They Entered Just Like That!
← Ch.1131 | Ch.1133 → |
Ao Meng was extremely enraged, especially when he thought back to all the humiliation he had suffered at An Lin's hands.
"Seeing as you're all recklessly charging to your death, then don't blame me for what I'm about to do!"
He waved a hand and issued a command, "All Return to Void Stage dragons heed my call! Bring down An Lin and his group, dead or alive!"
Only four of the ten Return to Void Stage dragons heeded his call.
The four Return to Void Stage dragons: "???"
Ao Meng's eyes widened as he turned toward the other five Return to Void Stage dragons."What's going on with you guys?"
Ao Qingyu and Ao Mingyu turned to him with aggrieved expressions."Have you forgotten? We all swore dao heart vows."
Ao Meng only came to a realization upon hearing this. He had been too enraged at the sight of An Lin and had forgotten about this.
However, that didn't matter. There were still two Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures, which would be more than enough to take care of An Lin and his group!
The Dragon King then turned toward Ao Xianyu, Lu Zhenhai, and Ao Xiaowu."What are you three doing?"
Ao Xianyu turned expressionlessly toward him."Father, An Lin is not an idiot. After you ran away, he already made me swear a dao heart vow preventing me from being able to attack any members of the Four Nine Immortal Sect..."
Lu Zhenhai: "I'm in the same boat."
Ao Meng's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
He felt like there were ten thousand mythological beasts stampeding through his heart!
"Then Xiaowu, you..." Ao Meng paused momentarily before speaking again.
Ao Xiaowu spoke in a soft and slow voice, "Don't worry, Father, I won't let An Lin push our Dragon Court around..."
Ao Meng heaved a sigh of relief and was just about to continue talking.
"However, I won't actively initiate any battles either. If I get forced to swear a dao heart vow as well, our Dragon Court would be screwed!"
Ao Meng: "..."
His words got stuck in his throat.
An Lin almost burst into laughter upon seeing this. He cracked his knuckles with a friendly smile."So the Dragon Court is only going to send out four people for a sparring match?"
The four Return to Void Stage dragons shuddered upon hearing this, and they silently retreated behind Dragon King Ao Meng before looking up at the sky and whistling nonchalantly, as if nothing had ever happened.
None of the four Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures from the Dragon Court were participating in the battle. Among the four of them, the most powerful one was only at the Return to Void Intermediate Stage. How were they supposed to fight An Lin?
Did they have masochistic tendencies?!
All of them actually valued their lives and were not keen on dying anytime soon!
Ao Meng's face turned purple with fury, and he was grinding his teeth together with such force that it looked like sparks were about to fly.
How had things come to this?
They shouldn't have tried to take that damn mine!
Ao Meng's heart was filled with remorse and rage.
Thus, an impasse ensued.
Ao Xiaowu didn't want to fight, and none of the other powerful beings from the Dragon Court dared to fight.
An Lin wasn't going to initiate a battle either. If Ao Xiaowu decided to retaliate, they would probably be in quite a lot of trouble. There was simply too much risk involved, so it was best to maintain peace for now, even if it was a strained peace.
"Hahaha... Who would have thought that this ritual would be so interesting, unlike all the other times?"
A vast, powerful voice sounded, unintentionally sending soundwaves hurtling through the air, which swept up massive waves within several dozen kilometers in radius.
Mythological Beast Ba Xia raised its head with a smile, and the ravine-like wrinkles on its face crinkled up with amusement.
It had clearly thoroughly enjoyed spectating this exchange.
"Alright, it is time for the ritual to begin. All qualified Dragon Tribe successors may travel to the Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain in order to pay respects to the Dragon Tribe ancestors, " Ba Xia announced.
Boom!
A semi-transparent blue halo began to appear. This was an enchantment barrier set up by Ba Xia.
At the same time, a blue, rippling gate of light appeared in front of the divine mountain.
An Lin and the others had already learned from the information presented by Bei Lian that this door of light was responsible for separating those who were qualified to enter the divine mountain from those who didn't. If you were able to enter through the gate of light, it indicated that you were a successor who had been acknowledged by the Dragon Tribe ancestors.
