Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

The Crystal Palace wailed in despair as these two destructive forces collided. Huge dragon pillars collapsed in swathes, and jagged cracks appeared in the dome.

Countless low-level aquatic soldiers and generals were pulverized by the dissipating shockwaves before they could even scream, or were instantly frozen into ice shards, or corroded into a pool of green water by the poisonous mist.

A hint of approval seemed to flash in the cold vertical pupils of the Ancestral Dragon's Will, and then, the massive dragon body suddenly swung its tail.

This time, it was no longer a pure defense. On the dragon's tail, the four-colored divine light merged perfectly, condensing into a terrifying bolt of lightning that tore through the eternal chaos.

Wherever the bolt of lightning passed, space vanished silently like fragile glass, revealing the violent and chaotic spatial currents that followed.

This strike contained the supreme power resulting from the fusion of the four seas' origins, carrying the judgment of the Ancestral Dragon to obliterate all rebellion.

The nine heads of the nine-headed worm simultaneously emitted terrified screams. It sensed a deadly threat.

An indescribable, terrifying explosion engulfed the entire core of the Crystal Palace. A light more blinding than the sun devoured everything. The massive dome shattered completely, like a fragile eggshell.

Amidst this apocalyptic scene, the enormous dragon body of the Nine-Headed Insect was struck hard by the chaotic bolt of lightning, producing a teeth-grinding sound of its shell shattering.

The enormous insect body flew backward like a meteorite, crashing heavily onto the ruins of the Crystal Palace, stirring up a cloud of murky water and dust.

Nezha, who had been swept away by the shockwave and struggled to crawl out of the rubble, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and his eyes blazed with wild joy.

Ao Bing leaned on his halberd, his chest heaving violently, staring intently at the direction where the Nine-Headed Insect had fallen.

Even Ao Ping on the dragon throne, whose eyes had remained unchanged for ages, seemed to have a faint ripple passing through them.

However, at the very moment when the dawn of victory was breaking, and when everyone's attention was focused on the severely wounded Nine-Headed Insect.

Two long-planned, insidious murderous intentions, like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, suddenly bared their deadly fangs.

The target was none other than the Jade Dragon Prince, the White Dragon, who was watching from the sidelines. And the ones who made the move were none other than the Myriad Saints Dragon King and his daughter.

The old dragon king, who had been following the nine-headed insect like a shadow and seemed fearful and cowardly, now showed no fear on his face, only a kind of almost insane, desperate gamble.

His eyes burned with the flames of ambition and a ruthless determination to burn his bridges. A strangely shaped short dagger had appeared in his hand without his knowledge.

The dagger was entirely black, neither gold nor wood, and its blade was wreathed in wisps of chilling, foul black energy, emanating a dense aura of ominousness and curse. It was clearly the Western Buddhist secret weapon, the Divine Dagger for Breaking the Law and Defilement, specifically designed to break through the protective energy of immortals and gods, and to taint the very source of defilement.

The Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints let out a fierce hoot like an owl, his figure transforming into a twisted black shadow, moving at an incredible speed, rushing straight towards the little white dragon.

At the same time, Princess Wansheng, that incomparably charming dragon girl, no longer showed any trace of fragility on her face.

Her eyes were now filled with cold calculation and a twisted madness. She formed a strange lotus mudra with her hands in front of her chest, her fingertips wreathed in golden light, and she rapidly chanted obscure incantations.

An invisible and intangible golden ripple, yet carrying a powerful spiritual allure and corrosive force, spread out like a water rippling, precisely enveloping the little white dragon who had just stood up.

"Third Prince, do I look beautiful?"

Her voice seemed to possess a strange magic, penetrating deep into the soul, attempting to shatter Ao Lie's will and drag him into an abyss of illusion. This was a bewitching chant, a secret technique of Western Buddhism, designed to strike when the mind is most agitated and defenses are weakest.

Ao Run was completely focused on maintaining the Western Sea Golden Position, his dragon essence nearly depleted. Suddenly seeing his son in danger, he couldn't help but cry out in alarm. This also caused his enormous true dragon body to show signs of collapse.

This startled Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, who hurriedly reminded Ao Run, "Third brother, don't be distracted. The Nine-Headed Insect is not truly dead and could launch an even more ferocious counterattack at any moment."

"With Ao Bing and the others there, there's absolutely no chance of anything going wrong with Little White Dragon. Quickly regain your composure, or the Four Seas Divine Dragon Formation will collapse."

Ao Run snapped out of his daze and immediately focused all his attention on the great formation. He no longer cared about whether his son was in danger.

Even with the presence of Master Taiyi and his two disciples, the Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints couldn't possibly harm the White Dragon.

Moreover, Ao Ping was sitting on the dragon throne, so how could he just stand by and watch his grandson be assassinated?

Sure enough, just as the Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints was about to reach the White Dragon, a streak of light struck him directly in the chest.

Before the Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints could react, his entire body was smashed backward by the Qiankun Ring and finally crashed into the rubble of the Crystal Palace.

Princess Wansheng, who was trying to seduce the White Dragon, was tightly bound by Nezha's Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon). To prevent her from making a sound, the Hun Tian Ling even gagged her.

Immediately afterward, Ao Bing swung his halberd, striking Princess Wansheng directly in the chest, sending her to join her father, the Dragon King Wansheng.

At that moment, the nine-headed worm's enormous body reacted again. It began to expand continuously, growing many times larger than before in the blink of an eye.

Throughout it all, Ao Ping remained seated on the dragon throne, observing everything silently, like a bystander. Even when the entire Crystal Palace was reduced to rubble, Ao Ping did not move an inch.

Seeing the Nine-Headed Insect's enormous body expand once more, a glint flashed in Ao Ping's eyes, and he muttered to himself.

"I understand now. So this is where the Dragon Clan's opportunity lies. No wonder my four sons have been unable to break through."

At this moment, Ao Ping already knew why the Four Seas Dragon Kings could not break through, but he did not speak to remind them.

After all, some things require personal understanding and realization. Only what you experience and understand yourself truly belongs to you.

The Four Dragon Kings had already witnessed the changes in the Nine-Headed Insect. They then began to summon the essence of the four seas, causing the dragon body, which carried the will of the Ancestral Dragon, to grow larger.

Unfortunately, the increase in the dragon's body was far from enough to catch up with the nine-headed worm. Seeing that the nine-headed worm was about twice the length of the dragon's body, Ao Guang couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.

Just then, he suddenly saw the dragons from all the water veins of the primordial world. At that moment, a bold idea arose in his mind.

“My three brothers, it seems that only by gathering the power of the entire primordial water veins to enhance the power of the Four Seas Divine Dragon Formation can we completely subdue this nine-headed worm.”

As soon as Ao Guang said this, the other three Dragon Kings nodded in unison and said the same thing.

"Brother, that's exactly what I was thinking too." (End of Chapter)
