Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

"Is the young lady beside you the supreme divine beast, the Dragon Phoenix?"

The True Dragon King's loud voice echoed within the ancient Dragon Palace, and the expressions of Cai Lin and the other girls changed slightly. Could it be that the True Dragon King was plotting something sinister?

"Senior has discerning eyes; Zi Yan is indeed of dragon-phoenix form. May I ask what Senior desires?"

Lin Feng, however, was not flustered at all. Back when Qin Tian, ​​the Demon King, secretly came to the Heavenly Court, he had taken the opportunity to inquire about the personalities of many sacred items in the Great Thousand World.

"You need not panic. The Dragon and Phoenix are supreme divine beasts, and I will not harm them."

The True Dragon King waved his hand and slowly walked up to the group.

"Young lady, would you be willing to become my disciple?"

"Become an apprentice?"

Since entering the Dragon Palace, worried that his unconventional personality might cause trouble for the group, he hesitated for a moment, looking at Lin Feng because of the unnoticed words.

"Zi Yan, Senior True Dragon King is a person of noble character, as Senior Qin Tian has already told me. However, whether or not you choose to become his disciple is your own decision!"

Lin Feng naturally understood why Zi Yan hesitated, and smiled as he spoke.

"Senior True Dragon King is the Supreme Elder of the True Dragon Clan, and can mobilize all resources at will. Moreover, he himself is a late-stage Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign, which will also help your growth."

"Of course, the Heavenly Court is also rich in resources. In a few years, when I advance to the Celestial Supreme Rank, I will be able to truly establish myself in the Great Thousand World."

"You cunning fellow!"

Before Zi Yan could answer, the True Dragon King, standing to the side, was somewhat amused and exasperated.

"There's no need to use Qin Tian to pressure me. However, as Lin Feng said, if Miss Zi Yan is willing to become my disciple, you will have priority access to all the resources of the True Dragon Clan!"

"If the supreme divine beast, the Dragon-Phoenix, were to grow to the late Saint-grade level, its combat power might play a crucial role in the war against the extraterrestrial evil race!"

"Haha, if the young lady doesn't like this old dragon, she could become our disciple!"

Just then, two magnificent beams of divine light rushed straight into the Dragon Palace. After the light dissipated, two gentle-looking figures appeared.

"Grand Elder, Wind King, and Phoenix King."

Just then, Ao Gang's voice suddenly came from outside the Dragon Palace. He was seen rushing towards the place with a hurried expression. Obviously, the two figures had entered without his notice.

After Ao Gang entered the Dragon Palace, he was about to report when he suddenly stopped, only to find that the two of them were already standing inside the Dragon Palace.

"Ao Gang, you can go down now!"

"yes!"

With a slight fist salute, Ao Gang left with a hint of doubt on his face, closing the Dragon Palace gate behind him as usual.

"Wind King, Phoenix King, you two old geezers, didn't you already agree to my bet? Why are you getting involved now?"

The True Dragon King frowned slightly, and his words were rather impolite, as if he was about to curse her.

"You old dragon, you still have this temper after all these years! I may have lost the bet with the Phoenix King, but if this young girl is willing to become our disciple, are you going to stop her?"

"snort!"

"I won't argue with you," the True Dragon King snorted coldly, turning to look at Zi Yan, his expression immediately softening.

"Little Ziyan, what's your decision? If you become my disciple, I can even give you a few spots to soak in the True Dragon Pool!"

"The True Dragon Pool is formed by the combined spiritual power of many true dragons after their deaths. Even a Heavenly Sovereign would find it extremely effective upon entering."

At this point, the True Dragon King seemingly casually glanced at Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor beside Zi Yan.

"If Lin Feng were to enter, he might be able to break through his bottleneck and reach the Celestial Supreme Realm. That's a very real possibility!"

Upon hearing this, Ziyan's large purple eyes darted around, and then she bowed to the True Dragon King without hesitation.

"Master, please accept Ziyan's bow!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

In the end, he did manage to bring the dragon and phoenix under his wing. Even with the shrewdness of a true dragon king, he was so excited that he stroked his beard and laughed heartily.

"Excellent, excellent! My beloved disciple Ziyan, with my full support, your future achievements will surely astound the entire world!"

