Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 384 Ganesha's Bloodline

Time flew by and the day of the royal sacrifice was fast approaching.

Yi Jun successfully infiltrated the priestly ranks of the Qing Shi Royal City.

These days, he has been involved in all aspects of the sacrificial ceremony, using several spirit swords to figure out the various formations, items, and steps involved.

Not only in Qing Shi Royal City, but also in the other nine royal cities, Yi Jun had some True Spirit Longswords control one or two priests to steal knowledge related to the royal sacrificial rituals.

After fully understanding the information he had obtained, Yi Jun roughly knew the purpose of this royal sacrifice ceremony.

Simply put, this is a traction ritual that connects to an unknown space in the void, aiming to draw down some kind of being or energy from that unknown space. It is not the primordial energy that is being drawn down.

The rituals in other royal cities serve a normal guiding function, but the rituals in the Bluestone Royal City have something extra: teleportation ability.

This teleportation ability is not normal long-distance teleportation within the world, but rather teleportation to other places deep in the void.

As for information about the path to immortality, Yi Jun found no trace of it.

Through the history of the Bluestone Royal City, he knew that the lifespan of a fifth-order Grand Priest was only about ten thousand years, which was longer than the three thousand years of lifespan of the ancient human cultivators who had reached the Nascent Soul stage, but it had nothing to do with immortality.

As for the sixth-tier Celestial Being, Yi Jun could sense him with his spiritual treasure sword, but he couldn't find his exact location. The entire Qing Shi Ancient City was filled with his aura, but he couldn't find him anywhere in the royal city.

Just when Yi Jun thought that the sixth-order Celestial Phenomenon would not appear until the start of the Royal Sacrifice Ceremony, he unexpectedly discovered that the sixth-order Celestial Phenomenons from the other nine royal cities all appeared in the Bluestone Royal City.

As the nine sixth-tier beings appeared, the sixth-tier Celestial Being from Qing Shi Royal City also appeared in the central temple of Qing Shi Royal City. This appearance was very abrupt, unlike the kind of appearance that is hidden in a secret realm space. It was as if countless energies suddenly condensed and merged to appear.

The gathering of ten sixth-tier Celestial Phenomena Kings in the Azure Stone Royal City made Yi Jun realize that this royal sacrifice ceremony in the Azure Stone Royal City was not so simple. At least, according to the information he had gathered, the previous royal sacrifice ceremonies seemed to have been held in one of the royal cities, while the other nine royal cities had not shown any unusual activity, nor had any sixth-tier Celestial Phenomena Kings appeared.

Yi Jun slowly approached the Holy Temple. Each of the sixth-order Celestial Phenomena carried an aura of longevity similar to Yang Xiaoli's. The knowledge of the Great Dao of Longevity was probably contained within these ten people.

Before Yi Jun could do anything, he noticed that as the ten Celestial Kings gathered at the Holy Temple, a large number of powerful demons who had transformed into Celestial Humans also appeared in the Blue Stone Royal City.

In fact, it's not just the powerful members of the demon race.

At this moment, three equally tall Celestial Beings blocked Yi Jun's path. The leader of the three Celestial Beings looked at Yi Jun and said calmly:
"Human cultivators from the Frozen Continent, I never expected that you would not only run rampant in the Thunderous Abyss, but also come here."

Yi Jun looked at the three celestial beings before him and quickly discerned their background. He immediately raised an eyebrow.
"True dragons, how dare you appear before me in such a form? Aren't you afraid I'll attack you?"

For the first three years, he and Yi Yan searched for an unknown amount of time but did not find a single true dragon that could change its form. Suddenly, three true dragons appeared before him in the form of celestial beings.

The leader of the celestial beings said expressionlessly:

Do you think I'm like Ao Luoshui, a true dragon that hasn't reached adulthood?
Don't think that just because you killed an immature yellow dragon, you can easily defeat a real dragon.

Besides, do you really think that the art of transformation has such a big flaw?

If the art of transformation truly puts our dragon race in danger, why would we use such a technique for an extended period of time?

Yi Jun's Great Dao Golden Core circulated, and the arrays and Golden Core structures within the sword tombs began to analyze the three true dragons before him.

In the blink of an eye, he calculated that of the three true dragons before him, two of them, although weaker than when they were in their true dragon forms, were not so weak that he could easily control them. In fact, the celestial human forms of these two true dragons were even stronger than the Dao-Merging True Immortals he had encountered in the Northern Mountain Spirit Realm.

As for the leading true dragon, all information was concealed, and the various sword tombs of the Great Dao Golden Core cultivators could not even detect a trace of its aura.

The true dragon standing on the left frowned slightly as he looked at Yi Jun and said sarcastically:
“In the past, the Vast Ocean Spirit Realm was the breeding ground for our dragon race. The demon races within the realm dared not attack our dragon race, and true dragons like the Nine-Headed Dragon and the Old Ice Dragon, who were at odds with our Four Seas Dragon Palace, would not attack underage true dragons.”

That's why there are true dragons like Ao Luoshui who have very little combat experience before reaching adulthood.

Thanks to you extraterrestrial humans, there are no longer any lazy, waiting-to-come-of-age true dragons in the Vast Ocean Spirit Realm.

"If the timing weren't so bad, I would show you right now that the True Dragon race, which dominates the void, is not something you ant-like races can compare to."

