Primordial Era: From Primordial Human Race to Grand Luo Immortal

Chapter 11. 11. When you see injustice on the road, draw your sword to help.

After leaving Kunlun Mountain, Ji Yuan headed east. The East Sea is extremely far from Buzhou Mountain, and the Lich and Demon races are currently at a truce, so it is unlikely that they will encounter any clashes here.

Of course, Ji Yuan was not afraid. He possessed three top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Although his cultivation level was low, his combat strength was not bad. Moreover, when he left Kunlun, his second senior uncle gave him a magic seal, instructing him to call upon him if he encountered someone he could not defeat.

Yuanshi Tianzun's actions left Ji Yuan somewhat bewildered.

Soon Ji Yuan arrived at the East China Sea. The East China Sea was a magnificent sight, with towering waves and a vast expanse of blue water.

However, the two figures fighting in the distance spoiled the view.

"I said, my dragon clan is in dire need of protection, so how dare I risk the lives of my entire clan to join your demon clan?"

Ao Guang looked at the person from the Demon Court with a grim expression and some confusion. Why couldn't this silly bird understand dragon language?
The one fighting Ao Guang was a member of the Demon Court. His body, which was not perfectly transformed, still had a few feathers on it, making it easy to tell that he was a bird-type demon.

But he chuckled and said, "Your Highness has not witnessed the power of my Demon Court, so how can you draw such a conclusion?"

"If you're so strong, how come you were completely routed by the Witch Clan last time?"

Ao Guang's calm words seemed to strike a chord with the bird demon, causing a flush to rise on its somewhat ugly face.

"How dare you! Take this fork!"

The bird demon, enraged, attacked.

Ao Guang was caught off guard and had to react hastily.

Ji Yuan watched from the side, marveling at the sight.

"Why would the demon race come to the East Sea? And why would they dare to attack the dragon race directly? The dragon race's powerful figures have been defeated, not all of them are dead. Aren't they afraid of getting a beating from the Dragon King?"

Ji Yuan concealed himself and secretly watched from the side, thinking that perhaps the Dragon King was secretly observing from the shadows.

The battle intensified, and Ao Guang gradually lost ground due to the karmic burdens inflicted on the dragon clan during the Dragon-Han Calamity.

Having only cultivated since childhood and daring not to easily make a move, how could he possibly be a match for the battle-hardened demon race?

Although this bird demon, like him, was at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, the Taiyi demon who survived the last Lich War possessed some skill.

The more Ao Guang fought, the more agitated he became. If it weren't for his karmic burdens, how could his dragon clan be so humiliated?

Ji Yuan watched Ao Guang get beaten silently from the side, thinking that although the dragon bloodline was quite pure, the strength was really just average.

Seeing that Ao Guang was about to be defeated, Ji Yuan wondered:
"Is there really no one to protect him? With this level of bloodline concentration, his status must be quite high."

"Never mind, this might be a good opportunity to make contact with the dragons."

Ji Yuan let out a long cry: "Fellow Daoist, I'm here to help you!"

He revealed his form, opened his mouth and spat out a burst of wind and thunder, a divine wind blew and purple lightning trembled, the bird demon's physical body was blown apart, and its primordial spirit was struck by the purple lightning and its soul was scattered.

Even the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Huang Feng, could make him weak and dizzy from the Samadhi Divine Wind. How much more so would Ji Yuan, this upgraded version?

Ao Guang, who was at the center of the battle, felt as if he had just walked on the edge of death, and a few drops of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Ao Guang composed himself, flew to Ji Yuan's side, and respectfully said, "Thank you, fellow Daoist. I am Ao Guang, the Crown Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace."

Upon getting closer, Ao Guang was surprised to find that the feeling of being bound by karma within him seemed to have lessened somewhat.

He hurriedly asked, "I don't know where you come from, fellow Daoist. Your face looks completely unfamiliar to me."

Ji Yuan made a gesture and replied, "I am Ji Yuan, the eldest disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master."

Ao Guang was surprised to hear this: "So you are a disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master. The disciples of a sage are indeed very powerful."

The two chatted for a few more minutes, and Ao Guang invited Ji Yuan to visit the East Sea Dragon Palace to repay Ji Yuan for "saving his life." Ji Yuan readily agreed, as he had already intended to do so, and this was Ao Guang, the future East Sea Dragon King, though currently only a prince.

Ji Yuan, who was well aware of the wealth of the East Sea, might be able to obtain some more treasures.

The man and the dragon happily swam toward the Dragon Palace, unaware that a dark shadow was following them from afar.

They chatted along the way, and Ji Yuan learned that the demon race had sent Bai Ze to invite the dragon race to join the Heavenly Court. The dragon race was already on the verge of extinction, so how could it dare to easily join a force? The demon race originally wanted to take action to force them, but for some reason they withdrew.

Ji Yuan guessed that the demon race lacked enough Great Luo Golden Immortals during the second Lich War, which prevented them from fully utilizing their power in the Zhou Tian Star War. In order to cope with the next war, they had to recruit more Great Luo Golden Immortals.

But how could the demon race know that the powerful dragons who appeared to have perished during the Dragon-Han Calamity were actually still secretly alive? Using forceful methods would only provoke the dragon race to become their enemies.

They chatted all the way and soon arrived at the Dragon Palace.

Upon entering the Dragon Palace, Ao Guang instructed the Turtle Prime Minister to inform his father, the King, and then led Ji Yuan directly to the main hall.

The luxury of this dragon palace far exceeded Ji Yuan's imagination. The floors and walls were made of deep-sea crystal, and every few steps there was a rare luminous pearl for lighting. The roof was made of refined gold.

"What a rich dog."

Upon entering the main hall, a tall, somewhat aged dragon sat on the dragon throne, exuding an astonishing aura and profound Daoist essence.

This dragon is Ao Guang's father, Ao Run.

Ji Yuan muttered to himself, "The Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, this must be the Dragon King of the East Sea."

Ji Yuan sized up Ao Run, and Ao Run naturally noticed Ji Yuan as well.

Even the surging waves of the East China Sea could not describe the turmoil in Ao Run's heart at this moment.

Most dragons cultivate through bloodline, and those with low bloodline concentration find it extremely difficult to advance to higher realms. Ao Run's ability to become the Dragon King naturally stems from his pure bloodline.

Furthermore, each dragon awakens a unique ability when advancing to the Great Luo realm. Ao Run's ability is to see the fate in the dark.

This is also why he is the head of the Four Seas Dragon Kings; when the dragon race is burdened by karma and their future is uncertain, he can usually avoid danger.

In Ao Run's eyes, Ji Yuan's fortune was like a vast, blazing sun, so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at him.

Suppressing his excitement, Ao Run asked, "Long'er, this one..."

"Father, this is..."

Ao Guang explained to Ao Run how he was defeated in a battle against the demon race and was rescued by Ji Yuan, as well as Ji Yuan's background.

Upon hearing this, Ao Run's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Where is Prime Minister Turtle?"

Prime Minister Gui came to Ao Run's side, and Ao Run whispered a few words in Prime Minister Gui's ear.

After saying that, he walked to Ji Yuan's side with a smile on his face:
"So you are a esteemed disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master. To be honest, I have long admired the Tongtian Sect Master. Today, let's drink until we're drunk, let's drink until we're drunk!"

Ji Yuan was filled with doubt and unease:

"What's wrong with this Dragon King? He saved his son, so he doesn't need to be this enthusiastic."

So he quickly said, "Your Highness, drinking is no problem at all. Actually, I came to the East Sea to discuss cooperation with you."

"Oh?"

"Fellow Daoist, please explain in detail."