"Hehe, old man, where is the True Dragon Pool?"

Perhaps sensing that her new master was as generous as the other dragons, Zi Yan's tone immediately changed, as if the true dragons were her own family.

"Hahaha, you little rascal, your temper is just like mine!"

The True Dragon King stroked his beard and laughed at Zi Yan's slightly impolite behavior. Then, with a wave of his hand, a spatial passage appeared within the Dragon Palace.

"Gentlemen, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Dragon Pool of my True Dragon Clan. Please leave!"

"You old codger, you're still as childish as ever!"

The Wind King sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation, then turned to the Phoenix King beside him.

"Fine, since the host wants to kick us out, we can't very well stay here shamelessly. Goodbye, old man!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two transformed into two dazzling beams of divine light and flew swiftly out of the Dragon Palace, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"My beloved disciple Ziyan, and you little ones too, we're heading to the True Dragon Pool now. We'll definitely give you a big surprise!"

As he spoke, the True Dragon King took the lead and entered the spatial passage. Behind him, Lin Feng and the others exchanged glances, all of them able to see the expectation in each other's eyes.

Without further hesitation, he stepped out and headed towards the True Dragon Pool.

"Has that guy already left Heaven?"

Deep within the endless darkness of the earth, dozens of enormous, sky-covering phantoms appeared. Upon closer inspection, one would discover that these beings were not physical entities.

Clearly, this was achieved by using demonic means to project consciousness here.

"My clan has taken action and has already controlled three hundred ants at the Earthly Sovereign level, monitoring the every move of the major defenses throughout the Great Thousand Worlds at all times!"

A massive, pitch-black phantom opened its mouth, its voice like thunder, or like the earth splitting and the sky collapsing, causing endless demonic energy to tremble violently.

"Some time ago, the clan that monitors the Heavenly Court sent back news that the Heavenly Emperor, that little grasshopper, has gone out, and we don't know where he went."

"Holy Heaven, the appearance of the Heavenly Court, and the method of exchanging elixirs for our descendants' demonic bodies, have already posed a threat to the lower-level races. Why don't we devour these ants?"

Another enormous demonic figure spoke, and a thick aura of corpses and demonic energy surged behind it, seemingly bringing the fear of death.

"If those ants of the vast world think that this can weaken my Holy Race, then we can lull them into a false sense of security and thus achieve our plan!"

In the center of the many demonic shadows, a figure engulfed in raging flames spoke.

If Xiao Yan were here, he would surely discover that the flames of this demonic figure were simply the strongest demonic eye in the world, and at the same time, they seemed to exude a hint of holiness.

"Our opponents are the Undying Lord and others; the other little grasshoppers are nothing to fear. Let him jump around for a while longer."

"When the gods awaken, the vast world will become our second homeland. We can even thrive here and one day return to our true homeland!"

"Can!"

"Just as you said!"

"."

Many demonic figures were persuaded by this demonic figure burning with raging flames, and then disappeared from this dark land. In the end, only the huge demonic figure named Holy Heaven remained.

He gazed at the center of the vast world, a strange meaning flashing in his eyes.

"Soon."

Lin Feng was naturally unaware of the plans of the many demonic figures behind the scenes of the Great Thousand Worlds. However, with the Evil God about to be resurrected, the extraterrestrial evil race would definitely not expend too much power at this time.

That would alert many late-stage Great Thousand Saint-level Heavenly Sovereigns, and if this ruined their grand plan, it would be a great loss.

All of this will only happen when a five-colored deity dominates the world and the Heavenly Emperor Sword annihilates everything; only then will these demons feel regret.

"Dragon Dragon Dragon"

Numerous ancient dragons soared through the sky, their roars echoing endlessly, and a mysterious energy reverberated throughout this vast space.

"What does this feeling mean?"

Deep within Lin Feng's soul sea, his soul body, comparable to a Heavenly Sovereign, opened its eyes and carefully sensed the mysterious fluctuations. After a few breaths, it was greatly surprised.

"Hahaha, no wonder you dare to call yourself the Heavenly Emperor, your perception is truly impressive!"

