei Dao, wielding a Water Thunder Divine Sword.

The combat power displayed by the Spirit Clan Grand Venerable in his avatar greatly surprised the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable on the other side.

Upon first contact, the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable found information about the Spirit Clan Grand Venerable, played by Xu Chen, in his database.

This gave the Dragon Clan Grand Master the courage to start cursing.

"Come on! This won't do today!!"

The gods within the sea of ​​thunder revived and charged toward the hundred-mile-long Dragon Clan Grand Venerable.

Xu Chen, wielding the Water Thunder Divine Sword and standing atop the Watery Divine Kingdom, charged towards the Dragon Clan's Grand Venerable. "Do they really think my Dragon Clan is easy to bully?!"

A set of innate spiritual treasure armor was put on the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable, causing the surrounding water gods to retreat thousands of miles away.

"So what if I bully you!"

"Die to me!!"

Xu Chen slashed with his sword, causing the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable to retreat violently, his dragon tail lashing out at Xu Chen from behind.

"Since you're courting death, don't blame me!"

The scales on the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable suddenly emitted divine light, and the divine runes inscribed on the scales now formed a continuous whole.

Xu Chen nearly severed the tail of the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable with a single sword strike.

But after the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable distanced himself from Xu Chen, Xu Chen suddenly felt the surrounding space begin to thicken, and time began to stretch out.

In Xu Chen's time dimension, the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable recovered from his injuries at an extremely fast speed, and then slammed his final claw towards him.

"You can use the principles of time and space so superficially? You're a disgrace to the dragon race's powerful members."

Lei Dao's true form formed a hand seal with one hand, instantly shattering the surrounding space with lightning, and then used the power of space to smooth out the time difference.

The Water Thunder Sword once again slashed towards the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable.

"Something's wrong! Why are you so strong?!" The Dragon Clan Grand Venerable looked in horror at the water and thunder sword slashing towards him, giving him a feeling that there was no way to avoid it.

With a single sword strike, the dragon scales shattered, and golden dragon blood spilled into the starry sea.

The dragon looked at Xu Chen in disbelief, because this sword strike had actually severed half of his essence.

Based on that one exchange, the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable knew he was no match for Xu Chen, so he decisively ignited his own power and charged towards the outer border of the territory.

"It's too late for you to run now!!"

The endless thunder god statues transformed into living gods and began to besiege the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable.

Although each Thunder God statue only possessed the strength of the Great Luo Realm, their sheer number made up for it, especially with Xu Chen wielding the Water Thunder God Sword as the main attacker.

There are also three great divine powers that seal off the divine realm.

After the Dragon Clan's Grand Master failed to escape the first time, he knew he was doomed.

Just as they were about to use a clan secret technique to report, they discovered that Xu Chen had also sealed off the Myriad Rivers.

"Great Venerable of the Spirit Clan, are you really going to go to such extremes!" the Great Venerable of the Dragon Clan exclaimed sternly.

"Dragon Clan, your clan has occupied such a good place in the main realm for so many years just because of the backing of that ethereal Dragon Clan Ancestor."

"Now it's time to give way! You die first, and then my Spirit Clan will storm into your Dragon Clan's territory. At that time, your Dragon Clan will be nothing more than meat beasts for my Spirit Clan to feast on!!"

Xu Chen, who plays the Great Venerable of the Spirit Clan, speaks with an unusually arrogant tone.

"Tell me, which race are you?"

"The Great Venerable of the Spirit Race wouldn't say something so foolish!"

Before the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable could finish speaking, Xu Chen severed half of the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable's source with a single sword strike.

"Our Eldar's politeness is only for targets that are about to become prey."

“Your dragon race has long been regarded as a dish on the table by our Holy Venerable.”

"Today, even the true spirit will perish here!"

Within the Watery Divine Kingdom, one water beast after another emerged. Then, a sea of ​​lightning descended from the sky, encasing these water beasts in a layer of lightning armor, instantly bringing their combat power to the peak of the Great Luo Realm.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable instantly transformed his dragon mouth into a gigantic maw, swallowing Xu Chen's Thunder Dao Dharma Form whole.

"The Furnace of the Nether Dragon!!"

"Even if you don't die, I'll still skin you alive!" The Dragon Clan Grand Venerable's tone was extremely angry.

"Water and marshland, all things connected!"

Xu Chen used the Watery Divine Kingdom to directly escape from the Nether Dragon Furnace.