"Let's go!" Ao Meng repressed his fury and shot a glance at An Lin and the others before flying with the rest of the Dragon Court cultivators toward the gate of light in a V-shaped formation.
An Lin and the others looked at one another before trailing along behind them.
One Dragon Court cultivator after another passed through the gate of light.
A dangerous light flashed in Ao Meng's eyes when he caught sight of An Lin and his group approaching them."Hehe... Sect Leader An Lin sure is brave. To think you would dare to let Xiao Ze enter the divine mountain alone. We'll be sure to present a warm welcome to him..."
A faint smile appeared on Xiao Ze's face, which bore not even the slightest hint of nerves.
He swaggered toward the gate of light."Hey, that little Dragon King brat over there, I'll have to teach you a lesson if you piss me off in there!"
"Who are you calling a little brat?!" Ao Meng's eyes were burning with fury.
"I'm referring to you." Xiao Ze did not back down in the slightest.
All of the Return to Void Final Stage Dragon Court mighty figures had already sworn vows. None of the other Return to Void Stage mighty figures would even be able to put a scratch on him...
Xiao Ze entered the enchantment barrier with no problems whatsoever.
"You're all alone here. I have countless ways to make you suffer on the Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain." A cruel smile appeared on Ao Meng's face.
However, right at this moment, a woman in a jade dress passed through the gate of light and arrived beside Xiao Ze.
All of the Dragon Court cultivators were rooted to the spot in shock.
"You... How did you get in here?" Ao Mingyu exclaimed.
"Senior Ba Xia, is there... something wrong with the gate of light?" Ao Meng murmured as he turned to look at Ba Xia.
Ba Xia couldn't even be bothered to offer a response. Instead, it looked off into the distance as if it hadn't heard anything.
This was a Dragon Tribe restricted area, and no cultivator could enter this area unless they had the Dragon Tribe bloodline within their body. This was something even Ba Xia couldn't change as this was a rule established by their ancestors!
However, this human woman was able to entire despite that!
That's right, she was Xu Xiaolan of the Four Nine Immortal Sect!
"She was able to enter Ba Xia's enchantment barrier, which means that she has been acknowledged by the ancestors. Could it be..." Ao Meng's pupils contracted.
A thought suddenly occurred to him.
Xu Xiaolan was a Vermilion Bird Sect disciple...
A series of memories that the old Dragon King had repressed for countless years resurfaced in his mind, and his breathing suddenly accelerated.
"Just who are you?" a Dragon Tribe mighty figure interrogated.
Xu Xiaolan completely ignored them.
She stood silently beside Xiao Ze with a tranquil expression on her face. Her Jade Barley Ink Garment fluttered in the breeze, framing her lithe and graceful figure. She was like a proud holy maiden with unquestionable prestige and majesty radiating from her body.
From an objective perspective, she was actually related to all of the powerful beings from the Dragon Court here.
However, she was not going to admit to this.
Unless Ao Xiaowu wanted to kill her...
That's right, that was the agreement she had made with An Lin.
Otherwise, An Lin would not have been willing to allow Xu Xiaolan to enter the Dragon Tribe restricted area with Xiao Ze.
"Xiaolan really was able to enter! Let me try!" Tina made her way forward before crashing into the enchantment barrier with a splat.
"Haha, Little Na, you're not a Dragon Tribe cultivator!" A faint smile appeared on An Lin's face as he reached for Tina.
All of a sudden, his hand accidentally crossed through the gate of light as if there were nothing there.
An Lin: "???"
An Lin felt like there was something amiss here.
He extended his other into the gate of light to find that it wasn't repelling him.
A bold thought suddenly occurred to An Lin.
He took a deep breath before making his way toward the gate of light.
Three seconds later, An Lin appeared beside Xu Xiaolan and Xiao Ze, scratching his head with confusion.
All of the Dragon Court and Four Nine Immortal Sect powerful beings were completely dumbstruck!