The True Dragon King, who was stepping on the void steps ahead, turned around and obviously noticed Lin Feng's abnormality. Then he stroked his beard and laughed, with endless dragon shadows roaming behind him.

"That's right, the entire vast world is part of the True Dragon Pool!"

"These illusory dragon shadows roaming the heavens and earth are the final resting place of the spiritual power of all the Heavenly Sovereigns of my True Dragon Clan since the beginning of our existence!"

"Over time, a kind of fluctuation began to appear in the world, which we, the later generations of the dragon race, call dragon transformation!"

"Regardless of race, anyone who enters this place will gradually be affected by these fluctuations. Even a Heavenly Sovereign-level expert will be transformed into a true dragon after staying here for several thousand or tens of thousands of years!"

"Of course, the dragon power required would be far too immense; we dragons would not give that opportunity to outsiders!"

Lin Feng and the others nodded in agreement. The loss of using vast dragon power to transform the Heavenly Sovereign of another race into a dragon was enough to give birth to more than one adult true dragon.

If that's the case, it would be a case of losing more than you gain!

"Senior True Dragon King, you should be able to see that my foundation is extraordinary. If I were to break through to the Celestial Supreme level here, the dragon power I would absorb would probably exceed your imagination!"

"Knowing this, why did you still bring me into this True Dragon Pool, senior?"

Even though the benefits were right in front of him, and he would gain tremendous benefits if he pretended not to know, Lin Feng still voiced his doubts.

True powerhouses would obviously disdain such behavior, even though Lin Feng is not yet considered one of the top powerhouses in the Great Thousand World.

However, back in the Dou Qi Continent, he was already the most powerful among all living beings, and even achieved the status of Heavenly Supreme in the lower planes!

As the ruler of a powerful force in this vast world, he naturally possesses his own arrogance!

Even without the power of the True Dragon Pool, relying on the terrifying profits of the Heavenly Court's pills, he can still grow to his peak in just a little time!

"Hahaha, it is precisely because your foundation is extraordinary, even stronger than mine at the Spirit Grade Heavenly Supreme realm, that I must let you enter this True Dragon Pool!"

Hearing Lin Feng's question, the True Dragon King was even happier. Clearly, he saw the aura of a strong person in Lin Feng's seemingly foolish behavior!

"You possess the inheritance of the ancient Heavenly Emperor, so you should know how fiercely we resisted the invasion of our Great Thousand World by the extraterrestrial evil race in ancient times!"

"The existence of the Great Thousand Palace goes without saying. Qin Tian already informed us that we shouldn't make things difficult for you!"

"You also know the origin of the Great Thousand Palace; it was left behind by the Immortal Emperor, the strongest being in the Great Thousand Realms in ancient times!"

"He sacrificed his life to suppress the most powerful extraterrestrial evil god, the Heavenly Evil God, and also set up a grand formation that, with repeated rotations, could obliterate him!"

"Now, just one last push is all it takes to destroy that evil god. Even if the many Heavenly Demon Emperors still exist, we can slowly but surely kill them!"

Many secrets were revealed by the True Dragon King. If what he said is true, the situation in the Great Thousand World should be very good. However, the expression of this supreme dragon king was not very optimistic.

"In the ancient great war, the extraterrestrial evil races never actually used their full strength; the thirty-six major demonic clans didn't even deploy more than half of their forces!"

"If they unleash their full power, the Great Thousand Realms' current strength will likely be insufficient to withstand it. Therefore, we need new comrades to emerge!"

At this point, the True Dragon King stared intently at Lin Feng, then looked at Zi Yan beside him.

"Lin Feng, Zi Yan, you two both have the potential to reach the Saint-level, or even my level."

"That is why I defied all opposition and brought you into the True Dragon Pool, solely to accelerate your growth!"

"When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact?"

"If the world were to perish in the future, what would this small True Dragon Pool mean?"

The True Dragon King turned around and continued walking up the void steps, heading towards the depths of the True Dragon Pool.

"Hahaha, if that's not the case, then what the Wind King and Phoenix King said is quite right; this old dragon isn't exactly a generous dragon!"

Behind them, Lin Feng and the others slowly bowed slightly to the True Dragon King in front of them. Although he did not speak, his dragon whiskers fluttered wildly.