Yi Jun ignored the true dragon and only looked at the leading true dragon. Among the three true dragons, this one had an extremely deep and unrevealed aura, which was probably no less than that of the nine-headed dragon.

"Which prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace are you?"

"Ao Jiutian".

Yi Jun's eyes flickered.
"The Crown Prince of the East Sea, a golden dragon known for possessing the most powerful offensive divine ability to cleave through the nine heavens and ten earths?"

Ao Jiutian smiled slightly and looked at Yi Jun.

"You also have the metal element, and your supernatural abilities are focused on slashing and sharpness. I believe that we will soon be able to witness each other's supernatural abilities. By the way, I advise you not to approach the Holy Temple right now. Although the Celestial Kings are only at the sixth rank, each of them is no less powerful than an adult true dragon."

After Ao Jiutian finished speaking, he left with the two true dragons.

Yi Jun stared at the other person's retreating figure, lost in thought.

This Ao Jiutian is rumored to be even more powerful than the Four Dragon Kings in terms of attack, and his overall strength is not much inferior to that of the Dragon Kings.

Because it is the spirit realm of the vast sea, it is one of the longest-living true dragons besides the Four Seas Dragon Kings and the Old Ice Dragon, and its lifespan is much longer than that of the Nine-Headed Dragon.

Yi Jun never expected that he would actually encounter the Crown Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace, who was rumored to be wandering in the void, here.

If it came to fighting Ao Jiutian, Yi Jun was still aware of his own limitations. Let alone Ao Jiutian being a Great Dao Golden Core cultivator, even if he were a Great Dao Nascent Soul cultivator, he would most likely still be unable to win. Even with the Heavenly Emperor Sword, it wouldn't be enough.

"However, even if we can't defeat Ao Jiutian, we can find an opportunity to take some of his dragon blood from the two female true dragons beside him."

But what exactly is this Celestial Clan hiding that even a true dragon of Ao Jiutian's caliber has come here?

He didn't attack me directly; clearly, in his view, the royal sacrifice that was about to take place here was more important than killing me.

It seems Yi Ling knows something.

Yi Jun thought about it and still didn't contact Yi Ling.

Yi Ling didn't say anything before, probably because she didn't want him to compete for the opportunity. If he asks now, and the other party doesn't want to talk about it, it might cause resentment.

"Forget it, it'll only take two or three days. Let's see what secrets this royal sacrifice holds."

Yi Jun shook his head, feeling that Yi Ling's personality had changed after receiving the memories of a hundred lifetimes. Was he, Yi Jun, such a petty person?
Yi Jun glanced at the temple, then turned and left.

the other side.

After Ao Jiutian and his two companions entered a palace in Qing Shi City, one of his companions said:
"Do we really not need to deal with the human race?"

Before Ao Jiutian could speak, the true dragon that had previously mocked Yi Jun said:
"These extraterrestrial humans, known as the Modern Cultivators, each possess a vast magical space containing countless warships and other spiritual treasures."

You know the situation in the Thunder Abyss, right? The battle there has been going on for three years, and the sheer number of warships hasn't decreased. Apart from the Thunder Dragon, all the other demonic beasts and sea monsters in the Thunder Abyss have either been wiped out or migrated.

I heard that the seventh-tier whale king of the Thunder Whale clan was directly killed by eight sixth-tier demonic beasts and countless warships.

Thunder Dragon's offspring were also mostly killed.

In its rage, the Thunder Dragon used almost all its strength. However, even though it was able to fight the Dragon King in the Thunder Abyss, it still couldn't defeat the three humans who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage of the Great Dao. It could only watch helplessly as one of the humans extracted the essence of the Heavenly Thunder from the Thunder Abyss to advance to the Golden Core stage of the Great Dao.

On the Frozen Continent, the Yi family has not passed down a complete cultivation lineage. The Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators who can appear in the East Sea are almost all important members of the Yi family.

"That Great Dao Golden Core cultivator, if I'm not mistaken, should be Yi Dong's first son, Yi Jun, who possesses a metal-attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root."

The East Sea Dragon Clan secretly sent many humans to the Frozen Continent. Almost every immortal city on the Frozen Continent had human spies from the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Yi Dong did not deliberately hide the news about the Yi family. Mortals who came from the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm knew more or less about the Yi family.

Therefore, the East Sea Dragon Palace also knew about the power structure of the Yi family. Just like their Dragon Palace, apart from Yi Dong's Daoist partner and his children, the other members of the Yi family were not important at all.

In other words, almost all of the Yi family's resources were concentrated on Yi Dong's family. One can imagine how many war machines these people possessed within their magical space.

Ao Jiutian nodded and said:
"The moment I saw him, I knew that this person was even more troublesome than Yi Yan, who had nine true spirits and countless unicorns."

Because this person's supernatural powers concealed countless magical treasures and spiritual swords, including one spiritual sword that even made me somewhat wary.

If a fight really breaks out here, we won't be able to take him down in a short time.

In a battle, the Blue Stone Royal City might be unharmed, but the royal sacrificial ceremony would likely be disrupted.

A Celestial King may appear once every ten thousand years, but a Celestial God may only be born once every hundred million years.

The Four Dragon Kings and the Old Ice Dragon all obtained the bloodline of the Elephant God, which must be of immeasurable benefit to their advancement to Dragon King.

Before the bloodline of Ganesha, everything else can wait.