"Rise in peace. After you die, I will cook you into a dish of stir-fried dragon liver and offer it to my clan's holy venerable one!"

With each strike of Xu Chen's Water Thunder Sword, the power increased, leaving the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable utterly powerless to retaliate.

When the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable's original power dropped to less than 20%, the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable's expression hardened, and he prepared to self-destruct, but was instantly sealed by Xu Chen.

“I have said that fried dragon liver will appear before my Spirit Clan Holy Lord.”

"You want to self-destruct? No way!"

With a single slash, Xu Chen plunged the Dragon Clan's Grand Venerable into a deep sleep, and then directly annihilated the last remaining source of the Dragon Clan's power.

The true spirit of the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable returned to the River of Myriad Daos, while Xu Chen, carrying the corpse of the Dragon Clan's Great Venerable, erased the cause and effect and returned to the human race.

Within the Azure Bamboo Secret Realm, the Azure Bamboo Grand Venerable looked at the hundred-mile-long corpse of the Dragon Clan Grand Venerable, and especially after seeing the sword wounds on the Grand Venerable's corpse, his expression revealed a look of surprise and delight.

"You now officially possess the combat power of a Grand Venerable." Grand Venerable Qingzhu looked at Xu Chen with satisfaction.

"What do you intend to do with this Dragon Clan Grand Master?"

"I'll send the heart and liver to the four Holy Venerables of the Dragon Clan, and I'll take the rest back to make a full dragon feast."

"Great Venerable One, is there any culinary expert who can become the Great Venerable Dragon Clan's master chef?" Xu Chen suddenly asked.

"Yes, our clan's Grand Master of Food is the strongest culinary expert in the clan. If you entrust it to him, I guarantee that he will bring out the full essence of this Grand Master Dragon."

"Okay, I'll go check on that Grand Master in a bit to see if he's busy."

As Xu Chen spoke, he gently waved his hand and dissected the heart and liver of the hundred-mile-long true dragon.

"I believe that this dragon heart and phoenix liver, when made into a dish, should be worthy of being presented to our clan's Saint Venerable experts," Xu Chen said, looking at the dragon heart and phoenix liver that was as big as a small mountain.

"Of course it's enough. The Human Emperor only brings out ingredients of the Great Venerable level when entertaining distinguished guests."

“I accept your sentiments on behalf of His Majesty the Holy One.”

"And don't forget my share of the dragon meat soup," said Grandmaster Qingzhu with a smile.

"Aren't celestial officials supposed to be immune to bribes?"

"I'm not a celestial official, just someone who manages them," Grand Venerable Qingzhu chuckled.

"Then I'll have to bribe the Great Venerable more often in the future." Xu Chen smiled as he put the hundred-mile-long Great Venerable True Dragon back into his spiritual treasure space.

"Then come on, come on!"

Xu Chen took his leave and, after leaving the Green Bamboo Secret Realm, contacted the Food Venerable and discussed the matter of stewing dragon meat.

To everyone's surprise, the Food Venerable got excited as soon as he heard this and wanted to drop everything to find Xu Chen, but Xu Chen persuaded him to stay, after all, the mission was important.

The Great Stream Sect World, a secret realm.

The Great Venerable Shisheng looked at this hundred-mile-long Great Venerable True Dragon as if a swordsman had seen a fine sword.

"Young Xu, you're amazing! It's rare to see such a complete Dragon Clan Grand Venerable."

"I'm afraid it's not enough for me to prepare a full dragon feast for your entire sect. However, if I add some other ingredients and make a big pot of dragon meat soup, it should be enough for each of your sect's disciples to have a bowl."

"But let me make this clear first: the value of turning it into dragon meat soup is not as high as the cost of reversing the flow of human race's Great Dao fortune," said the Grand Venerable Food Master.

At this moment, Xu Chen thought of the powerful human beings who protected him in the Myriad Rivers of Dao.

“Senior Shisheng, I’ve changed my mind. Our human race has seventy-four Grand Venerables on the surface. How about you prepare a full dragon banquet for 74 tables?”

"We don't need that many ingredients. With such a large dragon, we could make at least ten thousand tables of full dragon banquet. It's a pity we don't have the dragon's heart and liver."

"Then let's prepare 1 tables, with ten tables for each of the Great Venerable experts of the human race, as a way of thanking them for stepping forward when I was undergoing my tribulation," Xu Chen said sincerely. (End of Chapter)