"Let's go. The core of the True Dragon Pool can't be opened without my warrant."

"What a wondrous creation! If I were to elevate it to the Celestial Supreme realm and then devour you, I might even be able to advance to the Saintly Supreme realm myself!"

Within a mysterious little world, a colossal cauldron, ten thousand feet tall, stands in the center. Inside the cauldron, an ancient, ethereal figure stands cross-legged, his body engulfed in raging flames.

Outside the cauldron, a figure dressed in magnificent robes stood there, constantly sprinkling supreme spiritual liquid to maintain the flames burning inside the cauldron.

"In this small lower plane, besides the Heavenly Emperor and many Heavenly Sovereigns, there are such wondrous things. If I have the opportunity, I must take control of that lower plane and study it carefully."

After scattering all the supreme spiritual liquid and elixirs into the cauldron, the mysterious figure inspected the seals that covered the world once more before stepping away.

"Buzz"

The aged figure inside the cauldron seemed to have sensed the departure of that other figure and finally opened its eyes.

"Alas, is being refined into something else entirely for this old man?"

If Lin Feng, Xiao Yan, and the others were here, they would be shocked to discover that the figure being burned and refined by the raging flames inside this cauldron was none other than Dan Yan, the patriarch of the Pill Tower.

And its aura has now reached the Great Perfection of the Supreme Realm. You should know that when it ascended, it had only just consolidated its Dou Di realm.

"I wonder if Lin Feng will be able to learn of my capture through the soul jade tablet?"

With this thought flashing through his mind, Dan Yan immediately shook his head and muttered to himself.

"The being who captured me was far more terrifying than Lin Feng. The Dou Di weapon was shattered by it with a single palm strike, and the attack that Lin Feng left for me was also shattered by it with a backhand strike."

"I hope Lin Feng doesn't find this place. If he gets implicated, it would be my fault!"

Dan Yan closed his eyes helplessly. As the endless flames burned fiercely, countless spiritual herbs were transformed into the purest spiritual power, which was forcibly injected into his body.

At the same time, his aura also rapidly increased, even faintly breaking through the Great Perfection Earthly Supreme realm, reaching a level comparable to a Half-Step Heavenly Supreme.

However, despite being filled with such powerful energy, Dan Yan showed no intention of resisting. The vast array that spanned the world was beyond his ability to move.

"Why"

In the vast northwest, on the ancient continent of the Emperor, lies a land of birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Two middle-aged, refined figures with remarkably similar bearing sat cross-legged on either side of a wooden table, leisurely playing chess.

"Ancestor, I never imagined I would see you again in this vast world!"

One of the middle-aged men spoke first, and if countless beings on the Dou Qi Continent were to see this, they would be astonished to discover that this figure was none other than the ancient clan chief, Gu Yuan.

And who could be called an ancestor by him?

"Hahaha, I never expected this! When I was severely injured by that extraterrestrial demon, I thought I was going to die, but suddenly I sensed the vast world and ascended to immortality!"

The middle-aged figure opposite Gu Yuan took a sip of spiritual tea and then laughed heartily.

"Unfortunately, my talent is limited, and the years have passed too long; I have only reached the realm of a half-step Heavenly Sovereign, ruling as a king in this small place!"

"But you, a descendant, have only been a Dou Di for a few decades and an Ascended to the Great Thousand Realm for a few years, yet you have already reached the realm of a High Earthly Sovereign."

"Perhaps, the first Celestial Sovereign of my ancient race will fall upon you!"

"Hahaha, thank you for the praise, ancestor. However, the first Heavenly Sovereign of our clan was someone else entirely!"

"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it!"

The ancient emperor put down his spirit tea, showing great interest in the person Gu Yuan had mentioned.

"This person does seem to have some connection with me!"

"Stop putting on airs in front of our ancestors! Speak up now!"

The ancient emperor flicked his sleeve, his face showing a hint of anger, but Gu Yuan showed little panic. Instead, he glanced at the torn chessboard between the two with a half-smile.

"What a terrible chess player!"

"Since that's the case, Gu Yuan won't keep you in suspense any longer. This person is none other than my daughter, Xun'er!"
